Well done Riku and Ryuichi!! (Though, to nitpick... I don't like the first cover... I'd rather hear Renee Fleming)

Riku looks so surprised.

IT's a pity not to have full amount of participants of pairs here.

 

[yesterday]

see you in 45 mins if I hear my alarm

 

[4everchan]

time to make my chicken crazy. stuff.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

What a sweet reaction! It's wild to remember I first saw Riku in juniors with Shoya Ichihashi... I definitely thought there was potential with her landing throw 3lzs even then but wow...

Why is there a whole 45 minutes until Women Not enough time to sleep in my coffin, too much time to keep energy up easily...

Nice skate by Riki and Ryu, but that music was sad. There are so many better renditions.

Probably to keep to the original schedule set when the full set of pairs were assigned.
