Yuzu leaves a great impression on everyone.

Glorious firebird, the fierce passion of the opening of GIFT reflects the fire in Yuzu's soul for his skating and the desire to bring the best performance to his fans

Costume captions: 1. From “nottestellata 2025,” the “MANSAI Bolero” costume. Yuzuru Hanyu wore a costume inspired by kariginu and skillfully manipulated its long sleeves while performing hydroblading. “The gold-colored costume is difficult to achieve, but I’m glad it properly reads as gold and stands out well on stage. The outer layer of organza, which looks like water, is surprisingly light to the touch and has a beautiful sheen. Pleated georgette is layered over the pants. I aimed for a costume that has a sense of weight and presence, while still feeling light and floating.” 2. From Echoes of Life, the “Ubugoe ~ Meguri” costume. The feather-like organza is especially striking. Smocking is applied to the wrists and neckline. “The large fabric attached to the sleeves is a key feature, and it uses organza that I’ve often used in Hanyu’s costumes before. The sense of floating movement and the flow of fabric around the body turned out exactly as I envisioned. It can also look like emerging from a cocoon. I added vine-like decorations on the left leg.” 3. From “Echoes of Life,” the “Aqua's Journey” costume. The organza that shines like splashing water was heat-treated and shaped before being attached. The overall tone is blue, but only the tip of the right hand is green. “The silhouette is reminiscent of his competitive skating days. Since Hanyu is known for his sparkle, I added a lot of glitter. The other costumes in the show didn’t use much sparkle, so I think it worked well in contrast. It’s based on the image of water splashes, but looking at it now, it also resembles Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Night.’”

The boss of Phiten said so many nice things about Yuzu. Phiten has been a great sponsor for Yuzu over the years. I've already purchased many of their products for myself and my family. Their necklaces and bracelets are excellent quality.

What concept gave birth to that costume?

This article only scratches the surface. It's nice to see that the press was aware of the problem, but they've written far too little. Perhaps if they'd covered it more often and in more detail, we'd have more fair scores.

This historic achievement, the first of its kind in Japanese figure skating history, brought tears of joy to the eyes of men’s singles pioneer Minoru Sano, who said, “It was a dream come true.” Let’s relive this remarkable achievement by his successors through his passionate commentary! Profile: Born in 1955 in Yamanashi Prefecture. From 1972, he won the All Japan Figure Skating Championships in the men’s singles category five consecutive times and competed in the 1976 Innsbruck Winter Olympics. In the 1977 World Championships, he became the first Japanese skater to win a bronze medal. After retiring from competition, he worked as a professional skater and contributed to the production and staging of ice shows. He is currently the head coach at the Meiji Jingu Gaien Ice Skating Rink and is also highly regarded for his clear and easy-to-understand commentary.
