Here's Day 2 :3 Mostly translations of fan reports as there seems to be less official media. Also, this seems to be the version that would be broadcast.

FaOI MAKUHARI-at-a-glance
Day 1 (see top post)
Day 2 (According to fan report, today is what will be broadcast for Makuhari) Opening Grp Number: EXILE "Choo Choo Train" (Video snippet from arizakarian@ig of opening 4T w/ high kick *-* and some moves) Program: Chopin Ballade 1 (2Lo // beautiful 3A and 4T3T) Encore: Let's Go Crazy StSq Finale: SE-1Lo, 4Lo (correction: rotated, fell), waved his hands + did a little bit of side lunge on return --------------------------------------- Photos from official outlets: yomiuri (insta): Opening number in action, Finale in action Fan report highlights: "I was able to attend the closed practice session today thanks to my friend who won tickets ✨ Other attendees are also writing reports so I'll report a little bit on what I remember too 💦  ① When I entered the hall, Hanyu-san was sitting in the arena seats right near the stage, talking to someone. Afterwards, he was jumping up and down, and moving as if to confirm the axis of his jumps, etc, around the skaters' entrance. (x) ② After that he changed into skating boots and went onto the ice. He greeted us as he passed by 😌 He had considerable trouble landing the 4Lo in practice. It seems to be hard to adjust the jump trajectory to this small rink. Run-through for Chopin was 2Lo // 3A 4T3T (x) ③ They played the music from the beginning to 4Lo, so he was able to try again (finally succeeded) In the run through for Let's Go Crazy too, he struggled with adjusting the trajectories 💦 Here too he also got to redo the run through. After that he pointed around 👈👆👉👇 in confirmation like a demon. (x) ④ By the way, Pooh did not participate today. Everyone shared a tissue box. He mentioned things like "Lighting is done like the actual performance." "It's too dazzling [for my eyes]" "I can't see" while drinking water. He was scrubbing his face hard and covering and wiping his abs with an FaOI towel... the towels will inevitably be sold out tomorrow as well, probably... (x) ⑤ He attempted the 4Lz about 5 times (?) at the end of practice. He failed three times, and struggled but managed to stick the landing the fourth time. The fifth time, however, he landed a beautiful, perfect 4Lz! There was a camera focused only on Hanyu-san at the north side, so the Yuzu-Cam surely caught that... I'm so thankful I got to see a perfect 4Lz..." (x) (skipping thanks to P&G, etc) (cr. MegChocoholic@twi)   (About rehearsal as well) "It just ended! I was happy just to be able to watch it, but I got a surprise from P&G! At the end of the practice, we were handed carnations from the performers and got to take a group photo together! (((; ゚ Д ゚))))))) ... I am sorry 💦 I was beside Hanyu-san by chance, and I received 🌷 from him. I got to shake hands with everyone ✨ 'I'm sorry I am so sweaty and I must smell of sweat~' 'The T-shirt is new so maybe the smell of the T-shirt?' Everyone around me went "It's okay! It's okay!" 😅 ... no one smelled bad or anything, actually 😅 When the photographer said 'Cheese!' during the group photo session, Hanyu piped up 'Tanaka-saaaan, say something funny–!' After that, he made the 👐 pose from LGC 😽  (cr. nego401@twi, 2, 3, 4)   Hanyu's message: YH: "Eh, it's a personal matter, but I really wanted to see Plushenko-san's Sex Bomb (trans. probably he meant the actual performance because he watched the run through earlier). It's a pity I couldn't see it... how was it everyone?" Audience: "Oooooo \o/" YH: "That's good. I'll watch it on TV!" (cr. chimayu0909@twi, maki__meki@twi) "When I heard Hanyu-san's closing words into the microphone, 'The past year––the whole year or rather those two months––was really hard' caused a lump to rise in my throat. Welcome back!" (cr. tarock2525@twi) YH: "I think there are people who will be returning home by train after this, and there will be those who are relaxed, but everyone's quite excited so please take care on your way home" (cr. annegreengd@twi) "At the last greeting, 'So! At 321. It's fine if you don't want to say too.' Hanyu-san, that's not the case... I want to say it together but I'm wavering because I also want to hear Hanyu-san's natural voice (> _ <) What should I do? Today as well, I was only able to hear only up until the beginning 'ariga-' before [everyone's voices] blended in" (cr. PRainbowsky@twi)
Day 3

Thank you so much for these summaries!

 

They should just auction off that towel Yuzuru was using. Don't even bother washing it 

 

Thanks! That really makes me understand the difficulties of a small rink. Now I won't be worried if he pops the quad loop.

Thank you @gladi for the amazing reports. I am not worried about the condition of the jumps yet. It's ice show after all.

Gladi, thank you so much for finding all these reports and compiling them! This is so useful for keeping track of what happened! And all these reports make us who can't go feel like we are sort of there too!

Not worried here, either. I am keeping an eye out for layout variations, though...

Yep. 5 attempts. 3 falls, 1 almost good, 1 perfect 

 

And no pops? My heart be still.

No problem, girls ^.^ Thanks for the encouragement! I pick out the ones I thought were informative, but if there are other ones you found interesting / you weren't quite sure what was being talked about, feel free to ping as well. There are bound to be some I missed. I can take a look and add if they are appropriate/informative :)

Can we notice how extra he is after that failed knee slide? Like how he lies on the ice in an apologetic way 

He failed a knee slide? LMAO

 

Also, I like the 4Lz reports 

 

Thanks @gladi for the reports!

 

OTOH, is anyone else worried about 4T-3T in the second half and it affecting his lisfranc injury? I know he'll be careful now, but I thought that was why he was doing the 4S-3T now  Or was he only doing 4S-3T last season to save his knee for Olympic season? I guess after this he can go back to the inconsistent 4S-3T no problem. However if he's replacing solitary 4T with 4Lz in the FS then...well, that would be about the same number of toes :D

Thank you @gladi for the reports. I've been waiting for it the whole day

 Ahahaha I feel bad for the lazy naps I took before tackling the translations then ^_^||| Glad you enjoy reading :)

Thanks @gladifor wonderful report!

 

I thought I wanted to share some reports on Japanese site.  About performances, gladi did enough.  Thus I show the episode of his humor here.

 

In the shows, yuzu does free talk every time.  In the first day (and the second day), he slowly started, “This is my personal thing, …” (in Japanese 私事ですが).

In Japan, this phrase is used when you try to say a very personal thing, especially, an announce to be engaged to be married. 

Yuzu expected the big surprise (or shock?) of the audience to hear this phrase and used it on purpose ( Of course, he continued the matter which was not relevant to marrige.).  The  first day, most of the audience didnt understand the meaning of his use, but the second day they did it.  Actually, some of their hearts were almost to stop to hear it (the other day, actually, one Japanese top athlete (swimmer) at the same age of yuzu announced his engagement.).  Of course, it was his joke and he was just tried to amuse himself to see the audience though, the response by our members made me laugh. 

 

Anyway, he seems to be totally fit mentally.  It makes me delighted most.  He is preparing for Olympics in good condition!
