Shoma Uno

The Colantotte event seem to be very lively! There were reports of anecdotes everywhere but here's the tidbits I caught:

- The first guest was Itsuki, the Uno brothers haven't met each other in a while (Shoma checks on him between months now). They bantered about Shoma's favorite meat cut and Itsuki roasted Shoma for playing games in his room in the past and taking away his charger plug because Shoma's own is broken 🤣

- The guest skaters shared untold stories about Shoma:

1. Kazuki said when they were young Shoma used to call him "Tomoki-kun" mixing up his first and last name 🤣 this connected to how Shoma saved Kazuki's email the first time: Tomoki the Guitar Player (because Kazuki had a guitar playing choreo). Kazuki sometimes worry that Shoma gets injured before important competitions, but if Shoma said he'll do it then Kazuki saw Shoma will do it 5x more than what he said, he's just like that.

2. Sota once got locked on a hotel balcony by Shoma as a prank when they were young 🤣 also the story of how Sota got an advisory contract with Colantotte: so Sota forgot his necklace at Cup of China 2024 and Shoma lent him his Colantotte necklace when he performed his EX "Teeth" . Since then Shoma kept pushing him to be supported by Colantotte and here he is now 😅 Sota fans also said that Sota has been sharing that he's wearing Colantotte in his Unlim membership streams.

3. Koshiro asked Shoma to stop extending their gaming after Shoma himself said "this is the last time for today" 🤣 he kept doing that and Koshiro said once they kept playing for 2 hours since Shoma said this is the last time.

4. Rio was so, so sweet and asked Shoma to not forget him after he retired. Rio has been a big fan of Shoma since he was in elementary school and skated on the same ice together, and he wishes that he can skate with Shoma in future ice shows... hopefully Colantotte ice shows? 🥺 Shoma hugged him a bit after. He was very shy and seem pretty moved, while the other 4 were roasting each other.



Also after the event Shoma, Koshiro and Sota visited UNO1 Cafe and hung out:

 
I have a different take on NHK Trophy: I think Shoma said that because he will remember the competition as the time he can make Stephane very, very happy with his skates. And Stephane was happy and was very appreciative and emotional, we all know that. In a season where Shoma struggled with competitive motivation I think he chose to remember that moment as a happy one, so no, I don't think he's trolling.

I think he genuinely chose that event as a happy one as well, because he skated as well as he possibly could at that event, even though the judges had different opinions. It seems like he received a lot of support from his fans there too, I remember tearing up when I heard fans on the livestream shouting "Shoma!" just after the medal ceremony. 😢
 
Don't know why I forgot to follow the uno1cafe on Instagram! If you haven't followed it yet, there's lots of cool stuff! I want one of those coffee cups with the dog! He should sell them! Best of luck to Tree in his new endeavors! I nominate him for best brother ever! :ghug::console: BTW I met him twice. He is so very, very nice. I think it runs in the family.

Lol, I can't believe there's lacinato kale in this flower bouquet, this is definitely an instance of trolling. 🤣

Not to me. That was a slap in the face that left everyone bewildered and Stephane justifiably angry.
Hey, I share your opinion as well, it's not one of  my memorable Shoma moments. I remember that as the first time I cried into my Shoma banner...

But Shoma was there, and not me, so I see how he could have a different take on things. He was there to receive Stéphane's kindness and praise and potentially gain motivation from it...

(There is a part of me that wonders whether his retirement was partially to spare us fans from more incidents like what happened at NHK...)
 
damn.. i cannot see since i am not on X... i don't remember white loco but would love to see it ;)
Here we go! Such a beautiful costume that it prompted some to say :"Justice for White Loco!" Wish he would wear it in a future ice show. That one and purple Shoboe. I also would LOVE to know what he paid for those Shoboe costumes -- 2 of them no less. Since they charge by the bead / sequin, they have to have been rather pricey. I remember someone saying "I could maybe afford one sleeve, if that!" It costs to be the best dressed! Worth every penny in my book.

Not quite sure what you mean by this. Is it to show his love of vegetables (tongue in cheek)? Kale isn't my thing, so I don't even know what it looks like (in plant form).

Adding -- Yes, I have seen it in salads.

Yes, it's kale. Kale is a vegetable. A vegetable Shoma probably doesn't like but will gladly give to his little brother anyway. 🤣

Edit: I actually enjoy that type of kale, by the way. It's the other commonly sold type of kale that I don't like as much. It helps if you avoid eating the fibrous stems of the kale. 🙂 I'm actually glad this discussion turned towards the merits of kale. 🙂
 
To summarize my opinions about kale:

This kale doesn't taste great. It's called curly kale and it's rather bitter. Shoma probably doesn't like it.

This kale tastes great! It's called lacinato or dinosaur kale. It's nowhere near as bitter as the curly kale! Shoma probably probably doesn't like it either, but I really hope he gives it a chance sometime...

More news from the Uno Cafe. A fan, Uzi, went to the cafe and posted photos of the food and an upstairs surprise! Seems there is a lot of Shoma memorabilia in the upstairs loft. Wow. What an incentive to go there!

Thank you uzi for sharing! All photos belong to this poster.
 
Happy Mother's Day to Mother Uno. Thank you for believing in your son, for your unwavering support, for turning your life upside down to travel all over the world to his competitions, for accompanying him to Switzerland. For me, this Unowan video was one of the most emotional -- Mother Uno in the yard hugging the moffs shortly after Sho's first Worlds win. I'm sure this felt like the culmination of all her hard work. I'm sure there were tears. :ghug::console:

Very cool.photos. Thx for posting. I deleted my post of the upstairs. I didn't realize I was duplicating your post. Love the floral arrangement that was sent by Mai and Mao Asada! The upstairs is amazing!!!
