General Yuzuru Chat

Though I want to see a clean Seimei 3, I think next season would be important for him to test out 2 new programmes, in case he somehow ends up going to the Beijing Olymipics . Unless he has determined not to go, or wouldn't mind using Seimei and Chopin in 2022.

Another good memory is me losing my entire mind when I first saw Origin 2 costume.

IT'S JUST SO BEAUTIFUL!! Finally a purple costume! And flowers! And roses! And shooting stars! And butterflies flying during sit spin!

He'll take 2 new programs this ss and go back to Chopin-SEIMEI for Olympics  kkkkkk

 

Somehow I feel Beijing is closer and closer and my gut feeling tells me Yuzu will go, unless he'll land 4A with a clean program next ss (he can land 4A next ss but I feel he's not satisfied if he can't skate a clean program with it). If he still skates then (which is only after next ss), he'll go to his 3rd Olympics. True fossil longevity

Okay, the end of the off top! What was your favourite Yuzuru moment this season?

Tough choice. Ok... here we go.

 

Skating-wise: seeing this live at SCI

 

Non-skating, Yuzu loosing it when the announcer kept interrupting him at nhk gala.

 

[Paskud]

Another good memory: audience ovation and me tearing up during biellmann spin at GPF gala. 

And total madness "MAYBE IT'S A TYPO?!" before 4cc.

Btw did Yuzu break record of most recycled program this ss with Chopin? I don't think anyone recycled a program for 4 seasons so far. He'll break his own record next ss w Chopin 5.0 lol

I see many skaters who repeat the same program every season (which is 80% none-program) and only change the background music  

So they could literally change "the program" every time they skate.

Also, I see way more evolution and development in Yuzu's recycled programs, not even mentioning pleasure or excitment by watching them again and again.

Being present at practice in Torino, realizing he was setting up for Nessie, then actually seeing the monster surface. Even though he fell, it felt like watching history. 

This for me too - I was watching it on my iPad and got the strongest feeling that he was going to try it.  The WTF skating doodle summed it up - it was like a storm over the horizon and then bam - he was going for it......

When he spotted my crappy little 'Canada loves Yuzu' poster at the ACI medal ceremony and cracked up laughing. The jury's still out as to whether he thought it was genuinely funny or not, or whether he was simply reacting to the poster beside mine ( which had Tokyo Ghoul and YowaPedal on it), but I feel like I made him laugh with joy, and I was walking on Air the rest of the day. 

 

Second most favorite moment: during the skaters' final lap at the SCI Gala, I called out 'Arigato Yuzuru' to him, and he turned and made the heart shape with his hands in my general direction. There was no way he could see who it was that had called out to him, but he wanted whoever it was to know they were heard. 

 

This beautiful man....

Following @Veveco's lead,

favorite non-skating moment: Yuzuru dragging Jun and Jason into a TCC brothers photo at 4CC

favorite skating moment: up close view of the spread eagle in Hope & Legacy

favorite fanyu moment: at my first live competition, sitting next to a total stranger and instantly bonding over Yuzu

[sweetwater]

My favorite Yuzu moments in 2019-2020 season:
When Yuzu broke Skate Canada Jinx

Spoiler

When Yuzu broke the second GP Jinx

Nice to see you again in a competition, 4Lz!

...and 4A!

When we saw slightly different Ballade No.1 costume

Blight young leaf SEIMEI

Happy SEIMEI after breaking 4CC jinx as well

 

ETA: Not a Yuzu moment but I was also truly happy to be able to see @Kizuna again at NHK 2019 after NHK 2017 and see healthy, happy Yuzu at the end of it!

[Paskud]

Oh, right! We had two extra new costumes to wait for at 4cc! Generous king!

[monchan]

Many fav moments I can't count. What stands out most might be his WR SP at 4CC. It's not the first time he skated Chopin clean, but the first time in 2 seasons he's satisfied with his skate. It's like he finally found THE way and I'm so glad.

[Paskud]

AND SUPER SLAM AT 4CC YEAH

[shanshani]

hm, I have to second freaking out at Origin 2.0. I have literally never lost it that way in my life

His audience interaction skills are second to none, seriously.
