2018-19 Japanese National FS Championships Ladies' SP

[NoNameFace]

I was simply mesmerized by Kaori, the ease and calm, relaxing aura around her presence are so soothing... And her landing position is so natually pretty! Love that she projects very effortlessly, with that translucent musicality. Her reaction was the cutest and the way Mai supported her before skate, how they shared smiles before warm-up, the respect and friendly demeanour they have for each other are beautiful to see. I love both, but Kaori for me had just more spark all-around.

An Anastasia program! They should do more of those

(In Juniors especially)

I loved it when Anastasia Galustyan did a routine to this music a few years ago. But, she was in Seniors...

And I am fascinated by this whole culture, clapping of Japanese fans, I would feel soooo embarassed by myself and out of place with my emotional and loud supporting

Yamashita Mako is a nice skater, but that was not her best skate and I have no idea which is more atrocious, her yellow skin tights or her music...

I don’t have a problem with seniors using it, either. It just feels a little Bradie Tennell skating to Cinderella for me.

Not the best skate for my lutz child Mako somebody get this girl a better SP next season

This group

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Getting really frustrated with the sound being so out of sync with the pictures on the weebly stream.

EDIT: The picture froze during the introductions, so I refreshed the page and the audio is back in sync. So, the problem was at my end.​

And even more frustrated with the number of adverts that are being inserted. I wish the skating had stayed on that other channel.

With RusNats pushed half an hour back, how nice I can see Marin and the last group without splitting my brain in half

 

[Noxchild]

when hina takeno showed up on screen i legitimately thought mai was skating again or omething... same hair part, same-ish outfit, they look like twins!?

 

[Ichatdelune]

OT, but since a mediocre version of Ich gehör nur mir was played: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nuy-WmMm99w

My favorite cover, and not just because she's Korean. She's great.
