OH, god, I miss his 3A so much
He said: next time when we meet, I should be able to jump, and he did :luv17:

I'm seeing Brian at the Cricket Club. He's giving a tour of the skating rink. They are showing the winners panels and we can see Yuzu's 2018 plaque!

In Brian's office there's a stack of Yuzu fan mail. https://twitter.com/anjaheyheyhey/status/999956440931586048

The the acting is so over the top...as is expected from these kinds of things.

They were showing Yuzu's first practice at Sochi and his single jumps and his final Triple Axel. thinking of his triple axel he just landed now, there are such feels.

There isn't a lot of new information here, but it's a nice summary of the Olympics and a talk with Brian about what Yuzu's 3 strategies for off-ice mental conditioning were.

So pretty *-*

He looks great! And I mean that for both his appearance and health, above all, he looks happy!

And yay~ our beauty of a 3A is back!!

ETA: Is it just me or Yuzu looks like he has been buffing up

As usual, the fashion sense of FaOI is very... special and ... otherworldly, but Yuzu look like someone walk out from a sci-fi. That’s a new breed, I am exiting to see more pics

What has Yuzu done with his finger nails?! :shocked: Did he lose a bet?

Looks like bandaids for when you do a catchfoot or beilman and nick your fingers?

https://twitter.com/chimay0099/status/999961782172045313 for the opening number Pieces of a Dream Yuzu did a solo bit of dancing too.

The girls got a hold of him and managed to paint two of his nails before he ran off

In the Opening Hanyu did a back counter 3A and a longish collaboration with CHEMISTRY for the Opening Number, his facial expressions, shoulders and upper body movement was good, you can't take your eyes off of him. Also, the Ina Bauer exposed his mid-rif to the front audience.

He skated with Caro and Nobu during the intro

I've decided I like the costume (on Yuzu - have yet to see it on anyone else, and I'm not sure I can imagine it). But I am dying even more to know what he's going to wear in his programs next year... and the reactions they'll get.

 

[Yatagarasu]

And more ....

Putting aside my Yuzu bias which makes me think he looks good in just about anything, I think this year's costumes do manage to look good on a selective few like Tessa and Caro who have the sass, poise and beauty to carry such outfits.

But in general, FAOI's costume design is just as atrocious as has always been. They have such a bizarre sense of how fantasy has to look like, but whom am I to judge I guess.

New program, he skated to a Chemistry song.

I see the word frilly on twitter.
