Yuzuru Hanyu: 2018-2019

[Katie J]

The Russian Lady journalist: Money creates envy. Success creates envy. The normal reacton. Forget it.

Hi again!
The only thing I want to say - madame Ellen Voytzehovskaya hates Yuzu. And Jenny as well. She hates only outstanding sportsmen, so it means they are legends.
We have the fk commentator in Russia as well, who hates Yuzu too and always tries to say something dirty and unpolite about his costumes, manner, and even Yuzuru's thoughts! God bless TAT she always makes this donkey shut up.

 

[myself]

On a sad note: just read a part of an article from that umm, Russian lady journalist in which she suggests that Yuzu is still competing only because Japanese TV is paying him a lot of money for that. Where did she get that from? (Source, Russian: https://rsport.ria.ru/blog_rian/20180921/1142257643.html)

Suuuure, it's all about the cash. Meanwhile Yuzu donated all his OG winnings, cuz he loves money so much. LMAO

 

[Reth]

See, she got an invitation to come to ACI from BOrser after Russian open skates and this is what she comes with. I just don't have any respect to her anymore.

She got an invitation from Yuzu coach himself and still make nasty remarks about him? What a B.
Does Brian even know what kind of person she is? Does even know about Doug who uses his name to start rumors?

Onotal looks WONDERFUL! I especially love the tinkling part in the middle of it. That step sequence is gorgeous.

ALL THE SUPERLATIVES!

I’m back, barely awake but ready to cheer for Yuzu!

 

[myself]

Sorry testing. i just tried to post twice and its not turning up???

Edit: Of course it works NOW.

 

[Watch]

Just watched his run through of Otonal and I'm in so much awe of his insane charisma on the ice. Even when he leaves out the choreo and is just skating around, waiting for when he wants to pick it up again, he does it with so much confidence and grace that it's simply mesmerising. And the program looks incredible. I'm so taken
Thank you for staying with us for at least another season, Yuzuru!

 

[myself]

I loved that there was an announcement about spectators not leaving behind any possessions when they go, that was then repeated in JAPANESE (as opposed to just the usual English & French).

Sounds like Yuzuru's fans were leaving their banners up for the duration.

I'm hoping for perfect sp today, I want to see the score

 

[matmuh]

GS is back! (at least for me ) this was a very good 1st outing apart from spins curious to see the protocols and PCS, costume would look better if front of the belly? part was a bit longer but could have been worse so i am okay with it

 

[Interspectator]

Not perfect bet very good.

We couldn't freak out over the costume because the servers went down, but what do you-all think?

I like it.

 

[HanDomi]

one of spins got invalidated, but landed stuff with beatifull quad sal, still score seems at least interesting.... let's wait for protocols

 

[giulia95]

“Otonal” now belongs to Yuzu-kun. Magnificent season debut from Olympic Champion Yuzuru Hanyu. He scored 97.74. Wonderful costume, softness, style, transitions & heart. Excellent work @J_Butt!

[JuliettaG]

The PCS are too low Like I don't think that the spins affected the performance It was a nice program...
