I will forgive the Groniad for a lot after their nice article about John Curry and Yuzuru.  Any quality newspaper coverage is a good thing.  The Times doesn't even have sporadic coverage- just Olympic results, no articles.  Pages and pages and pages and pages of football- reports, results, analysis, gossip, occasionally spilling over into the crime pages. Rugby, cricket, horse racing- apart form that it's little bits and bobs of coverage of any other sport.  At least the skating makes it onto the tv - one of my sons is a keen fencer and you're lucky to ever see that off YouTube.

You think you have that Curry-Yuzu article somewhere? I've heard so many comparisions between the two, but there is little footage of Curry's era so I'm at the mercy of written sources...

I'm kind of dreading the documentary, mostly because it'll most likely be old footage and interviews at the beginning of the season, and his attitude there will likely have changed now with what has happened, and I'm going to be sad all over again. 

I can't wait for your typical Japanese narrative and usage of awesome songs kind of dramatically unfitting to the scenes playing on the screen

I guess it will be mostly old footage for people not following FS that closely, but maybe we will get a sneakpeak or something of the current Yuzu (or December Yuzu, let's not be picky) too!

_{I'm failing at being positive but not demanding Fanyu sooo much...}

Well, true. But the LGC costume is quite memorable. Plus people can always look for the Pooh Rain.

And they will have to, if they have kids! Pooh is another visionary aspect of Yuzu career, he drags young minds into his sport without any violence! _{Yes, my brain seems to get a bit funny...}

I have a PDF of it if someone could give me the idiots guide to uploading it?  Failing that, google 'Guardian Hanyu Curry ' and it will pop up.

I'm not going to make a video because the one I still have on my Laptop is a joke, but as a consolation, here's some links:

http://www.bilibili.com/video/av2794012/?from=search&seid=13203277687907041681 the one that should be shoved in the face of anybody crossing Yuzu out before he even stepped on the ice.

https://www.bilibili.com/video/av8116129/?from=search&seid=16365933757585940556 the one that popped up in my head the second I read about the combustion and all our reactions to that tweet xD

https://www.bilibili.com/video/av11225464/?from=search&seid=16365933757585940556 this one, which I didn't see before, because I'm sure I would remember the mashup of the two songs describing competitive personality of Yuzu like this, with added flourish of those programs.

Keiji replaces him in that role for this season but who knows, maybe he manages to peer-pressure Yuzu into it...I can't believe I'm HOPING for peer pressure, lol me 

 

Spoiler

Sorry for the quality, but I guess I want to show you Keiji and imagine how Yuzu would make it even more Extra

His condition and practicing now is like national secret lmaooo. All answers about if he's recovering or how well is it is so wishy-washy I can't take any serious. Thou I understand everybody (from Jpn to outside) is looking at his each and every move, every single word to the public must be safe and neutral, otherwise it might bring unnecessary storm that's not good for his image, and his mentality too, before the big competition.

It is like a national secret. We living off of little slips from Javi and twts from club members.

Taking about pressure/expectations... but that was a quite nice picture compared to the ones they normally used... and quite funny they didn't expect their ladies to podium at all

In exactly 1 month, Yuzu will be skating in the Team Event SP (well, not confirmed, but most likely).

 

How time flies....

To be honest, I checked if my alcohol supply is full the other day when I realized how close we've gotten. Chocolate is not going to cut it. Tea isn't going to cut it! I am pregaming for this baby, thank you
