Yuzuru Hanyu is a Japanese figure skater and ice show producer. He is a two-time Olympic champion and the first male single skater to complete the Super Slam, having won all major international senior and junior titles in the course of his career. He is also a six-time Japanese national champion. He is regarded as one of the greatest and most complete figure skaters in history for his well-rounded skills, achievements, popularity, and impact on the sport.

Since Hanyu's hometown of Sendai was hit by the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, he has participated in multiple charity events, donated money for the reconstruction, and dedicated various exhibition programs to the victims of the disaster.

In recognition of his contributions to sports and culture, Hanyu became the youngest recipient of the People's Honor Award in 2018 and received the Kikuchi Kan Prize in 2022 among other accolades.

In July 2022, he moved from competitive to professional figure skating, producing multiple ice shows and pioneering the concept of solo ice shows.

Hanyu made his on-screen debut as Date Shigemura, a samurai lord, in the 2016 movie, The Magnificent Nine.

From August to November 2023, Yuzuru was married to a non-celebrity. When the two separated, he cited harassment by the media as the cause.
