Planet Hanyu Staff Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 https://twitter.com/taedonyzlove/status/1382333422312443904?s=20 Here's a longer version - sorry if posted already! This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. This is putting undue pressure on Yuzu! He didn't say he is going for a "win" - whatever that means in this meaningless WTT. The Japanese news headlines say "Ikee Rikako won! Matsuyama Hideki won! Now it's the turn of Hanyu Yuzuru (to win)" https://twitter.com/GHQ2000/status/1382417299550871552?s=20 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. https://twitter.com/tomikoyuzu/status/1382419367241998336?s=20 Mystery solved.

So, as I understand, he had to go through 2 weeks of quarantine (after worlds)? While the athletes from abroad just needed to do a PCR and stay in the hotel??? I do understand he lives there, but couldn't there be an arrangement for him to stay in Osaka already, training at the official rink, with drivers that would be working for WTT already? That seems like a disadvantage for him 😥 Yuzu has arrived at venue. Hope for a good practice. https://twitter.com/SponichiF/status/1382509436518895621?s=20 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

What I saw and heard was utterly wonderful! Last January I decided to tell the choir children what had happened on 3.11 and showed them the video of the performance; they were amazed and immediately asked me to sing the song. We want to thank the composers and Mr. Hanyu for showing us a real and inspirational beauty and we pray for all who passed away and those who are still suffering in Japan."

Yuzu should get extra high GOEs for that 3A! This is a super creative and unusual jump exit if I've ever seen one. And it's definitely harder to land a jump this way and gracefully stay on your feet than landing a jump the normal way. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

Yuzu doesn't say he's angry - that term doesn't come up in that second sentence. Rather, he says: I have some frustration (kuyashii feeling) with regard to the Worlds, and while I do acknowledge holding some feelings like I want to have a chance at "revenge" (which means more like "redemption" than a literal revenge), overall I feel I have matured and want to perform my Free with that same feeling.

The translation captures the gist of the article, but with some usual mix up of personal pronouns (it's hard to know who is talking - Yuzu or the professor) and one hilarious mistranslation! When Prof first "met" Yuzu on Skype, the translation says: "I felt an attitude" lol (I am sure Yuzu always has a certain "attitude"!!) However, here is the original Japanese sentence: 彼は疲れも見せずしっかり受け答えをしていて、学ぶことへの真摯な態度を感じました。 "He didn't even show any fatigue (the Prof makes this point because the interview was right after Yuzu's 2012 competition) and answered my questions clearly and with certitude (i.e. not waffling about with vague responses), and gave me the impression that he has a serious/sincere attitude toward his studies." In other words, "I felt an attitude", which is a good summary!

Yuzu interview after the Free program: 「今シーズン、やっぱり４回転半が入れられなかったことがすごく残念に思います。ただ４回転半を練習してきたからこそ見えてきた曲とのつながりとか、トリプルアクセルとの違いとか、他のジャンプへの体の使い方の考え方とか、いろんなことが見つかっています。そういった今の知識、経験、いろんなものを結集させて、来季４回転半を目指して、そして４回転半が揃った、完成された演技を目指して頑張ってきたいと思います」 I really regret that I was not able to incorporate 4A this season. But because I was practicing 4A I was able to gain new insights into how to make better connection with the music, understand the difference with 3A, and think about using my body in the other jumps - I have discovered many new things. I want to bring together all the knowledge, experience and other things I have accumulated (this season) and apply them toward next season's 4A. And I will aim for a perfect performance that incorporates 4A. A beautiful closing statemtent for a very special season. Thank you!

The descendant of Lord Kenshin was watching Yuzu's performance today. He sends this message to Yuzu: Even though the result was "second" you fought magnificently. You may feel "kuyashii" for not being number one, but I can say with conviction that you have given courage and hope to many people. I hope Yuzu sees this and is heartened by the support he gets from the Uesugi family!! In the pinned post, this descendant says that he is doing his best to maintain the memories of Lord Kenshin and the way of "virtue" 義, and is struggling to make sure this historical legacy will not be erased from the school textbooks. So he must feel connection with Yuzu in their shared struggle for justice in this world... https://twitter.com/bishamon_uesugi/status/1383055846666510339?s=20 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. I want to add this tweet because it is both hilarious and emotional - "Attention Lord Kenshin!! Lord Nobunaga is crying!!" This is so emotional because Oda Nobunaga (Nobu's ancestor) was known as the fiercest warlord of his time, and was one of the three lords who eventually united all of Japan. Lord Kenshin died of illness before this came to pass. Oda Nobunari weeping his eyes out for Kenshin's legacy is something to behold.

I'm not gonna waste my positive energy on N's ridiculous PCS.... TenChi was beautiful today, even the popped 4S didn't disrupt the flow at all. I think he wanted to skate smoothly more than forcing any element. Tbh I wasn't quite into the music of TenChi at first, but like most Yuzu's programs, I'm becoming more and more enamored with its intricate and delicate details. Don't misunderstand me tho, I may not like the music too much at first but I have always loved his performance of this program. Such gorgeous skating and choreo! I haven't gushed enough about TenChi really. This program truly is his legacy. I sincerely hope he could bring this along with 4A to create a masterpiece at the Olympics to further cement his status as the GOAT. I truly think that no matter the results, Yuzu will be the most talked about skater post Oly, as always Looking at the comparisons below, it's plain as day something was truly amiss at WC. He was visibly slower, sluggish and not as in tune with the music for the first part. So I'm glad his condition is better now, stomach issue notwithstanding. God sure likes to test his favorite creation with many tribulations.

I know that there are some people who find Max a bit problematic, but I have never really seen any other foreign commentator who knows or even tries to understand Yuzuru as a skater beyond the surface level. "Hanyu taught us...that a jump must be loved. You cannot abandon it on its own, in a corner of the rink. A jump must have something before, something afterwards, it must be valued by the athlete. The Hanyu who wants to land the 4A aims to jump a perfect element, not just in terms of score, but for all that surrounds it." Yep, this is why his skating stands out so much to me. There are skaters with great skating skills, but none who can really blend in the jumps the way he does. His transitions also don't feel like transitions for the sake of transitions. Whatever steps he uses matches the music and the theme of the program. My current favorite example of this is the twizzle exit from the 3A in Ten to Chi to. "What he wants now, is to be the first skater to land a 4A. From a strictly technical point of view, I'm happy he is continuing. From a human point of view, I ask myself whether a champion like him deserves to get on the ice, perform a perfect program and then see himself underscored by the judges. By people who shouldn't even address him on the street, if you see what I mean." Describing every fanyu's struggles. I don't know whether I want to laugh or cry when I think this, but it does feel validating hearing him say that, because no other figure skating public figure (lol) wants to address or even acknowledge judging problems when it comes to Yuzu.

Report on 4A What was thought this time: (1) 4A success is in sight. (2) Yuzuru Hanyu jumps 4A from steps. (3) 4A has wind roar and a tremendous impact sound when landing on the ice. Before going into the orbit, the skater's eyes were full of determination. It's also a challenge for the audience to prepare for it. 4) He can go to the next element even if 4A was a fall. https://twitter.com/gurikonoomake1/status/1383289198870884360 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. https://twitter.com/hitkurasawa/status/1383331517905072134 The comment on Yuzu's superhuman thighs tho LOL This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. @yuzuangel Here comes the clip you are looking for .

Rika got injured before the SP and could barely walk leading to the FP. Yuzu got stress and tired and experienced diet issues since Worlds. Shoma had trouble doing run-through and pain from boot issues. All of these health issues from at least half the team, on top of quarantine-related constraints. And yet, Team Japan is only 3 points away from beating Team USA. I would say congrats to Team Japan for fighting so hard towards the end. I hope they can get a good rest after this and start fresh for next season. PS: I can't help but think Team Japan basically consists of walking zombies heading to WTT LOL.

I believe this program (LMEY) has the meaning in this situation. I wanted to do this program because of the situation now.

Awww!! The content we need By the way... https://mobile.twitter.com/bee_yuzupon/status/1383692235342901251 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. Ok, I made an attempt. I've never tried to translate anything before, so this is kind of rough, but I did my best The commentators' names are Katarina Hultling & Angelica Olsson. *after the ex* Katarina, sounding close to tears: All figure skaters say, after their performances, that they've hoped that they’ve given the audience a clean skate, that they have done what they said they would do and skated a nice, clean figure skating program. But that’s not enough for this man, Yuzuru Hanyu. He is extremely interested in people understanding the spiritual part that is so important to him in figure skating. He fills his programs with... from the depth of his soul. And he’s very special in that way, he’s very alone in that. Angelica: And that's what makes him so special, and that he touches you. You cried to this program at the World Championships, and today I could hardly keep the tears out of my eyes, and… in every movement, there’s an emotion he’s conveying. And it’s not lots of things happening all the time, but instead it’s in the simplicity he speaks. Katarina: And you look at the hands and the face and… yes, he’s truly very special, he’s… he always wants to tell a story and wants people to understand him and what he wants to say. At the same time as he of course wants to skate clean and get high marks. *Yuzu shown in the k&c* Katarina: He’s also one of the most humble skaters The second part (the encore) wasn’t very interesting to me, except Katarina calls him “deeply artistic and soulful” and points out just how fast he is across the ice. Angelica also says that she’s sure he’s not going to quit until he has landed the quad axel., with Katarina pointing out that he was already the first to land the 4Lo in 2016, but she thinks he wants another one. And they don’t mention Nathan once! This post has been tagged by WinForPooh as [NEWS].

Oh wow, I was gone for a couple of hours at most and came back with so many new pages! From what I have gathered, despite Yuzu and his programs being as beautiful as ever, not watching is also a good choice because Simon was NOT a very good commentator (Plus the Russian skaters being the Russian skaters, without masks on whenever they can). https://twitter.com/orangesrgd/status/1383721992726061064?s=20 Case in point, this is NOT what I want to see. See how Yuzu doesn't even hover his hands at the others' skaters back and here they are, without any masks?

We have the Swedish, the Greek, the German, the Spanish, the Italian, the Hungarian and now the Czech commentators, who are able to talk respectfully about Yuzu and TAKE the time to research information: https://twitter.com/moni135531/status/1383756699928973323 As we can see, it is possible to comment on Yuzu's performances without mentioning NC in every second sentence. Also, the Czech fellows know that Hana wa saku is dedicated to the victims of 3-11 and also what the lyrics mean. They even mention the quad Axel as something that may be bigger than an Olympic gold and change figure skating in the future. This is all I expect from professional commentators. They don't have to praise Yuzu to the skies. It's totally enough to simply appreciate what he offers to us and not compare him to others all the time. Figure skating is not only about winning and losing after all. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. https://twitter.com/yuzu_kyun_mami/status/1383785066501861378?s=20 The duality...

It has surpassed 700 K views already and moved up to 14th place in total! In the current top 15 of the channel we have 12 clips about soccer, one about athletics and big-wave riding... and yeah, Yuzu! Congrats! Little background: The ARD Sportschau is the main sports broadcaster on German television, focusing on sports where German athletes used to be very successful like soccer, athletics, swimming, handball, biathlon, ski jumping, nordic combined, bobsleigh and luge. Figure skating has pretty much died with Katarina Witt's retirement. There was a little rise in interest after Aljona's and Bruno's victory in Pyeongchang, but that dropped again quite quickly. To have Yuzu with so many clicks on a German channel is something very special.

A feasibility study on utilization in figure skating by a wireless inertia sensor motion capture system By Yuzuru Hanyu Summary: The wireless inertia sensor-type motion capture does not interfere with the operation of the device wearer. As a result of the experiment, it became clear that when jumping figure skating on the skating rink, the position of each joint can be accurately obtained. In addition, by analyzing the skeleton, it is possible to identify the center of gravity and the contact points (where the pressure increases on the ground and the (?) where it is installed, and the jump strictly follows the rules. It was possible to quantitatively clarify whether the jump was strictly according to the rules. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

He's just so wonderful and smart and incredible in every way. Sometimes I really wonder if he's from another planet for real. If he were a fictional character, I'd actually say that the writer needs to make him less perfect to make him more human and relatable. Even a superhero needs to have a few weaknesses and flaws. This is probably why he sucks at swimming, driving and bicycle riding. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

Contents of the "30,000 words thesis" written by Yuzuru Hanyu Interviewed prof Shoji Nishimura,Waseda University. Sports Graphic Number, article written by Takaomi Matsubara (reposted on 4/15/21) - Title of the thesis: A Feasibility Study of Utilization in Figure Skating by A Wireless Inertia Sensor Motion Capture System. - The thesis consist of the following three parts: 1. Analysis of jumps using Motion capture technology: Research based on data collected by himself attaching sensor (difference between successful & unsuccessful 3 & 4 jumps such as flight time, prep movement before jumps) 2. Analysis of jumps recorded in 2D video using AI: Analyze video of his own as well as other skaters 3. Analysis of jumps after reconstructing above 2D video to 3D: Undertook to make a 3D based from 2D video. - According to prof Nishimura, each or the 3parts consisting the thesis is at the level which could be stand alone as a thesis. 30,000 words are more than twice the average thesis. Hanyu pursues one subject to another to gain deeper understanding, as seen by its content&structure. - Professor Nishimura's impression on Yuzuru Hanyu can become a top-class researcher. His research field is new that would like him to lead. He is very articulate in communicating (make it really understandable of his research,) that he would make a great leader as well. Professor Nishimura spares no praise, saying, "It can be said that it is beyond the scope of a graduation thesis. Yuzuru Hanyu's thesis was so complete, I had not much to do. - In thesis of Yuzuru Hanyu , there was written his sincere thoughts (to why he engaged in this study) It's hard to see the number of revolutions of a jump with the human eye. It's not that there is a mistake, but "I think that using the data will support the judges." -end- PS: I do wonder which skaters made it to his thesis This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

He did really choreograph his opening solo himself. Oh I long to see the day Yuzu becomes a choreographer, for himself or others. I wonder if those skaters can realize his vision... Re the part about wanting the choreo to look good from all directions. I distinctly remember him saying in some interview that FS differs from other performing arts in that FS performance has to look good in 360⁰ so he has always been very mindful of that. https://twitter.com/tsukiyominoasa/status/1386368947490942980?s=19 In the Spon*chi min by min report of the gala practice, Yuzu took a break, went to the rest area, pulled his pant leg up and wrapped his knee. It could be because of the 4A practice and the thing we saw in this footage. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. Also adorable: a couple of the other guys see him and start dancing too.

Here's something UA practice clothes enthusiasts may look forward to : There will be a new photobook focusing on Yuzu's practice clothes, to be published in May 2021. It's called 羽生結弦写真集: The Real (Yuzuru Hanyu Photobook: The Real ) by photographers Noto-san and Taguchi-san. It's 2860 JPY (in Japan, which includes tax) at CD Japan, but not yet listed at Amazon.co.jp and will be published/released in mid May 2021. The description at the Rakuten site, translated into English by Google (so there might be some errors) about the book and the photographers. "Athletes' "ultimate costumes" practice wear. Yuzuru Hanyu's "true form" is here. This book is a collection of photographs that focus on the "practice clothes" of Yuzuru Hanyu, who won back-to-back winter Olympic men's singles titles and leads the figure skating world as the top figure skater in the world. Quadruple Axel, a magazine specializing in figure skating, has condensed into a book the "real face" of the absolute champion who has been chasing its growth since 2008. We carefully selected the practice scenery at the home rink, off-shots at the tournament, portraits of exclusive coverage that can only be seen here, and valuable interview cuts. The body trained to the limit, the work that is beautiful to the fingertips, stands out even more only in practice clothes. - Benefits: A2 size double-sided pos About the photographers: ■ Photographer ・ Noto Nao Sunao Noto Born in 1976, born in Miyagi Prefecture.
