Yuzuru Hanyu: 2015-16 Season

Let's keep this Fan Fest thread from bashing other skaters as it is against the Forum guidelines. Thank you!

About something Orser said in the interview caught my eye: that he coaches Jun Hwan Cha. I thought I recognized the name from past seasons so I looked him up and wow, he's like a mini-Yuzu. He resembles young Yuzu so much both in appearance and skating, he's got similar emotional expressiveness to his movement, it's eerie! I like him already, I hope he'll fill the Yuzu-shaped void once Yuzu retires.:luv17:

The pool of talent in Orser's stable is astonishing.

I like Jun Hwan too. He has very nice movement and posture. But he seems a bit slow in upgrading his jumps. Hope he will do better and better in the years to come. Maybe you can check up Kim Yuna Kiss & Cry, a figure skating competition/reality show. He was in the first several episodes, and very cute cooperating with a girl in pair skating.

Slow days counting down to NHK...why don't we play CAPTION THIS??

"I wish I can speak French..."

BTW OT.... I just love his Requiem performance at SC... its mesmerizing!
My favourite moment is the spin at 1:37 min and 3:21min when he lift his face during one pause of the song. The expression is brilliant!

What I love about Yuzu's gala spins are that they are elegant, beautiful and expressive... Hana wa saku, Requiem, FTT

-It doesn't look so much like him...but it's in gold! That's how they will be able to tell.

Aww....I want to visit the rink, how crowded will it be?

Thank you for the info, I'll do that!

I realize that English is not your first language, but you should consider modifying or deleting your post. "Crap" isn't a nice word at all.

I think she knows perfectly well what the word means and it's exactly what she wanted to use.

NHK World News is the fastest to report Hanyu-kun's Ice Rink! (I haven't seen any other TV stations reporting yet.)
Click "Winter Lights" in the video section. It seems the rink is a bit crowded.

When the kids skate, the rink looks prettier

The rink is so tiny! there must be a tiny, tiny zamboni for ice-cleaning time. It's difficult to get any kind of space in Tokyo.

And i realize how childish and arrogant people here are. Very disappointed. I´m out. Bye.

Aww, don't go...a certain amount of disagreement is inevitable on a message board, but I hope you can stick around and still have some fun.

As I cannot find the video, I believed the below under the post is the message he delivered. Anybody can help to translate is much appreciated. Thank you.

「こんにちは、羽生結弦です。僕は今、トロントを拠点として練習をしています。さて、東京駅の目の前にある丸ビルに、僕とコラボレーションした特設スケートリンクがクリスマス期間限定で登場します。このスケートリンクは僕のふるさと、東北の復興支援にもつながっていますので、ぜひ遊びにきてくださいね。今後とも一生懸命がんばりますので、応援よろしくお願いします」
