Yuzuru Hanyu: 2014-15 Season

[Hanmgse]

I've been kinda trying my best to catch up with the thread after weeks of limited internet access, but unfortunately, it's hard for me to read with details all the posts, but thanks for the updates everyone!!! I'm kinda worried but also excited to see how his costume for the seimei program will end up.... hahas! (but I really like the one he used for the exhibition though....) So looking forward to new videos!!!

I really love the 'dokidoki' video!!! yuzu's so lively and cute there! hahas!

We missed you around here

Some fan tweeted the costume looks like this with different colored version (green and white). :

okay...I'm sorry guys but--no matter which way I look at it...doesn't look like lettuce.
hwell:
it looks more like an abandoned BEEHIVE.
Will Yuzu be wearing a beehive costume?! mmmm nuh-uh

 

[HanyaYuzura]

Have fun!

I recently discovered how to set it up and have changed it about 3 times now

okay..excuse me. I know this has nothing to do with the discussion but--how can I possibly change my avatar? I mean I really tried to MANY TIMES but can't (or don't know how)
can you help me? Pretty please?

 

[HanyaYuzura]

Do you see a need for tutoring? or should we let this one slide?

I vote LET IT SLIDE.
Don't let him notice!

But I think you need a certain number of posts until you can choose a custom avatar. I think it was something like 60 or 80 if I remember correctly.

I blame Johnny

 

[firal]

If I need to be blinded by anyone's costume bling, it might as well be Hanyu-san's.

 

[HanyaYuzura]

I am hoping for frills, glitter and shiny rhinestones!

I second that hope!

okay...thankyou!I tried your first suggestion. BUt I get the problem now is the second one. I think I don't have enough posts just yet.

But thanks for helping!

I blame Johnny

Blame it on the boogie...I mean the Johny.
Speaking of Johny..did he design Yuzu's EX costume? anybody knows who designed it?

Who else can create glitter lettuce? My money on Johny. Or perhaps Yuzu's mother wanted to remember old days

Maybe Yuzu misses his good old R&J2 costume. I know, I do.
I hope the colors won't be too strident or salad-like. Turquoise would be great.

HI everyone!!

It seems Yuzu cleanly landed all his jumps for SEIMEI!!
oh wait, almost all.

At the end Yuzu did not smile or wave to the audience but stayed in SEIMEI character and put his fingers to his lips as he skated off stage. Too Cool!

It's SO much better than when I saw it on DOI. I felt that the beginning choreo was changed or added to? I thought the Ina Bauer was a bit clumsy before but the Hydroblade right on the music was facing towards me, HAPPY!

I guess we'll find out soon enough, but this tweet says it looks like this but with white and light green.
https://twitter.com/yuz__gm012/status/614419719450329088

Many tweets describing it as "lettuce" and others say "glowing seaweed".


And Shoma is wearing a lettuce as well…?

I can't wait anymore

Some fan tweeted It's a program that everyone who watched it will be going to cry.

Nobu updated his blog. No new costumes, but you can see Yuzuru practicing racewalking.

small vids with all skaters together

The Opening costume looks nice, I think: From Yuzu's FB.

(from Yuzu's FB group) Apparently, a fan on twitter has drawn Yuzuru's new EX costume (a piano piece, though it does not say which one I don't know if it's true, but if it is... Doesn't it remind you of an infamous costume? I can't wait to see who will get offended over trivial things once again.

So much on the news today. Sorry if it's already been posted.
A new book is coming out soon.

What is "天と地のレクイエム Ten to Chi no Requiem" for Yuzuru's EX?

I noticed Heian nobles had "Moe Sode - Moe sleeves" that Yuzuru likes

https://youtu.be/OcmHxOizJU0
https://youtu.be/-EAKFsrTd1A

practice and interview with Oda Miki Akiko and Yuzu.

In the second vid, you can see Yuzu stomping his foot and saying "Let me talk!!" to Nobu and Miki since they are talking when a question is addressed to Yuzu.

Yuzu says he looooves gold things and gold leaf added to food and drink.

a fan said at FB group that THIS is his new ex music

Here is a better version of today's clips. http://dai.ly/x2vnru0

info from Yuzuru's group about the song and the title , he titles his program ""Requiem of Heaven and Earth "

"The Japanese title of the music video is The Great East Japan Earthquake Requiem "3.11" "

"According to the music description in youtube, this piece of music is played in pray for other major disasters in Japan. Maybe someone can translate in summary to let people more understand the meaning of music"

" requiem = In music, a Mass for one or more dead persons, containing biblical passages and prayers for the admission of the dead to heaven. The term has been loosely applied to other musical compositions in honor of the dead"

"in a nutshell, Japan was hit by various natural disasters in 2011, not only by the March 11 disasters, but the KII peninsula was hit by huge flood. Some long-term fans of Yuzuru are saying that he must have chosen this music and renamed it for his EX, removing the specific reference to the Great Eastern Japan Earthquake, since -- incidentally-- Kobe and Nagaoka (the locations of the iceshows in July) also met huge natural disasters over the past 20 years. Deep, deep meaning is contained in the choice of the music..."

such a thoughtful young man he is

on a happier note (its debatable actually XD) another fanart of his costume

Thanks for the links matmuh and everybody.
Like many of you, I think the music is beautiful and sad at the same time. I need to prepare a box of tissues before watching it.
This seems to be another version of the same music, uploaded more recently. I haven't made a comparison, but it's a minute shorter.

I also looked up "lettuce" and this came up.

It says the new costume resembles this one worn by Nobu but with more frills and the pants are black.

Speaking of Machida, I heard that Yuzuru bowed like him after his requiem program. A bit of Machida influence maybe?


Lucky girl! Congratulations!

Thanks mikaboo for your sleuthing about Yuzuru's exhibition costume. I think we have now a pretty fair idea of what it looks like.

Tatsuki has the best bows (and remains in character until he leaves the rink) so it's good if he can influence Yuzuru in that regard. But not with regard to the hair please. Let Yuzuru's mother continue to cut his hair.

I am hoping for frills, glitter and shiny rhinestones!

And don't forget the illusion mesh too.

You speak for everyone of us as to our hopes and dreams of that program for Yuzuru. Good job. :thumbsup:

Welcome back and congratulations to ahkeekee and thanks everyone for the links and updates. I think we will soon see light after the "Dark Days."

Thanks you ! Interesting to read, as always ! I suppose this first post about Seimei will be followed by another one after SC ?

Yuzuru's 3A at the age of 13 in case anyone hasn't seen it http://youtu.be/cYcH7dcSk9Q

He was already very very talented for a 13 years old boy...:shocked:

Yes, definitely!! It will be interesting to see how Seimei changes from the "show" version...then to the full version at SC....then further developed by Worlds!!!

I think some of you have already known it but Yuzuru’s new book will be published this summer !?!


Btw, It’s a very short interview when he was 16 years old haha. (was Translated by me, feel free to correct me)

The interviewee : Would you try cross dressing one day?
Yuzuru : Nothing doing! (laugh)

Why?
Yuzuru : No way no way!

I think that looks great on you. (laugh)
Yuzuru : No way no waay!

You should succeed it as a tradition of the man from Tohoku (region).
Yuzuru : No way no way no way! (laugh)
Oh wait, you forget Honda (Takeshi) -san, he hasn’t done it yet!!
but then, I just realised that he is a father (of his children).
umm…It may not be a good thing to a father doing such a thing.

That’s it! so now it’s your turn, You would surely look good in a (woman’s) kimono.
Yuzuru : Are you sure? really ? Oh noooooooooooooo

Oh you better not let Yuzuki hear this, she would be sooo disappointed in her alter ego
