2020-21 Japanese Nationals: Men's Short Program

Some skaters will plan to retire after this season as they will graduate from college next spring. Karakawa is one of them.
 
If I'm reading my Japanese correctly, this group features a 15 year old as the second skater.

Anyone know who he is? Where's that announcer from Canadian Nationals when you need him.

It's Miura Kao, if I remember correctly 3rd at junior Nationals. He got JGP assignments last season, has light quads and not so good spins
 
That’s Kao Miura to watch, see if he’ll nail the first quad of the competition....(ah the problem is the music...)
 
Sugiyama Sugiyama...I remember he was the former partner of Utana (junior Ice dancer)
 
Ooh I wasn't expecting an one-handed Biellmann, nice

And he stumbles out of a spin exit

What music was he skating to, I was trying Shazam and getting nothing
 
First quad of the competition!

And a splat

Ouch that 3A fall looked hard on the hips

He did improve on his spins, much less ugly than what I remember
 
Hmmm... good question. There are 2 breaks after warm-up for groups 1 and 3, so maybe that's where ads will be shown in the secondary channels (with camera views of the rink in the qq stream). The overall broadcast seems to be running with not that many breaks in general.
No ads on channel 64, Fuji TV One.
 
That is not an auspicious start

And the first pop of the competition

I still think of my darling when I hear Michelangelo 70
 
Are you watching Japan TV too, CoyoteChris? Can you tell me how to change channels easily? I've just been bashing around on the screen...
I hit ESC on the keyboard and it takes me to the main channel screen over on the left. There is a small screen with the content playing, with a maximize button.
 
Whoever thought that those collars was a good idea... (censored)

I think those collars brought bad mojo
