I'm not sure if I understand your question correct, but the result of the lottery will let us know the time window you can shop for goods. On October 31 (Wed.) the result of the lottery will be announced and you can buy the merchandise during your time window. However, some people may not be able to come to the Saitama Super Arena at the designated time due to flight times and other reasons. Those people can still do shopping after their designated time windows. In other words, you can be late for the time. You will not be able to enter the merchandise booth before the designated time, but will be able to enter anytime after your designated time. I hope this will answer your question!

Preparations for merchandise sales have already begun.

Yuzuru Hanyu ICE STORY 2023 "GIFT" at Tokyo Dome" official goods GIFT special newspaper

I also went to Prologue last Saturday and enjoyed it very much though my seat was "standing room" I am very grateful that I could win this precious ticket. When I saw the word "当選"（the ticket is awarded）at ticket site, I couldn't believe my eyes and literally screamed and jumped up and down in the room. (Luckily I was alone at home at that time) The show was 90 minute long, so I wasn't tired much. If it had been FaOI, I couldn't have kept standing! My most favorite program at the show is R&J1. I saw this program also at the last day of CWW, but R&J1 here was more beautiful and sophisticated, and all the jumps were perfectly clean. I will remember forever how absolutely beautiful his 3A3T was. I think using a glowing bangle is a very good idea. It was fun to light up the bangle to respond to Yuzu. Just before the show began, a piece of paper was passed around to me. It asked us to light up the bangle blue to show Yuzu our support before PW. I read it through and quickly passed it to my neighbor. I was a little worried if this plan would work. When he finished Haruyo Koi and went to backstage, I made my bangle glow blue and anxiously looked up and down the arena. Then yes, I saw the venue was gradually filled with beautiful blue lights! We waved our blue bangles throughout PW and until his last lap. I hope he felt our love and support For now, I failed the lottery for Hachinohe, but I will keep trying.

That's a great news! I'll be there on Saturday,so I will look around and try to find Ghislain!! I'm sure I'll be able to recognize him even if he is thin now Luckily,I have tickets for the three days in Makuhari. Now, I am writing this in the train on the way to Makuhari. I can't wait to see Yuzu after 3 months!

I was so late to report my experience but maybe better than nothing? I went to J-Nats, and saw Yuzu's SP, Free and EX! The most impressive one is his short program, Roncapu!!(Sorry, I can't spell the formal name.) That night in the arena we didn't know almost anything about the program except the title of music. I was anxious because everybody's expectation was extremely high. When he appeared in that new costume, I thought "Isn't it too feminine? Isn't the color too similar to Otonal?? Isn't the style too similar to Swan???" To be honest, I didn't like the costume too much But, the moment he started to skate, I forgot everything. My seat was on the judge side. His 4S was perfect, 4T3T was slightly shaky, and 3A itself, he could have jumped even better one, but the move before 3A was so dramatic and unique. The spin right after 3A was very fast, and then the step sequence... It's unbelievably gorgeous. This is the most passionate step I've ever seen from him! All of us in Saitama Arena were stunned and overwhelmed by it. I felt like we were drawn into his skate, and also felt his soul shone, filling the arena with a dazzling blue light. We started to crap in the middle of the step sequence and just couldn't stop, so continued to crap though the last spin! We were on our feet even before the performance was over, waving the banners enthusiastically. I can't write well how happy I was at that moment. It was an honor to see such an amazing performance live! The atmosphere in Keyaki Square in front of Saitama Super Arena after Yuzu won the competition two days later was great. I won't forget that night's festive mood forever. We were all happy and excited, walking toward the train station through the trees decorated beautifully with Christmas color lights, and in the station someone was playing Yuzu's program music on a street piano. I read here that in Beijing there will be assigned audience, or at worst, no audience. I hope Yuzu will remember we always support him even if he can't hear our applause and can't see our banners. Well, I read on the twitter that some of the audience will be chosen from the universities nearby and one Yuzu fan was luckily chosen!

KOSE has shown us Origin costume in their shop tour of Maison Kose Ginza (17:50～). You can also see Yuzu's photo in Believe orange costume (2:56～). https://www.instagram.com/p/CWS3m64j3_Y/ I went there to see Origin costume last Saturday between Dance FD and Ladies Free, but couldn't see it. Because too many people visited there to see the costume, they distributed the numbered tickets. My time slot was 18:30, which was in the middle of Ladies Free and I couldn't get out of the venue. I heard that the costumes will be on display until the end of January, so I'm betting on the next opportunity! This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

I was so shocked to hear the news about Yuzu's injury I haven't come to this forum for a whole week.... Yesterday a NHK Trophy pamphlet was delivered to my house. I regained some of my energy after reading Yuzu's interview in it. About NHK Trophy pamphlet, I sent DM to you. Could you please check your message box? Thank you!

Yes, that's what I thought about the practice though I really need to arrive at the venue early to enter in time for Yuzu's practice. There must be a lot of people waiting in line in front of the entrance.　I remember on exhibition day of WTT 2017 all of us dashed from the entrance to catch a glimpse of Yuzu practicing Swan, and the staffs said to us, "Please don't run! It's dangerous!" I tried to get a ticket for SP and EX really hard, but I failed all the lotteries. Having just one ticket for any day of this competition is very lucky, I think On second thought, the program we definitely know Yuzu will perform is only Ten to Chi to. The other two programs, Short and Exhibition programs, are hidden in a veil of secrecy. I'm wondering how we will know about them, especially a SP. Is he going to announce at the press conference before the competition?, which used to take place but in the corona era I'm not sure.

WOW! Congratulations!! I also have a ticket for Men's free skating.... I'm a member of Ice Crystal, so when Yuzu said "楽しみにしていて下さいね（Please look forward to it!)" in the interview where he was seen wearing green pants, I already had a ticket, and I felt so scary, realizing 4A will come! It was about ten days ago, and now I am still very nervous but also getting exited little by little. I can't imagine how I will feel next Saturday when I will depart for Yoyogi Taiikukan. Have you seen the practice schedule? Perhaps we might see the practice if we go there early?

Yes, I agree with you. The tone of his voice is very bright and confident. I don't know about the result, but I'm almost sure he will try 4A at NHK Trophy. I suddenly feel very scared... I just pray he will be healthy and happy

I love this fan art so much, but cannot translate the mood very well. Please someone help me! It's about a jump challenge at SOI. Sakamoto: "Senpai, aren't you going to do that?" 「先輩は出ないんすか？」very casual way to ask. Yuzuru: "Ah, mustache thing is not for me." 「あー、俺ヒゲNG。」very very bossy.

Yuzu's name is on the entry list, but according to Nikkan Sports; "He will cautiously decide if he will take part in the competition. The situation is fluid, but the chance of his participation in Japan Nationals is not zero now." https://www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/202011250000569.html So obviously, as of now he doesn't tell JSF any intention of WD, but it seems like he will see the situation of Covid19 in December and decide if he will go to Nagano.

Yes, you are almost correct. 特別な愛は特別なあなたに That's what he said, which means "Special love for special you."

Last night it was announced that "Every" would air Yuzu's segment of 24h TV this evening, and we all waited in front of TV. Then the first scene we saw is this. I was like:

As far as I remember, the sale began at 10 o'clock in the morning of July 1st, so if you finished order process in the first two hours, you'll get the towels by late August. Otherwise, the delivery will be delayed for 2 or 3 months. I suppose there might be lack of man power at production factory due to Corona virus.

If there are people who ordered hand towels at Yuzuru Exhibits here...it seems like the demand for them is too high. As a result, 7月1日昼頃までの申込＝2020年8月下旬までにお届け予定 7月1日昼頃～7月10日頃までに申込＝10月中旬までにお届け予定 7月10日以降に申込＝11月下旬までにお届け予定 ※衣装ハンドタオルの種類により時期が前後する可能性あり Orders placed by around noon at July 1 = Your towels will be delivered by late August Orders placed between noon at July 1 and July 10 = Your towels will be delivered by mid October Orders placed after July 10 = Your towels will be delivered by late November Maybe hand towels they initially prepared went out of stock in the morning of July 1, that was the first day of Yuzuru Exhibits.

Congrats! 　おめおめ！ Exactly...they are just normal towels Still, Nishikawa is a top brand Futon maker. I expect the towels are of high quality By the way, the hand towels of Yuzuru Hanyu Exhibit are also the products of Nishikawa. (Of course... Nishikawa is Yuzu's sponsor after all. )

I successfully could get two Nishikawa files A and B!!! At first the site was completely down and I couldn't proceed at all. I almost cried (hahaha), but after hitting F5 like crazy for thirty minutes, I could reach to the shopping page and bought two towels. First I chose a file B (Masquerade one) . I was so relieved, and then I tried another towel. It was relatively smooth to buy the second towel. I chose file A, very careful not to choose Hiepita There's still chance tomorrow, so don't lose your hope! Tomorrow at noon, there's another sale on line My advise is at 12:00 you should put the good into your cart (also, don't choose cheap ones because they are popular and will be sold out quickly), then just keep hitting F5. After 12:30, I felt the site moved faster and I could go on more smoothly, so don't give up before 12:30. I read many people could buy the towels between 12:40-13:00. Good luck!

I don't know how many merchandise they prepare for the campaign, but in the first place their web site is so fragile that as soon as the clock points to 12 o'clock when the campaign starts, the site is down because fans all over Japan rush and try to access the site. We can't access it AT ALL. So basically, I reload the site many times like crazy, and if the miracle happens and there appears the front page, I choose any available good without thinking size, color, or even price. Just be quick to click anything with a shaking finger. However, even if I can successfully put a blanket or a bed pad or whatever into my cart, when I go on to payment process, a message will appear very often: The good you ordered is already sold out. Choose another one. AHHHH So, basically it's same as the purchase process of a ticket (in case of not lottery but first come, first get one) for competitions or ice shows Yuzu attends. When I can access the site again without problems after like 30 minutes, I see everything was sold out, perhaps except the extremely expensive ones You know, if I can't buy anything I can't get those files!!! Now, TV Asahi 2 is airing FaOI Makuhari 2015. I have to watch Vertigo and Believe! Although I'm very sad that I can't attend ice shows this year, and I don't know where Yuzu is right now, I am thankful to Yuzu, his sponsors, his publishers, his photographers, and TVs. They make us very busy and occupied with all those campaigns, photo books and the exhibit.

I made an arrangement for "Telework" i.e. remote work from home on July 6th....solely to fight for this clear file. In the last two campaigns of Nishikawa, it was extremely difficult for me to take part in on line fighting shopping at noon at work place with my colleagues constantly talking to me, so... Still, I'm not confident, at all. The internet of my house is quite slow..... Re: clear files, don't you use them at work??? I use them, a lot! Not only me, but as far as I know, here in Japan, everyone uses them a lot at work. We need them when sending papers by interoffice mail, when keeping pending papers, when bringing papers to the conference room, etc...Of course, I usually use plain clear files at work, but the color has many variations. I prefer clear, blue, and green files. Yuzu's clear files are for the collection, though, just like all of you. I bought a clear file holder, and put all the Yuzu files in it safely. Some of Yuzu files (if there are two copies) are kept in the drawer of my work desk, and I occasionally see them while working to raise my working spirit.

I don't know how it works, but CDJapan tweets this: It's very sad that this time they don't sell Kewpie dolls...This morning they sold a limited numbers of the Kewpie dolls from the previous exhibit. I tried to order a SEIMEI Kewpie. I have a set of four Kewpie I bought two years ago. They are now displayed on my bookshelf. I thought I would need another one to attach to my bag, but all of them were quickly sold out and I couldn't buy it In addition to Kewpie dolls, some of the merchandise from the previous exhibit are sold on the site and unlike Kewpie, they are still available. I ordered a ticket holder which I bought last time and found quite useful, and an acrylic stand which I also bought last time (H&L) and display in front of my PC at my workplace. I love it, so I ordered a new kind to display side by side

Yes, I know Vermeer. Actually, he is very popular here. His exhibition held in Tokyo last year attracted a lot of people. However, I've never heard of Sebastião Salgado. A cover like this might be the inspiration for Yaguchi-san, maybe?

Yaguchi-san says the design of the cover of the photo book was inspired by Sebastião Salgado's photo book. He wanted his book look like an art book, and according to him, the (Yuzu's?) photo is Vermeer. I googled Sebastião Salgado, but I don't exactly understand what Yaguchi-san meant. Perhaps I will know when I have that photo book in front of me. BTW, another photo book, "Yuzu'll be back Ⅱ" this photo book weighs 1200 grams (1.2kg).

Yes, you're right. Jack will interview the illustrator, not Yuzu.
