Yuzuru Hanyu did the opposite and reinvented figure skating for himself. Instead of points and medals, for this figure skater, it's about expression, staging, and the question of how sport can become art. - by Nala Vierrath Anyone who has ever seen Yuzuru Hanyu on the ice quickly understands why even people who have little interest in figure skating talk about him. Of course, there are the medals: Olympic gold in Sochi in 2014 and PyeongChang in 2018, plus world championship titles and records. The Japanese skater was the first figure skater since 1952 to win Olympic gold twice in a row. But what made him special could never be measured solely in points. While other athletes skated routines, Hanyu often seemed to be telling stories. His movements rarely appeared purely technical; even difficult jump combinations had an effortless, almost natural quality. Those watching him often felt less like they were witnessing a competition and more like a performance where sport and expression merged seamlessly. This also explains why his departure surprised so many. In the summer of 2022, Hanyu ended his competitive career not because he could no longer keep up, but despite still being among the world's best. He ruled out a return to the Olympic Games. For many, this is where the difficult search for the right time to retire begins. Hanyu chose a different path: He stopped in order to begin something new. Since then, he has used the ice not as a competition surface, but as a stage. In his ICE STORY series, he combines music, light, projections, and personal themes into productions that defy easy categorization. Productions like Gift, RE_PRAY, and Echoes of Life exist somewhere between sport, concert, and theater, often carried by just one person: himself. It's unusual for a figure skater to carry an entire show alone. Where ensembles usually perform or various stars share the ice, Hanyu holds the attention of an entire audience for hours, without judges or medals. With REALIVE, Hanyu returned to earlier programs, but not as a repetition. The pieces feel altered and reimagined, as if he were looking back on his own story and, in doing so, retelling it in a slightly new way.

He talks at length about his special collaboration with Yuzu on "Ikue" on the 15th anniversary of the earthquake. Full interview (3) Yuzuru Hanyu (31), a Sendai native and two-time consecutive Olympic champion in men’s figure skating, performed an original program he created to “Ikue,” an NHK song created by the popular duo Yuzu to pass on the memories of the Great East Japan Earthquake. Fifteen years have passed since the disaster. After completing the recording of his performance, Hanyu spoke about the thoughts he put into the choreography, changes in his feelings, and more. Here is the full text of the third installment of the interview.

*Machine-translation. Inaccuracies exist* Source: Photobook pg 15-17 Q&A for Yuzuru Hanyu Interviewer: Satomi Ito Satomi Ito, who has created Hanyu-senshu’s costumes for many years, asks him questions about his thoughts on the costumes created for this photo book, as well as his feelings toward programs and costume design.

Info: https://otonaristore.com/shops/Couture_on_Ice [Book Details] Satomi Ito, the designer who has worked on Yuzuru Hanyu's costumes for many years, created a new costume for Hanyu specifically for this project. The costumes, or "haute couture on ice," and his appearance were photographed and recorded. The photography was handled by Toru Yaguchi, a photographer who, like Ito, has been photographing Hanyu for many years. All of the included works were newly shot, taken on an ice rink that was exclusively reserved for the shoot. Not only is skater Hanyu a unique individual, but every aspect of the costumes and photographs is one-of-a-kind. This special endeavor, which no one has ever achieved before, has come to fruition, and a truly unique collection of works is born here.

Sharing this cute anecdote. During a Shibuya live broadcast on Aug 1st to celebrate the release of Final Fantasy XIV on Nintendo Switch 2, lead item designer Yosuke Hayashi mentioned that, during the planning stages of one of the boss characters, Dancing Green, they had also considered giving it ice attributes inspired by figure skater Yuzuru Hanyu. But they changed it in consideration of the combat design, so the final version became Dancing Green with a Toad's soul that gives him frog-like traits & abilities, while his fighting style is built around dance and performance. By the way, he also wears bunny ears. Apparently its backstory (see below) feels a bit similar to Yuzu, so perhaps that was one of the reasons the team had originally considered using Yuzu as a concept. Regardless, I think Yuzu must be thrilled if he hears this since he's a FF fanboy.

(Add-on) 2026 Japanese drama - "Reborn" Episode 4: "Before the Sochi Olympics, I was asked to produce an ad with a figure skater. When I was unsure who to pick, this man suggested Yuzuru Hanyu." Episode 6: *Flashback from ep 2*

Certainly not trash. I think it was just a kuyashiii~ skate and not many want to rewatch it maybe, but so many of the men in Sochi fell and made mistakes so I really dislike the narrative that he was lucky to win that. For me, despite the mistakes, we could see that Yuzu was quick to regain composure, he didn't let that affect him and completed his skate the best he could. He's always a fighter in that sense.
