In interviews (such as the one he just gave in Kanazawa), he always sounds like it's a combination of being terribly busy and too famous to go out safely, that holds him back. Anyway, the reason I mentioned baseball is because I know he's a fan. Although he missed his chance to see Ohtani play in Toronto, those games were right before the start of FAOI so no dice. 

If he did go, the Japanese reporters would spot him immediately.

How would Japanese reporters find him in a sea of 30, 000 + baseball fans in Toronto? Throw some Blue Jay fan gear or face paint on him and nobody could tell. Just saying it's possible, not that he should.

Not the reporters but the fans.

I mean, fans can spot him in the background of blurry pictures by looking at the shape of half an arm (extreme example but i bet it could happen), some paint sadly isn't going to fool anyone...

Most fans respect his privacy but with one person that takes a picture of him and posts it online, it's enough for it to spread

i have an old school cell phone that can't even take pictures... i forget that everyone  else takes pictures of absolutely everything they see and think people are interested.... but i still think he could get away with it....

Mmmm - but if he's the type I know, even a fan of a sport, who is seriously depressed when they lose,  quite often doesn't use his season ticket because something else has caught their attention - happy enough to watch on tv ( luckily the tickets in question have a resale value)

crossposting from GS, but basically these are all examples of songs that work with different Yuzu performances. I like to do this all the time with my friend and it's honestly been a great way for me to learn more about the power of music choice and performance. It's CRAZY how well these work out!! I wanted to post this here too so I could see other people's ideas for what songs/performances fit Yuzu

 

Some things I've learned: Yuzu + Pop/Disco/female power ballad = masterpiece

 

HD. Yuzuru HANYU 羽生結弦 EX - 2011 Grand Prix Final (start @ 0:09) + KC & The Sunshine Band- Boogie Shoes

Yuzu FAOI 2018 (start @0:05) + The Realness (feat. Eric Kupper)  <---------- this one is my favorite so far

HD. Yuzuru HANYU Let's go crazy (start @ 0:07) + Got To Be Real  <---------- the 3A and zusa are on POINT, actually nuts pls watch

anyway this is a ton of fun and i learned that Yuzuru Hanyu is absolutely an alien from outer space who can unconsciously sync up with any music. Seriously guys it's absolutely bonkers how well his movements synced up to these songs that were 100% chosen at random - I'm actually terrified

 

(also i usually will mute the video w yuzu then start the music on a different tab (also I consider the experiment over when either the song finishes or yuzu finishes, whichever comes first))

 

edit: for those having trouble dealing with multiple tabs and everything here's exactly what i do so that the music starts at just the right time.

1.) open yuzu vid and go to the start time listed

2.) pause and mute vid

3.) open music on another tab ---> usually the music will be muted since you just muted the yuzu vid

4.) refresh tab <-------make sure the music isn't muted

5.) refresh one more time

6.) after clicking refresh QUICKLY go back to the yuzu vid and quickly unpause

Yep - Someone would notice his power stone bracelet or a mole on his ear and the gig  would be up.

I had to try Notte Stellata to the original Saint-Saens (because I love it better) first, and simply sat here melting (the length was wrong of course, but still....) then because I've wanted to see Yuzu do a Japanese horror soundtrack pretty much from my second day of fandoming, tried the piece Ideal from Kenji Kawai's Dark Water

But even more, I want to see Yuzu skate to James Newton Howard... this
