Fairy wants to help Otabek with his flexibility.

>tfw Piggy still doesn't realize how deep Victor loves him and vice versa

Literally all I fucking wanted on the relationship front. I knew full homo was a pipe dream but I at least wanted them to know the impact they had on each other but it's still fucking inner monologues that don't get through.
>hurrr I love Victor I want to be with him forever but also I don't want to kill him as a competitive skater
>hurrr Yuri is love, Yuri is life, I'm going to cry over Yuri leaving me but never going to say how he made me happy

But all that comes out of them is flirting and babble like Excite me! Be my coach longer!

Season two better NEXT LEVEL Baldfat too or else.

So how soon does it generally take for a new season of anime to be produced? This is the first time I'm actually following a series in realtime. A year? Two years?

>>151249361
No, he's trying to get Otabek to do the splits too

It's poking fun at him being bad at ballet

>>151248905
So they're going to have another season where they actually fuck or something?

Victor teasing about going back to competitive skating and JJ's it was an okay ending

>>151249336
Punished Otabek

A man denied his medal

this anime makes me get really fit for some reason

>>151249347
I found it pretty romantic, especially with the face caresses. Didn't make up for the clumsy handling of their relationship this episode but it did soften the blow. Also my standards have been lowered by all the QUALITY skates so the prettier frames were nice.

>>151249352
except that he made no difference in the end. yurio finally got agape through his relationships with everyone, not just otabek, and it's never really implied that otabek was special or a turning point. i really thought they were going to have him place higher than yurio in order to show that he could be happy for otabek even if he didn't win himself, but you could have removed otabek completely and it barely would have made a difference.

>>151249397

They live together alone in S2, it can only improve from there.

Now that YoI has wrapped up, time to vote for the real best boy.

http://www.strawpoll.me/11931763

>people talking about JJ winning bronze and screwing Otakbek
>I literally thought Otabek was 3rd

Why do you make them so similar for Kubo

>>151249400

Depends. This was an unexpected hit so it'll probably take a year at least. MAPPA is a small studio and already has announced their plans through Winter, Spring, and Summer of 2017. Conceivably the earliest would be the same as this year, Fall 2017. It will probably be in production longer though, since negotiations and planning are done far ahead of time.

We'll almost certainly get OVAs and side material to tide us over until then, though.

>>151249497
On top of the animation and writing, YoI also has other things to worry about unlike some anime like getting Miyamoto to choreograph 20+ new routines with original music, chacott designs, etc.

Same here, I thought it was lovely. The lighting, music, their expressions, the gentle face caress. I can see how one might feel that way but it was the light in this episode for me. Had better animation than I was expecting too, so that was a plus.

>>151249293
I like that the fujo artists were right about there being a Blue Prince costume variation for Yuuri. It made me insanely happy with this scene.

For now.

Where do you think season 2 will start? Will it be about Victor coaching Yuuri and finally winning gold or about the two of them competing?

>>151249538

The caresses, the grace of the routine, both of them switching leading position, the trusting romantic gazes were all perfect. Just as good as any kiss. If only the scenes that led up to it were coherent and not rushed.

A het show that pulled this would not be subject to the same amount of shitposting and denial. They'd just have waifu wars and "I want to fuck x" discussions instead. Not that it's much better, but it's less inflammatory.

>>151249604

coaching fee is a lifetime supply of yuuri katsuki

>>151249397

> non-skating parts of S2 are a sitcom about Yuri finding increasingly ludicrous ways to no-homo their relationship

>>151249474
I'm going to get shit for this but Pig's still my favorite character. The entire hotel scene was off but then he goes back to his usual self and had some meaningful conclusions with Yurio, if not the most meaningful. Sorry I have shit taste

>>151249647
His hair is wrong here.

Now that we have proof Fairy admired Yuuri from the start I wanna see him interacting with Minami and feeling second-hand embarrassment over his fanboy outbursts. It'd be cute as fuck.

ep 10 felt like the true ending

>>151249663
I honestly want it to start at the Banquet, but that won't happen.

>it can only improve from there.
After what happened in this episode are you sure? The hotel scene was weird. Their reunion was also weird because there was no real catharsis, just oh I guess I'm not quitting anymore so let's sweep everything under the rug.

I don't know what happened, they were handled in a perfectly decent manner until this episode. It's not that the love disappeared it was just written so sloppily it didn't come off as sincerely just when it should have counted the most. This is not a good note to go forward on.

But it's love I guess so it's fine. KuboSayo still have a hold on my balls so I'll wait to see what they come up with.

>>151249400
I can only see it coming out Winter 2018. They can try for Fall 2017 if they already greenlit production already and have been working it out for a while.

I just hope that it keeps the spirit of S1 at least.

>>151249679
Same here anon, I'm a Piggy stan until the end.

>>151249497
Yeah despite the schedule they can't delay too long and lose hype. This is their breakaway hot they gotta treasure it.

He didn't even seem like he admired him, more like he was curious about him and saw potential in him only to get let down by his bathroom sobfest.

>>151249686
Episode 12 should have been this year's banquet and gala with the episode 10 flashback.

>>151249718

I'm sure because it's a completely different enviroment that can't compare to being at the onsen surrounded by family and guests and having separate rooms or being a few days in an hotel. Living together will force them to relearn how they interact and coexist with each other and will have to become more forward.

It's one of the few good things that came out of this mess.

>>151249542
I don't think that's a problem if Miyamoto enjoyed it. Chacott will probably come back, but fuck, the costumes in his season has been pretty disappointing though outside of the promo costumes, the Pink and Blue Prince outfits, Yuuri's Eros and YOI costumes, Yuuri's 2015 GPF FS outfit, Otabek's FS costume (which we didn't get to see the trick it has, shit), young Victor's mermaid costume and Phichit's FS costumes.

>>151249604
It's 5 world championships or a lifetime supply of Stamina™.

>>151249782
I can see Yurio crashing in on them constantly, it'll be an interesting dynamic. Lilia will show up to drag him back home.

>>151249837
I was one of the anons that said everyone was exaggerating their hate for JJ that he was harmless but not anymore. The illogical way he won and the screen time wasted on him is harmful to the show.

>>151249782
But you're basing that on the assumption that KuboSayo will do the logical, natural thing. They episode proved that they might not.

They could hit Baldfat with the status quo hammer and keep them living in domestic vaguely homo bliss with no more progress or exploration, instead focusing on other skating-related plot.

It was Kubo's boner for him that ruined the finale

>>151249893

Aren't they popular with nip fujos? I'm sure they'll be catered to

>>151249813
>If anything the episode made me wonder if Yuuri really does like Victor
Nah he does, the sudden autismo behavior didn't erase everything that came before. He still loves him, longs for him, is grateful and clearly let go because of AI. It just wasn't presented well.

The problem with Piggy though is he just assumed what was best for Victor and despite Bad's seeming agreeableness to return to competition I'm not convinced it's what he truly wants in his heart.

>>151250053

But he likes Lilia and Yakov, he cooks for them

>>151249679
>>151249750
The issue with Piggy was that the story kind of gave up on exploring his low self-esteem issues and shitty social skills, and especially neglected showing how they impacted other people. Someone in the other thread mentioned that he showed some symptoms of autism, and while I don't think he's literally autistic, he does seem to have depression or some other disorder. I know I'm not saying anything new here but if they were gonna have him act like he did in the past few episodes, they should have really explored how it affected his relationship with Victor rather than just glossing over it.

>>151250073
I love Fairy but I'm still unsatisfied by this ending. It just felt empty.

BikeFairy was always my OTP with BaldFat being a dear second, but after that hotel scene I don't think I can fuck with BaldFat anymore.

Yuuri's response was not remotely that of somebody with anxiety. It really was soulless. And the whole way the scene was framed didn't even seem to suggest there was something wrong with it, which made it all the more of a turnoff.

>>151249992
Baldfat became more interesting for me but only if they fulfill the potential in season 2.

>>151250115
I really can't tell what Viktor wants, so, I can't blame the pig for not knowing either. His frowns over his broken records and him saying it was insulting having them both broken make me lean towards him actually wanting to go back, though.

I liked it a lot, Fairy deserved it.
I'm incredibly happy.

He says he got bored of feeling depressed, but not that he has actual clinical depression. You can be depressed without having depression as in the actual illness.

I'm happy that he at least starts out by saying "Even I'm worried about making a come back while still coaching you at the same time", its not much but I guess its a step in the right direction of communicating more.

>>151250161

He said he was depressed, but decided to snap himself out of it. He's definitely got anxiety problems that negatively impact his life outside of whether or not he loses, though.

We've already discussed this before, people with depression (as in, the mental illness) can get flares of clarity and try to get themselves together, however that wears off and you come back to your previous state and the same problems show up again. It's a cycle.

Seeing him like that after everything in episode 10 was strange though. Him going back goes against his whole character

>>151250186
For me it was unconvincing because it lacked passion or real happiness, he said he used to be lonely and strangled but the show didn't give a concrete point where this was overturned by a rekindling of his passion for competition itself, his strongest reaction was still tied to Yuri. Looking bummed over broken records didn't seem a good enough push.

>>151250247
>He said he was depressed, but decided to snap himself out of it

This usually doesn't last

>>151250301

>>151250277
Yeah they have do have potential but they didn't even show them doing normal friendship stuff like saying goodbye before fucking back home, not even a still frame with no dialog. What's the point in making him Fairy's first friend at all?

>>151249679
Yuuri gets a lot of unneeded hate for actually have a mental illness that is a part of him and won't go away because of MUH LOVE OF THE SPORT AND VICTOR. I don't think the hotel scene was bad either. Yuuri was in a bad headspace when we was talking to Victor. He genuinely thought that Victor was yearning to get back on the ice and thought that his bad showing at the SP was an indicator that he will hold Victor back.

While personally, I didn't like that Victor's coming back to skating personally, but at the same time, I can kind of get it because his problem with skating was that he had to constantly re-invent himself to suprise the audience and that became a noose that was slightly closing around his neck. And it's pretty obvious that he did everything to keep that going at the expense of his life and relationships outside of skating. Meeting Yuuri made him re-prioritize everything. Now he is going to skate for Yuuri possibly because Yuuri became the one he wants to surprise now. He won't be able to neglect the things he holds dear now. I think it is also important that they shown Makkachin was with Yuuri as well to emphasize this point.

Well, we won't know until next year.

>>151250340
I think it was forced as fuck, but I still think that we're meant to believe he wants to go back.

>>151250309
Phichit probably can't stand Fairy and probably avoids him out of wanting to slap the shit out of that little cunt.

>>151250281
I agree. I don't see anyone else being this dramatic about it.
I'm perfectly fine with seeing relationships not just idealized all the time but with some bumps and issues, and yeah, it happens often in real life that a person can be callous and not know it. I didn't see it too terribly out of character, but then again, people were already deeming Piggy as Hitler before this episode so I think that could have made it worse in their eyes.

>>151250281
How in the hell can you sit there and justify him freaking out harder over losing a bag of nuts than over Victor, the man he supposedly loves, crying in front of him because of something he did?

>>151250340
>Victors theme for the year is wanting to fucking kill himself

>>151250209
Was it? That whole scene seemed really shoddy and shit to me. Like they were going for one thing but showed something entirely different.

>>151250205
Yeah I think you could make an argument for him fitting the symptoms of clinical depression (and possibly borderline or some other personality disorder), but my main point was that regardless of whether he has a diagnosable condition, the effect of his emotional and social issues on his career and social life seems similar to that of a mental illness or personality disorder. I wish they'd kept exploring that thread beyond the first few seasons.

His biggest issue is that he thought he could only find strength by himself, that's not the case anymore.

>>151250430
Which is my point here >>151250157 there's no set up for them post series. He is Fairy's first friend but they don't show anything more after that.

>>151249463
Yeah, he's almost Sousuke tier in how shafted he was. Ironic given nips compared the two since the beginning.

>>151250130
They didn't neglect it. The show basically said his anxiety will always be an issue for him. Which is very realistic. I liked that the issue doesn't go away because of new confidence or his love for Victor doesn't magically goes away. It's an ongoing process for him. He is dealing with it better though and winning silver did give him the confidence to continue on as some people wanted.

>>151250470
kek, and he ignored yuuri's davai too.

I guess his next biggest issue would be to juggle competition, coaching, and trying to get into Piggy's pants all at the same time.

>>151249397
What lies in S2 will be a contrived MISUNDERSTANDING subplot on the level of Free! that will be dragged throughout the entire season.

>>151250487
No, his biggest issue is being 28 years old and having taken a year off his career, while planning to coach another skater at the same time. There is a reason Yakov told him that once he left he could never come back.

>>151250556
You're not following the flow of conversation, there's nothing shown onscreen.

>>151250447
Yuuri will pull a Victor and skate for 6 more years, I feel sorry for the other skaters.

>>151250405
He didn't know how to react because he didn't expect Victor's reaction. He froze up. I'm not kidding, this is a legit thing that happens, and I think you and others are reading way too hard into it. He doesn't suddenly not care about Victor even if his initial reaction wasn't the best move.

They can't really go for a ride on the Otabike when they're at work

That ending was fucking terrible holy shit.

>>151250528
He only fucked on the landing of those two jumps, anon. That's minimum deduction and it was in the beginning of the routine.

Did people forget that the rest of the skaters had to revise their routine to get a shot at JJ? His FP was Victor-tier of difficulty.

>>151250560
Yes which brings me back to the point, why make him Fairy first friend if it's not significant enough to enough to show even a few seconds of set up?

>see you next level time

>>151250569

Please no, give me BaldFat breaking up due to strain from their careers or Yurio breaking his legs instead of that nonsense.

>>151250568

I really hope he's not planning on coaching AND skating. It's against the ruurus they went to great lengths to adhere to.

He didn't even freeze up, he just didn't react. Seriously, that's what's weird about this scene.

There was no freezing whatsoever going on in that scene.

I like Fairy but his entire character arc was shit. Well, nonexistent to be more specific. He didn't learn jack shit, making his victory empty and meaningless.

>>151250668
After being a Piggyfag all this time, I have to accept my true feelings. I'm really a Victorfag all along.

What the fuck was going on during Piggy's FS? He went from hyped after being shit on by Victor for not winning gold yet to saying he's a dime in dozen figure skater. Then he suddenly says he wants to keep skating with Victor forever, only to end with "when I leave the rink this is all over".

>>151250622
Do you really think they're just going to ignore each other in S2 all because they didn't spend a couple seconds doing a meaningless scene of them saying goodbye to each other when they probably already exchanged numbers the night before?

>>151250506
Yeah I liked that his anxiety didn't magically disappear because of hot slav boyfriend, I just felt like it wasn't treated like enough of a problem in the last few episodes. Especially since he ended up hurting Victor and causing unnecessary angst for them both because of it. Doesn't make Yuri a monster but it is something he should address. That said I haven't rewatched any episodes fully (waiting to watch it with someone else) so maybe I'm just not giving the show enough credit.

>>151250726
That IS a way of freezing up, having a "flat" reaction to something. He has never seen Victor cry before, so it was awkward for him.

Autistic response or not, he affirmed he'd stay by Victor's side later anyway and that's what Victor really wanted so I can't really complain.

>>151250846
It's over. See you next year.

>>151250747
>to saying he's a dime in dozen figure skater
Seems like though he has new confidence he's still not fully free of shit self-esteem.

Victor as coach. He wants to keep skating with him in competition, but he loved being under his care too

>>151250738
If I was Chris, I would have gave up years ago.

We sit here for the rest of the year consumed with lust.

There's doesn't have to be a goodbye scene, I said there's no set up for them post series. We know he's Fairy first friend and then what of it? Is it suppose to be significant or not?

The wait for S2 is gonna be painful. I can't decide if this ending was bad or good until I see it and MAPPA still has three projects scheduled so we are gonna see YoI probably in 2018.

>>151250744
He worked hard as fuck and went beyong his actual physical limitations because that's how much he wanted it.

He began the story losing.
He finished the story winning.

He really deserved the win and I'm happy, because he earned it and he got it.

It's gotta be frustrating, he's set it up so that he and the Yuri's will dominate the podium. Their only hope is that Victor will retire after a season or two but the other two will still dominate for a good while. Their only hope is when Yurio takes his growth spurt.

>>151250738
They really didn't have to do Chris that dirty. He got worse treatment than JJ despite being the best wingman of all time.

>>151250747
Yuuri is not going to call himself a big shot. But that line is just a callback from Episode 1 and it used as a contrast to how he feels at EP1 to EP12, the difference being that he feels like he's nothing special but it doesn't really matters because he will always skate for Victor.

Plus the kiss and cry bit was that he doesn't know what Victor was going to do after it's all over and believes that they will have to part which is what he doesn't want.

>>151250884
Honestly, I'll take anything at this point, so long as it means Otabek doesn't get completely shrugged off. Though I think it makes sense for them to be friends before they're anything else.

>>151250894
Victor was still Yuuri's idol since childhood, it's fucking odd to see someone like that cry in front of you. Yuuri doesn't get close to many people, it's established he's kind of weird in that respect (like pushing away the Detroit girl).

Victor's ankle is gonna fucking SHATTER holy shit. Worst possible end for him and his career, destroyed himself because he was all fucked up by Yuuri and thought this was the right thing to do. Then it ends with him alone in Russia because Yuuri's fucked off due to feeling horrible about causing this to happen while also not being spellbound by how awesome Victor is. Yurio loses all respect for him as does everyone else. Victor will go down as an arrogant champion that thought too highly of himself and didn't take the twilight years of his career seriously.

When in fact he's just a dumb lovestruck fool that never learned what to do with someone he cares about.

Like I said, I don't even know if I want them to touch BikeFairy beyond a couple cute hands-off shenanigans scenes where they go shopping together or take selfies together or something. I don't trust them with anything more delicate than that after this episode.

>>151250738
That's just life in the sport world, for most athletes there's always going to be someone better and newcomers that have more and crazier tricks under their sleeves.

>>151250876
From a sports perspective, that's great and acceptable.

From a story perspective, it's weak as fuck. Especially when the narrative makes a point that Yurio could only truly grasp his free skate when he has learned agape. He never learns it in any way and whenever he gets close, it's dropped and he reverts back to be a little bitch.

Quite disappointed.

>>151250971
He's gonna have a perfect season with zero problems because he's the fan favourite. Fanservice will ruin this show. I guarantee it.

>>151250865
Poor Chris, I wish he'd tasted gold at least once.

One shitty thing about Victor being a monster for so long is that he dominated for a span of entire careers. Skaters like Chris have come and left without ever tasting gold because he was fucking hogging everything especially for the last 5 years.

And now he's poised to do it again, only sharing his glory with a protege he choreographs/coaches and a former rinkmate he choreographs. There is literally no escaping Victor. Even Fairy and Piggy won on Victor's terms.

>>151250965
He's lived with him for 8 months. The entire hair-poking scene was supposed to be about bringing Victor down to a more human level. It was a cute way to do just that and they tossed it for nothing.

If Yuuri can't figure out that his idol is human after living with him for 8 months, I can't find it in me to like Yuuri anymore. Sorry. That's just how it is.

>>151251002

So you're implying Yuri isn't close enough to Victor to warrant the ability to gain common empathy? After several months of being by his side?

That makes BaldFat look hilariously bad.

>>151250846
Doujin fapping

>>151250766
His anxiety definitely fueled the last conflict between the two as he felt that Victor is wasting his time with coaching him while Victor could have been on the ice. As some people said, Victor never told Yuuri that he was becoming unhappy with skating. Yuuri knows that Victor will stick with him no matter what but his anxiety is telling him that Yuuri won't be enough and he has to be the one to cut their ties to make Victor free. He seriously didn't know that Victor would have gotten upset over it, which was the whole Yuuri in astonishment with crying Victor scene.

>>151250894

So?
Your personal experiences don't reflect everyone's.

I'm glad Yuuri showed his bad side. Victor wants to be with Yuuri through the tough moments and that's precious.

>>151251043
Yup, all I want. Keep it cutesy and sugary with them. No need to delve any further. I'm a fujo, I can read depth into my stupid 2D boy relationships by myself, I don't need anyone putting it there for me potentially at the cost of stupid drama.

>>151250876
>He worked hard as fuck and went beyong his actual physical limitations
So did everyone else though. But most of the other characters had a more concrete desire to win. Yurio didn't have much at stake since he's the newbie entering the ring. Yuuri and Chris has time against them. Phichit and Otabek were upholding their country's pride. Yuuri and JJ had a marriage waiting. Yurio just wanted it to impress people because he's competitive. It's weak narratively.

>>151251030
Yuuri is capable of getting scores like Victor too if he skates perfectly, plus he has crazy stamina. It must really suck for the other skaters.

>>151251126
>I don't need anyone putting it there for me potentially at the cost of stupid drama.
I wish that one day, one day, they will give us well-written the full homo narrative we deserve.

>>151251033
He did come to know Victor more as a person anon, I'm not refuting that. It's just that I'm sure that perception would still come back at times, especially with how low Yuuri's self esteem is and how he got someone like Victor to be his coach at times. Even if I married a celebrity, I bet there would still be times the realization would hit and I'd be like "oh wow, is this really a thing that happened"

>>151251112
More power to you then, but like I said, I personally can't accept the scene because it was all the fuck wrong to me. If you want me to spin it positively, I'll say I enjoyed the way Yuuri was written for the first 11 episodes.

>>151251033
>>151251062

Eight months is enough time to develop but it doesn't mean you completely transform and become free of flaws.

Piggy and Victor are staying together and Yuuri will definitely fuck up and hurt his feelings again and Victor will probably do the same because that's how relationships work.

>>151251142
Be an asshole, receive no recourse and do everything for yourself because no other motivation matters.

What a heartwarming tale.

>>151251195
It's kind of strange how Yuuri forgets he's a celebrity too.

>>151251157
Yeah it's still funny because a Pig win will have Victor's presence all over it. His coach, his choreographer, his inspiration, his homo PDA partner.

And Victor will be 100000000x more insufferable if his Pig wins than if he's won himself.

The only way to be free of Victor's shadow is to kill him.

>>151251195
>>151251229
I'm sorry, I just can't agree with you. If the scene had actually been framed as being out of bounds on Yuuri's part then I'd be right there along with you saying that this is defensible at least on some level, but the way it was presented doesn't suggest that to me at all. Which is disheartening, because I do feel that Yuuri's anxiety and god-worship of Victor were well-told for most of the series.

>>151251226
But he showed that side of himself to Minami too and Victor called him out on it. He fucked up but it wasn't like it was out of character.

People just didn't care back then because Minami is so much less popular than Victor

>>151251102
Yeah there's a difference between the scene in 7 and this one because Viktor knew he was saying something that would upset Yuuri and immediately tried to comfort him because it didn't work as planned. Yuuri had no idea he was saying anything other than a plan they had already agreed on. Yuuri's been under the impression that it would end after the GPF since that's what Viktor said and Viktor never told him any differently. He's genuinely shocked by Viktor's reaction. People are being way too harsh on him. On top of being upset, Viktor was angry, Yuuri might have been hesitant to comfort him because that's not what Yuuri would have wanted himself. I personally would have hated it if they resolved everything with a hug and kiss and all of their problems disappeared instantly.

>>151251291
He'd still haunt them even from the grave.

>>151251229
This, I think deep down people are just weirded out that Baldfat isn't as "pure" or whatever idealized thing they wanted it to be. They're flawed people, it's going to be a flawed relationship.

>>151251291
NICE BOAT ending incoming

>>151251195
>>151251229
It still makes you a bit of a stupid piece of shit and what's more all this inner turmoil self resignation horseshit happened and he never fucking once approached Victor. He could have at any time but no. That's hard. It's easier if you quit and pretend you're helping others when in fact you jut run from the pain. That's where I get pissed at this shit. Yuuri could have helped solve some of this if he took a step. Victor fucked up too and has even said he's not good with this stuff. But in the end Yuuri caused the biggest pain and did nothing better than the easy way out.


Yuuri deserves a punch in the teeth because maybe that would fucking wake him up.

It's frustrating that we never got to see them discuss after that cut, it was one of the few times Victor was not composed. Damn it.

I want a real blow up in season 2.

>>151251341
Clearly you're an expert on communication seeing as violence is your answer to miscommunication.

>>151251002
Actually, if you think about how Fairy skated his FP, he did learn what agape meant. He went off the rails and skated the Allegros Appassionata routine in a different feel than the prime ballerina that it was intended for. Fairy used his FP to tell Yuuri to keep competing or he's going to make Yuuri's last ride an unsatisfying exit for him.

>>151251308
But that was episode 5, and you'd think Yuri would've used that situation to become better at it in the future. And you'd think Yuri would be capable of doing such to the person he admires most. This isn't even from a romantic perspective. It's a bizarre interaction and I've never seen anything quite as funny in any recent anime I've watched.

>>151251304

Yuri on ice as a show rarely calls out shitty behavior. Both Yuris are evidence of this.

And Victor actually called him out twice. Once with Minami and calling him selfish in the hotel room. We're not supposed to approve of Yuuri flaws.

>>151251142
His stamina issues were mentioned like a million times and he still went over them, because he wanted to win.
he had the same motivations everyone else, but worked more than what his body could give him, he surpassed what his body could do.

That's why I specifically typed, physical limitations.

Victor wouldn't have wanted a hug in that situation anyway, like you said he was pissed off.

>>151251341
I kind of hope that at some point it's addressed how Yuuri appreciates it when Victor meets him halfway, but never bothers to reach out himself.

Victor isn't assertive about his own feelings, but people need to remember that for the most part, he has hustled to ask Yuuri just what it is that he needs. Yuuri never seems to reciprocate. Victor should be more forthcoming, but Yuuri should show more initiative in trying to understand Victor's by seeing Victor's actual viewpoint.

What was the point of that unused exhibition costume? Season 2 character design? He did seem to have longer hair.

Nobody's saying Yuuri isn't at fault, but you're actually retarded if you think that hitting him would help at all. It would just affirm his suspicions that he's not good enough.

>Nobody's saying Yuuri isn't at fault
Except half the damn thread taking the blame off him? Saying it wasn't his fault, it's whatever his mental illness or his anxiety? Except that's wrong, the person still knows what they're doing and especially in their 20s they know the reasons they do it. And he's never faced that sort of repercussion in his entire fucking life. That's why I laugh at the idea he should be defended, because it comes from people like him. Coddled and faced with no consequences for their actions but acting like their lives are so miserable because they're so terrible at life. Yet never improving. Yeah, getting a punch would be so horrific and traumatizing. That's what's terrible.

He's not good enough, he needs to get better and he actively chooses not to. He fucking gives up. He doesn't try and then gets treated like it's okay.

>>151251607
This is honestly one of the lewdest scenes in the show for me. Lewder than all the naked onsen scenes too even.

>>151251607

>>151251640
Quite possibly.

>>151251607
He was willing to let Victor give him a kissu to "satisfy him". That was cute and pretty much shows that there hasn't really been a lot of background kissu if he makes a face like that.

>>151251686
To be serious I don't know what else this scene could be other than innuendo. And normally I would brush it off as meaningless but these two are different, even if they never did go full homo.

>>151251698
They're not saying it's not his fault they're just explaining that he's not doing it because he's malicious or doesn't care about Viktor. He's faced plenty or repercussions for it. He has no friends, and he constantly fucks himself over in his career. He literally did what you wanted him to at the end of the episode. He sucked it up and did a perfect FS and decided to keep going. You just don't like him; so, you won't ever be pleased with anything he does.

>>151251698
Explaining how an anxiety ridden person function isn't excusing his actions but get a better understand where he's coming from. Yuuri isn't doing the shit he does out of malice.

>>151251698
As someone with anxiety I just want to say that this coddling of Yuuri and saying that he just froze up is unacceptable. The goal of living with mental illness isn't to roll over and accept it like there's nothing you can do when you fuck up because if the chemical imbalance in your brain, the goal is to learn how to work around that chemical imbalance so you can put your best foot forward. Taking all the blame off him does not do him or anyone like him any favors.

I'm not saying anyone has to hate him, mind, but I am saying that excusing his behavior here and writing it off with "well he's got anxiety!" is toeing a dangerous line.

Literally everyone is saying Yuuri was in the wrong and that this is one of his flaws. Yes he is mentally ill, and while it doesn't absolve him it at least explains that he can't just "turn it off".

People are saying he isn't fucking Hitler and doesn't deserve to be beaten or abandoned by his fiancé, you faggot.

There's a huge difference between accepting that someone makes stupid decisions because of a Mental Illness and excusing that they mistakes because of mental illness. Yuuri needs to get better, but it doesn't mean he's evil in the meantime.

The problem is that people are acting like what he did made no sense, that's why we're providing explanation. That's not the same as saying he was in the right for doing it.

It's because it wasn't one. It was the midpoint of two seasons.

>>151251822

Except nobody has done that.
When people flip out about how out of character it was for Yuuri it's only pointed out that it's really not, especially for a person with debilitating anxiety.

It's shown that he's fucked his personal and professional relationships because of it.

The fact that Victor sticks with him is a testament to the strength of their bond. Not an excuse for Yuuri.

What if next level means movie?

had anyone manage to make a /yoi/ simulator?

>>151251894
No, he isn't evil, but his total non-reaction here with the hair-lifting and the vague annoyance was unacceptable. You don't go and nonchalantly touch a person who is demonstrating openly that they are upset with you, nor do you immediately resort to blaming them when they start crying because of you.

That's why this whole scene is so weird, it's like there was no narrative suggestion of Yuuri being in the wrong despite him doing literally everything a person should not do when faced with the reality that they've hurt someone.

Victor does not control the narrative in YoI. He is a voice that fits into the overall narrative.

He's right that Yuuri is being a selfish asshole. That's why the scene should've carried more tension that suggested as such, rather than Yuuri just sort of getting away with the whole thing in a weird series of directional choices.

>>151252126
It's still good for Fairy to see that Viktor thinks he's someone that he can rely on. That has to be at least a little confidence boost for Fairy.

I agree. Much of their relationship is tied to skating obviously but that's not all, and that they keep tying it to skating goals and making themselves sad in the process should be addressed.

The directional choice there was that Yuuri was wrong but you are making the issue way bigger than it needed to.

>>151252214
No? Why the hell are you defaulting to that of all things? I have never once suggested Victor should hurt him.

What I'm saying is that Victor got mad, Yuuri had a non-reaction about it, and the scene was basically over. It was a weird directorial choice.

Then what were you expecting to happen?

Yuuri hurt his boyfriend and he knows it. He makes it up to him by skating a perfect program dedicated to their love. That's how this couple works.

>>151252301
Disagree considering Yuuri doesn't even fucking remember it makes it lesser than the 2015 GPF Gala.

The pair skate is more emotionally charged as it shows their affection as Stammi Vicino, a song about their relationship narratively, plays in the background and they are openly showing their affection for the other.
