Rion just doesn’t have the natural grace of most Japanese skaters. And she missed her combo which buries her.
 
Sumiyoshi - tinkly piano music which doesn’t do much for her skating - pastel chiffon dress my 5 year old niece would love - problems on the combo (3 turns out of the lutz, close to the boards on the toe) - nice flow in the step sequence
 
Liu - toepicks herself on the way to her starting pose - dirgey love duet - going for 3L-3R in the second half but tight and steps out - nice spreadeagles in and out of 2ax at the start (presumably placeholder for 3ax).
 
Gupta Espada - Malagueña - tech isn’t there yet but nice presence. Hope she can get minimums to come to Sheffield.
 
Loved Liu. Hated the female singer's voice :) can she be replaced with a flute?
I had Yuko Sato popping into my head watching Liu
The lady singer is Laufey. Alysa performed her SP last season to Laufey. It turned out to be the best SP at Worlds. This one might do a slow burn too but I'm not feeling it yet. I am however AMAZED that Alysa went for a new combo (for her), the 3L+3R, this early in the season, and in the bonus no less!! 😳

I like Sarah's Riverdance SP. The fast pace works for her mostly expressionless performance.

I enjoyed Alysa but found the music rather dull. She has enough charm to carry it off though. A lot of problems from Rino on the jumps but man those skating skills are gorgeous.
 
Gorgeous skate from Lara! :cheer2: I was worried that long pause to get Seoyoung's scores would unnerve her, but nope, not today.
 
Someone has posted Alysa’s SP on Instagram. She looks like she is in very good shape unlike last year at this time the program doesn’t yet have the magic, but it is very good. Love the gutsy combo in the second half. She has come to play!
 
3Z+3L in the second half seems like a trap. I admire her guts for trying that, but will surprised if that ends up being kept all season.

The program is fine, lovely skating and her movement is very nice. But it’s clearly Promise 2.0 and when skaters do this, they almost always would have been better off just repeating the 1.0.

This is superficial, but if she’s going to keep that dress with the scarf thing and the stuff on the neck line, her hair needs to be up in a bun. Or a higher ponytail. There is just too much stuff flapping around her neck and back right now. This is an aesthetic sport at the end of the day and this combination of hair and dress is hurting her line.
