Really strong skate for him!
Elements looking solid!
This type of program really suits him best

Edit: No attempted 2A or 3A so his 3S was deemed invalid

Delay with Yujin's FS...music issue


He's wearing the same costume he used for the SP~

12. Yujin Takeda

4T!!!(2ft?, hand?)
3A
3Lz3T!
FSSp
3Lz(ft dwn)
3LoEu3S
CCoSp
3F(so)
ChSq
ChSp

A bit messy but he's holding it together and landing stuff~
Nice 4T attempt!
Bet that 3LoEu3S was suppose to be a SEQ (+2A on the end)

OT but when I saw that Yujin had switched to MF my first thought was "I wonder if Aiko Iwamoto will switch too"

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Delay again...Ritsu Ikeda's music this time

13. Ritsu Ikeda

3A(fall)
3Lz(fall)
3Lo
FCSp
3F(fall)
1Lz(2ft)
1S
ChSq
ChSp
CCoSp

He's such a gorgeous skater!...if only he could gain some jump consistency
Two new programs tho, so he needs time to adjust to the layouts
The delayed start likely didn't help~

3Lz3T

The ending, the costume
Ta-sama~

Guns on. Wow. I hope choreo execution will improve over time, right now movements look rather mechanical than musical, but I saw many times that Taiga has the capacity of being musical so I'm not too worried. The ending was nice. Not to even mention the jumps
Choreo spin needs work/development.

A fun program where she can showcase her gift of performance and personality

She has competed Solo Dance before
A possible good partner for Ryota Kitamura or even Ritsu Ikeda if he would consider trying Dance

 

[tsuyoboogie]

I need rewatch Karin's Sainichi Cup FS to see exactly what changes were made (jumps and ChSp, aside)
because this performance seemed like an entirely different program to me
