I can't blame him, to be honest. It totally makes sense to play it like this. Take a year out to fully recover from the injuries, and then decide whether to continue competing or not.
Personally, I hope he does come back! A fully fit Takahashi would give young Hanyu some proper competition... and give the rest of the field a real run for their money!
Thank you Ira for posting the link to Facebook!
