Yuri on Ice from Yakov’s perspective

Banquet:

 - Yuri don’t let yourself get baited into a dance batt- I SAID DON’T GET BAITED INTO A DANCE BATTLE! GODDAMNIT YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO BE MEETING SPONSERS!

- Victor! Mila! Stop encouraging them! AND STOP TAKING PICTURES

- Victor you’re not even drunk! STOP DANCING WITH THE SLOPPY DRUNK

- Why is there a stripper pole in here? Why is this allowed to get out of hand? WHERE THE HELL ARE CHRIS AND THIS DRUNK’S COACHES?!?

- Victor! DON’T LET DRUNKS HUMP YOU IN FRONT OF SPONSERS! NO, YOU CAN’T TAKE HIM BACK TO HIS ROOM! I DON’T CARE IF YOU THINK YOU’RE IN LOVE HE’S DRUNK AND YOU’RE AN IDIOT! I’LL TAKE HIM BACK TO HIS ROOM BEFORE YOU MAKE ANY MORE BAD DECISIONS.

- *sends Celestino a strongly worded email about keeping an eye on his pupils in the future the next morning*

Episode One

- Victor stop. Stop pining. You aren’t in love. No I don’t believe in love at first sight and I certainly don’t believe in love at first drunken humping. You’re right I’m not taking this seriously. He hasn’t contacted you because he was DRUNK OUT OF HIS MIND! Did you see how much booze he downed? It’s a wonder he didn’t die of alcohol poisoning. Just stfu and skate.

- Victor no. It’s not a message. Victor no! Don’t give up your career for an ill-advised booty call! UGH if I can’t stop you just make sure our Yuri doesn’t find out where you went.

Episode Two

- WHY ARE YOU IN JAPAN TOO YURI! I COULDN’T STOP VICTOR MAKING AN ILL-ADVISED BOOTY CALL BUT YOU ARE TOO YOUNG TO BE ATTEMPTING THAT! YEAH SURE YOU’RE NOT THERE FOR THAT I’VE SEEN YOUR ROOM! …NO ONE HAS 30 POSTERS OF SOMEONE IN THEIR ROOM BECAUSE THEY ‘HATE THEM JUST SO MUCH’ YOU’RE FOOLING NO ONE KID!

Episode Three

- OMFG did you really give him a program about the night he got sloppy drunk and you turned into even a bigger moron? You’re going to put me into an early grave.

Episode Four

- MILA! STOP POKING THE SMOL ANGRY CHILD! HIS SCREECHING HURTS MY EARS!

- Wait, why the hell do I have to go live with my ex-wife and the angsty teen? I don’t want to have to listen to a list of my failures or a catalogue of all the ways Drunk Yuri is the worst especially as it tends to devolve into ‘stupid pig, how dare he be so good looking’.

Episode Five

- Victor stop trying to pretend this isn’t an elaborate booty call. This is not how coaching works.

Episode Six

- I have the living legend who gave it all up to be a pretend coach in order to get with a sloppy drunk, a sadist of a female skater who stirs up trouble on purpose, an angsty teen who can’t tell the difference between having a crush and hating someone and an emo skater who is far too old to be as emo as he is. Kill me now.

Episode Seven

- Maybe I was giving Victor a disservice. His student is actually doing quite well and maybe they are taking it seriously and HOLY FUCK NEVERMIND JUST KISS YOUR STUDENT IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD VICTOR YOU ASSHAT

Episode Eight

- Yuri has calmed down and I’m just going to ignore Victor. Yep that’ll work OMFG did you HAVE TO KISS HIS FUCKING SKATE?!? THIS IS WHY YOU WEREN’T ALLOWED TO TAKE HIM BACK TO THE HOTEL ROOM! YOU HAVE NO CHILL!

- You want me to what? Be his coach? Well…only because I like Maccachin.

Episode Nine

- You’re alright actually, I hereby allow you the name Japanese Yuri instead of Drunk Yuri. You may be the only sane person I know surprisingly. I still am going to tell you off for fucking up though.

- ….I take it all back. WTF was up with all the hugging.

Episode Ten

- …They got engaged. Victor really is going to marry him….I’m not even surprised at this point. Fine. Keep him Japanese Yuri. He’s a pain in the ass anyway.

Episode Eleven

-  YES! I AM A PROUD DAD/COACH! HAPPIEST I’VE BEEN THIS WHOLE YEAR

Episode Twelve

- WTF? You’re coming back now? Idek what’s going on anymore.

- Well done Yuri! I’m so proud of you for winning gold!

- …They are doing a super romantic pairs skate because of course they are.

- Okay so Victor is coming back to Russia to train cool….wait what do you mean you’re still going to coach Japanese Yuri? WTF? HOW WOULD THAT EVEN WORK? WTF NO.

Post Episode Twelve

- STOP FLIRTING IN THE RINK! WHY GOD WHY AM I BEING PUNISHED?

- STOP GROPING HIM VICTOR THERE ARE CHILDREN PRESENT

-  YURI P STOP THROWING THINGS EVERY TIME THEY FLIRT

-  I HATE ALL OF MY CHILDREN SO MUCH.

- YOU’RE ALL THE REASON I HAVE NO HAIR

Pray for Yakov

Merry Christmas na ja

It's been one year since the first Wednesday without Yuri on Ice

[jinlian]

i still can’t believe we’re going to hear yuri on ice at the olympics as a competition piece. fucking. wild. i cannot fathom what it must feel like to be sayo yamamoto rn but it has to feel pretty fucking great

[jinlian]

no but honestly like no studio wanted to take on her idea for a niche figure skating original anime and then when it was made it got mocked for being “just about BL” by male directors in the industry and now it’s one of the best selling series of all time and loved by world champions and top competitors in the field and getting hyped at major official isu events and partnering with mizuno and will be used in competition at the olympics. poetic. justice.

@colgraph merry chrissus

I view all of the other fusions besides victuuri as platonic, but definitely! I had a scenario in mind for otabek and yuri’s, so I might draw it later

@captain-ereri-yaoilover2 !!!!! of course you can omg??? I’m really happy that you’d want to cosplay them!! <’:

Hypable's BattleShips Semi-Finals: Klance VS Victuuri

Hypable's BattleShips continues with the last semi-final! Will Klance or Victuuri go up against Supercorp for the finals? You decide!

Hey guys, so I never make posts like this or, frankly, usually care about polls like this. But over the past day or so this particular one has struck a nerve with me and I was wondering if you could please hear me out. I’m a bisexual man, and this is something I wouldn’t have been able to declare this easily even a couple of years ago, and a huge part of helping me reach this place has been seeing myself depicted onscreen. And it hasn’t been until very recently that I realized how much Victor and Yuuri have meant to me.

Now, I can already here some of you saying to yourselves “Well Andy that’s fine and good, but I don’t care about YOI and Klance means a lot to me” and I’m not invalidating that. Hell, I like Klance. But at the end of the day the casual viewer isn’t gonna watch the show as see Keith and Lance as mlm characters, but every viewer of YOI will see Victor and Yuri as mlm characters in some level of an intense relationship with one another. And if we really value representation as much as we say we do, shouldn’t we reward shows that come through for us? Elevating canon LGBTQ characters and relationships tells media creators that this is what we want to see in the media we consume.

Now, some of you may say, why does it even matter? It’s just a dumb fan poll and god Andrew you need to stop taking it so seriously it’s just shipping. And hey, on some level you’re right. But please keep in mind that that Klance, a non-canon relationship, winning this tournament over canon mlm and wlw from not only Yuri On Ice, but Sense8 and several others as well, you’re sending a different type of message to media creators as well. And that message is that subtext is good enough, and they don’t need to put forth the effort to portray canon gay relationships in canon because fans won’t care either way. Don’t believe me? Back during season 2 of Teen Wolf, the show’s social media team openly used fans of the popular, non-canon ship Sterek to win fan polls just like this one and generate publicity for the show. The show went so far as to have the two actors who play the characters film a queerbaity video together asking fans to vote for the show to win a Teen Choice Award (which it did). All the while the production team of the show strung along fans with the idea that if they were loud enough the subtext might become main text. Spoiler alert: It didn’t. In fact, the next season saw the two characters share little screen time before one of them was written off the show entirely. And the show, now very popular, made an active effort to market toward casual straight teen fans and away from the demos that helped them win all those polls.

Now am I suggesting the Teen Wolf situation and the Voltron situation are the same? Absolutely not. For one thing, Voltron staff have never baited fans with the possibility that Klance might become canon, and have never used Klance fans as a vehicle for marketing the show. What the Teen Wolf situation is, however, is a real life example of how promoting the idea that fanon gay ships are “good enough” can have a negative impact on actual LGBTQ fans, and LGBTQ rep in general.

TL;DR Please support canon LGBTQ representation in media when you get chances like this. Klance winning this poll isn’t gonna send the message that “Fans want it so it should be canon” - it’ll send the message that “Fanon is good enough, and there isn’t a need to have canon LGBTQ rep because fans will be just as happy either way.”

Hey so like maybe let’s fix this before I spontaneously combust

VOTE FOR THE ACTUAL CANON GAY COUPLE PLEASE

[sinkingorswimming]

Yo for real, if you want acual good canon queer rep…Vote Victuuri.

[otabekwasrobbed]

My bros, I am all for ship and let ship, but we need to kick this into high gear for YOI. I love Voltron as much as the next guy, but I’d much rather see a healthy and canon queer couple win this.

[mud-muffin]

Just us

MAPPA just showed artwork at their VAX Malaysia panel featuring Noriko Itou, Tadashi Hiramatsu, and Manabu Otsuka of Victuuri of the rings and it looks like there is a little detail we didn’t know about. The inside of the rings features a snowflake engraving! Each ring only has a half of the snowflake though, so of course, in order to get the full one, you have to have the pair. 

‘They’re a pair’ takes on a whole new meaning. Wow. This is absolutely lovely. ♥  ( twitter source )

Also that picture of Victor and Yuuri looks like an engagement announcement they’d post on social media. Sweetest boys!!
