    So the discussion today about LGC and PPOS made me wonder what kind of Yuzu programs do people prefer. I personally love him at his hot and fiery best and could watch him bring the passion all day in pieces like LGC and PW....but he's a master at the cool, lyrical, flowing perfection of programs such as Ballade, too. Of course, we can sit down and watch Seimei and have both at the same time. So, what 'temperature' do you hope he goes for next? Hot, or cold?

    Wow that clip seems so quaint now...all those judges would faint if they saw some of the costumes today. And

    Little does he know....Yuzu would simply pick his brain for dance tips, like with Nomura Mansai

    I do like Prince, and personally I've always thought LGC was more Prince than even Prince himself could have done. I don't know what kind of research Yuzu did when he was putting together that program, but he captured the essence of Prince perfectly...right down to the the PPOS, which are exactly like something Prince would have worn early on in his career. Prince was never shy about showing off that kind of thing at all. So I find Yuzu's accomplishment with that program all the more amazing. LGC is, for me, less like 'Yuzu skates Prince' and more like a portrayal of 'What if Prince were a champion figure skater'. Apart from Yuzu's attractiveness and athleticism, with LGC Yuzu's also doing a fantastic job of playing the character of Prince. It's amazing in every aspect.

    Kose has delayed the launch of Yuzu as their 'global muse', so there's that.

    And for the foreseeable future.

    My dear satellite, they are called that because both the fit, and the physique displayed, is such perfection that it might tempt the very angels to fall from heaven... Please forgive my poetic hyperbole. except it's not really hyperbole. That boy looked so fine in those...

    ...just saw a Google translate from Chinese to English that ended up calling him String Knot Player...

    There's a cute cat in the video too!

    Doing ice angels no less. LOL! @Songster01 I don't have high hopes for any NHL players to respect quarantine. As a group, they're kind of the epitome of privilege and entitlement. I'm not enthused about hockey's return at all, I feel like it's too soon and entirely unnecessary

    That's what I thought, too. ( That he was already out). He says in the interview that he thought it would serve the cause of gay rights if he did come out.

    ...was going to post something but decided against. Not sure if it's too gossipy or not. Found a less sensationalized version: https://www.lequipe.fr/Patinage-artistique/Actualites/-s-exposer-sert-la-cause-homosexuelle-estime-guillaume-cizeron/1137901

    Exactly.

    The only one I'd have a hard time with is the women's because meh. I know exactly who I'd pick in all the other categories.

    But why on Earth would he have stayed in Toronto once he knew that Worlds was cancelled? Even in a normal season, he goes back to Japan as soon as Worlds are over because he has WTT and/or ice shows to prepare for. Being in Japan from the end of March until mid-July is his normal schedule in any given year - why would you all suddenly think it would be different now? The only difference is that he's not on the road going around Japan with FaOI. 100%, he's in Japan, and has been since mid-March, before borders closed. Think about it - it's what he does every. year.

    I really want the costume book too but from what you're saying, I guess it's better to wait until things sort themselves out.

    "In this article from Iwate Daily, the manager of Ice Rink Sendai, Ariie-san said they took advice from Yuzu when they equipped the sound facilities" Because of course they did. Stories like these remind me of what someone told me once about a military sonar operator they knew - the guy had his music collection organized by the sound quality of the recordings. Yuzu seems to be that kind of sensitive hearer.

    Come on, why do people keep wondering this? There's absolutely no reason for him to be anywhere else except for at home in Japan. The question is whether or not the restrictions on travel to Canada will be lifted in time for it to make sense for him to come back here before the season starts or not.
  22. rockstaryuzu
    My guess from observing him as a fan is that it's more a case of being so dedicated to skating he can't help but become isolated (aka it's lonely at the top), but he's never struck me as introverted. Look at the way he chatters away to the others at medal ceremonies...Keiji is on record as saying Yuzu never shuts up LOL. The very fact that he is able to draw energy for his performances from the crowd support is a classic sign of an extrovert. An introvert would find all that attention draining.
  23. rockstaryuzu
    Now you're just underestimating the hacking power of millions of fanyus.
  24. rockstaryuzu
    Depends on where the season starts but if worst comes to worst, probably whatever is the earliest local Japanese competition he's eligible for...sectionals I guess? If ACI happens, then probably there.

    Pretty much. Considering how invasive the drug testing regimens are in some sports, it astounds me that people still manage to cheat.
