It seems that the JSF's website is still waiting for updates, but it's reported in the news that the All Japan National will be held in Osaka from Dec. 20 to 24.

Thanks! I'm a bit worried to see a number of Howa folk there, including Tatsuya and Rin, but no sota; and he's not entered in Iizuka Cup either where some other Howa skaters are. I'll just hope that maybe his programs aren't competition-ready yet, or that he's entered in Asian Open, or resting (best scenario to me).

Oh, OK, thanks. I couldn't find anything either, I just typed in 飯塚杯 and a couple of blogs had photos and info. It seems that in senior men, Hino won over Taichiro Yamakuma (2nd) and Ryo Sagami(?) (佐上凌) (3rd). Junior men - 1. Sena Miyake, 2. Kao Miura? (三浦佳生), 3. no idea - 國方勇樹 (someone called Kunikata?). For junior ladies, it says 1. 江川マリア(Egawa Maria?), and 2. 藤由妃乃 (Fujiyoshi?). Senior ladies, 1. 佐藤伊吹 (Satou?), 2. 中塩美悠 (Nakashio?), 3. 三宅咲き (Miyake?).
sorry I can't be of more help -_-

what competition is this one?
https://www.jsfresults.com/non_resp...re_top.htm,local/2018-2019/fs/13/01/index.htm

Ice dancer from Canada Lee Royer participated with Yuka Orihara, his new Japanese partner... Lee is a great talent and I would like to know if there is anything our there that perhaps implies they may compete for Japan?

Thanks for adding this! I was about to add information of this competition:

[Aug 24~26th] 'Tokyo Summer FS Trophy'
Venue: Tokyo
Participants: https://www.jsfresults.com/local/2018-2019/fs/13/01/2018kaki-07-29_kaltusoujyunn.pdf
Results: https://www.jsfresults.com/local/2018-2019/fs/13/01/index.htm
Participants: Sr. men - Daichi Miyata
Sr. ladies - Yuka Nagai; Matsubara Akari
Jr. men - Shun Sato; Kao Miura
Jr. Ladies - Rion Sumiyushi

Yes, Orihara and Lee pair was in the ice dance JR category. But I'm not sure their intention of taking part in this competition.

Adding: this is one of the summer local competitions in Japan, and also the last one. Afterwards the domestic competitions will move on to regional competitions.

thank you! can you inbox me or something if ever lee and yuka get into the Japanese system for domestic regional competitions? Words on the street say they will represent Canada but then, some rumours have started since Kana and Chris split that they should try to compete for Japan... they are a very promising team... whatever country they skate for, I will be cheering for them.

Thanks!
