[yude]

At one shop selling the rubber bands, more than 600 people lined up before it opens. Look at the queue

Wow, 240 kg of rice! If at 5kg a month, can last 4 years. My small family cant finish 5kg rice in a month. Its only Yuzu and his mum in Toronto.

Somehow, I'm imagining the young Japanese skater who trains at TCC and Boyang Jin having lots of free rice to eat at Toronto.
Lol

I would imagine Yuzu’s relatives and neighbours will benefit from that, new rice... I want to try as well, it’s so expensive

"Our star of hope, Yuzuru Hanyu from Sendai" at the stadium where football game has been taken place :luv17:

The whole town is excited can’t wait for tomorrow. Whoever is going please stay safe and drink a lot of water.

A fan from China has brought a hand made costume to wear as well.

The road is not going to be closed off till noon tomorrow, so the police might try to move them on. It could be dangerous. Be careful guys.

Seimei costume is beautiful! And she said she found a job in Japan :thumbsup: I've seen several reports said that English and Chinese could be heard in Sendai right now because many people came from overseas. Yuzuru is the best tourism ambassador

Yes, waiting at the sidewalk is prohibited so police or security people will come I guess, and Yuzuru will be worried of them if he knows it. I hope they will have good rest at the hotels and come back fighting tomorrow

Yes, you can't have people sleeping so near where cars are passing. It's too risky.

Good morning, guys. It's before 6 am on Sunday in Japan and I've woken up for...nothing I'm just so excited for today even though I'll be watching it at home.

Now TV Asahi has just showed Sendai, there are many people waiting already...it's 5:55 in the morning

 

[yude]

The information was added by Miyagi TV, it said they would show Yuzuru's face and moves closely and the angle would be different than other streams. Their stream starts around 1 PM. So if we want to see the parade in the whole scale, preparing another stream might be good option.

I'm really sad that I'm going to miss this. But have fun watching everyone.

Can we create a new thread for 2018-2019 season instead of combining it with 2017-2018? 2017-2018 was such a special season that it deserves a standalone thread.

There were so many requests for this thread to continue that the site admin decided to let it continue. Now there are requests to cut it at the end of the season like before.
It's impossible to please everyone, but how about we put a bookmark on the Opening Post for the beginning of the next season so people know which page the new season starts at? That way it will at look uniform. We can discuss more details when July comes.

You're the best Interspectator. I just want to say that either way I really appreciate you created this thread :agree:

Its Yuzu day everyone.
Its a good day.

Oh, thank you; but I'm just managing opening post now...I think the original, very first Yuzu thread was started by chloepoco, way back in 2009. Years before I joined the site.

Back to the parade news! https://twitter.com/miso_sazai_/status/987799973373755392 there are already about 1000 people on the sidewalk waiting for the parade. I feel like telling everyone to wear their hats. If they are going to stand out in the sun for 5 hours, wear a hat! I'm just very sensitive to sunlight. Even better, a sun umbrella, to shade you and a fellow fan.

 

[cruzceleste]

Thank you for the updates, hope everyone have a great time at n Sendai today

 

[mresundance]

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forums and just wanted to say "hello". I've been a figure skating fan for about two years now and my introduction to Yuzu was in the 2016 GPF. His beautiful skating and charming personality won me over.

I hope the parade went well today.

I saw this and thought I'd share it with other people who would appreciate it. It's a fanvideo that someone put together. It's as ethereal and beautiful as Yuzu is, and I think it's a lovely ode to him in many ways. I hope you enjoy! https://youtu.be/tsNeMzeDZSo

We should all be mindful of the sun especially being out in it for such an extended period of time.

I wonder how hanyuconomy will help raise the sales of hats, umbrellas, sunscreen and bottled water in Sendai.
