You never know...He would definitely be more subtle, but I don't doubt that he is capable of sticking it just right

His skating is just so ethereal...even when he's just doing stroking exercises 

The way he manhandles Brian 🤣

Brian Orser seems to have noticed it too. ;-)

Don't know if this has bee posted or not. It's just too cute.

 

Poor Crazy-chan by himself in the corner.

Yuzuru Hanyu, one (1) minute after retirement: HE'S WAVING HIS ARMS AROUND TO FOOL YOU INTO THINKING HIS FEET ARE DOING SOMETHING. BUT IS THERE A PROGRAM THERE? NO. WHY ARE THESE LITTLE GIRLS SKATING TO PROSTITUTE SONGS? SOMEBODY CALL THE POLICE, I'D LIKE TO REPORT SOME MISSING GOE. THIS IS JUST A BUNCH OF TRANSITIONS IN SEARCH OF A POINT. YOU'RE SKATING TO LES MISERABLES WHY DON'T YOU LOOK LE MISERABLE? THAT SPIN TRAVELLED SO FAR I HOPE THEY FLEW ANA. THE POINT OF A JUMP IS TO DO IT IN THE AIR, OTHERWISE IT'S A SPIN. HEY USFSA ARE YOU THE PIXAR MOVIE 'UP' BECAUSE YOU SURE ARE FOND OF INFLATING THINGS

Uhhhh Brian's hand....is a bit low there.  Brian probably doesn't realize it, seeing as he's in shoes and Yuzu gains a couple of inches from the skates. Must do further analysis, because scienece. 

This is out of nowhere, but! I was listening to the interview with Brian Boitano on the Olympic Channel Podcast speaking about Yuzu and he really is rubbing me the wrong way!

I could just watch this forever. ❤️ 

Happy second anniversary, folks! 

 

Celebration of the second OGM anniversary, from the calligrapher fanyu koho.  This time, with the term 躍進 = YakuShin = Breakthrough (literally "dancing forward").

 

Thanking Hanyu-senshu for giving courage and sharing moving moments, and wishing from the bottom of his/her heart for Hanyu-senshu to be true to Hanyu-senshu and to continue making breakthroughs (yakushin).

 

 

 

Happy anniversary Yuzuru!  The day a legend became the Legend of the 21st Century in figure skating....

No. I tried Google Translate and it says the same thing -  'assess the physical damage' but doesn't indicate to what he's referring. Based on context, I'd take it as more of a general, 'see how I feel', kind of comment, not anything serious.

Yuzu used word 'ダメージ (damage)' but he did not say '怪我' (injury). In this context, he meant 'fatigue' from competition/travelling/etc. Just think in combat type of games, when you get hit, it shows -1000 points or something.   Your HP (health point) gets reduced (receive damage) but HP will recover after you have a rest.  So there's nothing to worry about. 

Thank you all for your inputs, I feel more at ease now.

I was getting a bit worried but the tone sounded nonchalant so I just wanted to make sure. I'm so sensitive when these words are uttered around/about Yuzu

Word of advice - take that particular translator's work with a grain of salt.
