Olympic do u have any live stream for the upcoming YOG
SHIBSIBS PARADISE
Olympic I wish to see Shoma Uno SP from men's event!!!
If you’re ever sad remember you live on the same world as YUZURU HANYU
But its sad to accept the truth that we may live in the same world,were still so afar,he's like a star,a sky, a moon, a sun, he's so afar,and im certain that we will never cross in each others life,Nvm,Dont mind me hahaha im just being a drama god
@@liliberry1596 we never know..😏
Quell Yu bro i felt that and had the time to fckin have a mental breakdown this literally made me cry 🥺🤧😭
Not in the same country though :,)))
YourTaekook Braincells lol your username 💜
chopin would be proud
Technically Chopin would be mad because they removed a part of the Ballade...
@Yuzuru Hanyu’s Pooh-San EXCUSE ME it's a piece not a song alright thank you bye
Edit:ahh they deleted their comment and now I look stupid jeez
Classic Lover well I mean there’s no other way he can fit a 10 min long piece into a short program. Chopin would definitely be proud
Well he be "Chopin" the onions watching this!
I'll leave
Free fire Heart lol
Nathan may have broken his world record, but it will never compare to this performance.
agreed, the way he skates is just ethereal🤩
i played this piece from chopin (one of the most beautiful pieces ever), and although the program has only excerpts of it, yuzuru did a fantastic job interpreting it. His sense of artistry and physical abilities are out of the world!
FR, I had to come back and watch this again because I still can´t understand how THAT choreo broke this WR.
Nathan’s overscoring impact
@@TheMichellezarate dude forreal, Nathan had a small dance break but I’m so sorry it seemed like he was auditioning for a hip hop class???? What in the world. How did THAT break THIS. We must be having a nightmare lol 😂
Nathan's 113.97 compares nothing with this masterpiece. The elegance of Yuzu's Chopin is above all.
i wholeheartedly agree. while nathan may have all of the technical elements, his skating just isn't the same as this. i can't describe it but yuzuru just skates so majestically.
Agree he was over scored his performance was lacking in the emotion and artistic value. It's just technical fancy moves I feel nothing when l watch him.
@@val875 I think there's a HUGE stylistic difference between them. When nathan does quads they LOOK difficult. It's like he's bringing attention to how much strength and power actually goes into those jumps. But because of that he often lacks any sense of fluidity, every time I've seen him perform he just looks so stiff and rigid, it's almost like there's a sense of awkwardness when he's on the ice.
And yuzuru does the exact opposite of that. his performances are pure artistry. He makes the INSANE jumps he's doing look completely effortless. It's literally like he's one with the ice when he's out there, no stiffness or awkwardness at all.
@@alannahood4107 This!That's what I felt.When I was watching Nathan I had this sense of awkwardness and I thought what do I know ?I am no expert.But you put my thoughts into words.Yuzu is graceful.Its like he is gliding on ice.Nathan lacks fluidity.
elegance
i am not saying he was robbed and deserved a WR but thats exactly what i'm saying
omg your profile pic its jhope 💜
Seriously this is his best chopin ever in my pov..
@Blossom데이지 It's good to see my family appreciating art of a different kind. 💜
To be fair, he had the existing world record (and still has it), so there's not much point being mad hahahahaha
@Blossom데이지 probably wr stands for world record
I don’t know a lot about this sport/art honestly I don’t even know what I’m doing here.. but this was magical I loved it
He broke 18 world record of himself,dude.He so young.About 24 years old
@@julia_likeschicken and in His age I just waiting for frozen 2 release
Yuzuru causes this.
I myself ended here and have fallen in love with him.
@@julia_likeschicken Actually 19 WRs
Lol if you watched yuri on ice then yuri plisetsky would be the winner
this has got to be one of the greatest step sequences of all time
I got chills, no pun intended
factually it pretty much is! 8 out of 9 judges gave it perfect GOE (+3, remember the judging system changed)
also check out Mao Asada's step sequences from her Rach II free program in Sochi 2014!
Definitely, this is the greatest short program in fs history
I was just saying to myself as I was re-watching this masterpiece that this step sequence was possibly the best I’ve ever seen.
He never cheat,
He is the definition of textbook skater
He is skillful,
His efforts in his costumes,
He skates with musical,
He pours his soul,
He is calculative,
He is smart,
He is genius,
He is strong,
He is irreplaceable,
He is one in a lifetime athlete,
He is loved by the world,
He can gather people by his skating,
He is a great inspiration for others,
He is the Greatest of All Time figure skater.
He is Yuzuru Hanyu.
I am truly lucky to know him.
👍👍👍
Imagine living in this world and not knowing about him
You describe Yuzure so well. He's truely a living legend well love & admire by many people. He lives & breaths for his skating, so we can enjoy his skating.
Beautiful!❤
❤
THIS WAS SUCH A CLEAN SKATE, I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THIS DIDN'T EARN HIM A WR
Well it was HIS OWN world record at this point.
す
@@jugemujugemugokonosurikire4735 even so, he should have get this skating a world record too, but the judges denied this olympic record
He didn't get a level 4 critique on his last element, where he was supposed to use a change-foot spin. Otherwise, he probably would have gotten a wr.
@@maximvasilleyvich6060 They still held back in the scoring like they have been doing since years ago. Even without that the other elements should have been rewarded higher.
2:40 he isn't just performing, he is _seriously_ actually dancing, giving emotion to the piece. It's beautiful.
it's fine , I can’t agree more he shows so much passion in his skating. He is stunning isn’t he
Choreograph
I agree with you, because he was dancing in the right time in the music go high or slow.
But based on the jump his scores is okey but I do hope he break the records again
This is breathtaking
That's probably the best performance in Skating history to date. Visually, technically, physically, the entire package.
If u haven't already, look at the best of Boitano and Yagudin and Hamilton :P same with Plushenko
@@foxcatherine I've seen all of his skates from romeo & juliet 1.0 (my favorite one) to most recent Rondo, and H&E. All of his programs are insanely incredible, but I think Chopin is a neat bow that sums up all his skills with a classy atmosphere.
@@TheCandiceWang I dont get it why so many people like Plushenkos performances. He starts with a 20 second quad prep and from there on its just jumps with boring transitions.
@@jakobmax3299
🍀🌞🍀 ~ Точно !..
I know nothing about figure skating, but Hanyu looks like an angel.
Never forget that he skated with a still busted ankle. Yuzuru is the G.O.A.T
Is it?? This time his ankle not yet fully recover??
Exactly ♥️my favourite his SP programme
@@imcskchannel2864
3 months before the olympics , while practicing his jumps in Nov, he injured his right ankle ligament. The injury was so serious as even abt 2 months before olympics, he was still unable to skate due to his ankle pain. He was only able to do imagine traning on land
On Jan, abt 1.5 month before Pyeong Chang olympics, his ankle pain still persist. His resolution was to take pain killers or he wud have to withdraw.
During the competition, he was still taking painkillers.
A historical performance by a True CHAMPION - Yuzuru Hanyu 💪👍
@@ellielee490 ohh yeah i know that, hes such a fighter!👏👏🥇🥇👏👏👏👏
Msy Cyn he is a human as far as I know
what's more beautiful than chopin's ballade no 1?
chopin's ballade no 1 WITH yuzuru hanyu on ice.
Fantaisie-Impromptu by Chopin :-)
YEEEAAHHH
@@MrRight1000 i would like to see him playing fantaisie impromptu
@@ketokeko I hope that Yuzuru hears and presents us with his interpretation of Impromptu. After all, in the Ballade he didn't just skate Chopin - he WAS Chopin. I believe he owes it to his fans before he retires from professional sport. His role model competed till the age of 32, so can Yuzuru. IMO.
big brain comment
Yuzuru Hanyu can be outscored but never outperformed. This is the most beautiful Olympic figure skating program ever
Watched the last Men's GP competitions and found myself coming back here again. The only male skater who never bored me. The only one I could enjoy watching every time. With the competitions slowly turning into jumping competitions and tarnished by over scoring and just crossovers, programs like this cleanses my eyes. There will never be another skater like him. Some skaters may surpass him in terms of quads but nobody will surpass his musicality, interpretation and artistry. He shows what real figure skating is meant to be. The perfect, textbook skater. The Axel Overlord. The Prince on Ice.
Same, the gp series has reminded me how special Yuzuru is. His talent is so relevant and I hope new generations will remember the beauty of it
There needs to be a video of this FS hanging in the Louvre. The last male skater that had this level of charisma and art/athleticism combo was Alexi Yagudin. That's going back a long way.
The beauty of this brings tears to my eyes, I feel so lucky to be alive to do so.
couldn't agree more, Yuzuru is a gem and his legacy will prevail trough history
His score still pissed me off tho. He deserves the new world record with this performance
KiKi Waka yes first and second by him
He missed a level in one spin. That's why this not a WR
I agree with you he's technical score over 63 he should break the record
@@JorgeGarcia-gm6hh oh, really? which moment, please?
Van Santos the last change foot spin (aka the very last spin before the music stopped)
Anyone notices at 1:11 just before he started his spin, his toe touches the ice JUST at the moment of that high music note.... if this is not magic I don't know what is....
Timing
Everything about timing, he is like can use the time as what he want. Seriously, not magic
timing is magiccccc
OH yess yesssss!!! So beautiful.. This is like a treasure trove... every time we watch it.. it's like.. there's another gem to be found... wow...
@@Ambyaaarr n its his magic, hanyuesque.
Figure skating will never be the same without him. Watch how long he can hold the free leg after landing. I'am so lucky to live in this time, so I can see him. This is a gift. And I'am thankful for that.
I was just here for the ballade as a pianist, but this guy is awesome
They edited some bits out of the ballade.
@@equinoxtheseasonwing857 ye ik
Hello, check out his interpretation of Saint-Saëns Rondo Capriccioso. Just search "Yuzuru Hanyu Rondo Capriccioso JNATS 2021" , it's a piano version performed by Shinya Kiyozuka 😁
@@equinoxtheseasonwing857 it was condensed to fit the time limit for the short program
🤎🥇🎹
He plants his toepick into the ice to the precise beat of piano notes being played. That quad toe triple toe was... out of this world. To those who witnessed it live... it must have been a miracle.
Anyone watching this programme for first time would not have seen that triple Axel coming. Takes off with pinpoint precision to the music. Welcome to Planet Hanyu indeed... Population: 1. Him.
Lol 😂 your comments remind me how Italian comments ... 👍👍👍 “planet Hanyu population Only him”
hehehehe.. They are the best commentators!!!!!! ehheeheh..
In slow-mo, can see the height!
When i watch other skaters, i almost can guess they want to jump. But with Yuzuru, i often wonder he would jump or just continue move. Sometimes, his 3A looks like a part of his stsq so that i used to think 3A was an easy jump =)))
The 3A was just marvelous. Idk how many times I have been in awe at the fact that his takeoff - air time - landing matched the note PERFECTLY. And it's the quieter part of the music, so the impact is not in your face but when you discover it, the feels just hit like a truck
I don't watch skating but he's incredibly talented and mesmerizing. He's not just beautiful and smooth on the ice. He's confident. He looks like he ows the ice. I love watching him.
Guys YUNA KIM has wonderful performances, her best was at 2014 Sochi. Yuzuru has the same choreographer as her.
@@dotscrunch Yuzuru worked with David Wilson (who worked with Yuna Kim) upto Sochi. He changed choreographers later but he still worked on some exhibition programs like Notte Stellata with David. But I agree Yuna Kim is also another amazing skater one shouldn't miss out on.
I only came to know Yuzuru since Beijing Olympics and I regretted not having discovered such a gem earlier on. As someone who can't tell the difference between the different types of jumps and a classical music lover, I am drawn to him because he made the music alive. It is almost like he became the music. Of course, this can only be done with superb skating techniques and jump landings that look light and effortless. This programme and also his Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso programme are masterpieces and will withstand the test of time, just like Chopin's and Saint-Saens' music.
if you like when skaters can become one with the music you should check out zhenya medvedeva
welcome to addiction yuzu..figure skating for men is not the same now
Definitely. Legend is forever. This program will remain a legend forever over time.
You sound like a robot.
I was thinking the same! I haven't seen any other skater reach this level of harmony in their performance! Getting to see him skate has been a blessing, he made me even start figure skating!
This is still the best performance and worthy of world record.
I have to say everything is perfect. The music, the costume, the audience and of course his mesmerizing and aesthetic performance. The champion!!
Exactly. I felt the same as I was watching - it's a truly Olympic-worthy program in every aspect.
Huh
True...
Millah Milla
Actually I was thinking the same in the beginning but then I realized that the 1st version the program was more ethereal itself... I was not feeling the power of yuzu there for some reason ... second version was just about power ... this last version was a Golden middle and the costume also emphasizes both the ethereal nature of the program and unbelievable strength and confidence of his ... that was kind of my feeling
@Millah Milla
I completely understand what you mean ... probably from my character the power and dominance is very impressive for me combined with delicacy and that's why I love the last version the most but all of us have our preferences ... but now we are nitpicking, anybody in the sport would dream to skate the way he has skated even the worst skate of ballade
How could anyone pull off a perfect program on an injured ankle and under immense pressure? I'm so happy I'm living in Yuzu's era 😍
I heard he was on some strong painkillers
He already healed this time after 4 month recovering. Yes it should be..but who knows he still take his madicine this time..
Thanks and gracias. Oh, plus ありがとうございます。
@@afkarnadhifa that’s not enough please.
This is *exactly* what Chopin would have wanted
I don't get why Nathan's SP broke this magical world record
🇺🇸 passport.
Whoa. I know nothing about figure skating, but even I can tell that this is a gold performance. Everything, from the execution to the artistry… I have no words. As a musician, I understand how difficult it can be to embody a composer sometimes, but he did perfectly, while doing an extremely athletic sport. This is incredible, 1000/10
[Update]
I am now a huge fan of figure skating. I went and bought my own pair of gently used skates and I can’t wait to get on the ice and start learning this incredible art. I’ve discovered so many amazing skaters to cheer for, all because of the 2018 Olympics!
have you started yet?
Good luck!
cheese boi welcome to the world of yuzuru hanyu.. He touches your heart n warms yr soul with his skates. One n only. Greetings from Malaysia, truly Asia
That's amazing, I really want to skate, but I just have no way of doing it and it makes me really sad
Glad you found passion in figure skating!
Other skater: Skate to music playing in the background
Yuzu: Music plays to his skating
..What?
@@esterleng860
basically i think (cuz there’s a possibility that i’m wrong) that it means that most other skaters just skate and don’t really connect with the music, which makes it feel like it’s just background music rather than a part of the performance. whereas yuzu’s movements really connect with and complement the music instead.
please correct me if i’m wrong. i am in no ways a professional at figure skating or dancing or music or anything like that
*Soviet anthem plays*
Hey
True story
Who else are watching his performances after announcing his retirement? A true legend will never be forgotten.
🤗me
He’s retiring from competitive skating, not ice skating altogether
Me, watching him everyday
in 2023 i’m still crying…masterpiece!
Yuzuru Hanyu has raised my standards for good skating like I cant watch anyone else because they all look so heavy compared to him. He just makes it look so effortless its amazing
SAME BRUH 😭😭😭 that’s why i do have a high standard 😭😭😭
Me too..
Same! Especially with some skater’s arms. I love how he has fluid and elegant movements where other skaters kinda wave their arms around and don’t really have control in them, but that’s just my opinion 🤷♀️
same
@@kirin_chan his balletic arm movements are just 🤧👌
Every notes every moves, it's like a liquid gold.. My favorite SP from Pyeongchang!! Bravo Yuzuru!
YES!... truly...
Agree 👍
Check out Yuna Kim, Yuzuru has the same choreographer as her
@@dotscrunch Omg shut up with your Yuna Kim, everyone is bored by idiot fan's
@@lorel1458 I understand your pov but please don't be rude
I can see many people saying than Nathan Chen is an amazing skater who beats Yuzuru. Well, maybe, when you look at the scores and points since 2018 Olympics. But Yuzuru has such a deep understanding of music and emotions, it’s unbelievable! He has this beautiful aura around him, every move is well thought through, every element matches with another and all of it completes the whole performance. Nathan is great, but after rewatching his 2018 performances at the Olympics he was just completing elements, while in Yuzuru programs everything is so continues and I never get bored of watching his skating. I might not be a skater, but I am classical musician, and Yuzuru is a really big inspiration to me!
Still the best Short Program existed and no world records can't beat this performance.
He looks like an magical prince on the ice
Plot twist : he IS a magical prince on the ice
@@itsyaboichilde5397 he is the king
Not only is he actually that, he also hibernates in a waterfall-veiled cave filled with 50,000 glittery costumes for up to 300 days straight before the start of every new figure skating season. I am the cave so I can confirm.
It's been 2 years since this comment, but thank you now I can watch this masterpiece again 🥺 He's really a prince 💙💙
Tatiana Tarasova said that this program "is a program at the end of which you should not get up, but kneel down and thank God that we are lucky to see this" and I couldn't agree more with her, Yuzuru Hanyu certainly is not unbeatable but he is totally insuperable
I always say: you can beat him but you can't surpass him.
When he's *on* he's unbeatable. Or should be. Even with some mistakes a lot of the times that shouldn't equate to no win (comparing to the level of the program and the other skaters).
Especially with the current level of the top men but that's a discourse for another day.
gracias
no one is 'unbeatable', but but very few can show such greatness on this level
@@heizeking3557 this is just annoying
@@alazjaw.8968 what's annoying?
dont worry yuzuru, in our hearts this will always hold the record
The best Olympic men’s short program
I remember this day...after two hours of watching the other skaters, the moment he sets out onto the ice, this tension overwhelmed me and it's probably even more apparent and clear for those watching it live. It was a make-it or break-it moment. Will he endure the injury or will it succumb him.
The moment he landed that first quad, tears rolled down my cheeks. The moment that he landed his beautiful triple axel, a voice echoed through the entire rink if not the whole world... that we are seeing a living legend there and then.
It's been months since the Olympics but I just want to say this again... Welcome back, champion
awww... That's so beautifully said...
He's an angel on Ice and off💙😇
This!
I saw the live stream too, it was about 6am by my country's time when he was about to go on the ice, I had been up since 2am and I was so nervous I was hiding behind a pillow, peering out from behind it. And then he started skating and it felt like the whole arena was holding their breath, and how he just nailed element after element, and I just knew that this was something else. You weren't the only one crying at the end, I was this really weird emotional mess who tried to explain to a friend of mine over skype why I was sat crying over figure skating.
I've seen him live actually! I was in Helsinki for the grand prix, and when he came out, it was like it transformed in to a completely different arena. Seeing him skate, you just KNEW you were seeing a legend. Although it's even more intense, I mean, you can hear the screams of the audience in the background from the videos, but it's nothing like hearing it live. I can just imagine how it must have been at the Olympics.
Same 😭❤ I can't believe it has been 1 year since then.
ANIS your comment is so touching . You have a pure soul like he does, beautiful. l want to read more. you have a talent . I think you should write about him and be a writer.
Still can't believe this is not a world record
@Sally Vee He still deserved a WR from the other elements from what i saw in the protocols.
They held back in some elements like they have been done since a while.
But you're right tho, he for sure would have gotten a WR with a lvl4.
This is one of my absolut fav performances, tho I think he got lucky not to have a < on the 4T
He's still the best i've ever seen.
“The greatest short program of all time”
this is no longer sport, this is art.
Both. Beautiful and athletic at the same time!!!✨🥲
@@beepbeep670 oh yes, exactly! i don't mean it in a wrong way. it's just that ballet makes me feel this way, and i rarely feel like that with other sports. only yuzuru hanyu made me feel this way with skating.
@@ayuzawa9203 Yessss!!!! (I meant nothing in my comment too xD) And yes, he flows with the music and it seems like the music swirls around him while he was performing. Spectacular.
It's a...... Spart?
2:05 How does he just yolo a perfect triple axel like that
He can jump 3A from a standstill
and when he lands the moment the note changes. the timing!!!
The goat
I came back here after watching all the figure skating matches. Everyone will.
私はウインタースポーツが盛んでない国に長らく住んでおり羽生選手の名前は知っていたけど演技は見たことがなかった
この平昌のバラ1が初めて見た羽生選手の演技で本当に度肝を抜かれた
私のイメージにあった男子フィギュアと全く違い本当に全てが信じられないほど美しくてものすごく感動した
これは私がフィギュアに興味を持ち、羽生選手を応援するキッカケになったになった記念すべきプログラムでそれこそ何百回と見てるがいまだに感動で涙がこぼれる😢
点数的にはこれを超えるSPはあるだろうけど、人の心を捉えるSPという意味では、これを超えるプロはもう出ないだろう
それくらい衝撃的なプログラムです
I have entered a fandom I didn't know existed until today
welcome :)
Welcome dear new Fanyu:)
Welcome baby fanyu
saaaaame
Same for me! Thanks to Yuri on ice and I'm loving it
"I'm back" ❤
and that's is the point where we all recover our breathe
Thanks for finally upload it
I came for the Chopin, but stayed for the incredible skater.
Best Sp in olympic history, tbh this should
Have been world record
Actually...
i can never get tired of watching this. today was probably the 150th time i’ve rewatched this program. his form, his body lines, his technique, his musicality, his attention to detail, his timing, his interpretation, his transitions, his body awareness, the way he makes simple choreography so difficult to outdo- and this is not to say this program is easy, no, no it really isn’t, and anyone who says otherwise are certainly uncultured. but when you compare him to others who complete standout moves to make the crowd roar and complex choreography they sometimes stumble over for how strongly they are pushing their bodies to compete in the same realm as him, this program is the definition of strength in subtlety. he is a rare phenomenon. a raw talent amidst the talents in all sport. the mentality he possesses is beyond what any of us can comprehend.
Totally agree. This is my favorite of all his programs. He is the greatest skater in history.
a rare phenomenon...WOW
Indeed he is rare, or very extra- ordinary.
I call Hanyu the Spectre.
Have you looked at this video at 50% normal speed?
Check out his new short!
@@gisellesinclair6811 check out his new short at Japan.. Breathtaking and absolutely beautiful
@@Gavrochee-lk3qu oh dw i’m a full fledged fanyu, i was sweating just waiting for him to appear in the livestream 😭 japanese media needs to make their streams more accessible like that’s the only department they’re lacking in comparison to rusfed
As a ballet and contemporary dancer, the ways he uses his arms and spins is so beautiful! The perfect balance of grace and power.
Same here
His pos de bar is *chef kiss
This is the TRUE Olympic record SP.
I don’t even know anything about this sport he’s the only one I watch I love his outfits his beautiful smile and his determination beautiful
He is a miracle that has landed on the ice.
This is still the best SP performed ever. The 4T - 3T is musically so on point
And the 3A that without putting the free leg down at landing. Absolutely sublime.
Yeah Yuzu's 3A needs a mention of its own. It's like a different jump from others.
This performance embodies Chopin so virtuously, like he's his living muse in the present day 💙
He was the first to perform in the last group. Don't forget that he also had a serious injury but bringing a performance like this. Unbelievable! He is technically and spiritually irresistible. Everytime it is breath taking.
Speechless, he is like an angel in ice.
He’s already a legend. No one compares to his full package ART & sport.
I can watch him skate forever
That day the news in my small country published news from the Olympics and mentioned an amazing Japanese. I looked up his program on TH-cam and fell in love with his skating. It's been like that every day since then 💙💙💙🇧🇦
After each performance, he stays longer with the audience to acknowledge them with his bows, ……how can the audience not love him….
Anyone rewatching this masterpiece after he retired?
I come to Olympics channel to rewatch his performances daily. His official channel "Hanyu Yuzuru" is a treasure for me. Thank you Yuzu!
👍👍👍👍😭🥰🥰 i miss him
All the time. This is my favorite short program, and I can watch it over and over.
我几乎每天都会来看看，他的节目精美绝伦，百看不厌，希望能有机会到现场看他的冰演。
he’s absolutely breathtaking, i can’t imagine comp seasons without him :( i adore everything about yuzu honestly
Hearing his skating sounds on ice is so satisfying
never forget that he literally skated like this with a severe injury and while taking painkillers. no one will ever top his greatness
we need a museum to keep this ART
The most beautiful Olympic short program! Love it!
THIS IS WHAT I LIVE FOR THIS IS LITERALLY ART
How they roar for him. Truly, what a privilege it is to watch Hanyu Yuzuru skate
If you've been searching for the most beautiful figure skating performance in the world, this might be it.
He looks like a cloud floating on ice
This wasn't skating. This was liquid gold on ice.
Да, великий, непревзойденный. Легко, воздушно. Бесстрашный, музыкальный. Смотришь как спектакль. Чудо!
There is something so ethereal about him. You just watch his every movement and can't look away. He is truly not of this planet.
And he pulled THAT off with severe ankle injury which he led everyone believe had recovered. He's an athlete, an artist and also a strategist. Words can't describe how amazing he is.
I became a fan of Yuzuru after seeing this performance.
always coming back here, to the athlete who introduced me to art first, i will forever keep all the memories and tell about him around the world, as I am the witness of an artist through the years… i’ll forever wish the best to yuzuru, hopefully he’ll achieve more and more moments of pure happiness in life
I was shivering and awed his historic performance. He said after the Olympics in fact he had been so nervous for skating in public in months. He had jumped triple axel for three weeks and quad for two weeks just before this day, with his painful right ankle! That was ridiculous and unbelieavable! His tenacious spirit did the trick! It was the moment when I realized only Yuzuru would deserve the gold medal. 来たーやっと来た！＼(^o^)／待ってたこの歴史に残るSPを！！今もあの時の緊張と興奮は忘れられない。震えが止まらなかった。実は羽生君もすごく緊張したそうだ（信じられない！)金メダルを確信した瞬間でした。
823 gth i was hoping that he would still focus on his recovery, but my happiness went off the roof when I saw that he won again. I was so nervous during his FS & SP because of what would probably happen because of his injury 😭
this is what ice skate artistic is... beautyful
I am very happy that he will get to enjoy the ice again free from competition induced pressure.
we all know this performance is truly deserving of a world record
I have to admit to only seeing this yesterday. I won’t lie, I cried. It’s breathtaking, it’s unbelievable! My tears fell in the sheer beauty, and obvious near impossible dedication he must have put into his art. He is an art form.
He’s the only one who can make us “see” the music
don't worry i just saw this for the first time a few months ago and yes there is something amazing about him.
This was in 2018 and it’s the Olympics how could anyone just saw this. Pathetic.
@@20891 huh
"he is an art form" YES. exactly. he becomes his art as soon as he sets foot on the ice.

ここまでショパンの似合う男子フィギュアスケーター見たことない
羽生結弦選手オリンピック２連覇達成
This is still the best short program ever, from the very first note till the end
There are no quad lutz and quad flip in this program, but frankly it doesn't matter. Most of Hanyu Yuzuru's short programs are excellent, but Chopin Ballad No. 1 is literally a "masterpiece." I'm sure figure skating fans will be back here in 10, 20, or even 100 years. This is not just a fan base issue, but because this program is a landmark in men's figure skating.
He’s totally playing the music with his skating skills.😮😮
This is figure skating above the best.Only YUZURU HANYU can do that.
Your legacy in Men's figure skating will always remain. Forever the GOAT!
The only Olympic champion in my heart.
This very performance is why I decided to put on a pair of figure skating boots and get on the ice; coming from a poor backwater town in South Africa. Every time I watch this it pushes me to push myself; even after tearing my MCL in a fall in practice. From the eyes of a beginner; this is the epitome of inspiration! Thank you @YuzuruHanyu for making the dreams of a young boy a reality. Thank you for your artistry.
Ey somebody from Mzansi. Lots of love.
I was very impressed.Thank you. From Japan❤️
This is the most beautiful 4T+3T jump I ever seen
going back to this performance after Yuzu announced his retirement from competitive skating. kinda sad i wouldnt see him perform competitively with my own eyes, but overall really just happy he’s free and excited for the next chapter in his career.
forever the goat ❤️🔥
We'll be blessed if he competes at the next Olympics
His third olympics and he's still a medal contender... His longevity at the top of the figure skating foodchain at the "Age of Quads" is really astounding.
As long as he competes, he'll always be a medal contender 🙏
SUNGHOON?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE
now that it's confirmed, i really hope that he lands the 4a
Most just go through the motions, nearly on beat, but Yuzuru is always one with the music and choreography. He’s an incredible athlete, but he’s an artist like no other!
2023 and i'll still never get bored of him.
Chopin's Ballade No. 1 is in it's own class. No matter how many times you have watched it, you will still get mesmerised and fully absorbed into the program. This program is in another realm of its own.
It's been 5 years, but still get thrilled when seeing him finished all the elements perfectly. 😭
