Now not just Nikkan Sports, even Washington Post by Associated Press, Mainichi Japan, and Kyoto News are reporting he's expected to announce retirement. I don't know what their sources are. It will be interesting if it turns out to be something else.

Looks like reposting from the previous source.

Dear Yuzu, you have given us a lot of happiness through competing already. I'm sure that, whatever your decision may be, to continue competing or not, we will continue to get only happiness from your skating. May you be happy with the decision you have made, which I'm sure was decided through a lot of deep thinking taking into account all factors. 

 

We will always support you. Fly, Yuzu!!!

In any case it's something related to GP, perhaps taken at the last moment, just before assignments.

can't stand this situation...

All the these media outlets are not providing any additional information. Just repeating the same that the unethical Nikkan Sports published. This is looking very similar to when the Japanese Skating Federation updated Yuzu's profile on its website. All media outlets took that short statement (the same that Yuzu had last year) and made headlines with it, without any additional information or checking the sources. Just one online sports newspaper tried to get more info from the JSF, and their answer was quite vague from what I understood. Yuzu decided to hold this press conference to avoid more speculation. Even if info was leaked, it doesn't replace the depth of what he will tell us and the opportunity of Q&A where he is in command of the answers.

Some background info on Yuzu's management team

 

 

 

Yuzu can't miss when it comes to choosing people for his team. I believe he is in good hands

It hurts me when I realized that ppl around him told his plan about his future to Jmedia, thats disgusting

Just a little longer... I keep shifting from being totally calm to being nervous about it.

Hi, what a time for a first post... but I've been a silent observer for more than 8 years now. 

I just wanted to pitch in an idea, or more or less my first reaction when I read the title of the original announcement (not the ones from the news articles).

 

My first reaction was: "oh, so he's going to announce that he's married now. How nice." And then I started seeing all the other theories that go in a complete different direction and at first was very confused! 

 

But no matter what he decides to announce I will continue to support him (most probably quite silently again)

I think this is going to be the longest 1h30min in my life...

Is it getting livestreamed at all or are we all going to be on here and Twitter breaking down in slight delay as thus conference occurs?

Good morning everyone 
What a restless night....my heart beats twice as fast and I'm not really emotionally ready for the press conference.

Editing the whole post, because Lae posted possible livestreams in one post. Disclaimer: we will see if they are showing the press conference only when the time comes. All of these are working without VPN.

 

 

Once again editing with qq-stream

 

 

Thank you for posting these live links.

Not the greatest night of my life, but I am hopeful and happy that it's only a bit more than one hour.

Thanks so much! Do we know if any of these channels will have translation? Perhaps the Olympic channel?
