"Seriously, we're doing this? I'm cool with it, but you two are legends beyond Uma Musume!"
"Legend, huh?♪ You're the undefeated record-breaker, streaming no less."
"Fair point. Let's do it, Granny."
"It's fine, and A-chan works too, okay?"
"McQueen'd kill me for that…"
The Pokémon battle went five rounds. Asama's shiny Iono-powered headband Tinkaton smashed Speed's Garganacl with a counter Gigaton Hammer, clinching three wins. But now, the real reason for the summons begins.
"Camera's set, PC's good, comment tablet's ready… We're really battling on stream?"
"Sounds fun, right, A-chan?♪"
"I'll win again, Su-chan.♪"
So tight… Rampage feels a familiar edge in Speed's voice, digging through her memory.
"(Not Tanaka… not Hayashibara… not Kikuko-neesama…)"
"By the way, A-chan, what's up with that vulgar pest you mentioned?"
"Caged. Just waiting to lure and—crush."
"Then I'm in. I really like that kid."
The room chills. Rampage glances back, regretting it. Asama and Speed radiate crushing pressure.
"They insult our grandkids? No mercy, even if they're your kin."
"They're the insult to our name. I'll erase them. Time for some fun."
"Vulgar pests always crawl out. Can't let the young ones handle it."
Their words quake the room, pulling all into their domain. That voice…
"(…Balalaika. Haman-sama and Balalaika? Those pests are done…) Ready to start?"
"Go for it!♪"
"All good."
Their instant shift to cheery—wild. Here we go… Rudolf and crew'll probably grill me back at school…
"Ohakonhallo!! World records, tyrants, undefeated Tiaras—legends run on! Who inherits it? Me, Rampage!! Y'all been good?"
Just bring the energy. Wonder if Gold Ship'll take over this channel someday.
"Today's a special edition!! This channel's for Tresen's charm, but personal streams are fair game~ So, we're at the Mejiro estate! Broadcasting from here!! Got killer guests, as always, but this time? Insane!!"
Your past guests were plenty wild…
Symboli Rudolf, Mr. CB, Maruzensky, Spica's Okino…
Palmer and Helios too, right?
Calling legends left and right!
"Nah, this is next-level. Let's bring 'em out!!"
"Ohakonhallo! Know me? Rudolf's granny, Speed Symboli!"
"Likewise, Rampage's granny, Mejiro Asama."
Huh?
HUH?
WHAT?
First Arc de Triomphe challenger!?!
"HAAAA!!"
Tresen allows hallway sprints—within limits. One Uma Musume blows past them, racing like it's a track. She bursts into the student council room.
"Hey, Rudolf!!"
Rudolf and Ramone, working as usual, frown at the rude entrance.
"You know where that jerk Rampage is!?"
"Sirius, what's with you? 'Jerk' is harsh, even for her."
"Who cares!! Ramone, you know!?"
"She said Granny called her."
"Dammit, that's it!! Look at this!!!"
Sirius, usually brash, is a mess—pale, frantic. Something big. She shoves her phone at them.
"Yo, chat's exploding~! Sonic Symboli, 30k superchat, wild!!"
"You know my racing days? Sweet~"
"This one's about Granny!"
"Meguro Cup, thanks! Keep it chill, folks."
""GRANNY!?!?""
Rudolf and Ramone's screams echo. Sirius would normally tease, but she flipped on Rampage's stream on a whim and saw Granny. No room to judge.
"What's happening, Ramone!? Why're Asama and my granny on Rampage's stream!? They're tight, sure, but why!?"
"No clue!! Ran just said Granny summoned her!! For this!?"
"No way Granny'd wanna stream!! That idiot must've roped her in!!"
"I'm jealous, A-chan. Your grandkids like McQueen visit, right? Mine hold back. I just want their love~"
"You're busy too, but I'm grateful for mine."
"Chairwoman and Sirius-senpai might find Su-chan intimidating~ She's epic."
"Su-chan!?"
"That jerk's calling her what!?"
"Ran-chan…"
Grannies just wanna be loved…
Haven't hung with my grandparents much since growing up…
"I'd love to be spoiled~"
"I'll spoil you instead, Su-chan!"
"Aww, Ran-chan's so sweet~♪"
"Su-chan's ticklish~♪"
"Su-chan, she's my grandkid. Behave."
This is the longest-reigning Twinkle Series Uma Musume…?
Just a playful granny…
A battle-hardened legend…
Is this okay? Rudolf and Sirius might faint.
Forget them, every Mejiro Uma Musume's collapsing!
"""…"""
Already half-dead. McQueen and crew too.
"Oh, can I invite Rudolf next time?"
"Sure, Su-chan!"
"Fun idea! A-chan, I pick your escort, you pick mine, and we stream together!"
"That's wild! If schedules align, I'm in."
"This is nuts lol, 3200m turf-level chaos lol!!"
Stop it!!
Public execution vibes lol
More!!
Rudolf with cute Su-chan!?
Ramone, please!!
Panicked Sirius, yes!!
"Huh!? This is bad!! We gotta stop it now!!"
"Right!! Ramone!!"
"Calling a car!!"
"What a ride… Now, my usual Uma-tter Pokémon battle corner!! But today's foes? Granny and Su-chan!! OG players since Gen 1—tough!!"
For real!? We can battle!?
Facing an Arc challenger!?
Asama-san!! I wanna fight!!
Uma Musume and Pokémon are different worlds. I can win here!!
I'm hyped!!
"We're still a hit, huh?"
"Getting fired up!♪"
A chaotic Pokémon battle ensued. Then—
"C'mon, Sirius, Rudolf, smile!♪"
"Y-Yeah, Granny…"
"Haha…"
"Ramone, scoot closer or Palmer's out of frame."
"Y-Yes…"
"Why's this happening…?"
"Ran… I'm holding a grudge…"
"I'm thrilled! Group photo with everyone!♪"
"Ardan's got the spirit! Me too!♪"
"Alright, screenshot time!!"
The stream ends with a group shot: Rudolf, Sirius, Ramone, McQueen, Ryan, Palmer, and a surprise Ardan. A future Uma Musume inheriting the channel would say:
"I go wild, but she's untouchable. Still, Gold Ship's my buddy and always down, so I'm the real champ, right?"
