Daisuke!!!! cheers

First of all, I have to say thank you to Nikoli.
We all know even Patrick that Daisuke is the best skater in the world except Daisuke himself.
So He needs to someone to push him and to make him fight with other men.
Nikoli did great job.

I cannot not to cry seeing his hand here...

Was Morozov crying too?

Maybe Dai was thinking "It's my last NHK" - maybe....

Morozov was moved for sure. I do not like him, TBH, but it seems that now he is really caring for Daisuke.

OK - I have updated also the topic on Dai I am carrying on in an Italian Ice Skating Forum. Many people congratulated on his amazing performance and some were upset by the lack of 10 in PCS... I am so proud of my wonderful boy sunny

Italian Eurosport is broadcasting again Men Short, waiting for Ladies. I am going to see Dai again, without fear this time.

Have you all a wonderful Dai-day flower

Meet you again Tomorrow

GANBARE DAI-CHAN cheers

GO CAPTAIN & RASCALS cheers

It's 7:30 am here. I should get some sleep.
But I can't stop watching Dai's performance!

He was in God-like mood.
No one can touch him when he is like this!

Thank you Daisuke! You are The King.

I love all the videos that you posted here. Because I can see myself standing in ovation for Dai in all of them. lol!

Morozov looked very serious from the start. He talked to Dai more than anyone. During the warm up Dai did beautiful 3A and 4T. His 4T now looks like 3T, so light, soft and easy he performs it. During the prog Morozov didn't even move after 4T (I was sitting right after the place where skaters go to the ice and where coaches waiting for them). But after 3A he almost hystericaly moved towards Utako and grapped her hand. Since then he became his own self with his voodoo behind the board. He was crying but Dai was cool. The lady next to me started crying after Dai's combo. During the ovation I told her "Daijoubu!" She laughed, smiled but kept crying and couldn't stop. I have never seen such a phenomena as Dai in FS before in terms of popularity boaderline with obsession, admiration and faithfulness of the audience. The cluster of sportsmenship, artistism and valid human nature called "Dai" caused all of it.

Hi guy~
I have been watching his performance in many times.
Spin, spin, spin.. Wink

Most amazing thing was his quad..on my...Nobody can jump like him.
fast, soft and light like feather..wow.
It was briliant but even Daisuke said that it seemed not to be his 100% performance.
I am sure that we can see his 100% performance in Sochi.

Go Daisuke~

Thanks let's talk for the exciting report~
So did you meet the captain of rascals and Genki there?

That's the best summation of Dai's performance!

Or maybe crying Morozov.
He almost suffocated Utako sensei and Dai in his embrace! Very Happy

Have you ever seen him crying like this?

As let`s talk said people get attached to Dai with faithfulness that is borderline with obsession.
So many crying faces in the audience...
Thank you Rascals! cheers

Thanks let`s talk for the report and Shyla for the article!

let's talk, thank you for report on Morozov's behaviour and for sharing your thoughts on Dai's amazing impact on people.

Dai is magic, we have always said so here in Forum; I bet it's just breathtaking to be an eye-witness of his power in the arena.

Lucky all people who were there. And our Captain & Rascals cheers

Shyla, thank you for the link to article!!

See you later, ready to enjoy, cry and be full of honwaka emotions. I love you

GANBARE DAI-CHAN cheers

And it's cool to see all the people around them emotional, excited or very elated while Dai staying cool and Utako sensei keeping her usual cheerfulness! Cool

But it is totally worthy!

Hi all!
I’m so glad that I changed my mind just before the competition started. What a performance! I don’t think I need you to explain how he skated as you’ve already watched it many times. Wink

The audience around me, maybe 90% were rascals Razz

, didn’t cry but we shared our happiness with each other. “Good!” “So relieved!” “This gives me a good sleep tonight.” I can’t help but smiling knowing that even though we’ve tried to be positive, all rascals worried about him that much deep in our mind. Wonderful atomsphere was spread over the arena.

After I came back home and watched the recorded video, I was surprised to find Nikolai crying. In fact I have thought about the bond between Dai-chan and Nikolai since Skate America. First I suspected if Nikolai was really necessary for Dai-chan. I felt odd to see Nikolai beside Dai-chan in the competition because he just worked with him a week or so this season. But a few days later the article that Nikolai scolded hard him, came out. Now we knew he changed the boots to Graf by Nikolai’s suggestion. He also suggested him to change the order of SP (actually they changed it this week!) And it seems they worked out well so far. Maybe I have to admit they are friends of fate.

Now it started!!
Ganbare Dai-chan!!! sunny

As I witnessed Menshov injured in WTT, it's nice to see his come back.

Did anybody here tell that Dai-chan's doctor recommend him not to participate in WTT back in April according to his book?
