#i'm reblogging myself deal with it#this is probably my favorite dai ex but it's hard for me to watch#because it's so raw and tender and emotional#but it's so...dai#i feel like he puts so much of himself into this program#he puts so much of himself into all of his programs#but there's something really honest and vulnerable about this one#four repeated notes and some harmony but kenji's choreo is genius#he does so little but it says so much#and what's so great about dai is that he understands the music#he doesn't try to overwhelm it with his skating he doesn't talk over it#he lets it carry him#it's so subtle#like a breath#and then he does the mambo encore and it's a COMPLETELY different character#but he embodies both#goddddddddd i just#have so many feelings#don't look at me#if he doesn't deserve 10s in interpretation i don't know who fucking does
