Yuhi Endo (遠藤紬斐)

2×2 · top 1.6% of 186,767 all-time · competing since August 2025 · 2025ENDO01

Yuhi Endo (遠藤紬斐) has been competing for a year. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.36, set at Tokyo Spring 2026, puts him in the top 1.6% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 18th in Japan. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since August 2025, he has put 97 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 9.17 in August 2025 to 7.33, a 20% improvement. Yuhi has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
