  1. Yuzuru's words during the MC for Miyagi Days 1 and 2 -> See tabs for part 1 (say 1) and part 2 (day 2) English Subbed by Jay, yuuzuuruu39 (Twitter). Posted with permission and deep thanks. During the MC, Yuzu mixes formal and informal language, which is very cute. The yellow subs are Yuzu speaking informally.

  2. Having my emo moments all day long. It's very heartwarming seeing how much he has accomplish and how much he wants to accomplish, no matter the stage he is in. What really makes me proud and makes me feel inspired, is reading his statements, he works harder than anyone, unwavering in his goals, with enormous gratitude toward those who have been and are by his side.
  3. Please, watch the video, comment, and help share if possible

  5. "Dream Collaboration FaOI in Aichi" Special Program with Behind the Scenes and Interview with Yuzu Broadcast by Nagoya TV (local channel) on 2024/06/29. HD Video but Danny Boy is missing the last seconds .
  6. Yuzu cuts of Fantasy on Ice in Makuhari day 3 performance (2024/05/26) broadcast on 2024/06/08, BS Asahi. English subs added to the post-show interview with Yuzuru. The subs area mix of translation sources (Sarah_Soma, LGeorgin mainly, I think), I tried to match them the best I could to the speech.
  7. Potato quality but this is a compilation of the only clips that were shared on twitter of the segment on FaOI in Aichi broadcast in a program of Nagoya TV on June 27, 2024.
  8. I lost track of what Nagoya TV program showed some footage in the context of the upcoming FaOI Aichi Special Program, but we got some footage of Yuzu's "photo session" 😆
  9. Even Japanese fans were surprised by the information contained in the article. I wonder where the person who wrote it got the idea that there were shots in the city. Yaguchi-san must have been very confused by people asking about it 😅
  10. It's available for pre-order with international shipping on Amazon Japan, Asmart and Tower Records
  11. Captain Yuzuru Hanyu's Journey Special Interview- ANA Filmed: July 27, 2023. Archived delivered: September 27, 2023 to December 17, 2023. TABS: part 1 has the English Subbed version, part 2 the one without subs Translated and subbed by @ yuuzuuruusubs (Jay, twitter). Posted with permission. Also, a million thanks to the kind jfanyu who provided translations from "44:00". TRANSLATION NOTES (T/N): 1. Because 'subjects and pronouns' are often omitted in Japanese grammar, there are parts where it isn't clear whether Yuzu is referring to people in general or just himself. In such cases, 'we' and 'you' have been used 2. 遠征/ ensei/ expedition/ - (figure skating context) traveling to different cities or countries to participate in competitions and events 3. 本番/honban/ actual performance - the actual performance or event as opposed to rehearsals or practice runs 4. 「希望と不安が引力で集まった形」”kibou to fuan ga inryoku de atsumatta katachi” is a metaphor Yuzu created himself, so the translated version & explanation may not be 100% accurate. Vocabulary: 希望/kibou/hope 不安/fuan/anxiety 引力/inryoku/gravity,gravitational pull で/de/through 集まった/atsumatta/gathered,came together, brought together etc. 形/katachi/form,shape T/N from the anonymous FANYU 5. “Don’t forget how you started out”「初心忘るべからず」 I’m sure people have translated this in different ways since Yuzu often mentions this proverb 初心忘るべからず (Shoshin wasuru bekarazu). Literal Translation: Should not forget our original intention. Meaning: We should never forget the beginner’s spirit of when we first started learning or doing something. Don’t be arrogant or underestimate things, even if you’ve mastered it. Equivalent English Proverb: Don’t forget where you came from. / Don’t let success get to your head. Source:https://japanesepod101.com/blog/2021/06/10/best-japanese-proverbs/ Also translated as: “Do not forget the beginner’s spirit” means that one should always maintain the same humility and serious approach of a beginner, even having become more experienced. It is based on a phrase by Zeami, one of the pioneers of the nō drama. Source: https://nippon.com/en/japan-topics/b05612/ 6. He may be talking about people in general, and not just himself here, but it’s not clear

He passionately discussed his personal use and experience with the "Kenko-yoku Shower" that he regularly uses. He suggested matching the limited edition color of the "RAKUWA Necklace Wings Gold," which he wears during his performances, to his ice show costumes. Additionally, he provided active feedback as an advisor, discussing new product ideas related to the five-finger socks he has used since his competitive days, while checking the texture of the materials. Interview & Text by Editorial Division "Kenko-yoku Shower" Greatly Contributing to Thorough Health Management The product meeting was held in Sendai City. As this was the first meeting since Yuzuru Hanyu turned professional, the staff greeted him with a sense of excitement. Hanyu entered the room calmly, as usual, and greeted President Yoshihiro Hirata and the staff present with, "Thank you for creating this opportunity today." He seemed eager to explore Phiten's products after a long time, and soon started exchanging opinions as he picked up the new items.

Costume designer Makoto Hara has a close relationship(2) with Yuzuru Hanyu. Mr. Hara has a background as a professional guitarist and has a deep knowledge of music and games. A very personal look at "RE PRAY (1) 考察 (kōsatsu): consideration; inquiry; enquiry; investigation; study (2) 親交/shinkō friendship or close relationship, different to 友達/ tomodashi, which is a more general term for friendship. Here, shinkō is used in a more formal and professional context, it underscores a significant and meaningful connection, likely highlighting respect and a long-term association. — What did you think of "RE_PRAY" when you saw it? Hara: First of all, I thought it matured as entertainment, and the level of perfection was extremely high. I also thought it was very interesting that the content was a metaphorical representation of video games. There are many different types of games, but this show focuses on the world of role-playing games, especially J-RPGs. I could see a great link between Mr. Hanyu's own childhood, his active career, and the process of RPGs up to the present day. In particular, the song "MEGALOVANIA" that Mr. Hanyu played in the show is from the game "Undertale," and I felt that this song was one of the hooks in the show. “Undertale" is a game created almost single-handedly by charismatic game creator Toby Fox, and although it was released in 2015, it was influenced by Japanese RPGs of the 90s and 2000s, with a graphic style that looks very old-fashioned. It's a story-driven game that breaks the rules of traditional RPGs, and people who played it at the time were shocked.

He was involved in the performance and arrangement of the music used in “RE_PRAY”. From the perspective of a musician active in a wide range of fields, we asked him to talk about Mr. Hanyu’s greatness as an expressive artist. Interview and text by Tatsuya Murao –Mr. Kiyozuka participated in this Ice Story ``RE'' PRAY'' by playing the piano and arranging music. I hear that you have three new songs recorded, but what was the background behind the request? Kiyozuka: The story behind this was that Mr. Hanyu told me, “I'd like to do a show like this.” When I received the call, Mr. Hanyu already had a blueprint in mind, or rather, he had a vision for what he wanted to do, and he made a very specific offer to create something with this arrangement. I accepted it and proceeded.

Through "GIFT" and "RE_PRAY", she has created ice shows that completely overturn the conventional wisdom of figure skating. What does Yuzuru Hanyu look like to MIKIKO? We asked her about the behind-the-scenes production and a number of precious anecdotes. Interview and text by Tatsuya Murao (this magazine) –The first time you worked with Hanyu was in his first ice show after turning professional, "Prologue." I heard that you were in charge of directing "Haru yo, koi" and "A Dream That Will End Someday." MIKIKO: That's right. I was mainly in charge of directing the images projected onto the ice.

This time, she choreographed the first part of the collaboration number "Carmina Burana" between Mr. Hanyu and Mao Daichi. She talked a lot about the behind-the-scenes stories behind the new choreography that has become a hot topic, as well as Mr. Hanyu's activities as he challenges new frontiers as a professional skater. —First of all, please tell us your current feelings about “Notte Stellata,” which you just finished the other day. S-L: This was my second time participating in this show after last year. So I was happy to be invited back. And simply, I was happy to see him again. Yuzu kept the same format of the show as last year, and the skaters were the same as last time, with the addition of Javier Fernandez. It was great to see them again. I also enjoyed the time I spent with everyone. Since there were not many performers, the locker room for the women skaters was very intimate, and there was always great conversation and a positive vibe.

Beyond the boundaries of competition, in the world of unconstrained expression,he has not only used his outstanding skating skills as an athlete, but has also evolved to create new performances as an artist. Why did Hanyu perform his first performance as a professional, "Prologue," alone? How did he pursue the possibilities he saw from there? In addition, he will talk about the struggles and accomplishments he faced while drawing his ice story with his solo performance at Tokyo Dome, "GIFT," his first national tour, "RE_PRAY," and his thoughts for his fans. Hanyu, who shines as a "solitary" presence, spoke in detail about the feelings he has had throughout his professional journey, based on his experiences as an athlete. Interview and text by Mitsuru Tanaka (Associate Professor at Shobi University/Sports Writer) March 11th. As I entered a hotel room in Sendai City, Hanyu welcomed me with a gentle expression. He had just finished "Hanyu Yuzuru Notte Stellata 2024," an ice show in the disaster-stricken area that he hosted from the 8th to the 10th. He should have been exhausted, but he showed no signs of it. When he saw the tote bag I was carrying, he said, "That's a (novelty) from the All Japan Junior High School Skating Championships, isn't it? It brings back memories..." to lighten the mood. He spent an hour with me, including the time for filming.
