Yuzuru Hanyu: 2016-17 Season

[Leanna A]

Just watched an edited version of the previous blood donation CM, very charming and touching. I’ve learnt the several important and useful Japanese phrases spoken by Yuzu and the children. Yuzu’s ways of speaking the phrases and those smiles…:luv17:

Just watched a new version of the previous blood donation CM, very charming and touching.

I don't think it's all that new I have a copy of that one from 2015.
But I agree, it's very sweet :luv17:

Pamigena:
Thanks for your reminder. Though I know the CM is not new, I use ‘new’ as it is with English subtitles for the phrases Yuzu and the children say and the song. In order not to cause confusion, I changed ‘new’ to ‘edited’.

 

[Pamigena]

I see :agree: I thought you actually meant it was a new CM (and since some of us are a little desperate for anything new, well... )

Anything about Yuzuru is so delicious and fun! No matter how much time It is repeated, it brings me something NEW all the time! I welcome any old or new videos or topics!

I have been home sick with the flu for the past few days so to occupy my time ( and with nil energy), I decided to watch yuzu's long programs in a row from 2011 until now. We all know the programs, have all done that many times, but it has been a long time for me. What an evolution. The last couple of years have been improvements by leaps and bounds compared to the years of ND to POTO. It seems like he has taken ownership of his programs now in a different way than before... maybe it is the music choices....

Feel better, liv!

POTO is fairly recent, and I believe he pushed strongly for that XD. Team Japan that year was like Team Broadway. I agree the music choices have been vastly improved (for me at least) since last season. SP, FS, EX have all been home runs. I rewatched Hope & Legacy, especially in NHK Trophy, I'm excited for a clean version soon. If nothing else, I need one that I can just watch over and over again and be engrossed in.

In this news drought, I've become obsessed with his hands
At off-ice practice in Autumn Classic this year, at 9s

Ahhhhhh and this! What are they doing!? I'm guessing this is NHK 2016

Was this posted? He did 4T3T3T-3A, clean. :clapper: This was during GPF.

I love that shirt on him! Looks better than his Elsa costume he later used IMO, why did he change it :luv17: And he looks like such a gentleman helping Sarah on the ice haha and so damn attractive

I saw that jump from other fancams/other angles, I think. But this was the closest so far Thanks!

Get better soon!
I've been been sick with sore throat for three weeks now (I already feel better *knock knock*) and I've also decided to rewatch all of his senior programs, every competition. NHK 2014 is next. The evolution is really big, even between RJ2 and POTO :eeking: I remember I've discussed with fs fans, and even non Yuzuru fans were satisfied how his PCS has improved since the Olympic season. The improvement is more visible with Seimei and especially Hope&Legacy in my opinion. He looks more focused and controlled, and he is much stronger physically than he was 3-4 seasons ago. He has even more connection to the audience now, and his skating is more delicate, precise and mature, too.

Actually this should be from Skate Canada.

I think it's WTT 2015 since you can start reading the word "World" on the boards

Thanks guys, for the get better wishes. It always feels like someone rolls you up into a ball and decides to kick you around for a bit!! You get better too, sallycinnamon

And yes, the difference in the skating is huge after he won the Olympics. I know POTO was his music choice, and he was sooo much stronger as a skater that year, but the jump from that to Seimei was even greater. I think physical maturity and confidence of having won the Olys are a factor too, even though he didn't have the long program of his dreams. Before that there was this frailty, now it's like he has an aura of invincibility, even though he is making errors. Kurt has mentioned that every time he steps on the ice it's like he commands your attention and that is so true. It's just so different from before and I think the growth could be even greater as time goes on.

I think he can do anything as long as he believes in himself! Though I sometimes get nervous when I see an additional/new ritual, makes me wonder if he's gotten more nervous. (Which, anyone would, if you had all three world records under your name... but he's really dealt with the pressure admirably) :think:
