Kazuki Tomono likely new SP Charlie Chaplin

so pretty

I start to find these "We don't have another Mao/Yuna/whoever" sentiments beyond ridiculous. Is Mai's career not dramatic enough? Was Satoko's career really so short? (in fact, it was longer than Yuna's - 9 senior seasons) Isn't Kaori world champion? Is Wakaba really so forgetable? Don't we have a lot of European ladies doing very well recently, like Loena or Eva-Lotta? Have anyone tried to find interviews with them? Or are Russian ladies the only ones worth following and celebrating? Especially when some of the examples Brian gave really aren't THAT spectacular. Sumners - 4 seasons in seniors, 1 WC gold, 1 Olympic silver. Retired right after Olympics, when she was 20. Fleming - 5 seasons in seniors, 1 bronze and 3 gold WC, 1 Olympic gold. Retired right after Olympics, when she was 20. Hamill - 5 seasons in seniors, 2 silver and 1 gold WC, 1 Olympic gold. Retired right after Olympics, when she was 20. Hello? Kaori is supposed to be worse next to this? Besides, of course there aren't one or two dominating figures anymore like it was decade or so ago. The ladies field is too deep for this. Now one misstep too much means that someone else will take your place. And it's good! What other sport complains that they have too many athletes?

I think it were just Japanese media blowing it out of proportion, because hype about 4a is ENORMOUS since JNats 2020. Iirc Yomiuri first called it "first certified 4a". Or maybe it was nikkan? Whatever. "First certified 4a" is clicking and selling well.

I actually find it a bit funny, because 2018 - We need to implement -/+ 5 scoring system, because only this way we can properly evaluate our #sophiscated sport. 2019 - (ice dance) But it's hard for us, maybe consider -/+ 7? 2022 - Actually, we are too dumb, let's reduce components to 3. spoiler: It won't change anything anyway.
