Go Sota!!!!

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Misha has quite consistent quads, and he has definitely been working on presentation, but there's still a long way to go.

His skating skills are not where they need to be yet, and most of the program is fairly empty until the jumps are done. Very late 90s, early 2000s in both positive and negative aspects. What I noticed is that he is looking at the ice for most of the program, which is a bit of a pet peeve for me, I have to admit

Aight Yamamoto. Redeem yourself!

Kazuki's Moulin Rouge costume

Googles.

Oh yeah maybe that's it!

Nice score there! Urmanov thanks the Japanese people.

Mikhail. Great shirt, program and skate. He has been so consistent this season.

He has very good technique so he's very consistent when healthy.

He is growing on me

Urmanov : i didn't expect that kinda voice....

Not gonna lie I was really surprised too!

Like when Yuzuru spoke and it turned out he actually had a deep voice, I was confused.

Sota doesn't wanna be all by himself! Anymoooore!

Ugh - I've muted this awful version of Rachmaninov. Can't believe how they've butchered one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written....

Wait, this isn't the electric guitar version, is it??

 

[elektra blue]

les sigh...les cacti...it hurts so good

 

[labgoat]

I had really hoped it was his time and had him high in my predictions which are not going well at all.

 

[yesterday]

He didn't give up

 

[Ichatdelune]

Prickly skate

 

[EdgeCall]

The quads were a problem again but actually it was not so bad.

I'm willing for forgive the electric violin but the e-guitar is a no-go. Not With Rach!

Does anyone happen to have a Rachmaninoff zombie gif?

Wait it was Rachimanoff? He didn't even skate to the best bit!

Well, it was rather rough for Sota, but the crowd still loves him Soak it up young man!
