Question from a reader:
Have many people started watching men’s figure skating thanks to Yuzuru Hanyu’s achievements?
Attracted by Yuzuru Hanyu’s Charm
Recently, I’ve heard that more and more people are starting to watch men’s figure skating because of Yuzuru Hanyu’s performances. I’m one of them. Initially, I was invited by a friend to watch on TV, but I was instantly
captivated by Hanyu’s performance. His skating was so graceful, it felt like he was dancing in the sky, and I couldn’t take my eyes off him.
First Figure Skating Experience
That day, we decided to watch Hanyu’s performance at a friend’s house. My friend suggested we gather a bit earlier, so I made it a point to arrive early, but in the end, my friend was late, and I found myself snacking alone while watching TV. The snacks were so delicious that before I knew it, I had finished an entire bag (laughs). By the time my friend arrived, I was already engrossed in Hanyu’s charm and began passionately discussing his performance.
Surprising Discoveries and Emotional Highs
As I watched Hanyu’s performance, I realized just how incredible his expressiveness and passion were. In particular, the small smiles he showed during his routine and the look of relief after his jumps left a lasting impression on me, and I found myself on the verge of tears multiple times. My friend was also inspired by my enthusiasm, and we cheered and felt moved together. Moments like these, where we can share excitement, really capture the essence of watching sports.
