He's wonderful, that kind of skater you just can't take your eyes off of. He really suits the classical music, so elegant and musical. Can't wait to see him in the final!

長光コーチ、心から美しいと感嘆できる素敵な選手を育ててくださってありがとう。彼の演技から心が浄化されます。彼のこの1年のめざましい成長、昨年の全日本からとても上手になりました。本当に素晴らしい選手。

[@lewlite5282]

流れるような美しいスケーティング。 あっという間に魅了されました。ドア近くのスタッフもニコニコ！！！ 次戦も頑張ってください。応援しています！

[@Yuzulove_82y]

冒頭のアクセル、離着氷がとても美しく伸びやかで感動しました。柔軟性と力強さが共存していて、本当に素敵な滑りです。ずっと見ていたくなる魅力を感じました。

[@Karen0299]

I really liked him✨. I've been watching his programs for a while now and he's getting better and better, good flow, smooth jumps and a good connection with the music as well, which should regain more importance in figure skating nowadays. 👏👏

[@あゆみ-x4m2p]

なんて素敵な演技✨😭💖 ほんとに強くなりましたね！ 優勝おめでとう🎉‼️ 連戦、身体に気をつけてね✨

[@kasvinimuniandy4178]

This skater has style! And he works hard to interpret the music... excited to see more of him!

[@mizu2in]

Love his smooth style, so glad to happen on this. His jumps are so solid, and connection with the music just makes him a pleasure to watch

[@Snezhinka]

Beautiful performance as usual! I love Takeru’s glide and polish. It’s easy being his fan because his jumps are so solid I never have to worry about him having an implosion skate.

[@quistis-trape]

Soulful performance and such an amazing 3A! he works really hard to be at this point, and I truly want to see more of his beautiful performance in the future!

[@ネモフィラ-l1i]

elegance and beautiful ❣️✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

[@taskiiiworld]

Omgg takeru is like yuzuru x keiji, with the same program with Yuzuru, it feel so elegant. Especially those 3A

[@白猫-k7y]

この優勝まで彼の事は全く話題にもならなかった(少なくとも私は知らなかった)選手だけど コーチが長光さんだと知り、やっぱりつくコーチでこんなにも成長出来るもんなんだなぁと納得。 18歳だけどこれから成長期ならに遅咲きの選手として期待です!

[@manana4151]

ノービスの時の演技も物凄く表現力があって、ジャンプが高難度飛べるようになってほしい

[@karbozarc]

ファイナル進出おめでとう🎉

[@sachinas5338]

ただ力まかせに腕ブンブン振ったような演技じゃなく身体全体を使って丁寧な所が好きなんだよね。

[@7nana193]

ショートのほうが彼の良さを引きだしているプログラムに感じました 表現の素晴らしい選手なので様々なプログラムをこれからも演じて幅を広げて究極の踊れるダンサーになってほしいです

[@tarouhinomaru2688]

優勝おめでとうございます。 次戦は大好きなイタリア　エーニャですね！！ 連戦ですけどがんばってください。

[@マントマンクレヨン]

特に日本選手に対して見下したような書き込みが一部の外国人からあるのが不思議でならない。他国の選手には批判なんてないのに。やたら日本選手には辛口な書き込みが二つくらいはつく。ちなみに18歳以上で優勝してるのは今年は彼だけではない。

[@関又]

大体どこの国か想像できる。 日本人選手への誹謗をすることでしか溜飲を下げる事ができない模様。 決勝は日本人男子3枠で、切歯扼腕している可能性あり。

[@user-mc3hz2dv4x]

18才と戦うのはアンフェアとか言う人がいるけどさぁ. .　出場が可能なルールであってそれが当たり前で、今までずっとジュニアでは皆そうやって戦っていたじゃん ずっと 何を今さら、女子だったらむしろ幼いほうが有利になるんだけど

[@user-mc3hz2dv4x]

あと、シニアの年齢が上げられたので、これからもっとジュニアの高齢化が進みます

[@user-mc3hz2dv4x]

ライブ観ててトリプルアクセル降りた瞬間びっくりしました、少しづつ次世代育っているんですね

[@christmasrose8888]

これに4回転加えたらシニアでも通用するかも

[@akaidensya2000]

アクセルの跳び方が誰かに似てるな…

[@truvada9340]

Bored me to tears. This guy is already 18. What is he doing skating in the Junior GP? I can understand pairs and dance because of the smaller pool of skaters but singles?

[@fhcghvghgfg4706]

I agree. There is a big difference between 13,14 and 18 in the men's competition. It's unfair

[@jacknjack1969]

His execution is lack of musical and artistic passion .... moves , poses....between jumps and spins. The first thing that got my full attention was his bending forward all the time, the torso ....why？

[@letitiakearney2423]

I agree he’s a nice person but he lacks charisma on the ice and nothing special about him I’m afraid.

[@hbattagl]

Wow. What a mean way to say your personal impression.😢 I wonder if you have thought about how hard this skater had to work to even get here? As Mark said, he has been in junior competitions many times without significant results. These young skaters have to win fierce domestic competitions to be chosen to enter international competitions, and even after that they cannot decide which competitions they enter; it’s the federation’s decision depending on their results. I simply admire his efforts to finally get here; I am sure it would’ve been very hard to see your peers or younger skaters getting chosen to enter senior competitions but you aren’t.

[@Snezhinka]

Of the last five junior world champions, 3 were 16-17 when they won gold and 2 were 18. (I think one may have been 19 actually.) The junior men's field is dominated by skaters aged 16-18. That's always been the case. Skaters debut on the JGP circuit around 13-14 at the earliest & stay around until their home federation finds spots for them in senior international competitions or until they age out. Even prodigies like Kagiyama and Malinin stayed in junior until they turned 16. There is absolutely nothing strange or unfair about letting 18-year-olds compete in junior; younger skaters like Seo and Nakata here have years to polish their skating skills, learn harder jumps & rise to the top of international competition. The junior circuit is not designed to be dominated by 13-year-olds. Clearly the two skaters I mentioned have a lot of fans who feel butthurt that they lost to an older and more capable competitor, but that's how it goes in sports. Sour grapes comments alleging a teenager is too old for junior competition just make you look irrational. As for the claim Kataise's beautiful, fluid skating is boring, all I can say is, get some taste!
