My first Japanese fansub - Yuzuru Hanyu documentary

[sampaguita]

Just uploaded my first fansub on Youtube! I'm studying Japanese and since I couldn't find any existing translation of the documentary at that time, I decided to just sub it myself. Took me days to finish this. I'm sure there are some mistakes, but I'm happy nevertheless that I can understand most of it!

If any of you speak Japanese fluently, I would appreciate it if you could let me know any mistakes/those parts which I didn't understand! Thank you in advance!

Thanks jjane!

It literally took me days to translate this, and a few more days to add the timestamps! They speak really fast and in fact I had to slow down and repeat portions of the video just so I could understand what they are saying (and Yuzuru's diction isn't very clear -- I often couldn't understand him!). It was a very ambitious project on my part, as my level of proficiency is not that high (I was checking the dictionary for almost every sentence!). Still, it was a very rewarding experience and well worth my time, especially since it was a chance to let the English-speaking world know more about Yuzuru.
