Rice Shower (ライスシャワー, Raisu Shawaa) is a character in Uma Musume: Pretty Derby.
Profile[]
Rice Shower is a timid and shy horse girl who believes that any misfortune that occurs around her is her fault. In actuality, she just happens to walk in at the exact time something goes awry but she is completely convinced that she causes terrible incidents and tries to make up for it no matter how she can.
Her hobby is reading picture books and her favourite is "The Blue Rose of Happiness". Some day, she wants to be exactly that: a girl that makes people smile and be happy. What will exist for her, beyond the hills of misfortune?
Appearance[]
She has long black hair (sometimes brown), covering her right eye and purple eyes, she wears a small tilted blue hat adorned with a single blue rose, worn next to her right ear.
Her default racing costume consists of an off-shoulder short blue dress with a large bow, a black fur collar, black or brown thighhighs and a small scabbard with a sheathed dagger on her waist.
