She's the best they could find in over 10,000 contestants? Wow. I'd hate to hear the others.

Wow, her voice is literally shaking because of how nervous she is. Not that I can blame her, that shit is terrifying.

Himeka was way better back in 2008, she's simply awesome!

Well to be fair, this was an early round performance. I assume she simply didn't know the song as well or got a lot more confidence for the later rounds. It would be interesting to compare it to her final performance of Infinity if it is floating around.
