So ISU has reset all records with the new scoring system, so currently Yuzuru is no longer the men's WR holder (it's Sota Yamamoto, actually; all current record holders are the Asian Open Challenger winners). Yuzuru's records, however, will remain unbroken as historical records prior to 2018-2019 in ISU's statistics site.

No no no, this is not acceptable!!! :59227c768286a__s:...so all of my time talking to my friends back in Vietnam was in vain !!!  The truth is that in Vietnam the most popular is soccer. Another truth is that Yuzu’s most enthusiastic Vietnamese  fan has moved to USA ( me   :cheer: And this Vietnamese fan really misses Yuzu a lot ! :tumblr_inline_n0o1ffHUs91qid2nw:)One more truth is that the sample survey population may be not unbiased  ! ( Vietnamese fans have several Facebook pages dedicated to Yuzu where I believe there are lots of Vietnamese fans who are in the country)... so many truths ... sorry 

Edit! Thank you to @¯\_(ツ)_/¯  for the correction! Now I feel much better ! :joy:

Yuzu part:

 

Hanyu’s incredible drive

 

Wilson has the highest praise for the two-time Olympic champion and told Ice Time a fantastic story about the Sendai native’s desire to be the very best.

 

“He is a samurai warrior,” Wilson says of the superstar. “He’s like a mythical ninja warrior.

 

“For the Olympic year in Sochi, when it came down to musical choice, I had worked with him the year before and he had his heart set on ‘Romeo and Juliet.’ He sent me the most incredible email, and it was just this absolute declaration of how badly he wanted to win the Olympics.

 

“I had never encountered such pure, intense . . . It was beyond desire. Absolutely beyond. You could not put a higher imperative on it.

 

“He wrote, ‘I don’t want to wait until the next Olympics to be the Olympic champion, I want to be the Olympic champion now. And I’m willing to do anything to make that happen, so please, please help me.’

 

“It was like an imploration, and I thought ‘Oh, my lord.’ “

 

Wilson was effusive in his description of Hanyu and how he can fuse together his athleticism and artistry.

 

“I haven’t worked with him since then (2013-14) in terms of his competitive stuff, but I have been watching him go,” Wilson stated. “I have done exhibition pieces for him which I absolutely love. I get the best of both worlds.

 

“The thing with Yuzuru is, he is such a competitive animal and such a tiger. So when I get to do a show with him, I love it. As much as he is an amazing competitor and an athlete, he is also an amazing artist. He has charisma for 10 people.

 

“He can make the most pregnant pause nothing moment be so memorable, because he is feeling it. Then he can move his body like a cat. There is nothing he can’t do.”

 

Wilson discussed Hanyu’s musicality and dedication to perfection.

 

“He has the ear . . . we did this piece (“Haru yo koi”) for ‘Fantasy on Ice.’ I flew in one day early,” Wilson commented. “We choreographed it in 4½ hours and I saw him for 1½ hours the next day for follow-up. Then I was into group rehearsals and that was it.

 

“He loved the song. It was a heartfelt kind of experience for him. He will spend hours in his hotel room going over each nuance of the music and each movement in the mirror with a fine-tooth comb.”

 

Wilson confessed that even he was amazed about how quickly Hanyu was able to be presented with the program and then execute it flawlessly.

 

“I watched him perform it three times and I was just blown away. We choreographed it on Monday and he was performing it on Friday. I was sitting often watching the show beside (Evgeni) Plushenko’s wife, and she just looked up in the air and was like, it’s from somewhere else.”

 

In all the years they have worked together, Wilson claimed he has never seen Hanyu lose his temper with another person.

 

“I’ve seen him get mad at himself, but I’ve never seen him get mad at somebody else,” Wilson stated. “I have seen him get obsessed (with his skating).”

 

As with Yuna, Wilson says Hanyu has been generous with his gratitude.

 

“He has said some really heartfelt, sweet things to me of appreciation,” Wilson said. “He’s one of a kind, that’s for sure.”

Just stating a fact !

 

It makes me sad thinking about those early times when Yuzu could wander out in public hanging out with his friends . He looked like he was having fun ! Of course fame comes with a price but I’m still sad .

Interrupting your serious discussion with my random discovery. :9: 

 

I was trying to search for a full broadcast of The Ice 2011, and found this blog:

https://blog.goo.ne.jp/juli_2010/e/5f9dc7086d61bc3a5bb2a2f737364cbb 

 

I google-translated it (because I'm THAT bored) and this part caught my interest: 

Cue squealing! :embSwan:  

 

Cue "aww, my heart!" :softYuzu:   

BTW, if anyone knows where to find the full broadcast of The Ice 2011 (if there is one), please share it to this poor (bored) soul. :snonegai:

On the topic of Yuzu's greatness (and how some people use the “Hanyu is not the best at anything” argument), another awesome post by Alice:
