Does anyone have the link to the MAD shared a while back with clips from the olympics, set to the la la land audition song? And if we are casting our votes for out there exhibition music then I want him to skate to Rihanna’s love on the brain

I wasnt very happy about Leslie’s comments either but Yuzu won despite everything and that’s all that matters, their skater lost and they can have their whiney bitchy moment for all I care. I know it’s infuriating coming across this bullshit and we are justifiably very protective of Yuzu across online platforms, but we got everything we wanted from this olympics, and I don’t think we should descend to their levels, we shouldn’t body shame Leslie Jones, especially not on a forum that is named after Yuzu.

He pulled at Nathan’s jacket to get him into the frame lol, he’s cute!

Yuzu leads by about 4 points today as well. This time around I’m hoping and praying for him to be clean in the fs more than that olympic gold though!

I account for half of these views, been trying to watch it into existence!

In Nice she was rooting for that Joubert fellow, I recall her saying something to the effect that Joubert had the skate of his life and redeemed himself there after a horrible string of performances(? not quite sure, never followed his career), so he should’ve been awarded for it with the bronze. Though it seemed to have escaped her that Yuzu too had had a redemption skate that got a standing ovation and was technically superior to Joubert and totally deserved it more. I guess she was too emotionally invested in Joubert managing to leave his shite year behind and delivering at the world stage, and seemed to be implying that Yuzu was young, so had ample time ahead of him to prove himself and win laurels later.

That’s no good, instant noodles are all I can cook which doesn’t even count as cooking. I would have to pester my mum to cook something good for Yuzu but most traditional food here is too spicy anyway... I see @Xen has gone ahead and done exactly that with her own yummy food post, now I’m craving Chinese, it’s my fav cuisine(or whatever hybrid version of it they serve here, the real deal is probably even better)

@the50person @Eclair you guys have some mercy on this uni student living on campus and surviving on instant noodles, your explicit descriptions are making me very hungry! Seriously though everything sounds delicious, I wish I was Yuzu, so I could take full advantage of this diverse fandom and sample all the free food.

Ah I got excited for a bit that there was a fellow Delhiite on the planet. I can definitely relate to feeling like the only one interested in a winter sport in an entire freaking country(of over a billion people, like surely I can’t be the only one!). Which is why I’ve taken to spamming one of my best friends with Yuzu interview links and asking her to translate for me(she’s a Japanophile and knows the language) and trying to get her into the sport so I can have company, she’s promised to watch the olympics with me and cheer for Yuzu, so there’s that. She thinks he’s very pretty and thought H&L Helsinki was awe inspiring, so that’s my story of halfway converting another innocent. But yeah I wouldn’t want Yuzu in my city either, a recent medical survey said breathing Delhi air is equivalent to chainsmoking 50 cigs a day, his asthmatic ass wouldn’t survive here

Lol you live in New Delhi? All those descriptions are very specific! Though most of South Asia is crazy hot and polluted(and prejudiced) so my guess is probably wrong... this is off topic tho sorry!

Does Javi kinda look like Zhenya in this pic, or is it just me?

Thanks for the link, I had somehow missed that post. It's a nice list, has some really good suggestions.

Closer to POTO costume but maybe in some colour other than red for olympic season? Like how H&L was a variation of etude in terms of colour gradient. Since athletes have their superstitions and all. Though I'd love to see him in red again.

Ah thanks! And yes, it's one of those pieces of kinda-sorta-warhorse music(along with dance macabre) to which I wouldn't mind watching Yuzu skate. It's so much fun speculating and reading everyone else's speculations, even though the likelihood of any of our fav music getting picked is slim to none. Browsing through this thread was great nevertheless, I got to listen to a lot of new music.

Hi everyone, been lurking for a while here, finally got around to actually posting anything. I wanted to ask if anyone remembers The Man in the Iron Mask OST being suggested by any golden skate posters? I have seen it thrown around as possible fs music on here but don't remember about golden skate? Because I remember in that list of music some fan had allegedly sent to Yuzu to put circles on the pieces he liked, he had put a circle on Heart of a King, and double circles on The Palace and All for One. Asian dream song had also had double circles marked on it and he ended up using it. That had me thinking that he could get a really good edit out of those three pieces, they're cinematic and dramatic so would suit him too, despite also having the drawback of maybe setting up direct comparisons to Yagudin.
