Edit
Character from Umamusume.
The fortune-telling horse girl with a really long name (and meant to be read as Machikane Fukukitaru), Matikanefukukitaru is obsessed about fortune and luck and collects a wild range of lucky charms. The other horse girls (and humans at times) often consult her with their luck as well. She often refers to a "Shiraoki-sama" as if they were a shinto deity (and indeed, a horse named Shiraoki is the RL horse's 5th generation mare line ancestor).
Appearance
See post #3076130.
Horse girl. She has short orange to brown flipped hair and brown to amber eyes with constant starry eyes. She wears a daruma hair ornament on her left temple and a clover hair ornament to her right. She also wears a single ear cover on her right ear.
Her racing outfit consists primarily of a relatively simple white, blue and red serafuku. It has a bagua motif on the back of the sailor collar, has open shoulders and is decorated with small bows on the sleeves. Like all horse girls, she wears black bike shorts under her skirt, but her pair is somewhat longer and often visible.
She also wears a belt with ema dangling from it, one saying "Great Luck" and another saying "Assured Victory". On her back is a backpack shaped like a maneki-neko, itself wearing several amulets on it's collar. She wears ribbon-trimmed thighhighs with alternating colors and her shoes are simple loafers. She can also be seen holding a crystal ball.
Her other racing outfit dubbed as "Full Armor" is an orange dress with various charms, a small handbag with chick image in it as well as wearing a orange beret and a bag with more charms placed as a keychain.
Additional notes
Show
- Her name, when read as a whole, roughly means "Good fortune comes to those who wait".
- Her real life counterpart also has the same long name. This is originally intended to be "Machikane Fukukitaru", but later shortened to "Matikanefukukitaru" because of a maximum 18 letter limit on the international rules for racehorse names. Here, Machikane/Matikane is a kanmei and many of the owner's horses have limit-filling names like these. (See Matikane Tannhauser as well.)
