Nice touch with the reference to her namesake in her character design.

The other character with Kitasan Black is Skilfing, son of Kitasan Black, winner of the 2023 Aoba Sho and a fatality on the racetrack at the 2023 Derby, dying from a heart attack after the end of the race. That card hanging from Skilfing's neck is revealed to be a "I have heart issues" card on the next page.

Furthermore, this year (2024)'s Aoba Sho winner was Sugar Kun, a younger brother of Kitasan Black and son of Duramente. He didn't win but he sure didn't die.

I still found it's kinda funny that Duramante actually bang Kitasan's mother in RL, what more have very promising foal. Imagine the comic we get if Sugar-kun become uma

reading the pedigree line of the thoroughbred horses is as easy as it can get... if you managed to not get confused by either the Joestar family tree or Takamiya "family" tree

I watched that race and couldn't stop my tears as Skilfing was being comforted by Lemaire. That derby really hurt as I've followed Skilfing's progress since the start of his career. This must what the people really felt during that AkiTen in 1998 with Suzuka.

*Glances at Makoto's family "tree"*

Dura has the ultimate comeback if she ever gets into an argument with Kita.
