World Championships 2010

Thanks Malika.
Language is getting used to it than learning it ... that's what I was told.

I am shocked that Nobu didn't qualify for the LP !
I hope this doesn't affect Miki ... those two are always close together that they sort of catch resonance of each other, Miki once said.

Oh well, now she's the carp on the cutting board, that's how we say in Japanese.

In English? ... well, "now that Miki has no choice but to take it, better take it straight, it's easier to overcome that way."
Better translation from Malika, I hope...

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Nobunari's SP. I feel so bad for him.

That's a gorgeous photo of Miki, malika!

(Yep, Miki's fans rule!)

We're awsome!

Oh yeah, Malika's Miki's pic determined yet beautiful all the same. Good info on men's SP also. Awesome and forever loyal to our ice queen Miki.

Look at her intense face! Gorgeous

That's one of the many things I love about Miki. Her INTENSITY and EMOTION.

That is a shocker about Nobu. Hopefully, he will be okay at his next competition, and hopefully this won't influence Miki in any way.

OMG! Qing & Jian won!



Replace Yuko & Alexander with Dan & Hao and that would be my dream podium!



Congratulations to all medalists!

A video!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWZhQGLlV5Y

It shows Miki landing a 3Lz+3Lo! It looked underrotated, though.



Can someone translate what Miki said?



Go, Miki!

Better translation from Malika, I hope...

Oh sorcerer!!!
You gave me such difficult homework

But I don't think Miki is 'the carp on the cutting board'.
We should remember the Oly; although Nobu suffered a tragic accident,
Miki did her wonderful performances even though they're not her best

Anyway.... I'm so sorry for Nobu
What happened to him??
Nobu, don't forget you are always loved

I BELIEVE IN MIKI! She's a FIGHTER!!!
Even if she were the carp on the cutting board, she can jump up(3Lz-3Lo!!!) and escape to the river
Our queen can make it happen

I made a new montage vid for Miki

Great videos! I enjoyed them a lot!

And thanks for all of the news everybody! All of you guys' english is great!

I'm so so so sad and disappointed for Nobunari. Hope he feels better soon. I think the worst part for him is that he can't get "revenge" in the LP...

She said that she wants to give better performances in Turin than in Vancouver, and that she would be happy if she could be on the podium.

LOL Good one !!!

She can jump up, and land all her jumps !!!

Love your Miki and Shizuka video montages !!!

Yes, she can, Go Miki !!!

Awesome vids Malika. Shizuka & Miki: it just doesn't get any better. Beauty in motion. Love the "carp" comments. You Japanese girls are super awesome.

The Ladies' SP starts in less than seven hours, but Miki skates in about 14 hours! I can't wait!



Força, Miki!

Força, Miki!

Me too, lets keep our fingers crossed that Miki does well. She'll give it her best.

Go MIKI! We all are cheering for you no matter what! Just your smile makes me happy!

About 3 hours till Miki takes the ice with her Reqiuem SP !!

Never mind your results Miki, just pull that maximum Ando out !!
You are the one to turn all the agonies into Glory !
And that's what Requiem should be about !!

I saw the result of the SP, although I have not been able to watch it yet.

Miki, don't think about what happened in the SP.

Stay strong and do your best for the LP !!!

Remember Miki, we always support you, no matter what happens !!!

I second what DragonPhoenix says. We love Miki no matter. She's exhausted no doubt from the hectic schedule this year. Miki will bounce back in the FS. YuNa is 7th

Going to root for Mirai since she is from the USA to win it now. Miki is always number 1 to me, though. Hope she dazzles in her free skate, which we know she will.

Oh Miki.......

Although I haven't seen her performance yet, I found her interview after SP.

http://www.jiji.com/jc/c?g=spo_30&k=2010032700051

Translated into English:
I had a strong will to do 3-3.
I'm disappointed that I missed it but on the whole I think today's performance is better than my Oly's.
I've been keeping the motivation after the Oly.
In LP, I hope to make the audience feel good.

GO MIKI, YOU ARE LOVED

Here's Miki's photo!

Your translation is superb, Malika!

Miki, you can do it !!
Never give up, fight back !!
Show us the best and most of Ando!!

I was extremely nervous during Miki's performance.



Miki, don't ever give up! We will always believe in you and I hope you recognise that! Good luck for the LP!



Força, Miki! Ganbatte!
