Bffr this was like the only competition where he was barley properly scored everywhere else just straight insanity of over scoring. Growing up is realizing that he was the most overscored skater ever
Hanyu's 2015 gpf fs got a higher presentation than this, words cant describe how dumb the ISU is, dont get me wrong his 2015 gpf is good but its not better than this.
Agree. If the best free skate ever doesn't deserve 100, what does? It's unacceptable how ISU lowered his PCS after 2015, even though he only got better and better as a skater after that. After Yuzuru pretty much broke the scoring system with 6 back-to-back world records and runaway victories at NHK and GPF 2015, it led to ISU starting discussions to overhaul +3/-3 GOE for +5/-5 GOE. They seriously redesigned the scoring system to make greater room for subjective scoring and stop him from getting more record-breaking landslide victories as he deserves.
I have watched this 30-100 times or so and it gives me chills every time. Update: definitely at least 100 times now after several more watchings through quarantine. 🙂
True this should be considered one of the finest arts of the world. Because I’m sure there is no way another performance like this one would ever be performed.
It is humility and love of the sport that makes him adored by fans in all countries. His winningness and skating skills are almost second while still respected.
Nothing in skating will compare to this dazzling performance. The Stars aligned with perfect music, perfect technicality, perfect artistry, perfect costume, perfect commentator, perfect crowd.
Agree. Even though it was a world record, he was still underscored. Because he's really _that_ good and this is the best free skate ever. He deserved around 230 instead of 223.
There's a program breakdown for this performance, analyzing and rescoring it by the official guidelines. I highly recommend everyone to watch it. It truly gives a new level of appreciation for how masterfully executed every jump, spin, step is. You can find it by searching "Yuzuru Hanyu Hope and Legacy analysis" on RUclips.
ISU IS A BIG SHAME. They did a lot against Yuzuru, but his immeasurable greatness was stronger and he became a wonderful living legend. He is the GOAT, a divinity💖
Always remember that this video had 3M views before it got taken down. And ISU did not bother sharing the official version after 3 years. This video is a magnet to fans, seriously.
it’s been 5 years and i STILL haven’t watched a free skate better that this one EVER IN MY LIFE, this is the peak of figure skating, nothing can ever reach this program
Some people are just born to do some things. *YUZURU HANYU* WAS BORN TO BECOME THE FIGURE SKATING LEGEND. This guy got me into watching figure skating and I've discovered that it's so beautiful. It's all thanks to him. There needs to be a movie about Yuzuru Hanyu. The man who achieved success all through his persistence, hard work, determination and continuous perseverance.
Watching this back on July 19th the day of Fanyu Independence from ISU and JSF, they didn't deserved you Yuzuru. You're a legend, and ALLWAYS BE remembered as one. Thank you for everything!
I think among the performances I binged on, this is my favorite. The music, interpretation, execution and difficulty are all served by Hanyu on the most expensive silver platter. It felt like he was performing for me and made me feel very special. I want this performance played when I die.
@@_mariaabdo Two songs, "View of Silence" and "Asian Dream Song" both by Joe Hisaishi. And their medley made for Yuzuru's skate is called Hope and Legacy.
I don't know how many times I've watched this program, surely more than a hundred,and i am talking only for the last year. The man is for sure a phenomenon. I have chills, i wanna cry,so many emotions. I am 49 years old,i watch figure skating many years, but i have never felt like this. Honestly THANK YOU YUZURU HANYU. May all your dreams come true. Best of luck for the world championships 2021.
i remember watching this live as a high schooler who skipped school to stay home and watch worlds (ha!) and to this day this is still the only yuzu performance that can make me cry as soon as he hits that ina bauer 😭
I am watching this again in January 2022 and believing in Yuzuru for a third Olympic Gold next month. Channeling hope for him for another unmatched legacy of a perfomance. 🌻
I know nothing about ice skating, but this performance was captivating. So beautiful and seemed flawless. Love his attire and presence. Perfect song choice too.
i have watched this so many times i memorized the commentators' lines, this skate always makes me feel alive, like i'm part of the ice and i can feel every feeling going through his mind at the moment. truly the best free skate ever til this day
This is the very best of all time and what FS is truly about. Unfortunately, the clueless ISU has turned FS into a boring "Ice Jumping" with some music in the background. No music interpretation. No transitions necessary anymore. Now that Yuzu has become a pro-athlete and keeps pursuing his ideal FS, I have abandoned ISU and am just following only him. ISU can enjoy lots of empty seats from now on.
good luck yuzuru!! i cannot describe the perseverance you've shown over the years all while remaining humble and striving for more. stay happy, stay healthy, proud of you always!!
“very probably the best figure skate ever” couldn’t agree more. this remains my favorite skate ever
honestly this commentator is everything
Might still prefer Javi's "Guys & Dolls," but ya.
@@bee-wq9iu The EuroSport guys are the best
4 years later and this is still the best figure skate ever

Yuzuru Hanyu is probably the only skater who can still beat a world record while being underscored

@@aniawacht3882 omfg I’m laughing so hard u can’t even hide ur jealous go cry kid about the fact the yuzu is just THE G O A T
The fact he did not get 100 in presentation told us all we need to know about ISU.

@@starlightsall did you see the sp I was really shocked by the amount of discount they put him in fifth place
@Sarah Ahmed He missed a combo and got negative GOE on one of 3 jumps
@@ppnexus2000 I still do not get how he got a negative GOE in one of his jumps like ?? anyway, he's out of the toxicity of ISU.

That's the same for me for most of his competitive programs 😊

This is the greatest men's free skate in history
Nathan Chen just beat his score this year!
jing wang Chan beat the record by new scoring sistem 5 geo
jing wang different scoring system but even then this is and will always be the greatest
@@ustcwangjing A higher score doesn't mean better. Good for Nathan though.
I'd say it's the greatest free skate in history, men OR women.
This is what he is capable of. If you wonder why he is so beloved all over the world, watch this. This speaks to his legend.
Imagine what this kid could accomplish if he didn't have asthma 😹
He's not human!

Here again for my daily dose of yuzuru hanyu 😌
Me, too! :D
Same ❤️
Here too

I’m here today to witness the one ☝️ and only GOAT in Figure Skating, Yuzuru Hanyu 🥇🥇🏅🏅
To the newcomers, welcome to the greatest figure skate in history. The masterpiece of combining technique and artistry.
Ninguno como él no habrá, creo que solo existen patinadores así una vez en la vida , el mejor de todos los tiempos!! Yuzu
Nothing in skating will compare to this dazzling performance. The Stars aligned with perfect music, perfect technicality, perfect artistry, perfect costume, perfect commentator, perfect crowd.
And your comment is perfect too, love it!
Just perfection. Period.
The commentator is just as brilliant.
97.08 pcs my ass lmao. as insane as it sounds, this fs was underscored
He deserved like 200 ffs

Since Yuzu has switched to Pro, probably this will be the best free skate in competitional figure skating history, ever.
it’s been 5 years and i STILL haven’t watched a free skate better that this one EVER IN MY LIFE, this is the peak of figure skating, nothing can ever reach this program
My biggest regret in life is not watching the best figure skate ever live. Beijing fan here…Yuzu you are the GOAT!

From 5th Place in Short Program to World Record in Free Program and World Champion in Overall🏆👑🇯🇵GOAT
coming back to this after last night's SP. No matter what, he genuinely is the best ever.
“This is Hanyu at his very best”. . . So true!!!
So beautiful that i legit started crying. The power this man holds.
Rewatching i honor of Yuzuru Hanyu and the great legacy he is leaving behind the ice. No one will ever come close to his talent and artistry.
It is half 2022, and I still cry with this presentation
Absolutely the most magnificient and perfect performance ever! Love Yuzuru Hanyu!!! The GOAT!!
Best figure skater ever!
NATHAN CHEN IS THE BEST

Elaine Xu not even close! Sorrie buddy!

Have you ever read any professional analysis of Nathan Chen’s jump? Especially this with photos and compared side by side to Yuzuru.
8:56 "yea nope that guy's still on top" mikhail pls 😂
He just makes the jumps so effortless... Again and again and again and I just looove it😍😭😭💖💕
the best skater of all time
there will never be another one like yuzu

History right before our eyes. Yuzuru Hanyu cementing his name in figure skating 💙💚
this free skate still brings me to tears to this day.
Kolyada's face says it all, it is so beautiful it doesn't seem possible for any human being but yet here it is!
He is an extremely talented skater and performer. He is irreplaceable.
Unforgettable. Iconic. Legendary. Inspiring.
Yuzuru……my favorite skater ever
I just know we won't see anything as beautiful and perfect as this ever again in figure skating, I don't think it's possible to top this performance.
this is like my 10000th time watching this and i STILL get chills he is so amazing
He have to remember his state of mind at this moment, everytime he about to compete. He was fierce yet so peacefull here.
Still the best free program in history
Omg I’ll never get over this ❤❤❤
Most unforgettable FS program in all WC events 🙌🥇
i remember watching this live as a high schooler who skipped school to stay home and watch worlds (ha!) and to this day this is still the only yuzu performance that can make me cry as soon as he hits that ina bauer 😭
I bet you never regretted skipping school if I were you I would miss school too I love figure skating 🥺💙
Obviously hanyu is legend
Not properly the best figure skate ever but ABSOLUTELY the best figure skate EVER👏👏👏👏👏👏❤
the best fs in the history
He is in a class by himself. There is only one Yuzu
How blessed we have been, to witness him grow throughout his career! Thank you for everything, dear Yuzu!
Without Yuzuru 🇯🇵 figure skating will be no more
I am watching this again in January 2022 and believing in Yuzuru for a third Olympic Gold next month. Channeling hope for him for another unmatched legacy of a perfomance. 🌻
J'ai prie toujours pour ça.amen
really hoping he pulls this again
I have watched this like a million times but this just feels new every time
This is perfection 💕 Yuzuru himself is hope and legacy
This is text book perfect with true grace.
it has become a routine watching this after a tiring day and i cant put into words how beautiful this is and how much peace this brings me
I watch so many times. Think it is the very essence of Yuzuru Hanyu. Effortless, cool, smooth. Simply out of this world.
I know nothing about ice skating, but this performance was captivating. So beautiful and seemed flawless. Love his attire and presence. Perfect song choice too.
I swear I've watched this countless times and I am still always so mesmerized and blown away wow
pull this once more yuzu, がんばって!
Considering he was 5th and 12 pts behind after SP, this FS is jjjjjjust PERFECT!!!! Bravo!!!!!
i have watched this so many times i memorized the commentators' lines, this skate always makes me feel alive, like i'm part of the ice and i can feel every feeling going through his mind at the moment. truly the best free skate ever til this day
When Tracy sees his score "Why is the overall so low? Wait that's his free!"
Yuzuru Hanyu is truly a skater who has touched the hearts of audiences of all generations !!!🤴😍🤩🤩
I was at the event watching this live
It was so amazing
This is the very best of all time and what FS is truly about. Unfortunately, the clueless ISU has turned FS into a boring "Ice Jumping" with some music in the background. No music interpretation. No transitions necessary anymore. Now that Yuzu has become a pro-athlete and keeps pursuing his ideal FS, I have abandoned ISU and am just following only him. ISU can enjoy lots of empty seats from now on.
I keep finding myself coming back to watch this skate every few months. The greatest of all time.
I love all of his performances, but this one has something that I can´t describe. It's just out of this world
They have guts to delete the most popular video -__- ISU is dead
This will forever be my fav. Everything here is just *chef's kiss* perfect!!
good luck yuzuru!! i cannot describe the perseverance you've shown over the years all while remaining humble and striving for more. stay happy, stay healthy, proud of you always!!
Historical world record for the free skate, 223.20
I burst into tear watching his skate. He and his skate is like my best magical dream 💓
I'm so glad Tracy was there to see the score. her reaction was THE BEST 8:23
Re-watching this today in celebration of its third year anniversary 🎉🎉🎉
and we all need a lot of hope rn
Amazing world record and I love Hope & Legacy!! :)
just watching him do his performance chills my heart and soul
this is so iconic. Start 2020 with this 🍾
this will forever be my favorite performance from him
same 🥺
man i've watched this so many times and i still can't get over the woman's reaction when the score came out 😂
Yuzuru Hanyu : history maker
Phenomenal. Simply Phenomenal.
He is my hope&legacy
This video is healing me every time I watch
This is my favorite program by him.
Another fantastic perfomance from Yuzuru!!! I luv him!!
nicely danced and choreographed. just mindblowing. esp loved how smooth the transitions are to the jumps at 1:13, 2:32, 4:45! 🥺
I C O N I C 🤩🤩
An absolute miracle
2:30 *This is the definition of jump out of nowhere*
I can see tears in spectators' eyes. Thank you very much for sharing. Yuzu is phenomenal.
The Best Hope and Legacy I ever saw in him
Coming back to this as the Olympics are going on... He's the GOAT!
I think of the sublime level of his skating, then I remember the absurd scores given to NC mediocre skating. What a shame...
its impossible not to love this man
