professional on July 19, 2022. At junior and senior level (2008–2022), he won a total of 59 medals in 72 competitions, among them 37 golds. He is the first male single skater in 66 years since American Dick Button to win back-to-back Olympic titles (2014, 2018), and also the youngest and first Olympic champion from Asia in that discipline. He is a two-time World champion (2014, 2017), a six-time Japanese national champion (2012–2015, 2020–2021), and the first single skater to win four consecutive Grand Prix Finals (2014–2017). With his win at the 2020 Four Continents Championships, he became the first male single skater to complete the Super Slam, having won all major international junior and senior titles in the course of his career. He is also the only male single skater besides German Jan Hoffmann to win seven world championship medals
in the post-war era since 1946.

Hanyu broke world records 19 times, the most in singles since the introduction of the

program components, 10 of them for his signature triple Axel jump, and was the first skater to land a quadruple loop jump in international competition. As a professional, Hanyu became the first skater to produce and present a solo ice show (Prologue 2022) and a solo ice show tour (Repray Tour 2023–24). His second solo show Gift (2023) set a new audience record for ice shows with 35,000 spectators at Tokyo Dome
.

In recognition of his achievements, Hanyu has received numerous awards and accolades, including the

Laureus World Sports Award, selected in the category Comeback of the Year (2019), and was named the Most Valuable Skater at the inaugural ISU Skating Awards (2020). He was also featured in prestigious lists, such as Forbes' 30 Under 30 Asia (2018) as well as ESPN
's World Fame 100 (2018, 2019) and The Dominant 20 (2018).

International maximum scores

Technical elements

Refer to caption
Hanyu in the step sequence of his short program "Let's Go Crazy" at the 2016–17 Grand Prix Final

In figure skating, a technical element is awarded a perfect score if it is credited with the full base value by the technical panel and the maximum grade of execution after dropping the highest and lowest mark across the judging panel (+3 marks before and +5 marks since the 2018–19 season).[26] In the +5/-5 GOE System, Hanyu received one perfect score for a technical element in international competition,[27] namely his triple Axel jump in the short program at the 2019 Skate Canada International.[124][125] Before the system change, he was awarded a total of 28 maximum scores, covering all types of required technical elements in the senior men's singles discipline: three types of solo jumps, two different jump combinations, a spin, the step sequence, and the choreographic sequence.[26][126]

Seven of the 29 technical elements received unanimous +3 marks from all judges on the panel: four triple Axels, a quadruple Salchow, a choreographic sequence, and his step sequence in the short program at the 2016 World Championships.[126] However, that element did not earn a maximum score because it was not credited with the full base value.[127] Hanyu's solo triple Axel jump received a perfect score ten times, the most among all elements. The Axels were all executed in the short program, six of them in the second half.[27][126]

He was awarded a perfect score for twelve technical elements and maximum grades of execution for another three step sequences that were not credited with the full base value due to level downgrades. Before the 2014–15 season, Hanyu did not receive any maximum scores for single technical elements in international competition.[126]

A Japanese national record score is the highest score achieved by a Japanese skater in a competition segment at an international event sanctioned by the International Skating Union (ISU). Highest scores achieved at domestic skating events like the Japan Championships do not count for national records, but they are recorded by the Japan Skating Federation and reported various news outlets.[129][130]

By the end of his competitive career, Hanyu held the current and historical Japanese national record scores in all three segments of the senior men's singles discipline. Two of them were achieved at the 2019 Skate Canada International, namely the national records for the free skating and combined total score in the +5/-5 GOE System.[131][132] By the end of his career, Hanyu also held all six event records at the Japan Championships,[133] of which five were scored at Saitama Super Arena in Saitama.[129][134]

Absolute best scores

Ballade No. 1 at the 2015–16 Grand Prix Final

Absolute best scores are officially recorded by the International Skating Union and, compared to personal bests, they consider multiple scores by one skater in each competition segment.[5][123] In the men's singles discipline, the crucial scores to surpass are 100 points in the short program, 200 in the free skating, and 300 in the combined total score. Hanyu was the first skater to surpass all three in international competition.[12] By the end of his competitive career in 2022, only five other skaters have scored above 300 points in total, namely Javier Fernández, Nathan Chen, Jin Boyang, Shoma Uno, and Yuma Kagiyama.[5]

Hanyu scored ten times above 300 points in the combined total and was the first skater to surpass 310, 320, and 330 points in international competition. In the short program, he scored fifteen times above 100 points and was the first to surpass 110 points, being the only one to do so in the +3/-3 GOE System.[5][123] His short program Ballade No. 1 was awarded more than 110 points five times, the most times among all short programs.[8] In the free skating, Hanyu scored eight times above 200 points and was the first to surpass 210 and 220 points.[5][123] His free skate program Seimei was the first to be awarded more than 200 points, surpassing that mark trice.[8]
