Yuzuru Hanyu: 2014-15 Season

What kind of clothes is Yuzuru´s doll wearing in the video?

Whoops the bow is here lol. The video I linked there was a video of Yuzuru and Mao versioned Hina Dolls. They're the Emperor and Empresses :biggrin:

*These authentic dolls are very expensive, usually ranging in the thousands (each one) and are passed down from generation to generation.

Hi, also my first time posting on the thread despite checking in everyday since sometime this summer :)

I translated the Sochi FS by the French-Canadian commentaters! (Thank you Terrapin, I had no idea Radio-Canada covered the event! :dance:)
Just a few things though, anything between ((double brackets)) are just notes I added and anything in [these] are implied words. Enjoy!
thanks chumelon!! :cheer: thanks for translation. still no news from him right? i think they sneak him out of the hospital :laugh: i also wonder if worlds is gonna be his last competition this year or he might join WTT ? considering he didnt compete a lot this season :confused:
 

I agree with the ranking of commercials. As we wait for Yuzu to recover, let's play rank the commercials!
For me:
Love in Action
Amino Vital
Monster Hunter
Ghana Chocolate
Xylitol White

Bonus: I'm so happy he's signed some kind of deal with Phiten...He looks great in their Jewelry and now he can get his lucky necklaces for free! (as he said himself, he's a ball of superstition:biggrin:)

Next Commercial Please: a music/earphone commercial would be spectacular.
 
Can Japanese posters please help me with this information: i've read some where saying when Yuzuru was still in high school he got All 5 or something like that. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B7qamj6CIAAd74M.jpg:large
I don't know much about Japanese school system so I can't tell for sure. But it seems All 5 is a good result in high school? I know it's a school for young athletes so the standard might not be too high. But it's good to know he and his family value education that much.
 
Can anyone tell me what Ghana chocolate tastes like? I don't know if they're in the USA or not.
I've tasted the red ghana one. I liked it but I also found it to be on the sweet side. But unlike other chocolate bars , the ghana bars are thinner..much like the Lindt bars. You may find them in some East Asian grocery stores. I found mine in a Japanese shop in Chinatown.

Cool game :laugh: for me:
1. Amino vital
2. Love in action
3. Monster Hunter
4. Ghana chocolate
5. Xylitol white :hopelessness:
Ps: I also vote for an earphone commercial ^^
 
Apparently Han Yan was "informed" by fans about his and Yuzuru's pictures when they were novice that surfaced recently and he commented on it.:laugh:
https://twitter.com/Chiyochiyoyo/status/557141895592173568

He said "Since I was a kid, I looks best if I was in shirt and he(Yuzuru) somehow seems to prefer frills since he was kid. haha"

Quick correction, "Since I was a kid I wore a vest and shirt..." :biggrin:
B and V are written the same in Japan. In this case, I think vest is meant.

...and I think we have a new winner in the 'Hanyu's ugliest costume' contest. It's neck-and-neck with the vertigo shiny-pants, but it just might win gold! :hopelessness:

I am wondering about his 4S. His struggling with it is nothing new. But I had hoped he would mastered it this season.:sarcasm:

It's just what went right at GPF with his 4S? I think he might have figured it out at GPF, about how to do a good 4S. Then why couldn't he apply it at Nationals. Cause it went wrong at Nationals again (like he didn't land the 4S even in practice).

I think, except the 4S, all of his technical problems are not chronic and can be fixed easily once his mind has figured out how to. Like the 3lz at Nationals when he landed the 2 beautiful lutz in his free just the day after the SP with the bad combo. Even his Flip has gotten somewhat better edge than last season (just flat edge, not wrong edge anymore).

Still... What's the problem with the 4S? Maybe in this case it's still too soon to say that he couldn't master the 4S. I hope it was because he lacked proper practice/ did not have enough training time due to fatigue and injuries. Since he didn't do many jumps and other elements in the practice video at Nationals as I have seen from the TV reports (like he only had 50 minutes on ice per day).

Or should he change the layout and use the 4lo next season? I hope he can put an end to the chronic 4S all together.

I was at the FS practice session on the day of the FS for GPF last month, and iirc Yuzu did not manage a 4S only until his music started (mostly popping into a 2S). So I would have to say his 4S is still rather inconsistent at this point in time.

Edit: His 4T was quite inconsistent as well. Watching back my videos on his attempts for 4T & 4S: 4T ok, 1T, 2T, 4T really forward; 1S, 2S, 2S, 4S step-out, 2S.
So I was really surprised that his run-through went so well, and better even, the actual skate :)

Yuzu had a history of being a very quick learner and his trajectory of talent was amazingly uninterrupted even in very adverse circumstances , he performed 60 summer ice shows to train his Etude SP and R&J1 FS in 2011-2012 eartquake season… In my mind spontaneously there's the idea that his former coach would fix the 4S, she never failed to teach him jumps, she never failed to raise the bar higher and higher ….:)

Yes, 5 is the highest grade you can receive. Same as getting straight A's.
 
I think he is very proud of the fact that he look rather good in frills compare to other men...:biggrin:
