No literally: "The high-profile rivalry with Hanyu, who in Pyeongchang became the first men’s skater to successfully defend an Olympic gold medal in 66 years, was primed to explode at the Beijing Games but has since been reduced to one-way traffic" 
Idk if I'm interpreting this the wrong way but someone needs to get their facts checked

Welcome to the Planet,  and yes. 

Forum UI slightly changed? Now I see a small rocket on everyone's profile photo  

YES SIR!!!

 

Sportschau LMEY has just reached the milestone of 2.5 Mio views!!! 

 

 

Footnote: It's Yuzu's 10th performance video with +2.5 M views on YouTube now (plus the deleted ones, which I did not count here).

Congrats to that great feat 

I didn't notice he was saying よいしょ (Yoisho) 

 

 

It's so difficult to explain about this phrase in English.

My dictionaries say;

 

https://ejje.weblio.jp/content/よいしょ

https://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=よいしょ

 

(expression of effort or strain) huff!; yo-heave-ho!; heigh-ho, or alley-oop

Or, upsy-daisy

 

But, I don't think this explains correctly

WHY DOES THE SUIT FIT SO POORLY?! And why is the color so.....out there? LOL

 

This looks like he just grabbed some suit from his grandpa's closet and threw it on!

 

 

Daniel is all of us. So relatable.

I'm sorry but it would be hilarious if the piano piece was the other like 8 minutes of Ballade No. 1 LMAO 

 

 

Yuzu doing a fashionable avantgarde Chopin remix called "Chopin Resurrected".

No matter what music Yuzu chose for his SP, I'm confident his program will be another masterpiece.

Really - back away from the Guardian sports coverage - it is very bad for your health - I was foaming at the mouth after their 2018 Olympic coverage which read like it was dictated by Scott Hamilton.  

Ghislain completed his 10 km walk today in support of “Lace up for Liz” and then walked another 2 km when the mother of one of his skaters at the TCC offered to double her donation if he did so. Nice Under Armour hat and shiny car Ghislain!

 

Well done Ghislain!

By the way, after Nam's interview, I'm concerned to hear about the increasing number of skaters who went through / go through a really bad time for their mental health. It's good to hear they got help. Covid and the upcoming Olympics are taking their toll. (If my english wording isn't appropriate, it is unintentionally, please look over it.)

 

Yuzu please, stay confident, healthy and happy in your lonely work cave! We are looking forward to seeing you, whatever you decide to skate.

 

 

Well I think in Nam's case, he was hardly able to train at all last year because of our lockdowns and that probably made his mental health a lot worse.

Me too. I think it's supposed too indicate the rank level? Which, mine is StSq4...yes, please, one level 4 StSq in every one of Yuzu's skates from now on, please, and properly scored, too. 

This is not new but it came up on my YouTube suggestions and I think it’s really nice!  Makes me really want to buy it (I was holding back!). Maybe I will buy a bunch of Yuzu books together when this season’s new ones are released next year…cheaper shipping this way…

 

Tokyo Metro Stations!
