Congratulations to Marin for skating a PB short program at her GPF debut! After a disappointing show at Japanese junior nationals, I'm glad she could deliver here.

congratulations to Marin for getting her ticket for junior worlds!! she is a star, but she needs to work on her consistency and most importantly her stsq and spins she had 2 level2 spins (1 at SP and 1 at LP, both combo spins) and level1 stsq at LP, she is too good to make this kind of mistakes
and since noone posted yet her Short Program, Long Program and Gala

Marin's comments:

After FS at Nationals

I was so nervous [in the free skating] that I couldn't skate the way I wanted. I don't even remember much about how I skated. Junior Worlds berth was at stake and since my short programme was not perfect, I thought I would need to skate clean in the free skating. That's why I got so nervous.

About Junior Worlds

I'm a bit disappointed with the result at Nationals but will forget it soon. Now that I realised that I have to train harder in order to win, I will try my best.

I hope she skates better at Junior Worlds! Good luck, Marin

Reposting this from Skaters on Team Japan thread:

This is a short documentary on the Honda, focusing on Marin and Miyu, family. This is the second one titled "Our Gold Medal". I believe they had a previous short documentary called "Our Level 4".

I'm a bit slow getting around to this, but I finally uploaded a few photos I took of Marin at the Junior Grand Prix final.

Not long now, until Junior World's... I hope Marin skates her best there - it's going to be a tough competition...!

She has very nice edges! I hadn't really paid attention to that before I saw your photos.
