I thought Free was the gayest a sports anime could ever get. I was so wrong.

Viktor's personality reminds me of Tōru Oikawa from Haikyuu. I do love gloriously flamboyant shameless pretty boys. How many times will we see him naked before this anime is over? Place your bets now!

10/10 would drown in fan-service overload again.

The show is sitting on a 6/7 borderline for me at the moment. This was the strongest episode yet, however with the conflict between the two Yuris gone I fear I'll lose interest in future episodes.

YURI'S EROS IS SO SEXY! I think by now the VictorxYuuri thing must be canon! Even Yurio admits it after seeing that dance.

Don't know why but I really like the Russian Yuri. It's like he masks a really wounded heart inside his violent nature. Sucks to see him go.

Though it was no surprise that the Japanese Yuri won the competition. He's the MC after all. I expected something better from his search for his Eros. Considering he tries to show that he is 'better than women' his performance seems like a love confession to Victor. I don't find this aspect of the show necessary. A young iceskater who loses inspiration and lacks self-confidence one day has the opportunity to work with his idol and they create a genuine bond - that would be enough.

Anyway. I still do enjoy this show very much, it's reallu entertaining!

I don't get how they win or lose but very nicely done both of them.
Yuri is smexy alright.. every guy would fall for this trap. I keep forgetting he's 23 years old ?
Granpda vs Katsudon.. well of course katsudon wins. xD

I'm a straight male who had a girlfriend and this anime absolutely kills it. Definite AotS right here. Yurio is probably my favourite character so far.

It's totally gay as I expected, but I like it so far. The animation and music is really nice. Also Russian Yuri is best male tsundere.

The details and the animation is quite good, Yuri won the event and Victor will be his coach.

Anxiety aside, I love how Yuuri is comfortable enough with himself as a professional skater to willingly identify with the role of the 'most beautiful woman' rather than the 'playboy' in his interpretation of Victor's 'In Regards to Love: ~Eros~'.

The way this show approaches the concept of gender roles is so refreshing. It doesn't like to box itself into a corner, but instead, allows its characters express themselves as freely as possible. I mean, how often do you hear an internal monologue such as "It's enough to make even me, a man, pregnant Such eros!" coming from a male character?

The ambience of the Onsen on Ice scene is reliably drawn. The choice of lighting and attention to sound really makes it seem like an exhibition skating event.

"I am the most beautiful woman out there."

Just need to find out how to quote this every time so I can dodge the stupid 30-character limit.

The gayness in this show is making me cringe so hard. I like the sports aspect of this show but I don't know if I'm gonna stand the cringeworthy gay romance in it. And I heard it only goes worse from here.

Enough pork cutlet bowl, as if it doesn’t sound embarrassing enough.

Young Victor with long hair is so badass and hot!

Dat nose blood. Chill out, Yuuko. But I agree that Yurio looks so beautiful in that see-through costume with those kirakira decorations.

O shiet, definitely didn't think that Yuuri would go and grasp his own feminine side :o Suited him perfectly!

Although it is a bit hard to believe that he won against Yurio, who made no mistakes at all, just with his charm... Welp, it's not like I know a thing about real life skating, it just somehow looks a bit unbelievable.

Interesting to see Yuri win over Yurio though. I kinda liked Yurio's performance more.

I think some people have a hard time distinguishing between BL/yaoi & a legit narrative with romance subplot. Sure Yuri obviously has a huge crush on Victor, but Victor was trying to get him to channel his “eros” or so they put it. I don’t think he thinks of Yuri that way. At least not YET. I know they
but seriously at this point I still don’t see any of it as bait. I must be the only one who feels this way.

I don’t see why Yuri won tho. Personally preferred Yurio’s performance! It was beautiful with how he was thinking of his unconditional love for his grandpa.







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

Feels bad for Yurio.

But nice episode and a beautiful performance. Looking forward to see Yuri and Victory taking on this challenge.

I watch lots of action anime. Infact I think this is the first ever I'm watching without proper action and I love it. I fell a certain comfort when watching this, I don't know how else to describe it.
