  1. I have seen a very good Yuzuru MAD video with this music, but I cannot find it on YouTube now I translated the lyrics as I was so moved at that time feeling it was like implying the relationship of Yuzuru and Nanami sensei. "Caught in shower lit with soft light Winter Daphne, bringing back memories of you Buds with flowing tears Start delivering a scent one by one It will come across the sky It will come over to you someday Spring, I’m still waiting it to come all the way. When I close my eyes, I’ll feel you near, who gave me love, your voice with old memories My heart has been left at you Still longing for reply Even so many years later, Waiting for ever, and ever Beyond the tomorrow It will reach there someday for sure Spring, I’m longing for it yet to see. When I stop walking, being lost, Gentle gaze of you who gave me dreams will embrace my shoulders Dreams, shallow dreams, here still I am Thinking about you, I’m just walking alone Like flowing rain, like flowing flowers Spring, I’m still waiting it to come all the way. When I close my eyes, I’ll feel you near who gave me love, your voice with old memories Spring, I’m longing for it yet to see. When I stop walking, being lost, Gentle gaze of you who gave me dreams will embrace my shoulders" Again, I'm sure I can never be a poet EDIT: The original lyrics are written in slightly classic Japanese, so it has a sort of gentle and grace nuance.
  2. Actually, 譲 (also read as jo, joh, or joe) is the kanji usually used for the name Yuzuru, although the hiragana for it is ゆずる not ゆづる。 譲る (yuzuru) as the verb means concede (or, implying modesty, humble, etc.), so it is written as ゆずる, following the basic sound. There are also 謙, 禅. or some more of the same kind. While, 結弦 is consisting of 結 - ゆ yu (connect) and 弦 - つる tsuru (string) , so that its hiragana is ゆづる. 弓弦 (bow and string) is also written as ゆづる. 弓弦 is the combination of kanji for yuzuru known from before, but 結弦 is very unique, so people found it difficult to read it before. Actually, it was a question in a quiz show around 2012, and the guest on the panel could not read. But, I'm sure everyone knows how to read it now
  3. Welcome to the infamous bizarre world of Japanese Just joking Japanese may be unique but it's spoken by humans not aliens, although its uniqueness is actually a barrier for Japanese as well to master other languages. Yuzuru is a good Japanese speaker, very logical and persuasive, but still he is struggling with English. I received a standard English education at school in Japan for 8 years and stayed with a host family in London for a year. After started working, I took a training course for interpretation twice a week for almost a year. I'm still struggling with the difficulty in handling a foreign language. I also took French course for 2 years, but now I only remember several words. It's true, if you don't use it, you forget it easily. Many multilingual people in this thread. I really admire them. Chinese and Japanese use Chinese characters. But mind you there are differences in many ways just like a trap. For example, 手紙 in Japanese means a letter, but I heard it means toilet paper in Chinese. 愛人 in Chinese means a lover, but a mistress in Japanese. As I said, because we use same characters, we have to be very careful. Anyway, Japanese learners say the pronunciation is not so difficult compared to English or Chinese. So, everyone, no fear
  4. I noticed there was an enthusiastic Yuzu fan(s) in Vietnam long time ago when I saw the video of "Spirits of Athletes - 2012 version" with Vietnamese sub. Was it you, VyVy99 ?
  5. Famous Japanese in Vietnam: 1. Fujiko-F-Fujio (Creator of "Doraemon") 2. ABE Shinzo (Japanese PM) 3. Oshin (Heroine of a Japanese drama) 4. MIURA Toshiya (Former manager of the Vietnam national football team 2014-2016) 5. AOYAMA Gosho (Creator of "Detective Conan") 6. HANYU Yuzuru 7. NAKATA Hidetoshi (Football player) 8. KAGAWA Shinji (Football player) 9. MURAKAMI Haruki (Writer) 10. FUKUZAWA Yukichi (Thinker, educator, founder of Keio University) They seem to love football and Manga, no doubt. I was surprised by the name of FUKUZAWA Yukichi. Why is he so famous?
  6. SuzyQ replied to OmNom's topic in Yuzuru Hanyu
    These soft tunes can be mixed One thing I have just thought of is to use the image of 蘭陵王 - Prince of Lan Ling for Yuzuru (I don't know Chinese pronunciation, but Ranryo-Oh in Japanese). I'm interested in the legend of Ranryo-Oh - Since he was so beautiful that soldiers admired him too much and their morale did not rise, he was always wearing a ferocious mask at the war. https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/蘭陵王_(雅楽) He must be able to portray the image of Prince of Lan Ling perfectly, without a mask though

    Chinese drama or movie music is really literally dramatic. I love this.
  8. Yeees, H&L And, he jumped 3 Loop ! Yey
  9. Thank you YzRIKO for the news from Nagano https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=YzRIKO
  10. This thread is what I have needed GOAT had haunted me long before I found it in the Urban Dictionary
  11. YzRIKO, you are our angel Yuzuru in Kanazawa. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyU4EW0RmJ7JA-aX-kfuuNA Uncut version of Wings of Words. TV Asahi is now regarded highly among fans Thank you for the uploader!
  12. Congrats Yuzu W 羽生 (Habu & Hanyu) receive the award We will see him in Kanazawa on Sunday Sorry, if already posted.
  13. The cover model (Kōki) is the second daughter of KIMURA Takuya and KUDO Shizuka, by the way
  14. I should have added the broadcast by BS Asahi for reminder. http://www.fantasy-on-ice.com/topics.html http://www.bs-asahi.co.jp/event/fantasy-on-ice-2018/ Makuhari: May 28 (Mon) 21:00 - 22:54 Kobe: June 17 (Sun) 25:00 - 28:30 (this means from midnight of the day) How can I arrange my schedule to see this live EDIT: Niigata FaOI should be done by Fuji TV. I have not checked this yet.
  15. Has the news that FaOI Kanazawa will be broadcasted on June 3 (the same day of the show) by TV Asahi Channel 2 been posted? https://sports.skyperfectv.co.jp/figure/fantasy_on_ice2018/ All Makuhari shows, 1st day of Kanazawa, and Shizuoka will be in July.
  16. Maybe Olympic Channel has taken the word wrongly: 1:02 Not; 言い続けています iitsuzukete imasu - I'm telling myself but; 位置付けています ichizukete imasu - I'm positioning (considering) it (as what I wish I could do sometime later.)
  17. I have not seen this myself yet. Maybe tomorrow. Good night
  18. YEEEES!!!!! https://seimeiyuzu.tumblr.com/post/174237123574/yuzu-is-jumping-3a-hes-healthy
  19. God, his 3A is back https://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20180525-00000073-asahi-spo https://www.asahi.com/articles/photo/AS20180525005151.html?ref=yahoo
  20. He was in Team USA when he was junior. I heard Mao Asada's mother recommended him to join Japan Team. I assume his mother tongue is English. His Japanese still has English accent. Mirai Nagasu was in the same situation, but she chose USA Team. Now, Tomoki Hiwatashi (junior skater) is the case.
  21. Yes, as you say, taking too much is always the problem for your health whatever it is. And it also damages the taste of food after all, just like too much salt or sugar. The point is, it is difficult to notice the overuse of Ajinomoto unlike salt or sugar. Your grandma is correct. It should be a pinch of Ajinomoto People are talking about the danger of Ajinomoto here, and concluded, if you use it reasonably, it does no harm to your health. https://matome.naver.jp/odai/2139454119075195401 Monosodium glutamate/Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monosodium_glutamate Anyway, Ajinomoto is now a general food company, and the majority of Japanese including me do not particularly remember that seasoning product when we hear the company name already. And, for Japanese Yuzuru fans, it is a company helping Yuzuru in nutrition before anything
  22. Just finished watching "Onmyoji" on TV. Still every piece of music reminds me of Yuzuru's Olympic scenes Now I'm watching "Prince Ice World 2018 - Yokohama" (BS Japan) A happy day today Sorry for OT. Wishing this happiness will continue to the next week.
  23. Maybe we fans should remember what he said (meant). But I don't think we should talk about or discuss it further here. We will be able to see Yuzuru performing in a week, even if through TV News at first !
  24. Yuzuru:「どうせ公家顔だし」 Dose kuge-gawo dashi. - After all, I know I have a court noble face. - the reason why he decided to SEIMEI. Kuge-gao: Both good and bad meanings such as noble, pale, plain, flat, expression-less, and so on. Typical court noble face http://www.yoshitoku.co.jp/hina/
