Photo: Kiyoshi Sakamoto Text: S-Style Editorial Department After turning professional, Yuzuru Hanyu has been able to perform solo figure skating performances in an unprecedented form called ‘ICE STORY’. Following the first series “GIFT”, the work “RE_PRAY” is based on the theme of games that he loves. The world of games that can be played over and over again, and a life that we can only live once. It is a work that expresses both worlds while also filled with prayers for the people living today. Held in Saitama, Saga and Yokohama, Miyagi was suddenly decided as an additional performance. Many fans came from all over Japan and around the world to see Mr. Hanyu’s event in his hometown. After skating 9 programs, before the encore, he addressed the fans in the venue and said, “I’m sure there are some people who can only come today, I want them to see me do my best with all my heart and soul, so I gave it my all”. He joked, “I’m suffering from hay fever. Why don’t you change your nose with me (laughs)?”, stirring up excitement in the audience, before adding, “If you have a flag, please wave it. I also want to cherish the banners that you all showed me. Thank you so much for all the handmade goods that you all made,” he said, expressing gratitude for the fans who have supported him over the years. After the performance, which lasted about two and a half hours including the encore, he spoke to the media about his work and feelings for the local area.
