LOOK !
Team Japan pair, Ryuichi Kihara posted Satoko's "East of Eden" pose.

【Photo caption】
It is an annual pose every time.
It is the fourth time to shoot again because I do not have enough spirit.

I know I'm a little late but I wanted to wish a happy birthday to Tatsuki, one of the most underrated skaters ever

Happy Birthday Tatsuki, I still believe that silver medal at 2014 Worlds had to be a different color!

A recent interview series conducted by Yumi Asano is featured in Asahi's 4years project.

Most content is not new, but it might be the first time he mentioned that the anonymous production team (Atelier t.e.r.m), which is known for advising him on the artistic aspects over his professional career, already started to play a part in the choreo and packaging of East of Eden back in 2013.

P.S. He's in good shape (thank you Tsuyoshi Togitsu for the nice photoshoot:agree: ), and is looking forward to his new position as an assistant professor at Kokugakuin University this October. Congratulations!

For whoever is interested in how he's doing and what he's been up to, here's a beautiful CM of his ballet workshop for figure skaters, where he will be making his first on-ice appearance after his pro retirement.

Tatsuki Machida recently exposed problems awaiting figure skating archivists, particularly in respect to copyrights:

The price to get the right to display even one five minute performance is quite shocking!!

Thanks to Tatsuki for doing this!

Sounds super interesting! I definitely want to read this, and I have a stupid question since I'm still fairly new to Twitter - can one read it without downloading it? Because it's tiny and zooming in does not work on it.

Klick on it once, then click right and choose "open pic in a new tab" or similar. Then it's super easy to zoom. Repeat with every page.

oh I just saw I can use the links to embed them here hope that's okay?

I’ve uploaded the broadcast (I’ll take it down again in a few days) – it was a pretty good programme (as far as I can tell from the automatic translation) – I found the account of the early days of show skating particularly interesting:
