Just popping in with a quick intermission post from the arena for today's show:

 

YUZURU IS ABSO-BLOODY-LUTELY SUPERB TODAY.

 

There. Just had to get that off my chest. 

 

He's amazing at all times but this is next level.

 

Hope you're all watching the livestream or the broadcast and enjoying it as much as possible.

 

A note about the projection mapping for the classical music program that culminates in Ballade: it flows across the ice in such a way that it looks like Yuzu is dancing among the musical notes. Not sure if you can see that on the stream so thought I should share

Beyond superb. There truly are no words. The passion, the precision, the musicality, the physicality, the absolute transcendence ... My soul is healed.

Can anyone who was watching the livestream give a quick summary of what Yuzu said during his ending 'ment? He spoke entirely in Japanese tonight so I kind of absorbed his meaning by the vibes... i have no idea what he said actually 😅

I am also curious, he was very emotional when he started his speech, (so was I). What an amazing performance that was tonight and on friday. I was lucky enough to get 2 tickets for the Chiba shows and even though I was in the last top row both times, this will remain as one of the highlights of my life.

I'm not very good at remembering that. So please: Errors excepted. From the English subtitles (I don't understand Japanese) I think I remember the following:


He said that nobody's life can always be happy. But he hopes that someday, when we need it, we will find comfort and hope in the story / his skating / the dancing of Elevenplay / the words of Echoes. That we can look forward (again), that we can grasp the future, that we can make the most of life (is perhaps my interpretation).

He was sad to say goodbye to Nova.

 

After that, he wanted to lighten the mood again.

He briefly explained his intentions with Echoes, apologized for the “bad” explanation of the audience choreography (LMEY), saying that anyone who didn't understand it could just scream. And Mikiko would have done this choreography by the way (probably Troll-Zu:giggle:). He used “roulette” to decide which side would start the choreography.
He was happy with his jumps today, the ice was really good here, now he unfortunately had to say goodbye to this ice.

 

He hopes and looks forward to seeing us again, until next time. At the end, he repeatedly wished everyone good health and "be well".

 

Sorry for any inconsistencies, perhaps these are no longer faithful reproductions, but rather my interpretation.

Same! Except I was in the next to last row on Friday and the 3rd to last today. Still a great view!
