Wow, that Canadian skater is a little obnoxious.

Felt bad for Yurio, although I wish there could've been more characterization between him and his grandpa.

Ok, many different feels, even if the episode felt a bit like a filler.

JJ is a huge NO. Poor Mamoru Miyano, they give you all the crazyass characters lol

Yuri and Victor are a stated married couple fabulous as ever, that kiss to the jury was very unexpected. Yuri, my boy, you're growing so fast <3
And yet, why isn't anyone commenting Yuri's poodle cover? I mean YOU'RE 23 AND MALE, what the hell is that cover xD Opposing feelings.

And, speaking of poodle, wtf is that thing with the poor dog, really unrequested and of bad taste. Also, the boy is competing for a super important challenge, what do you call him for and make him worried and depressed? Idk.

Yurio remains our favourite tsundere princess :D :D

Edit: The animation. They can make very well done animation on the dances but often in the normal parts (aka everything outside the dances) is, dunno, hastily made? I mean, is not that much fluid.

I absolutely hated both Seung Gil and Michele. Emil seemed cute but he almost didn't appear at all and I kinda have mixed feelings for JJ as he seems like a fun character but I also wanna fight him at all costs. I prefer Chris waaaaaay more, though.

Man, I'm gonna miss Georgi. As for the episode, it was definitely less dramatic than I was expecting and I definitely missed some sort of mention of the kiss, but it was a fun, relaxed episode. That cliffhanger was pretty awkward though. Also, I desperetely need to now if Pichit will make it to the GPF.

Time to serious question now. After watching episode 8, I had that weird feeling that Yuri and Viktor are showing... their gayness (or affection XD) just to make new fans and to gain popularity. What do you think? >.< I really hope I'm wrong...

Are you talking about fujoshis? Or the spectators in the anime?
I admit that the scene where Yuri pulls Victor's tie comes at the worst possible moment. :o (especially this time)
In any case the fujoshis are probably very glad.

I just watched this episode recently and I'll give my take on it for now. Yuri is coming off strong with his performances as I admire him for his courage and passion for figure skating. I do agree about JJ being over the top annoying at points though he held off well in his performance. I like Chris way better than him any day. :)

Best part was Sala as she looks very attractive while her brother, Mickey, competes in the program as well. She really looked beautiful as a figure skater.

I know that Yurio is not going to give up so easily as he was getting better at the end having his two coaches there. I do believe though that Yurio and Yuri will struggle to compete who will be the winner here at this rate. I'm worried what might happen to Yuri as it's going to become a problem, especially now that Victor decides to ask Yakov to be Yuri's coach for the time being until the situation is resolved with his dog at the vet. D:

Well, can't wait to see what happens next week!

He didn't say that Victor will leave him. He simply said that it would be the last time he could skate the Eros program with Victor by his side.


I saw with English sub and he pretty much said that. Yurio said he'll win and bring Viktor back Russia. After that Yuri started to wonder about what Viktor'll do.
And I watched again, during his performance he was worried about being his coach.

Personally I came to conclusion: it's all about coach-student relationship. Personally. According to me. In my humble opinion.


One of the creators confirmed that Yuri and Victor kissed.

They are in a romantic relationship, Yuri was worried because Victor wouldn't be by his side anymore. They probably haven't discussed what would happen if Yuri looses since their goal is to win. Plus Yuri just gets anxious easily.

Ahh! Another awesome episode! :)

Kinda disappointed the great kiss in episode 7 was not mentioned at all, but I had a feeling that was coming. However, I can tell Yuri and Victor are becoming closer, notably when Yuri boldly pulled Victor close to him. Uhuhuh.... :3 I feel a bit overwhelmed by all the new characters coming in, but the main focus is for Yuri to win the Grand Prix and with all the competitions.. I just don't know how they can smash it all in 12 or 13 episodes, but that is why Season 2 is a must!! I really hope by the end of the anime, we see Victor and Yuri together.. Their bond is just so beautiful. And I want to see Victor favor Yuri a bit more because I feel like we don't see much scenes that clearly tell us why Victor sees Yuri as someone special to him except when Yuri surprises him when he skates.

But anyway, I really hope Makkachin does not die. How damn horrible would that be.. #PrayforMakkachin #IfMakkachinDiesWeRiot

I can't wait for the next episode.

Hmm, I don't know. If I imagined it and Yuri won the Grand Prix and Victor would no longer have the excuse to be his coach, would they be both satisfied? Like would they part each other with a few last heartfelt words and leave like that? Seems pretty dull to me. I think they're beyond a coach-student relationship, just maybe not beyond enough to say it's a romantic one, yet (I'm hoping).

And yes maybe in the beginning when Yuri and Yurio were fighting over Victor Yuri was concerned purely because Victor was a role model to Yuri and ya-dah ya-dah, but I think when it came to Victor telling him he'd resign as his coach in Episode 7, Yuri was upset for more reasons. Victor had already changed his life and for him to leave like that would make Yuri feel empty in my opinion. I mean, I'm pretty sure Yuri and him had already gotten used to their schedule with practicing and such. I'm gonna think safe and say maybe it's not to the extent Yuri loves him romantically, but I'm pretty sure he does in a pure way. It should be the same with Victor too..

I don't know why so many people liked this episode, it was definitely my least favourite so far.
The new characters are all rather boring and/or annoying to me, I actually had to fast-forward JJ's performance because I couldn't stand him.
There was barely any interaction between Yuuri and Victor and the few scenes they had together seemed like fujoshi fanservice, they gave me a very „kinky“ vibe and that's really not what I hoped this anime would be.
Putting the dog in danger in the worst possible moment is a horrible plot device and unnecessary drama for sure. It seems like a way to force interaction between Yuuri and Yurio and that's just.. really cheep.
Seeing Yurio was nice but his character is still very flat, I wish they would have shown more of his background or anything interesting at all.

I'm overall really disappointed and I won't keep watching if it continues like this :/

I cannot stand JJ. He needs to stop. Though with MM voicing, I did slightly enjoy the fact that it felt like Tsukiyama on Ice.

I don't deny there is a strong bond between them or even love. I deny that is romantic love, romantic relationship. It's based on acknowledging skating skills and coach-student type. Perhaps Viktor just wants to bring out Yuuri's sexuality which he entirely lacks of. Like he switched the Eros and Agape themes between the two Yuri.

But as I said; argument over kiss or romance is ruining the comment section and I really don't want to contribute to it anymore. If anyone want to discuss it, at least leave me out, quoting my comments.

And to be honest: I don't care what will happen to 2 of them after the Grand Prix. Yuuri will level up to being a full-fledged rival of him (didn't he say originally something like that?) or whatever.

Yuri is really trying to be provocative. It's true that nobody in the audience is surprised at their relationship. They had to get used to it. (After the famous kiss of episode 7)





Personally I hope that Yamamoto Sayo will stop a bit with the fan service or that she assumes that it's a shonen ai. (I will probably drop at this moment ...)

There are a bunch of people saying that there were much fewer moments that can be classes as ‘fanservice’ (though I do dislike calling it that, since it is not what it is, but for the lack of a better word, I will have to with fanservice) in this episode. That got me thinking that maybe it was a representation of the changes that have taken place in the relationship between Viktor and Yuuri.
They started off all flirty, with Viktor getting all up into Yuuri’s personal space and Yuuri seducing Viktor with his skating. But that is pretty much how all relationships begin. With two individuals dancing around each other. Till something changes.
And for Viktor and Yuuri the change was the much debated ‘kiss’ of episode 7. (Still a firm believer that it was in fact a kiss).
So the lack of Viktuuri moments in episode 8 could just be indicative of the change in Viktor and Yuuri’s relationship where seem to have reached a more comfortable dynamic. They still do flirt but it is far more toned down because their relationship has matured past that stage.
Just my thoughts though

For anyone who is still wondering about the kiss.

Basically the person says that they synchronized with another show airing on the same day where the characters experienced their first kiss. So the kiss was indirectly confirmed.

You can also clearly tell from this episode that Yuri and Victor are in love.

Also, excited for the next episode.

I think Sala is the girl from Detroit!
Not Betty (of course since her name is Sala), the girl who wrote "Yuri on Ice" music, but the girl who hug Yuuri in the hospital. She was probably an ice skatter also because the accident was in the ice rink and she was there so... plus, the way Yuuri look at her, the way she looks interested by him... I will be more than surprised if Sala is not that girl!
And it would be a good thing for Yuuri because he still feels guilty about what he did at that time, so he can explain it to her. She's probably interested by him in a romantic way but I'm sure that it will only make Victor/Yuuri love even stronger and even more explicit (for the watchers who were not able to notice yet all the love between them (I know that it's mostly because of the bad english sub and all the things lost in translation (as polite form, irony...)) but just watching them together is enough to feel their love... but I have maybe too much empathy)



About Yakov. He will be Yuuri's coach for ONE day since ep9 will be Russia #6 second and last day. I think he's a good coach and I think he changed his mind (at leat a little) about Victor being a coach. Because at first (ep2) he said that Victor only think about himself so there's not way he can become a coach, second (ep6) he said he can't lose to a third rate coach (but Yuuri was better than Georgi) and third (ep7) he said "you still have a long way to do as a coach" when Yuuri consoled him.
And as a coach he should have notice how Yuuri changed from previous seasons, and it's all because of Victor (and their love of course ^_-)

About Yurio... well, I don't like him! I just want to slap his stupid face everytime he open his mouth... but he was cute with his grandfather! That grandfather everyone thought he was dead in ep3!
But I want him to lose before the final! Not only because I don't like him, but mostly because if he's already in Final in his first year as senior, his ice skater life would be boring no? Like Victor who lose his motivation because he's winning all the time, and he's 27 not 15! Plus, Yurio seems to be stronger after losing, so I want him to lose now, and comeback next year stronger (and manly of possible!) and fight against Victor and Yuuri! Because I think Victor will be back as skater next year and will fight againt Yuuri (but they will not break up of course!). They will practice together (without coach) in Hasetsu or in Saint Petersbourgh with Yakov! (so even if I don't think it's possible, we can have a second season ^o^)
And I thing Yurio think that Victor is with Yuuri only as a coach (he's not the only one here!) mostly because he still never think about love and still not notice their love (or maybe he's really in love with Victor but it's unlikely)


I also don't like JJ! not as a character, in fact he's pretty funny but I just think he don't fit "Yuri on Ice" series! He's more a showman than an ice skater, and I could even look at him in ice! He's a good skater, but all the song around make me lose my concentration and I don't look at the skating part, I hope his Free Programm will be only music (like Minami-kun)... but I hate him for ignoring Yuuri at that time... Yuuri is really too kind!

About Victor kissing Yuuri's shoes. I was thinking about what Chris said in ep6 ebout Master/Servant and also about Yuuri crying speacg (ep7) about being worried about Victor if he don't do well. But also about ep2 when Victor said he need a spell to change a piggy into a prince! It was really like Victor was near his prince, it was cute!

For the triplets, they are acting way too adult for 6 years old kids, but it's like this from the very beginning... they are the cute Cupids who bring Yuuri and Victor together!^o^


But I read here some comment about that kiss, and why nobody speak about it (in the series) so just saying, it was 3 weeks ago since it was in Beijing #3 second day and now we are in Moscow #6 first day.
And also someone saying that Yuuri's family will speak with Victor about that kiss when come back in Hasetsu for Makkachin... Seriouisly??? They are ADULTS!!! Plus, they were in Hasetsu between China and Russia...
The only thing who change with that kiss is that is more official than before (if it's possible!)! Because the other ice skaters, the journalists, Yuuri's family already knew it... they looked surprise because it was in public (and online on TV for the WHOLE world!) and during the competition... just look at Yuuri's smile, if it was his first kiss, his reaction would be different no?
So fOr the kiss, it was their first public kiss, but not their first kiss. They are together since the second part of ep4 probably from June 13 or just few days before. But I will not write more about it here. I someone want to speak about it, you can comment my profile or send private message...

The second part of ep12 will be Victor and Yuuri dancing together (of course) "Hanarezuni soba ni ite" during the exhibition after the Final before or after Victor will annonce his come back in the competition!

When I read some comments here, I think we don't even watch the same series... O_o

So fOr the kiss, it was their first public kiss, but not their first kiss. They are together since the second part of ep4 probably from June 13 or just few days before. But I will not write more about it here. I someone want to speak about it, you can comment my profile or send private message...

The second part of ep12 will be Victor and Yuuri dancing together (of course) "Hanarezuni soba ni ite" during the exhibition after the Final before or after Victor will annonce his come back in the competition!

When I read some comments here, I think we don't even watch the same series... O_o


Are you between the creators of the show?

Basically the person says that they synchronized with another show airing on the same day where the characters experienced their first kiss. So the kiss was indirectly confirmed.

You can also clearly tell from this episode that Yuri and Victor are in love.

Also, excited for the next episode.


Old news. This was already discussed several times.


I know, I just wanted to clarify since there are still people who deny it.

Well, I'm one of them. My arguments can be found in the thread of episode 7.

Everyone has their own opinions but there are more arguments supporting the relationship then there are against it.

You wrote it like facts. Yeah, I suspected that you are not but in that case you raised in a whole new level of being delusional, wow! :) Lol.

You're right, I forgot an other "I think"!
That said, I sure it was a kiss (the other part is only "I think"), mostly because of the way they look at each other just after.
BUT, even if I'm sure it was a kiss, there is different kind of kiss:
- the romantic kiss "I kissed you because I love you"
- the Russian kiss (I heard Russian kiss often on the lips even same sex, and I even heard our president (the French one, don't remember which one) did it! But I'm not sure about it, and I don't know if they also heard about it in Japan.
- the "I want to surprise you more than you surprised me" kiss
- the "you're seduced me with your skatting" kiss, but that would be after Eros, so it's unlikely
The only way we have to know, if the series never bring it again, or something more obvious, is to wait for the DVD in March 2017, with MAYBE an uncensored kiss version...

Just for reference, June 13 is the day Yuuri received the music "Yuri on Ice" from Betty and jumped on Victor's bed, woke him up like it was nothing... It's hard (FOR ME) to believe he would do it if Victor were only his god or his coach...

I guess you watched the sub/dub but did you read the comment/blog about the wrong/not so good translation? (you don't have to read/believe the interpretation parts, even I don't believe in most of them)


That said, I wrote a lot about the whole episode, and you only bring back the short part about the kiss...

Okay, okay, I don't want to argue anymore. Especially the kiss thing. Not the translation/words made me doubtful.

Sorry for being offensive but if you read back, maybe you realized it too, that sounded more like facts, especially the episode 12 :) Or at least for me which made me... laugh. But perhaps I just misunderstood you.

Anyway, I take my leave from the episodes' comment-sections. Spared too much time. Think as you please, fangirls :)

PS: But Makkachin, I still root for ya', 'ship' you and Viktor 'til the end! :)

As much as I enjoy watching Yuri on Ice and even though "experts" and fans are calling it "one of a kind" or the "first of its kind" because obviously there aren't many Anime out there that revolves around professional figure skating, when you look at it closely, it's no different from your regular Anime with its regurgitated tropes.

You got Japanese Yuri, the hero who doesn't think he's that good but does his best. He's always in doubt. Almost every single Anime has this kind of protagonist.

You got your tsunderes, kuuderes, shoutas, gay coaches who are too touchy-feely, butt loads of fan service which the brainless masses will eat up, implied incest, etc.

What annoys me about this series is how immature they act and how "Anime/manga-ish" they act when off the ice. It's no different from how regular Anime characters act. I was hoping they would create something more realistic but we can't have our cake and eat it. To some people, characters acting like regular Anime characters such as acting like a bunch of ten-year-old girls giggling over the dumbest shit and going SD (super deformed) is a release from all the seriousness of figure skating but I don't think so. The parts when they skate are gorgeous and artistic but when it take THAT away from this series, it's just a regular boring Anime that's not innovative at all.

That part where Seung-gil turned down Sala and she was spouting crap about "not turning a lady down" I'm pretty sure that's a Japanese thing. I have friends from Italy and all over the world and turning down someone for a meal or whatever is pretty normal and I don't know why had to bring sex/gender into it. Not all countries are gender-sensitive and find it as an attack on a particular gender just because someone turned them down. I wonder if the author did her research on foreign cultures? Then again, it's supposed to be relatable to a Japanese audience. In Anime (and in some parts of Japan such as Tokyo, Osaka, etc.), it's considered to be edgy, cool and sophisticated to be able to speak some foreign words but when they mispronounce it and flaunt it, it's just cringe-worthy.

I'm sick and tired of hearing Japanese Yuri's "Yuri on Ice" theme song. His performance is the one I look forward to the least. He's just repeating the same thing over and over again. I'm glad Seung-gil is here, I want someone serious for once. The other skaters act like a bunch of fucking children and it's fucking annoying. Viktor always acts like Japanese's Yuri's wife, who's always wet and ready to get fucked from behind. There are only two things this shows succeeds in and it's the presentation of the figure skating itself and its heavy yaoi/BL overtones which makes it popular in the first place. Let's admit it, this show wouldn't be popular if fujoshis didn't hold onto that chance that the MCs would be involved in romantic (or implied romantic) situations.

Everyone's praising this for being first of its kind and whatnot but it's time to dissect it. I don't care if I get a lot of hate for this because I'm sure there are plenty of people who feel the same way.

I can't stop feeling like this show is way too fast paced.I mean I can understand and appreciate the fact that they want to focus on performances more but everything else just feels like a big rushed generic mess.I can't get attached to the charatcers no matter how hard I try.

At this point I can't help myself but root for Yurio only.I know he isn't the most original character but I just like him.I liked his performence just wish he could overcome his complex already but considering he's only 15 I can just accept it.

Also I don't like JJ at all.Props to his performance as it was awesome but his personality is beyond awful and poorly written.I can accept arrogance in a character but his was way too exaggerated to the point makes him legit unlikeable.Anyways an OK episode.

Outside of a couple of weird animation choices. It was pretty fun. Also I'm so happy to be caught up finally. This show is pretty cool. Granted they have been reusing some footage and the crowd shots are just stills.
I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon.
