Yamagata is still in Tohoku right? Are those cherries like a special product there?
And any news if Yuzu is in Kobe now? Another show will start soon its so exciting.
 
For some reason this week the wait felt long, maybe because we didn't get a broadcast like last week. I look forward to what FaOi comes up with for the opening and ending costumes XD and the Makuhari broadcast this weekend (I hope they give us a different angle, the last broadcast angle wasn't too good being shot from the bottom up the whole time almost)

I am watching this short video clip of Toshl in his blog over and over again. :luv17: He is almost singing opening Yuzuru's gift :laugh:

"Today, look at this, his hand-written message. "Toshl-san, I hope you'll like it! Best regards. From Hanyu." Skating boots, how lovely!!"

"What is this? What is this? I am opening it. This is important (patting Yuzuru's memo)."

"Even ripping paper like this is precious. The present from Yuzu. Jajajajajan, Pon!! WOW! YAMAGATA NO SA.KU.RA.N.BO (cherries of Yamagata). Whaaatt? Surprising, I thought this would be something from Sendai. It's Yamagata's."

Yuzuru's signature is sooo cute with the tiny skating boot.

Kobe fantasy on ice is coming up soon!
I did a pen-sketch of Crystal memories while we wait for the weekend. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D8Sg70oVsAEiKJ1.jpg

Wow that is fantastic. Now seeing you draw a sword in his hand, I wish to see Yuzu actually lift a sword at the end of the program (he should get someone to mould a sword for him, which he can place on the ice and pick up at the end;)).

BTW have people seen the GPF tickets price...they are trying to match the Worlds price for insanity (what's more insane is that the seats for Worlds still sold quickly). And the Japanese version even had more options lol they are not even being subtle on who they are trying to rip off :disapp: I now have to consider tossing up between going for better seats in a GP event (hope prices aren't crazy too) or lesser seats at GPF...*sigh*

Yesterday I went home and ranted for, like, a good half-an-hour because of that. I wanted to go but the prices for better seats are gonna be way too high for me.
 
These crazy prices are making fans bleed. The sport is so hard to access in real time. I just wish everyone had better oppurtunities.

Prices are indeed insane, I was planning on going to worlds but after the price announcement i decided it's just not going to happen, I thought the prices would be similar (more expensive, but not THAT much) than last seasons' GPF in Vancouver which I attended all three days of, and one of those with a really, really good seat. Now I'm just hopping Yuzuru gets Skate Canada, so I can finally watch him live.

It will be veeeerrry interesting to see if the prices tumble the year after Yuzu retires (not that we want that to happen any time soon). Maybe another superstar or two will rise in Beijing - I hope so for the sport's sake - or Shoma and Rika will take over the "drag fans all over the world" duty, but you can't help get the feeling the Federation accountants are trying to make monetary hay while our sunshine boy shines...

Thanks for this, what a lovely way to start of Kobe FaOI anticipation.
I wonder if Yuzu will be switching programs? They usually change at the 2nd part of the tour right?

I wonder too...But usually, he only has one exhibition for each half, so maybe he will keep both for this second half?
 
Didn't he say he had to choose between Crystal Memories and another song because he can't have three EX? So I think he probably will be continuing Crystal memories and Masquerade.

Also in a recent interview, Tarasova had this to say (google translated):

Not every year the Japanese land gives birth to such geniuses as Yuzuru Hanyu. He loves his work so much, he has an amazing character ... And this is all a plus to his beauty and to absolute hearsay, because I remember him from the first competition.

:luv17: She's as unabashedly biased as we are. And it's all true.

So cute! What are the chances for Zagitova to change her second program from Lara Croft to POTO instead? especially when she skates just before Yuzu? It will be like the whole POTO story acted out on stage :luv17: (don't get me wrong, I am in no way a shipper of these two, just thought it will be cool right after Christine did her skate, the Phantom appears!).
 
Cheers for FaOI Kobe!
:love::love::love:
I am excited if Yuzu will change his costume or keep masquerade and crystal memories.
 
It seems pamphlet of Kobe has interview of Yuzuru and Jeff. I wish we could read it :drama:
