Kanako Murakami tweets: “Thank you all for coming to see me compete. Thank you for supporting me. Your kind or harsh words are all my motivations. I am glad and grateful that people still care about me. At 4CC, I am glad to see my best self at SP. Next season, I will work harder and hope to achieve my best at LP.

There is a new article about Kanako on Golden Skate today.
http://www.goldenskate.com/2016/03/kanako-murakami/

Some valuable info:

She had a serious ankle injury last summer so it wasn’t until September that she was able to resume routine training.

About music choice next season:
“Now I finally realize that rather than the music you chose because you like it, it is better to skate to the music that your coaches choose for you because they think it suits you,” said Murakami. “For example, my short program this season is very passionate and engaging with the audience, and I think it really suits me.”

“You are judged by people who watch you skate, and the people who watch me skate the most are my coaches,” she continued. “Although we haven’t decided what music we will use, I really look forward to what they will choose for me.”

About jumps:
“I will try new triple-triple combinations other than the triple toe-triple toe,” she revealed. “What’s more, I am not giving up my Lutz, and I will practice using the correct outside edge.”

I wish Kanako would make her own choices in music, sometimes...
