Yuzuru Hanyu: 2014-15 Season

:shocked: He did a 4T+4T+4T combo?!?!! What in the world.....is that even humanly possible? Imagine the speed and flow needed coming out of the first 2 quads to maintain a 3 quad combo....I wonder if he'll ever try it out in competition (a quad/quad combo)...or at least let us see a video of it. :drama:
 
This is insane...what he is capable of is beyond imagination. Anyone has posted these clips?


I wouldn't be so sure that this is true tough, there's no report about that and I don't remember him saying anything about trying quad combinations. I think that if it was true, the media would be all over it already, just like they were with the 4loop :laugh: Also I remember about the video with Mura trying a quad-quad combination, he was almost round.

------------

About the poll, it was indeed a strange poll and uncalled for, it looks like they were waiting for him to turn 20 to include him in polls like that :drama: it would be better if it was a actual "most huggable" survey :laugh: If so then Yuzuru would be first for me. I'm actually feeling really weird about ladies in their 40-50's having such thoughs about him, I already knew that this happens in regards to him because of other videos etc but everytime I think about that I feels really wrong, imagine if Yuzuru was a girl and it were men in their 40-50, I think it's wrong in both ways. I'm barely older than him and I still see him mostly as a brother, son, I don't know. Or better, actually just as a skater ;) I post everything that I find and when I Google translated what was said at the tweet It did talk about something about 'hugs' but the phrase made no sense so I didn't credit it. I guess Google translate is as naive as some of the posters :laugh:

If that's true I need to watch once in my lifetime :laugh:

I'd be less inclined to believe it if it was coming from the Japanese media :slink: but since its a Dutch commentator who said he saw it...I don't know. Maybe it was a 4T/4T/3T....it seems way more plausible lol.

I know that japanese media isn't very trustworthy, but if there was a video about him doing or at least trying like Mura I would believe. I just think that the moment that japanese media know about it they would be very thirsty to gush over it and record it :laugh:

if that turns out to be actually true we'll definitely need some android testing for him


Best eyebrowns
Sportman you want to "hug" the most
Best hands...

...
Bets on what of this awards will made him happier?
my money would've been on "most huggable" until we took a detour into the mysterious lands of Japanese euphemisms :laugh:

I almost laughed all night long last night since I saw this “must huggable” discussions. When Kalina pointed out what “hug” means in the poll, I immediately recalled some online fictions written by some young folks - they also use “hug” to mean the intimate contact, and I just did not realize the term originates from Japan.

I am not surprised that older women explicitly expressed their interest in Yuzu the minute he turned a legal adult. After Sochi I saw in some Japanese TV show a poll on what part of Yuzu was most attractive, and what you would like to do with him (with translation, of course). Some Japanese lady (in 40s) answered that it was his panting at the end of the performance…and she would like to lock him up at home…something with “that kind” of implications. I was thinking…gee, he was still a minor…what would his parents think about this fantasies some (older) ladies had with him? And now….hard to link these thoughts with his innocence we cherish so much….but we have to accept the fact that he is an adult now. :biggrin:

is there any possibility that they mean 4T3A3A3A instead of back to back 4T? not only it would be crazy but also i cant imagine they know about it and we never heard about it before :slink: no way we cant know about it :laugh:
thank you winnie!!! and everyone who posted links and updates
 
I'm trying to reconcile the ideas of older women wanting to, uhm, hug him, and someone else talking about how mothers would want their own children to be like him, but my brain just kinda goes kablooey :laugh:

:unsure: Why japanese media seems so eager to create such polls about public personalities? I guess it happens with other popular atlhetes too, not only with Yuzuru but I find in any case just not necessary. Maybe i'm just missing the point of media, well, media always wants to create some topics. It's not a matter of "accepting that he's an adult" I think, especially because I don't paint him as having such "innocence", he's 20 years old after all, with or without plushies :laugh: It just seems odd to me how media works

I wouldn't believe a word of it. :laugh: Not in combo, anyway. After another, maybe, but not in combo. Besides which, I have no clue where the commentator could've possibly seen it. Anyway, the commentary itself is rather funny at that point. Let's just say the lady commentator didn't sound like she believed it, either.
 
Actually, I'm sort of surprised that so many people here seem surprised at the reactions of the Japanese ladies. To me, this is the most normal thing in the world, older women lusting after younger, pretty and especially famous guys. I guess maybe I have been part of too many television fandoms... *twisted mind* I know this is sports fandom, not television, but clearly some things are the same everywhere!
The single one thing that has surprised *me* about this whole topic of conversation is that it took this long to happen here. I didn't realize it was a PG forum, though, so that makes sense to me now. ;-)

I'm guessing Japan also has more serious TV shows and those that want to sensationalize everything, don't they? :) There will always be those shows that ask questions like this, it's part of the deal.

Goodness I saw the word "hug" again!
Already traumatized? :laugh:


But here's a thought, maybe they're not so focused on legal age but concentrate on age of consent? :biggrin: that would give them a little leeway I guess.
