I was also a bit surprised with this. Perhaps he made this decision after Skate Canada was cancelled and now has more time for SP as well.........

Had the same thought, but couldn't find this "CERTAIN PERSONS" ISU bio. I searched with the same key words (of course with our ninjas name) and got absolutly nothing Can you access his ISU-bio page?

In case you haven't seen it, Romans Music for 2020/2021 season: Music Short Program as of season 2020/2021 Exogenesis Symphony Part III by Muse Music Free Skating / Free Dance as of season 2020/2021 Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol arranged by Maxime Rodriguez http://www.isuresults.com/bios/isufs00014082.htm

Wow, just wow Thank you soooooooooooooooo much for this and a big hug to all the translators. Are the new subbed videos going to be added to the Media section later on? Just saw the answer to this question

Same thought, but I would go a step further and say that it would not only concern a change to figure skating in Japan, but to the sport itself, worldwide. Thinking about fair judging, rules etc. Regardless of what he will do after he retires, we can be relatively sure that it has something to do with figure skating, just a feeling. Also, didn't he once say that he would like to produce his own ice show?

I would really like to give a big hug to Roman. Just saw his last "back on the ice" video and was surprised why a second video was suddenly shown and then this, it is so sad. Can't imagin how hard it must be to hold onto the motivation to keep going........

Wow, the details of the costum and the hands and how you got the leg muscles, sooooooo amazing😍. Wish I could do something like this but I never got the hang on drawing or modeling people..........Fortunately, there are many talented people out there, who create beautiful fan art that we can enjoy. PS:..........and great music choice😉

Yes, it's really sad. Unfortunately we have almost no platform for figure skating in Germany. In the past, at least highlights and the Gala were broadcast on TV, but even that stopped some years ago. If I remember correctly, even during Olympics FS was only/mostly shown in the stream and not on TV.......... 2019 Worlds were shown in full on TV for the first time in ages, I think because of the Olympic gold medal and some "promi-figure-skating-show". I really hope that they will continue to broadcast it but I have my doubts and so FS will disappear from the public eye again and with that a possible interest in the Nebelhorn Trophy.

Exactly that! And with the aura he had at Worlds...... gosh, he really looked like a god and a damn dangerous (in a positiv way) one at that. He just looked really stunning in Origin 1.

I can really understand that. Saw him for the first time at GPF-2019 and could "only" come to the Free skate and Gala, but not to the practice sessions. My memory of him sets in as he enters the arena, I thought: "gosh, his costume sparkles so much, like fireworks". After that, blackout.......and my memory only starts again when the Pooh-storm started. So, I'm so happy that I saw him, but if I could do it again, it will definitely be in such a way that I could see the practices, because my nerves get in the way too much during the competition.

Oh, you are not alone with this, same happend to me. Thanks to Roman I have fallen down a new and deep, deep rabbit hole called BTS......... I was at the streaming party but after it, straight back to these amazing, and yes, really cute boys. (and the reason why I had to catch up to 45 pages of this Yuzu chat.....yeah, I'm also a bit distracted by them)

Ah okay, thanks for the information. No idea why I thought what I thought.....maybe I dreamed about it, who knows ..........or I'm the next Nostradamus

Okay, I finally caught up and think I'm up to date again: There was more white-wall-Yuzu, handsome-Citizen-Yuzu and sadly none of the questions was, if he is already working on new programs, or did I miss it, sweet white-shirt-Yuzu and thoughtful-speach-giving-Yuzu, congratulations on-your-thesis-Yuzu and now the not-going-to-do-GP-Yuzu......... I totally understand and respect his decision but I'm a bit confused, hope you can help: Wasn't it already decided that the GP will take place without audience (so no travelling fans) and that it would be a domestic event (that would mean NHK for him)? Thought I had read something like that but I could be completely wrong and mix things up......... PS: so happy to have more streaming partys, thank you PPS: I’m Seimei and really happy about it

The same with me. It looks good, but I can't see it for Yuzu. I would love a costume in style of masquerade, but well........Let's wait and trust him and his designer, that it's going to be amazing fitting for him and his program, like always

Could we then please also get an english version of this book...........and of the other Yuzu books out there too I still don't understand, why this hasn't happened yet when Yuzu has a big international fan community that would buy such books, as everyone should have noticed by now............. So, please dear universe, let some publisher have mercy with us and give us english versions, thank you (and sooner rather than later, please!) I know you can get a translation when you by the first book (think it was the first, not sure), but that is just not the same........

I love it when a modern/pop-like song is combined with traditional sounds or instruments. It gives the songs an interesting mix that makes it exciting to listen to them. Wouldn't mind if Yuzu would skate to something similar again Yes, please Love your video, it's really beautiful........but when i hear the song, I always have to start crying, it's almost like a reflex, no matter what the situation is. Keep my fingers crossed for your grandfather, hope for the best.

I just love the "Axel with Wings" team and everyone else who does eng sub versions and what they do for us non japanese speaking fans, i really appreciate it.

When I first saw this picture I didn't get it, so I stoped the video to have a better look..........then I couldn't stop laughing A typical Yuzu bombed pic. Thank you and @LadyLou for the video. Wish it was a longer number and a Yuzu focused cam but it still made me a really happy girl Edit: And yes, the pics with baby Nam are the cutest

Hey guys, I just stumbled across this video. It's a compilation of old backstage and gala dinner pictures. Some of these pictures I've never seen before, so maybe a few of you are in the same situation and have fun watching some really cute Yuzu pics. Sorry if this already known content for most of you. And if you know where to find a video of pirate Yuzu (see picture at 0:58) I would be a really happy girl

The new design with the feathers looks really beautiful Thank you so much for all the work you admins put in this forum

I think so too. The quotes fit perfectly with the CM, it is a great concept and I love that it looks like a movie The making of is also great. I really like the sound of Yuzus skating. When I saw him live, I thought that his blades somehow sound different to the other skaters, but wasn't 100% sure if it wasn't just my imagination (with the music and clapping and everything else going on). Now I'm quite confident that his skating does sound different to me. Perhaps deeper, not so scratchy? Love that the staff in the making of video seems to be really into it and it sounds like they are astonished by what they see? Do you know what they say?

Same for me. My first reaction was: he looks soooooo mature............and well, a little bit hot

I love this interview too, it moves me to tears every time. It shows so clearly how incredible special Yuzu is and what makes him so different from the other skaters.

In Germany (I'm sure, other countrys have it too) we have something called "unterlassene Hilfeleistung". I don't know if there is a corresponding word in English. Basically it means that everyone is obliged to help without endangering themselves. If you see someone being beaten up, you don't have to run and try to intervene, but you must get the police or other help. If a person is sitting on the floor gasping for breath and obviously having problems, you must go and ask if you can help and if so, call an ambulance or help yourself if you are able to do it. If you don't help and the person suffers any damage because the help was given too late or not at all, you can be sued. I don't want to say that one of the other skaters should have carried him off the ice (and wouldn't that have been a sight to see), but I would have expected someone to check, that he was getting enough breath, because you could see that he was having trouble with it. (of course I don't mean that anyone should have gotten sued, I just want to explain why for me, this "not helping" was so shocking to see)
