I'm new to this franchise, I haven't watched anything about it but I definitely want to watch the latest movie (Beginning of a New Era): https://myanimelist.net/anime/57647/Uma_Musume__Pretty_Derby_-_Shin_Jidai_no_Tobira, it looks pretty good and now I'm interested about this franchise.

But I've read that it's better to watch the 4 episodes ONA first (Road to the Top) before watching the movie (Beginning of a New Era) and that's what I will do, but I see that Road to the Top also has a movie that is a compilation of the 4 ONAs.

So, should I start watching the 4 episodes ONA or should I watch the Road to the Top movie instead?

@deg I see, I will go with the 4 episodes ONA then.

I saw a tiny bit of the latest movie and the race looked pretty fucking awesome, and now I'm interested in this franchise, can't believe I never heard about this anime before.

@deg This anime broke the record for the most BD sales? interesting, now I'm getting even more hyped up!

https://www.reddit.com/r/UmaMusume/comments/1i5c8vd/should_i_start_with_the_road_to_the_top_movie_or/

I also created a thread on Reddit, and they told me the Road to the Top movie will probably be out the next week, so I probably will wait for the Road to the Top movie instead because I want to watch the best version of it and the best version is probably the movie because it has additional scenes.

@deg I've been browsing the web to see when both BDs are going to be released:

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/ROAD-TO-THE-TOP-Blu-ray/374815/
https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Uma-Musume-Pretty-Derby-Beginning-of-a-New-Era-Blu-ray/374483/

Road to the Top = Jan 22, 2025 (3 Days)
Beginning of a New Era = Feb 19, 2025 (4 Weeks)

I will wait for both of the BDs because I want to watch the best version of both of them, for now, I'll just keep myself busy watching other animes. I just hope the subs won't take long because goddamn, I'm way too hyped to watch this anime already.

Road to the Top Blu-ray is out and some of the changes are questionable. They also deleted about 30 seconds of Ayabe's scenes https://www.reddit.com/r/UmaMusume/comments/1iao80t/road_to_the_top_bluray_is_out_and_some_of_the/
