Same, I think he still has so much, so so much to deliver. It lays in his every move, in every element, in the flow of the program, not just in high scored jumps. I wish that he could recover physically and mentally very soon (he must be in a devastating state now :(( how could he not. even we are) and treat this Olympic as a part of his journey, face it, embrace it and transform it to his strength and move forward. (My mind is also like a mess right now, LMAO)

Hi, I am a newbie and just want to express a piece of my mind and heart, which were in a chaotic state for the past few days. I have to say I was disappointed and extremely sad when he popped 4S in the short. Like... he hardly ever popped his quad in the short, (has he ever?), and now he did it in the Olympics (more over because of a hole on the ice T_T). But now... I was thinking, maybe it was because Olympics god also wanted him to go for 4A :)). I don't know if he could go for 4A in the free if he had had about ~110 in the short. Imagine, if he had got great short (as usual) and then went for the 4A in the free and because of that missed the podium, then you can imagine how people would say about him being selfish and such. Anyway, after all that had happen, even though I do feel sad and a little bit regret, I feel so content that I had the chance to witness part of his journey, seeing him going all out for something greater than a medal (I do wish I had knew about him sooner though). And I know this may sound too obvious, but how does he always come back like nothing???? He fell on his 2 first quads, others (most of) would be like "oh, I'm screwed" then have a terrible program till the end. But he always delivers, his second half was still full of dedication, it was still a magnificent performance. Also, I think maybe missing the podium here would do something good for him. As many people say, he must be under immense pressure all the time. People always expect him to top the podium, and he himself loves to compete (and hates losing), so maybe that also became obstacle to him in some way. Now, as he had "done the deed" (of not going to the podium in an extremely important competition), he can go and try everything we would like to do ^_^. Even though not seeing him winning gold in a competition pains me, I still wish for him to continue to compete in many more years. His body may not be in the peak condition, but he still can offer and contribute so so much to the figure skating world. Really, living in this Yuzuru Hanyu era is a privilage.
