We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone for their cooperation. The donation drive began on July 31 following an announcement in the Yomiuri Shimbun. Separately from these donations, the Association will provide ¥10 million in support funds from its Large-Scale Disaster Support Fund, which has been accumulating a portion of the proceeds from the Yuzuru Hanyu Exhibition 2022. Combined with the relief donations, the total amount donated will come to ¥93,252,300, all of which will be entrusted to Kumamoto Prefecture. The Association will also undertake support projects for people affected by the Kumamoto Earthquake. Donations received hereafter for the Kumamoto Earthquake will be used for these projects. NoteIn December 2022, Yomiuri Shimbun Tokyo Headquarters donated ¥85,935,835, representing a portion of the proceeds from merchandise sold at “Yuzuru Hanyu Exhibition 2022”. The donation was made for use in support activities for disaster victims. [Source | Archive] The Association says that Yuzuru's side requested that the money be used to support areas affected by large-scale natural disasters. In response, the Association established the Large-Scale Disaster Support Fund and has been setting aside the money so it can be used when major disasters occur—to provide funds to affected municipalities, assist organizations working on the ground, and provide initial funding for registered disaster-volunteer organizations. The Association's current description says the fund isn't simply a pot of money earmarked for direct payments to disaster victims. It can support affected municipalities and organizations providing assistance on the ground, and can also provide initial funding to registered disaster-volunteer groups. [Source | Archive]

2026/09/17 Weekly Famitsu No. 1964, “Persona” 30th anniversary feature Yuzuru sent a congratulatory message More information: https://www.famitsu.com/article/202609/87969

Totally random comment from me, but I just love Parisienne Walkways. It's been 14 years since Yuzuru debuted this program, but it hasn't aged at all. Such a masterpiece. Well, not that his other programs are any different in this regard.

Yuzuru Hanyu, a figure skater of extraordinary talent, has achieved numerous remarkable feats, including winning two consecutive Olympic gold medals and becoming the youngest person ever to receive the People's Honor Award. Even after turning professional in 2022, his various endeavors continue to attract attention. His solo shows at the Tokyo Dome and arenas across Japan are unprecedented in the world of figure-skating entertainment. Following the solo ice-story series “GIFT,” “RE_PRAY,” and “Echoes of Life,” the next installment has also been announced for “this winter.” As fans’ anticipation builds toward winter, a new announcement was made on September 11, 2026. It was an encore performance of Yuzuru Hanyu “REALIVE” an ICE STORY project, which had been held for just two performances in April 2026. It will also include Prequel: Before the WHITE, positioned as a “prequel” to the upcoming installment. The venue will be SAGA Arena, with performances scheduled for Saturday, November 28, and Sunday, November 29, 2026. Alongside the surprise of an additional performance, the location has also drawn considerable interest. SAGA Arena in Saga City, Saga Prefecture, is particularly memorable to fans because it hosted “RE_PRAY” in January 2024. At the time, the prefecture and city worked together to launch the large-scale “#RE_PRAY_SAGA_HOTOMEKI Project,” in which the entire community came together to welcome visitors attending the shows. In 2024, Toyo Keizai interviewed local people involved in the initiatives surrounding the Saga performances of “RE_PRAY.” We are republishing that article here. (At the end of the article, we have also added details from interviews conducted following the announcement of the encore performances on September 11, 2026.) The original article was published online on December 1, 2024, as part of a feature in the November 30, 2024 issue of Weekly Toyo Keizai, released November 25. 2024 article republished 2026: About "REALIVE"

Congratulations, Olympic Seimei! 🥳

Let's live in the woods and be happy together for always
