Practice Yuzu

Yes, the other trees were blocking the light to the cherry and taking nutrients. To quote Byron "Not man the less but nature more" Man and nature must coexist in harmony. Art mirrors life and all of those sagacious sayings. Yuzu's life mirrored in the tree planted in his honour. Looking forward to the tree and the carpet of blooms in the spring. The project is very aptly called 'Ice Garden'

Throwback to young Yuzu

This is a tremendous concept. the tree will resemble Yuzu skating HYK. Just as Yuzu has emerged from some dark times, the Yoko cherry tree that was planted in his honour, was moved to a more open spot. The tree had not thrived where it had been originally planted, due to competition for nutrients and light form some other trees. The park caretakers had been concerned about the potential disruption to the tree if it was moved. However, following the successful translocation, the tree bloomed and is now thriving, away from the small copse. The symbolism is not lost on me. Bloom and grow Sakura tree. The tree variety itself, has an interesting and very poignant story, which was related several years ago, when it chosen as a Yuzu tribute for the park

The order date is Sept 15-23. I was not able to discover if overseas shipping is possible, only one pen per order is permitted

These are adorable.

Little series of costume arts

Pics to show the painting process of these gorgeous TenChi themed pens. The same manufacturer presented Yuzu with a plate, when he received the People's Honour Award

Neko Zuzu and Pooh Celebrating 1 month of Yuzutube

This version of tea for two is vert charming indeed. Imagine Yuzu dancing to this in a classic film tap dance style, he could pair up with an ice dancer and have Pooh san sit at a little tea table by the boards

The lyrics for a song as follows "Tea for two and two for tea, Me for you and you for me' It was a pun on You and Pooh, or may be even Yuzu for me. hehe

So many Yuzu treats, where to look first

Tea for two and two for tea Tea for Pooh and Pooh for me

Turandot and specifically Nessum Dorma is a favourite Warhorse. FaOI 2022 features a group number and Yuzu performs a sublime spiral as depicted, wearing this lovely 'poet' shirt.

This is old news but if you are feeling dejected, let Yuzu and 'mini Yuzu' cheer you up. ( from 24 hr TV few years ago )

The Daily Spread Eagle - September 6th 2022 New Portrait of the Ice Emperor Unveiled Artisans visited on Emperor's Royal Progress The Inhabitants of the court of Planet Hanyu have enjoyed a rather peculiar and disrupted summer. Following the Emperor's astonishing announcement on July 19th, that there were to be no further annual sojourns. The court had witnessed an eruption of Mt Irene, which had spewed molten gold and the Emperor had taken his Summer Progress alone to the Ice Caves of Sendai. The court had at first been allowed a quiet respite and had at first believed that the summer months would be quiet and a little dull. The Palace had settled into a routine of listening to the daytime work of Palace refurbishment as the worker Poohs brought the molten gold from the base of Mt Irene and the artisans fashioned a new throne, Imperial regalia and various other decor to embellish the formal receiving rooms. Artisans were in a constant state of activity, alongside the court weavers, seamstresses and costumiers. The jump ladies had descended into a slump. Deputy Prime Minister Yuzu Pooh had to constantly remind them of their duties, which they performed reluctantly in what could only be described as trance like 'ennuie'. The daily routines were disrupted with news of the Emperor's quest, the Ice Crystal broadcast of the ice ritual practices, a second broadcast of the ice rituals and then news of the Emperor's Progress. The Emperor was making an extended Progress due to the cancellation of the usual annual sojourns. The Emperor was taking the opportunity to visit many of the artisans and other valued citizens of Earth, who had shown great service to the Emperor. News came of the Emperor's visit to the maker of winged jewellery Phiten, one of the Imperial portrait artists AERA and a fine clothworker Yuima Nakazato. The Jump ladies were all a flutter with excitement at the prospect of winged necklaces, new silk clothing and a portfolio of new portraits of the Emperor. Deputy PM Pooh called for calm for the unveiling of a huge portrait of his Imperial Majesty in the newly refurbished Palace Gallery, his received a terrible fright because the jump Ladies almost trampled him in their haste to see the portrait of their most beloved Emperor. There were gasps of delight then the jump Ladies were rendered speechless. There was the portrait in a golden frame, the Emperor was depicted in all of his magnificence, adorned in a flowing garment of white silk, decorated with a design of indigo blue and sleeves with cascading ruffles in a myriad of blue shades. The Ladies were so entranced with the portrait of the Emperor that they lost track of time and gazed at the portrait all day long, which required the serving of luncheon in the gallery itself. At night fall the ladies had to be coaxed out of the gallery, with many exclamations of how much they missed the Emperor and were already wondering when there would be more news or when he would return from the Ice Caves. Deputy PM Pooh commented that he was lamenting the absence of the Emperor and the Prime Minister OM Pooh san. ( Royal Progress was often undertaken during the summer months, for clement weather when the Monarch made a tour of their Realm. They would often stay at the residences of Nobles and ranking members of the Royal Court. Whilst the Monarch undertook the Progress, the Royal Palaces were cleaned and refurbished, including the unenviable tasks such as dealing with the sanitary arrangements. Whilst it was a huge honour to host the Royal household, the cost to the host could be enormous.)

Yuzu's loyal subjects will rally to him and this will demonstrate that Yuzu transcends the sport.
