Thank you for asking me about a thread of THE ICE. @Sylvia, can you please start the thread in GSD? I think I'm kind of moving on. I mean I'm going back to myself between Midori and Mao, a light fan of this sport. I'm getting addicted to growing roses in my (new) garden these days.Yes, rosewood is from Japan. @rosewood, do you want to start the thread for THE ICE in GSD now or wait for more skaters to be confirmed? Thank you so much & for taking the time to translate Mao's retirement press conference in the GSD thread: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/in...rite-memories-here.101061/page-7#post-5058840
ETA a small anecdote: I got in the elevator at the official 2016 Worlds hotel in Boston and only realized after the door had closed that Mao Asada and a woman accompanying her were the other 2 people in there with me. I didn't say anything to her but remember thinking "this is really cool that I'm in the elevator with Mao Asada and she's not surrounded by tons of fans, just me."
My one big regret was not attending her JGP debut in Long Beach, California in 2004 - that would have been . I'm so glad I was in Kitchener to witness her win 2005 Junior Worlds in person!
Oh, I'm sorry you aren't planning to post as actively here anymore -- your "rough translations/summaries" of Japanese skater news articles & videos were always appreciated so much by me and many others here! Arigato dear @rosewood and please continue to drop by when you feel like it. I hope the roses flourish well in your garden!I think I'm kind of moving on.

Happy to know you had special moments about Mao. I'm jealous!
Oh boy, we lose not only Mao but you too? This is too sad! What about Mao's show skating? - it will be fabulous! What about Shoma, Yuzu, Marin and Mai?Thank you for asking me about a thread of THE ICE. @Sylvia, can you please start the thread in GSD? I think I'm kind of moving on.
