Yuzuru Hanyu

KOSÉ's financial results have risen by 35.5%, mainly driven by SEKKISEI; they are considering launching IPS products from 2026:

Marika_yuzu, who invests in shares from companies sponsoring Yuzuru Hanyu (I think that these companies are more likely to be wisely managed, so in my opinion it's a pertinent criteria), may get dividends.

Here's a new universitary article about Yuzuru Hanyu, this time the relation between his Olympic competitive costumes and fashion:

Just in time for all the fashion threads in the Edge , lol

That is wonderful! I know Yuzu is very selective about which and how many sponsors he takes on, this has got to make others more eager to sign him. And happy sponsors make for more shows!

Fantasy on Ice in Makuhari (their first stop) is starting the second general sale. With Yuzuru Hanyu solo shows' short notice and reduced number of lotteries, I now feel a bit lost with the usual succession of lotteries for Japanese shows, but I believe that this is the last one?

Meanwhile, the tickets for the Aichi (second) stop, are at an earlier lottery phase, ending on 19th:

Yes, it's rational for both reasons: companies who want him to be their image are more likely to be good ones, and he is selective, meaning among others that they are likely to be well managed.

Which makes that high fashion thread even more pertinent and my comment about people years ago slamming his costumes even more ironic.

I need an AI that translates Portugese although I suspect some fans are working on it right this minute.

Fantasy on Ice in Makuhari Day 2 will have live viewing not only in many Japanese movie theatres, but also in six venues in Hong Kong and three in Taiwan:

God I love that If costume and the way it moves...

If is a rather underrated program just because the rapper was too emotional I think... Someone did a video with the song from Da Pump's CD, but I didn't manage to access it, and anyway, Yuzuru Hanyu says that a performance of his reflects his perception of the music as it is when he skates.
It's so innovative in so many points, not to speak of its "physically impossible" spiral...
Still, it won a contest of best program of the season 2022-2023 on a Yuzuru Hanyu-only forum.
Here's If:

The "impossible spiral" is between 2:41 and 2:47.

I love "IF". It is fresh, original, creative, innovative and simply beautiful. I do not think it is underrated. Many people love it. I just think that - like all the FaOI programmes - it is rather short-lived and then it is difficult to access it because of copyright. We're lucky to have any copy on You Tube at all TBH.

I don't know, I wasn't expecting a full program?
This being said, I've seen people now asking for Danny Boy, so maybe I'm an exception. Of course I would love to have Danny Boy too, this is such a wonderful program! But I'm grateful to NTV to gift us a whole program legally accessible for nearly a year for free, there are people who can't afford streamings of RE_PRAY and as to Notte Stellata 2024, we will need probably about a year before getting DVDs.
