there is so much to process and very few words to do it justice but thank you also to every fanyu who has shared in this journey, who have made up this community which, in itself, contains a lot of precious connections and memories 💕

Y: I don't like the word retire and I don't like to use it much. In an interview when I was 16-17, I was asked 'what happens when you win 2 Olympics', I said 'it's the start from there', and I think I'm there now
128
yuzu says if he can, he'd like to do a show in sendai or miyagi. he feels like he's finally standing at the start & in showing his skating for the 1st time as a pro in front of everyone, he feels he will be able to get even better & wants to ask for everyone's support :)) twitter.com/eyoki4/status/…
129
he really doesn't like the negativity associated with 'retirement' lmfao, he keeps emphasising he wants to get better. 'of course I want to take care of my body and, as I said in the presscon, also take care of my heart.'
130
I think there will always be a part of Yuzuru who skates for 3.11 - the victims, the memories, the survivors - and it's why I think his skating has this quality of healing, quiet acknowledgment and hope woven into it & is so deeply felt by those who have known all kinds of pain twitter.com/axelwithwings/…

英訳: From the interview on Nagoya TV tonight - "The 4A is truthfully very difficult for me. I haven't really been able to master it yet. But 'I will keep practising and will have it in my grasp!' - that's the feeling I'm laying down here (in his performance)." twitter.com/MIZUHARU9/stat…
132
a reminder that this was an actual article :))) twitter.com/OTON4L/status/…
133
On the 4A - It's something like the source of my passion within figure skating, so I hope to be able to keep aiming for it.
134
Yuzu will be skating at all stops at Fantasy on Ice in May ;; 💕 twitter.com/Fantasy_on_Ice…
135
Sorry, I'm missing everything but that means he's retiring as a competitive skater and continuing as a pro skater
136
Yuzuru: "From here on, I will practice more and more and do my best to make everyone think I've evolved further."
(Host is then very excited at the opportunity of being able to see Yuzu so close and thanks him for always moving everyone).
137
you can see the moment he registers the lights on his first round of thanks to the audience - says 'yabai' and gets teary-eyed 🥹💙

🐇🐇🐰🐇 笑顔 (smile); when I look back on this quad, these are the smiles that have meant the most; when perhaps it was the hardest, and yet you found it in you anyway

ohh, it seems that the #プロローグ audience all turned on their blue bangles together as a surprise for yuzuru before the final encore, this was the note passed around the audience, asking everyone to participate 🥹💙 twitter.com/yh_ys_127/stat…

羽 🦋 "The process of transformation is incredibly difficult (...) but I've finally reached a stage where I can flap those wings. I’d like to spread my wings properly and be ready to fly away."

142
A perfect skate, a healing skate, on his own terms, confronting and overcoming the pain and shadows of the memories in beijing and to help someone move forward as well, thank you Yuzuru for your courage as always ;; #HANYUYUZURU
143
they said I could be anything so I became a bowling ball
144
Now that I have a second to actually process #YuzuOnYoutube...... he really read everyone going 'I would like him to land a triple Axel on my face' and went 'ok' huh
145
Livetweet/update thread for the presscon 19 July 2022 (please don't expect much from me but I like to have a place to compile things)

147
Excited to bring everyone the first of many subbed interviews from the presscon - what stood out was absolutely these words for me, the way Yuzu challenged us once more in a Yuzu way to reconsider what 'retirement' means & I think we've seen that energy already in his YT videos twitter.com/axelwithwings/…
149
We are with you no matter what, miracle boy. See you tomorrow

Q: Is it true you were called 'Spinny Spinny Yuzuru-kun' in primary as you were always practising jumps?
A: I wonder about that! I said before I liked to be watched & there was this strong impression that only girls did fs so I remember I did it like 'nah, you can do this too!!'
