    This was retweeted on my TL and I just like the title of the student's work... And speaking of Pooh

    They are going to need him if this season is messed up as much as it looks like it's going to be. Oh, and I love how, when I used google translate on that Russian article, it brought up a subtitle for one of the pictures as "The face of the child and the soul of a samurai" and later mention "this half-human demigod" Google loves him too.....

    The first two GPs are America and Canada, right? Can't see either country opening the borders very much for international sporting events, especially if their own national ones ones are still struggling to get going. I don't think we will get a media day this year, when's the latest we can hear about his programs?

    Now two of the JGP series have been cancelled, I can't see the series going ahead. The senior GP and others like the ACI.... hard to say.

    I di understand, I was just given 2 CDs - Joe Hisaishi and Sheku Kanneh Mason and the sound is different.

    Requiem??? Oh...... I adore it, even though I have yet to watch the 2016 Boston performance without getting that teary catch in the back of the throat - even before I knew about his health problems and fear of not skating again. The emotional punch of Requiem as a whole is something few skaters could ever reach and also control the way he does.

    Simply adorable!

    That first Masquerade was really ssomething else, the wild excitement could be felt right through the computer screen....

    I loved the video at the end of Yuzu's 2018 Olympic SP, with Nobu crying his eyes out in sheer overwhelming joy for him...

    Has this been put up? The playlist for the GPF 2015 stream in coming up... https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuiPiC1Hk8eIRX3OmdUazsG9iYvnDu4mw

    The Olympic Channel are still asking questions they already know the answer for... Of course, Yuzu's life comes waaaay under the 'Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction' label

    I think someone at the channel looked at the viewing figures for 2017 Worlds (as distinct from 2018). What's the betting NHK 2015 and Worlds 2012 appear quite soon?

    The thing is, yes, Yuzu does have a lunatic fringe in his fandom. So does every other major skater and pretty much every other fandom, whether sporting, media or whatever. And in my experience most tend to be more or less the same percentage of the whole (with some exceptions, of course) But Yuzu is so popular that his lunatic fringe alone is bigger than any other male skater's whole fandom. Even Shoma and Takahashi, and definitely more than say Patrick or Nathan or Boyang. What the naysayers don't like to acknowledge is that the good and wellbehaved and appreciative percentage of Yuzuru's fan body is way way more huge than pretty much anyone's this millenium except Yuna: that without them, the men would all be skating in emptier rinks and all to far less cheering and applause. The commentators have noted quite often that the Japanese fans are there for Yuzu - and Shoma - but cheer the rest with way more enthusiasm than most other group could manage (witness the Russian fans at Sochi) Also... to put it bluntly - the taste of the sour grapes must be unpleasant for them.

    I feel for you. I am in a country that has gotten off incredibly lightly (though thanks to OUR leader's big mouth vis a vis China, may not do so economically) but is talking about not opening the borders till close to the end of the year. We are not even admitting approved temporary residents who were visiting their homes when the borders closed, which I think is cruel but the government is adamant. I look at the numbers in your country and elsewhere and feel like crying. Luckily the first skating competition for ages to be held in Australia, the 4CC, won't be till early next year, so fingers crossed. The GPF series , I can't see Skate Canada and Skate America going ahead and if not, the whole series has to be a washout.

    Dear Javi.... he looks well, if tired.
  24. TallyT
    Are we sure he is in Japan right now? Last I heard, it was still a mystery....

    He makes us proud to be his fans, he really does.
