Takeshi was a prominent jumper, but he hasn't achieved much as a jump coach, and he doesn't belong to Howa. (Howa Sports Land is in Nagoya and Takeshi belongs to Kansai Univ. in Osaka.) Tsuzuki sensei is based in Yokohama. Howa used to have Hiroshi Nagakubo, who was known for teaching jumps, but he has retired. However, some of their young skaters are trying to master multiple quads now. Sota Yamamoto is one of them. So Deniss will at least have good training mates.

I need a video of this Other photos of TJ Training Camp

In the original, he says "真知子先生から も 離れたほうがいいんじゃないかと言われた" which means "Machiko sensei also said that it might be better for me to leave them." He just said that the coach agreed with his decision. By the way, isn't this more relevant to Team Japan thread?

Found Pino san recommending trying Yakimeshi (miso-flavored grilled rice ball) at Jogi Shimizukan if you visit Jogisan in Sendai. You may have seen this shop in this news clip filmed in the summer of 2011, in which the shop keeper cheered Yuzu, saying, "You don't have to cheer for Tohoku. Do your best for yourself, that will make everyone happy in the end." Shimizukan is near the main gate of the Saihoji Temple (or Jogi Nyorai.) Jogi Tofuten mentioned above is also in this area.

You may find (a statue of) him around Marunouchi Building near Tokyo station. Japan is going to host the Rugby World Cup this year. These "bench arts" are a part of a project to promote the event. I am not sure how long they will exhibit them so I don't recommend you to go there just for these arts, but if you are planning to take a walk, have dinner or go shopping around Tokyo station this summer, it may be fun to find him and take a photo with him.

Thanks for the info! Read the yuzusorbet's blog too. It was like her own version of beautiful Sendai Meguri or Shumatsu Sendai Here's additional information about Rikyu, Hamaya, and The Super Sports Xebio Sendai: Other places you can find Yuzu's autograph in Sendai: Gyutan Sumiyaki Rikyu Izumi Honten (牛たん炭焼　利休　泉本店) https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g298249-d6054047-Reviews-Gyutan_Sumiyaki_Rikyu_Izumi_Honten-Sendai_Miyagi_Prefecture_Tohoku.html Ryotei Hamaya Asuto Nagamachi branch(漁亭浜や あすと長町店) https://twitter.com/yuriagehamaya https://savorjapan.com/0006096908/ Photos shared by the shop: You can also see the letter from his grandparents displayed beside them.

Probably they confused 魚 (means fish, and reads gyo, uo, or sakana) and 漁 (means fishing or hunting, reads ryo) Seems like another one given during TOI is displayed in Xebio Arena near it, but I am not sure if you can go inside and see it without a ticket for an event.

Another place to visit in Sendai: Jogi Tofuten (定義とうふ店): https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g298249-d1669513-Reviews-Jogi_Tofuten-Sendai_Miyagi_Prefecture_Tohoku.html Fried tofu is their specialty.

OK, you are right... I thought so too but I also thought that Brian's hands could be bigger than I thought...

Is this the one who fell into Brian's hands when he was in the Kiss and Cry last year?

Thank you for sharing @kaeryth! It's a really nice interview so I was hoping that it would be read by many people. As he introduced this article, he said half of the time during the interview he was talking about pancakes and wondered if it would be released in the next issue

Player of Japanese Imperial Court music Sukeyasu Shiba, who played and composed "Ichigyo no fu" in the original soundtrack of Onmyoji has passed away on July 5th because of malignant lymphoma. He will be missed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23EfsN7vEOA&feature=youtu.be&t=189

His goatee looks thinner in this photo...

Thank you for sharing! Wow. I love his straightforwardness.
