This poster was asked about the different spin positions in the RE_PRAY program Megalovania, and answered in a beautiful, original way:

Honestly, an illusion entry is difficult and rare enough, but who had ever only dreamed of a sit twizzle entry into a spin?
(I think this was a 2020-2021 innovation of Yuzuru Hanyu's in Let Me Entertain You, which led to an abusively invalidated spin at All-Japan National Championships and a big protestation by Figure Skating fans.)

All 3 Notte Stellata 2024 shows will be broadcast in cinemas all over Japan as well as in Taiwan and Hongkong. In Japan the lottery is starting today.
All 3 shows will be also livestreamed by Hulu service details of which are to be announced at a later date.
Fingers crossed they will be made available for international purchase and viewing, too
Here's Yuzuru's message on the show's channel on YouTube

Some kind soul has transcribed, translated and posted the main body of Yuzuru's words during the Saga Re_Pray Day 2 great final.
I really think they are worth being reposted here.

PR video has been posted advertising the upcoming release of Notte Stellata 2023 DVD/Blue Ray planned for 9 February.

Wow, have you seen these photos from Yuzu's Fleeting Dream? Amazing!

Unfortunately, Hulu is only in Japan, so we cannot access it. I too wish an international streaming!

But in fact, this Notte Stellata 2023 broadcast inspired many more fanartists. The program inspiring most fanart, apart from Notte Stellata, seems to be Conquest of Paradise, with of course very different takes:

Here's also fanart inspired by the costume he wore during the Finale; originally made for Believe (Fantasy on Ice 2015), he also wore it to skate Hana wa Saku (hence the chrysanthemum flower in the back of the second picture, I think):

I wouldn't say that Believe is Yuzuru Hanyu's best known, or unforgettable program, but still:

His Stockolm Hana wa Saku, after all the problems that led him to an asthma crisis, and the score robbery that deprived him of one more World Championship Gold Medal:
