Yuzuru Hanyu's video "breaks records" and overturns the world's conventional wisdom.
Hanyu appeared in the world's top ice show
"Stars on Ice" (Towa Yakuhin Lactab Dome, Osaka), which opened on
March 30. While he captivated the entire audience with his stunning
performance, outside the rink, he caused an upsetting phenomenon that turned
the world's "conventional wisdom" on its head.
His presence was also outstanding at "Stars on
Ice," his first appearance in two years. As the last skater, Hanyu landed
a quadruple-triple toeloop to "Phantom of the Opera," which he
performed in the free skate of the 2014-15 season. I have tried my best as a
professional skater and as a member of Stars to give my best," said hanyu.
Hanyu, who received the loudest cheers
of all, is the "Global Muse" of Kose's skincare brand "Seikohada
Sei". As part of this effort, under the title "Yuzuru Hanyu's
#(hashtag) Miyabiyakana Hitori" (Yuzuru Hanyu's #(hashtag) Miyabiyakana
Hitori), the videos, each around 7 minutes long, tell a story according to each
theme. A representative of the company commented,
"Short videos are the trend nowadays, and even though people tend to watch
TikTok and other videos at double speed, people are taking their time to watch
these videos. Although this is a counter-trend measure, it is the most engaging
post on social networking sites for Seikohada Sei's content. Although the
second season has reached its final episode, the number of PAs (positive
actions) was an overwhelming 15 times higher than normal. At this stage, they
are making adjustments with a sequel in mind.
The popular video is also filled with Hanyu's particular
attention to detail. The person in charge says, "Whenever we shoot, we
always do our best to prepare in advance. Even if we say, 'Okay,' he will
sometimes say, 'I wanted to do a little more here and there, so can I shoot one
more time?
Hanyu has been creating a record-breaking response no matter
what he does. This show will start in Osaka, followed by a performance in Oshu,
Iwate, and a performance in Yokohama, Kanagawa. Hanyu said, "I don't think
my physical condition itself is that great, but I want to give it my all, put
all my energy into all my performances, and do my best. It is likely that we
will see Hanyu fulfilling his assigned role under any circumstances.
