Hi guys! I'm very happy to finally join planet Hanyu, some of you may recognize my user name from the time I was active in the Goldenskate Fan fest   To quickly introduce myself, I'm a huge fan of our dear Yuzu since 2011-12, he's my favorite skater EVER, and first inspiration as I'm a figure skater myself (not very high level though)! I'm lucky enough to have seen him live at Worlds 2012, Trophée Eric Bompard and the 2016 GPF. 

I was looking for information on the Internet and thought here may be the best place to ask.. 

 

My boyfriend is going to Japan next month (without me  ) and I begged him to find me some "Yuzu-stuff". I would like to know how easy it is to find Yuzu-related merchandising, could it be books, diaries, magnets, bags, mouse mats, whatever ? 

I saw the books and magazines review thread: can these items be purchased in regular bookstores ? 

 

I'm sorry if my questions sound dumb but I figured I could ask to the most friendly community

Thank you for your answers and long live our kings!

 

Hi! He's probably all over the place. Especially if your BF is going to a metropolitan area. When I was visiting some close friends in a small town in Gifu last year, the book section of the backwater little mall they had there had a whole shelf dedicated to figure skating books and mags, 3/4 of which has you-know-who on the cover. Mind you, this was also during slap bang in the middle of the off-season. The rest of the mall was littered with pottery.

 

So I don't imagine your BF would have to try too hard to come face-to-face with a magazine cover (or twenty) that has Hanyu's beaming visage on it.

That's great news! Thank you very much for your answer
