Train ride with Yuzu

[Forcefield]

The Kancho (butt poking) prank was popularized in the west by Naruto, but I think it's already a well-known prank in Japan before that anime. Knowing that young Yuzu used it on young Nam, wow, he was so mischievous lol. Makes me nostalgic and sad in a way.

Yuzuru was interviewed by "Shinken zemi", a correspondence education system using postal/parcel delivery service.

This studying style of "narrowing down what I do" stayed the same before the exams of the semester. However, my time for studying had been very very limited so I started to take measures three weeks earlier than the exams, a little earlier than everybody. I mainly worked on <teiki test yosoumondaishu> and other practice questions, and I read descriptions carefully if I couldn't understand something. Repeatedly I tried the problems I couldn't solve and decreased what I didn't understand. In this way, I was able to reach my goal "always score higher than 90"."

Even his thoughts on studying are organised!!

I thought I've seen Yuzu doing kancho sometime in the past and googled and found this.

Never thought I would google images by kancho and feel nostalgic...

Never in a million years have I thought to see Yuzu and kancho in the same sentence...well... thousand years of death.

The one I know is shichinen goroshi (seven years of death). It's an ancient technique you know

If I saw this at a train station, I would totally miss my train....

I agree! While I absolutely adore Otoñal, Parisian Walkways will always reign in my heart as my favorite SP of his. I can't not watch when I see it, so no trains for me...

As someone who is in a "I want to learn more things but can't find a good method to do it" phase, I'm particularly fascinated by Yuzu and his studies... I wish he'd talk about it even more than he does! lol

Maybe all of us fans should spend less time acting like defenders of Yuzu's privacy - and not only - and acting like we know what's best for him and preaching and more time trying to be as gracious human beings as he is. I think he might actually appreciate that more than people fiercely and aggressively defending him on the internet. Just IMO

Thank you thank you thank you thank you.

As much as i want Yuzu's privacy to stay, well, private, i think sometimes people become overly protective of him. And sometimes it feels as bad as people trying to invade his privacy, because you're still overly concerned about it.

OMG, such a mischievous teenage boy
But he could be naughty years before this "Naruto incident", don´t underestimate young Mr. Hanyu - http://hanyusan.tumblr.com/post/154633425357/when-i-started-coaching-him-he-was-in-his-second 
It makes me glad he had these carefree and playful years.. these days I feel sometimes like he is under so much pressure, he´s too exposed and standing on a pedestal of a moral and talent paragon (though rightly so) is hard and binding somehow.
At least we saw him totally happy, free and mischievous again after PC Olympics while messing around and trolling with Javi, Shoma, Ondrej and others  

Those gifs of baby Yuzu playing dodgeball...so soft with the girls, then full-on ultra-competitive against the guys...so cute!
