Agree. It's good as it is. We had our chuckle and could enjoy the fanboy in Max again. But it shouldn't cause Yuzu any trouble. That would be very bad. For him, for us and the sport, too.

Max is celebrating the elegant shade, too Edit: The original tweet that Max had referred to, has been deleted. So it didn't make any sense for Max to keep a post with a defective link and he deleted his own, too. My guess why the original post has been deleted: Yuzu's words have been paraphrased to make the indirect shade clearer. However, it was unfortunate to put it into quotation marks. That could've backfired to Yuzu and caused him trouble. That's my guess at least.

It's not even that subtle actually "Skating is scored by judges who each have their own criteria, and different ideas on what performance and other components mean" Yep, who needs a handbook and guidelines... Edit: I really celebrate his attitude. Not lamenting over the scores, the system, the technical evolution. Yuzu wants to give his answer on the ice, convince with quality and simply force the judges into top scoring.

The typical inner conflict of J4:

Okay so in ~8 hours there will be the Sports&News featuring the 4A infos? I'm a bit confused with the timezones. The Infotweet says 23:55-24:55 JST

That includes that he doesn't use KOSE/Sekkisei either Edit: He said that he will try hard with skin care in the future... uhm... Tbh he looks perfect as he is, it can only get worse imo

Thank you! Not stellar quality, but it works well on my tablet. If I could understand Japanese, it would be perfect

Do we know, where exactly we can find the livestream on their Insta?

Last season he didn't even go for max. BV, as we could see with the 4T+3A sequence What I realized once more is that Yuzu never lets his programs go really. Even with mistakes he sells everything and skates his heart out. We could see that with Masquerade, we could see that in his Olympic freeskates and many other performances, too. I've rewatched his last performances from Skate Canada 2016. They were better than I remembered, especially the freeskate deserved more than 88 in PCS imo. Especially when I see what kind of programs get 88 nowadays...

Sorry for the double post, but this is just too hilarious. Has this been shared somewhere already? Miki and Shizuka singing along with Masquerade

Yeah!!! I've been waiting for a high quality video of that EX since forever. Thank you OC!! Hihi Olympic Channel is in fanmode again

The crazy thing is: you may do all steps right and still miss the final in that ladies' field...

I'm curious, if we get to know something new about the 4A status/progress in this broadcast. He said that he practiced it before FaOI, but sprained his left ankle 10 days before Makuhari or sth like that...? That's all I remember. Do we know anything else about Nessie? The only footage I remember of him attempting a 4A was at FaOI 2015 in his prototype Seimei costume, aye?

And there we go. Successful 4Lz in Kobe, 4F attempts in Toyama, mentioned 4A practice before FaOI For me this smells a little bit like Beijing preparation... I don't believe that Yuzu puts so much effort into his technical upgrade for just one more season. But... who knows...

Imagine, if Yuzu landed Nessie successfully for the first time in that event and Max could comment live in Torino on that historic moment. THAT emotional outburst...

NO. I need Max and Yuzu peptalk in the Eurosport studio in Torino. That has to happen. Edit: And of course I wish good results for Yuzu in both GPs

Seriously, the quad Lutzifer trio Yuzu, Boyang and Kolyada is my favorite in the men's event. Love the quality of their jumps (take-off, height, distance), love their skating style and I love them as characters. All three. Fingers crossed that they all get back to their very best and share the podiums.

I wonder, who has been more kuyashii after Saitama: Yuzu or Max? Max' Twitter account has turned into a Yuzu newsfeed, aye?

Fun fact: since 16/17 Kolyada always had at least one GP with Yuzu together: 16/17: NHK 17/18: COR 18/19: HGP and COR 19/20: SC and NHK This must be faith or smth Edit: I'm still surprised that Kolyada is not at COR this season... Why?!

Seriously: NHK cannot not use the IceScope to measure Nessie, aye? Height: 1.10m Distance: Error Entry speed: 20km/h

Ahh, thank you! Didn't know that. I thought that the IceScope is a general Japanese tool. Edit: Petition that they share the IceScope. This season it could be more fun than ever.

You have to see it this way: NHK might not allow fancams, but they can escalate with the IceScope this time and measure Yuzu's 4Lz, 4Lo, 4F, 4A...

Yeah, this will be so cruel... I think the line-up for the substitutes will be better than ever in the history of the GP series

As I said... This season could be another 15/16 scenario. Hopefully with a better outcome at Worlds this time...

OMG NHK pairs Sui/Han Vs James/Cipres Vs Monica/Guarise Vs Towers/Marinaro That is overkill
