I'm very proud of her. Her goal initially was just to improve her position from the previous olympics and she did it! The fact that she was one of the only six female skaters who got qualified for the 2nd olympics this year is already an achievement. Congrats Kaori! I'm supporting you always! I hope your dream to get qualified for the 3rd olympics in milan comes true 😄

Kaori sakamoto REPRESENTING. Only woman in the gpf with other 5 russians with ultra c elements. Now standing on the olympic podium amongst them with her amazing artistry and insane skill. No overscoring. No bonuses. Just talent

[@niln7967]

Are you here to support Japanese, or you came to hate Russians??? Both russians won fairly and Japanese supporting them ,athletes like kaori are respected not just for their talent but more importantly for their sportsmanship, they don't need people like you ruining their reputation.

[@fringe9068]

@@niln7967 who said anything about the other two not winning fairly? You did. Everyone knows the russians are hugely overscored and that they don’t need it because they perform at a high level of technical difficulty. Which i’ve said multiple times on this channel. I said on my comment they are landing ultra c elements which is known to be very hard, with all that in mind Kaori competing with them is VERY impressive in my opinion. Funny enough I thought sasha should’ve won (my personal opinion ofc she’s my fave) since she did 5 quads. Did she deserve 70 pcs? No, but the others pcs shouldn’t be as high imo even if you lowered hers. The gap is not insurmountable with 5 quads. That’s the entire point. Overacored pcs, insane technicality seen only in the men’s competition. Anyone competing with that is talented and impressive and pointing it out is deserved.

[@user-ys3rp6kw5y]

@@fringe9068 so who should win? Girls with 3-2 and without ultra si?

[@lulunimation9787]

No overscoring or no bonuses? Eversince the introduction of the point system, the OLYMPICS is the biggest competition where overscoring and bonuses is normal, and it is a norm. From single skating to pairs or dance, everything and everyone is overscored during the olympics.

[@zonedutopia]

She should be first - she is the only one with no prerotation on her ultra c and triples. Judges don't punish tutberitze skaters for years for those mistakes. Also Kaori has way more artistic presence than Trusova which was also treated like it wasn't there. ISU judges are corrupted for years now.

She is also clearly extremely athletic, which is really what the Olympics are about, athletics - the complete package

[@ezen-harttjonathaniberion8227]

Yess!! Quads are great..but without artistry, seriously I don't think it is what we call figure skating. This here, is FS in its truest essence. Reminds me to the era where you can see the art as well as the athleticism. Now it's like all about quads. So I'm really happy that despite the drama, Kaori got the podium she deserved.

[@omyogagal]

On the contrary those gold and silver medalists' free skates are so forgettable, and I'm not even interested in rewatching them at all. I rewatched Kaori's both programs many times since the Games and each time I was moved and in awe of her flying across the ice like superwoman!

[@swanoud]

@@ezen-harttjonathaniberion8227 valieva's short program is absolutely amazing. How can you be so jealous about these "quads", yes Trusova hasn't any artistic vibe but Shcherbakova and especially Valieva have so much talent and combine athleticism and artistry. I'm sure that if women other than the Russians knew how to do quad jumps, no one would point out that it's a scandal. I really have the impression that there is an Asian fetishism in figure skating and a Russophobia since 2014 and the "Sotnikova-gate". Please, accept Russian athletes, and I'm sure that in few years, asian women skaters will be know to do quads, because this is the evolution of the sport.

You don't need to land quads to be great. Sakamoto was the only saving point of this competition. I said it before but it's like baseball, you don't have to hit homeruns to win the game, you got to perfect all your other talents, running, catching, pitching etc. Sakamoto perfects all other points, she doesn't need to do quads or put her whole program based on them. That's why this is her second Olympics and you'll probably see her in 2026 as well.

She'll definitely be back. She said she's aiming for it! And since she has quality skill, and method (clearly, because she didn't have to retire by 18) she will have a long career. Can't wait to see her skate again. (Also, if they raise the age limit to prevent the exploitation of underaged skaters, as the recent scandals have brought to light, maybe she'll be back with gold next time~!)
