And for me, there are other skaters that can win over him no doubt esp shoma or nathan but that is when yuzu open the door for them. If he does that, then there's nothing to say about it. Sure i'll be sad but that is just normal in sport. Some win some loses.

How correct.  The two times Yuzu lost to Javier at Worlds were just that - he LOST them.  Javi didn't win because if one added the base value of his program plus potential PCS, Javi's program wouldn't have equaled Yuzu's if you did the same analysis to his program.  Johnny Weir said some seasons ago, when the discussion was on the potential of Yuzu being the best ever and could he be beaten, saying 'Yuzu is skating against himself, what's more difficult than that?'  I think Johnny may have been onto something, a something that we often overlook, that Yuzu's real motivation is a perfect program, one which has maximum TES and PCS.  When he sees someone else skate extremely well in a competition, I'm thinking that Yuzu is not skating against that person.  Rather, the other person's performance inspires Yuzu to go after perfection, knowing that his programs are always stacked with more details than any other skater's.  If Yuzu skates clean, he'll likely win.  If he skates better than clean, he'll definitely win.

I was pretty positive Yuzu would not retire until he at least attempted the 4A in competition so the news isn't a surprise but it's always good to have more solid confirmation. Please can he try it in Milan :snonegai:

 

One last thing before I log off for awhile until NHK Trophy to take a leaf out of Yuzu's book and deal with RL tests/work. I came across this wonderfully written post today on Tumblr that really captured something beautiful and essential about Yuzu for me, which ties into all the talk about the 4Lz and pushing his limits.

 

I kind of just want to quote the entire post (pleaase go read it!) but the key things that jumped out at me:

 

The writing style was really similar to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (can't tag your name sorry!) so I'm wondering if I stumbled upon your tumblr (or if not, you have a very good writing imposter!): https://vspirit8.tumblr.com/post/166665052682/to-all-who-are-wondering-why-hanyu-does-what-he

 

Either way, full credits to the writer for such wonderful words <3 

I read that and I was like... :goe: to everything.. 

Yuzu would never not be Olympic Champion. Like so many before him. 

 Btw good luck with RL stuff.
