Wow it seems like white LGC is brand new to accommodate Yuzu's new found muscles. The rhinestone colors are a bit different (less gold here), the panels are wider, patterns slightly different, armholes smaller or tighter. So the whole thing is new, not just the pants lol

He could have gone with a different color but he really said, Love and Justice for Shiro-chan!!!

 

Can we assume he's gained about 8cm chest width? :eeking:

I who thought pregnancy was in the belly... 0:)

But after all, Jupiter took Dionysos not in his belly, but in his thigh after the death of his mother Semele (who couldn't stand the view of Jupiter in all his glory; fortunately 3A hime seems to get used to "new Yuzuru Hanyu"). Speaking of thighs... The pregnancy could as well be there, because they have grown so much.

he actually pat on the other guys' hands besides Yuhana and Kaori. He never touched the girls.

Oh, I just re-watched the ending (which for some reason I really like. Yuzu just gliding around the rink is like an art and also, the song from Southern All Stars is :heart: - why can't I find this on spotify?!). He did 'touch'/pat on Rika's hand. One hand that was around Kaori was placed on a guy's hand but the other hand around Yuhana was hovering above her shoulder. Then when Rika placed her hand on Yuahan's shoulder, he patted on both Rika's hand and the other guy's hand (sorry, forgot his name) which effectively kind of gave all 4 juniors a well-done pat. Obviously hand touching is no issue since who doesn't shake hand or do hi-5? 

Just want to correct my previous statement as quoted above. Also, I'm always very impressed with Yuzu's manner hands :love:

 

Too bad I'm out tomorrow and can't watch live. Looking forward to all the clips posted here tomorrow! 

so, now we have a Double Mistery about WhiteLGC - but most important: how come it took us 24h to realize the pattern on the vest was (slightly) different?:knc_tracy1: has the overload of the last few weeks ruined our detective skills, or has LGC merely blinded us all? But then, how come I didn't know the details on the pants were different in ACI compared to SC?:shame:

Yuzu cut from SOI! :cheer:

 

[NEWS]

and yay for this too!!!!!

Fanyus are surely FAST! I mean, I shouldn't even be surprised anymore, but I am still in awe!

(also, feeling lucky that life of a Yuzu fan might be hard but at least you can be sure that any available snippet of broadcasted vid will make it till me:10814716:  now, if only jpn media werent't so generally stingy at times....)

 

 

I've just rewatched the Yuzu cut and I still can't watch the opening without going:tumblr_inline_mzx8zzarLt1r8msi5:with fond second-hand embarassment (though I appreciate Yuzu's extraness was perfectly on the music beat all the time). And I've squealed again at the inside IB in the finale. I still can't quite get used to Yuzuru not being the most sparkliest of the lot.

LOL at how Yuzuru was trying to direct the others, especially int he last round of bows, when they all ackwardly stood there clapping and wondering what the heck they were doing there.... I've seen someone compare him to mama swan leading its lil ducklings.:tumblr_inline_mg16go8gBg1qdlkyg:

Well, it makes sense Yuzuru would direct them, he is one of the oldest there (aside KoKo, Mura and Keiji) and certainly the one with most experience in this kind of situation (proof: the recent WTT medal ceremony:67638860:)

Day 2 broadcast

 

 

and thank you for posting this too!

I so wanted to rewatch Rika's and Wakaba's programs, yay! (also whole opening is kinda cute)

Technically, I could rewatch on jappanettv, but since I'm still not sure japannettv and I really understand each other (since I've already uninstalled and re-installed the software 3times (because somehow I make it glitch easily LMAO I'm so bad), I prefer a safer option:68468287:

 

 

 

 

in less happy news, re: covid///

 

maybe this is why it felt like Yuzuru was kinda in a rush in his final address before the bows...

ETA: @yuzuangel or anyone else from the team, could you tell me if, when using the News tag, it's better to keep the news separated from the rest of the post? Because I usually use multiquotes a lot and, like in this post, the NEWS part is basically only one small thing amidst my loooong commentary, so if I tag, one searcing for the actual info should read through a whole wall-text post :tumblr_inline_mg16f1RxCn1qdlkyg:

In such instances, should I do a separate post with the above tweet of Yuzu's words, or do I tag this post anyway?:tumblr_inline_mw5grieCFe1qid2nw:

ETA2: thank you for the swift reply!:thanks: I've reposted the tweet

 

 

I should have not sulked about skaters yeeting away without doing anything else. Instead, I should have screamed some more at organizers.

(also, I know that the sensible thing is to cut short all not-striclty necessary performing time in such an health hazard event. Still, I mourn that this is how things are going and we all could have got so much more, so much more safely?)

I've read that SOI Hachinoe is organized by Kinoshita instead(??). Can we maybe hope for them to have at least WTT-level of measures?:smiley-angelic001:

But there are still 2 more Yokohama shows with this messy organization ahead...:14066882:

From how SOI official account replyed to people questioning them, it looks like they really did bare minimum to be "within the rules" (while also happily bending them. See the "50%capacity" while people all sitting next to each other:facepalm:)

Call me biased, but IMG feels rather hellbent on proving just how bad they can be...

That would be nice, actually! Sometimes I go in and delete the non-news stuff from the quote. But if you could separate them that would be amazing :flowers:

Am I the only one who finds the SOI rink so small (maybe even smaller than normal ice show rinks like FaOI?) that Yuzu has to slow down in LGC, such that he can still keep the choreo without running out of ice? I am a bit sad to see LGC without his usual speed :cry:, though he is still gorgeous :loveeyes:.

Or maybe he just kind of wanted to give them a signal that it was time to look up and move :xD: Seriously, it was super adorable, the way he acted like a mother duck and others just basically followed :grin:

I don't think it's just slowed down. I think he had to change his movement pattern around the ice and alter the choreo a bit to fit it onto this rink.

 

Still, though, I am not complaining. Just happy we're getting any version of LGC back at all.

 

I am still fretting mightily over the apparent lack of COVID safety though. Especially with the newer and more contagious variants of the virus out on the prowl now....

 

Yuzu & co, please stay safe!

the pandemic and the past year's drought has rusted our observational skills! Plus I think we were all so taken with the idea of Yuzu's new thigh muscles bulging in/out of the old LGC costume that we became blind to the possibility that he simply won't fit in it  anymore and needs a larger size.

 

Anyway, after close and detailed observation (with notes) of Yuzu's physique in these costumes, I think it reasonable to draw the conclusion that, apart from simply adding muscle as a result of 4A training, Yuzu's body has done what Brian refers to as 'filling out' - i.e. he's fully matured and approaching peak adult male fitness.

 

Or to put it in anime terms, Yuzu is now approaching his Super Seiyan Blue form....
