The ways in which episode 12 has killed me
Victor crying TWENTY SECONDS into the episode. (I WAS NOT READY. NO ONE WAS READY.)
Victor who sees no meaning in skating if Yuuri is not there skating with him.
Victor is on a first-name basis with Stéphane Lambiel (please ignore my internal screaming).
Nice to see you again Canadian flag guy. Also someone please do something about whoever is in charge of mass-producing the “Jean Jack Leroy” banners.
Ok mini JJ is cute. Which proves that all human beings if sufficiently smol will be cute.
JJ - has evolved into actual cinnamon roll.
Seung-gil actually smiling. FOR JJ.
More scenes of Yuuri with glasses and gelled hair (hot damn).
This “dream” of Phichit’s.
I feel like we need to psychoanalyze his dream. I am concerned.
I have this in a separate post but I might as well add it in.
Everything in this scene.
Look at those shiny sparkling rings.
This might be where I started having these feelings.
Happy crying this time. Everyone is crying.
Yes, you sap, he’s skating for you.
Chris getting his own flower crown from Minako-sensei - I have many feels about this.
Yuzuru Hanyu (in his Let’s Go Crazy outfit) on the cover of Ice Jewels with JJ doing the JJ sign. (does Yuzuru KNOW?)
Yuri being more worried about Yuuri retiring than being happy about Victor returning to competitive skating (which he’s been arguing for all along, but now he doesn’t want that if it equates to Yuuri’s retirement).
This entire conversation. Remember how Yuri generally avoids hugs like the plague?
Setting up for season two? A friendly rivalry between Yuuri and Yuri (and now Victor) where they chase after each other’s records on the ice…
Otabek applauding Yuri’s free skate with a little smile on his face.
So much crying in this episode.
(I feel like the animators take a perverse joy in making the rings look as shiny and sparkly as possible whenever they’re in the frame, good job MAPPA)
I also like how everyone’s gone except for the clean-up crew, and Yuuri and Victor are still hugging in a corner.
Actually Yuuri is sitting on Victor’s lap. (I am fine, why do you ask.)
And then Stammi Vicino, Non Te Ne Andare started. This is more or less how I felt:
And then Victor skated in, and I swear my heart stopped for a moment.
By this point, my brain was mush.
Then there’s Yuuri in Russia running with Makkachin towards Victor…
And you realize we’re getting a second season…
…AND THEY FIT ALL OF THIS INTO 23 MINUTES.
