I love how dramatically they played the role.

(14-15) Lord of the Dance, Reel Around the Sun, Nocturne and Warriors

This is where I got hooked on Charlene & Marco

This is a program I fell in love at first sight with for Charlene & Marco! Seeing them dance with such energy and passion to the beat of Riverdance was truly a sight to behold. It made me so happy to see such a charming couple from Italy. Even after almost a decade of performing at the top of their game and perfecting their style, I still can't help but feel my heart skip a beat when I watch them dance their Riverdance with their shining natural charm. I just love them to bits!

I was just amazed by this program. I mean, seriously, what kind of speed are these people at?!

(15-16) Schindler's List

We should keep this program for future generations to enjoy !

I also love 'Exogenesis' and 'Atonement', and I was hesitant about which program to choose... It's too difficult to choose just one! But the one that moved me the most was 'Schindler's List'.

I was really drawn in by the emotional yet quiet performance. After watching this program, I became a big fan!

Charlene from "Schindler's List" is absolutely stunning and charming. I love her.

While "Schindler's List" can be quite abstract in its portrayal of sadness, the two characters in this program feel so real that it's like reliving their lives. I've never seen a program that so powerfully captures the struggle to survive in a world that can be so cruel and unfair, even when they are dragged through the mud and pulled every which way.

I hold them in high regard as an ice dancing pair who possess the rare ability to convey a sense of darkness. I love their programs that leave a profound emotional impact on everyone.

This program is overflowing with charm as Charlene and Marco express the story, and it particularly left a strong impression on me.

After watching "Schindler's List", I totally became a fan of Cherlene & Marco. The program was exceptionally powerful, conveying a sense of realism and emotional depth that left a lasting impact on me. As I watched, I found myself wondering about the fate of the people depicted in the story. Did they have young children, and did they survive the atrocities of the war? It was heartbreaking to think how much happier their lives could have been without such senseless war. One aspect that particularly stood out to me was Charlene's ability to express deep emotions even in the rotational lift. The portrayal of angst and turmoil was truly remarkable.

It's a program that I still look at regularly. Their performance was so heartfelt and sincere that it brought tears to my eyes, even though they portrayed heavy and difficult themes. We should remember that there are many anonymous couples like them in real life, carrying the burden of pain and sadness.

When I watched "Schindler's List", I was shocked. The program was not just beautiful, but also able to convey some heavy historical facts.

(16-17) The Nutcracker

The matured and sophisticated version of the Nutcracker. Very innovative with its original interpretation and costumes.

It's always tough to choose just one masterpiece from all of their amazing free dance programs, but if I had to pick, it would be "The Nutcracker". From the airy RoLi at the very beginning, it draws you immediately into the world of the music, and Charlene and Marco glide smoothly on the ice, as if they are becoming the notes themselves. I believe it's an amazing program that you can never get enough of, even when you watch it repeatedly or just think about it. It's truly timeless and doesn't follow any specific trends or fads. And let's not forget those charming costumes adorned with music notes!

(17-18) Exogenesis

I saw the "Exogenesis" at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics venue. Even though their RD didn't go as planned, their performance was so breathtaking and it moved me deeply. I still watch the video from time to time.

Beautiful music and just beautiful skating.
I remember the Olympic performance, of course, but especially the excitement of the Worlds in Milan, their hometown, and the excitement of the audience. I am so glad to have seen this performance in Milan. The tears that Charlene shed after the performance were really beautiful.

This is a program that sticks deeply in your mind with beautiful skating and music.

(18-19) La La Land

Makes me want to dance together!

I don't think there's a program out there that captures the mature, sophisticated La La Land quite like this one!

Although many skaters have performed to the theme of this movie, I believe this program is the most beautiful and closest to the original La La Land. I especially loved it as it brought back fond memories of watching charlène and Marco's performance live for the first time at the World Championships in Saitama.

A program that perfectly captures the essence of La La Land, only matured grown-ups can perform!

I just love the world they create together. There were so many skaters who sakted to the same movie theme, but charlène and Marco's is the best. I've watched it over and over again.

This program is what I'd show someone who hasn't seen the movie yet and say, "This is the La La Land that I love!"

I was blown away by how charlène and Marco brought the world of La La Land to life in their performance when I saw this program at the World in Saitama!

This program was stylish and chic, and really showcased the bright and cheerful charm of the two of them.

The program had a thrilling and fast-paced energy that reminded me of the original movie, and I can't help but feel captivated every time I watch it. Also, the costumes were absolutely fabulous.

I absolutely loved the bright green costume! The steps were so inviting, it made me feel happy every time I watched it and made me want to dance along!

It's a bit late, but around the 2018 season, I finally realized just how amazing Marco is! And seeing what this couple can do together made me realize how unique the world they can create, which made me fall in love with them!

I fell in love with charlène & Marco while watching their "La La Land" at the World in Saitama four years ago. The kiss scene in the middle was just too beautiful! It was a wonderful work that reminded me of "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg", which is the backbone of the movie!

Perfect costumes and storytelling.

Unison is definitely the key! The seamless coordination, combined with the music, is simply breathtaking!! Especially "La La Land", which holds a special place in my heart since I saw it live.

Many skaters performed to "La La Land", but I chose this program because it just made me so happy to watch. I also loved charlène's costume, which was simple but elegant, with a perfect balance of showing the neckline and skirt movement.

I love charlène's green costume in the "La La Land"!

I loved the "La La Land" program because it was full of bright and lively movements, yet it also had plenty of emotions woven in. I can't forget the heart-wrenching Tango RD they did in the same season either!

"La La Land" - I really love this program that strongly expresses the storytelling of Chalrene and Marco. The program's range of emotions is always a little broader and more positive than what I'm capable of feeling, so every time I watch it, my heart becomes richer. However, it's not too far from what I'm capable of, so I don't end up carrying an unbearable burden with me when it's over. It's a dance that always leaves me feeling fulfilled. I love it. I truly admire the depth of their emotions, the way they embrace both beauty and darkness, and their ability to move forward with such a deep sense of openness.

The program that makes me feel brightness and warmth. The program embodies exactly charlène and Marco themselves.

It was such a satisfying program that made me feel like I had just watched a whole movie in a short amount of time. Their performance was like a story unholding right in front of my eyes. There is a perfect balance of speed, seamless and smooth movements in their skating! I became a fan after watching this program.

The performances were amazing, you could really feel the nuances of the story throughout. Especially towards the end, it deeply moved my heart.

This program made me cry so many times... It just reminds me how wonderful love can be. It even made me want to fall in love all over again.
I really loved the happy version they performed in this season's gala too. I'd be thrilled to watch it all over again if I could.

I could sense the world so vividly, even though I hadn't actually watched the movie yet.

Their costumes were beautiful, and the way they moved to the music was so wonderful and unique, only charlène and Marco can do! It was really cool to see how everything fit together so well in the program, and I could watch it over and over without ever getting bored.

The happiness that can only be obtained by pursuing your dreams, and the happiness that you must let go of because of it. Both the bitter and the sweet were expressed in this program, and it was so moving that it made me cry more than the actual movie.

charlène's sparkling, bubbly energy and the joy she exuded were particularly amazing.

Their monumental program with their first medals at the Grand Prix Series, GPF, and European Championships!
I feel that everything they have accumulated so far bloomed beautifully with this wonderful program. The beauty of love, happiness and fragility, painful... I believe that only Charlène and Marco could have performed this program.

Charlène's green dress, necklace and earrings were so cute!

(19-20) Devid Bowie Medoley

This program is the one that made me fall in love with charlène & Marco for the first time after watching the European Championship and seeing their performance!
To be honest, it was their RD of that season that made me fall in love, more than their FD!
I was blown away by the crazy positions they pulled off in their StLi, and their Tw was so thrilling and matched the music perfectly. And don't even get me started on their unique PD, which really showed off their personalities and made me fall in love with them even more!

I'm a huge David Bowie fan, but it was pretty rare to hear his music in figure skating programs because his songs had been usually dealt with some pretty heavy themes until he finally captured the theme of love for the first time in "Let's Dance". I was so happy to see that they chose to use Bowie's music, and even more excited that they picked my favorite song of his, "Space Oddity".

Firstly, I love the music. Also, I am truly attracted by the style of their performance - they don't seem to emphasize or play up the fact that they're a man and a woman (even though they're a couple in real life!). It's like they're able to break free from gender norms and just perform without any restrictions, which makes their ice dance routine totally one-of-a-kind.

I can't get over the performance Marco and charlène did when Marco injured his wrist. I was watching holding tears in my eyes, wondering how they were going to do the lift. But then they pulled off the most amazing StLi, with charlène showing off her amazing core strength while making sure not to put too much pressure on Marco's wrist. It was intense and beautiful at the same time, and it really showcased their talent and love for each other.

I never expected them to skate with my eternal idol and charisma, "David Bowie"!
The fact that they dared to use a non-David Bowie for "Life on Mars?" is also very interesting.
And look at charlène's makeup!
I think this season was not spent as expected due to Marco's hand injury. But I think charlène's fierce effort and support and Marco's spirit sublimated this program.

(20-21,21-22) Atonement and Little Sparrow

"Atonement and Little Sparrow" was a magical program that evoked various emotions each time I watched it. Every time I watched it, it made me feel all sorts of emotions that were different each time.
And when it came to the end, the choreo slide and lift always got me so emotional that I couldn't help but cry as they did their final dance spin...

I absolutely love watching "Atonement and Little Sparrow". It is like watching a movie or reading a story they bring out. The propulsion of the lifts is fantastic, and my emotions are stirred! It's so touching when Marco kisses charlène's hand too. It's so cute to see their coach dancing along during their performance...
I'm rooting for the Italian team! I hope charlène and Marco can keep competing for a long time, and even if they retire from competition, I'd love to see them perform in shows. Good luck at the upcoming WTT♡
I was lucky enough to see them live at the World and it was truly amazing. Thanks for coming to Japan!

Although the program is based on an actual movie, it does not simply trace the story of the movie, but feels like another beautiful and ephemeral story that expresses the world of two people.
Also, I think Marco looks best in suspender among all ice dancers!

I just absolutely love everything about this program, from the music to the choreography to the costumes, from start to finish.

This program draws you into the story from the beginning with the sound of the typewriter, and the performance makes you feel the passion and emotion the skaters have. After watching it, you're left with a feeling like you just finished watching a great movie.

The program "Atonement and Little Sparrow" made me feel like I was watching a movie or a stage performance. It was so touching that my heart felt tight and it even made me cry. It was truly a work of art. I fell in love with the two of them when I saw their performance of "La La Land" at the 2019 World Championships. I'm so disappointed that I cannot attend this time, but I will continue to cheer them on!

Definitely "Atonement". This is the program that made me a fan of charlène & Marco.

I don't know much about the technical aspects, but it was a moving program that felt like watching a poignant movie.

I believe this program best captures the worldview of the story.

The world that only those two can bring to life is truly incredible.

I really love the choreography of choreo char step seq!

I really love the "Atonement" program, and it made me so happy to hear that it will continue during the Olympic season. The first time I saw the flow of doing a stationary lift followed by a rotational lift, it completely took my breath away. And I also love how charlène shows her emotions during the knee slide.

It's incredibly beautiful that it leaves you speechless. Even tales of sadness and struggle take on a glimmer of hope when acted out by charlène and Marco.

Whenever I watch this program, I can't help but feel tears rolling down my face. I absolutely adore it because it's so beautiful and heartwarming to see the two truly care for one another.

I couldn't decide on just one, so I ended up picking two instead. The programs from 2020 to 2022 are like beautiful short movies. I remember the first time I saw them, I couldn't stop my tears.

I was amazed by their skating when I saw it live for the first time. I remember that the costumes were also very beautiful.

Every time I watch this program since it was first performed at the Grand Premio in 2020, it never fails to move me to tears. The program was not only about Cecilia and Robbie's tragic love, but also about the universal sadness of separation that we all felt at that time. It reminded me of all the families and friends who were worried about their future and whether they would see each other again. I also thought about the many people who couldn't say goodbye to their loved ones properly due to the lockdown in Italy, and had to watch their funerals from a distance, shedding countless tears. When I watched CuLi pour their heart and soul into expressing the grief and longing that I couldn't put into words, I felt a sense of relief as my own emotions were untangled by my tears. I truly believe that this program had a significant impact on this era, as it had the power to empathize with people's sadness and bring them comfort.

There have been so many amazing programs in recent years, and it's tough to pick just one favorite because they're all so different and incredible. But out of all of them, "Atonement" hit me right in the feels and was hands-down the most emotional and touching program ever.

(22-23) My Love Will Never Die and Mephisto's Lullaby

I really enjoy both programs this season. They make me feel thrilling and give me goosebumps, like watching a suspense movie!

I picked this program because I saw them live at the World Championships in Saitama and I witnessed how amazing the two were.

I like the costumes, as well as the every details of this program.

The poses of the two performers in the beginning and middle are really cool. And those confident expressions they make during the lifts are just amazing! Plus, I just love charlène's makeup.

I think that the final pose is splendid and perfectly complements the music. Additionally, I appreciate the thought put into the program's structure, starting with a dance spin and incorporating a stationary lift and rotational lift in the middle.

I really loved the way the duo blended darkness and purity in their performance - it felt like a grown-up fairy tale come to life! It definitely added a whole new level of charm to them.

I really love this season's program - it has a dark, ominous feel with a hint of enchantment that keeps me hooked!

I've had the pleasure of watching this program every time they performed it this season, and I must say, it just keeps getting better and better with each iteration. The program strikes a perfect balance between sharpness and delicate beauty, and I find myself able to watch it repeatedly without ever losing interest. I'm particularly fond of how the curve lifts and rotational lifts are seamlessly incorporated into the overall program, creating a truly beautiful spectacle to behold.

I have to say, watching those two skate to such a unique story was a breath of fresh air! The way they incorporated their organic and mystical movements into every lift and hold was simply mesmerizing, and it felt like they were inviting us all into this otherworldly realm they had created.

I absolutely loved their free dance program this season! It's extra special to me because I got to see it in person at the World Figure Skating Championships, where they won their first ever world medal with this stunning performance. It truly gave me chills and left me deeply moved.

Can't pick just one!

I always see a story in these two's performances. Escially the three FDs I chose ("Schindler's List", "La La Land" and "Atonement") are amazing - the essence of these movies is perfectly captured in just four minutes. Every time I watch them, I feel like my heart is about to burst with excitement.

When I watch other ice dance couples, I usually end up paying more attention to one partner than the other, but with charlène and Marco, I just can't decide! I want to watch them both equally, and it keeps me glued to the screen (laughs). I chose two of their programs "Schindler's List" and "Atonement" this time, their dramatic and theatrical expression in the two programs really stayed with me. And both programs left a warm and fuzzy feeling in my heart that lasted long after the performance ended. Even though their programs weren't flashy, they managed to touch my emotions and leave a lasting impact on me. I absolutely adore them!

I love their expression! I love how they can perform a wide variety of programs, from emotional and heartbreaking to stylish and cool, or cute and playful, and even wicked and villainous!

To be honest, I love them all! Each program has a unique style, and the costumes, hair, and makeup are all wonderfully designed to fit the story. I especially love the way 'La La Land' portrays a bittersweet love story that can tug at your heartstrings.

My absolute favorite thing about these two is their speed! Of course, their footwork skills, extension of stroke, and emotional connection all add to the package, but that feeling of being swept away by their unity is what really gets me. Honestly, I can't even pick a favorite moment from a particular program because it's all so amazing. I bet I agree with everyone else's favorite parts, haha! (By the way, my favorite program from SD, RD has to be this season's Latin dance, Marco's matured skating was shining!)

Their costumes are always so beautiful that I can't pick a favorite one. And as the season goes on, I feel like their unity has been getting better and better, which is really impressive.

"Schindler's List," "La La Land," and "Atonement" are my personal top 3 of charlène & Marco's ! All the elements vividly tell the story. I think these programs make to expand the viewer's imagination.

I love them all, but "Exogenesis", "La La Land", "Atonement and Little Sparrow", and "My Love will Never Die and Mephisto's Lullaby" are the programs that I repeatedly warch.
