Pretty good episode, I like that Yuri managed to pull himself together by cyrying his eyes out to Victor, something he couldn't do before with anyone else. (At least not before his turn to shine on the ice)

Kiss kinda surprised me but felt genuine.

BTW, if there’re enough rotations, the score will still be high even if you fall?

Just looked up the points system they use for Ice Skating.
Apparently falling down only makes you lose a few points, 1 point for the first and second fall, 2 points for third and fourth etc.

It's all about the difficulty level, the transitions, the timing with the music and loads more.

Thanks for the info. I don't quite know the points system of ice skating even in reality. Just feel like the artistry takes important part.

Just got back into regularized watching after a long dryish spell and this was a nice push back into YoI, had to recap the last few eps before this, but I'm glad to finally be watching again!

Glad to see Georgi's makeup isn't as emo this time around.

Relative to most M/M relationships in anime, they at least decided to make the foray into this rather concealed "kiss" scene between Vic/Yuuri a lot more subtle than a looot of shitty technical BL titles do, which is a plus? Moreover, it doesn't entirely detract from the skating, sports aspect of the show either. I appreciate that a little too. Will have to see how it pans out over the course of the next few eps though.

Ahh..watching this makes me remember when I was watching Evgeni Plushenko and his beautiful figure skating...Music in the anime is just wonderful! And that "hidden" kiss was entertaining :)

It's hard for me to ignore the yaoi content since I dislike it, but other than that, this episode was beautiful.

I'm glad that Yuri didn't win. It'd be naive (another "he won because he is the protagonist" theme).

About free programs, I think Phichit, Yuri and Christophe totally owned the rink. Georgy could join them if not many mistakes he commited due to discraction he felt after seeing his ex-girlfriend. Guang-Hong had a fine performance. Leo was devoured by emotions and stress, I guess. Too bad we didn't see his full performance.

I'm glad everything ended like: 1. Phichit 2. Yuri 3. Christophe. Fully deserved positions.

That kiss in the end was not that much unexpected, but... still, I didn't expect it to happen that early. :D Awesome moment.

I'm sad that this episode is just popular by the supposed kiss scene. There are more important things in this episode.

I'm having a hard time vibing with the other ice skaters this episode, but I still love Yuri and Victor as characters. Their shared moment at the end was very sweet, but I'm honestly doubting whether they actually kissed? They hardly showed it lol

I'm surprised that Yuri did not win in the end. Victor cheering him up and that kiss at the end was beautiful I really like this show.

Am I the only one who thought that the skating was on a whole other level than the last episode? Not just with Yuri, but with everyone. They all brought their A-Game, that's for sure!!!

I also LOVED the ending!!!! With the kiss! Wasn't expecting it so soon. I knew that Victor and Yuri kissed, but I always thought it was at the very end. I was wrong, and I'm not upset!!!

Loved all the skaters, Chris makes me feel a little uncomfortable, but his routines always make me bust out laughing. So that's a bonus, I guess.

The episode was effortlessly beautiful from Yuki being afraid that he would let down Victor. Then to Victor attempting to help him but really just became a moment for Yuki to vent out his fears of embarrassing Yuki. After all of that it ultimately relaxed him and made him test his own limits. And Holy Shit did they kiss omg 😳😳😳

AMAZING episode

this scene was really great uwu i wanted to wipe away yuuri's tears. putting aside all the romance/gay undertones, their relationship as coach and student is really very special & unique, warms my heart! i love what they have.


phichit is so cute! and yuuri's FS was the most expressive it has been, it was emotional even - they animated it well! i wasn't convinced previously on how great a figure skater he was, but that performance was really great, i was really drawn in!







but i’ll probably remember over and over again
you were there and everyone else was there

a lot of emotions in this episode. Yuri's performances always impress me. I'm not a fan of yaoi but the kiss was still in a really nice scene so it was cool.
