Uma Musume Gets First New Tazuna Shibukawa SSR Support Card in Five Years
Tazuna Shibukawa's first SSR support card since the game's launch signals a significant update for a character who has been absent from high-rarity support for years, making her a key pull for players tackling the new training scenario.
Reporting from 2 sources: Game Spark, Inside.
Cygames announced a new SSR support card for Tazuna Shibukawa in Uma Musume Pretty Derby, the first such card for the character in about five years. The card, titled SSR [Ippai no Nostalgia] Tazuna Shibukawa, will appear in a support card gacha starting June 29. It is a scenario link card for the new training scenario Irasshai! Tracen Ken! ~On-gaeshi, Hajimemashita~, and the sources describe it as an essential card for that scenario. The same gacha period introduces a new training Uma Musume, ★3 [Manpuku Ryuuyuuden・Chou] Narita Top Road, wearing a Chinese dress-style costume inspired by ramen. Another SSR support card, [Sono Shyuunen wa Dotou ga Gotoku] Meisho Doto, also debuts in the same gacha. Cygames also teased a future new costume for Fine Motion, not part of this gacha. Uma Musume Pretty Derby is available on smartphones and PC via DMM Games and Steam.
The new training scenario Irasshai! Tracen Ken! ~On-gaeshi, Hajimemashita~ is the thematic anchor for this update. Both new SSR support cards-Tazuna Shibukawa's [Ippai no Nostalgia] and Meisho Doto's [Sono Shyuunen wa Dotou ga Gotoku]-are scenario link cards, meaning they provide bonuses specifically within that scenario. The sources note that Tazuna's card is considered a must-have for the scenario, which explains the five-year gap since her last SSR, [Youkoso, Tracen Gakuen e!], which was available at launch. Narita Top Road's new ★3 variant, [Manpuku Ryuuyuuden・Chou], wears a ramen-themed Chinese dress, and the ramen motif extends to the teased Fine Motion costume, which was shown as a future addition outside this gacha. The gacha period begins June 29 at 12:00 JST. Both Inside and Game Spark report the same details, with no disagreement between the sources.
