  1. I wonder how much tourism money Yuzuru has generated. And I don't just mean for Sendai, but for all around the world.

     

    Basically, anywhere he skates has a legion of fans following.

     

    I can imagine any country would be thrilled to have him compete.

    Oh wow, to be personally given your own Akita puppy by the PM of Japan himself, who will be delivering the puppy all the way from Japan. And the leader of your own country also being present for the occasion. 

     

    Figure skating is good for diplomacy 😊

    This is lovely. Love that little Victor :cheer:

     

    Here a nice fanart of one of the training mates Zhenya left behind:

     

     

     

    Zhenya posted videos of when Anna started skating again after her injury and encouraged her. It's a bit sad to think about it now, but they might meet again at a competition in the 2019-2020 season.

  4. I didn't expect this, both because of how close Eteri and Evgenia are/were  and because Eteri is the coach for female skaters with the greatest success right now.

    But thinking about it, I do understand it.

     

    There are so many powerhouses with Eteri that she shares the rink with every day. It must be extra frustrating to see girls doing quads around her now that she is injured and can only glide.

    And I think she enjoys interacting with foreign skaters. With Eteri, she is the oldest, while she wouldn't be with a coach like Orser. Instead of being big sis all the time, she would have more adult skaters who can be role models for skating when you are no longer in your teens.
