Yuzuru Hanyu

[DizzyFrenchie]

I think a LOT of fans would buy that figurine, I think it's based on nendoroids (Ive seen them for TV shows like The Untamed) and is perfect. I would!

Satomi's costumes for his shows were wonderful, I mean that Firebird one which he wore for what, four minutes? - but no expense or effort was spared, and the Spirited Away is now firmly one of my favourite costumes of all, and not just of Yuzu's.

I do hope that these costumes will be re-used! Maybe the full Firebird is too heavy for a skated program of course, but at least, the part he skated with.

Here's the subtitled version of the Yuzuru Hanyu/Kohei Uchimura cross-interview:

They're so funny together, aren't they? But there is also a lot of truth to what they say.

I agree about the weight, but hope he has plans for it, it must have been expensive for that short entrance! But he looked magnificent, which was what was intended

They're so funny together, aren't they? But there is also a lot of truth to what they say.

Especially what Yuzuru says about the beauty of the skating, he's pretty much proven with all three shows that that is what the audiences most want to see (so okay, some skaters can't do beautiful. That ain't Yuzu's fault )

And here's to another wonderful cooperation and friendship. Shea-Lynn and her husband were so impressive in the show! And she's always so warm and full of admiration when she speaks of Yuzu! It's obvious how much they enjoy working together.

More gorgeous art...

And even more, this one is now my tablet wallpaper! (Go and check it fullsize)

And another cover with yet another great photo

The camera really loves him, doesn;t it? And so do the Japanese photographers I can't help laughing though, Worlds is pretty well on the doorstep but the magazines are still putting Yuzuri on their covers.

Here's a new communication from KOSE:


And here are some more biscuits:

Do any other fans make bikkies to hand out at competions/shows, or is it just a Yuzu thing? It's just lovely and so (pun intended) sweet....

I love especially the ones with walking Yuzurus. It was also one of my favourite video sequences during the GIFT....

Seems like the ads for upcoming TV broadcast of Prologue are all over the place.
That's a station in Tokyo ....


.... and in Nagoya...

 

[DizzyFrenchie]

Sales have started for Fantasy on Ice, and although the results aren't known yet, it is rumoured to be "a bloodbath".
Comparatively, sales for Stars on Ice seem much quieter, but now it seems that, at least, most shows will be sold out (a few are sold out, some others have only seats with restricted view left). The organisers had managed to sell so very few seats before Yuzuru Hanyu was announced!

It sounds like most of the audiences for both shows will be Yuzu fans... and I suspect both are paying jim accordingly. Now to start wondering what he is going to skate! With the new programs, I have so many I want to see....

I wonder if he s going to use one of the new programs from the recent shows or come up with something completely new for SOI... I guess, we might have something completely new for FOI, anyway, because of the guest artists, right?
But, true, with the new programs, difficult to have a favourite yet, they are all so beautiful.

Thank you for sharing!

Prologue will be shown on Japanese TV

 

[Magill]

I know it is in Japan and all, but it feels funny when Canadian CBC 's promotional clip for this year's Worlds shows... Yuzuru

 

[TallyT]

He's just so much more photogenic than most people have a right to be... so of course they'd use him on the advertising.
