I wonder if the 4T is for that part of the gala where each skater does their thing/move. 4T high kick a la FaOI.

i think 4T is actually ok for him since the take off is on the left foot, its the 3A that might give him more pain? but like the others said half of that axel he jumped was probably single. also he might still be on painkillers, and probably will continue to take them until gala end

More pics from gala practice

Look at how attached Yuzu and Pooh-san are to each other!!! the IOC has committed the biggest sin ever prohibiting Pooh-san to come to the Oly rink

I think I read somewhere before that it's a yatagarasu (crow-god). But I dont know if it has a special meaning or something.

Maybe our own @Yatagarasu can tell us about it?

3A take off is from the left foot, but I think what gives him most troubles now are landings, as they always are on the right foot. 

 

I am glad to see the same genuine smile as at the pre-competition practices .

So now there is no issue with bringing Pooh? Only competition counts?

I think bc it’s in practice rink.. or maybe Yuzu just decided to not give a fak lmao

To be fair, I think Pook had been both mentioned and seen more than many Olympic athletes, throughout these Olympics, so I think it's a waste of time trying to enforce it anymore...

Maybe only broadcast stuff counts. Possibly the NBC streamed practices also didn't allow it. However, now he's not in any broadcast so.... Pooh at the boards!

 

Or maybe IOC gave up after 2000 Poohs got thrown on the ice for him. 

Pretty sure he only brought cake to practice rink before comp to either get used to it himself or get the media used to it so they didn’t get a shock during SP.

Look gorgeous as usual.

I think they just forbidden Pooh for broadcast, this is not officially broadcasted so pooh is fine.

We may see some cute Yuzu-Javi interaction and this will be our turn to cry 

Ohhhhhh will they get Yuzu and Shoma to comment on the ladies FS? my lowkey dream is to hear yuzu's thoughts on others' performances so MAKE IT HAPPEN FUJITV

 

(i'm also dying at the thought of shoma doing it bc I'm totally expecting him to be spaced out and say something like 'oh that was nice', maybe he'll surprise me)
