  1. Here are some options for watching the broadcast of RE_PRAY SAGA Day1 on CS Asahi Ch2 in a few hours at 7:00 pm JST. Japanese TV services: https://livejapanesetv.wordpress.com https://japanesetvsystem.square.site/japantv-standard Fan streams:
  2. You can really see him improving in every show and they keep up-leveling the visuals too. I hope he brings back Dark Messenger, Megalovania, and Gate of Living in future shows. I want to see them again!
  3. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Yuzu was totally on fire this entire first half! Dark Messenger was out of this world! So happy for him!! Also very cool that they finally added bones to Megalovania!
  4. This person has an amazing seat! Wish I was there! 1/2 hour to go before the show!
  5. I'm like Yuzu, motivated by deadlines. Just emailed my message and photo. Thank you for everyone's work on this project!
  6. I reaally want a ticket! Let the battle begin! Marika's translation of Yuzu's comment for RE_PRAY: Lae's translation of Yuzu's comment for RE_PRAY: [NEWS]
  7. What we know is he bought a new apartment and he got married, but there's a lot involved with just those 2 things alone which would have taken up a lot of time. Was there a wedding and reception? Planning those events would have taken up time. Packing, moving, customizing & furnishing the new apt. That's also a lot of work. Deciding what to keep and what to throw out always took a long time for me every time I moved. He has to negotiate with his wife where to store all his medals, trophies, pooh bears, earphones, costumes, etc. in the new apt. She needs some closet space too! He has in-laws now, so he will have additional family obligations. And he's doing this on top of his usual practice, future ice-show planning, preparing YouTube videos for us, activities related to his sponsors, TV appearances, etc, and dodging paparazzi and tabloids. I hope he does take some time to relax and settle into his new life. Of course I want to see him skate too, but it doesn't seem at all like a drought to me when I think about all those months we used to get absolutely zero info about him, and all I could do was hoped that he was practicing safely or recovering smoothly. I'm sure he is working on something spectacular for us and all this waiting will be so worth it when we finally see it!
  8. Yuzu crumbs. The hair and suit makes him look mature. Since it's Towa, it makes sense they're going for that look. [NEWS]
  9. Golden Skate's interview with Ghislain Briand. Really nice interview. He talks about Yuzu starting at 10:50, his relationship with Yuzu, why Yuzu is special to him, and training him on 4A. He also touches on why he left TCC, and emphasizes how important it is to put a skater's health first. He is such a great coach! This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].
  10. Thanks for your explanation. It's very annoying that every word he utters is picked apart and criticized by someone. No wonder he kept the announcement as short as possible. Also, it's never enough that they just support their own faves, they always have to drag Yuzu to prop up their faves, and use him to get views. I think no matter how Yuzu announced it, he would still have been criticized. You can't please everyone, and he can only try to do the best he can. Tabloids have always targeted him. He can't even buy an apartment without them leaking the details, enough so that some people figured out where the location was. Imagine if they had a whiff that he was interested in starting a relationship. Would he even have had a chance to meet with her quietly to nurture their relationship? I just have to admire his ninja skills and how smart he was to maintain that "I live a monk's life and I'm married to my skating" image so much so that even people who knew him personally were convinced that he was not interested in dating. That made the tabloids less interested in his activities if all he was doing was going to practice and dealing with business. I suspect he did not want to risk their attention by giving hints to his fans. Yuzu is very aware and he knew he was going to break a lot of hearts with his announcement, so he made it short and simple, and went back to talking about skating in a way to reassure us that things have not changed. I'm not sure what else he could have said. For their security and privacy, he doesn't want to give out details that might accidentally identify her. If he talked about how happy he was in finding love and getting married, wouldn't that just make it harder for the broken-hearted? I'm sure he hated having to hurt his fans and this was not easy for him either.
  11. It was a busy day, and I finally get a break, so I took a peek at Twitter (Yes, I'm calling it Twitter forever). The first thing I see is a post from AERA with the new magazine cover and the message: "Congratulations on the marriage of Yuzuru Hanyu, who will be on the cover of the next issue of AERA. We will continue to deliver the appearance that continues to evolve even after turning professional." I thought, "Ok, Google Translate is being dramatic and calling Yuzu's collaboration with AERA a marriage." Then I started seeing all the other congratulatory messages, so I finally checked YUZURUofficial_ , and OMG, it's for real!! I am soooo happy for him! I had always hoped that someday he would find a special person that he loves as much as he loves ice-chan, and who will always be there for him and bring him happiness. All the best to the new couple and may they enjoy a lifetime of love and happiness together! And yes, I got no work done after that.
  12. Before you rate GIFT, build up your account a little by rating other movies. Otherwise the site may think that you're a bot and will lower the credibility of your rating. Here are some threads on the best way to rate GIFT and make your rating count:
  13. 970K views now. It's not the skate we wanted for him, and it's not the skate he wanted for himself, but this skate really showed his fighting spirit. He gave his all on a busted ankle and despite the first two falls, the rest of the program is excellent. I miss Tenchi. I love watching his winning programs, but I also want Yuzu to know he's got my support even when he doesn't win. I discovered Yuzu during the PyeongChang Olympics, and I know a lot of people discovered him during Beijing. Most new figure skating fans will go to the Olympic videos first, so let's keep boosting his Olympic videos so that new figure skating fans will continue to discover him. If the Beijing programs are too hard to watch, there's always the PyeongChang and Sochi programs.
  14. I think it helps that many people still wear masks on trains in Japan, and I think he also tends to wear a cap in public.
