Milka, right? :agree: I must say, I much prefer Japanese commercials in general, and Yuzu over cows!
The other day, I was at a friend's, and we spent about an hour just randomly watching Japanese commercials on youtube. My cheeks hurt so much from laughing. They're hilarious. I don't understand Japanese, but the style of Asian commercials in general is very, very different from European ones.

Welcome Lillamyrull! I hope you have a lot of fun here with everyone.
I am not sure if I should apologize over that or not considering the calories but it really helps for me so I've thrown caution to the wind. I prefer to keep my nerves and my hair, and do a few more planks
Now you're giving me ideas

I dance, so there is a way to burn those calories
plus, it's only during the season and not every day...On the other hand, turns out i have a Very Important Test on the same day as NHK Trophy (i'm not requiered to pass it but it's a way to get my degree faster). My classmates told me i have a problem because i said i would do both (get up at 2am to watch him skate, go to sleep and then go and take the test lol)
Such is the life of a Hanyu fan
And welcome to Lillamyrull, although i am still a newb myself

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I saw that on the livestream and i wanted to see it closer
I love how he just pops into it, cutie♥
Also, at the end when he was clapping and waving his arms in the air, his arms did look like wings
Tatiana telling another commentator about Yuzu's gift. She sounds so happy

Okay, Dutch Eurosport commentators weren't very talkative (there was no SP airing and the FS only in recap), and a bit repetitive. *shrug*
FS commentary:
They feel Yuzu’s fourth place after the SP is not Yuzuru worthy.
“Orser has made a very difficult free skate for him. Just like in the SP, he’s planned a quad loop, and it doesn’t work out. Quad salchow. Double salchow, triple toeloop, should’ve been the second quad (I guess she meant second quad salchow?), and the toeloop, quad, he hadn’t done that one yet, triple axel, double toe, and from nowhere, triple axel, triple salchow, and the triple lutz.
“Yuzuru Hanyu, well, it’s pretty much the story of every season: he sets his sights very high. They work very very hard in the summer, he’s added a new jump, the quad loop, unbelievably difficult, both in the SP and FS not yet successful. He’s got four quads in his program, and they didn’t all work out yet, and he was rather focused on the technique, but I suspect that when it all comes together, the pieces of the puzzle fit, the presentation also gets better and he will once again be of unheard-of excellence. But for now, there’s work to be done, but he has time, because he will be skating at the final GP at the end of November.”
Gala:
"Yuzuru Hanyu was second here in Skate Canada, and that’s not that strange, because he usually isn’t at his very best at the start of the season. That’s because they have a plan, a plan to again skate world records at the end of the season, and this season Brian Orser has made his programs very difficult (her words, not mine), again more difficult than at last season’s Worlds, and at the start of the season, logically that won’t always work out yet.
"Such a brilliant show program once again by Yuzuru Hanyu, who won the free skate here, but the gap with Patrick Chan was too large. He was fourth in the SP, but he has set his sights high, two quad jumps in the SP including the quad loop, which he has newly added, and also the quad loop in the FS, as well as two quad salchows and a toeloop planned, so really very difficult. This weekend the loop didn’t work out yet, but I predict that will change very soon,. I suspect that later at the GPF, maybe he will already skate a new world record. I respect (not suspect but respect, bit odd choice of words, even in Dutch) that very much, he is so good, and yet every year, they want to become even better. Every time searching for new difficulties."

Well, the hairstyle is not quite what Prince had in the 80's, but Yuzu with curls like a puddle?

Now, as the life-long fan of Brian May the guitarist, I feel offended... but curly hair would look silly on Yuzuru!

Oh, i'm a Brian May fan too (and Steve Harris for that matter) but still... Curly hair :noshake:
I am part of many fandoms. I was there at the height of the Great Harry Potter Shipping Wars, i've seen some nasty things. FS fandom is like frolicking through the park while singing children's songsI was many years in a F1 fandom, trust me, you don't want to have this nasty experience

The guitar would look great with his へ pose
Now i am torn: i love Yuzu's hair the way it is (i have strong opinions about men's hair), but purple hair? I'm curious, i think i would like it

Until FS fandom comes up with something akin to My Immortal (the worst fanfic ever for those who don't know), i will stand by that

Really hard to beat that, but I was on American Idol forum during the Adam Lambert vs. Everybody Else era, that place taught me how to troll. The stuff that went down there had mods working overtime.

Omg, that fanfic.
I remember reading it and wondering what other idiotic stuff the troll author would come up with, so bad it was good.Aaaaand, now I want Yuzu to skate to My Immortal the song. It's a wonderful song. Or Bring Me Back to Life, it's more dynamic. Or a medley of both. Anyone for emo rock Yuzu LP? I bet Finnish audience would eat it up!
