It’s true that I said it was a nuisance, but I never thought they would release a version where Yoasobi is completely gone…

Kenshi Yonezu × Yuzuru Hanyu BOW AND ARROW

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx16

This guy.

Hane: “When I first heard the intro, I thought this was about the scene of skating after finishing a conversation with the coach. So, I was actually told to go to the scene, and for a moment I thought about showing the scene where I say ‘I’m off,’ but I had this mission that I couldn’t go to Sekoto. So I thought that couldn’t be shown, and then I felt that it would be fine to show the figure rising up from loneliness. After being unleashed, I thought the appearance of rising onto the rink might also be okay, so in the end, I thought the final pose of the short program was something I made it through until the very end. However, since it’s a short program, I didn’t think I could go all the way, and I struggled with the final quadruple jump. But the quadruple jump wasn’t absent, it was just challenging in the end. The final spin is in the position that I rather consider my trademark; for someone who knows the program, at around 50 seconds, I finally do the first jump. The first jump in the short program is supposed to be difficult to execute. It feels like outside of that, it might not be acceptable, but if it’s not short, it starts.

Yone: “That’s about listening to the music, right?”

Hane: “This sound means it has to be this way. That’s not negotiable. After doing one jump and with no running start, to express the music while flying the Axel right in front of the judges is to fly in the middle, which is a pretty scary battle because the distance until the edge is extremely short. There’s also the feeling of not being able to fly boldly. It feels a bit insane, but I thought if I don’t put in my effort, it wouldn’t work, so I gathered various details I was particular about.”

Yone: “That’s amazing!”

Hane: “Later, there was a scene I thought about doing, but I couldn’t say it.”

Hane: “Well, yes. I’m grateful that you’re acknowledging that.”

Yone: “Ah, yes. I really feel like I want you to do that.”

Hane: “It’s true, isn’t it?”

This guy.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

Look.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kenshi Yonezu sent me the MV for “Kenshi Yonezu Has Disappeared”…

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

There’s nothing more precious than this, so you should really take a good look at it.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

Yonezu gets pressured sometimes too, huh…

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

“Awesome!!!”

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think the offer was made hoping that Yoshimitsu would do a little jump or spin.

I ended up writing a more serious program than I thought…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yonezu’s vision…

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t really understand, but please calm down.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

This top athlete really talks a lot…

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>12

An otaku getting excited during a conversation with their favorite.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

“Look at my Yuzuru… I was moved beyond words.”

I wonder if I can still continue as a player.

Nobunari Oda was able to do that much as well.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>14

They are no longer interested in competitive skating.

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

That guy.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to see a fast-paced triangle, so let’s have a four-person discussion with the original creator and the main voice actor.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>16

I understand that around Kenshi Yonezu, there are three faces swirling like Hillary and Leonidas.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

So it wasn’t patchwork, but they choreographed it as a continuous piece?

That’s outrageous.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve prepared the materials for the dance challenge! Let’s all give it a try!

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

>>20

Don’t say it so casually!

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>21

Moreover, the camera angle is different, so the difficulty is incredibly high, and I’ve done a configuration where jumping is risky at least twice.

That’s outrageous.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>21

It seems like it’s a continuous shot, but because the camera keeps switching, it doesn’t look like a no-cut scene, which is a bit of a waste.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think there were many people who wanted to compete skating to this song.

Gone…

26: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

Not only a music video, but even this kind of dialogue has been made public; I wonder if the original creator and the main voice actor are so noble that I’ll die from it…?

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

When he talks about figures, he starts speaking rapidly.

28: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The hardest part is being told to “live in the moment!” Well, that’s absolutely true…

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>28

But in the end, it was really Yuzuru Hanyu.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

If this is done in the actual performance, I could score 115 points or so.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

It is very enjoyable to see various creators, including the original author, passionately throw themselves into what they want to do.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even during my active years, I was great at syncing with the music.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>31

It’s impressive how they perform so well without even looking at the time, considering that the performance relies on the music.

33: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The responsibility of those who create anime is rapidly increasing.

It looks like a black hole is forming.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>33

The second term is extremely difficult.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>36

It’s the most exciting novice edition, after all.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>37

It’s definitely true that this is where you would expect Yonezu, but he’s probably not here…

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>33

If you search for ENGI, you’ll still find that “animation breakdown” and “bankruptcy” are suggested more often, so it’s not okay.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>33

Original creator: Strong Voice Actor Fan – I drew this manga to have this person voice it.

Singer & songwriter: Strong-fire manga fan I composed and sang a song for this manga.

Skating athletes featured in the MV: Enthusiastic singer fans danced on the rink as if they were in their prime.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>51

Voice actor: Strongly enthusiastic figure athlete fan – It became something I don’t quite understand before I knew it.

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

I’m a little taken aback…

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remembered the interview from Golden Kamuy.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

The people of ENGI also need to sacrifice themselves and make sacrifices.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I get drunk, I say I’m a genius, yet when I’m sober, I get shy. It was interesting to hear Yonezu in the discussion remarking on Yuzuru Hanyu’s strong sense of pride, saying, “His pride… is amazing… his words are dazzling…”

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m saying this based on the premise that without the medalists, this kind of thing wouldn’t have been realized in the first place.

Isn’t it getting hype regardless of the medalists?

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>43

Since two top artists are collaborating, there can only be elements that create excitement.

But the trigger was the medalist.

45: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>43

Yonezu says, “Read this, all of humanity.”

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yamazumi is huge!

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>46

In the thread image, Hanyu-kun is wearing skates, so there’s even more of a difference.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>47

Yuzuru is also on the lower side.

Figure skaters tend to gain weight because they have more height.

Being big physically can be a handicap in itself…

So there aren’t many tall people.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

Hanyu being a fan of Yonezu since his Hachi days feels heartwarming and age-appropriate.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>48

I couldn’t help but think that it was as if Main-chan had met Miko-chan for a moment.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yuzuru Hanyu often appears to have a gentle and quiet demeanor, but in interviews, he is quite challenging and assertive.

53: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

>>52

Top athletes compete by punching each other with numbers and abilities.

You can’t get by without being strong-willed.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>52

He’s the type of guy who, even in his active days, shows an aura of wanting to win and gets happy when the opponent trips.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>52

It seems that they yelled at their opponent when interrupted by them entering the movement line during practice before the competition.

62: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

>>55

That’s seriously something that will hurt both sides.

71: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>62

Actually, I got hurt because of that.

And even when urged to withdraw, the skating monster refuses and, while bleeding, still manages to secure second place.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>71

This is the beast of ice and flame…

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>52

There were many male fans for that reason, as there was also a flashy side that overflowed against the public image.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>56

It’s unfair that I like Winnie the Pooh.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>52

Since the night hawk is doing 4Lz, I will do it too, and since Kainori is doing 4S + 2T, I will increase the difficulty and do 4S + 3T.

Pride is amazing.

57: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Isn’t it a bit amusing that a film director with figure experience is shooting this?

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>57

The music video is based on figure skating.

If we have a budget, who are we going to call?

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

Use oneself as material.

A model of someone from Nico Nico Douga.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

That’s way too strong of a fire…

This is the gold medalist…

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

When a genuine gold medalist speaks, it has incredible persuasive power.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

You’re quite detailed…

Did you do a little skating?

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first quadruple was really tough, and I heard you got injured in the past, seriously?

70: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>66

When colliding at high speed in an unnatural position with all your weight on a solid ice sheet.

The human body breaks!

78: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>66

It was an injury that would affect until the end of the Pyeongchang Olympic season.

4Lo was passed over, but the Olympic title was defended.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

I am happy to be compared to a strong character like a night hawk, Yuzuru Hanyu.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m not charging for this much effort.

69: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

>>68

I have already taken the money.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is Tatsuya Kitani in the second season?

75: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

That Yuzuru Hanyu skating while bleeding was scary.

But the gaze was completely on point, and there was an atmosphere that couldn’t be stopped by anyone.

That Yuzuru Hanyu skating while bleeding was scary. But the gaze was completely on point, and there was an atmosphere that couldn't be stopped by anyone.

82: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>75

It will set a bad precedent, and I feel that I should originally abstain…

But by slipping here, I prevented the opponent I collided with from being criticized… and I have mixed feelings about that.

84: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>75

Who called this guy the Ice Prince?

Isn’t that the face of a demon?

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>84

Because I had been called an Ashura wearing frills before that…

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>92

Next to me, Shoma Uno was playing a game with a smile on his face, and it felt kind of scary.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>98

That person over there is super because they won the world championship right after suffering a serious injury following the Olympics…

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>84

The nickname among fans is “Asura in a frill” or “Rebelling Romeo”…

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>93

Terrible

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>93

Weren’t you called Yuzu ♥ or something?!

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

The text in the image looks like it’s being said very rapidly.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was happy to see that Yuzuru Hanyu has thoroughly read the latest edition of Medalist.

79: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

But it seems like Hanyu-kun would get angry at those who say that Yonezu is a nuisance.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>79

Should I make a version just for Yonezu?

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>80

Yonezu disappearing into the clouds while spinning in mid-air…

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought so when I heard it, but it turns out that even Yonezu thought the song was too fast for a figure skating program…

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>81

There was no problem since I could perfectly step at the busiest part of Chopin’s “Ballade No. 1” during the Olympics.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

Let’s create a version without Hanyu-kun and balance it out.

And the one who is also all alone.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

When faced with an athlete brimming with confidence backed by skill and achievement, weak otaku can only remain silent.

88: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Even though it’s called the Yonezu-only version, it’s just a regular PV.

90: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

First, I was terrified to hear that there are fewer than 10 people in the world who can jump a 4Lz.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yonezu is a man who, after all, cannot even be intoxicated by his own talent without relying on the power of alcohol…

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

Someone who is happy to be compared to Jun Yodaka.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

Most people would be happy.

I’m the strongest in the story.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>97

If you’re happy that it’s not at the Hanyu level, then it feels like you’re just a casual observer who hasn’t really paid attention…

It’s allowed because it’s Hanyu, but…

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>104

I’m glad that you think so highly of me, but it might be more like… not me.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

After this, there was news that seven stitches were used on the jaw and three stitches on the forehead. I thought you were a fighter.

After this, there was news that seven stitches were used on the jaw and three stitches on the forehead.

I thought you were a fighter.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>99

Did I just think “Alright!” because my body moves even if it’s just painful?

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yonezu “Inori-chan”

Hanyu “Inori”

That’s good, isn’t it…?

105: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Hanyu, who says he has given up everything for the Olympics.

Uno says that he is not doing anything special just because it’s the Olympics.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

Both are Persona fans.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

What is this? In other words, it’s not just including one successful attempt of a 4Lutz stitched together.

Are you saying that it was successful and that it was slipping in the overall structure?

Is the retired skater? What?

108: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>107

I haven’t retired from skating…

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>108

Ah, hi, excuse me.

I wanted to say that the player is retiring.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

Skaters who like medalists can use this freely if they perform an act that surpasses it!

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>109

A performance that surpasses the world record!?

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was watching the conversation, but Yuzuru was talking the whole time, and Yoasobi was almost like an accompaniment; it was funny.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>110

That’s because we’re talking about skating.

Rather than talking about songs

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m going to jump 4Lz+3S too.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

Why isn’t such an amazing person participating in the Olympics…?

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>115

I’m making money, you know.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>115

You’ve already taken money twice, so isn’t that more than enough!?

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>115

The tour to gain eligibility for participation is tough.

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>115

Because I’ve become a professional.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even after graduating from high school baseball and entering professional baseball, or graduating from university ekiden and joining an athletics corporate team, it’s not referred to as retirement, right?

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

If elementary school students can fly, then a quadruple jump must be easy, right?

119: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If we’re talking about whether it’s strange for Uno to have stayed holed up in his room without stepping outside during the expedition and just played Wild Action, then yeah, it’s pretty strange.

121: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I watched a commentary video by a pro skater.

Haven’t you brushed up since your competitive days…? I laughed at the evaluation that was like Tsuji-sensei watching a night hawk.

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>121

I’m amazed that the base score is higher than the match…

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>135

You can try again many times even if you fail.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have money.

There is gold.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

Did you see it?

Do it.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

In competitive skating, you have to compete in the next tournament before your body has recovered.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

After watching the MV, let’s watch SEIMEI as well.

You can see Hanyu’s monstrous performance!

It was the highest score in the world.

They were slipping at last week’s show too.

Why can you still jump quadruples so aggressively even though you’ve stopped competing for a long time? It’s scary!

132: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>127

I can skate when my body feels good because I’ve stopped competing.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is Inori-chan a relative referred to as Inori?

130: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>128

Because we are both friends and rivals who skate the same.

134: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>128

I wonder if it’s a perspective like that of a cute, promising junior skater…

136: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>134

Hikari-chan doesn’t really understand that she is Hikari-chan.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>136

Does that mean you can see through Inori-chan’s true essence?

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

Everyone, let’s use this as a reference and post our dance videos!

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>129

I want to see Manirin dance!!!

Shinari is fine too.

131: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Calling the transition from amateur to professional for athletes “retirement” doesn’t seem appropriate, after all.

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

This is Yuzuru Hanyu from ten years ago.

139: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The very first jump is usually done in about 20 seconds.

I don’t do it after spinning or stepping because it’s tiring.

But I want to include the jump at the beginning of this song where the light flies, so I’ll spin and add a step for about 50 seconds.

I jumped a 4Lz because I don’t want to lose to the night hawk.

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>139

Scary.

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you can do this, you can aim to become a medalist.

Isn’t it easy?

144: Japan Otaku Reviews

Which is stronger, the latest episode’s structure of Hikaru-chan or the other?

145: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a personal opinion when Hanyu fans say they don’t need Yonezu, so I won’t deny it.

Yonezu tracks the perfect step sequence here → Hanyu glides over the ice with a sound matching the edge cutting the ice → Yonezu ripples the water surface as if tracing it.

Since I couldn’t help but see Inori-san and Tsukasa-sensei encouraging each other, the dual lead role MV is necessary.
