air groove (umamusume)
Umamusume character. Voiced by Aoki Ruriko.
Vice President of the Tracen Academy Student Council. Frequently the victim of Symboli Rudolf's horrible puns.
Air Groove's official character profile originally had a line mentioning that "she hates men because of a certain traumatic incident in a race" (レース中のとあるトラウマが原因で男嫌い). This was a reference to the 1997 Japan Cup incident where another horse, Pilsudski, won the race in front of Air Groove in spite of said horse flashing at the paddock in front of the crowd (and other horses including Air Groove), which is normally seen as a sign of distraction by Japanese horse racing fans. This line was subsequently removed, but the incident is still referenced in Air Groove's relationship with Fine Motion, as the real-life Fine Motion is the half-sister of Pilsudski.
