1 PCS difference. I laugh and I cry at the same time.

The program looks like it has improved/changed since JNats. Laughing at Yuzu rolling his eyes at a 106. Stay hungry, Yuzu. He was fantastic.

I'm wondering - if he goes to WTT, if he'll give it a go there. Or wait till his first competitions next year.

Nice skate from Yuzu as usual overall. Though I thought this performance lacked fire compared to nationals. Probably because the lack of audience?

Now that would be a good, safe first outing for it! (If he thinks it's competition ready)
I was a nervous wreck during the livestream, so definitely enjoying the replays with the pressure off

He was asked about the Olympics and he said he didn't actually think about the Olympics. I hope that everybody can see that he doesn't want 3rd Olympics

I still think he is mainly here to secure the sports for the Olympics, not necessarily for himself, and to give his fans joy. Whether he goes to Beijing... is still in the lap of one particular god. He's probably just getting tired of being asked.

Honda talked about Yuzuru's SP in TV show today.
(comments on the elements watching the video)
4S--There were judges who didn't give him (much)+GOE because he landed bending forward a little.
4T3T--It was the jump of high quality that should/could have gotten more +GOE.
3A--Amazing.
(brief summary)
Yuzuru was doing the spin very carefully counting the number of the rotation during the performance and also in the practice because it got 0 point in Japanese nationals. Honda thought they were high qualitied (I am not sure if Honda was talking about the spins or whole performance, but I assume he meant the whole performance) and should/could have gotten more +GOE, he noticed Yuzuru was "hmmm?" expression in K&C seeing the score of 106. Honda also had the impression that he should/could have had a little higher PCS score.
Honda also talked about Nathan's performance and score, but probably other fans will translate it in other place (it is in the twitter thread I posted). I personally agree with him and I would appreciate it more if he made those comments (including the comments about Yuzuru I translated above) during the live broadcast, not in the TV show. But thank you, Honda-san. (please note that Japanese commentators don't state their opinions about the judges very frankly.)
