edit
Mihara began the season on theGrand Prixat the2022 MK John Wilson TrophyinSheffield.Despite an error on the triple flip, she won the short program, finishing 0.17 points ahead of American skaterIsabeau Levito.She won the free program by a wider margin after a clean skate, taking her first Grand Prix gold medal. Mihara reflected that her win at the event was "maybe the biggest happiness it gave to me".[55]Her second assignment, the2022 Grand Prix of Espoo,was widely regarded as a contest between her and Belgium'sLoena Hendrickx,thereigning World silver medalistwho had earlier won the2022 Grand Prix de France.Mihara placed second in the short program, 1.30 points behind Hendrickx.[56]Both she and Hendrickx made errors in the free skate segment, but Mihara took first overall, earning her second gold medal and qualifying to theGrand Prix Finalfor the first time in her career. She cited "a lot of regrets" about the free skate but said she was "happy to go to the Grand Prix Final."[57][58]
With the Final being held inTurin,Mihara was able to train with longtime friend and fellow qualifierKaori Sakamotoin the leadup, having not been able to train together for "such a long time." Mihara said she found it "very gratifying."[59]She finished second in the short program, 1.28 points behind Sakamoto and only 0.34 points ahead of third-place Hendrickx. Her score was a new personal best in the segment of 74.58.[60]Mihara went on to finish first in what the ISU itself characterized as a "turbulent" free skate segment, despite underrotating one jump and falling out of another, while frontrunner Sakamoto dropped off the podium entirely.[61]Mihara called the result "unbelievable."[59]TheOlympic Channelconcluded, "Mihara Mai is having the season of her dreams."[62]
Following her victory at the Final, Mihara entered the2022–23 Japan Championshipsas a title contender. She finished second in the short program with a 74.70 score, 3.09 points behind Sakamoto, after the second part of her jump combination was called underrotated.[63]She was second in the free skate as well, albeit 10.03 points behind Sakamoto, winning the silver medal and standing on the Japanese national podium for the first time in six years.[64]
Competing at her secondWinter World University Games(formerly Universiade), this time held inLake Placid,Mihara finished second in the short program behind Sakamoto. She won the free skate, taking the gold medal for a second time. She was on the third woman to win the event twice, afterMiwa FukuharaandTonia Kwiatkowski.[65]Mihara next appeared at theInternational Challenge Cupat the end of February, winning the silver medal. Sakamoto andMana Kawabejoined her on the podium in a Japanese sweep of the medals. She noted that she had missed some training recently as a result ofinfluenza.[66]
The2023 World Championshipswere scheduled to take place on home ice inSaitama,with Mihara attending the event for the first time since 2017. She finished third in the short program, winning a bronze small medal, despite underrotating the second part of her combination.[67]Several errors in the free skate dropped her to fifth. Afterwards, Mihara said she was "so frustrated, so much that I can't cry," adding that "one of my weaknesses is making mistakes in the last important event. I feel that I still have a long way to go to become a top athlete"[68][69]
Mihara was named to compete at theWorld Team Trophyfor the first time in six years, and said she was hoping to end her season on a high note following frustration with her performance in Saitama.[70]After making two errors on her jump combination in the short program, she placed fifth in that segment.[71]She was fifth in the free skate as well, dealing with some difficult jump landings.[72]Team Japan won the bronze medal.[73]
2023–2024 season
editMihara was scheduled to begin the season at the2023 CS Finlandia Trophyin October, but a "nagging" right ankle injury forced her to withdraw from that event. She subsequently withdrew also from her firstGrand Prixassignment, the2023 Cup of China,saying "I have done everything I can to treat and prepare for competition but have had to make the frustrating decision to withdraw. I hope I am raring to go on the next stage and that I can deliver a perfect performance."[74]She was able to compete at the2023 NHK Trophy,finishing in eighth place. Mihara said she "was very worried, but I really wanted to skate, do my best and not give up. I'm happy I made it."[75]
At the2023–24 Japan Championships,Mihara finished fourth in the short program despite quarter-underrotation calls on two of her triple jumps and an incorrect edge call.[76]She had two quarter-underrotation calls in the free skate as well, coming fifth overall. Reflecting on her season, Mihara said she "didn't have many satisfying run-throughs" in the leadup to the championships, adding "I'm very relieved that I made it to the end thanks to my coaches and everyone's support."[77]
Mihara was assigned to finish the season at the2024 Four Continents Championships,where she came fifth in the short program despite falling on her jump combination.[78]A seventh-place free skate, in which she performed only three clean triple jumps after doubling three other planned ones, saw her seventh overall. Mihara assessed afterward that "I don't think I can finish here after all. I hope I can get my mind and body back together and move on to next season and beyond."[79]
2024–2025 season
editStill not fully recovered from thestress fracturein her right ankle that she had sustained the previous season, Mihara began the season by winning bronze at the2024 Asian Open Trophy.[48][80]Going on to compete on the2024–25 Grand Prixcircuit, Mihara would finish seventh at the2024 Grand Prix de Franceand eighth at the2024 Finlandia Trophy.[81]
