The last two seasons, Mao's worst showing was at her first Grand Prix event. She has always done better later on, I'm not too worried.
Exactly! It is better to show room for improvement early in the season rather than later.
About her costume, I think it portrayed the 'grotesque' feel her music just the way it is. It didn't bother me at all.
Loved(!) her tano jump...it was so exquisite...simply took my breath away.
There were any beautiful things that I appreciated very much... I wish I had more knowledge to talk about it...
