  1. "I'm stubborn and I hate to lose..." oh Yuzu honey, tell us something we (and your competitors/coaches/Federation/pretty much everyone) don't already know all too well....
  2. I have just made this my wallpaper on the baby notebook, it is so sweet and serene and lovely...

    until

    https://mov3.co/en/ntv/ and http://www.itver.cc/ntv/ both seem to be working for me here in Australia
  4. Yuzu is on the NHK channel at the minute, talking to kiddies... even though I understand not one word, it's adorable. Oh drabbit, gone all too soon, hope someone uploads it...
  5. He's said something that makes everyone think his program is a song about bouncing balls or jumping beans? or he's said anything at all and Japan is bouncing with anticipation? or they're trying to annoy him into saying anything at all in the first place? Or Japan has gone as stir crazy as us....
  6. Because I came into skating this time through Yuzu, that was the first time I even saw/heard of Takahashi and now I simply avoid anything about him because when I look at him, little Yuzu's face pops up in my head.... not the other skater's fault but hey, he doesn't need me so I roll with it. And as for the uglier fans, I just remind myself how beautifully Yuzu has 'replied' to them with the classic saying... "living well is the best revenge."
  7. Can anyone explain this one? It's dead cute, and I have no idea what it's about...
  8. I think it was wise/fortuitous/lucky that he chose right from the start not to go the social media route, for his own reasons (which are no one's business, of course, but why not?), as - now he is insanely popular but also has pretty insane antis - no one questions it. If he did, and later chose or had to drop it, there would be endless speculation on what caused it. But he's much better off with people just used to the fact that he doesn't and never has. He's actually very good at protecting the privacy he does have...
  9. Riiiight, that's gonna mean the mute button gets another workout...
  10. What worries me is I look at the Javi-faced Yuzu and my mind keeps going "he looks familiar, now where have I seen him before???" (and it's not just on Javi!) So there is somewhere in the world a doppelganger to this, umm, vision...
  11. Scroll down the twitter feed for the nightmare vision of an Olympic podium... https://twitter.com/yuzuroo_/status/1030988341229936640 (I'm showing as a link to spare tender sensibilities) Yuzuru does need to do something to stop the flow of madness, it's his duty....
  12. ...............I shall have nightmares tonight.....
  13. They're after my precioussssssssssss................
  14. Watching the state of Brian's hair as the season progresses
  15. I'm hoping he keeps it that bit longer and we get a swept back (a la LGC) look for at least one of the new programs, which {foot tapping} we are still waiting on...........
  16. Oh wow... we need Yuzu in black, we really really do.
  17. Right now, they are showing Virtue and Moir on the FaOI broadcast and while they don;t do much for me per se, I am happy becuse I have soooooooo found the skaters to do the Masochism Waltz of my dreams. Especially Tessa. I mean, can't you see her with a whip?
  18. The ice cream is obviously going a treat (and I still want some...)
  19. By the way, is there a broadcast this weekend? I may need to brush up my Fuji-ing skillz.....
  20. Yuzuru better not get too many ideas... yes, a trim is nice (just to keep it out of his eyes during quads) but....
  21. Ummm, just my opinion here and unblushingly OTT too... unquestionably, Javi is an incredibly gorgeous man (easily in my top three of skaters for classic good looks and outshone everyone else at the last Olympics for that IMO). And those eyelashes - I adore gorgeous eyelashes on a man, and his are spectacular. Yuzuru is something else. He may not have classic features but he does have that triangular, feline face (large eyes, wide cheeks, small softly pointed chin) which is utterly appealing, lovely skin and lips, that long slender frame that makes pretty much everyone around him look that bit heavier than they actually are, or that bit lankier (Boyang, Nathan). And incredible visual expressiveness - his personality and emotions shine through face and body when he's skating (and a lot of the time when he's not). He totally draws the eye from pretty much everyone around him, even when they are more conventionally handsome (the camera loves both Yuzu and Javi, tbh) and there are moments - quite a lot of them - when he can take 'beautiful' to an almost unearthly level. And then, of course, he turns into a lovable but not even vaguely unearthly dork
  22. The Chinese lady is an unabashed fanyu, isn't she? Not that I disagree at all, but most commentators don't wax quite so lyrical about a face "as lovely as jade" "grace of a swimming dragon" etc... and of course the pretty well now iconic "fate whispered to the warrior" quote. Love it.
  23. Javi, like Yuzu, is a sucker for kids...
