  1. It's roughly $32 USD if that helps
  2. Yuzu is worth it, but it's like all our money wants to live in his pockets, I know...
  3. Now that's just scary, it'll be a (very short but sharp) frenzy to buy those.
  4. Is it just me, or are Wakaba's "I hope the medal arrives while I'm still alive" comments in regards to Beijing team event medals absolutely the perfect comment about this situation ?
  5. Not me. Live viewing all the way, for me. I'm just hoping the livestream will hold up and not crash
  6. Their helpdesk seems to be pretty responsive. Try contacting them. I can't think of anything obvious that would cause such a problem
  7. All 👀 on Yuzu!
  8. All my money just wants to be in Yuzu's pockets I guess... oh well...
  9. Yes, and I'm just not seeing where that concern is coming from. To my knowledge, other than the pandemic itself leading to limited opportunities at the time, there is no entity that would have or could have forced him to sign a contract for any ice shows. As to your second point, see my previous post re: the nature of sport.
  10. Yes, indeed, enjoy every minute and cheer him on!
  11. Officially following this topic on the forums. Can't wait to hear about the experiences of the satellites who have been able to go.
  12. At this point my only complaint about Yuzu's professional career is that I don't live in Japan, so I can't go watch him skate in person. Everything else is , we're even getting a livestream. I'm delighted
  13. This. Within reason. But he would know better than we do, when he needs to rest.
  14. @Sombreuil Exactly. Plus there's this: Yuzu is now not only an athlete, but a performer, an artist, by profession. As such, he needs to recharge his creative fires from time to time. One of the ways artists do that is by hanging out with other artists. I have no doubt that doing SOI will give him a chance to do just that. Let's not get in the way of that, y'all. Let the man do his thing.
  15. Unless fanyus were the ones running JSF and the ISU, there is literally no way we could have possibly protected him from them. The best we can hope to do is protect him from other overstepping fans and even that's questionable. Instead of feeling guilty, just trust and support him and be there for him if things go sour.
  16. This. We really need to start trusting Yuzu WAY more. He's a man full-grown and running his own show -literally. If he agreed to do SOI, he has his reasons and they're probably much better than any reason we can think of.
  17. I don't know if they can be called a 'victory lap', although I understand why it might look that way. To me, these shows are uniquely Yuzu things. It's something that no one has ever done before and maybe no one will be able to do again. It's Yuzu's own artistic expression, his alone. It can't be compared to others, to what has come before, at all. And while they're definitely a triumph of his skill and creativity, they're not triumphs, per se. If there's anyone he could possibly be compared to, anyone who's had this kindof impact in the past, it's maybe - maybe - Sonja Henie. Has any other skater held the public's interest so intently, or answered it so well? I think only Yuzu.
