Voice actor Marika Kono updated her X account on the 3rd, sharing a photo of herself as Uma Musume taken seven years ago, along with some nostalgic reflections.

On X, she posted, "I unearthed an old tweet from our 1st event. Back then, we could never have imagined what Uma Musume would become today. I remember feeling overwhelmed by the responsibility of portraying the life of Silence Suzuka, to the point where it almost crushed me. Now, we've even released 'Hacha Uma.' This is me from seven years ago."

In the tweet from seven years ago, she shared her excitement: "Today is the first event as Silence Suzuka from Uma Musume, a stage we've built with so many trainers! We'll be sprinting full speed from the starting dash to deliver a fun time to all our supporters and staff. Trainers, let's have the best time together!" She also mentioned in an interview with ORICON NEWS that the uniform she wore back then is similar to what she wears now but slightly different. Reflecting on those memories, she said, "I remember doing it in a limited space at the Cygames booth. Personally, the lessons before that event are more memorable. I had a complex about dancing and felt a lot of pressure to learn it because I didn't want to hold anyone back. I don't think I had much room to breathe at the time."
