Planet Hanyu Staff Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 https://twitter.com/LGeorgin/status/1519695068923572224 Gosh, this is so painful to read. I watched his practice live. That was such a devastating experience. But Yuzu is such a fighter! He is such an inspiration! No wonder he won the hearts of so many new fans after Beijing Olympics and remained the biggest star without winning a medal. This is the kind of spirit and courage that touches and moves people. This is the stuff of legends. I think if Yuzu's health permits it, he will continue on his quest for landing the 4A, not just land it, but land it his way. I believe we will still get to see much more even better and more amazing skating by him. [NEWS] Link to comment
Planet Hanyu Staff Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 https://twitter.com/LGeorgin/status/1520193148487880704 Yuzu talking about his 4A entry and take-off in Ice Jewels. I think Yuzu's epiphany to return to his roots and his Axel entry as a novice was truly a game changer. That's why I believe he'll continue pursuing the 4A if his health allows it. He was so close in Beijing. But no matter what he should decide to do, I will always support him. I just want him to follow his heart and do whatever makes him happy and content. [NEWS] https://twitter.com/marika_yuzu/status/1520459104384593920 This is why Yuzu's performance of Tenchi at the Olympics is such a masterpiece despite the falls. If you ask me, the falls even added to the story Yuzu wanted to convey and show him as a warrior who never falters and perseveres with courage in the face of obstacles and setbacks. [NEWS] What a good start to the May. Yuzu's giggle https://twitter.com/AyuzawaHikari24/status/1520633438889410561 I miss him too. Here more from this doctor ''Yuzuru Hanyu is the reason why I could hold on." https://twitter.com/AngelJo84317699/status/1520643771720888320 "Yuzuru you are my spiritual pillar, perseverance that does not fall motivates me to insists." https://twitter.com/AngelJo84317699/status/1520601943609016320 [NEWS] Wow ... that are really touching words.

Since the chat is moving slowly, here are the official FaOI goods for the image training. It is just three weeks, we can do it! https://twitter.com/BluecosmosH/status/1522465294492790784?s=20&t=eBiUAWgOWuRgju0DNYe5cQ This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. This is nothing like a complete translation, but I can tell you in general terms what the video is about. Kurihara-san of Ajinomoto has been providing Yuzu with support and advice regarding his athletic dietary needs for 10 years. Yuzu’s basic problem was that he did not really enjoy eating. (I will accept this statement for the purposes of this discussion, but I find this a little contradictory when I think about the video about him shoveling back huge mouthfuls of TKG – tamago kake gohan – raw egg on rice – with a full tray of other goodies at the cafeteria-style restaurant.) Anyway, back to the video. When Kurihara-san heard this – that Yuzu did not enjoy eating – he made it his mission to provide him with food that is not only good for him, but that he would enjoy eating. The one turning point was when Yuzu told Kurihara-san that he enjoyed gyoza and that he could eat gyoza with every meal. From that point, it wasn’t just a case of trying to make a healthy, good tasting gyoza for Yuzu, it was a case of “it will be done” for Kurihara-san. In order to develop this gyoza for Yuzu, Kurihara-san did a survey of 100 athletes to find out whether they enjoyed eating gyoza and discovered that over 90 did. The problem was that they enjoyed eating gyoza, but it did not fit into their athletic preparations. So Kurihara-san started experimenting with gyoza to make it healthy and when he thought that he had the proper formula, he had some athletes taste them. When he asked them how it tasted, they politely said that it was “tasty”, but without much conviction. Kurihara-san went to a professional chef and asked him to taste the gyoza and the chef said that it did not taste like gyoza at all. He suggested making changes that would make it tasty. As a result, they finally came out with a gyoza that they tried on Yuzu and they show a picture that was taken after he tasted it and he had a big genuine smile. This was proof to Kurihara-san that they had found the perfect formula for healthy and tasty gyoza. They included gyoza in every meal for Yuzu. They started producing two types of gyoza. Ultimately, Kurihara-san suggested including these gyoza in the diet for Japanese athletes competing in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and later for Japanese athletes competing in the 2022 Beijing Olympics. Therefore, as a result of Yuzuru Hanyu, Ajinomoto developed a gyoza that was not only healthy, but tasty, and this was an important part of the diet for many Japanese Olympians in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and 2022 Beijing Olympics. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. Many thanks Geo for your detailed summary. A thank you also to Mr. Kurihara for his support of Yuzu over the years.

Yuzu wasn't kidding when he said he loves gyoza. These must be really delicious for him to eat them at every meal. I love gyoza too, but eating them every day might get a bit boring for me.
