It’s been quite some time coming, but Yukino Bijin has finally been added to the roster, after making several appearances in events and stories of other girls. So let’s see how she stacks up against the rest.

Despite her rather ordinary appearance, Yukino Bijin appears to be a fairly competent leader who excels in the mile and medium distance tracks. She gets arguably the best acceleration ability in the form of Non-stop Girl. Yukino Bijin also has decent training bonuses in speed and guts. Interestingly enough, because of her high aptitude in dirt, you can also choose to run Yukino Bijin in those tracks as well. With the upcoming Champions Meeting being dirt-favoured, who knows, Yukino Bijin might be the dark horse so to speak. That said, she doesn’t seem like she will be shaking the meta up a whole lot, but she would be rather dependable for most use cases.

Uma Musume: Pretty Derby is currently available on Android and iOS for mobile, and DMM Games for the PC.
