Shoma Uno: 2014-2024

[moonstruck]

seeing Shoma's smile brings a smile to my own face thanks everyone for sharing updates and all of the lovely photos!

that head tilt really is so cute! :luv17: https://twitter.com/ckckcp/status/1122045943094763520

these might have been posted already but I don't think I've seen the pic of Sho and Mako wearing his Olympic medal before

Mako seems to really admire Shoma! it's great to see how he inspires younger skaters

This has been a day of MANY smiles for all of us! The head tilts are the absolute best. These are some of the old ones, but some day we need to do a complete collection!

The Shoma content train is all "won't stop can't stop" at the moment, today we have TBS airing Stars on Ice with extra backstage footage:

Shoma. Kenshi Yonezu. Lemon.

That's all I have to say. Also: Koshiro being the absolute best kouhai XD

Warning: Itsuki was absolutely right, Shoma has an absolutely endearing yet also terrible singing voice. However as someone who also will sing my favorite songs with 400% full commitment while being super out-of-tune, I say terrible singers unite! Even his voice can't make me not love this clip, he sounds really happy! It's so cute to see how his shyness just went away like that.

Also, the return of Shoko-chan (WIG), with supportive Kanako and Koshiro, while Alina looks bewildered (her "beautiful girl" comment at Shoma cracks me up) in the background:
https://twitter.com/mikufskate_0039/status/1122408923615481856

Remembering how Stars on Ice was directly after Worlds, it's really nice to know Shoma finds ways to still have fun and relax even in an ice show!

Shoma did Great Spirit again for PIW this morning with 4T 3A 3S layout, and did a 3A4T but stepped out for his finale spotlight.

A lot of PIW fan photos have been shared but I want to share my favorite "Shoma shaking a tiny kid's hand" collection of fan photos:
https://twitter.com/1994_wing/status/1122016570941661184

https://twitter.com/momoyuu_999/status/1122413388695425025

He looks so sweet <3 I lost the links but multiple fans who attended PIW have mentioned on Twitter that Shoma took care to look everyone at their eyes and shake their hands, including fans who moved forward just to take photos and/or watch the fureai time, asking "would you like to shake hands?" first. There are some fans who crouched down to take pictures (so that they don't bother other fans who want to give gifts) but Shoma found them, crouched down and shook their hands too :luv17:

 

[Latremu]

Oh my gosh, I love him! He's such an adorable dork. Let's give him some credit- he's not tone deaf, he just can't hit those darn high notes! [emoji28] I also enjoyed how he put on that wig and apparently someone said something about putting on lipstick if he only had the time? Alina with the "beautiful girl" comment [emoji23]. Shoma has come a long way for sure. Keep enjoying yourself, Sho!

Thanks rabidline! Here's the translation about Shoma shaking the hands of the fans even if they're not in the front row. https://twitter.com/Jeffylish_/status/1122390599456268288?s=19

Oh wow there’s so much content, I’m in heaven, thanks to everyone for all the links!

I didn’t listen to him singing yet cause I’m in a public place and I don’t want to scare people off but I can’t wait to
Edit I listened, it’s not that bad, you should hear me lol

MS from SOI with white loco!! Still not in hd but it’s a start

Knowing these 2 nerds, it must be from Jojo, the anime

It's the ending pose from Keiji's SP, Memories!
Apparently Shoma did the pose alone in the morning show, and then for the evening show they posed together when finally leaving the fans.

Thanks for the info rabidline!

There's a thousand and one other pictures! Too cute.

So many gorgeous photos and the gifts WOW, Sho's parents will have to add a room to their house
to fit them all. I probably missed it up thread, did he skate to GS?

 

[Arriba627]

Please, please, can I have a collection of these bears! Aren't they beautiful?! I especially love the Moonlight Shomata black and white one. Thank you to whoever had the patience and talent to do this!

Looking at all these photos, reading people's reports -- this stuff all reminds me why I love this guy so much! His whole demeanor as you watch him interact with people is stellar -- kind, friendly, polite, humble, sweet, considerate, unassuming, kakkoii/kawaii, etc. Please never change Shoma!

Yes he did. https://twitter.com/sn_figure/status/1122125529736335360?s=19

You probably missed it because of all the fan photos plus the videos from the Stars on Ice broadcast.

 

[lariko]

It’s amazing how good Uno makes me feel without going to a show. Just reading about him trying to shake everyone’s hands and catch their eyes, and all these pics - it just feels like he wants the whole world to celebrate how fun figure skating is. And it feels like he does it not because he has been given a clever advice, but from the heart my feed invariably puts a smile on my face. We so need more people like this in the world.

 

[asyuraniel]

Its look like no one post Itsuki twitter yet. Its interesting as he post Uno family crest.
https://twitter.com/jumokuno0108/status/1122469355592110084

At first i tought the crest is just for Uno family, maybe rare or not much information; but surprise me when i see it as one of the design in wikipedia 'Mon' page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mon_(emblem)) . Googling that image make me much more excited.
1. There is an on online shop that actually sell that design for T-shirt and Hoodie. https://teesoflegend.com/shop/kaon-designs/crossing-hawk-feathers-kamon-the-hoodies
2. The is a blog page that tell the about the emblem history. https://tenryuenglish.wordpress.com/2012/09/11/kamon/
3. Its the emlem used by Asano lord for 47 ronin!!! Never knew that!! :shocked: anyone that do not know about that can search movie 47 ronin. Its epic.

Anyway, i just excited now. :luv17:

Ohh, Itsuki twitter caption summary most likely have been translated in twitter of instagram. But if anyone want translation; https://www.instagram.com/p/BwzHEtlnc1K/

Shoma did Grespi again for today's show, both morning and afternoon.
Not sure about the afternoon show but he did 3A 3A 3ST for the morning show, and attempted 3A4T in the finale, but fell.
https://twitter.com/v44_0g/status/1122728889761943552

After the morning show, Shoma, Keiji and a PIW skater helped Sota with his gifts and they did Keiji's SP ending pose together (this is probably a running joke, similar to last year where the PIW guest skaters did Tatsuki's EX ending pose for photos):
https://twitter.com/1994_wing/status/1122764608685531137

https://twitter.com/evitoyagi/status/1122748901004472320

After the afternoon show, "new intern" Shoma joins the PIW staff to help collecting Marin's and Sota's gifts XD He's drowning in that giant black coat! He's too adorable for words.
Keiji and Marin later joined him to wear the same coats and skated around helping other skaters.

The make up looks far heavier on the pics this morning.

Also, more falls on 3A4T, ouch... poor Uno. I am now scared. :sad21:

 

[Latremu]

Finally! I've been waiting for the white makeup pics ever since I saw reports of it is this morning and saw traces of it in pictures like this:

He looks like a raccoon in some of these pictures. (Raccoons are cute, but scary fierce.)
This poster said that Shoma looks like He was punched. [emoji38] https://twitter.com/tokyo1005/status/1122733389084127233?s=19

Is that make-up for real? That looks a bit scary

I was more impressed by a post examining kabuki influences within a few hours. I am counting down minutes till someone examines the zombie influences in the light of the Game of Thrones. Never change, Internet. :agree:
