Yuzuru Hanyu: 2015-16 Season

[gsyzf]

Why on Earth you worry about money? I don't care if they don't win the same one time in a while for Yuzu to visit more countries during GP series.
Do you know what is next for Yuzu- prove himself again before the home crowd. He can skip that NHK once in a while, no big deal.

I meant a big loss of money for the organizer JSF. I'm thinking from JSF's perspective. If they can earn $2 million revenue (just a made up number) when yuzu competes at NHK, and only $1 million when Yuzu is not at NHK, why would JSF give up that additional $1 million revenue? If they can earn more, why earn less?

Poor Yuzuru... It all comes down to economic reasons after all.

I think he enjoys performing to his home crowd as well. But the gap between NHK and GPF is really short...

Yuzuru is not poor. He likes competing in Japan.

Does the order of the Grand Prix events change every season?

 

[xibsuarz]

What will the GP order be like this year?

Does the order of the Grand Prix events change every season?

I think it just changed this year.

Of course he likes but they're not going to change NHK date just to make him breathe easier

 

[gsyzf]

Of course he likes but they're not going to change NHK date just to make him breathe easier

1. The organizer is not going to change the event date just for one person. There are over 50 competitors at the same event.

2. Changing the date requires negotiation with other feds. The other feds need to be willing to switch the dates with JSF. Unless there are special reasons, it would be hard to change the event dates.

ETA: The 2017 GPF will be held in Japan. It's very possible the date of NHK will change in the 2016-2017 season.

Mao can't sell tickets of men's competition. Shoma is nowhere near as popular as Yuzu. It's not just ticket sale, but TV ratings too. Not keeping Yuzu at Nhk means big loss of money.

After the latest "scandal" i'm not sure how much support Yuzuru still has. It's not fair bc he hasn't done anything wrong, but life is not fair, the damage is done :disapp:

This is getting ridiculous.

Hey guys, there is a new movie coming out in the summer

My guess:

Javier: SA, TEB
Yuzuru: SC, NHK
Boyang: COR, COC

The feds have their calls for invitation, but the skaters can also choose. I don't think Javier wants to clash with Patrick, he'll pick SA. If Americans and Canadians both want to avoid him, I guess they will follow the skater's choice.
No matter Yuzu is willing to go or not (I suppose he's happy to do), he will be assigned to NHK. JSF will not let him go. The reality tells that he's the golden goose. It's not myself who want him to go. It's the organizers. They don't care if he has rest or not when it comes to revenue. If they do care about Yuzu's schedule, he should have been let go this year. For SC... idn, I just feel like he doesn't want to travel that much so he will stay in Canada. And he has never been afraid to battle Patrick.
Boyang... okay, bronze gets the rest.

 

[Rissa]

This is getting ridiculous.

what makes you believe his fans in Japan have abandoned him? it sounds very pessimistic, what evidence lead you to that conclusion?

I'm starting to suspect trolling. You know, the "concerned fan" type of troll because seriously, what the eff.

 

[Athena13]

My eyes hurt from all the rolling seriously. :disapp:

Complete and great quality! Thank you for the link!

ETA: Does it seem like he's been mentioning "Sing, Sing, Sing" quite a bit lately?

 

[Fayruza]

Maybe she knows something we don't
seriously, i can't believe anyone would dare to abandon my prince on ice

Yeah right, the Prince has lost all his fans and compromised his reputation. all because of punching a board in anger. and asa consequence of a few ramblings by his competitor.
Let's have some ridiculous drama in the off-season period. It's a very long wait.

Yeah, I'm starting to believe it's a subtle form of trolling as well.

TV clip of the Gala and most of the TV clips are like this...fully in support of Yuzu. No need to worry about that.
Fans are not so fickle and JSF is well aware that even an imperfect Hanyu is the best skater they ever had and/or may ever have. He's still the only one to bring home a medal this year.
