120 for Suzuki is great, I wonder if the others will catch her or not

Lovely Akiko!!!
Now would it be a first if Kanako actually moves up in the freeskate? In this field could (should?) surely happen...
lovely

technically very good but the skate left me very cold - where is the charming Kanako from two years ago?
Murakami: what a dancer. I loved this program and her performance. If only she didn't look down so much.

Kanako is adorable, and her posture has improved a bit, but she really needs to work on her extension. And that horrible layback!![]()
Omg Murakami is bringing it! Hell yes!!!!
Really enjoyed that from Kanako!![]()
WOW!!! I love this program! She moves so gorgeously on ice![]()
Dear Kanako,
Your jumps are great, but please PLEASE fix your layback spin, such an ugly freeleg position with the bent limp knee and the foot just hanging. Thanks!
Best I've seen her skate in awhile though!![]()
Murakami looked downright scared until the last minute of her program. She has lost some of the spunk over the years.
Jump teknik is horrid.
She's adorable as soon as she finishes!

The audience could not seem any more unimpressed the barrage of triples from Murakami.![]()
I have a hard time watching Murakami. Too many weird technique flaws just disrupt everything for me. I think she learned her lutz & flip from Caroline Zhang.
