It’s called “Kiss and Cry” A bit triggery so I’ll put it here:

Ongoing in Weekly Shounen Magazine! ETA So happy its in a magazine for boys. Hopefully more will be inspired to take up the sport.

I’m sure someone will do a scan/translation - it’s a pretty easy read.

I’ve been dying for him skate to it but after the trauma of the Olympics I don’t think I can handle anything more intense than a lullaby.

Nope, he thinks his name is Tatsuki. 　Little does he know...

New FS manga about a teenage genius skater who's been in a coma for a year (for a triggery reason I won't mention) and wakes up with no memory of his life as a champion. Skating scenes absolutely 10000% Hanyu influenced and the music he skates to is... CARMINA BURANA! http://news.kodansha.co.jp/5854

Oh, it's a word and a perfectly cromulent one at that.

Figure Skaters is back in stock!

Good job, lad. Now go and teach Yuzu.

Let our 3A master skate! Ice dance? There's no 3A in ice dance! To cheer ourselves up, let's check in with Boyang for a minute.

He says he still needs to stabilise 4Lo, master 4Lz (but has to wait awhile before trying it again), and he might want to try quints. I think he’s the type to never be satisfied, no matter what he says.

Did he really say this? Prince!

They seem to still be available on the Japanese site!

Oh my goodness! How long were they available for sale before selling out? O_O 5 minutes?

He sounds as desperate not to let go of Mr Hanyu as we are. (Please, an Australian tour! I beg of you! )

I dare say I know how he’ll answer and it’s what makes him so captivating. As Brian said, he skates his soul.

I just checked into rehab.

I went to NHK Trophy last year. There are details in the 2019 Worlds thread. They have separate sales for foreigners but not for Nationals. I would highly recommend going to any competition outside Japan if it’s not too far for you. Japanese competitions are too hard for foreigners.

This person found these bags made of newspapers hanging on their locker when they got to work. What nice colleagues they have. ETA They said it seems like the work of a senpai who played Ballade no. 1 for them.

No flag for us woodland folk?

Biggest tragedy in the history of the world that Yuzu wasn’t there.

I wonder if there couldn’t be a separate Harry Potter thread now that it’s nearing 10 pages...

We'll get through this.

I try with Twitter for the sake of FS, I really do, but it's so noisy and I can feel my IQ spilling points by the second, so I have to rely on other brave souls to risk their brains to bring me the lolz. In other words: Brian links, please.
