it's really well done...once again I find myself thinking how Yuzuru can go from murder face to the sweetest smile ever seen on a human face,he really is so expressive.
-
Not only he clearly respect Yuzuru,he clearly respect and understand Prince artistic view and what his family management is doing :truly touching words (I felt tears while reading it)from a humble wonderful man👏

Hard choice for all of us really

also Nathan pretty please how about costumes?you're using Sir Elton John music,AKA the king of stage costumes...take a hint from him please! This said I don't know why but I find Nathan particulary heavy in his skating but it's early and I wish him all the improvement he can get! -
he's lovely(also while learning the hydroblade he was dressed like Yuzuru PW)....I like to think that in just a few years we will have a whole Yuzuru's generation of skaters .

the music should be Liquid Paradise by The Speakeasies Swing Band....I like Ivett,she has that something that makes her stand out among all the other skaters. -
he says there are many projects a podcast for example but he basically says he has no time right now especially alone. they tease Icardi(famous footballer)becuase there's already a book about him of course:I'm not sure if Max would be able to find a publisher here in Italy but surely if he ever writes it ,it would be fantastic....Max,even with all his adoration for Yuzuru,has a pretty clear vision of him and sport in general,it would be very interesting and revealing.

Guys about Max video ,just the gist of it(my english is not good enough for a proper translation) : He didn't mention FS because that was his personal history(he says later that he started skating when he was 4 and that he practiced every discipline on ice so it is pretty obvious who is the best for him ):yuzuru to him is the absolute number one in the world because he's still here competing challenging himself and changing (as improving)the sport. Yuzuru could very well do something else but he's still here. Max calls him a superior head:someone very very smart ,with a kind of intelligence that goes way beyond what he does in ice.People like him are rare in every sports especially in FS...since Max himself is a former skater ,he knows very well how hard it is to reach Yuzuru Technical excellence :Yuzuru is the perfect combination of that technical excellence and artistry..the famous total packaging..an absolut champion. the other guy ask him to compare Yuzuru to some other athlete:Max says you have to go look for amazing people like Michael Jordan,because they are both 'forward'..as in in they have the brain to sort of forsee how a competion can go ,they both works on their weak side and turns them in strenght point. Then of course you can loose(he says something about a final lost by MJ team?sorry me and basketball are worlds apart)and of course Saitama 2019 but yuzuru had in a couple of years 2 career-stop injuries but he's still here! He won his 2ng OGM with conservative program:he's been palnning to go to Korea with 4 different quads ,his body failed him and still he found another way to compete and win:that's his amazing brain/mind. this year at Worlds he had again problems with his ankle but he went there and fought...in May he did the 4luzt during Faoi:he thinks it will be very fascinating to follow Yuzu next season. FS is an extremely complex sport and to excel in it you really are something else...that's why he thinks Yuzuru is the best. Q:Max you put MJ and Yuzuru togehter do you think they have this rare talent by nature or there's something happening during a given time thatmakes them aware of how great/special thet are? Max says it's something you have since day one(you were born with it):these are athelte with something more in thei head(head as motivations,will to win,strategy ecc)..again Yuzuru could live doing something else(coaching,being a coreographer)but he has goals,he wants to land the 4A for example...maybe Yuzuru's dream is to complete all of 6 quadsin one competition(something belonging to science fiction for Max)but he has a fire inside so you may never know. Yuzuru maturity is shown when he couldn't do his original layout and changed it due to injury:he won period.that's his excellence,where he's truly superior. They asked him to write a book about yuzuru:he says he couldn't alone...but if someone may join in writing he could think about it...anyhow he can't now,yuzuru is still active you don't do that while a sportman is still competing,but surely Yuzuru's life is very interesting and worth exploring or writing about...he'll see. Guys take it for what it is...mistakes and all

congrats on the 2000th post I don't think Yuzuru would overshadow Javi...I mean he's Yuzuru Hanyu so of course he's the best but I have the feeling Javi is pretty confortable with it.....it seems to me they know each other well enough not to care about these things. Of course ROI is impossible while Yuzuru still compete but maybe one day(or maybe during another Continues).

I like to think he existed for like...3 secs?

Not that I ever believe a single word from TSL but jeeez you make so much sense it's scary. ....people brains are so fascinating! Me too...one day maybe he'll show us(in the next Continue maybe?) See you zen-Yuzu,it's been nice to know you

Thank you

Me too...i love this sort of dark-ish side of Kaori!the slower moment of the program aren't that good to me but versus the end when the music picks up she's really extraordinary! also what she doeas around 1.03/1.05 of the 1st video it's really cool. -
Lovely pic...do you guys know if it is possible to get a t-shirt outside of Japan?It's really a cool design!

Costume maybe but I don't think you can use face painting(or use more then normal make up?) in competition or can you? Shoma is really wildin this season who would have thought. -
thank you for translating I've always thought it was sang by Ewan Mcgregor go figure .There's a great version by Tom Waits,another guy with everything but a classical beautiful voice (also George Michael had a jazz-ish version of it).

It seems it was a hot day ...I adore dad-Yuzuru and his sons-jumps

Nathan : I think he has beautiful lines in his shoulders/arms but he doesn't know how to use them...also the music really is a big no for me,as you all have said he's skating to a completely different tempo...pity. Rika: love the costume and the program, of course she still has to work on it and she stil has to mature in terms of expression but it looks really cool and different. Alina:the costume (and Alina of course)are beautiful(although it's a little bit revealing,I wonder if she could use it for an actual competion...I hope she can).She seems more relaxed and sure (it seems to me her jumps are lighter too),wonderful spins too.I just wish they let her hold spirals and IB a little longer because with her lines it would look really nice .Not a fun of this kind of music either but it's already looking better then last year. -
I trust you about this because I am really not an expert (except when people Really sings badly and it’s very evident )but then he’s already a genius skater so that’s not bad😂 About the Olympic Games I really hope he will be part of it some how,I know it’s the summer games but it would be nice to have a tiny moment with Yuzuru maybe during the opening ceremony? The opening ceremony is my fave bit I love the coming of all these people from all over the world and I love the incredible shows it usually is ....again wishful thinking 😉
