4A is the 'Fleeting Dream', I believe. And when he talks about everything he cherishes disappearing all of a sudden, it seems pretty clear that he's making reference to the 3/11 Tohoku Disaster that he lived through and wondered if he'd have to quit skating

Nam is a man of good taste.

The ISU is only a sport governing body for competitive skating of various kinds. They literally have nothing to do with ice shows (or should not, at least). Oh, what did Nam say? I feel like he'd be really excited over the whole thing.

No kidding, eh? Not to mention all the ice shows. The only ones who don't look ...ummm, lesser next to this are people like Elladj, who are out there doing their own thing ...actually, strike that. Tessa & Scott's farewell tour across Canada, Rock the Rink, had some similar elements of self-disclosure. But not like this

Plus the Challenge Cup was on in the Netherlands, with half the Japan team there. Couldn't watch even if they wanted to. By the way, after Challenge Cup, Kaori is now #1 Woman in the ISU standings. She seems to be taking to winning like a duck to water... I wasn't thinking of it in these terms but I agree with this interpretation

Regarding other skaters' reactions: Jordan watched, and was blown away. https://instagram.com/stories/oniceperspectives/3047407505969584188?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY=

I think, from a stage management perspective, they serve a number of different narrative purposes. And while I'm on the topic of rewatching, I'd like to take a minute to appreciate the job the GIFT band did with LGC. I was too busy expecting Yuzu to appear in the PPOS and rock out that LGC choreo on the first viewing to pay attention to the band, but they really did Prince justice!

Just rewatching gift and I realized that the way the two hands are positioned above the bandstands looks a bit like someone presenting an open jewel box. Like a GIFT

You know, just from a purely skating perspective, I love A Fleeting Dream so much. It's all about the edges, the balance, the flow... simply skating, done well.

Sent you a possible solution via DM. Let me know if it works

Still no word from the satellites who were in attendance at TD? Yuzu must have stunned them completely 😁

It wouldn't even let me try! Couldn't access the site until I logged in with my phone

Oh no, @Geo1! That's awful. I ran into a problam because the Global Coding site didn't like that I still run Win 7 on my laptop, so I ended up watching on my phone! Hard on my eyes but still worth it.

I feel like it's a really conservative estimate. More than 100 cinemas would most likely be more than 30,000 seats. They're assuming a 300 seat average per cinema Did a quick back-of-envelope calc and ticket revenues for the Dome alone would come in just under $9 million. Not sure what the cost to stage the show was but I'm going to assume it paid for itself at least

Congratulations! Also, it was pretty clear to me that Yuzu was making it obvious throughout GIFT that we fans are an important part of his story - he seems to consider fans as part of the starlight that encourages him.

Like Sleeping Beauty! I just woke up.

Now that I've been up all night waiting for and then watching GIFT, time to decide whether to go to bed for a bit or just go to early Mass and get on with my day. Kinda worn out. Not going to lie, watching Yuzu skate anything is wonderful, but also takes a lot of energy. I need to recharge!

Just remember that it's only available for rewatching until 11:59pm Taiwan time on March 1

oh my gosh this is so gorgeous. Couldn't really see it well on the phone screen

I don't wanna talk about it too much because the Planet has a rule about Twitter drama, but it was definitely one of those moments. I wasn't even given a chance to fix my Tweets - just instant suspend and they've so far refused to reinstate me

Can't wait to hear what they have to say. I'm surprised no one posted from the Dome already

I got permanently suspended on Twitter for voicing some fairly sensible political opinions that a certain Tesla founder didn't like, so please post my share, thank you.

very important point. none of this would be possible without the Internet and especially YouTube

not sure, but they probably need a few minutes to render the stream into a replayable video, so give it a bit

So, you know how I always said that when you watch Yuzu skate live, it makes you feel like he's sharing his heart? This is what I meant, only not quite so literal
