| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgOK4CYIGK4I don't have time to translate right now, but basically it is about how Mai sort of lost her confidence and motivation last year, but now has a new coach (Takeshi Honda), who helped her work little by little on everything, and now she found her motivation again. She did make one comparison to Mao - she said that unlike Mao, she is a little soft on herself and when things get tough, she can't work hard. Ganbare Mai-chan! I hope you do well at Nationals!!! | |

| I hope Mai does well at Nationals. She's a lovely skater, and at the beginning of 06-07 season I almost hd trouble telling her apart from Mao when they skated together in practice sessions. Unfortunately, it looked as if she lost her confidence, which, in addition to injuries, stopped her developement as a skater. I'm glad she feels more motivated now. It would be great to see her skate well. Good luck, Mai! | |
