New Mitsu Mangrove (in LGC inspired costume and Seimei pose) Yuzu episode soon?

 

 

Here's translation of a previous ep by yuzusorbet

 

ETA: Not "soon".. already broadcasted. Not Yuzu focused this time but more Olympic-focused. (If anyone can do a quick translation of interesting parts? :tumblr_inline_n18qr5lPWB1qid2nw:)

Actual news about Yuzuru‘s condition

So it's confirmed, as suspected. Now the question is... what layout will he use, then, without the 4Lz...

「(ジャンプは)4回転ルッツ以外は全ていい状態だ。彼はトレーニングがよくできている。驚きだ。当然、金メダルが狙える」

I'm not so good at translating, but according to the above article, Orser said, "all the jumps except 4Lutz are very good. He is training very well.

Surprising. Of course, he can aim for the gold medal."

Those are the most positive words I've heard since NHK. I almost cried.:tumblr_inline_n18qr5lPWB1qid2nw:

I think the fact that Yuzuru won't do the team event lead to some unnecessary doubt about him doing individual event so Brian want to clarify it. I'm surprise Brian reveal this now but tbh we would know it by next week, when he arrive to Korea and go to practice session. This is a week earlier IMO. I feel like his training is going well, like Brian said so they're more relax to reveal more info. 

 

Edit : according to this : http://www.sanspo.com/pyeongchang2018/news/20180205/pye18020523070035-n1.html, Brian said all jumps are good except the 4lz. And he will avoid 4lz at Olys.

Apparently the article says both that all jumps are good except 4Lz AND that he'll avoid 4Lz at the Olympics. To clarify, from the same translator:

Asahi, Mainichi, Sanspo have reported this news so far, but all of them based on Kyodo, (there’s (共同) at the end of each article) 

Japanese:

https://this.kiji.is/333248494964261985?c=39550187727945729

English:
https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2018/02/3cae47dd86f1-olympics-hanyu-to-participate-in-figure-skating-individual-event.html

 

Direct quotes in Japanese articles:
-「もちろん個人種目は出る」
(He will definitely take part in the individual event)
-「(ジャンプは)4回転ルッツ以外は全ていい状態だ。彼はトレーニングがよくできている。驚きだ。当然、金メダルが狙える」
(All of his repertoire (of jumps) except for 4Lz is well tuned. He has been training himself amazingly well. Of course, he can go for the gold.)

 

Indirect quote:
-故障の原因となった大技の4回転ルッツは回避するという。
((According to Orser) Yuzu will avoid attempting 4Lz which caused his injury. )

USA article on Yuzuru! TIME magazine is widely read - nice to see Yuzuru acknowledged as perhaps the "greatest figure skater of all time".

It says when TV Asahi asked Brian about Yuzu’s form, he said “I think he’ll return to 100%.” :tumblr_inline_n18qr5lPWB1qid2nw:

 

(The tone is sort of speculative and I’m not sure my translation conveys it accurately. Maybe someone can do better?)

I don't understand anything but news from Brian

Here Brian is quoted to say “Yuzu’s already started jumping quads in practice. From about a week ago he’s been returning to form in a surprising speed/ to a surprising degree.” (Again, very rough translation)

 

Can’t tell from the Japanese if it was a week ago that he started to jump quad, or he jumped quads before  but just hit the surprising degree from a week ago??? Someone better at Japanese help please!:tumblr_inline_ncmif7esGm1rpglid:

It also says that Yuzu still hasn't jumped 4lz so I guess rather than it it not being in good condition, it's just been avoided.

Orser talked with the media again today.

・Yuzuru is going to do 2 quads in SP, 4 or 5 quads in FS, choose one from three patterns.
・He is planning to do 4T and 4S, but 4Lo is uncertain yet.
・He was doing physical training and image training of the jumps when he was off the ice, and now he has been building up the stamina doing runthrough 3 times for SP and about 2 times for FS a day.
・When he first got on the ice in the beginning of January, he did 1A, and then did 2A but failed, so he tried 3A and succeeded. After that, he has been doing well.

And this TV show says he will arrive in Korea tomorrow, Feb. 9. I'm not sure where this is coming from (Orser said this to the media today?:confused:), but we better be ready either way :biggrin:

"The blood, sweat and tears, we need to do at home, and not in this sort of fishbowl. He will do three run-throughs at the start of the session and most people do one. He will do two free skates out of a session and most people do one."

 

"He did a lot of stuff off the ice and he does a lot of visual training anyway. But now he did extra and he did a lot of physical training off the ice, so in some ways, he is in much better shape than he ever would have been because he had to do all this other training," said Orser.
