oh my god, Team Japan c. 2010 was a Wild experience, as you would expect with a combination of Extra AF personalities thanks, now I'll never look at Yamato the same way in the K&C again, I wonder if his students ever pull this stuff out to embarrass him (then again, he'd probably just own it lolol). 

 

Alas, even Yuzu isn't that extra and Shoma is definitely not leading any charges in Wild Team Japan Shenanigans. We'll have to see if Yuzu gets Wilder with age ; __ ; 

 

Well... last quad (2010 to 2014) Yuzu had dorky sempais like Nobu, Taka, and Dai. Even Tatsuki as well... as 'serious' as he was they were really funny and kept on shading each other /LOL/. After they all retired /sob/ he really doesn't have anyone to play with anymore. You can kinda get a glimpse sometimes at galas like at 2015 gpf (machida air guitar and slide?) but nobody else there seem to get it/him. Shoma prolly recognised what he was doing but you know he's too embarrassed to be extra. That's why I love it when Misha is in the same competition as him... and then you get Keiji and Ryuju at NHK'16 but they just basically let him do what he wants /LOL/.

Exactly -- Dai and Nobu seemed to be huge personalities, it must have just been insanity all the time (with Yuzu and Tatsuki as the proverbial 'straight men' but also secretly Extra -- I refuse to look at Tatsuki's winged eyeliner and believe he's anything less than dramatic AF). 

 

You are so right about him wanting to be Extra and funny in galas but not having a lot of people who get it (bless his soul though, the boy doesn't care and air guitars anyway). Along with all the reasons I'll be sobbing at Misha retiring and Javi (potentially??) retiring this year, one of the more minor but equally devastating reasons is because Yuzu would be losing the two rare guys who not only humoured him but played along?? LIKE WHO IS GOING TO DO STUPID QUAD BATTLES W/ YUZU ONCE JAVI'S GONE WTF ;; it'll literally be Yuzu and Zhenya??? The younger gen (+ Keiji and Ryuju lol) are all too sensible/shy/cool 4 dis dammit! 

 

(this is why I kind of want Yuzu to become best friends with Boyang because Team China are actually extra and weird and hilarious AF and Yuzu would love them so much without a language barrier. That or Yuzu will wear down Shoma's defences eventually -- he's slowly succeeding but would be faster with some backup)

Tatsuki's dramatic but it's more words than actions (except when he's skating) with him and Yuzu... they kept shading each other during media interviews /LOL/. I'm not holding out hope for Shoma actually, I don't think it's in his nature but I'm glad that he indulges Yuzu.

 

I'm gonna be emo here a moment but Yuzu became a senior so early that his 'contemporaries' retired during his career (Dai, Taka, Nobu, Tatsuki). Most of the people he competed with as a junior retired as well (Gachinski, Nan Song, Nakamura) or are older than him (Rippon, Brezina, D10). Everyone from team Japan that he competed together with at Sochi has retired except for Chris Reed. So when he talked about being lonely I think this was part of it.

 

I do think he'd fit in well with Team China actually. He gets along well with Hannie, seems to adore Boyang, and he got himself a personal lifter with XinYu.

So even he wore training gear to perform before? Well, at least it was extra training clothes. But that sweatshirt looks like one of my grandmother's.

Hahaha.. this one is when he performed Change at the 2009 Medalist on Ice (no video that I can find). I think his costume for Change has always been some sort of weird graphic tee (although I did like the 2014 version).

I hope the 2014 version is in the cute falls thread already.  He was such a happy and dorky champion of the woooorld! I wouldn't mind seeing him perform this again, either. It also makes me curious about how Riverdance might suit him, especially considering that Shae-Lynn's is the best ever skated.

Well the Patterns are those you would find on Kimono or screens so i think they're appropriate (2014 does look best )

I love the 2014 t shirt

I hope I can add this video to your encyclopedia, if you don't already have it. I think this is the 2009 version that you are talking about right?
