Are you going to the Sapporo show? Lucky you! I hope you have fun.
I think the first showing will be from Fuji TV on July 25, 9:55-10:55 (only 1 hour)

Chukyo TV will have a special program on August 2, 15:00-16:25 with lots of backstage footages and an interview by Midori Ito.
And a program focused on the show itself, on August 15, 1:59-3:59 on Chukyo TV also.

Then there is THE ICE channel on YouTube so hopefully we're all covered.

I just realized they took down all the YT videos from THE ICE 2014
Thank you for the info!
Yeah they take the YT videos down after every season. Always gotta be quick and grab them before it happens haha.

:scowl: Morons... Like if deleting Yuna's videos wasn't enough...
This is the official The Ice channel. They have the rights to the videos from the show, and they kindly upload it on their channel so the fans all over the world can watch it.
The videos stay up for one year, then they are deleted when the next The Ice show is about to start. As the rights to the show's broadcast are shared among a couple of TV stations, I'd assume their contract only allows them to share the videos online for one year. It's sad the vids get deleted, but at least the fans can watch them fairly quickly (and save them for personal use ). I don't think The Ice have anything to do with the disappearance of Yuna's performances, as they have no rights to any of them. If somebody filed a copyright claim, NBC or IOC are the most likely candidates. Unfortunately, a lot of figure skating videos don't get to stay up for a long time... I lost a couple of my montages

Yes. Not on the first day, though, as I have a scheduled whole day health check aside from thinking they might not be fully ready yet during the very first show of the tour.

I learned my lesson last year and I think I got all the ones I wanted
I saw it coming but somehow thought that they'd wait until the latest videos are made available.Yes. Not on the first day, though, as I have a scheduled whole day health check aside from thinking they might not be fully ready yet during the very first show of the tour.
That's true. Although it might be fun to watch them all over the place and looking confused too

CONK at maoasadaforum posted this information about Mao's radio talk show. She said that Mai has taken over the talk show with the new 'Mai's young Japan action.' and that Mai revealed during the show that Mao's new costume for the new Ex is 'very cute, and it is quite different from all her previous costumes!'

Really good question. If I had to guess, I think it would be a little more likely that Mao will perform just her exhibition and her group number with Carolina and Joannie and something with Jeffrey Buttle, but I really don't know because Mao also said according to rosewood's translation at fsuniverse, "While it's just a single show, I wish I will show various styles of myself in it." According to her translation, Mao also said, "I skate lots of programs. I skate my former programs as well. People will have fun." So, it seems there is a good chance she could perform her new SP or an old program as well.

Does anyone know how often Mao has debuted her SP for the new season at The Ice in the past?

Only once - during the Sochi season. I think it was a success, as it allowed Team Mao to get the program in from of the audience early, get some feedback and make some tweaks before the GP. If you compare Nocturne from The Ice and GPF (or Worlds), the choreographical nuances and the atmpsphere of the program had changed a lot. IIRC, Lori initially wanted it to be a program about first love, but then it was tweaked to be more about Mao's life (looking over the past, then turning to look forward to the future) and the relationship with her mother.
I think it's possible Mao will skate her SP at this year's The Ice again, as it's the only opportunity to skate the program in front of the audience before the GP.

I hope so! Cant wait to see!
All of them are lovely, even in mobile suite! (It's because Mao's existence is beautiful, so every style suite her just being herself.)
I love 8 most! Ponytail, her profile, aqua color... so sweet!

Just finished watching Mai give an interview about Mao on Sporto! and she reports that Mao will be going for 8 triples in her free program. :shocked:
She also said that as reported earlier, Mao gets/was getting up at 4am for practice, and goes/went to sleep at 9pm.
I wonder what her layout will be?
3axel
3flip-3loop
2axel-1loop-3salchow
2axel-3toeloop
3lutz
3flip
3loop
Maybe?

Woah that's pretty insane, it's looks plausible but to me I think she'd keep the 3Lz in the first half since it's one of her weaker elements, it would be better for her to put something she's better at in the 2nd half to get the most out of the 10% bonus but it doesn't look like there's anything she can really move
I definitely think the 3Lo will be last though, that's her money jump imo

I wonder if Mao will try to get two 3A back into her freeskate. Would she swap the 2A+3T for a 3A+2T then? And would she do 2 x 3F or 2 x 3L if she did two axels. Lots of potential possibilities.

Why not replace 2a-1lo-3s with 3f-1lo-3s and move a 3a where a solo 3f would have been?
I'm saying prayers that she doesn't start off with two 3a's again. I just never really felt that myself.
Maybe:
3a
3f-1lo-3s
2a-3t
-Steps-
3a
3lutz
3flip
3loop
Holy Crap that looks tough.
