Yuzuru Hanyu: 2015-16 Season

[ahkeekee]

They wanted to see his long arms and legs so they asked him to reach for the paper doll on the display and they asked him to do it in a beautiful way. Inocchi suggested that a beautiful pose would be Yuzuru reaching with his right arm while extending his left leg. They then asked him to repeat it by returning the paper doll to the display.

Thanks for explaining!!! I never understood what was going on until reading your explanation!!

Just in the process of watching the Asaichi interview now; while I can't understand it 100%, I still gained a lot of new insights into his life! Hopefully what I heard is right, because he said he has been told that he sleeps with his left eye open?? :shocked: Don't think I've heard of that one before!

He also said that when he talks a lot, that means he is nervous; there were quite few accounts of him talking non-stop right to others before right?

This is also the first time I've heard Sarah Alaine speaks. Very surprised that she has such a deep speaking voice compare to her high singing voice!

Actually a lot of soprano singers I know have a deep voice!

 

[firal]

Oh and I just remember that I want to ask one question to our Japanese-speaking friends: did he say he was traumatized eating "paprika" oversea on a burger thinking it was his favorite, tomato? Do Japanese "paprika" equal red bell peppers in the Western culture? Because he also said he likes green peppers, right? Just a little confused since I thought paprika is a spice...

You seem to get the contents in Japanese. Yeah, we all are surprised he sleeps with his left eye open! Also he said his many talks showed his tension. And sorry, I can't get what you mean by this boldt sentense (help me, please)

Japanese image of paprika (in English: BellPepper?)
It's as big as fist, and juicy.

In America at least paprika is what we call the dry spice powder, we'd call the fresh pepper a bell peper.

Sorry, it is my typing mistake! Don't worry! Thanks for answering my questions

 

[ahkeekee]

Thanks for the explanation too!!! My Japanese is really quite non existent so I couldn't really understand what they're saying coz they're speaking too fast for me to catch up!!

 

[dasani]

First a big thank you for all the translations on the awesome Asaichi show!

Thanks for the explanation. I was a bit confused by the term paprika too, so my initial thought was poor thing bite into a burger with spicy red pepper when he thought it's his favourite tomato. (He did also mention the sweetness of the paprika too but my listening was a bit slow and didn't catch that the first round )

So it turns out it's the bell pepper that gave him this shock! It's funny how he seems to be easily "intimidated" by food, as he has also commented the huge meat portion in the Western cuisine scares him a bit haha.

JHe also said that when he talks a lot, that means he is nervous; there were quite few accounts of him talking non-stop right to others before right?

I was thinking of Noriaki Kasai san's comment on Yuzu when they were at that the Imperial Garden Party last spring, that Yuzu just kept asking him questions non-stop, wonder if it's because he was actually as nervous as Kasai-san

But it seems Yuzu is quite talkative when he's in a good mood too! So maybe he's just chatty in general, when he's nervous and when he's NOT nervous.

Just in the process of watching the Asaichi interview now; while I can't understand it 100%, I still gained a lot of new insights into his life! Hopefully what I heard is right, because he said he has been told that he sleeps with his left eye open?? :shocked: Don't think I've heard of that one before!

In the past two days we've found out something new about his ears and left eye, I wonder what comes next? Maybe we'll get a nose story soon

Part of Kenji's comment about earphones or so was interesting.
“He collects earphones, and a large amount of knowledge surprise me. He explains about earphones happily. When I can’t understand some of his explanation, he continues referring to examples until I get it totally. That’s where his earnest and gentle personality is shown. You may be impressed with his determined spirit, but on the other hand, he is very punctual and prudent and deliberate. This leads to the achievement in his practice, which gives him more confidence.”

Speaking of earphones, I couldn't help but laugh when the Asaichi staff brought out his earphones, he immediately rearranged the earbuds to show us the personalized Y logos. Maybe this also has to do with his pretty hands but as he was doing this, it totally reminds me of women showing off their jewelries on display. I guess....in a way, his earphones are his jewelries

The detail of the part
(Tuzuki)
Those days, there were several naughty boys of his training mates older than him by one year. They often fought against yuzu. He bore without crying, and sometimes fought back. He really had hate-to-lose spirit.
(yuzu)
It seemed they didn’t feel like seniors. My thought was I would never lose to them.

Thank you hamaguri! What a brave boy! So it was not him who was looking for a fight. Poor Yuzu. I wonder what these children think of it now when he's OC.

The correct answer was ピーマン　piman (small green pepper)

But the student answered パプリカ papurika in katakana letters (big bell pepper), and got "incorrect".

Tweet: Then, teacher, could you please write the picture of PAPURIKA?

Very cute Yuzuru eating paprika (papurika) burger thinking it was tomato.

Oh my!!!! What a cute fan art !!! I can't understand the last two columns though...

Thanks for the explanation! It indeed looked graceful haha.

I like those shoes. Does anyone know if it's an expensive brand, or just a "normal" one?

Oh goodness, this face with such big eyes, LOL! I'll look at the videos whenever I can.

I can do it too, but I wonder if it's because I have long limbs myself (being 178cm tall, it must be that).

Is this TV show the last one Yuzu had? Meaning he'll go back to Toronto soon? I think Javi's camp ends on August 29th, so the coaches will be there too at his return.

Hush Puppies shoes can be expensive but it's so comfortable to wear

I don't think it's tall ppl thing, I'm below 160 but I can do it too. I guess it's just my long arms (I also have long legs, longer compared to my torso).

I have no idea about his schedule but I assume so.

His mental coach (Pooh) is very sweet (indulgent) with Yuzuru (without forcing him to correct his picky eating).

"I'll eat that paprika for you."

"Thank you Pooh!"



Everyone becomes indulgent with Yuzuru

EDIT: Yuzuru said he is OK with Piman (small green pepper), by the way. Children in Japan usually do not like Piman either, so I don't think Yuzuru is so picky eater, just in this case.

I see!! Thank you for translating it!!

 

[yuzuplease]

i just finished watching asaichi and omg. i was gasping for air when he was making a terrarium. his hands are so beautiful and delicate yet manly at the same time like uuuugh :hopelessness:

i just really really like his hands

thanks to everyone who provided translations! i hope a kind soul subs the whole show someday lol

 

[daisy616]

I was looking forward to seeing Asaichi so much for days, and
it has turned out to be even more wonderful than I had expected
Thank you NHK, thank you Udoh-san and Inocchi

My favorite part is Yuzu's doing terrarium. It wasn't planned, and
Inocchi suddenly invited Yuzu to join them. It's so nice to see an instructor lady
was exited and said like, "Really?! Hanyu-kun will join us?? Now, I'm so nervous!"
Then Inocchi said,"What?! You are never nervous with me!" So funny.
Yuzu was very keen and careful in doing everything and very neat. Yes, his hands are beautiful!
Yet, he was somewhat clumsy when putting the plants in the pot.
After some mess, Domo-kun doll was dropped　in, and a caption appeared on TV screen:
"Domo-kun Terrarium - made by Yuzuru Hanyu." Yuzu said, "Even a caption is prepared?!"
Others answered," No, no, we've just made it!"

The whole show is very hilarious, fun and nicely organized to show Yuzu's personality to viewers.
I hope the subs will be made so that everybody understand all the things Yuzu talked about because
they were just great and fun to heararty:

BTW, Yuzu said he watches Asaichi(Morning Market) on NHK World Premium everyday in Toronto.

And this is a blog of the other lady(NHK's announcer) in terrarium section:http://ameblo.jp/komatae/entry-12066919174.html
She highly praises Yuzu for his thoughtfulness and politeness.

Thanks. I'm glad I know about paprika, which I totally saw as bell pepper.

But it seems Yuzu is quite talkative when he's in a good mood too! So maybe he's just chatty in general, when he's nervous and when he's NOT nervous.

Nobu says he talks like a machine gun between them!:yes:
Yeah, his tone of voice sounds a bit boasthul in front of his lovely earphones!. Very cute!

Thank you hamaguri! What a brave boy! So it was not him who was looking for a fight. Poor Yuzu. I wonder what these children think of it now when he's OC.

At the coc collision live air, when yuzu was ready to skate in our worry, nobu commented something like he was such a type of person that he would never sullender, submit to nothing. I remembered that.
