@chiachium he is for sure back in Toronto now, two young girls have posted pictures with him at TCC on Monday and Tuesday.

what?! Is there a story here that I've never heard?!

‘Being less aggressive than his haters in Japan doesn’t make people who criticize him here better’ Do you, in all honesty, think that people not liking the WoW costume is the equivalent to the vile things some Japanese haters have said? If so then, yeah I’m glad you give up.

I fail to see the difference. ‘Only praise and support all his actions’ and ‘dont say things that aren’t good’ get you the same end result.

So do you think fans should universally praise and support every single action he makes ever?

mhm, I saw on twitter some posts from another skater who was at that comp. He said the boy prefer's Nathan, and that the music was not Seimei but 'some kind of ninja song." I'll dm you the thread.

Me too, I'm getting really sad and worried. I spent a lot of money and emotional energy on my CiONTU merch, I hope it makes it too us. I'll never use cdjapan again.

New Yuzu pics thanks the the Faoi twitter!

On the contrary, they seem to be friends now so maybe he’s saying that because he has more personal insight on what yuzu’s plans are? I mean, I doubt he’s drawing his conclusion/prediction from the same information and interviews that we all see, he knows him and probably has more info. Idk, just a thought that came to me this morning.

Thank you for sharing this, I'm so disappointed in them though. Had I known they were moving warehouses, I would have used another proxy. I want my Continues with Wings merch!!!

thanks @Hydroblade I feel better now!

Anyone else order CiONTU merch internationally? It seems merch has been delivered in Japan, and some who used jp homemaker have received notification that their's has shipped. I used cdjapan and no news so far, but I'm hoping it will also be shipped soon!

Preface- please someone more knowledgeable correct me and explain more indepth. No, it's not about nature at all! It's about him and his career. Unlike Seimei where he's playing a role, in H&L he's skating as himself. It's a very introspective, reflective program. He created it coming off of that devastating Boston worlds where he thought he wouldn't be able to compete again. The music is part of the theme from the 1998 Nagano Paralympics, the year/olympics he first started skating. Please, can someone better explain what I'm trying to say. I'll look for an article. Edit: From the H&L thread below- this is a subbed brief explanation of H&L. I know I've seen other sources talking about how it's more personal, etc.

I have Thursday/Friday tickets! Hoping to be able to get Saturday when they’re released on the 19th.

In the season before Yuzu moved to TCC, he won a GP, got 4th in his first GPF as a 16 yr old (maybe just turned 17, can't find the date of '11 GPF), bronze at his first sr national championship and bronze at the 2012 World Championships. He was still very young and had a lot of growing to do but I think he had already entered the ranks of the elite so to speak.
