Well, you can always visit the International fans tickets thread and cry with us

A great job that you can be proud of

A new round for GIFT starts today until the 16th. The results of the previous round have not even come out and there is another one. This is stressful... Btw, if I have not misunderstood the automtic translation, this round is only for applying from mobile, and of course, only for Japanese numbers. Good luck to those who can apply!

I haven't found any translation of this segment of Oh! Bandesu on twitter, so I made it myself. Starting at 1:25 the male host (I don't remember his name) says something like "International fans can also come to Sendai" To make sure I heard correctly, I used the automatic transcription from my video editor and the automatic translation from google, but still not 100% accurate. So, it would be nice if someone can confirm that it's correct. JTB is a tour operator, I bought my JR pass from them in Spain on my first trip to Japan, so yes, there is a possibility that those tour packages will be available to overseas fans as well. If so, another different thing will be to be one of the lucky ones to get one of those packages. We have already more than verified that the demand far exceeds the offer...

Next is ??? and on 11 is concept photo. Maybe that gives us more clues than the ??? if this is a project directly from yuzu, he really likes to keep us on our toes

I think that's why I like Rondo so much, both the music and the skating are so intense. It's normal for Yuzu to find it exhausting, but it's another program that only Hanyu Yuzuru can skate

Interesting. For what you say, for me the programs related to FS are a reflection of what the competition is currently. You can't ask for much reflection or depth from those who are satisfied with jumping (and not even beautifully) and little else. I feel like, except for a few exceptions, the connection between music and skating is fast being lost. Also, for Yuzu skating is not just a sport or his job, for him it is a form of expression and life and it shows not only in his performances, but also in every interview or tv program. Hopefully we can continue to see more programs like this, where we learn more details about how Hanyu Yuzuru's figure skating world is

Speculate about what Notte Stellata will be about. There will be a second teaser on Saturday

Yuzu really has very good judgment when it comes to choosing the artists for his collaborations, right? Kiyozuka is a more than impressive pianist, I have listened to some of the videos on his channel and in a way he is like Yuzu, his way of playing the piano goes beyond the screen and goes directly inside you. Really an amazing artist. Thank you all for the updates!

Thanks for the translation! Is it too soon to start speculation?

I'm looking forward to tomorrow's NHK Classic. Kiyozuka-san is very passionate when he talks, it will be fun and interesting to see them together

Sorry for continuing off topic: will you go see them live??? I have only been able to see Miyavi and Hyde live because they came to Barcelona, Miyavi has done it a few times I still remember how impressed I was by Hyde. He looked so small when he came on stage, but he becomes so big as soon as he starts singing... Good old memories

I know! I was like WTF when I first saw Miyavi and Yoshiki but then... Hyde!!! No worries, many of us are learning as we go. Next time we will be experts I've finally caught up, thank you very much for the updates Happy New Year to everyone!!

Hi dear Satellites I'm (desperately) looking for someone who would kindly agree to add me to their GIFT request. I'd be willing to negotiate the terms if we win. I already have a japanese SIM, but no acct in Lawson.

Yes! Now I can see both, thanks!

I could see those two, it's an earlier one, this one:

I can't see it either...

Almost, the most named athlete on twitter

JNats 2021 was the first live competition I watched. Until then I had only watched videos of his programs (with just one attempt to watch NC I had enough and decided I would only watch Yuzu) I will never forget the effect Rondo had on me. I still think I didn't breathe in the whole program.

If I remember correctly, they remove that tweet and said something like it was a mistake. He may have opened the bottle Shae gave him

I wonder how much the rules and scoring system were actually limiting Yuzu's skating. I also believe that the energy that used to go into "fighting" the ISU can now be put into his skating, now he can be 100% focused on what he really wants to do, in his ideal figure skating.

Maybe we could make a bet on what will be the next ranking that Yuzu will win

New item added to GIFT merchandising [NEWS]

This year I bought a wall calendar with more space in the days to be able to write down Yuzu's appearances and broadcasts

Congratulations to all those who have won the lottery! It is so exciting to see so many satellites with a ticket for GIFT. We will look forward to your reports @Hydroblade I'm sorry to hear the news about your ankle. Good for the successful surgery and, as some have already said, now it is time to be patient and follow the instructions of the physiotherapist. I wish a speedy recovery
