  1. I sometimes wonder how he sees his unprecedented level of stardom and fannish (and national!) adoration - I mean, he wanted to be Olympic champion, he wanted to be the absolute best, and he must have known, from looking at Takahashi and Mao, that that would mean a high level of public stardom, but he's always called himself an athlete first and foremost, he never aimed to be a celebrity, and not on a level that dwarfs any and everyone else in the sport. Sure, he handles it with amazing grace and skill - even brilliance - but sometimes I think "if you'd told any skating forum/group in 2014 what that that 19-year-old Olympic hopeful was going to become... could anyone believe it?"
  2. I saw him cheering for Jun, just like he always did for Javi from the KnC when Javi was after him... and as Javi did for him. Quite a few fans could learn from our boys, fiercely competitive but utter sportsmen...
  3. I blame you folk... in the wee hours last night I dreamed about Origin Yuzu riding on a giant plesiosaur-Nessie-type creature (and yes, it was goldy, well sort of!!) on a inland frozen lake in the middle of the desert.... which didn't make any sense (how the creature managed the ice wasn't at all clear either) but in the dream who cared???
  4. And - say it though I shouldn't, and though I do love Shoma - because Yuzu has the longer, more slender body, more beautiful lines and curved movement, and that face and hairline, he isn't the one who would suffer in comparison....
  5. I hope he's not ill or anything....
  6. Otonal is beautiful, but Origin is unique, stunning (can you imagine the work that went into it???) and a true Dark Ice Prince. I really can't see how it could be bettered....
  7. It is everything - everything - we were asking and hoping for, and with the LGC hair, even more... The SP one is beautiful too, but Origin is now up with last year's Seimei for me as Number 1. And I think once he gets his stamina and peaking rhythm up, both - but again especially Origin - are going to be programs for people to remember forever.
  8. Mmmmmmm.... if we don't get black, I wouldn't mind this at all.....
  9. That is adorable, and I want them all (well, except the Pooh one)
  10. But he was not only a mere infant when he moved up to the seniors, he started with a bang (2012 worlds) and has in the absolute top rank pretty much since he did that...
  11. I know, I already miss Javi and the season's barely started! - but it was somehow worse watching the media day and knowing he wasn't there. But, like with Yuzu, I still would prefer that they know the right time to go rather than stay and punish/damage their bodies or fight the slow slide down the ranks like so many do...
  12. Has this been posted yet? ... as we head to the next step in evolution....
  13. Yeep, I got all misty-eyed for him...
  14. I'm just both excited and scared for him... it is true, he's talking about it freely, which seems to indicate he is very confident that it's coming, and soon..... if he does it in ACI practice the entire rink, much of Japan and this planet will explode, that's for sure And I swithered so much I now can't remember which I voted for.
  15. So so beautiful... Sorry for the edit, but on my other sceen, where I'm researching something else, it threw up a quite about the Britht actress Jessie Matthews, which I think is very Javi and Yuzu... "She had a heart. It photographed."
  16. Oh I can't forgo work as such (they may not get much sense out of me by then...) I don't work Friday afternoons and being in Australia, I'm hours ahead of Canada anyway, so my problem isn't trying to work, it's trying to live without sleep...
  17. Work? What is this thing you call work? This week,it is as foreign a language as, oh, that thing called sleep........
  18. I can't seem to make the embed work for this, but wanted to share anyway.... https://www.bilibili.com/video/av20900707/?spm_id_from=333.788.videocard.9
  19. Do which know which R&J soundtrack he's chosen?
  20. Oh definitely, triangular with big eyes and that small soft chin... gorgeously feline
  21. That is terrifying and yet thrilling (and proves again just how strong the man in a pair is, Javi wouldn't be that heavy but still... the control on that upside down move is staggering!) and Javi does look like he enjoyed it (I would have been screaming myself)
