But in all seriousness, I thought Kaori had the second best skate of the ladies last night, and she def deserved third position instead of Liza!! I hope she can do great on Saturday and podium - she seems primed for it lol :hap10:
 
Shame about the fall as she was so close to the podium, but she skated so beautifully. Her jumps are big and powerful but are landed with a buttery smoothness that's to die for. Her spiral sequence also gives me life! I hope she continues to improve and finds herself on the worlds podium some day!
 
Shame about the fall, but it was a beautiful performance. :) She was like flying on the ice, as free as a bird, and the rink looked too small for her.
 
Congratulations to Kaori on her SP today at nationals! She was absolutely fantastic. I hope she'll keep it together in the FS and podium again, heck, maybe even win... The other ladies are lovely, but Kaori is still my sentimental fav of the crop.

Congratulations Kaori! The new Japanese National Champion. So happy for her, a really deserved win overall!
 
This was all I wanted for Christmas. I can’t believe my wish came true!
 
She was really amazing in her long program, the best I've seen from her. :love::yahoo: She deserves this victory, congrats Kao-chan!
 
I'm so happy for her. I love her FS and I put her in first in the predictions. :thumbsup: :points:

:clap:

Kaori combine such a great features.

She is smooth on ice like a top japanese skater, but her jumps are so high and she have a unique style.

I love when she do those moves that seem like she's unbalancing themself, and then she take full control of it :yahoo:
 
I've been openly unhappy with her programs this season but never been overly joy to be proven wrong before. Wow just wow! Seeing her transformed into phenomenon skater has been a good ride. Her winning is a cherry on top. She is now officially my Japanese Misty Copeland.

Congratulations honey. Now go out there and conquer the world!
 
Soooooo proud of Kaori today!! I was at the edge of my seat throughout her whole free skate, and she genuinely brought tears to my eyes by the end. That program is truly special. My favorite part of it all though was her reaction to her scores. Her smile and excitement made my morning! So proud of her, I hope she can repeat performances like that at 4CC and worlds (so excited she'll be on the teams!!).

Congratulations to Kao-chan, the sunshine girl (and now a golden girl as well)!!
 
She really skated well today. So smooth, fast, great jumps... well deserved national champion. World's this year will be so special for her.
