I liked seeing Shun Sato at the NHK gala! I thiiiiink this is the first time I've actually seen him skate? I'm sure his winning novice nats performance has aired or will eventually air on TV. One of the twitters I follow posted screen caps from an airing of junior nats yesterday so it seems it was aired again or they aired new footage? And still nothing uploaded that I can find, it's a bit disappointing

Here's a news clip about Shun Sato from Jr. Nationals on Miyagi local TV. You can see parts of his SP and FS.

Fuji TV showed the FS of the top 7 ladies and the top 4 men last week (Sota, Kazuki, Daichi, Koshiro) so hopefully someone will upload Kazuki, Daichi and Koshiro's soon if they haven't been already. Actually, I hope the whole program will be uploaded because it was very well made with interviews of skaters, their coaches, and cute interactions between skaters. So many tears as well. The Junior Nationals seems to be a very emotional event every year.

There's a video of the preview for next week. It looks like a fun episode.

After Satoko got a silver medal at Worlds, Yamato promised himself that he'd never tell her she sucks. But a week later, Satoko was told by Yamato that she sucks and by Coach Hamada to go back to beginner's class Poor girl, but she's a tough one.
Yamato made Kenji's Room fun when Dai was on it too. I think he may have been drunk there

I'm hoping to see more junior skaters in the Figure Skate TV on Dec. 13, hopefully more boys, as I cannot find long version of videos of them

Shun Sato seemed to be very nervous in the gala of NHK, as well as Rika Kihira. I hope it was a good experience for them as it was for their senpais including Yuzuru :agree:

CM for the Japan Nationals (yearly Christmas bloodbath?) coming up...including Satoko and Rika :luv17:

I wonder why GPF organiser did not get two of the same Japanese flags

I felt weird too. Apparlently, the right one has too big red circle. Even if they had not prepared two flags, if they could get the white cloth of the same size, was it so difficult to copy the red circle in the correct constitution?

In any case, only one flag was not enough. Congrats! Shoma

Wao, I can hardly wait for the Nationals. After that I would be able to live a bit more calm days, but for a while
