I know that I'm guilty of mentioning this the last season, but please someone give Miki a decent costume and costume designer! Agggg...
Seriously, with her leather gloves & asymmetircal shoulder ornaments, she look like a Dominatrix!
The difference between Akiko & Miki in terms of costuming are truly staggering. With Akiko everything is nicely coordinated, including her hair style, hair dresses and earings. She looks very nice and polished.
Sigh...

Yay for Akiko. There is something about her …
Loved the program except for the slow spins. Don't know if she ever tries 3-3 combination?
3 flip 2 toe
3 lutz

Pretty close among the ladies. Eight of them 52.93 or more.

Yey! Not surprised to see Akiko in first. Very nice score. Congrats to her and good luck keeping it up in the long.
Agnes and Ashley right behind her and might just pull off gold
Good luck to them in the long.
Poor Miki. Don't get what happened but whatever she is doing this season seems not be working for her at all. Still, watch out for her to knock Agnes or Ashley off the podium if she skates her best in the free and they falter.
What happened to Ksenia?? I didn't watch....

She stepped out of the first 3T of her planned 3T-3T

I liked Akiko a lot, American girls and Miki not that much. Agnes should work harder on her skating skills, she was the slowest.
I must say, after that brilliant skate from Sofia, I'm not sure that Alena Leonova will go to Euros this season...

Yes, Miki and Ksenia are not out yet. My podium was Miki, Akiko and Ksenia in that order. Stick by that. A lot of unproven skaters showing potential (just starting to watch videos). A big mix-up between the 1st & 2nd groups. This might turn out to be one of the more interesting GPs.

Overall strange results.. not Akiko being in 1st, but some of the other placements
It's true, Ando could still win. But what is UP with her? She hasn't been fulfilling expectations for quite a while now. I'm suprised to see her that low with a relatively clean program but I'm not shocked. I thought she was suppposed to be concentrating on her jumps these season and trying to outclass the field in that department ... that is certainly not happening.
Miki won a gp so something good is happening for her but she isn't getting the scores that she use to. If she skates good enough she will probably be on the stand. She's more consistent than anyone there really. However I don't think she skates with the interest that she use to. She certainly isn't given the programs to vault to the top in the short program. I don't know why Miki accepts the programs that NM presents to her.
