I just have to say how deeply sad I feel for them... Can't even imagine... Humanity needs a reset.

Kao being the legend and winning two competitions on the same weekend I hope he wins many more this season

'Feminism'? Seriously, it makes me so angry that someone feels like it's ok to have such opinions on something that 1) was most likely mutual decision of two involved people 2) is not anyone's business. I'm surprised he said anything at all.

OMG what a news, congratuations! I just shed a few happy tears, so pleased for him and the wife, AND totally impressed with going under the radar skills Wish them both a lifetime of love and happiness

Eh, since GIFT is now also available on Disney+ in Poland, I decided to ditch all my social obligations tonight and watch, and well now I'm emotional mess on Saturday night ;;;; Mr Hanyu still the only one who can do it to me. Just can't help to smile but also tears fly by themselves I only watched some parts before, I didn't even realize how much I needed this. (Even though I could get by without the dreadful feeling before he skated to Rondo, I mean, I knew of course he skated it clean, but I honestly felt like I moved in time and felt how important this was) Moving on now to watch all of my favourite Yuzuru programs and cry some more

No worries, it never happens. He could do it as his side project though

Geez, Yuzu's next career should be a supermodel. When I think not much about him can surprise me anymore, I see those absurdly good ELLE covers. What's next?!

No, not a lot videos of him anywhere

I was asking myself whatever am I doing spending my free evening on watching Men's at US Nats, but I already got my answer - Samuel Mindra (a skater I've never seen before) had a fantastic performance, I honestly don't care that he's not doing any quads, that is what real skating talent looks like. Skating skills and performance level WAY above current no. 1, even if it's never recognized, I'm glad I could see it.

I find it so funny that they literally broke the scoring in Men's SP and basically had to give Jason 50 PCS to try to reflect the difference in his skating in comparison to his competitor. Which they didn't, not even close Well, I already knew for a year that Malinin is Nathan 2.0, he will never have to work on his not jump-related skills, that doesn't matter in his case

Yeah it's weird, ok she earned the WC spot and others didn't but that she actually got 4CC as well... Strange. If not sending Kaori or Mai, why not Mana or Rika then. Or Yuna Aoki, she could still gry the minimums...

At least most of my fave skaters got something (Mai, Mone, Hana, Kao - plus Kaori but that was obvious from the very start). Pleased for Shun too, he was so close to podium that it would feel bad if he got nothing... And for Sota, even though he bombed the free, when he puts it together he is one of the best. I wanted Mone to go to Jr Worlds as well (honestly her SP in Gdańsk was probably the most beautiful thing I ever seen live ;;) but Mao and Ami are a good team. And I actually like Kao going since he wasn't selected for Senior WC... Gonna keep my everything for him to win this time

I read somewhere that Rinka is the only skater beside Kaori and Mai that met the selection criteria for this year. That would be weird because she finished 12th but actually the only possible selection for Worlds if they follow their own rules...

Thanks, maybe I will try it, the problem is I like to watch competitions the most without knowing the scores/results, and I don't know if I can avoid it for that long But that's an option.

I'm really sad I can't really rewatch Japanese Nationals anywhere I doubt I can watch anything live because work/travelling for christmas, and only few performances are archived... And this is one event I would really like to watch in full. Yeah... sad (yet the event from another country screams for me anytime I open internet )
