Happy 5th Anniversary Planet H! I'm so grateful that we have this wonderful place to gather and share our love and admiration for our dear Yuzu. Thank you admins and mods for all your hard work maintaining this site. Thank you to all the satellites who contribute and make this place so special and fun!

It's been a long time since I've donated. , so just sent a catch-up donation of 100 EUR via PayPal. And also to wish the Planet a very Happy Anniversary! Thank you mods and admins for all you do!

In the Masquerade camel and sit spins, he covers his face with one hand, like a mask. How did I never noticed this?! Truly things!

This is what I used for JNats: There are usually some QQ streams, and those will get posted to the FaOI thread. I had trouble using them the last few times. The quality was not good and the stream kept freezing. I think there are too many people trying to access those streams these days. Others had a better experience, so it may depend on your location. Also, as @EisElle mentioned, if a Chinese broadcaster buys the rights to broadcast FaOI, then they may shut down the QQ streams. I really hope there will be some high-quality options available. If all else fails, some kind soul usually uploads at least Yuzu's part. FaOI was supposed to make a stop in China during 2020 ( I think for the 1st time), but then COVID happened. Also no audience for Beijing, so really feel bad for the Cfanyus who missed out on seeing him twice due to COVID. I'm glad the FaOI news brought you some joy, and I hope times will turn around and get better for you quickly! I wonder if there will be live singers if they are still following COVID protocols and masking. HOWEVER, they can invite Shinya to play Rondo live. I can't wait to see Yuzu and what funky costumes they will make him wear that's always a little too short (but only for him) so that he will flash a little bit of abs for fan service. lololol And now I've got the FaOI opening song running through my head. That really is our summer hit! I hope his ankle is ok too, and he's not pushing himself due to contractual agreements and stuff. When he did CWW, he didn't do any jumps, so I think he can modify his programs based on his ankle condition so it will be more like on ice rehab if he is not fully recovered yet. ETA: I forget his exact words, but in his last Beijing interviews, he said something like he had to return to the difficult grind and he was feeling a little bit lonely. We all worry about his ankle, but I think it makes him very happy doing these shows, and it's good for his mental health.

Marika-san is giving international Fanyus a chance to win clear files from the upcoming art exhibition.

I would love to see Yuzu in an ice show too. It's so nice to see him happy and having fun. I hope he will do shows outside of Japan someday. It's so hard to get tickets for shows in Japan since you need a Japanese phone number and the click battle is a bloodbath. I heard they were also checking ID to enter the venue due to scalpers so you can't even get someone to buy the ticket for you. I don't know how foreigners can attend the ice shows. At 2019 ACI, a fanyu baked cookies of Yuzu dressed in different costumes and passed them out to fans. I got an Origin one. It was so pretty I didn't want to eat it. Fanyus are so talented and generous! I hope everyone gets a chance to go to a comp, meet up with fanyus, and throw a Pooh to Yuzu some day!

Here are cool gifts from Yuzu_Legend and Yonkaiten Pixel! Actually, jfanyus give out the COOLEST stuff at comps. They bring stuff from Japan that's not easy for us to get, like Yuzu Lotte Clear Files. My friends and I even received a box of Haskap berry candies! (Yuzu visited a Haskap berry farm on 24 hr TV).

They can both fake it. It's an ice show, but it's also a job, so it's like being in an office with some unpleasant coworkers. You still have to work with them, so you have to be professional and deal with them. I'm sure Yuzu knows how to handle him.

Oh... ok. I guess I should stop watching now...

I thought it finished, but it looks like it's continuing.... showing the replanting of Sakura trees in the disaster areas.

Welcome @BonnieLou There are also these threads too!

If they accept foreign credit cards, but require a Japanese address, you can use a forwarding service. Tenso is a popular one that many use. If they don't accept foreign credit cards, then you need to use a proxy shopping service. They will purchase the item for you and ship it to you for a fee. You can use Buyee, which is the proxy service associated with Tenso. There is a link to them from the Tenso site. I've used them previously. There are other proxy shopping services and some are cheaper, so you can compare services depending on what you're buying. I've also used ZenMarket. Also, welcome to the Planet!

Wasn't it on one of the media days at TCC? At the start of the 2017-18 season maybe? I wish they would not make these baseless accusations unless they have some proof. Did people learn nothing from the J*vi fiasco? There was real reason to be angry with that, but everyone going on the attack always does more harm than good.

The timing of the post makes me think that Yuzu was satisfied sufficiently with his 4A at Beijing to allow the practice video to be released. At least that's what I hope.

Purple Origin 2.0. He looks so majestic in that color. It seems he was landing it regularly in harness, so he had to move on to learning how to do it without the harness. He looks like he is so close to taming that beast, but he said he needs to work on it quite a bit more. I wish his ankle would hold up and allow him to continue training it, but I don't like how he's popping those pain killers. If he is risking his health for it, I'd rather he let it go and be satisfied that he got this far. The top of his Masquerade costume was originally part leather, but he said it was too hot so he had it redone without the leather. I guess leather pants would also not be comfortable for him.

Someone on Twitter mentioned that it blew up on Tik Tok too, so it could be Tik-Tokkers (I don't know if this is how you refer to them...) commenting on Javi's social. Does anyone have a Tik Tok account and can ask them not to do that?

I thought he was referring to the rehabilitation of his ankle. I guess it can get lonely because recovering from injury is something you have to do on your own. That was the first thing I saw on Twitter today. I thought it was the usual suspects saying sh*t about Yuzu and was surprised when I found out it was Javi. I really wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. I thought maybe the translation wasn't accurate, or it was out of context, or what he said was being overblown, etc. But then I saw many native Spanish speakers confirming that what he had said was indeed not OK. It made me really sad to think how this would hurt Yuzu. He said that although he gets lots of well-wishes and support from fans, it's the support from the people he knows that matter the most to him. I think what was posted previously was a portion of Javi's commentary. Here's the whole thing: This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

Official news! [NEWS]

It looks like since no official media was there, it was supposed to be a private entrance, and people are deleting the posted pictures. That makes sense because usually, you do not see pictures of Yuzu's mom being posted.

These potato quality pictures. Lol. Where are the JMedia uncle photographers?

Yaaay! So good to see him! I love how the staff has Yuzuru Hanyu written on her PPE.
