As you've been well aware, Marin is not a consistent skater but Polina had not only huge jumps but also consistency last season. Polina had higher BV and big GOE potentials on her magnificent jumps while Marin had superb SS and gorgeous spins. That doesn't mean that Polina was a merely consistent jumper or Marin had poor jumps, but their notable strengthes were different and Polina's chance to get higher score was greater than inconsistent Marin.
Polina had good momentum after winning everything except her senior result at Nationals. There were expectations that we would see her break 200 for the first time in juniors. On the other hand, Marin was so unpredictable, but we got to know the pattern of Marin's competitive results from the inside and outside of Japan. Except the JW, she didn't make two clean performances in one event. I think she does better when she is out of the heavy favorite position or out of pressure.
None argued about Marin's JW title, and her performances were totally deserved for the title. However her two main competitors were absent from competition, so her chief rivals became Sotskova and Higuchi. Unless she blew off her opportunity, her chance for medalling was big. I think that gave her psychologically a comfort zone. One thing to note however is that Marin was beaten by Polina at JGPF by the margin of almost 20 points. Therefore, your argument that as long as Marin breathing, Polina's chance for this season's dominance is none or it is a myth that Polina could've easily won the title last season doesn't sound very convincing. I just questioned the possibility for that achievement this season because I have no concrete knowledge of her status. Eventually, we're just going to find out though.

Are you taking that from the ISU livestream? Because their countdown clock was an hour out yesterday.
I thought the Group 1 Warm-Up started at 09:00 BST / 08:00 GMT (just under 2h 30m from now)

as she said in the interview it wont be connected with GoT at all
I already started to think that her main idea will be 'I choose violence'
It would be hilarious

Really looking forward to seeing this opening group. Calderone is the only one I've definitely seen before (I think McIsaac was one of the few girls I saw from US Nationals, but I'm not sure)
And I have been impressed with the Turkish skaters that have been coming through the ranks the past couple of seasons. So, I hope the first girl continues that trend.
ALL THE BEST EVERYBODY!!!

Sugarpova - we just heard your favourite song! 
And, appropriately enough, the phrase "Je t'aime" sums up what I thought of the routine!
WELL DONE ILAYDA!!!

I think Chiara's reaction when she finished summed it all not.
Not the best I've ever seen from her.
I've a feeling she may go into 2nd.
EDIT: She didn't. But, she's only 6 points ahead of Ilayda.

Now that was something completely new.
Apart from last month's Asian Trophy, Iwamoto has never competed outside of Japan. And she has never done Senior Nationals. So, I've never seen her before.
But, that was impressive.
New leader by a big margin for sure.
WELL DONE KOKORO!!!

Yamato!:dance:
I knew it wouldn't take long for you to point that out!
Moving onto Yu-Hsun.
So young. So tiny. And so good!
And so cute when waiting for her results!
I would put her into 2nd, but nearer to Kokoro than Chiara.
