Why can't the World reciprocate by gifting Yuzu with a little kindness & not intrude his private life? This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. This translation is fairly accurate, with less usage of overly strong words, and maintains a little vagueness. Spoiler My personal translation. Please do not repost outside this forum: To the people who are supporting me Thank you very much for the warm words, support and encouragement always. This is a personal affair, but there is something I would like to convey to everyone. I married a non-celebrity (ordinary) person. We mutually respect each other, and married with the resolve to cherish each other. In order to protect everything, we thought about various things, overcame them and lived past them. In the midst of that kind of life, my partner, even continuing in a situation where she cannot even leave one step out of the house, she behaved in my interests and supported me. Now, in various media, there is slander, acts of stalking and unauthorized reports and coverage about my partner who is a non-celebrity, her family and related parties, and also my family and related parties. Even in the living space, there are suspicious vehicles or people loitering around, and there are instances of being suddenly talked to. We have worried about this together while trying hard to protect each other from these kinds of situations. However, due to my inexperience, continuing to protect my partner and myself from the current situation is extremely difficult and difficult to bear. In the midst of the possibility of this kind of situation continuing and, the possibility that even if it were to improve temporarily, it would again become a situation like this, when thinking about the future from now on, hoping for my partner to be happy and wanting my partner to live happily without restraint, the decision to divorce was made. From now on, please stop any slander or unauthorized reports and coverage, and trouble-causing acts towards my partner, her family and related parties, and also my family and related parties. I say this from the bottom of my heart. From now on, I will continue to move forward. Please also support me from now on. Hanyu Yuzuru *Note that there is no gender of his partner stated.

Planet Hanyu Staff Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 I just want to calm down by listening to Yuzuru's gentle voice. Yuki Yuki Daisuki - I like snow very much. Sekkisei Official Channel - SAVE the BLUE - Snow Project - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viW-XuizA6E Read by Yui Aragaki, Yuto Totsuka, Aiko Uemura, and Yuzuru Hanyu. This post has been tagged by Yuzu_legend as [NEWS]. I'm really happy and touched that some of the Sendai accounts are posting their support for Yuzu https://twitter.com/nekomasamunecom/status/1726067830641377284 https://twitter.com/fujisaki_dept/status/1726078105167806749?s=20 This post has been tagged by Yuzu_legend as [NEWS]. I checked back in the thread, but it doesn't seem like the Olympics.com article about Yuzuru's announcement has been shared on the forum. Marika and other native Japanese speakers on Twitter have mentioned that their translation of the announcement was fairly accurate, and I think this is probably the best we'll get from a non-fan source. Here it is: https://olympics.com/en/news/figure-skating-japan-olympic-champion-hanyu-yuzuru-announces-divorce-partner Additional note from Marika: https://twitter.com/marika_yuzu/status/1725909496525205561?t=zjQpx_5nM7Hpuin2q7tVCw&s=19 I'm not sure if everyone is aware, but there is a lot of misinformation going on right now about the reason for the divorce. Yuzuru clearly mentions that media outlets and their intrusion in the couple's lives as the perpetrators in his written announcement, but various news media websites in Japan are "conveniently" leaving the media part out in their headlines when reporting the story, giving the impression that the slander, stalking, etc. was done by overzealous fans. Many people just read the news headlines and believe what's written. The general public and people who aren't fans of Yuzuru or follow his pro career probably won't read his actual statement (even if they understand Japanese). Yuzuru's message is being manipulated and the blame is being shifted from the media to his fans. Marika also commented on this: https://twitter.com/marika_yuzu/status/1725788334713413982?t=hpL-6OckkZvlqsNRa8OXSg&s=19 It's been asked here what we (as fans, and mainly international fans) can do for Yuzuru at this time. Correcting misinformation about his divorce is one thing we can do, so that the truth is at least known. If you encounter people, either in real life or online, who have the wrong impression, then you can share the Olympics.com article with them. There are some English-speaking fans already doing this on Twitter, but I'm sure misinformation is also on other sites like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, etc. and other fan spaces. Of course, engaging with strangers online takes some mental energy that not everyone can spare. And we can try to interact politely but it's inevitable that some people won't listen (e.g. you might get blocked by the user, they may argue with you, etc.). Sorry, I wrote a lot and it might not all make sense but I'm still quite sad about Yuzuru's situation...trying to feel a bit useful This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. https://www.straitstimes.com/sport/japan-skating-star-hanyu-blames-divorce-on-media-harassment Our local state media in Singapore also cited media harrassment to blame for this unfortunate event.

It would be beautiful under natural light, or even under moonlight. I would also like to take photos of his skating a classic program on the ice―covered stage of the Opera House. All of these are just my own fantasies." These are not just Kogaito-san's fantasies. It would be a dream come true to see Yuzu skate in these scenarios. I look forward to the photobook. I'm sure it must be gorgeous! Hopefully, there will be more official media content on Yuzu in English in the future. [NEWS] Link to comment

The conversion to a basketball floor can be set up in a few hours by using a method of laying flooring on top of the arena ice without melting it.
