Kenshi Yonezu seems to be a figure skating fan for a long time, or at least he watches them. This was his tweet from 2014, he said he was impressed by Elena Radionova's Dance Zombie. By the way, Yonezu's costume for his 'POP SONG' music video was designed by Tsuyoshi Takahashi, who is also the designer for Yuzu's NOVA costume. Saqulai (also Echoes designer) congratulated him in the comments too. The CG/composite of that music video was done by Yoshihumi Sadahara of the company <MARK>, who also worked on Echoes. These people are all connected to each other.
