I understanding why Rika is not on the list but does that mean she won’t get any extra funding?

YES! Something to look forward to!

Always feel down whenever I read retirement announcement, especially for skaters I like

Oh dear. Saw a video and it shows part of Sendai. Hope everyone is safe and the earthquake will be over soon with little aftershocks.

I'm loving the fact they continue to keep in communication after comp is over. Awww so nice of Yuzu to share the photo and Xinyu to help posting it

If anyone want new book for the extra line... This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

I saw this tweet and got confused. Bulletin post is dated 2021 March, last year?

He did confirm on twitter that he's not retiring and will continue with ice dance. It's unfortunate that they split in such circumstance but hope they both found a new partner soon. ETA: Not sure but I read it seems like financial circumstance that doesn't allow him to stay on in Canada for training, hence the split.

Keeping the fire in his heart burning is not easy if judges keep dousing water on him. But I think he is starting not to care about scoring so he may find motivation somewhere.

Yuzu's mom... Always the helpful Yuzu This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

We saw some translations of Ghislain's interview and here's another translation compiled in one pic. Not much difference from the other translation though I'm confused about the "That was by far the best 4A jump that anyone had ever jumped in the competition" quote. So Ghislaine is talking about the jump in 'competition'? Best 4A jump that anyone had ever jumped in competition is comparing Yuzu with Yuzu? But is the jump in practice better? The other translation is based on the yahoo article which has the same Japanese quote but has an extra quote "北京で跳んだジャンプはそれよりもさらに良かった" which lae translated as the Beijing jump was better than those shown on videos. Yuzu did say the one in Beijing is the best jump so.... What I'm trying to say is I want the 4A videos Yuzu sent to Ghislaine, please.

This needs to be posted here too because this is fact. Not salt. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

Whoa good luck to you! I do think they will start selling tickets before Yuzu confirmed his attendance so it's sort of a gamble... but yes, waiting till May is kind of a bit late to get a ticket. I last got a FaOi ticket from a fellow satellite here who used a Japan proxy to help buy so that's a way if they do not accept foreign credit card but I don't know what's the ticket purchase process now and if they are restricting proxy purchase. More ticketing information should be released later and hopefully it won't be too hard for you. I continue to plead for Yuzu, that if he wants to organise his own ice show, to please allow some tickets for international fans.

Problem is probably not about buying tickets from overseas but to travel to Japan. Japan still does not allow foreigners to enter for touristic purpose unless you travel for business or study. How do I ask my boss to set up a company in Japan? Hopefully Yuzu's ankle heal in time so that he can participate in FaOI. That will be something to look forward to.

water is coming this March 14! Last episode for our beauty blogger though. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

Ratified or Certified, this is the first time the letters '4A' is printed on protocol. That's historical achievement for me. I'm also hoping that he will land a ratified 4A one day though he seems to sound as if he may give up based on his post comp interviews but I think that was him feeling really down. The fire may burn again after he heals his ankle

And we have another write up on the jumping state in skating world now? Need more media and journalist to talk about it cos they ain't gonna listen to fans' views. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

This suddenly appeared on my TL. I did not expect Sharp to advertise their copier machines in convenience stores (7-11, Family Mart, Lawson) this way but one can print photos of Yuzu in A3 size with their print services. The link shows the photos available to print in Japan. https://www.e-printservice.net/content_detail/yukanfuji_print This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

Well it is expected but now the real drought finally starts. Was talking to my friend earlier on and we agree there are too much negative news these 2 years. Yuzu, please rest well and may your ankle recover soon so that you can heal us with your skating! Also, good luck to Kao!

Finally an announcement...ISU is always step slower....

Yuzu: I think I'm saying something quite impossible But you will do it right?

Result of relentless practice

I don't recall hearing the Chinese words in other videos of this scene but aww.. his 'wo ai ni (I love you)' melts my heart... original video from weibo https://weibo.com/tv/show/1034:4739092093796387?from=old_pc_videoshow

Oh you are referring to the strap, and not the clock face, being too big. Do you have any Citizen shop in your country? I just brought mind down and tell them I bought online and they adjust the strap length for me free of charge. If not, maybe you can ask if any watch shop can help with a fee.

I actually find the watch size quite right on my wrist and my wrist is consider thin. Out of all 3 yuzu-related watches from Citizen, this is my most worn one cos the others are too dainty for me. Not that I wear the Origin watch that often too cos I can't bear to scratch it. Congrats to getting your watch delivered safe and sound!
