Yuzuru Hanyu

Rules

Forum Rules

 

0) This is a Yuzuru Hanyu fan forum. Please only join and post if you are a fan of Yuzuru Hanyu and his skating.

 

1)  Forum Etiquette

- Keep criticism constructive! Constructive criticism is always welcome on Planet Hanyu.

- Non-constructive criticism and abuse of either skaters or other members is not allowed. Keep your criticism specific (i.e. not X sucks or even X’s jumps suck but, for example, X’s air position is frequently off-axis, or X has a mule kick on her toe jumps).

- Acceptable criticism may become non-constructive if it becomes excessively repetitive. 

- No trolling, harassment, personal attacks, character assassination, discrimination, or excessive profanity.

- Don't post speculation, whether your own or someone else's, that malign anyone, including but not limited to skaters, their families, and members of this platform or others. Potentially harmful, unproven speculation may be moderated with discretion from staff members.

- Don't call out anyone from other platforms. Don't start witch hunts. Don't link to or engage with haters; this only gives them more attention. Use a screenshot or archive.is if necessary. 

- Don't feed the trolls.

- Don't discuss politics on this forum.

- No sexual content allowed. 

- NEW This is not the place to criticize Fanyus. Remember, Yuzuru has a lot of fans. This means lots of people who all express themselves differently, so generalizing fan behavior is not allowed. Calling out individual fans on other platforms is also not allowed unless the topic directly impacts Yuzuru. Only constructive and evidence-based discussion allowed.

 

2) Privacy

- Do not post personal information about other people, including but not limited to skaters, their families, and members of this platform or others. Personal information includes your own insider information and other information that is not public.

- Whatever information you post about yourself (i.e. addresses for collecting letters), expect it to be public forever. Nothing is encrypted, so for safety reasons, don't include sensitive information in posts, PMs, or anywhere else.

 

3)  Posting Guidelines

- Keep general chatting out of clearly labeled threads (translations, fan cam compilations, etc.).

- In general chat threads, conversations should at least tangentially related to the topic (i.e. in the General Yuzuru Chat, keep the topic related to Yuzuru).

- Adhere to these subforum guidelines when starting threads: 

Yuzuru Hanyu: Anything related to Yuzuru. Anything Yuzuru-related can be cross-posted from other forums, i.e. translations from the Translations subforum.

 

Translations and Media: Do a search before starting a new list or compilation in case someone else already did it! To help make things easier, try using these tags when posting in this subforum, if applicable:

 

Translation [Translation]

Lists and indices

[Index]
Compilation [Compilation]

 

International Talk: Threads for chatting in other languages. Feel free to start a new thread for a language that isn't represented.

 

Space Junk: Everything that doesn't go in any of the other subforums. Rules still apply, of course.

 

Event Discussion: Events include broadcasts, shows, and competitions. Threads for each event will be opened ahead of time by the staff. Depending on the popularity of a competition, we may have one thread for all disciplines or a separate thread per discipline. If you don't see an event thread, please request it.

 

Community Talk: All other event-related talk, like tickets, meetups, etc.

 

Igloo World: A place to post about other skaters. Please keep posts constructive, and contact a staff member if you would like to see a new thread here.

 

Knickknacks: General skating-related chat, including personal skating, threads about multiple skaters, threads about the state of the sport at all levels, etc.

 

CoP-ernicus: Skating-related references will be posted here, including reference videos and guidelines.

 

4) Crediting

- Give credit to images, articles, and other media you didn't create.

- If you want to post an article (including translations, news articles, blog posts, etc), try to post a quote and a link instead of the whole article unless you have explicit permission from the author.
- Please check with content creators regarding reposting their work. We will comply with any requests to take down posts by the rightful content creators.

- Fan-art and fan-taken photography must be credited. If you don't know the source, put "PM me if you know the source." Edit your post if you later discover the source.
- As a general but not inclusive rule, if there is a watermark, you should link to the source. Please do not remove watermarks.

 

5)  No solicitations or spamming

- Don't post for the sole purpose of promoting other websites, asking for money, or advertising.

- We don't allow people to advertise commercial links on this site.

- If a non-profit, website, or fundraiser is relevant to Planet Hanyu, it may be allowed, but please check with forum staff first. 

- Reselling things like tickets is allowed but we are not responsible for any transactions done on or off this site.

 

Use the report post button if you see anyone violating these rules. We will try to respond as soon as possible.

 

In the rare event that any rules are violated, we have a points warning system. Warning points expire after 1 month and vary depending on the offense. They vary from small (repeatedly not crediting fanart after being asked: 1 pt each) to serious (personal attacks: 20 pts).

 

After accumulating:

40 points - moderators must review all posts
50 points - suspension

until your points have expired and fallen below the thresholds.
 

After reaching a cumulative 100 points, the user may be banned. However, we reserve the right to immediately suspend or ban users who have no intention to follow the rules. 

 

When posting about COVID-19 keep the following rules and guidelines in mind: 

 

Thank you for cooperation and being part of our planet!

  1. Started by Yukok,

    Today l went to the Hanyu Yuzuru exhibition. It's not just about skating but about the earthquake in Japan in 2011. I think he gave us the chance to reconsider it. It consists of pictures of the disaster and some costumus he wore after it. The pictures are from when it's happened to now. Some places are getting as usuall, but some are still under hard situation. He visited the place and meet people who experienced it. After he got the gold medal in Olympic and visited the people it makes them so happy. I'm a Japanese and this exhibition reminds me of at that time and I appreciate it. This exhibition has the title which …

    Dear Yuzuru fans, To repeat what I thought could be some steps/strategies to put pressure on ISU about the issue of fair scoring: * First step must be to include in Olympic Commitee in every communication made on social media. * Secondly, unfair scoring is not only recent, there is a whole book about it: The Second Mark. Courage, Corruption, and the Battle for Olympic Gold. We can use lots of content from the book to justify that ISU judges have been biased and corrupted especially when it comes to Olympics and that we do not want the history to repeat. And yes, no mention of Yuzuru here, the focus should be demanding that unbaised judges sh…

  3. Hello dear Fanyus, I need your help! I've only recently joined this fandom and I actually just joined this forum I hope I'm doing things right I have no clue tbh. I'll cut it short. I'm a composer and I composed a piece for Yuzu to skate. I know that it's a near to impossible dream but I won't give up until I try everything I can. So my question to you is that how can my music reach him? I know that he has no social media. I couldn't find any contact information of his management team either. My best shot is to dm Brian, Tracy and Shae-Lynn but it's just such a hard thing to get noticed from instagram. Is there anything that I'm missing in here? Is there any other wa…

  5. Updated [21/04/21] sorry this will most definitely be the final update. We've recieved messages from over 40 countries and are overwhelmed with joy at the response! As there are only 3 days left, we'd like to make one final push so if you haven't sent a message in yet please do so as soon as possible!!! Hello everyone! After watching Yuzuru skate at worlds, I wanted to do something to show the love and support of Fanyus, through both the highs and lows of his career. For this reason, I started this banner project which I will send to the JSF once completed. Let's cheer Yuzuru on into the next season and the Beijing Olympics! …

  6. Hello everyone! I'm not a new Fanyu, but I am new to the Planet, so it's nice to meet you all! I'm honestly so proud of Yuzu after his Short Program and Free Skate, I'm super excited for his Gala skate on Sunday, I just hope proper safety precautions are in place and that Yuzu and everyone else stays safe. I was wondering how other Fanyus cheer for Yuzu whenever he's participating in a skating event (competition or ice show). Anytime there's a skating event that Yuzu's part of, I always get together my lucky cats and all my Pooh things to cheer for him and wish him good luck with his skates. I also bake and decorate cookies in support of him. These…

  7. Dear Yuzuru fans, I am a 50 year old mom who likes figure skating and is a Yuzuru fan. I am very new to this planet (3 weeks now) but I am already fascinated of this young man's talents and amazing journey in life. As you know, after every Yuzuru performance the rink is covered with Poohs and they are donated to children in the city/country where the competition is held. However, this year it will not be possible to do so and being a mother myself, I think this is a big shame. As you know, this year's Worlds will be held in Stockholm very soon (22-28 March) and I thought that we can change this sad fact into good news for children: my suggestion is to st…

  8. Dear satellites and friends March 11th is approaching and it will mark the 10th Anniversary of the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. Joining the commemorations, we have prepared a special stream on Saturday 13, 16:00 CEST. Please join us as usual via Twitch or planethanyu.com/tv The hashtag we'll be using is #PlanetHanyuCommemorates110311 We would also like to encourage you to donate to charities or projects focused on people in the affected areas and reconstruction’s efforts. The amount doesn't matter and there is indeed some possibilities to help without spending money. Here a few suggestions: The Great East Jap…

  9. Excause me... Is there anybody who has bought Yuzuru Hanyu Season Photobook 2019 - 2020?🤗 Because I want to buy it and I also want to buy Yuzuru Hanyu Season Photobook 2018~2019. But I can't afford to buy both,so which one should I get? Yuzuru Hanyu Season Photobook 2019~2020 or Yuzuru Hanyu Season Photobook 2018~2019.🤗

  10. Post and discuss old and new videos Old but gold:

  11. Hello dear satellites! During our recent #YuzuSkatingParty an interesting idea came up: Since Pooh rain is impossible in these days, we thought of using a twitter hashtag where we could thank Yuzuru for his performance instead of the usual Pooh rain. Perhaps we could add images of Pooh bears etc. Maybe we'll already get a chance to use it next weekend during Japanese Nationals! Some hashtags that were suggested were: #YuzuPoohRain #PoohRain4Yuzu #PoohRainForYuzu and some JNats specific hashtag: #YuzuJNats2020 #YuzuruJNats2020 #YuzuruNationals2020 Please discuss here, what is t…

  14. Hello from YuzuSkatingParty team! For our next streaming parties, we are planning on showing some Yuzu documentaries and interviews. We already have a long list of videos that are subbed, but there are also some that have a translation and a video without subtitles. We are currently in the process of organizing the playlists for the following streaming parties, and we'd like to start subbing some of those videos, that would then be premiered during our Twitch streams. Here's a list of the unsubbed material we've accumulated so far: We already got the permission for the first video, the interview by Shuzo Matsu…

    So, I'll be in Tokyo/Kyoto in late March, and I wanted to know if there were any places that stock anything Yuzu? I've heard of the gum and the various magazines, but if there's anything more (or if you know of specific places that are sure to have the magazines), definitely let me know! ありがとございます!

  16. The idea of a page for Yuzu on Wikiquote is taking concrete shape now, so I created this discussion thread here on the Planet to share quotes and exchange opinions. Here is the latest update on the page: Yuzuru Hanyu on Wikiquote The two main purposes of this project: - Bring some structure into the wild potpourri of famous Yuzu quotes, so that fans can find them easily with the exact source and proper translations. - Introduce Yuzu to the world, not only as a successful athlete but also as an eloquent speaker with impactful and iconic words. What needs to be discussed: 1. structure and sorting of the quotes (chronolog…

    Great Romeo or the greatest Romeo? There are wrong answers. A place to wax lyrical and soliloquize about tiny Romeo #1. Ok, GO!

  20. Tour de Tohoku (TDT) is a scenic cycling event that takes place along the coast of Miyagi prefecture - areas severely damaged by the 2011 Earthquake and Tsunami. The event raises funds to support the Tohoku recovery efforts, and also serves to introduce the Tohoku region to outsiders. In 2019, the TDT collaborated with the creators of "Yowamushi Pedal", a popular sports anime about competitive cyclists. The artists prepared a beautiful gallery of illustrations for the event, featuring Yuzuru Hanyu among the 16 well-known Pedal characters. Huge panels of the illustrations were shown around Japan (I saw them in Shinjuku Station, Tokyo) to publicize the even…
