Haha, Victor is hilarious. Thought this episode was interesting with a break from the competition. Plus, Victor and Yuri went around town to do some fun things together.

Gotta love how Yurio still has fangirls almost everywhere he's at lol
The Victor and Yuri chemistry is quite appealing imo, Oddly enough, I do find Victor and Yurio's relationship to be entertaining as well. Good breather/build-up episode, needed this one after all the intensity.

This was definitely refreshing and made my day. I can now say I can rest in peace happily.
Someone please engrave a picture of Victuuri's wedding on my tombstone.

In all seriousness, this episode was great. Victuuri's relationship is so.. domestic. I love it.
They're so comfortable with each other, their relationship is really inspiring and rare to see.
It's a mature love.

While there were a lot of great things happening in this episode. Honestly,
my favorite scene out of the whole episode is
when Victor reflects/admires his ring early morning.



"Yuri, you may not realize this. But many others besides me got their "L words" from you.
Just how romantic and sentimental is that?

I can't believe that actually happened?!?! I'm literally in tears right now!

Can we safely say that this Yuri on Ice has finally broken past barriers that not many dared to venture?

I'm still in shock about the 'round and golden' part! Kubo and Sayo, you really didn't disappoint!

Also, the new ED is hilarious. They really don't give a damn anymore. lmao!!

So, from the very first episode, everything seems to be carefully planned to lead up to this episode. Victor being open and flirty, Yurio yelling at Yuuri back in episode 1...they weren't just falling into cliche character tropes. They were basically just acting upon how Yuuri was acting offscreen. Wow. It's great to see an anime treat its characters as if they develop even when the audience isn't watching.

The "Is Yuri on Ice Being Overanalyzed" thread seems a bit off now. If anything, people weren't analyzing it enough. This show is going to be so much fun to rewatch.

lol @ that ED (though very embarrassing for the main guy, I think his dance is cool). So this magazine cover was not random (about the 4th character).

victor's commentary over this episode was hilarious I really enjoyed how he introduced each character as well as give a little backstory. loved the part where jj's fans were arguing with yuri's fans. I will say this though was not aware of just how persistent yuri's fans really are until they started sniffing for his trail.

was not expecting this so soon was hopping it would happen by the finals. oh those bastards they knew what they were doing when they made that scene, the rings, the music, taking place in a church, making it the perfect setting for a wedding. as if this show doesn't tease that enough now there just toying with us and I love them for that.

don't add real life logic into this, anime has it's own rules real life rules don't apply to anime. also just let us have this don't try to ruin something beautiful.

Didn't expect Yuuri to be this wild when he's drunk.
So it was Yuuri who seduced Victor.


The signs were there all along.

This episode was a masterpiece! This might even be my favorite episode of the year. Got goosebumps when the ending scene started playing, with the background music playing and all the skaters entering the rink. The stakes are higher than ever and I honestly have no idea who will win. That ED though...

Good episode.

Wow, That totally happened right? Church, Bells, Rings. XD Yaoi on Ice is on fire. XD
Phitchit totally congratulated them as well. XD

Also that ED was awesome, Those photos. xD
Interesting that Yuri asked Victor to be his coach way back then when he was drunk.
Next episode should be awesome.

I was expecting the "gold and round" gift to be a gold medal. Somewhat disappointing that they went for the cliche of rings.

The 'twist' was great though. It explains why Viktor was so intimate with Yuuri since the beginning. It was because Yuuri was the one who started his moves on that party. You know it was weird because Viktor didn't behave around anyone else how he did with Yuuri.

Bro, don't you get? It's all part of the training, bro! They have to get engaged with gold rings so it will make the cosmic forces align and allow Yuuri to win gold medal, bro! How can you not see it's totally no homo, bro?

....... (lol couldn't carry on any longer with this xD)

But seriously, I wanna see what some people will come up with! This episode was so gloriously magnificent. Trully the best in the series so far!

Pitchit is gold. Victor is as bold as always, talking about winning the gold medal when they were surrounded by rivals, lol. JJ's intervention was priceless too xD

So that's why Chris acted so familiar with Yuri... Kind of disappointed that Victor first noticed Yuri for acting funny while being drunk and not for his figure skating skills.

I'm not fan of BL either, but I enjoy relationships with legitimate tenderness and chemistry of any gender. Yuuri and Viktor lack the forced archetypes of generic relationships (BL, like yuri and hetero romance have them). That's why they are enjoyable.
