Congratulation! Sota!!He landed 4T-3T. :yahoo: I love his 3F-1Lo-3S. Hope there is a video available later.

Wakaba came back strong! She had tough JGPs but I adore her anyways and I am so happy for her lead in SP. Good Luck for the FP.
My google translates her name Higuchi New Leaf. What a cute name. ;)

ADD: Rika did 3A but fell according to https://twitter.com/yugo0527. Also, Yuna Aoki landed 3lz3R but fell 3lz, it looks like she did well. Bravo Japanese juniors!

Kaori was Clean, a really, really lovely program from her, steps and spins were nice and fast.
Her jumps looked a little low sometimes and her lutz may get an e.

Wakaba was STRONG! Her jumps seem sure again. Only a hand down on the 3F I think. Everything else was good.
However, she's not really getting into the performance much as she is concentrating on her jumps.
But both her 3-3 combos were good.
122.40 for the FS, 189 over all.

Yes, on TV.
Rin did a good job too. Doubled a lutz at the beginning and doesn't have a 3-3 but did everything well and expressed the music nicely.
A bit slow over-all but good edges and upper body movement.
175.97 over all...into 2nd for now.

Yokoi next.

Yokoi has the best presentation of this whole bunch so far! Her Spanish themed program is just SO good.

Had an overturn on one jump and bumped into the boards on her flip but didn't fall. No 3-3 for her, but landed all jumps. I just love the way she skates.

177.40 over-all and into 2nd behind Wakaba. Well done!

Kokoro 16 yrs old next. -I've never seen her before.

Kokoro is such a tall skater! did the 3lz-3t perfect and all the other jumps until the very last 3S which she popped. She was totally out of energy at the end but that was a good performance.
154.89 total for Kokoro

Yuna S. is last to skate. Gooo Yuna!

Yuna S. Landed all jumps both 3-3 combos landed cleanly...but her jumps were small today. Will they get UR?
On the other hand, her presentation and musicality is better than Wakabas as are her spins.
A very good skate though. --Nearly fell getting off the ice. So cute.

184.16 total for Yuna S. 2nd behind Wakaba

1. Wakaba
2. Yuna S.
3. Yuhana

Thank you Interspectator and NMURA for your prompt report. I want to watch videos of all of them. They did wonderful job.
Yuna S. is growing on me, too. Congrats Wakaba, Yuna, and Yukoi!

I remember Yokoi at one of the JGP last season with Akiko's coach( I forgot his name). I guess team Akiko always brings out a top-notch presentation.
