Here's the evidence that Yuzuru could carry his own show with just a few guest skaters and without any jumps at all from him as his ankle was still healing from a serious practice injury.
But No one cared- it was clear the audience was so delighted to hear him chat fluently and from the heart. His programs are a delight to watch and the original costumes still fit!
Part chat show with the guests, part exhibition skates from Yuzu, from guests and group numbers.
Even a video link to Spain to Javier Fernandez who was invited to Japan but couldn't attend. It was his birthday and the early morning skate he performed was slightly wobbly -Yuzu's face was a picture-He is so honest but passed it off by getting the audience to sing Happy Birthday to his friend Another early glimpse of the natural entertainer and superstar he is. Even without jumps his programs are mesmerising but the beautiful and strong character shines through even when forcing his friend Mura to perform a difficult jump and entry. A star is born and now has gone on to become a global phenomenon.
