Yuzuru Hanyu: 2016-17 Season

[sublimeskating]

Him as the strong willed protagonist, brian as his guide, pooh as his long live companion and kikuchi-san as the unreliable warlock? :rofl2: Yes! Following him, watching him grow and challenging himself is exciting and nerve wrecking like a movie. Looking back, I can't imagine my life not knowing him.

I just realized that 2016-17 season is like a movie. It start with a bad competition outcome, he develop little by little and win the GPF but not an absolute win. Then here come the 4CC. Everyone is cheering for him to win but just like in movies he had another "disappointing" ending. Then the final battle is the WC2017. Him being 5th after the short is what makes it more exciting when he win the WC title.

Someone in the Gala thread saw it, I think they were just watching on their TV. It'll probably show up sooner or later.

No? He didn't talk about quints in the next few years during the presser btw, he just mentioned that he was told quints were possible, there is no assigned BV, then passed onto the 4A talk. We all watched that.

I told you, now, about half an hour ago, post the Gala.

Can someone translate what he said, please? https://twitter.com/kottymarusan/status/848529287820922880

ホントやだ。ほんとこんな試合やだ！
"I hate it! I really don't like competitions like this!"
But we don't quite know the context. Maybe he refers to the fact that his main competitors (Javi, Patrick, Nathan) bombed it...who knows?

Yup, it is. And Shoma agreed with him.

But while I understand this, ice is slippery, so a victory is a victory no matter what.

EDIT: Ok, nevermind, the answer was posted right after, lol!

Right before he was saying how scoring above 300 only gets 4th place. So maybe that?
