Well, that is always good when the skater has a real connection with the music. Great! :dance:

Shoma looks fierce, like a lion (not cub). And the costume looks different from his previous ones. For one it has short sleeves. I really think he is going to make a splash this coming season depending on how good his programs are.

thanks, i really like the music(assuming its the one you posted

)really excited for tomorrow!!! :cheer:

but he looks so serious in the pictures, i want to see more than serious face from him

And fans are suggesting his music is "Legends" by Sacred Spirit.

It's not 100% sure but they said it has intricate choreography and they all liked the program.

I just got back from FaOI Makuhari :cheer:

I'm not very good at remembering music, but I think this is it.

His top looked a bit more yellowish, but it may have been the light.
He popped a jump, but other than that, he was fantastic!
I don't know if he's actually gotten taller, but he certainly didn't look small on the ice.

TheGrandSophy · May 29, 2015

He always does look intense. He needs to work on that.

The music is not my choice, but I have played it a few times now and it is growing on me. I am very pleased that he goes for different music from the usual though. You don't want to be compared to a million other (insert warhorse) in your senior debut season. It sounds good for footwork sequences.

The costume... Well, it has never been his strongpoint. Lol As I said I reserve judgement, 'til I see those trousers in movement. They are a bit shiny... Lol The shirt is a bit of a swamp colour, but is not as bad a s some I've seen him in, bless him. I think the neckline looks nice, from what I can see.

yah, Mikaboo! Glad you enjoyed! how is the choreo?

Good for you.

Thanks for the personal account of Shoma's performance.

Btw and apologies for hijacking this thread, there's wailing and gnashing of teeth in the Yuzuru thread about the ban on fan cams in the show so if you can pretty please also give a review of Yuzuru's skate there, that will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I was just happy to see him for the first time and busy confirming if he was wearing a deep V-neck or not so I don't really remember much about the choreography... :hopelessness: I always take a long time to get used to a new program though. Let me just say I don't think he "owns" the program yet but he has a whole season to do so.
Looking forward to the broadcast tomorrow night like everybody else here!

Oh OK. I can't catch up on the Yuzuru thread but I he's still my favorite! (or one of my favorites)

That's okay. Thanks for what you have said!

I actually like the intensity of his look. It positions him in more of a unique and differentiated way from his competitors. There's plenty of 'sweetness' and OMG-edness to go around more than a few times too much in my opinion. Go Lion cub!

ioanna · May 29, 2015

This article just confirmed that his new SP is indeed "Legends" by Sacred Spirit.

:yay: Thanks so much mikaboo!

Re Shoma, while I certainly see the resemblance to Daisuke, he also reminds me of Tatsuki in seriousness and size. And pardon the bad pun, he is certainly a Shoma (showman) on the ice.

Oh, I definitely agree in many ways. I just think that his expression doesn't vary much. Intensity can stay though. I phrased it badly.

Thanks, Ioanap, for the confirmation.

As a fellow Tatsuki fan I definitely agree with you. Not only in seriousness and size but also his upper body carriage and exquisite, precise use of his arms and hands.

Yes, Shoma, like Tatsuki, doesn't look rushed on the ice but precise and deliberate.

This reminds me of the way Shoma ducked out of the way so people could take pictures of Tatsuki at Prince Ice World a few weeks ago. :laugh:

It was a very adorable and funny moment and I'm glad the fans captured it.

Awwww, so sweet and considerate of his senpai. :love:

Thanks for sharing ionap.

I am beyond excited for Shoma just by looking at the picture and listening to that piece of music! So happy that he is doing something different, and I think it's a step in the right direction; to me it looks less juniorish? but of course haven't even seen the program yet.

Any GP prediction for Shoma? Will he get two assignments? I hope to see him live next season!

I had a great time updating Shoma's OP, and particularly watching his baby pictures which I hadn't watched since 2008!

I am looking forward to his next season!
