I just don't think the significance of what he's saying here will be understood well. Think about it: Yuzu has just proven the most fundamental assumption in figure skating - namely that it's not possible to judge it objectively - to be flat-out wrong. If you can use motion-capture to see if a jump is according to the rules, then you can use it for spins, for steps, for anything. You can use it to automate tech scoring so that bias (in TES at least) can never be a thing in this sport ever again. That's earth-shaking stuff to think about. But I doubt most sportswriters will figure that out, western media or not western. And the main, non-sports media won't care. TBH it's not that hard or earth-shattering, other sports do SO MUCH more. But those from western feds + the media will just play dumb and pretend it can't exist, or that it hurts the "beauty" of figure skating which can't be measured using computers or something, as if calling underrotations or wrong edges fairly will make skating uglier. Of course, the people who have "beautiful" skating that will be hurt the most from this all happen to be from one or two feds... The only change that will happen is if the US and Russia both have a leading lady and those two feds can try to out-politick each other and propose technologies that highlight each other's weakness. Otherwise things are all fine and dandy and there's no need to change.

you're right....i'll delete it

Wakaba really wants to make that Olympic team, but I'm afraid it's gonna be a mess at least land your other triples if you're gonna add in one (or two) 3As.

jelly

tbh the ISU needs to be abolished first before anything changes

it's in english?? i want to read it...

a summary of yuzu's thesis? the autotranslate makes him sound a lot more direct than he usually is [deleted] This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

1. oh vey. this is your athlete's representative, i guess. fitting. 2. where'd she talk about it? eta: oh, insta https://www.instagram.com/p/CN2tnyrrF4y/ v. dramatic and passive aggressive

This is gorgeous. I wish he could do it more. And it gives him a whole point more in TES but idk how much 1 point matters. ETA: More lucid dreams Yuzu being a good senpai: oh no T_T HwS is truly a tribute to Sendai [NEWS]

me, whenever i'm not on the ice: me, the moment i step on the ice: not in the mood, i think i'll just practice these 3turns today

This is how I felt when he had to skate to them during 4CC FS when he found a hole on the ice. Yuzu in his regal Seimei beauty next to the judges, talking to them like they matter....nah they didn't even deserve him telling them there was a hole in the ice. In fact they deserve nothing *chucks pooh*

Flashback to 2018, but I absolutely LOVE this mature Yuzu rendition of Sing Sing Sing. I cut this standalone video from the CWW stream cuz I can't get enough of it lol. He is both so adorable and so charismatic and so extra. He's so good at these jazz or rock pieces, he pulls it off with SO MUCH confidence and face. This guy is special. I guess we already knew that

I had to fix the missing search bar and couldn't figure out how to, so I actually deleted the old theme and created a new one. If your theme was the old one it should automatically become the new one but I'm not 100% sure. You can go to the Themes dropdown at the bottom and reselect it if not though

oh yes, i also see it's missing... eta: it should be fixed?

try picking the default "Heaven and Earth" banner here: but actually there's an issue with the notification bubble so we are fixing it, sorry!

He is truly someone who skates with the entire world on his shoulders. Not just Japan and not just the skating world, but the whole world. He carries expectations from athletes from other sports, ordinary people affected by natural disasters and pandemics. The expectation is not only to skate well, but to act like a guiding light and skate with beauty. I wonder if his decision to skate here and at SOI is similar to the one he made when he skated after 3/11 even though he felt like he shouldn't. Because he realized his skating was more than just his own, it was a light, a guiding north star to so many people. On the flip side, imagine the pressure that brings... it's truly something so few people can understand. Maybe he is the only one. And yet, he's shouldered it all with unimaginable maturity and grace. Of course, hack writers and pay-per-click journalists will never bother to understand. TL;DR: Yuzuru transcends my beliefs every day.

Aww this is making me cry. He is both such a beacon of hope but also a mature, introspective, empathetic soul. It's like he's lived 1000 years in his short 26.

I can't wait to see it! [NEWS]

i thought this one was funny... :D

here here [NEWS]

LOL if I didn't know I'd be like what in the world is he doing? Oh if you have more can you link them, I can't keep track of everything that he's in hahaha

LOL I will gladly add it. Thank you Tho are there enough of these vids to warrant a section, or should I just put it under 2021 Worlds?

Same! I like the black lines and the more structured design... The swanyu one is a bit too soft/"flashy" for me! I would wear the origin one if it is the right size (not sure how big it would look on me )

[NEWS] Haha he looks kuyashii in the pic

schedule for SOI Hachinohe...welp [NEWS]
