Instagram's auto translation says:Hello! Is there anybody here who can translate the message Rika has just written on her last Instagram story? I’m afraid is nothing good
Fatigue and fracture in my right ankle
Things are getting a whole lot better!!
MRI when left was terrible and right is today's picture! There are a few holes, but it's good to start moving little by little
Until last month, I had a tooth ache, and sometimes it was pain, so I was about to hold on a little longer, so I'm glad I was able to bear it so that I don't move too much this month, especially so I can't bear it in my legs
Ah, I'm so happy The last paragraph of the translation seems a little dodgy to me, but the general gist is that her fracture is improving.
Edit: @ansalda has a much better translation!
Hi there, this is a help call from Define Lambiel's Coaching Style thread !
We kind of started to discuss Rika's collaboration with Stephane and I realized that we don't have the basic facts, such as: when did their collaboration start? What exactly did they do together? Has there been any feedback from Rika and/or her former or current team regarding her work with Stephane?
I would really appreciate if you could find some time (and links to programs and interviews, maybe there are fan-translated interviews from Japan
) to contribute. Thank you!

Rika's post after the Chubu Championships.
DeepL translation:
I presume All-Japan is Nationals?
DeepL translation:
The Chubu Championships are over!
We qualified in 6th place, which was our goal for this year's event, and we've been selected for the All-Japan!
I'm relieved for once.
Now I'll refrain from jumping for the next round and focus on healing my injury, training and practising with less stress on my right leg!.
I hope you can look forward and wait carefully for my full recovery.
It's been about a year and a half since I competed, but thank you so much for all your support.
I'm going to heal my injury first, practice what I can do and train a lot so that I can meet you all at All-Japan with full of energy

If true she will compete next at nationals, I'm so sad about this.

Interview with Rika from Sportiva, posted in translation on twitter.
The original interview is here.

That's a new dress, right? I think also the commentators mentioned it?
She did skate in a different one at regionals. The one from the shows I think.
I did the numbers. If Rika had skated her short cleanly, she would have won a medal at Skate Canada. Assuming that she gets her lutz and flip back for her second assignment in Finland, and presumably wins the event, she would even have qualified for GPF. That would have been amazing. Even so, her free was clean, and we'll have to wait and see her progress after a month.
