There are many, but right now i'm watching some Fumie Suguri performances and i like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOTgdkCbcW0

At this point, i just want him to do his job as good as he can no matter with what program

People are blinded by quads. They are like "oh 4 quads, 5 quads, well, there is nothing else, just quads". And don't care anymore, don't even look closely at the performance. That's what bothers me

Well, what does "upgrade the layout" mean? More quads? More different quads? Crazy combos? Figure skating is not just jumps and i don't want people to blame him that he is "just jumps" (and they will). The youngsters can do 10 quads if they want, but Yuzuru is more than that, he has other qualities as well

But maybe there is no need for it. I would like to see some new spins

But will the "quadstars" land their quads? Why does everyone expect them to land the jumps consistently? There was so much hype about Boyang, and Chen and Uno, they were already crowned world champions and blah blah, right at the beginning of the last two seasons . Well, not much happened since then

Marin is the first japanese JWC since Mao, right? OFC she is being pushed, the same as Mao was, i don't get why people are complaining about Marin all the time

I don't think Yuzuru should have 5 quads in his program. He should focus on other elements and on consistency. Many quads doesn't make you automatically win, we saw it with Boyang, with Nathan, Uno even Chan had 3 quads. None of them has broken Yuzuru's 3 quads WR yet, even with inflated scores, for a reason As long as Yuzuru has a good skate at the olympics, it doesn't really matter if he doesn't win. He is the only current skater, who is a olympic champion, 2 time WC, 4X GPF champ, 4x national champ (so far) and who has broken 11 WR. All these things speaks for itself. Whoever is going to win the olympics, won't achieve as much as Yuzuru did. Olympic champs come and go. Many of them r**** and are forgotten, but not Yuzuru

And there is this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFerK1RQidk

I'm not expecting him to win the olympics- for many reasons. But i hope he can surprise us I'm more worried about who will win the olympics (if not Yuzuru) Last night, i watched this again, and he looks so confident https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLrp-w_a5To

I'm really annoyed by all these "mozart here, mozart there..." since my childhood, just because he was a "wonder child" . I can't hear it anymore, I think there are so many composers out there, who are better than him, but are ignored because they weren't "wonder children" Back to zuzu

Sorry, but Mozart is overrated People think he is a "genius" bc he was once a "wonder child", but in reality, he is nothing special Yuzuru is like a mix of Beethoven's and Dvorak's music- powerful, godlike, deep and pretty at the same time

As long as he still skates better than the others, it doesn't matter if he wins or not. People know who the real champion is, they remember performances, not medals And the fact that he is forced to be better than others, it makes him a better skater and champion

I'm not sure it's a good idea... i mean, it's the olympic season, too much risk

Everyone who watched him at coc 2014 should know that he would survive anything He is the ultimate manga warrior, one of those who are broken, showered in blood and half dead but still continue the fight Yuzuru has that "beast mode", like Mari in Evangelion ( i love that scene )

Radionova, Tukt, Baiul, Lipinski, Gold, Witt and Osmond doesn't get any love?

Any news about Sota?

Well, body language speaks for itself. And i know a few things about body language. Everything else doesn't matter. But anyway

Sorry, but the one has nothing to do with the other. There are many types of relationships and things are not just black and white

I'm still a little bit lost here, haha, but the forum banner is great- just a little thing: he is a two time world champion, it should be mentioned
