| That ending left me all warm and fuzzy. Yuuri has come a long way. I remember how flustered he was when Victor offered to be his boyfriend at the beach. But now, when Victor reminds him that the words he just said sounded like a marriage proposal, he just takes a second to process then just smiles and hugs Victor... At that moment, they were more than just a skater and his coach. |

You liking a character doesn't mean you don't take ideas that have been ingrained in you since the dawn of time outside of fiction. I mean, hell, you even still apply them to fiction lmao. he? YoI is a fiction too, you know... (just in brackets, little one, i argued for hours with people who were against gay marriage) i know it's easier to call homophobic anyone with different opinion but you know... that's not truth. |

This right here shows you did not read what I typed out. i know it's easier to call homophobic anyone with different opinion but you know... that's not truth. And this here is you insinuating something I never stated. Interesting you jump to homophobia when I never called you that... Hrrmm... Wonder why? |
“Victor can’t be satisfied by anyone but me.”  |
| Very good episode. I love the OST at the end of the episode when Yuri met Victor at the airport. If anyone knows the name, please answer me. :) |

I don't think you understand me either, so it's 1:1, I guess. Let's stop it, okay? :) I laughed at the fans, it was mean from me. But calling someone 'butthurting' whatever wasn't nice either. I think. |

Yeah I'd say either is a pretty normal reaction. |

| K O R E G A J J D A JJ plis have mercy Again, another great episode. The feels are getting stronger too with Yuri barely making it to the Grand Prix. It's one of those moments when you know they'll advance for sure but you still get all emotional and relieved when you see the character's feelings afterwards. And his hugging everyone... stop being so cute ;; I'm just loving Yuri more now. Yurio's really fired up now, losing twice to that Canadian demigod over there. I hope Yurio at least scores higher than him next time. But even then he'll probably be pissed if Yuri beats him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Expecting great things at the Grand Prix for the love of jj |

| Yurio smiling, Yuuri & Victor running along the glass, Yuuri's "marriage" proposal.. |

| I thought they would put Viktor on a bus for longer than the episode. Clearly I was wrong. |

thirstyforlemon said: I can't believe Viktor and Yuuri are engaged god is real. Also the 'something round and golden' spoiler!! It could be a medal, yes, but the frames it goes with make me think otherwise ;) (Please tell me I'm not the only one seeing marriage proposal in this) I think a gold medal promise is more meaningful than a ring. A ring is so cliche. |

| For the one who are looking for a marriage... they will be in Spain for the Grand Prix Final in the last three episodes so... Btw, I don't want it! It just sound stupid so early in their relationship! But I don't mind a special/OVA for Valentine Day! I loved the hug and marriage proposal in Fukuoka airport! (and the lost luggages at the end!) So much love between them ^o^ It was the first time they were separated since more eight months (Victor arrived in Yuuri's home on March 11 (the dogga was posted on March 10) and we are now near Yuuri's birthday so just before November 29) I want to see not emotionless Victor dancing Hanarezuni soba ni ite for Yuuri! Like at the very beginning of the first episode. Of course, more Victor/Yuuri next week ^o^ Otabek/Yurio? O_o Hope for a romantic, cute and funny episode next week! ^o^ |

| i really enjoyed this episode, it seems like the skating animations are getting better and better. so sad that this is only 12 episodes, so much potential.... Yurio was absolutely beautiful, his hair was perfect. amazing program as well, very difficult. the hug rampage was hilarious, so glad Yuri made it to the Finals. yay the dog is alive! i did want to see the emotional sad side of Viktor but i guess not. very cute ending as well this episode felt different from others, there was more humor and it was a more serious tone i feel like "something gold and round" wow i was kinda hoping there would be some tiny hint of a proposal at the end but it looks like it's actually happening. i would have liked a 20+ episode anime so they could build up slower to it but i guess they have to move fast people should stop believing that this is purely queer bait already |

This scene was very beautiful ;_; The hugging scene was adorable! It was like Yuri was trying to see if hugging other skaters would feel the same as when he hugs Viktor XD Yurio's performance was really impressive :) and he and Yuri had a short moment of bonding! :) Oh, and the dog is okay! :) Finally, Viktor x Yuri moment at the airport was really "romantic" <3 |
| really dont care for the incest-y dynamic between michele and sala. it just makes michele look like a possessive asshole and some of the language choice (though it could just be the subbers idk) makes me feel skeevy e_e |
im apollo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ they/them pls  |
| Yurio is turning into a girl but amazing program nonetheless but fucking JJ man he stole the show again in the end Yuri went on a hugging spree |
 |
| Yurio's grandpa is a badass. Anastasis pun is great, especially paired with the description and one of the following phrases "superhuman feat." Speaking of those choujin, Yurio's outfit instantly reminded me of rogue Jiro from ConRevo. I wish Yakov and Yuuri got a longer conversation together. Was hoping for this episode to explore their previously nonexistent dynamic. Reaction shots, blurs during jumps, floatiness of the beginning of Yuuri's free skate, cutaways, and closeups still bothering me. Also the sound effects that they play when they cut to flashbacks have just started getting on my nerves. At the end of both Yurio's and Yuuri's free skates, they did some zoom ins (for both) and two quick cuts (for just Yuuri's). They didn't really have as much as an impact as they felt like they should have, and just seemed out of place. Also: when Yurio and Yuuri talk (mostly Yurio tho) near the end, Yuuri's voice has just as much volume and clarity as Yurio's, even though he's wearing a surgical mask. And: They repeated the animation of Yuuri taking off the surgical mask while running to Viktor. That was jarring, to say the least. That all being said, Yurio's performance was fucking amazing. Edit: Gif of that repeat. |

Demikuzunoha said: Frigyesur said: He asked him to be his coach until he'll retire. Everyone talks about 'proposal', lol. Fujoshis are really live in a different world :DD Never failed to make me laugh at this series :))) The best part will be the show when anything won't happen between them 'til the end ;))) That was a mistranslation. Yuri says 引退まで、ぼくのことをお願いします, which translates to something like "please take care of me until I retire". Then we have Victor saying how he wants Yuri to never retire. I don't think you can call this bait anymore. Don't feed the trolls. amayih said: For the one who are looking for a marriage... they will be in Spain for the Grand Prix Final in the last three episodes so... Btw, I don't want it! It just sound stupid so early in their relationship! But I don't mind a special/OVA for Valentine Day! To Japanese, Valentine's Day is simply a day the girls give chocolates to all men they know: family, co-workers, friends their crush, etc. It's not really a romantic holiday which involves people dating or something. The dating and romantic holiday in Japan is Christmas' Eve. You don't give presents to anyone except your lover or love interest. |

| Aww, that pork cutlet piroshki! Knew Grandpa would be making something like that. But the fact that Yurio gave Yuri some, and remembered his birthday - aww. Yurio's performance was fantastic, difficult technicality. But of course he loses to JJ lol. JJ's skating has the most difficult technique, and considering he used to lose to Victor too - that really shows how good Victor is. Glad to see Mickey growing more independent. A little sad for Seung Gil, poor thing. MACCACHIN IS FINE, HOORAY! Looks like next week is a break from competition, that's nice. Celebrating Christmas! And that preview is such a tease lol |
 |
| Can i just be happy to see Georgi again? lmao XD Yurio's FP is absolutely beautiful. He's so cute this ep, daring himself after getting support from grandpa, broke his record, cheering on Yuuri, running from Yuuri XD, and then chat up with him and roundabout way of saying Happy Birthday! Such a precious kid. It's funny how Yurio is only able to act friendly towards Yuuri when Victor isn't around. Yuuri has always felt that Victor is his only support on stage. To miss that during his program now, I've wondered how he would feel about that, and this show has answered it. When Yakov scolded him about not making full effort for the program Victor went out of his way to create for him, I guess he made up his mind then and there (to retire). Then he hugged Yakov and in his mind promised to give Victor back to him... That seriously made me sad. Then he went on a hugging spree LMAO. Hugging JJ and that Korean guy too! That was priceless XDDDD And then the airport scene. They are at the final's door now, Grand Prix Final, in which Victor promised to make Yuuri win, and finally, they both expressed what they will do after it ends. Despite how Victor joked about marriage proposal, Yuuri still ended up crying while hugging him. I think I need to rewatch later and listen to their conversation instead of reading subs. I'm not sure what to make out of this but it was a very touching scene, I legit almost cried. And I still have yet to see what is it that is in Victor's heart that motivated him to coach Yuuri. We know that he likes Yuuri's skating and that he was feeling like he's at the end of the line (can't surprise audience anymore or sth), but what is it really? I really want to see Victor's character development. Why couldn't we get some screen of Victor accompanying his doggie while watching Yuuri's performance? Someone on this thread mentioned that next ep might be rest ep based on the preview (and that lost luggage subtitle). I'm looking forward to it. This is only ep 9, I'm looking forward to more surprise element to stir up on both story and character development side. Couldn't care less about the incest. |
| I am emotionally unstable after the airport scene it was just beautiful and precious |
 |
Can we adress how stunning were Yurio's suit? And the braided ponytail *gasp* |
| Quién dijo que todo está perdido, yo vengo a ofrecer mi corazón... |
| I cried twice this episode. Also, Yurio's performance was godly and his outfit even moreso...he's had so much subtle character development that it jut puts a smile on my face :) |

| Don't worry Yuri Victor is with you in spirit. More wonderful performances. Mickey expressing his love for Sala. Congrats Yuri on making it to the Grand Prix Final. LOL that hugging frenzy. Sweet Victor & Yuri embrace. Glad the dog is O.K. |

Right? I imagined it was the real fire when I watched this ep. カッコイ!!! |
Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion. |
| Welp I finished it are it was pretty cute. It seems the idea that this is all just queerbait is slowly dying, but all the more reason not to hold out 100% of my hope in case something Fucked happens. Anyways I'm really enjoying yuuri's development and how hes become so much more open. This episode all around featured a lot of great character development and I'm Lovin It |
im apollo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ they/them pls |
| I wonder why they subbed it as 'please be my coach until I retire' xD when he actually didn't specify the coach bit which was why Victor said it sounded like a marriage proposal. It was actually something like "Please take care of me until I retire".. NOW THATS A PROPOSAL <33333333 THIS EPISODE WAS GODLY. YURIO'S SMILE when he was talking about his gramps was SO ADORABLE. his performance was amazing as well, and the way he nearly shouted out to encourage Yuri when he was skating was just.........he's come so far. I love him the beautiful boy. Yuri's skating was surprisingly not as bad as I thought it'd be with Victor gone, he didn't get as high as I'm sure all of us hoped but to be honest I kinda expected him flubbing nearly all his jumps (LOL oops) so this is really great! also the scene at the airport. The. End. Of. My. Heart. To the rest of people there saying it was too dramatic for them to start running towards each other in the airport... LOL. I don't think they'd do that in normal circumstances, but Victor left Yuri during his most crucial moment in the competition, and they were both mentally worn down, I'm sure you'd start running towards your loved one in that state of mind.... |
| It's implicit he means as coach because Victor was talking about it. It sounds like a marriage proposal because the "please stay take care of me/I'll be in your care" is usually what japanese people say when they start going steady as couple. |
| i think the opening secuence changed a little again? it has more paint slash and stuff than before. looked more vibrant than before i think? this is 3rd time they modified the OP |

Thess said: It's implicit he means as coach because Victor was talking about it. It sounds like a marriage proposal because the "please stay take care of me/I'll be in your care" is usually what japanese people say when they start going steady as couple. Yes I know he means as coach LOL XD I was just talking about how he never actually exactly said 'as coach' because if someone told me 'Please take care of me until I retire' while I was having a conversation about coaches and stuff I would still kinda stare at them and be like "You mean as a coach right?" XD Rather than if someone said "Please be my coach until I retire"... if you get my drift... (very bad at explaining things) Basically I was just talking about how there's still a degree of uncertainty in that vague wording which allowed Victor to process that it sounded like a marriage proposal. You know... -helpless hand gestures- Sorry I'm so bad at words LOL |
| Yuri had a serious hug complex afterwards lol |
| Another great epsiode. Yuri had some personal growth, and he shared a friendly moment with other Yuri. Oh yeah, and the Pacchan lives!!! |
Cetais said: Frigyesur said: I'm totally gay and Yuri's reaction is the exact same as the one I would have in this situation, after seeing my boyfriend.don't try to understand, it doesn't make sense. unless they the creators wanted to make it ridiculous :)) I am straight (as if it matters one way or the other-love is love in my opinion) and I have been like that with my boyfriend before. Plus you guys have to remember that Yuri has had one of the longest days ever without any of his emotional support people. None of the skaters there are his friends, his family is all back in Japan, and now even Victor is gone. His Free skate decides whether or not he makes it to the finals since only six get to go. He finds out he gets to go and there is no one there to celebrate with him. That's why he hugs everyone. He is trying to express his happiness at making it and no one's reaction is satisfying. He has all this emotion and no where to put it. It's like getting the best news ever and having no one to share it with. I thought the airport scene was lovely. I wish someone believed in me the way Victor believes in Yuri and that someone adored me as much as Yuri adores Victor. |
