oh God...well...it was actually in the 2014-2015 season. i was casually flipping through channels on my tv, and i watch figure skating casually. But then i saw yuzuru's chopin, and i wasnt too excited or anything about it. But when javi skated black betty my sister couldn't stop fangirling over him. But i thought i liked yuzuru's short more. So the next day on the day of the free skate, I wanted yuzuru to win. And when he skated to phantom, it was like magic. I was just instantly captured. it was too beautiful. :embSwan: Plus phantom is my favourite musical of all time. So even though he didn't win, i went online and search for more videos of him and searched him on wikipedia. And then I watched the gpf version of phantom and fell in love. Of course, i also read about what happened at coc and got so sad. Then i watched his romeo&juliet 1.0, the worlds 2014 ex version and i couldn't stop :crybaby: I kept replaying and replaying. So then i got super hyped about the next season and became a major fan.
(my whole family knows of my obsession, and they constantly make fun of it. whenever we talk about possibly going to japan for vacation someday to a relative or friend, they always say, "but of course, its ultimately because she loves this figure skater from japan, yuzuru or something, thats why she wants to go there."
