no translation yet but she will not compete next season and will take time off to decide whether or not she will retire

 

 

I think the new ISU rules will make it very hard for her return though, still saddening for me, it's hard to return to top form after taking a season off

 

still no word on Carolina Kostner but it's unlikely she'll retire at her age, I'm going to really miss the Holy Trinity (Yuna, Mao, Caro) ;-;

I expected this, but it still depresses me that I would not be able to see Mao slay the youngins again skate this season. However, her decision is understandable and we can always have The Ice! :chu:

Not surprising but wouldn't be surprised if she came back. Nice to see her end on a high note, winning Worlds a few months ago to get her 3rd world title.

Wouldn't be surprised either, woman loves to skate, when her mother died she decided to take a break from skating, only lasted 3 weeks and she was back on the ice, personally after following her for 8 full competitive seasons I'd like for her to retire because figure skating is a sport that can really mess up your hips, knees and back and I don't want her to push herself but if it's what she wants I can't stop her
