Talent is something you make bloom. 

Translation (from ISU facebook page):

Q1: You two both had the first medal at the world Championships, Please comment about your feelings to have become the medalist.

Akiko: I'm very happy but it wasn't my best performance, so I have more unsatisfied feelings than satisfied feelings.

Yuzuru: So do I. I had good FS but I made mistake at SP, so I'm not completely happy about it. However, I'm really happy to get the medal and I had no word to express my happiness.

Q2: You have 10 years age difference, how do you get along with as team mates?

Y: We said each other "Omedetou! Congratulations!” after the competition. I don't feel such a huge age difference with Akiko. We are really good friends and never felt about her age. We have lots of common things, for example that we both had similar mistake of jump during the competitions. When I watched her FS, my heart was shaken.

A: When I watched Yuzu fell at FS, It reminded me my performance of Nationals in 2009 which was very important in order to have competed for the Olympic spot and made me smile a little.

Q3: How would you celebrate after going home?

A & Y: I would like to have a nice meal with my family.

Q4: How would you spend the off season?

Y: I love to have rest. I was so tired because I attended a lot of shows and competitions.

A: I would like to go somewhere for a short travel.
