"Sugawara-san was crying next to him..." On November 4th, the ice show "Prologue" opened, marking a new start for Yuzuru Hanyu. Ten years ago, in 2012, the then 17-year-old Hanyu made his name known to the world at the World Championships in Nice, France. Former Asahi Shimbun photographer Hiroki Endo, who witnessed the "legendary" performance on site, looks back on that time.

I see in Yuzuru Hanyu a profound dedication to the "Way of Skating." He is never satisfied with the present and continues to strive for greater heights. This Olympic Games was surely a challenge, as he was not in peak condition due to injury, and he even appeared slightly thinner than before. Still, within his refined sense of aesthetics, I think he was striving to incorporate as many quadruple jumps as possible—his greatest hurdle to victory. I was not able to watch the free program in real time, but I watched the recording on the same day and thought that Hanyu had risen like a phoenix from a volcano. I quickly sent him a congratulatory message saying, "You won this deadly battle with all your strength."

Sorry for sharing this negative news, but I want to raise awareness that an AP reporter wrote about Yuzu being a big target for women's tabloid magazines. For anyone having doubts about him being targeted, we have actual black-and-white proof here.

While talking about the characters in the manga Medalist, Hanyu shared his surprising philosophy of "Unhappiness Points," which he practiced leading up to the PyeongChang Olympics. His words offer a glimpse into what allows them to remain at the top.
