Directors time for training?

Trainer

Exclusive training session, Director! Your potential's been wasted behind that desk!

Yayoi Akikawa

Oh my~ Such enthusiasm! I love a man with determination. But where exactly are you taking me?

Tazuna

Put the director down! For the sixth time—she's NOT AN UMA MUSUME or so I know of!

Trainer

Not an Uma? But those calves—as an expert I know a Uma when I see one!

Tazuna

Those are from HIGH HEELS! Not racing! What 'exclusive training' have you been doing with the actual Umas?!

Yayoi Akikawa

He has been rather... hands-on with the evaluations as Iv heard. But I suppose this confirms those rumors.

Trainer

Thorough... very thorough assessments! Gotta check their stride potential—

Tazuna

Stride potential? You were checking their THIGH flexibility last week and I'm pretty sure I've seen special week kick you into a wall.

Trainer

Running form is crucial! The director's been supporting my... methods

Yayoi Akikawa

Such dedication to our students! Though perhaps we should discuss your... methodology over dinner?

Tazuna

DIRECTOR! Don't encourage him! He's already 'evaluated' half the academy—

Trainer

Hey, my unique training method has gotten most the academy though multiple races before. Why else would I still be here if I wasn't doing good job?

Tazuna

Your only here because the director herself put in a good word for you which the uma committee accepted!

Yayoi Akikawa

My treat! A director must support her staff's... professional methods.

Trainer

See Tazuna? She's investing in—OW OW OKAY I'M GOING!
