Say what you will about Anna's skills and scores, she is such a nice, level-headed kid (much more than those adults who proclaim to be level-headed)  

 

The fact that she gets why Yuzuru devotes his everything to the 4A when accomplished skaters and coaches like Yagudin and Raf can't just amuses me. 

I think, Yags and Raf also secretly understand Yuzu but they belittle him because they are upset with Yuzu not playing their game. They are upset that he didn’t compete with Nathan but rather compete with himself/human’s limitation. Tbh, Yuzu going for 4A just makes Nathan’s winning story dull. It implicitly means that Nathan wasn’t considered worthy enough to spark motivations for competing and improving.  So at the end Nathan didn’t win over Yuzu in Beijing because Yuzu was there for a different goal. This is why they are mad

 

 

oh my.... Yuzu

Lol “but that’s not fun”. He also should’ve pointed out he’d won everything there is, the OGM twice included, that would’ve shut everybody up.

He should have done that so we don't have to hear idiotic takes from idiotic, disgruntled, self-titled old men.

He is just so sweet and humble.

 

This and when he thanked the interpreters/translators - he really never forgets all the hard work everyone gives... He never forgets that it is a group effort... He never forgets to appreciate everyone's hard work, not just the people that are apparent. Everyone has worth and he never fails to show his gratitude and acknowledge that

The South China Morning Post, Lifestyle/Fashion & Beauty section had the following article:

Just some thoughts I had recently. Yuzuru is such an inspiration and I love him to death. He has gave me that push I need in order to really put more into my hobbies, which will overall make me happier. His work ethic is outstanding and definitely something I want to apply to myself! I really have to thank him for making me be able to think about what I do in a different and better light. Yuzuru is the best T_T
