The book bears the official title “Gift“, a reference to the show held last year February 26th. Hanyu has repeatedly expressed the desire to tell his own stories not only through skating, but also in the form of an illustrated book, but in his imagination this would really make the most if brought to life CLAMP. His request was accepted.
