快挙ですね、心から御目出度う！

You can tell how much she loves it. She's beautiful, very elegant, modest ballerina. Not only that, but also she has a charm, technique, and stage presence (that's important!). She's definitely deserves to be promoted to etoile. Thanks for this lovely interview!!

I remember seeing her perform Grand Pas Classics in Japan back in 2008 which was about a year before her career really took off. Out of all the dancers that day, she was hands down the most spirited and gifted dancer there. I’m so happy to see how far she’s gone with her career.
