The “influence” of Yuzuru Hanyu (31), the professional skater who achieved two consecutive Olympic gold medals in men’s figure skating, has drawn surprise even from the host region of his performances. Yuzuru Hanyu's solo show, in which he both stars and produces, opened on the 11th at the Sekisui Heim Super Arena in Miyagi Prefecture. After performing his signature piece "SEIMEI," he unveiled a new piece, "PREQUEL," in the latter half of the show, eliciting a huge roar of applause from the 7,000 spectators gathered in the venue. Hanyu’s overwhelming popularity is also reflected in unexpected ways. The venue is located far from nearby train stations, and many fans are seen using taxis. One taxi driver commented, “It's especially crazy today. It's incredibly crowded because of the ice show, beyond anything you’d normally see.” The driver, who repeatedly shuttled between the venue and nearby stations, added, “It really helps us. Without taxis, passengers would have had a very hard time finding rides just waiting around.” One of the remarkable aspects of Hanyu’s performances is how they draw in and affect the surrounding area as well. While he avoided specifying when his next solo show will be held, saying only “I can’t say yet,” he noted that plans are already taking shape. Having completed his maintenance period, Hanyu said, “Things are changing rapidly right now, so I’m looking forward to continuing to skate from here on.” The exceptional skater continues to evolve further.

Yuzu is such a household name!

What is this shiny thing? Ashura-chan is trying to protect Haru-chan from Kaku.

Earthquake and tsunami warning off the Iwate coast Japanese Fanyus and iFans in Japan, please stay safe. Hoping for everyone's safety and that there will not be terrible damage. Feeling a lot of sympathy for Yuzu, since he mentioned in his interviews that the sensation of earthquake tremors makes him feel very scared and anxious

Yuzu's jump technique is textbook material!

Oh this is also good to know, I guess we will wait patiently for the mod team. I imagine maintaining this forum is a lot of work!

Okay so I introduced these guys in the pet thread. But I also want to post them in here cause I love my cats. This is Scarlett, Yardstick (he has only 3 feet), and Frumpkin.

While the issue is ongoing, DM me if you're looking for any specific videos, I'll try to see if I can find alternatives.

I noticed some of my posts I have written in the last day or so say a random date. Some say April 1st, some say i have posted in on april 18th 2025. Maybe the forum is being a little buggy. Don't know if other posts are not saying the right date but it might be hard to trust when a post is dated?

As the snow falls it introduces colour to the Prequel world

Oh my god 😭😭😭. I didn't notice! We dont know anything then lol

Wait a minute...this is from a year ago haha

It's great to get confirmation that the content isn't gone! I don't speak Japanese, so I rely very heavily on the fan-translated videos that get posted here 🙏

Hey! People have been talking about it on the technical issues forum.

Hey! So, I will share my thought on this topic... I think this crosses the mind of every fan of anything—Do we fans actually help? Or do we just make our idols’ lives harder? While it’s true that Yuzuru is, quite literally, the epitome of Japanese success, we can’t forget that his fame stems from being an athlete. He’s not a singer, he’s not an actor, he’s not an influencer. And athletes, eventually, retire (and as sad as it may be for many—and for Yuzuru as well—I think it will feel like a weight off their shoulders). And after retiring, they usually lose popularity and go on to live a much simpler life. We must also remember that they themselves chose to walk this path. They are well aware (specially anyone who sets a lofty goal, such as winning two Olympic gold medals) that they will sacrifice many things in life. Loving a sport, having a passion, and being able to make a living from it means you have to sacrifice many things. And while it’s true that it might hurt sometimes (as is human nature, it’s normal), I don’t think he has any regrets. I believe that a happy Yuzuru is a Yuzuru on the ice .
