General Yuzuru Chat - Part 2 - Page 10 - Yuzuru Hanyu

Monday at 12:20 PM2 days

Please guys I need a therapy. I recently saw an internet discussion where people kept praising Anna Shcherbakova's artistry and choreos and were agreeing that Yuzuru's programs were empty compared to hers (that she was constantly doing some moves and never resting still, while he kept having lots of those calm moments in his programs).

No, they need therapy. Yuzuru is famous for being praised by experts for having his programs complex and packed with transitions. It is universally known.
Also, comparing two different disciplines is weird. Why do they feel the need to compare everyone to him? Who's next, ice dancers? 😅

Dear AxelLover, I think that it is a matter of definition. Of course, there are many amazing athletes on ice, but Yuzuru is so much more.

I feel that every movement he makes, every breath, every gaze are all part of his performance. He does not show off his skills, he is a story-teller. If the technical elements serve the story he performs them with a genuine spirit, never holding back. He offers himself genuinely as an athlete, a choreographer and an artist with very demanding spins, jumps, steps, hydroblades and Ina Bauers in a tremendous quality and elegance. Never the same, but always overwhelming and exhilerating.

In his solo ice stories lasting for one and a half hour, he is a masterpiece until the last second. The only member of a new genre he invented. And he is still evolving. Thus, by definition I think there is no one to be compared with him now.

Plus, it is just the 20-60-20 rule. 20% of the audience love and cherish his performances, 60% admire it and 20% are a bit indifferent. 🌸

And you will find other discussions where Anna's artistry etc is panned.

The few people who you saw are just showing their ignorance.
