Yuzuru Hanyu 羽生結弦: A Decade in Review【MAD / AMV】

thank you yuzuru for these past ten years. what a journey it has been. (you know the drill - turn up your volume and read below for details!)
please be aware that this video contains clips of injured yuzuru during the years 2014, 2017, 2018! (no footage of the actual injury)
wow. i've always felt the whole "labor of love" feeling whenever i finished a video, but truly, this video really felt like the peak? the culmination? of that feeling. sure, i haven’t been here for the whole decade (only half of it), but what a journey it has been. he came into this decade as an ambitious, promising young skater, fresh off of a junior world title, and he leaves it as a two-time olympic champion, two-time world champion, four-time grand prix final champion, record breaker, and an influential figure at the top of his sport, inspiring countless scores of people.
please be aware that this is definitely not a comprehensive overview of his whole entire career this decade (was very upset i couldn’t fit his 4t-3a in this video, i tried sooo hard). he has accomplished many, many things, but i had to find the right balance between text and the video itself. i didn’t want to the text to obscure the main message of the video because the viewer was too busy trying to read text that appears for 0.3 seconds (a real struggle fitting all this text in already, trust me). i know this video is pretty text-heavy than my usual, but i want the text to highlight his accomplishments. honestly this video was a challenge. i’m usually one to edit according to the music, but this time i had chronological restraints that honestly drove me up the wall. i wanted to reach the perfect build with the music so a lot of my favorite moments couldn’t be fit in. hopefully, i accomplished recapping this for all of you in an inspirational way.
making this made me appreciate so many firsts that yuzuru has accomplished this decade, both personal and groundbreaking for the sport. you could see how much i struggled to fit the later years into the video (definitely shorter than the beginning first few years lmao) because i got carried away by how much there was (2012 worlds, i’m looking at you). if you’re wondering why i decided to include clips of injured yuzuru...well, i didn’t want to ignore it. i feel like it was just as much a part of the journey as anything else. i’m sure it drums up a lot of bad memories for both yuzuru and us, but i think there is also merit in remembering it. we shouldn’t forget the personal setbacks and triumphs yuzuru had over the course of this decade. it wasn’t a smooth ride. i know we all know about his injuries, but i think it deserves a part in this story. i actually debated a lot about including them. agonized even. but it just felt wrong to gloss over it, so yes they are here in this video. briefly, but they are there.
and like, major thanks to google’s 2019 year in search because honestly this video was not in my plans at all. iike 0 thoughts. i was thinking about working on another video in my free time (shhhhh) but then i watched the google video and i was like SHIT the decade is ending i actually gotta do something memorable. and then this started lmao. i think my favorite part of the videos were the parallels/time lapses from when he was a young un in 2010 to where he is now as a goat in 2019. and obviously the parts in the music where it picks up massively because that never fails to make me emotional.
anyways, i will not stand for anyone calling yuzuru “washed up” or that “his time is over” when he has already done so much more than so many of us. the decade may be ending, but that doesn’t mean his dreams and ambitions have. and i’m not just talking about figure skating related ones. whatever yuzuru chooses to do with his career and life later. what an impactful existence in this world that we have been so lucky to be alive at the same time to witness.

YUZURU unico,inigualable ,magico ,talentoso y se esfuerza como nadie para dar siempre lo mejor de el,por eso tantos lo aman...yo tambien!!!!👏🏻👏🏻❤🇦🇷

[@gina1569]

Honestly gave me goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes. When anyone asks why he is so important, why he is the GOAT, why he is one of the best sportsmen alive, I will show this video. I hope Yuzuru sees this and has a moment to see all of his achievements so far, and the strength he has that carried his through the past ten years, captured so wonderfully in one video.

[@aeterniti]

hhfhsfdslakfjdskfdas if he does see it, i hope he feels that this video did him justice lakjdfaklfdjaskl but thank you for your kind words! thanks for supporting and sharing this video!

すごいです。この１０年の羽生君の道のり。こうやって振り返ると人間じゃないほどの (^_^;)偉業実績のオンパレード。選手生命の短いフィギュア選手では異例の長いキャリアのチャンピオン。こんなの日本で作ってほしい。日本人こそがアスリートとしての羽生君のすごさを知らなすぎるから。

[@sierrakks]

as a fan of yuzu since sochi, this video is absolutely amazing. he says he hates being called a legend since it dwells on past glory, but he had inspired me for many years and continues to inspire me everyday with each of his performances.

[@morinagaeiko4473]

凄いです❗ 栄光の羽生選手。✨

[@anhnguyenthingoc9504]

More importantly, after a decade, he is still on the road. I hope he win his first 4CC and land 4A.

[@whitneylu8612]

I hope Yuzuru can hang on as long as he can. Do not retire until he gets a third gold medal of Olympics 2022 in Beijing! He is so entertaining and colorful to watch. I feel so fortunate to have met him at his best ages ! He is a super hero for his fan all over the world.

[@b__lynz6427]

Such a beautiful tribute to his journey till date. The way he fights through the hardship and the injuries and champions over them is truly inspiring.

[@fouraxel9847]

he is a hero

[@kimeris_]

This is amazing, absolutely breathakingly beautiful it had me in tears as I recall the moments I first saw Yuzu to now. He has grown so much. I remember the spark he lit up inside my heart that made me who I am today, made me fight for my dreams, stand up to my bullies, pursue my dream school, and become a better person, striving never giving up. The ending of the decade is painful, full of hardship, but I see a new light sparking. Don't ever give up Yuzu! I love you! We love you, and you will always be our champion, the number one in my heart and surely to all others out there to. You have our support, strive for your dream. I'll be seeing you in more competitions and the next olympics. There's still a long journey up ahead, We'll be waiting.😊😊😊

[@kaoru7098]

試合の採点は、見てる私達の方が正確‼️何より人気が証明されている‼️永遠に世界一のスケーター

[@ZhangXiaoYiyi]

He will always be the best... That's a fact. One and only. Edit: I am not crying😭😭😭

[@jayjaybunny357]

I'm sobbing. Came here after his SP at the beijing olympics. No matter what the results will be, he will always be my favorite skater and I am so proud of him and all his achievements. His performance always moves me to tears and he puts his entire soul into them. Thank you Yuzuru Hanyu

[@naveenenganesan8173]

He excels in everything he does...Love him.

[@rained5757]

And now he has the 4CC and the Career Grand Super Slam, the only man to hold it. It's been a hell of a journey, Mister Hanyu...

[@salvina7074]

I cried....

[@claudiaespinoza7572]

Grande Yuzuru !!!!! BRAVO!!

[@Capspao]

That's definitely a good way to start the decade watching this video

[@aeterniti]

heheheheh always good to start off the decade with yuzuru :) thanks for watching!

[@leratomonethi4265]

What an amazing video! What an incredible journey! I bow to this incredibly talented global icon. There will NEVER BE another! GOAT

[@aeterniti]

thanks for watching!!!

[@leratomonethi4265]

You made me cry! Absolutely heart wrenching, considering....

[@TenToChiTo]

Ungly crying watching this after today's retirement announcement.

[@carollin813]

This video is so inspiring! What a honor to witness a legend born! ISU may rob the scores and medals he deserves however they will never take away the love and respect toward him from all fans!

[@kabiraningangom1248]

The irony is that more than half the skating audience will not be there when Yuzuru won't be there. The ISU thinks they are infallible. Once Yuzuru leaves it's popularity is going to go down. Failing to acknowledge such a talent is their failure.

[@rhinyhanyu4525]

This video just makes me cry😭😭I love him so much

[@dominikazawieja2236]

He is my hero. My king. My sunshine and much more. Thank You, Yuzu for this decade and cheers for the next one!! 💕💕 I cannot wait to see what life will bring to You and me. But whatever it will be I will be always by Your side to cheer for You and support You 🥇🥇❤❤

[@yanfenhe2819]

What an existing decade of Yuzuru Hanyu. I believe you, Yuzu. I watch the figure skating because you make it so beautiful and sensational, and I believe that you will deliver more and more meaningful performance in the future. Please maintain your health and move forward. I will continue to support you, even if you are not in the competition.

[@joonverse995]

Oh my god I am crying :(( I love this so much!!! Thank you for making it! God, words can't express how proud of him I am. Yuzuru Hanyu, the greatest of all time! Falling, standing up and keep on going.

[@aeterniti]

aww thanks for your kind words!!! i'm glad i succeeded in making you emotional hahahah

[@Ire-yf6xe]

Legend never die 💥💥💥💥❤❤❤❤

[@MsHantubelau]

Such an inspiration

[@uyihanyu827]

Thank you, and thank you Yuzuru!

[@brettshair3151]

This hits hard after today Thank you for everything Yuzu......

[@zynpllcnn]

Today marks the end of his 3rd olympics and i have been feeling quite down i think his frustration and sadness has been transferred to me as i felt as if i lost the title, as if i fell down... Thank you for this video because while it made me cry, it also allowed me to remember his amazing journey that spanned 10+ years

[@lovedhues1493]

I'm not crying you are TT

[@syren4731]

He will always be the greatest skater of all time

[@linkinForever1111]

WOW!! Nice job!!! Great editing! What a great athletes and human being. I hope Hanyu can achieve all his dream happily and healthily. All the best luck to him in 4cc and WC 2020. May he land his 4A beautifully.

[@aeterniti]

[@rawia-2747]

Goosebumps

[@XiaoZhanLovebot]

Thank you for this video, it's been an incredible journey as his fan and we continue to be inspired by him daily, through his successes, through his low points. Whether or not he continues to win medals, the place he's taken in our hearts can never be shaken. All I wish for him is to stay healthy and to be happy doing what he loves 🌟

[@aeterniti]

you're welcome!! indeed it has, looking back at these ten years, i'm always left in awe and without words seeing all that he has gone thru and achieved these years. well said! he's already proven himself and his character time and time again. may he achieve all his dreams this decade as well!

[@patriciarenata9455]

[@vall3643]

Thank you, aeterniti, for the breathtaking video. Yuzuru Hanyu’s the history Maker, these ten years he was creating and giving beauty, happiness, perfection to us. Wish him all the best, to be healthy, confident and strong and fulfill what he plans. May he go ahead and continue with wings!

[@jasminejoseahdaquiz9936]

I felt like a drama queen crying while watching this. But after this Beijing Olympics, I just can't stop myself from crying. I know I've said that I'll support whatever the results will be but my tears won't stop just thinking that "it seems the world is against him".

[@irinaniculiu]

Watching again and again and will watch again. It is uplifting! A decade of passion, fighting, conquering , resolve and stamina, never fretting, always going forward. That's why he leaves this decade besides all his records as the 2 times consecutive Olympic Champion . History has recorded it! Thank you for the marvelous video!

[@camusanchez1259]

Yuzuru Hanyu ya tracendio en el tiempo es un atleta y un bailarin en el hielo es unico nadie como el .

[@yuzuyuzu-hb2il]

Thank you for this amazing video. This makes me cry!. At any time when he had a lot of hardships- walls, he didn't fail to get over the walls with his strong will. And surely, he is now on the process of developing. He will open the door of his new era . It seems to me that he is not only an amazing figure skater, but also a seeker after the truth.

[@sherryst14]

It was quite an experience knowing his journey from the beginning till the end of his competitive career. Thank you so much for showing us what it's figure skating😊.

👏👏👏👏Gracias por este hermoso vídeo de la gran trayectoria del maravilloso e inigualable Rey del hielo👑 Yuzuru Hanyu, yo lo descubrí antes de las olimpiadas del 2018, aunque me hubiera encantado haberlo visto antes, recuerdo que lo vi en un vídeo en youtube y que de impactada por su presencia que ilumina la pista, su mágico patinaje que parece que flota , su espíritu infantil que se refleja en esa hermosa sonrisa que posee, nunca había visto a alguien tan cautivador como el , cuando lo empece a conocer me sorprendieron sus logros aun siendo tan joven, el ser tan educado y respetuoso , pero también me sorprendió conocer todos los obstáculos que ha tenido que derribar , Yuzuru posee una gran determinación para superar las barreras que me ha echo admirarlo más, nunca se rinde aunque este enfermo o cansado y aunque ya tiene dos medallas olímpicas siempre da su máximo esfuerzo como el guerrero que es, por todo esto es que el gran Yuzuru Hanyu es el patinador mas querido y famoso del mundo, el se merece todo nuestro reconocimiento y le agradezco que nos siga permitiendo verlo patinar, le deseo salud y felicidad, porque triunfador ya lo es, siempre te apoyare hermoso Yuzuru, larga vida al Rey👑💖💖.
