An Umamusume player has gone viral after finally achieving one of the game’s most punishing feats, winning the Arima Kinen Champions Meeting with Haru Urara after five years.

In Umamusume Pretty Derby, the Arima Kinen Champions Meeting is widely regarded as endgame PvP. The PvP race demands near-perfect builds as poor positioning, bad skill timing, and lackluster stamina management can instantly end a run. 

Because of this, the meta heavily favors elite long-distance runners who have strong growth rates, powerful, unique skills, and reliable late-race consistency. However, one fan has achieved the impossible: winning the Champions Meeting event with Haru Urara

To reflect her real-world counterpart, Umamusume devs intentionally made it difficult for Haru Urara to win races. She has weak base stats for long distance, poor growth, and her kit offers little room for error. 

So, outside of the odd joke race, she is rarely seen running in the game’s Champions Meeting matches. Coming in first place in a PvP 2500m race with Haru Urara alone requires exceptional optimization, a deep understanding of race mechanics, favorable but tightly managed RNG, and sustained persistence. 

However, after five years, that’s exactly what one player has done, posting their hard-earned victory for the community to see. 

“It arrived… it finally arrived!! For five years, I kept challenging the Arima Kinen Champions Meeting in Umamusume with a single ace Haru Urara. And finally. Finally!! This is what it means to win with your favorite!!!! This is what it means to never give up,” they said via a viral post. 

“Over and over and over again, I kept taking Urara as my solo ace into the Arima Kinen Champions Meeting. Every time, I failed to reach the top. I cried more than once. But even then, I never stopped challenging it. I never gave up until the very end!!”

Just like the real-life Haru Urara, who became famous for her refusal to quit, this Umamusume fan’s dedication and love for the “shining star of losers everywhere” has finally paid off, giving Haru Urara the win she deserves.
