thanks!!! nice montage.

I think that those ballet lessons have helped her so much. I know that she used t do ballet as a young girl, but i believe she stopped. Her artistry has come leaps and bounds since last year. Her pirouette wasn't that good though!

I really hope she can win worlds. She so deserves it this year.

Mao Asada is an awesome skater. In my opinion, one of the two best in the world right now. It would be great to see her win Worlds this year. I'm hoping for Asada or Kim to win. Either will put a smile on my face.

I'm not really a Mao fan. Artisticly she doesn't move me like Yu-Na, and her jumps aren't too pretty. However, I admire her technical abilities and her character. I also like the way she's progressed on her jumps since 2005.

I heard that Mao got injured after 4CC.
It seems like Japanese TV reported that a while ago she injured her ankle or broke her bone or something.
Is it a serious one?
She is usually a type of skater who seldom mentions her health problem.
She never says she couldn't skate well because she had a cold when
apparently her voice tells she has a bad cold.
That's the reason why !'m more concerned about her health and injuries.

Eeek, do not scare me!

It was just reported that she left Nagoya and is heading to Sweden, so I hope she is okay!

According to MaoNinja's post here (currently the last post):

Mao is in fine condition and training in Nagoya helped her relax...

Thanks for the info, inskate.
That's great to hear.
I was concerned because Mao looked very tired when TV showed her arriving in Japan from 4CC.
And considering how difficult elements she is doing, it's not far fetched to infer
she has some painful parts in her body.

I wish her the best of luck at Worlds.
