I'm pretty sure that Yuzu could rap RunDMC in these blog entries and people would still go buy the product, so don't feel too sorry for them!

Maybe someday he'll do it. Someday when he's not busy trying to capture Nessie.

I'd love to see him do On Ice Perspectives! Imagine seeing Yuzu skating from the POV of being on the rink with him!

5 - 10 minutes on his hair? That's 4.5 more minutes than I do! My hairstyle is best described as ' not tangled and not in my eyes', LOL!

Hanyuconomy at work!

They have to fit those thigh muscles! Truthfully, I'm not sure I'd want to be Yuzu's tailor. That tiny waist combined with those muscular legs would make trousers a real challenge, especially in the kinds of materials suits get made of.

That sounds like a dad joke.

Yes yes. But Yuzu already has Lady Lutzifer back and is working on 4F as far as we can tell. I have no, zero, nada, doubts that he can achieve those, and then 4A. So once he has 4A, he'll have all 6 quads to choose from. At that point, he will be able to vary his programs as needed (i.e. according to ice conditions) picking and choosing from among the jumps in order to ensure his programs always score the maximum BV possible at any given time, with less risk of injury. At least, that's what I am guessing his strategy will become. So, he'll be unbeatable because he will be able to compensate better for the times he's at a disadvantage. Plus, if he makes a program meant to show off 4A, guaranteed it'll be spectacular in all the other aspects too, and score high no matter what. That's just how he rolls.

Absolutely. The skaters who I think might possibly have a chance at all of catching him, are all people who currently have major weaknesses to overcome. They've got a long way to go.

Isn't that what most of them are already doing anyway? It's only the few and the proud who are trying to be 'total package' skaters.

Seriously, though, once Yuzu has the 4A mastered and up to his standards in a program, there'll be no catching him. All the other skaters might as well just go home at that point.

And this, my friends, is how you objectively quantify a 'subjective' sport. ISU take note!

As someone who has legitimately played with dolls for a large part of my life, I'd like to point out that it is actually a pretty normal thing to do with them. Particularly if they're attached to a stick like this one is. I'd have been curious to see how it was put together and flipped Dolly over too.

His baseball form isn't too bad either...better than mine!

This is exactly why I find ladies kind of dull to watch. There's no depth to any of it.

Yuzu: spends a month touring Japan and slaying audiences with fiery hot adult male Masquerade energy Also Yuzu: shows up to his product endorsement live in the sharpest suit and proceeds to channel cute fluffy kitties for an hour. With the help of a doll.

The irony of anyone selecting the Big Smoke for its air quality, I can't even... . Vancouver Island is gorgeous though, and has wonderful air quality. I was there in 2009 for a work conference and took some extra days to poke around. Drove up to Tofino and back. Definitely a good place to live, overall.

Oh, I had forgotten about those! Yeah, BC needs a bit of our Ontario floods to stop those fires. Which islands? I've only visited Salt Spring and it wasn't that easy to get there!

Oh, I wouldn't have been able to afford NHK and go to Worlds too, anyway.

sorry to hear that...

Well, of course. He has unfinished business with SCI after all.

GanbarEh!

*Gasp* Really? YYYYAAAAAAYYYYY!!!!!!! That means my credit-card-melting investment in tickets was not in vain!!! Kelowna here I come!!! Edit: so SCI will be Hanyu vs Kolyada it looks like. Should be interesting just from the point of view of artistic contrast. They're two very different skaters. I hope Kolyada can live up to his potential.

Back from my travels. Sorry to say that I passed through 4 different airports and never saw a single Yuzu Sekkisei ad...

Well I'm relieved to hear that this was a less serious quake than some, and glad that the danger has passed.
