*Magazine is in English. Keeping it here for archive purposes only* Source: Pirouette World Edition No. 3, pg 6-15 Yuzuru Hanyu: Through my eyes Yuzuru Hanyu is, undoubtedly, one of the most significant athletes of our time, having opened up entirely new dimensions in figure skating. For a whole generation, he dominated competitive skating; set new standards with his records; and captivated both audiences and judges with his unique combination of elegance and technical precision. To this day, he remains a role model for aspiring athletes who follow in his footsteps with relentless ambition. Many international journalists refer to him as a once-in-a-century talent - a sentiment with which I can only agree.

Captions: 1 At Ice Rink Sendai, with Coach Nanami Abe. This is the home rink where Olympic champion Shizuka Arakawa grew up. "When Arakawa-san was competing here, I was still in the little kids' group, so I didn’t really see her practice. I think my older sister had just moved up to the athlete course around that time?" 2 "Now at this rink, I'm being carefully coached by Nanami Abe-sensei, and Soji Tanaka-sensei is helping me with my Axel. There's also Marie Arai-sensei and Ai Musha-sensei, and everyone cheers me on, saying 'Do your best!' It's really encouraging." 3 During rehearsal for Dream on Ice. 4 At the All-Japan Junior training camp, in the track and field training room. A 13-year-old playing with a balance ball like a cat. 5 A few days later, during a special participation in a senior training camp, he succeeded in landing a triple Axel! "Right before I jumped, I fell really hard, scraped my left elbow, and it bled a lot. But while I was practicing, licking my elbow myself, I managed to land the Axel!" 6 At the All-Japan Junior training camp. Among the male skaters, there are many who are not shy about dancing. 7・9 Interview near the rink while eating ice cream. "I used to mix melon soda and cola from the drink bar a lot." In fact, he was doing the same thing that day. 8 At the All-Japan Junior Championships, before the free skate. 10 What is the origin of the name "Yuzuru"? "Like the taut string of a bow and arrow, so that I can live with my head held high... I think that's what it meant." 11 With elite junior skaters, including athlete Yuki Nishino. "I get along well with Kohei Yoshino from Nagoya too. He's funny."
