Out of all people, I have no reason to trust T*L especially news regarding Yuzu. Their mentioning of Yuzu is nothing more than click bait to my eyes. Sorry but if they cannot disclose the source of their news, it is nothing more than a speculation. Anybody can say anything about anything in that way.

When you put them together like this, the resemblance is uncanny...just saying *looks at fruit bowl and puts an apple back

Is Shoma keeping the costume and the face painting as well?

Yuzuru rice field art is in full bloom

It's really interesting to see his perspective on different things around fs. I've always had a soft spot for him for whatever the reason and now I think I've got more respect rather than squishy feeling Few uncles of fs need to stay competing in order to show us more than just quads.

I think @shanshani was not referring to Sting's original version but the version from Moulin Rouge (El Tango De Roxanne a.k.a ROXAAAAANE) that was sang by Jacek Koman whose voice is not exactly beautiful.

Shikigami chanz are so adorable! The one handing out the red one to Yuzu is holding Ghana ice bar and other one handing out the purple one to Yuzu is holding Le Monde ice bar They should get extra loyalty points for them!!

I've checked with Shazam...the first one is Larrons En Foire by Raphael Beau and the second one is My One and Only Love by Thom Hanreich (Pina OST). Yuzu can skate to this music when he's much much older and he doesn't have to do quads for these types of songs. Just beautiful skating and few spins...would be lovely

Rika's new fs

Yes it is. Oh well Yuzu doesn't like paprika so it is not entirely OT then This is Yonezu Kenshi version and sounds quite different to the kids dance version. I love Yonezu's voice and the world he creates with his music. A touch of sadness and feeling of nostalgia in his version is something I feel when I look back and think about the summer days in my childhood...

Happy Zu is what we want to see!! Also Matteo looks quite comfortable and natural there...would he want to stay a bit longer than 3 weeks?? I'm sure if he really wants, big bro Javi would help As for Olympics 2020, I'm sure if they really want Yuzu involved in either torch relay or the lighting or the opening ceremony, they'd have contacted him already. Also Kohei Uchimura is not retired yet and he still wants to participate OG 2020 as a competing athlete not as a retired torch runner/lighter so the possibility of him lighting the torch as a current/competing athlete is very slim. Midori Ito did light the torch at Nagano winter OG but she was already retired at that time. For Yuzu to be the 2020 torch lighter, I don't know but there could be too many people objecting based on various reasons (he's not a summer olympian, not retired, etc). Personally, Yuzu may not want to be in the limelight but if he sees it is meaningful enough for him to do, he'd do anything that's been asked. It's a bit OT but it's relating to Tokyo 2020 so not entirely OT (if Yuzu'd be in it...) this is a supporting song for Tokyo 2020

Yes but the ultimate dream program doesn't necessary limited to "competition" program. I was thinking more like his life work, the ultimate fs program so it could be anything really

I was half asleep and read this "Poor Brian has probably made a (hair) piece with the lost hair a long time ago... I agree. To recycle or not to recycle, when Yuzu puts his mind to it, the end result would be a mind blowing program so I'm not worried about his choice. And black or white, haters gonna hate for what it is or what is not. I won't worry about them either. I may get annoyed with their comments occasionally but haters won't be making history so they can cry or rant for all they want. I see commentators or living room/laptop critics the same way - they are a part of the background. They never gonna be in the limelight of fs scenes. What they say may give some people with the same mind some degree of satisfaction but so what. I can never be like haters - not just hanyu/fanyu haters but haters in general. I can't be bothered spending my time for something I don't like!! What's the point?? ******* So if I ask Yuzu one question, it could be like "What is your ultimate dream program and the layout?"

Pino posted longer version on YT

Yuzu in pink t-shirt with shaggy hair... It'll be great to see Yuzu skate to Yuming singing with Shinya's piano

Not sure if should go to team Japan or here but the main "girl" is from China so here it is!!

According to The Ice official web site, Mai cannot participate in the show due to health issue...

So I was going to book a day off for ACI to watch the live stream but then looking at the last year's schedule, men's sp was on Sat early morning (1am) and FS was on Sunday morning (1am) for me so I don't think I need to take a day off. ACI doesn't have gala and that means the competition finishes Sunday morning for me not Monday morning. However, depending on the outcome (programs, costumes, results, etc), I could be totally exhausted by the time the event is over...I may need a holiday to recover from it

We've done it! And Golden Pooh and unicorn gave me an inspiration for this. This is a mythical creature called 麒麟 (Qilin / Kirin) have a little look at wikipedia on the link. Visually the creature is a mixture of unicorn (it has a single horn) and dragon (it has scales). Yuzu has been linked to unicorn and Smaug so I think Qilin is the perfect blend of the two.

G'day mate! I'm a kind of cultural mix of Aussie/Japanese/British. As SparkleSalad said, when it comes to the events (ice shows) in Japan, us Aussies got the geological benefit in terms of the time zones. Wherever you're, ISU competitions are live streamed on ISU web site except when your country has a TV broadcasting scheduled for the event (AUS has BSB broadcasting some of the ISU events).

I've had a feeling that something must have happened when I saw the pages increased since last night! Wow so no media day and ACI is confirmed. I think FaOI this year was quite fruitful in terms of Yuzu with collaboration and jump rehab progress. I can wait for his program reveal at ACI even though it's winter over here right now and I have just recovered from a cold/flu that made me stay off work 2weeks solid with doctor's notes... I am in for re-cycling only because I feel if he recycled programs, he'd most likely have another season after this one. I don't think he'd re**** on tribute programs so if I can see Yuzu competing two more seasons, I'd happily take both Otonal & Origin for another season!

The forehead with a shape of V in the middle of the hairline is called 富士額 (fuji-bitai). It is considered as a positive attribute in women especially in the old era. Yuzu in this photo with the perfect skin and beautiful little lips can easily pass as a beautiful girl if you put him in a kimono...no wonder AI cannot tell his true gender

Oh can I suggest "I want to break free"??
