Yuzu commenting on the ongoing World Cup and team sports in more general

From this I guess that the Japanese team has lost? (I'm not following the World Cup at all!)

It seems that both Singer Taisei Miyakawa (Miya) and Pianist Shinya Kiyozuka have spoken of Yuzuru Hanyu in their latests chats?

This is lovely, a donation has been made to disaster relief by the Yomiuri Shimbun from the sales of a compact inspired one of Yuzuru's costumes...

Yuzuru's merchandise is also always a cut above...

So as we reminisce, let's reminisce in full...

Here's from Riota, an iconic Japanese illustrator and mural creator, whose drawing of Messi at the World Cup just went viral.
Still, in his own eyes, his greatest masterpiece is his drawing of Yuzuru Hanyu, and as he revealed during a recent interview on the Japanese radio Yuzuru is his favourite subject.
Machine translation of the first tweet coming from Riota himself:
"The greatest masterpiece of my life so far is the piece I drew of "Yuzuru Hanyu." Even without drawing his face much, through the composition, silhouette, and atmosphere, I excel at and absolutely love drawing illustrations where you can tell who it is."
Text in the frame being a fragment of the interview translated in the tweet below.

I am not surprised, that is simply glorious! And it couldn't be anyone else, no other skater looks like him.
