I watched him complete that program with courage, commitment to the music and faith to tell that story until the very end, and give the ice the gentle smile after. Thank you Yuzuru, for skating, for fighting the battle that only you can fight #FlyYuzu #羽生結弦 #YuzuruHanyu

watching the fight that he showed through the entire program after the first jump, the concentration on the combo and the axel and dedication to expressing each beat of a ridiculously complex program will stay with me ;;

To accept what went wrong within seconds, while dealing with far more intense emotions than all of us watching him, to finish his singularly complex program beautifully after, and to face the avalanche of scrutiny after with grace and a smile. This is Yuzuru Hanyu twitter.com/kattwts/status…

The 20,000+ postcards for #YuzuruHanyu at #Beijing2022 😭 from 7yr old children's drawings to carefully handwritten essays, each of them are filled with love and well wishes. May they reach him and give him strength ❤️ twitter.com/ffkuma/status/…

To be 27 and still pushing the highest tech frontiers while developing even deeper, meaningful artistry. I simply pity the people who refuse to see it. As TAT once said - 'they are arrogant to think they will see another yuzuru hanyu in their lifetime'

YUZU BOYANG OLYMPIC REUNION 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

"I’d like to attempt [the quad Axel] properly without throwing away this dream and without giving up. But I’ve come here accepting that the Beijing Olympics may be the extension to this journey."
one more step forward, yuzu

I have to say after the 4A fall in practice and seeing the grimace on his face in the morning in his jump landings and sitting with quiet fears this whole time, I'm genuinely just in awe of yuzu's fighting spirit
17
Kind words from Rie Habu, wife of Japanese shogi player Yoshiharu Habu (who shares the same kanji surname as Yuzu): It's possible that there were people surrounding him who advised Hanyu-senshu to abandon the 4A & choose a safer layout to obtain the unprecedented 3rd OGM (1/2) twitter.com/yuzutapioka/st…

Comment from Yuzuru - 'My honest feeling right now is that I gave everything I had. Clearly I jumped a better [quad] Axel than at previous competitions. Um, of course, there's also feelings of 'just a little more', but I think that was probably my everything.' twitter.com/SponichiF/stat…

'Also, of course, I knew that skating clean is important and you can't win without skating clean, but in a sense, precisely because there were the first two mistakes that I feel maybe that this 'Heaven and Earth and' story was able to be told' twitter.com/SponichiF/stat…

'I gave it everything. Honestly, I couldn't have tried harder than this. Well, maybe it was unrewarded effort, but there were indeed lots that didn't go well after the SP - conversely, only things that didn't go well this time. But I gave it my all.' twitter.com/SponichiF/stat…
21
he gave it everything he had, as he always does, overcoming battles that would have floored anyone else. I'm glad that he acknowledges it himself and I hope he knows it with every fibre of his being 💙
22
On whether he will continue challenging the 4A - 'Please give me a bit more time. I want to think about it a bit. The amount I did this time was everything I could.' twitter.com/SponichiF/stat…

"I've challenged it, it was an Olympics filled with my pride." twitter.com/megdale1021/st…

yuzu's reaction finding out that his 4A had been certified 😭💕 so so happy to see him smile ;;;; (full translation coming with the @axelwithwings team) twitter.com/anipooh1/statu…

Javi: 'Yuzuru, next time I see you, I'll give you a hug first. It may be impossible with COVID but if I can, I want to give you a huge hug. Your energy is boundless. You've made history!' twitter.com/yzkyun_4A_mami…
