PapemelroticPAT And there is nothing wrong with that approach. I stand by what I said before: Mr. Hanyu embodied the characters and essence of "Medalist" very well. In portraying them fused with his own style, that, in actuality, makes it ALL THE MORE HIMSELF. :D 11.5/🎖️ 08:49 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT That is why he struggled when he thought about portraying only himself in the MV (made me laugh a bit in a good way, that part XD). But honestly? That is completely valid. By now, it is probably natural for him to step into a character or role... 11.4/🎖️ 08:45 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT ...not only his ice-skating skills alone, but also his sense of SHOWMANSHIP. Ice-skating is not just a sport; for him, it also seems to be a stage where he can freely entertain + playfully express his creativity and interests in various ways. 11.3/🎖️ 08:44 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT And what do performers, especially true-blue ones like him, do? You see, I do not know much about ice-skating besides failed attempts as a kid (XD) + husband influencing me to read Medalist, but even I can tell what makes Mr. Hanyu a classic is... 11.2/🎖️ 08:43 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT While his skills as THE Yuzuru Hanyu are undeniably impeccable + sentiments of "Go, just be yourself!" is good and lovely... personally, I also think it is a bit *too* idealistic in this context. Because realistically... he IS a performer, 'no? 11.1/🎖️ 08:43 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT Hmm, guess I would also add my take about Mr. Hanyu being asked to "just portray himself" or how certain comments definitively observed that he "portrayed no one but himself" on the MV? True enough, yes. I agree, but only to a *certain* extent. 11/🎖️ 08:40 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT Once again, congratulations on the excellent reception of the "BOW AND ARROW" MV, short program and talk! Kindly know that when I say "insanity", it is a compliment for both men's fierce passion and dedication as trailblazers in their own fields. 10.4/🎖️ 08:38 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT There is a "seasonal star", and there is what we call "a star for all seasons". I think I do not need to explain where both of them belong here, as past + present works speak for themselves already... and will continue to, alongside future works. 10.3/🎖️ 08:35 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT ...seen and felt, whether through professional crafts or personal goals. And that, simply put, is why both the husband and Mr. Hanyu consistently remain as one of the top in their own fields, regardless of changing times and competitive trends. 10.2/🎖️ 08:35 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT But personally, even with me usually being quite long-winded in discussions, those words are the only way I could explain the collaboration. Different ways of expression and even taken actions, sure, but shared intensity + insanity is very much... 10.1/🎖️ 08:33 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT What I would only like to add are the words: INSANITY and INTENSITY. Everyone wrote all types of analysis about the husband and Mr. Hanyu's similarities (more so when the talk came out), and each worth reading too (gotta repost some myself hehe)... 10/🎖️ 08:33 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT It's entertaining to observe, in a positive and awkwardly cute way (especially those who try to communicate and bridge the language barrier in posts/replies, aww). Realizations about the Sagittarius connection to the song are becoming known too. :3 9.1/🎖️ 08:30 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT Nothing much to add since everyone has said everything they could already (even until now; sometimes I get the feeling that the husband's Japanese fans experience "culture shock" a bit when they see how very active international Fanyus are hahaha X). 9/🎖️ 08:30 PM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT Hope I did not sound rude, but sugarcoating/being dishonest towards his genuine response to the husband's gift, in my opinion, would be a disservice/disrespect to how expressive he was about all he thought and felt about himself and his artistry. :) 4.2/🌐 04:05 AM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT So chin up, Sir, and look straight at yourself and your work. Adding/expressing a bit more confidence, respect and pride in all of you have done (and will still do!) won't hurt. That, and congratulations again + best of luck on the world stage too! 4.1/🌐 04:05 AM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT In believing that others are looking down on us, we are the ones first and foremost looking down on ourselves (especially in this case, when the overall reception of your art and its lasting impact is very much the opposite! :). *husband nodding* XD 4/🌐 04:01 AM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT Trying to lighten the mood hahaha, but seriously: that man is pickier than me. Do you know he is not that easily impressed/moved? While more open and emotional now hehe, for him to be admiring your works even back then... that says so much already. 3.5/🌐 03:58 AM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT If anything, the mainstream media here is the one missing out in not featuring your works any way they can, given your international accolades and connections made as further proof of your work's legacy. Also, just look at the picky husband! XDD 3.4/🌐 03:56 AM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT Asking this with utmost respect (swear my tone is friendly over here, ahhh XDD), since I also want to return the honesty: why would you measure/associate your enduring and limitless artistry with something so fickle and SOULLESS (mainstream media)? 3.3/🌐 03:55 AM Mar 18th from web

PapemelroticPAT Where is the HYPE at? Who is the HYPE about? What to possibly HYPE for? Here for a short season or two, attention span and article spam gone the next. No depth or meaning to it; just mindlessly after the next big click or hit (or the next cash cow). 3.2/🌐 03:51 AM Mar 18th from web
