Worlds is over but Worlds is also cancelled. Any Worlds that makes Shoma Uno cry is not a Worlds I want to be part of. Any Worlds that puts Vincent Zhou, trump supporter, in front of Shoma Uno and like fifty other skaters I'd rather see with bronze is a Bad Worlds. Japan being the host didn't help team Japan at all despite having several medal favorites. The only Japanese medalist was Yuzuru.

Other than bronze, I'm fine with the podium. Nathan really brought everything and deserved the title, and Yuzuru came back from injury with two great performances. They were amazing to watch back-to-back!

I'm so heartbroken for Shoma though and a little worried. He and Yuzuru both looked off, but Shoma especially, and it was really strange. It could have just been nerves getting to him in the end, which is rare but happens to everyone. Either way I'm really sad that it took a huge hit to Shoma's self-esteem based on what he's said about himself when interviewed right afterwards. Hopefully today he's less hard on himself and he takes his accomplishments from this season to heart, because he has a lot to be proud of.

I'm so glad this competition is done though. I've never seen something go from looking so good to being so terrible.
