I just added a link to Seigo Tauchi's SP to the post mentioned above
To fully understand his reaction after his FS (and the standing ovation he received) I recommend watching his SP before his FS
He was 17th after the SP, placed 3rd in the FS, finishing 8th overall, just qualifying for an invite to compete at Nationals

Thank you so much for the video, which made it possible to get acquainted with what is happening at the Japan Junior Championships!
I was happy for Seigo, he managed to pull himself together and get up.
Surprised by such a fall Takuru, very sorry.
Keeping an eye on Takahashi, he seems like a promising boy.

I just binge watched the Jr Ladies short and most of the free thanks to you! 4 hours. Just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate what you have done before the big storm hits tonight and we loose internet/power and get stuck with 12 inches of blowing and drifting snow.
It amazes me that you can do all this work and I can sit on my couch by a fire in the fire place and watch this great comp my big screen TV just by moving a wireless mouse a little bit. What talent....coaches and skaters...and what great music choices.....see you all on the other side of the storm...hopefully.

Gonna print out the top 8 and see how they do at Senior nats....What a pool of Talent Japan has here...technically for sure, but artistically as well and each pulled me into their performance and onto the ice, but in different ways.

Why this year 8 junior ladies and men qualified to senior nationals?
