you're funny - thinking that this portion of the fan base has ever been relatively normal. I'd wonder how long we wait before hearing sekret baby conspiracies, but this particular fandom seems to view Hanyu as asexual, so a sekret baby would be well beyond their comprehension.
ok but skating needs more sekret babies blogs not less if only because I like being able to say "ok maybe I post about cpom too much but also I'm not making a sekret baby blog so I think I'm ok"you're funny - thinking that this portion of the fan base has ever been relatively normal.

during the previous Olympics. Now why they viewed Fernandez and Ohtani as gay, I don't know.
@Rukia - see, this is why this thread never stood a chance at being 'relatively normal' - the fanbase is way too, uhm... diverse, lol.Ace? Are you referring to his love for "ice-chan"?
He was viewed as straight by many chinese fanyus, many of whom were heartbroken over his revelation.
He was viewed as gay (and non-binary) by many on twitter. Some shipped him with Shohei Ohtani, and others with Javier Fernandez before he "betrayed"
Kween actually followed through on the sekret baby wish - has anyone else ever done so other than Miki Ando (and hers was really more sekret father, correct)?
I think the first anyone heard of Ando's baby was after the birth.
anyway, hopefully he and his spouse will be very happy together.
I will never ever understand how grown-up people can behave like this.
I promise this is the last one, simply had to post it
To their credit, several "fanyus" are also calling it all out.
I used to be constantly surprised how many older women do this, actually. Not 75 year old grannies as was the joke earlier in the thread, but many seem mid-late 20s, early thirties. The fetishising comments from the 40 year olds are really something too.
Heh. Some suggest that it only got crazy after he won the gold, but tbh, with the way Japan treats skating and skaters, it's not surprising that it was crazy before that. And Asian fandoms especially can be crazy, and then Japan has all that pop culture influence through its media (anime and all), so especially people like him picked up those kinds of fans around the world.
Well, it's clear, reading just that one blog, that nothing in their everyday lives involves interacting with non-Fanyus except more than absolutely necessary.
You made it through the entire blog? I am impressed. I had to give up halfway through it because I can't stand this obsessive whining.
I mean, reporting an article for "slander" simply because it said he mentioned skating more than his marriage in his announcement, should make it clear. And apparently because the author said she didn't like the choice of his words with the "nyuuseki" thing. At least according to google translate.
It's like watching a trainwreck. I mean, like I said to @On My Own over in the CarPon cheer thread, it's still Sunday morning where I'm at and there's not much to do during the ice resurfacing at Cranberry Cup, lol.
Hey I agree! But sometimes it gets funny/deranged and you can't avoid it
And tbh, it's an intriguing phenomenon sociologically. There was a thread on here about fan behaviour, if you recall, the Swifties.
It's like an accident. You don't want to watch, but somehow have to. We are all human and love to judge others. The Fanyus are just too good to be left out.Hey I agree! But sometimes it gets funny/deranged and you can't avoid it

ETA on Monday that I really haven't been following the gossip/speculation online - this "article" popped up in my regular Google search for figure skating news. I saw that Golden Skate tweeted a link on 9/17 (presumably to the same one but has since deleted their tweet.
As reported yesterday (Sept. 16) by Koreaboo, "an English-language web portal and media website focused on sharing K-Pop content":
Figure Skating Icon Yuzuru Hanyu’s Wife Said To Be A Violinist 8 Years Older Than Him
Figure skating icon Yuzuru Hanyu announced his marriage in August 2023. His wife is rumored to be Mayuko Suenobu, a violinist.
This video of their collaboration on the ice from the 2020 Fantasy on Ice tour was included in the article: https://twitter.com/anko_smile2525/status/1299125997288132608
"Idol" in the popstar/boyband/girlband sense - so this woman likely quit her group/stopped singing. (think about it in the "American Idol" sense I guess - all those "Who?" winners and one hit wonders can be called "retired idols" in some sense)
It is speculation/gossip.
Hanyu the 8th.
