This is the thread that the user was referring to. She posted the same translation on Weibo. According to the original twitter user, the newspaper source it was based on is from 河北新报 (Kahoku Shimpo), a newspaper from Sendai, four years ago This is the original newspaper clipping, on the topic of practicing until 4am, and the standing up for the classmate.

On the Weibo post, they also said Boyang will no longer move to train under Brian Orser (for now) due to personal habits and training etc. ETA: (I think they gave a more precise translation.)

According to her Instagram story, Orihara-san, who designed Yuzu's Etude, R&J 1, and White Legend, seems to be at TCC (Hmm, can we hope for a new costume from certain someone?) By the way, if anyone is interested, this is her website: http://www.mu-costume.com/ath-gallery-men-mucostume.html

Despite the source, this interview is actually quite informative of Kikuchi-san and Yuzu's relationship and how it came to be. He also talked a little about his experience at Sochi and PC. My Japanese is not at a level where I can translate the actual article, but I hope someone more knowledgeable does eventually do it because it is worth a read, and there are snippets of stories on young Yuzu as well.

ETA:

Yeah, I remember Brian (or was it Tracy?) actually said that his 4S was more stable than his 4T in practice at the time.

The cuts are just . And the choreography doesn't seem to compliment the music. Her skating is too lovely for them to do such a disservice.

Truly angelic.

Also to note, the special ice show in Sendai is only open to the refugees in Naraha.

According to this user, it seems like Yuzu is going to be in 24H on the 25/26th. There seems to be an ice show in Sendai, perhaps a special one-night only show similar to before? (BTW, I saw some fans take Raya's picture with Yuzu as a sign media day is coming since that seems to be the trend last couple of years. I thought that was funny lol, but I hope it is true.) ETA: this picture is glorious

I saw on Twitter that FaOI Kanazawa day 2 is broadcasting now, on CS Asahi 2.

Something to look forward to while we wait for any news on media day. It is about the 24H show Yuzu had been on annually since 2014.

Never seen this before (it looks like an old footage though), but it's cool how he describes what he perceives to be the styles of the four skaters

It says here that Yuzu had overcome his small appetite since Sochi period, and is able to finish the mealsets they prepared for him now. Now he is able to consume 3000kcal per day, which helps with his recovery. Haha, good job Yuzu. He also says he now finds his costumes to be tighter around his hip area lol.

Sorry, I can't remember if it was posted? He signed it for her. The way she cut the picture is cute lol

Some good news to brighten the recent days with.

Repeated post

My brother broke out in rash on his back the first time he drank alcohol with our dad, but that didn't stop him from getting drunk that time lol. The rash was uncomfortable temporarily, and went away after a few days. He can still consume alcohol, but over a certain amount it becomes uncomfortable for him. Since then, he uses it as a reason to politely turn down social drinking, and never drink (or only drinks a few sips) after that experience. Not to compare Yuzu to him, but I can imagine Yuzu to be in similar situation in that his body does react to alcohol negatively, but he can still drink to certain extent, just not an excessive amount. And with that, he can also turn down any social drinking that he is not interested in without too much hassle too. And in Yuzu's case, since he is an athlete, he may just think that it is even more of a reason for him to not drink even if he can. (But in the end all this is just my speculation. I don't care if he drinks or not.)
