Not that anon but it was mostly Yuuri's reaction to his crying. It seemed cold and I can't even imagine how the night went down if they still were that stiff around each other the day afterwards.
It also comes with the fact that Victor suddenly wants to skate again which adds a lot of miscommunication issues, let alone with the fact that they didn't even address what happened at the banquet the night before. Nothing was resolved with them and they seem like they'll hurt each other a lot in the long way.
It's a mix of bad writing and my own autism towards fictional couples.

And there are people who said that Victor is getting the shorter end of the deal? Once Yuuri gets comfortable with his skills in bed, he is going to be a monster. Moe in the streets, freak in the sheets, etc.

Not really. YOI came in the pretty unique situation. There isn't much figure skating anime/manga. The last one I can remember was Ginban Kaleidoscope and that was 10 years ago. YOI managed to get a lot of buzz o SNS and it helps that the best female skater in the world is a unbashed proud fujo.

The saying 'being at the right place and time' is severly underwhelming what happened to YOI. The fact it's a runway hit in a season with Swordsluts and UtaPri is amazing.
>>
>>151418510
The difference between YoI and most sports anime is that usually sports anime takes place in high school with local, regional and at most national level competitions so older athletes wouldn't really relate to them like skaters do with YoI.

Next Wednesday there won't be a 13th episode, and while there was the "see you next level" at the end of the 12th episode, we don't have more official info yet. I feel like my life is empty and has no meaning now. I have other ways to keep myself busy but it's just not as fun as watching yoi and waiting for the next episodes.

Same anon, somehow I haven't accepted it yet and have this lingering feeling of "don't forget to watch YOI on Wednesday"

The one-cour anime era was a mistake.

Seriously though, YOI was a 24 episode anime that managed to fit in 12. The fact we got solid 11 episodes out of 12 despite the time restrict is amazing for MAPPA.

The fact that it takes place in a professional setting and not high school probably contributed to its popularity, it's really refreshing. And the fact that Yuri seems to be your typical low-confidence protagonist but is actually a high achiever makes him a lot more interesting and I think more relatable.

Yeah, the side characters would have more play. I think what they did with Fairy's character was good but they could have expanded more about his abandonment issues, his feelings over Victor and a proper reconciliation scene between the two and more interaction with Yuuri. Otabek being a little more fleshed out would help.

Even Fairy's seiyuu said he's curious about why Fairy is so close to his Dedushka and not his parents. I also think the whole Victor thing was horribly handled. Their relationship is not defined clearly at all and it didn't get proper resolution. It felt like some elephant in the room that Kubo or the writers just avoided at all costs and then hand-waved in the end.

Fairy is the most developed and fleshed-out character, but there were some things that could've been handled better in Season 1 or at all.
>>
What cat breed does Yurio own? Thinking of adopting one.

>>151419066
Pretty sure Kubo said Victor was going to get injured if it were a manga. Now that there's sequel going to be made with Victor back in the game, it's highly likely he will get injured.

I know that she mentioned not having time for it in s1 but would they pull it off in s2 knowing now how popular Victor is with nips? I feel like people could get upset. Then again it could also depend on how it's done.

Honestly their scene in episode 10 was one of my favorites in the show and I thought for sure it would mean they'd get resolution in the end but all they got was a hug that wasn't even about them and then they're standing together in Russia like everything's fine. I could understand if they even did something as simple as "oh they are like siblings and now that Fairy accepted Yuuri as part of his Agape etc. him and Victor just got over it" but they don't even say that much. Like I said, not defined at all and just hand-waved.

I agree it's a shame, it seems like it could be interesting.
>>
>>151419596
It says something about their feelings for each other, but it's not a real engagement because Yuuri is in denial. They're not even officially dating.
>>
Are we ready for the dub of episode 10 tomorrow?
>>
>>151419557
Anyone who's been skating for that long at that level has definitely been injured.
>>
>>151419729
I'm not watching the dub so I don't care, but I hope they don't botch such a great and touching episode.

Oh boy. Yes.
>>151419753
No? Spraining an ankle or something, sure, but plenty have athletes have gone their entire careers without serious injury.
>>
>>151419729
I hope they do what they did for Seung-Gil and don't try to give Otabek a weird accent.
>>
>>151419729
I want to watch the dub so I can experience the show again in a different way but I just can't get past the fake accents. Why do they make actors do that shit?
>>
>>151419753
>>151419799
I think we can infer from Victor's line to Yuri about "you're younger than me and haven't had any serious injuries" or whatever, that Victor has himself had a serious injury
>>
>>151419705
I think they might not have expected the reception to 10 to be exactly what it was. If you think of the point of 10 as revealing Yuuri's uninhibited side and what he can achieve when he expresses what he really wants without reservation, actually the ending makes total sense. Yuuri learned to express what he truly wants again and get past his anxiety, to keep skating himself, and for Victor to skate again too.

But with the episode as it was what most people took was sympathy for the reveals of Victor's perspective and what he's been going through, and that feels totally unresolved like you said.
>>
>>151419826
Otabek is going to have a full-on Borat voice and you know it
>>
>>151419862
Not really. He could also be implying that if he was younger than him and HAD had a serious injury than Yuuri's stamina might not be better than his.
>>
>>151419709
How do you know they're not?
>>
>>151419799
There aren't plenty of athletes who have skated at Victor's level.
>>
>>151419989
And Viktor wouldn't be at his level if he had missed a lot of valuable time with a serious injury. The fact that he's even going back should be proof enough that he must not have had one.
>>
If they are both competing they won't be able to have much sex anyways.
>>
>>151419966
Because episodes 11 and 12 make no sense if they were. They both treat breaking up the coach/student relationship like it's a total breakup, and Yuuri says when Victor steps down as coach he expects them to separate with Victor going back to Russia.

So officially, coach/student is the only relationship they have, even though there are more feelings involved on both sides.
>>
>>151419763
The episode 7 kiss was actually well done in the dub, so I think they'll be fine doing the faux-engagement
>>
>>151420072
But Victor wants to stay with Yuuri even after he retires

Sure it does. What parts are you referring to? Yuuri is in denial and doesn't let himself think Victor is serious.
>>
>>151420192
How? I really never got the impression they did anything.
>>
>>151420186
And somehow Yuuri doesn't understand that at all and through the end is still using their skating relationship as the platform for everything.

>>151420227
I think because it attracted the attention of normies (an anime depicting a gay romance that isn't BL) and actual athletes (because of its accurate depiction of the sport). From there it was just a ripple effect as the people who discovered it talked about it on social media, and other people finding it from that.
>>
>>151420192
They're obviously gay for each other, but it no way has the show given any evidence that they're in an established romantic relationship.

They're gay as fuck anon, but they're not dating. It would be insane if they were and they still were this insecure about staying together and having a relationship outside of skating.
>>
>>151420397
It does mean things. They're in love, but in Yuuri's brain it finds ways to think it doesn't, and as long as that goes on and Victor doesn't push they're not officially a couple. Victor just flirts heavily and Yuuri thinks he's playing.
>>

>>151420408
How does surpirsing him change anything? It's laughable how people try to no homo them, say this about any other pair in sports anime because it's definitely blown up shipbait, but not Baldfat, their relationship is integral to the plot.
>>
>>151420497
It's not not homo, you absolute fuckwit. You can be in love with someone and still not have made the step to be in a committed relationship.
>>
>>151420328
You can debate forever what the subtext of the show wants us to think Yuri and Victor are doing "off-camera", but there is no explicit confirmation that Yuri and Victor are anything more than coach and athlete. Period, full stop, the end.

If you're of the opinion that on shows like YoI that subtext=text, then it's obviously easy to make an argument that they're engaged and likely fucking. But it's simply never stated in the show.

As for the kiss, the fact that it a) it's still semi-ambiguous and b) it happens and then is never really referenced again makes it easy to hand-wave away as something that happened in the heat of the moment - more celebratory than romantic.
>>
>>151420497
Kissing him to surprise him means there's a different explanation than kissing him because he loves him or wants a serious relationship. It means Yuuri can tell himself it's a one-off thing that doesn't mean anything deeper.

Victor and Yuuri are full homo and in love, and Victor kissed him because he's in love with him, but they haven't worked that out between themselves yet.

>>151420497

Anon isn't saying that's what they believe. We all know Victor kissed him because he's full homo for Yuuri.

We're saying Yuuri is the retard arguing the No.6 kiss was a goodnight kiss, and that's keeping them from committing to a dating relationship.

He hasn't spelled it out very clearly, tbf. And by clearly I mean with words not abundant affection which Yuuri is used to with him anyway.

Both of them are only truly honest about their love on the ice. Their pair skate proved they are deeply in love, it's just once they come off the ice, the rest of the world comes into play.
>>
>>151420930
Even then. Their actions show they're in love, but in terms of words when discussing their concrete relationship, it's still all about coach/skater.

Well, I'd say /a/ is pretty splint of it, but the no-homo crew or people who like to over analyze everything still exist.

I think a lot of people gave up on arguing.
>>
>>151420823
Not that anon but if they had kissed like it was a familiar and common thing I would've believed they were dating

Instead we got baity almost kisses which shows they never do that even when they're alone

Because fujo goggles
>>
>>151421012
Of fucking course it's obvious Yuuri has sexual attraction for him. But internal thoughts about how attractive someone is doesn't equal a committed dating relationship, anon.

No one is questioning their mutual feelings, it's about "are they seriously in a full on dating relationship yet." The answer is no.
>>
>>151420779
Yuuri knows, but the thing with anxiety and low self of worth makes him feel unworthy of it. That's why he was ready to let Victor go in Episode 9 then Episode 11-12 because he feels that he is wasting the time Victor could have used for skating. That's why it's important for Victor to tell Yuuri what Yuuri means to him and stop hiding behind skating. The two are aware of the other's feelings but they are still hesitating due to insecurity and hesitation because both Victor and Yuuri don't want to be hurt by the other.

Maybe if you twist everything.

There is no need to. The two fucking pair skated to a song that was supposed to represent their relationship narrative-wise. And it's very telling that the duet version of Stammi Vicino omitted the dark and depressing bit of scorning love and wanting to find someone to love and went straight to lovers asking the each other to always stay together.

I understand the wanting of a kiss, but BaldFat's relationship has been confirmed.

Serious answer. Moonlanders believe that you can determine a person's personality through their bloodtype. Omitting Victor's bloodtype is to make the viewer wonder what is his true personality, the silly, lovable flirt or the guy who is super serious about his sport.

That /yoi/ opinion, demographically speaking, doesn't matter either.
>>
>>151421461
I never said fuckall about a rewrite retard. Fujos, which make up the vast majority of the YoI fanbase, buy it. MAL, who are most men and not fujos, are a tiny portion of the fanbase and are also clinically retarded.
>>
>>151421461
I have seen plenty of people shitting on it on tumblr and twitter though, and surprise surprise, their arguments are always significantly more rational and better thought out than the people who love it. The ones who love it are the ones who see it as revolutionary progressive LGBT representation and would rather die than admit they love a series that doesn't give them SJW brownie points. Many people were just in between, a little disappointed and in agreement that it was probably a rewrite, but they'll enjoy the good bits anyway.

The rewrite destroyed a lot of that song's narrative though. Just look at the lyrics "let's leave together, now I'm ready" which heavily implied they would retire competitive skating together

Nip twitter (like western twitter) liked the ending and buy the Baldfat relationship. /yoi/ (and MAL I guess and probably ANN) are not in touch.
>>
>>151421716
Does thinking they're both madly in love with each other but not actually dating yet because muh communication problems count as not believing in Baldfat?

Tumblr also screamed rewrite. No place is a hivemind.

I know. I love the way Uchiyama talks, it makes me think of a slightly older casual Fairy just shooting the shit and I'm sorry but Yuuri's seiyuu laugh is so sperg it reminds me of him so much I had to laugh.

Yes. We were specifically talking about people who believe in a confirmed Baldfat relationship. (Though there is a lot more grey area there. The "just good friends" idea is one seriously no one outside of MAL believes)

>>151421762
It never said that leaving meant they retired, that's pure speculah. I always saw it as that no matter what, from now on, they will never be separated. Which happened since Yuuri moved to St. Petersburg. Look, I am not happy with Victor returning to competitive skating as a lot of people, but they fucking fulfilled the song.

Not that anon, a lot of people weren't completely happy with EP12, especially with Victor returning to competitive skating, but they are happy with the pair skating though.

All in all, from my experience, people liked EP12 and majority doesn't believe it was completely perfect and had flaws in the writing. It's a nuance that escapes /a/ because /a/ is either it's good or it's shit and no in-between.

>>
>>151422760
They really shouldn't have wasted time on people who didn't even make the podium. Then again, JJ shouldn't have made the podium in the first place either.

Remember when everyone was convinced half of the FS programs would be cut? And then they were all shown. Madwoman.
>>
>>151422760
They should've cut Phichit and JJ's and had Otabek on the podium instead as it wouldn't take up as much time. Then there would atleast be time for Fairy's Gala too and a longer BaldFat duet.
>>
>>151422760
>My boy is so pure a precious little sinnamon roll spinoff when?????

>>151422861
because they should've been. There's no fucking reason to show the people who weren't going to make the podium when they are already tight on time having to rush everything. They cut the OP and ED and didn't have time to even show the Gold medalists Gala performance. Their priorities were a mess. If anything, they should've saved the non-podium stuff for the blu-ray if they wanted it in so badly.

I'm most pissed about Fairy's Gala performance being cut. He's the gold medalist, it should have absolutely been shown. but no, JJ/Miyano wank and Phichit sefiestick hamsters on ice is more important apparently. JJ's not even a main character podium or not and Phichit's was the least necessary thing in the whole episode.
>>
>>151423078
JJ being on the podium and extending his "drama didn't make sense ans was a complete waste of time.
>>
>>151423119
I know that, but his score still made practical sense.
>>
>>151423177
So they should have some sense to not give him a high score and not waste time on him.
>>
>>151423119
>>151423078
>>151423030
JJ placing on the podium over Otabek made sense if you accept that it was a reference to Chanflation, a real-life controversy where Canadian skater Patrick Chan won a bunch of titles in the early 2010s despite giving performances that were clearly worse than his opponents (including, most notably, when he inexplicably beat Denis Ten of Kazakhstan at Worlds):

>http://articles.latimes.com/2013/mar/15/sports/la-sp-world-figure-skating-20130316

We already know that Otabek and JJ are inspired at least in part by Ten and Chan, and there are a ton of other early 2010s skating references in the show, so it's not outrageous to think it's not coincidental.

>>151423226

Actually, the episodes would be reduced to 15 minutes each since they would have to cut out/censor all the gay. Aiden just really likes to hug his dear friend Jason! They're best bros.

>Aiden just really likes to hug his dear friend Jason! They're best bros

Yeah, this one time Jason got really winded at skating practice in front of a bunch of people and Aiden had to jump on him on the rink and give him CPR. That was a very valuable episode to teach kids about the importance of first aid!

Also Aiden is a very caring friend and likes to put chapstick on Jason.

>>
>>151423936

Yep, they had to toss a shitload of animators and money at it because they changed it last minute and needed to get it done.

I also think there was more to the scene between Piggy and Victor in the hotel room, but since it alluded to the original ending they had to cut it really weirdly at the moment Victor grabbed Yuri's shoulders and then handwave it as 'well we talked'.

It's really fucking obvious.
>>
>>151423876
>>151423880
I'm not knocking the possibility, but I highly doubt the entire last episode was rewritten. Maybe a couple portions of it at most.
>>
>>151423794
I think the fact that from early on Kubo mentioned wanting to make a sequel if she had the chance made it obvious she was going to leave it open for one. If anything was rewritten it wasn't anything too significant.
>>
>>151423979
Despite having great stamina on the ice, Jason puts in so much effort that he often feels weak after performing! That goof. Aiden is always there to help though, even if he needs to hold up his friend so he doesn't collapse.

Yuuri and Victor talk about their relationship without using skating as a cover.

Kissu.
>>
>>151424088
Before the regional tournament finals they exchanged bro finger bracelets as a good luck charm! Jason used his allowance to get them, so you know he cares deeply about their friendship.
>>
Jason gets stage fright, and doesn't trust himself to perform his program as well as he can in practice. Since he can't see himself while he performs, he asks Aiden to aid him by carefully watching his performance and signalling to him if he needs to do better or forgot to jump.
>>
>>151424138
Then what is Ian going to say to Jason in lieu of "there can't be two Yuris" in the bathroom?
>>
>>151424088

JJ would be renamed 'Jay' and he'd be a total Chad that plays for the rival high school

Yuuko would be 'Mackenzie' and she'd be Jason's little sister who married Jason's best friend. The triplets are his nieces. Aiden also has a dog named Macaroni and Jason's parents run a dog sitting business. Minako would be 'Marie' and she'd be his aunt.

It's more likely that the hotel scene would have alluded at the original ending, which is why it's suddenly cut. My bet it's that they would have mentioned Yuuri actually asking Victor to coach him in that scene, which explains why the whole thing is handwaved (hopefully for S2 now)

Them having more animators just means they were rushing it not that it was rewritten. I think someone mentioned early on the last episodes weren't even finished when it started airing.

Yeah, my interpretation was that the subtext of Victor and Fairy's conversation was "Yuuri is going to retire and leave me if he wins, so you have to beat him for me." I wish the show had made that a little clearer, though.

FatFairy confirmed.
>>
>>151424546
Fairy got pretty much zero scenes for himself in the last episode, everything he said or did was about Yuuri. Once he ran out of stuff to say about Yuuri, they kinda forgot about him.
>>
>>151424576
How does Fairy's Gala being cut equal him "not originally supposed to win" when him winning took up less time than Piggy winning would've seeing as they would've actually had him react to and celebrate it so there would be even LESS time for Welcome to the Madness?

I thought this was pretty obvious. Either that or it would mean actually exploring Victor more deeply as a character and they just wanted to keep him as mysterious as possible.

So in Season 2 either
-they keep the same programs, which would be boring and appalling narratively speaking since Yuuri has already skated his best YoI, not to mention the other returning skaters' routines
-they do a timeskip to the next season, which would be problematic as all the Baldfat development would have to happen offscreen, unless they decide to sloppily write it as "somehow no development has happened in those months"

Can routines be changed mid-season? Did Kubo write herself into a corner?
>>
>>151425510
Maybe you should read the thread anon.
>>
>>151425281
If you seriously think they weren't going to end it with BaldFat pair skating last no matter what you're dumb af. Performing order at the Gala is not indicative of anything here.
>>
>>151425284

Why are we calling him "Kotomine"? They never officially named the guy, so is this a nickname we're settling on?
>>
>>151425541
It'll probably be the second one, with the rest of the skating season being handwaved on top of the Baldfat stuff.

Routines can be changed mid season, but it'd be pretty stupid without a proper reason. Even if someone was to debut a new program, we'd still be seeing the majority of the same stuff.
>>
>>151425541
What if they do a timeskip but with flashbacks to show the inbetween?
>>
>>151425553
Not that anon, but it wouldn't have been out of place to have Fairy skate last as a funny ED/coda like in ep10.

Flashbacks sound reasonable. It could begin in springtime like season 1, but gloss over developments that have occurred within the 4-5 months between GPF and Nationals, and Worlds, and returning to square 1 for the new season.

>super emotional pairskating as a sendoff to the viewers

It would have been funny as fuck I agree, but incredibly out of place. Not the way they would've wanted to end a one-cour show where the main focus was BaldFat.
>>
>>151425627
It's just because he looks similar to a different character.
>>
>>151425664
I agree. I'd also wager that Baldfat has been apart due to competitions happening at the same time and that the last scene is them after recently reuniting.
>>
>>151425761
>>151425682
Can't wait to see Baldfat acting in a completely different way that will only be explained by a flashback in ep7

They probably dont even know yet. Lets face it, YoIs success has been insane and completely unplanned for.

I don't know which is worse. He might've gotten shafted on screentime this season, but atleast he had his own story and shit going on. It would suck if he's going to just be third-wheel next season, even if he gets more screentime. It's not that hard to balance these things as a writer (atleast it shouldn't be), but I don't really have my hopes up after his treatment by them this season.

He's really popular in Nipland, but obviously not as popular as BaldFat. It wouldn't be a waste at all.
>>
>>151427275
He looks so tired and lonely here, so heartbreaking. Maybe Piggy literally saved his life.
>>
>>151427683
Maybe he'll have more scenes with just Yuuri and/or just Victor, fleshing out his relationship with either of them?
>>
>>151425541
I feel like they might do an ova or 4 episode special for 4C and then start season 2 with world's flashbacks. The thing with Gook felt like a tease for something like that.
>>
>>151427627
He seems pretty popular in the west from what I've seen, not as popular as BaldFat though. I know he's very popular in Russia too. The Nips also love him.
>>
>>151427627
Really popular but Baldfat is still their #1, of course. Doesn't mean they wouldn't like more scenes with him.

>>151427411
>that embarassed Yuuri
Perfect.

Though I must be retarded, I don't understand what is Yuuri giving Victor in the last two parts. A box with a ring?
>>
>>151427811
That MAPPA (director? president?) also mentioned Fairy was his favorite and that he was a fascinating character. One can hope he'll get more focus next season. There's literally no reason for them not to.
>>
>>151427627
I don't agree, it's T&B all over again, people love Baldfat plus a lot of other characters because they are all endearing somewhere. MAPPA made sure they spent all the time they could on each of them so it's only natural I guess.
>>
>>151427847
I'm not sure either, but I think you're right that it's a ring box.
>>
>>151427762
That would be nice. I enjoyed all his scenes with Yuuri and felt like his Victor relationship was major wasted potential. I would like him to have his own story/struggle as well though. He doesn't have to be very buddy buddy with Victor and Yuuri. He can still do his own thing, like I said it's really not hard to balance this stuff.
>>
>>151426896
I'm torn between Yakov loving Yuuri because he's so dedicated or being annoyed with him since he's as stubborn as Victor.
>>
>>151427886
This. I know BaldFat is the main appeal of this show, but that's not the only thing the show is about and the rest of the characters (most of them) are great and clearly had effort put into them. Fairy being the most developed and fleshed-out of the main 3 despite not having as much screentime is a prime example.
>>
>>151427762
If they do the GPF again, it could be something like he's with just Yuuri in one qualifier and just Viktor in the other. I doubt they'd pit baldfat against each other til the end anyway. If they do FC/EC/Worlds then it would be a similar thing, but only with Viktor.

They're both pretty cold and withdrawn which makes them have trouble showing affection to the people they care about. Not to mention the whole reinventing yourself for your performance thing, and Yuuri's main strength is his dance background making him super graceful on the ice. Yuuri is basically Lilya's ideal student.

That's obvious, yes. All these characters have been receiving so much attention already that you can feel a lot of people's love behind the scene. Let's hope MAPPA is going to get all reinforcements and time they have been needing from the beginning. They deserve it so much.
I'm OK with waiting, After all I've been waiting for T&B S2 all this time. It can't be worse.

T&B's problem was Sunrise being dicks, YOI is lucky with MAPPA.

Now anon, don't jinx it. I'm okay with waiting whatever it takes to get a good second season but I also want it to happen in this decade.

If they keep making seasons, do you think Makkachin will inexplicably stay alive and well?
>>
>>151429324
Makkachin is aiming to break the WR for oldest dog, by the end Yuuri will be carrying him on his back for runs.
>>
>>151428609
I don't want to see him again, whatever his 'story' is, and I have good reasons for that.

This will be the ultimate test for both Yuuri's anxiety and his comfort-based autism.

I want to see this, but it also makes me want to cry.

It's kind of sad having a very old dog, they tend to be blind and deaf by that point. Had one live to be 19, he wouldn't hear you if you clapped your hands behind him.

I couldn't agree more. They should erect statues to the people who worked on T&B because they are real heroes.
If only someone would snatch these rights away.
The Comiket is still literally filled with T&B circles even after all these years.

I hope we're going to get with YoI all we were refused with T&B.

If they made official ones, they'd undoubtedly be awful and probably use the promo art.
>>
>>151429324
No. And I'm going to need buckets for my tears.

I know it would mean the beginning of a new area for Victor, but even if it's unavoidable I hope MAPPA will handle Victor's heart with all the care they can.

MAPPA is a studio who has heart and they need the money, they'll milk YOI for all it's worth. Which is good for us.
>>
>>151429518
I don't. Korea would imagine harm anywhere as long as it's Japanese, that's all.

It'll be the same face I make waiting for new HxH chapters, as I become more resigned and mildly depressed but never quite losing hope.
>>
>>151429180
Sunrise gets a much bigger share of production than pretty much every other studio, and MAPPAs is tiny compared to that. MAPPA likely won't even get a say in if a second season is greenlit. Thats up to Avex and Asahi.

>>151429518
what they're trying to say is that gooks would bitch about seunggil and want to protest mappa/kubo

Because it's a low key way of saying "there's not official contract for S2 given that we have to wait for BD sales figures, but most likely we will be green light so stay hyped faggots"

or something like that

It's probably greenlit since Kubo changed her background to Saint Petersberg, they're just waiting to announce it.

Are you that Anon who pretends all Japanese goods are badly made with the paint coming off at the first touch etc?

Isn't there some kind of event coming up in the new year? They're probably waiting until then to announce it.
>>
>>151429864
How about no.
>>
>>151430279
No, I'm just going by the general quality of the YoI merch so far.
