Adorable video of the girl wearing a dress like Mao's. Mao has done so much to increase the popularity of figure skating!
Awww, so adorable. She looks so happy seeing that dress reveal
Totally deserved to have an event named after her with all the amount of work she put into the sport.

A video with some clips of performances from her tour. I really like the new opening to Madame Butterfly. :luv17:

Here is a lovely futuristic space routine performed by Megan Nepa at Mao Asada's Trophy . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svp0KRxWMcw
This is a recent interview with Kailani Craine where she talked at length about her biggest skating inspiration: Mao Asada. :luv17: https://europeonice.com/2018/08/13/kailani-craine-dreaming-a-little-dream/

a video on Mao's show in Nagoya coming back to the Chukyo university rink that she built. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/k1QtCoAzeso89CrLGXH
Mao was very happy to eat eel bento, Machiko Yamada and Mihoko Higuchi (former coaches) came to see the show and congratulated her backstage. A lot of the audience was emotional and Mao too was fighting tears.

TSL recently posted some really good quality videos of Mao's practice sessions at Worlds and Skate America in 2016.

SA FS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7teSvtd4ZEs (She didn't do any jumps in this practice session but I rewatched it several times for the choreographic and steps sequences. :luv17: I like how the camera captured different angles of the program that weren't shown in the TV versions.)

And now let's turn to the version of ritual dance in long, red skirts (the one from The ICE 2017, only the step part and it has been re-choreographed a little bit, but I think Mao did a great job reviving her own programs!)

Adding: just feel happy for her that she's turning into a happy pro-skater!

The broadcasting of performances from Saitama stop is scheduled on Oct 13th. But I won't expect the full version to be broadcast. As the show is still touring, most likely only partial recordings of the whole show will be broadcast.

Olympic Channel interviewed Mao recently.
My husband has won tickets of her show:hap93:! The best present he's ever given to me.

I've been wondering what Mao has been doing after her retirement because there aren't any video of her performance since last summer?
Why didn't she skate in summer shows in Japan? Because she is too busy with her own shows?

Mao attempted a 3S and a 3F+2Lo+2Lo in her latest IG stories!

It could be
sleepy. Clearly what the tech panel's state usually is, too. I did notice the forward landing, on the last loop though, hence the "attempted".Edit: yeah it's a +3Lo+3Lo<< impressive that her flip is still pretty big.

I meant "I thought she did a 3F+2Lo+2Lo (as she usually did in competition) in my sleep-deprived state, but noted the forward landing on the second loop, thought she did a 2Lo<<, and hence just wrote "attempted" the jump instead of "landing" it (because it's hardly a thing that matters in practice when she's not even competing)". Sorry. :shame: I thought I was at least being grammatically coherent, but nope, not even that.
