allekha: Two people with long hair kissing with a heart in the corner (Default)

Hah, that is one bright side! I've narrowed it down to two bachelors - probably - in my game, though I don't think I'll decide for sure until I've seen all of their heart events. There's lots to do in the meantime!

The one time I tried to watch the JPG before I decided that it was not at all for me was when they still had live chat, and yeah, it was pretty bad and needed to go immediately. I seem to recall seeing racist comments in there as well :/ You get the occasional weirdo when Challengers stream with chats, but IME the people in them tend to behave better. (At least in English/Japanese. I tried copy-pasting some of the Russian chat at Lombardia into Google Translate out of curiosity, and there was some weird wank about the existence of puberty?)

Lol, I remember seeing some people who were absolutely convinced that the evil JSF would instantly hand over all of their international ice dance spots to the evil Kanadai the second they paired up. (I am far too out of tune with ice dance drama to understand why either they or team KoKo have hatedoms. I like them both? It felt like more domestic competition was good for team KoKo?) My impression was also that their lifts were way more solid, though the one-foot one still seems shaky, and that Daisuke was performing more and spending a lot less time visibly concentrating on the basic partnering aspects. Even at the level I've done dance, that stuff has been pretty hard to learn, especially for my partner. I saw a comparison with their FD from Nats last year, and the choreography was improved and has more nice touches to it now. Excited to see more from them!
