i'll keep this short and sweet. I hope the subject matter is treated with respect. I have notice a trend with most sports anime where the main character is male. It is either a DBZ wannabe or softcore gay porn. I hope this show can actually be about the sport and the characters and not degrade it to cater to those audiences.

I did....and dude most people male figure skaters are gay when they're not...and if you have watched guys go at it. It looks gay...but just because of that it can be solid.

have you ever seen softcore gay porn...anything softcore is built around teases not direct fanservice shots.

f ing gay as hell but on the plus side it actually has a plot and it's funny. I thought to watch 1 ep and then make fun of it but it's actually decent. Helps to go in with low expectations.

OMG !!! I'm sooooo glad that there are people who matters about the main subject and not only about the huge fanservice we can obviously notice in the anime.
I saw people saying about the trailer, and that was obvious that would be gay stuff on it but HELLO! Yaoi isn't in the genres of the anime. If it was, okay. But, no! It's about sports,it's about ice skating and not only about that yaoi fanservice thing y_y
I'm only watching because I liked the theme. If it gets too yaoi, I'll probably stop because I'm done with this type of anime. So keep worring about the way they will work out the subjet. I'm with you. Thank God I found someone with the same opinion. Ignore the others --'

The anime industry doesn't know what respect is so it's probably gonna be another Free.
Plus queer-baiting is what keeps the money flowing.

I'm watching it for many reasons. Love it or hate it, Yuri on Ice is turning out to be one of the best series this season(and perhaps of the year).

I adore the boys so much already but I also adore watching them skate. And yes, I adore the fanservice, too. But can you blame me?? xDD

I'm really excited to see where this series goes. <3

Nothing against fanservice. I'll check it out. I don't know about the best this season maybe best new show since there is a lot of sequels. I just seen Heybot(awful), Keijo(really fucking awful), and Show by Rock #(fucking good).

I'll give this and All Out a look when I get a chance. I wanted the fall to build up first as I finish summer.

For this season I'm watching Yuri on Ice(lmao obviously), Bungou Stray Dogs season 2(it's good so far), Trickster(behind though ;w; ) and Touken Ranbu Hanamaru(sooo good but also behind oops)

While Bungou Stray Dogs is my fave anime for this year, I have to hand it to Yuri on Ice for having full potential of being the best series this year. It's doing an amazing job so far, lets just hope it keeps it up. ;n;

it is queerbait although the fanservice is some next level shit and its really pushing it limits for mild gay porn, it won't turn out as yaoi or shounen ai, Free did the exact same thing and here we are 3 seasons later, it keeps the money coming.

The only show I have seriously watched like this was Black Butler....and I gotta say I think they are the best at it isn't overly gay like the others.

With all due respect, I do not understand where this idea of softcore porn, gay or otherwise, comes from. Sports where sweaty men/boys are sometomes shown without shirts? Anime without panty shots? Good-looking characters? Ok, Yuri on Ice had some fanservice moments and everyone is really pretty, but that does not make it porn nor Free, where the fanservice (for the female audience more than the male/gay audience I guess) was rather over the top. But it's still not porn in any way, and there is not even the tiniest bit of shounen ai or yaoi in either Free or any of the other sports anime with mostly guys. If you've watched shounen ai and yaoi anime you would know the difference. And subtext, gosh, don't get me started on that. Subtext is in the eye (and brain) of the beholder. I'm all for discussing subtext, but in the end it's mainly something that exists in your own fantasy.

Fair enough. Softcore means it is just lime. I'm not saying we're going to twerking or anything crazy.

Thing is I got nothing against gay people but I do have a problem you taking a sport and making it overly gay for no reason. I mean you could do all this without having to butcher a sport. Now I'm not saying Yuri on Ice is doing this. I am just speaking in general Black Butler is one of the best examples of how to do this right.

but you have a problem with the gay subtext when you made a thread about it saying it's not being "respectful". it's not really out of left field considering victor's character, he's a huge flirt and doesn't seem to have much boundaries.

Okay are you trying to put words in my mouth? I said I am hoping it treats the subject matter with respect. I don't have a problem with gay subtext if I did I wouldn't like Strawberry Panic or Black Butler. I just don't like it when anime just try to shove it into my face.

So it's just in our own fantasy then? :( good for you, sad for me...
I mean, should we just forget all this stuff about queer baiting and fan service and softcore porn... ain't simple romance will do? nobody could mind romance, right. And remember the only gayness in this show only centers around the two main characters. At this point I believe the producer can make the two fall in love for real and even viewers who never view yaoi before could accept. I mean, it all seems natural.
Or again, it's just my fantasy T.T
