But back when they were competing, gosh, was it a spectacle to see! :) But then these were Russians, and we (Russians) have never been good at disguising our true feelings... skaters, coaches, fans... none of them. :)
And I wonder which behaviour pattern is more usual then - Plush/Yags or Yuzu/Javi?

I think neither are common. Plush/Yags hostility, if I have my facts straight, was deeply rooted in their daddy issues concerning Mishin (Yags being raised without a father and Plush living away from his parents, with Mishin favoring Plushy). Yuzu/Javi just seem to be a rare case of good rapport that didn't get destroyed by serious rivarly. I think that the fact that Yuzuru blames his failures on himself is one of the reasons the jealousy monster didn't touch him. As far as Javi's concerned, his history of clawing his way up from the bottom prevents him from feeling the entitlement some sportsmen display, and that's why he can be friendly with his greatest rival.

Yes. And this is what makes their rivalry sweet. It may not be completely perfect but the fact that they stay together in TCC is more than enough show of wonderful sportsmanship. Good luck to both Yuzu and Javi at Worlds! :hap10:

Psst... only 9 more days to go. :hap57:
 
Worlds almost close.. :shocked: i need to work hard to get my Yuzu Ava. :laugh: YFAC I'm coming~ :yahoo:
 
I refuse to believe Worlds just around the corner :drama: :drama:

about Javi/Yuzu, one is The skater who left his Russian coach coz the coach favor another student and the other is outlier from team Japan, it's bitter sweet honestly :)

I watched some video early this year but I lost the link, it was after an ice show I think(maybe when Yuzu still 17 Yo), and the big boys from team Japan(Dai, Taka and idk who was the other one) posing in front of the crowd and suddenly Yuzu joined them, I don't want to make such drama but to be honest I don't like the kind of look those three gave to Yuzu back than. Thats why I came to conclution that Yuzu never close to TJ. So, I can understand why Yuzu he prefer being alone than felt leftout among the other.

Maybe they feel cautious that the young skater (yuzu) come to take the spotlight soon..
I'm glad yuzu is different.. I mean, he was so kind and friendly (more brotherly?) to Shoma.. Even though they both fight for no.1 spotlight in team Japan..
 
About Shoma and Satoko, it's obvious he really makes effort. It's not like being friendly is hard for him, but I think it comforts him in some way to be able to guide his kohais in competitions. And they obviously need it (remember how lost Shoma was in AWG bcos he's not used to get gold? :laugh: ). He looks like a mother hen when he's together with them and I find it so sweet.

About Yuzu/Javi, I think the duality of their personalities, styles, and situations really help them to get along and respect each other. I just spent a long time discussing with a friend on Twitter on how Yuzu/Javi rivalry is so interesting. I always love the concept of two side of the same coin and I think to some degree Yuzu/Javi fits that idea.
 
The Marin hype is so... :shocked::slink: She's a beautiful skater and my favorite junior, maybe even currently skating lady but...wowzers.

Has any other skater had this hype because I don't recall the hyper over Yuzu/Yuna being like this...maybe Mao when she won the senior GPF as a junior skater...
