During her SP and LP performances as well, I noticed that quietness, which was unfortunate. Even a two-3A program was not enough to make them very excited. It wasn't like that when Mao skated at 4CC in Korea last time without Yuna competing against her, or when Yuna skated in Tokyo Worlds 2007. The audience at Tokyo were very excited with Yuna's SP and sighed truly dissapointedly when Yuna fell twice in LP. It seems that there are a lot of enthusiastic Mao fans in Korea. Even if not particularly devoted fans, they could be very excited with her as we saw at 4CC.
But as someone said, her fans and/or those who like FS in general may not have been able to get tickets of ladies. Only devoted Yuna fans may have been able to judging by the incredible number of banners for her that covered up most of the seats throughout the arena. Many of the banners looked very alike in colors and designs, which implies that many of the audience might be from her fan clubs. As I watched those banners, I was thinking that it would be cool if they did a "wave" using these banners. It would have been an impressive sight:yes:
Overall, the gala had a great energy and I really enjoyed it.
Especially, I was happy to see Tomas's gala performance. He could be so sexy. Wow! The audience really loved him.
Johnny was so extremely beautiful as always. Joannie was also sexy and had a great ease in her jumps. Caro was very cute, too.
Taka had very interesting steps. I wish he did not fall. But it was an adorable performance.
I liked Yuna's costume. It was very elegant. I might have liked it even better if it were not black and silver. But it had a very beautiful line around her back. It was a lyrical performance, which reminded me of her 2006-7 gala.
Mao had a great energy. It is interesting that she is 100% more expressive during her gala performances than during competitive programs. This is a very cool, sophisticated program. Especially, I love the snakes and footsteps. I also like this costume. Very stylish.
