Fantasy on Ice Makuhari 2022 Day 3 - Impressions

After a full day, I have finally processed what I've watched - FaOI Makuhari 2022 Day 3 - live broadcast.

From the previously released photos of Day 1, I had such high expectations to have sooo many camera-focused Yuzu moments - while that did not come true, the center-Yuzu shots we got were so endearing. I was smiling so hard from the campiness of it all, starting with the traditional FaOI introduction.

(It's going to be a long post, so read more below - media included).

Back when I was "learning" about who Yuzuru Hanyu is, I stumbled upon recordings of previous FaOI & other ice shows - I distinctively remember there was this one video where the announcer introduces Yuzu, and he starting jumping when the announcer goes "Yuzuru" - and lands on "Hanyu". I was never able to identify from which ice show that was - and while the intro music of FaOI was playing and moment for Yuzu got closer, I kept on thinking maybe he does it now. AND YUZU DID! "Yuzuru" *jumps* "Hanyu" *lands*. (Sound On)

I was smiling so hard. And then that camera-work. Thank you, Yuzu, for making even the people behind the screen feel seen (I haven't realized until now that the people watching the cinemas saw a huge Yuzu doing this.)

The whole J-Disco number was so fun to watch and in the panned out shots my eyes kept drifting towards Yuzu's spot - not necessarily because I was specifically looking for him, but because he seemed to put his heart and soul into that choreography, as always. He simply was more into it that everyone else. Oh, that MJ circle-moonwalk thingy at the beginning of Afternoon Parade ... so smooth, so cool.

The other skaters were all so fun to watch, but, not gonna lie, Nobu killed it with his Kinky Boots program. Kaori was such a joy to watch, Mai too with her killer 2Ts. Keiji, loved both his programs. What the hell was that Swan parody thing? How am I supposed to watch Notte Stellata now without flashbacks to this parody?!

Yuzu's Real Face! The moment I've been waiting for since the first pics dropped. That program is so wild and crazy and angsty and full of great moves and expression even though it's rough around the edges - but the beauty of it lies in its rawness. Not gonna lie, that water cup moment felt a bit underwhelming because he poured it on his hair instead of face, but it's okay, it was still iconic. (And what do you mean, Yuzu, that you had no idea what would happen when you poured water on you like that?? That us, poor fans, would simply nod along and move on from it?? You knew very well we'd go crazy!)

About the elements from the program - that besti squat is on equal footing if not above the casual spread eagle (for reference, here).

Yuzu's 3A is a monster jump and when performed with anger, it is the king of jumps. That pistol lunge, I so wish we'd seen it from the front and not the back (damn it, Asahi TV cameramen, do a better job). Once more I've been reminded that Yuzu has amazing spins.

That ending pose and the change in attitude - whiplash!!

I felt a change of energy from him when he came back for the finale - and noticed that there was no black bracelet on his right arm. I swear that everytime I saw that bare wrist I kept wondering why my gaze was drawn there. Turns out, Yuzu tossed his bracelet along with the infamous water cup, but all good - he found it afterwards, we have photo confirmation of that.

The finale, even with the bracelet-hiccup, was fun to watch - Kaori: a ray of sunshine - the artist's voice was so good and it was fun to watch the light choreography. Still, those feather things - they remind me of Furbies for some reason. Oh, and check this out: I swear I almost did one heart in return.

I did not want the show to end - but it ended in the best possible way: 4T3A2T1Lo1Lo1Lo (the loops with rippon arms -> they are now called Yuzu-fairy jumps).

Yuzu fist-bumping everyone, his cuteness when he did the heart arms with Elladj was killer. And, of course, the traditional ARIGATO GOZAIMASHITA! What an experience.

I am so looking forward to the next live broadcast and to the recorded ones as well. My first time watching FaOI and it paid off!

rush! here we go again

i really like own my mind the second time around. i still think it was a really solid opening song

gossip still fucks hard, moving on

the beginning of timezone reminds me of if i can dream, and the rest of the song reminds me of any generic pop rock song from the 2000s, and i don't mean that as an insult cuz like half of my liked songs are generic pop rock songs from the 2000s 💀 i do resent that critic saying this song was like black parade era mcr cuz like WHERE?????? overall i like it, but that mf gave me way higher expectations with that description and that's why i almost always go into things totally blind 😭

okay, so... i can appreciate now the silliness of bla bla bla. i don't hate it, but i don't think i would listen to it on purpose on my free time. it does sound better to me on the second listen tho so that's good. even though i know they're supposed to be funny, the lyrics are still what puts me off the song, but i don't think it's terrible. thomas, vic, and ethan did a great job as always

made up my mind about baby said, i do like it. i still need to watch the lyric video for my queen, but i like it regardless

my opinion on gasoline has not changed much. not a fan of the chorus, but the rest of the song is good. i just don't know if it's good enough to make up for it and for the bad taste it left in my mouth for months. maybe i need a few more listens to make up my mind. also the self importance of it puts me off

on my first listen i called feel forgettable and i was right cuz for some reason i thought it was a ballad and i was surprised when it wasn't lmao. it's not bad, but again i think i need more time with it to fully make up my mind. but it's not a song that stands out, for good or for bad, to me. lmao its such a forgettable kinda song i called it "listen" at first??? where did i get that from zksnsks

don't wanna sleep is good i really like it. this one reminds me a little of revenge era mcr. fuck that one critic i'm still mad ksnskdjdkd

again, silly lyrics, i get it. kool kids is just not for me. and i know what i said was kinda mean but like, i hope the dick damiano choked on to make his voice sound like that was worth it idk

BOOORINGGGGG. THEY MADE A BORING BALLAD I'M DEVASTED THEY WERE MY BALLAD KINGS

read your diary is still good, i still like it. i'm very upset i haven't seen anyone say own my mind or read your diary are their faves of the album cuz i like them a lot nnkdsnsksn

i need more time with the chorus of mrk chpmn, cuz i like the rest of the song, but the chorus is... idk. i'm spelling it like that btw cuz i know this website is full of fucking weirdos and i don't want my blog to show up if you search for that man's name. which, i'm still not crazy about the fact that they named the after him. wait, there's something so anime intro about the chorus why did my brain come up with that ksnsksnsksns

LA FINE IS THAT BITCH. THE CUNT. THE IT GIRL. THE NEXT DRAG SUPERSTAR

this one is on me actually for hoping for like, some kind of sequel to l'altra dimensione due to the lyrics "il ballo della vita" 🤡 it's okay, i think i need to listen to it more to know how I feel. i've been saying this a lot about this album

we know how i feel about mammamia. slay queen. literally

weird i just hear static

we know how i feel about the loneliest, she's one of my girls ❤️

bonus: GIVE ME TOUCH ME

overall the second listen was waaay more enjoyable without like, the pressure to like it and anxiety of wondering what is it gonna sound like

i still don't know if i would pay for a ticket to watch them during this era tho, and that's how i measure if i like something or not ksnsksn

GCW: Amerikaz Most Wanted Review

I know I'm pretty late with this, but I just got around to watching it and wanted to share my thoughts. This was also my first GCW show, so there's a lot of people here I'm not familiar with and only a few that I am.

Overall, I really enjoy the commentary teams on this show (I say teams because I'm pretty sure people were swapped in and out of the booth, but I'm not positive on that). It's a really casual feel, almost like Hoodslam but a bit more serious.

The video packages are incredible on this show, the one explaining the Charles Mason/Effy feud was my personal favorite.

Thoughts on the card, match by match:

The six man scramble to start the show, I knew nobody here but it was fast paced and interesting.

Matt Cardona vs Starboy Charlie should've opened the show, in my opinion. I haven't seen any of Charlie's previous work but I was impressed, and I was blown away by Cardona's promo. This is how Impact should be booking the man.

The Triple Threat Match was what I was looking forward to the most, I'm a big fan of Masha Slamovich from her work on Impact and I've been following Hoodslam for a few months so I know Dark Sheik. There was some very innovative moves in this match, a personal favorite was Masha chokeslamming Sawyer Wreck off of the shoulders of Dark Sheik. This was probably my runner up for match of the night, and I can say now I'm also a Sawyer Wreck fan.

The six man tag... holy shit, the six man tag. Easily match of the night, I'd even put it as match of the year in all of wrestling period. I'm not familiar with any of the people involved, but man do I want to see more! Just the innovative moves from Komander, Gringo Loco with a catching top rope powerbomb, the flipping powerbomb... I could go on and on. Seriously, watch this match!

Joey Janela vs Pagano, I would say my reaction to this was pleasantly surprised. I never really cared for Janela in AEW which is where I know him from, so I wasn't expecting much going into the match. What I got was a solid hardcore match and a kickass entrance from the man- I'd be lying if I said I wasn't down for a rematch down the road.

Willie Mack vs Jimmy Lloyd was a bit of a let down, but then that might be because it followed two badass matches. I'm not familiar with either man, but Willie Mack's finisher is pretty badass.

Effy vs Charles Mason was incredible, both the video package and the match itself. I love Mason's look and the creepy way he wrestles, he's like this weird sexual monster and it works for him. Was also happy to see Allie Katch and Dark Sheik get involved, I'm looking forward to seeing Thrussy in action.

Los Mazisos vs RockNes Monsters, I don't know either team but I really enjoyed this one. Personal highlights for me were Yuma going full Looney Tunes with his "put 'em up, put 'em up" before fainting, and Yuma dropping his own partner through the door. Very funny, very badass.

Nick Gage vs Tony Deppen... man, what a straight up brawl. The match was great, the finish was amazing, I also really like the energy of Gage's entrance and how overly hype he gets for both it and his ring intro. Didn't know him before, but I'm a fan now.

El Hijo del Vikingo vs Blake Christian, I had to seek this match out on YouTube as it wasn't part of the broadcast but I'm glad I did. It's a really solid, high flying match- I was most impressed by the flipping dive to the outside Vikingo hit early on.

Overall, an incredible show and highly recommended.

hihi~ have you read any read-worthy social media aus? i've been scouring the internet for like- tumblr aus, youtube aus, streamer aus, wrong number aus BUT THEYRE JUST SO HARD TO FIND ;-; thankss~ :)

I'm so sorry this took so long and it ended up being half-assed T.T it's just been sitting in my drafts for far too long and I just wanted it out JFASKASFH. I'm ngl, I haven't read a couple of these BUT I thought the summaries were fun so I added them in HAHAHAH. That being said, I just tried to stick to the AU's you listed cause tbh idk what classifies as a true SMAU LOL.

As always, pls check WARNINGS, TAGS, and SUMMARIES for fics before reading and make sure you’re taking care of yourselves (since mental health is key!) Stay safe besties <3

ctrl f for youtube, twitter, streamer, and wrong number!

press play by airblends (T) 3k /MatsuHana/ YouTube, “Makki, you want in on our intro?” Oikawa gestures with his hand.“Nah, I already promised Issei we’d do one for his channel. There are only so many intros a man can film in a day.”“Issei, huh?” Oikawa’s lips settle into a knowing smirk. Iwaizumi coughs into his fist, gently prying the camera from Oikawa’s hands to turn it off. Hanamaki’s face burns up, his cheeks a fiery red. “We’re just friends,” he says, the phrase rolling off his tongue by sheer reflex. He has lost count of how many times he’s typed it into the comment section beneath his videos. At this point he might just start to believe it himself.

Liked, Commented and Subscribed by Royal Society of Pandas (Abarcelos) (T) 45.7k /KuroKen/ YouTube, " 'Hey, Bokuto?' Kuroo interrupted his friend. They were both sitting on his couch, Bokuto telling some silly story that happened the previous weekend and Kuroo reading the comments on his latest video. He was quite happy with how it turned out – a lot of people seemed to enjoy it and he even saw a few memes on tumblr titled ‘The actual signs as Kuroo’s signs’. There was only one thing bothering him. 'Yeah, bro?' Bokuto answered, a little annoyed for having his great story be interrupted. 'Do you know who Kozume Kenma is?' " -- Everyone is a youtuber and tumblr ships KuroKen. A lot.

Japan's most subscribed by NeverNothing (T) 3.6k /KuroKen/ YouTube + Twitter, Kuroo Tetsurou @blacktetsurou changed his bio : volleyball player, co-owner of Bouncing Ball Corp. and so much more ;)

livestream by sketchedsmiles (T) 14.1k /SakuAtsu/ YouTube + Streamer, Sakusa is used to attention. As a full-time student and a part-time streamer, his videos of gameplay garner thousands of views on a daily basis.Still, nothing can prepare him for what it's like to have the attention of Miya Atsumu. Atsumu is many things: chatty, endearing, earnest. But he's more observant than most give him credit for.And he might be the only person who reminds Sakusa to take care of himself.

stan twitter, meet hinata shoyou by ichweissnichtauch (T) 13k /Hinata LOL/ Twitter, meiji milk pls sponsor me @kageyamatobio see you on the court @ninjashoyou 6.5k Retweets 31.6k Likes 2.0k Comments

here comes the sun @ninjashoyou lets do it baby i know the law 3.6k Retweets 27.3k Likes 1.8k Comments

or, hinata shoyou's v-league debut, as seen on twitter (ft. snapshots of v-twt).

People Will Say We're in Love by tirralirra (T) 9.5k /SakuAtsu/ Twitter-ish, “Saku...Atsu? What does that even mean?” Atsumu says, squinting at the device. People seem to think that Sakusa and Atsumu are in love, so they come up with a list of things to do to deter that. Maybe it would work...if they weren’t in love.

Ignoring the forest by NeverNothing (T) 5.9k /KuroKen/ Twitter + YouTube?, Where the public collectively agrees to ignore the signs that actor Kuroo Tetsurou is dating his childhood friend. Kuroo Tetsurou @therealtetsurouFilming was fun, but I’m glad to be back to my fav pudding head <3 #noplacelikehome #KURASE #filming [photo: a suitcase was in focus with another bag and a jacket thrown atop standing beside the back of a couch. A head of badly dyed hair can be seen, face turned away and rest of the body hidden by the couch.]

Anything In Between by todxrxki (T) 2.2k /KuroKen/ Twitter + YouTube, Kozume Kenma just wants to be a normal gaming YouTuber, but when his idiot boyfriend butts in and gets his fans speculating about their relationship, it seems that even that's impossible. / Post manga timeskip, told exclusively through social media and texting.

Silver Lining by Mari_Writes (T) 2.4k /BokuAka/ Twitter, Bokuto Koutarou is a professional volleyball player who has become one of Japan’s most famous and beloved athletes. He is active on social media, interacts with fans and is usually journalists’ first pick for an interview.But not much is known about Bokuto’s personal life. That is, until he accidentally posts a photo on Twitter featuring another man, dressed in nothing but a pair of short-shorts and glasses.This is how the world met the love of Bokuto Koutarou’s life.

Mystery Guy by Pepper_Moon (T) 11.1k /TsukkiYama/ Twitter + YouTube/Streamer, Popular YouTuber YamaGucci is livestreaming one day, when a voice off-camera speaks and makes him flustered. Let's just say what comes next is pure chaos.

and i press you to the pages of my heart by volchitsae (T) 13.9k /SakuAtsu/ YouTube, Atsumu scrolls around on YouTube, feeling like he's spiralling a little into the odd corners of it when some recommended videos are "I'm a Plague Doctor and You've Been Diagnosed with the Black Plague ASMR" or videos of people eating truly remarkable amounts of food. No judgement (maybe a little bit, he's no angel), but mukbangs make him hungry and whispering roleplay makes his ears itch. A video called "Study With Me: Pomodoro Technique #1" appears and he clicks on it.The channel's name is endomiphins, and the thumbnail features a view of a man from the neck downward at his desk, notebook and laptop open.Atsumu presses play. -- Sakusa is a barista by day, ASMR and study YouTuber by night, and Atsumu falls a little in love with both.

call me maybe by totooru (T) 33.6k /MatsuHana/ Wrong number, Hanamaki texts the wrong number when trying to extort tips out of Oikawa in order to defeat Iwaizumi in arm wrestling, and then continues to text the witty stranger who had answered.

Yuanfen by OwlBeDamned (T) 10.7k /KyouHaba/ Wrong number, [sent at 8:14 A.M.] Oikawa-san, I don't care how hungover you are, please come clean my apartment (the one you wrecked last night with your partying) and collect the puppy you left in my living room. I expect you at 9. Or else, there'll be consequences.[sent at 8:16 A.M.] who is this and how the fuck did u get my number?---"It makes sense if you think about it," Iwaizumi told him. "A soulmate line is the first sentence your significant other will tell you when you first encounter them. But the books never specified whether that encounter had to be physical."Kyoutani frowned, looking at his upperclassman in wonder. "Iwaizumi-san, this means...?""Yeah," he chuckled back, pointing at his cellphone, "that guy right there is your soulmate."

You'd fit my lonely arms so perfectly by boxofwonder (G) 25.1k /DaiSuga/ Wrong number, “Oh. You're. Not Asahi.” Calmed down enough that he can speak again, Daichi takes a deep breath, his smile settling on his face easily and wide. “Not as far as I know, no.”Suga accidentally calls a stranger instead of his best friend, tells him all about his burned batch of cookies before realising, and that particular mistake might turn out the best one he ever made.

(only encore notes)

When they came back for encore, before Followers Kyo raised his hand waiting for fans to join him. We also finished the song with hands up.

There was so MUCH rapport between Kyo and fans (not only during encore but for the whole show). He really seemed to much enjoy the responsiveness and the energy.

He encouraged us and teased us to give him more. He slashed his neck with his thumb gesturing us to 'lose necks' - let go and just join the music as one body.

And we did and he did and it was splendid. I haven't seen that much during Reiketsu as I managed to get enough space to properly headbang, but in the end Kyo was headbanging with us like crazy until the very end.

And then the sight of Kyo who lied down on the stand on his back after headbanding. Drained and full.

While laying down he still stomped with his leg, same way he hit the mic on his chest.

When he sat down and wobbly made it to his spot at the drumstand, lighting a cigarette.

We did great.

But let's go even further tonight! (｡•̀ᴗ-)و ̑̑✧
