They're giving us more of a close-up of part of Yuzuru's costume today. That's more like it, camera people!

What is this Bolero? Seriously is someone really famous singing it? It's kinda of funny tbh.

 

[pianistliz]

Aaaaand now I'm nervous....

Yuzuru costume alert! Flowers and pale blue!

How can you tell? Is the TV stream better than the QQ one? I can't even tell which skater is Yuzu from this angle

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Here’s hoping for a clean final group

 

[Yuzuruu]

I'm so nervous for Yuzu! May the ice be kind to all today

The way they're filming this warmup on the QQ stream is useless

Yep, tv stream has close ups on him and Shoma atm

Yuzu's costume is definitely not my favorite from him. Dang, this warm-up group is stacked.

Hanyu actually looks pretty cool/relaxed. I'm still shaking with nerves though. Yuma looks nervous. I just want all of them to be relaxed and perform well for themselves. Come on, guys, you can do it.

I want them all to do well...

 

[Yuzuruu]

Shun's 4Lz not working, Shoma had a hard fall on 4T, Yuzu just whipped out a 4Lo

I think Yuzu always looks pretty confident, and Shun and Yuma always look terrified before skating. It's a side effect of being a junior.

Ouch Shoma

So Yuzuru looks great in traditional garb and I'm a sucker for traditional garb, but I'm not loving that costume. Too many color splotches, and the flower(?) details look messy. I was hoping simple but ornate and I'm honestly let down

Every skate starts so promising...and then falls apart...
