thank you so much Arriba for all the pictures! 😆
the orange jacket is the one matching with coach Alex right? i can't help but noticing the jacket have the same colour with TJ pyeongchang olympic jacket. like there's a message behind those jackets, because shoma himself said that he doesn't like a bright colour but those jackets really bright.
 
I think he is just gonna do the kick start but that'd be cool if he could do penalty kicks during halftime, a bit like thye had him do at the basketball match.
Yeah he usually doesn't stay much more than one week in Chicago, maybe 10 days. Must already be quite an expensive trip.
 
Gotta love the profile of the Nagoya Grampus!
http://nagoya-grampus.jp/en/

Nagoya Grampus, also called the "NOBLE BARBARIAN" is committed to venture out into the sporting world with the keywords of "AGGRESSIVE," "CLEAN," "NEVER GIVE UP" and "VIVID" in their hearts.

Sounds familiar. [emoji6]

The four mascots are Grampus-kun, Grara, Grampus-kun Jr, and Grampako-chan. All orcas. Which one will Shomita have the cutest interactions with?
 
Shomita's schedule is super busy!

Latremu, thanks for the team's info, I already like them! The orcas are super cute but I don't know if they can take Rook's place in my heart 😂😂
 
Oh dear, those Glacier videos make me dizzy the way the camera moves around! :laugh: Yikes! ^^^Zenchio63, just noticed those videos today posted by TSL. Wow, check out the old face in both of those. So cute!

Another hard day of training for the Prince. The pattern seems to be that he has two sessions with jumps and programs, both very intense. His SP is really coming along and is so fiery! Can't wait to see it in its full glory, complete with costume. The fact that he really believes in it makes it even better. They continue to work on integrating the jumps into Moonlight Shomata. There's not really a whole lot to say that's different from the other days. He is certainly a very hard worker! I'm exhausted just watching him. There were a few more people who came to watch him today. Hard to take pictures today, and the ones on the ice don't turn out very well.

Hopefully we enjoy these things he's doing now plus his Grampus and Colan Totte events. Once that series of ice shows is over at the end of the month, I am predicting total silence until Lombardia. Then we'll all go crazy for a couple weeks!
 
^^^Not sure of the time on that but 99% sure I would have seen it... Moves are getting sharper and sharper on the SP. I'm really starting to love it. At least 18 camera people are filming today! I would be a nervous wreck if I were the Prince. There were even people outside filming the Glacier sign. I'll post a few video clips later. Just taking a quick lunch break.

Awww I feel like everyone around Shoma is super sweet and have this warmness I can’t explain. Like his manager is always there and is like Shoma’s big brother. Mihoko sensei is super sweet as we all know it. Coach Alex definitely adore and respect Shoma. Many ppl around Shoma that I’ve seen radiate their nice and warm that we can see through picture/video.

^^^I agree with tipptong. There is a warmth and a sweetness to Sho’s team. Bottom line, I think they get back what they give out. They are friendly, respectful, and any other good adjectives I can think of!

There was definitely a lot of action at the rink today. There was a lot of activity because of all the cameras. It was really quite comical to see them all crammed into a small area. It looked like animals penned In a pen in the zoo! I think I counted something like 16 of them in a really small space, plus there were other cameras in other places of the rink. There were a lot of other skaters in the morning, but in the afternoon, it was only him on their second rink. He was exhausted by the end of the session. I think it’s a lot to run your SP 2 or 3 times along with a couple times for the FS. And you figure he had already had a morning session. I’m sure he’ll be working on his stamina over the next couple weeks.

No matter how he does, he is a joy to watch! He does bring the sunshine with him. I’m not sure if they’ll work on Sunday. Frankly, I’m hoping for a day off for him with some light exercise, some gaming, rest, and plenty of niku niku niku.

Here are a couple photos. Special thank you to my friend T. for allowing me to post her photos (which were MUCH better than mine!)

Nice photo. Not sure where this would have been taken. LOVE the red!!! https://www.instagram.com/p/BmXFIINgO_V/?taken-by=gongtianguizi9590
 
Thank you very much Arriba! Sorry for my late reply, I am glad that you (finally) see little Shoma! (does little Shoma count as his nickname too? :P) I love your detail reportSSSS, pic and videos taken ^^ On the other hand, I am happy for Shoma is making progress and doing better and better :-)

After media day, as post by c3zara, there were lots of report from Japan media:

TV report: A session w/ Shoma interview by FNN "Prime News": https://twitter.com/bebesho17/status/1028573079289716738
-> At the beginning, Shoma said "(The practice is so harsh that) I wanna go back to Japan ASAP! Haha"

Reports:
Basically the contents were more or less the same and yawning_shoma has summarized and translated it ^^ so I just added those w/ photos

NHK Sports (w/ some photos):

Shoma: (Regarding long program is shorten by 30sec in coming season) Time is insufficient for jumps that needs time to set up the speed. It is harsh for reducing time.
