Elika said: I'm still cracking up over the fact that YUURI was the playboy in the Eros story all along. Yuuri is the one that came into Victor’s life, seduced him for a night, and left him behind, smitten and forgotten, leaving Victor with only memories and photos. All that time with Yuuri being like “I can’t play this role,” and Victor’s sitting there like “uh hell yeah you can”, and now we know for certain why he was sure of that. Yes and yes. Loved this episode. It was great to get into Victor's head a bit wish we had a little more of that. OMG the party. I have no words. It changes everything. Think I might have to go rewatch the series now. But why did no one post the part pictures on instagram? They've posted nearly everything else. |

| Them credits tho, amiright? This is definitely one of my favorite episodes so far, so cute! Victor looked so shocked when Yuri got those rings for the two of them, his expression was my favoite part of the entire episode. |

DoragonessU said: I can't believe that actually happened?!?! I'm literally in tears right now! Can we safely say that this Yuri on Ice has finally broken past barriers that not many dared to venture? I'm still in shock about the 'round and golden' part! Kubo and Sayo, you really didn't disappoint! Also, the new ED is hilarious. They really don't give a damn anymore. lmao!! nothing what you said makes sense cause im pretty sure Boku no Pico broke barriers when Yaoi On Snow was even thought of |

Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| This anime is just the best! xDD Victor and Yuuri are officially engaged! JK lol but I love the ending of Yuri's drunken state. |
| I still cannot convey what the LITERAL FUCK I never, NEVER EXPECTED THIS FROM ANIME. This is great, man. |

sooyong said: Did I watch a backwards video or something? Because I saw them put rings on each other's RIGHT hands, not left. Engagement/wedding rings go on the left hand. I really think this was a trolling of sorts. I don't doubt that Victor and Yuuri are close, and I enjoyed seeing them make intimate gestures towards each other, but I thought the scene with the rings and the church bells was just too much. Enjoy the "engagement" but I think it was just another step of fanservice and people are really taking the bait. It's right hand in Russia. e.g. - http://www.pictaram.com/media/1184680065334732059_2938369312 |

| Oh my god, this show just went all the way. BEST EPISODE HANDS DOWN. |
| OMG best episode ever! Now I can die happy. Hahah I loved the ending where we see Yuris dance moves xD. |
| "In this world, evil can arise from the best of intentions. And there is good which can come from evil intentions" |
| KILL ME. KILL ME. I'M TOO HAPPY FOR SO MANY REASON. VICTOR'S PoV, RINGS, OTABEK, FABULOUS DANCING SHOTS, THE REASON VICTOR BECAME YUURI'S COACH REVEALED. I WAS WORRIED ABOUT THE ENDING OF THIS SERIES BEFORE, BUT NOW NOT ANYMORE. HOW CAN SUCH SILLINESS MAKE THIS SERIES BECOME EVEN BETTER. I DIED LAUGHING EVER SINCE THEY WEAR THE RINGS LMAO ROFL LMAO. |
Mula said: The ED reminds me of The Hangover movies hehehehe XD OK Victuri is canon, bye Felipe!   engagement goals af :3  YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! Me throughout this episode:   |
| The episode was a little off-key in mood here and there, but I guess with this I'm much more convinced they're official as a couple. Sexual or platonic love, I lean towards the latter. They met at the banquet though? Guess Victor lost that dance battle lol. I fking love Phichit. Just sayin', this damn selfie-taking cutie. |
| ...words...cannot explain how...happy I am. And omg that ending. Yuri be wild when drunk! Did not expect that at all xD He's adorable!!! HOLD UP THO IF YURI DOESN'T WIN (KNOCK ON WOOD KNOCK ON WOOD) WILL THERE BE NO WEDDING?????? And awww JJ is super annoying (which we love) but the way they ditched him when he interjected xD Poor guy. "I WAS ONLY JOKING!!!!" JJ you rock. I honestly wouldn't have minded that much if you won...until I realized how much greater the ending will be with Yuri winning. Please win Yuri! WIN DAMNIT! |
| HOW do they manage to out do themselves EVERY WEEK!!! This episode had me dying. I watched the new closing credits so many times before giving up and stalking my twitter feed so I could have somebody to talk to about this episode. I'm terrified that Yuri is going to lose the GPF, but they'll try to pass it off as okay because he found love. I want him to win so bad, but so many sports animes make our main character/team lose the first season. I know this show is already atypical, but STILL. I don't want him to come in second or third or straight up lose. I want him to win it all. I want him to break Victor's records. I want him to show the world how amazing he is. I don't want him to lose. The next two shows have me pulling my hair out already. |

| History status: Made. This anime is truly the highlight of the season as far as I'm concerned. |
heyimaudrey said: So, like.... can the "Is Yuri on Ice actually gay or just queerbait?" poll be closed now? Thanks. I thought that poll would be closed after the kiss |
| I tell you guys, that's a friendship ring. Fujoshi reaction are so hillarious. It's not canon, no matter what the creator said. |

| Even with the amount of good things that happened, the first scene in the hotel room with their beds pushed together was my favorite one. So simple, and still able to convey so much. I'm glad that YOI is being brave enough to write such an important story, and I hope it marks the beginning of a more progressive time (in anime, I mean). On another note, I really wish for Yuuri to be able to win. I know in reality it's not that easy, and that there are so much that could be learned from failure, also, but right now I need a gold medal to end this show with the most amount of satisfaction possible. The only thing I didn't completely like was the amount of lewd in the ED, BUT it did indeed advance the plot and explained a lot about the characters' behavior and interactions since episode 01, which was pretty cool too. |
 (THIS WAY FOREVER) |
| Okay, I've been a skeptic all the way through this but it's really happening! I still don't think they'll show much but I am hoping for a well-framed kiss. Major props, Yuri on Ice! You boldly went where no one has gone before! |
| Welp, time to pack it up, lads. I joked it was rings. I didn't think this would be real. They're engaged too just. Thank-you, Kubo. Helenus said: Ok, again I have to be that one person in this thread: there were no romantic feelings involved in this episode. Not at all. Kudos to the director to be a master of teasing. But no. Just no. This episode was the perfect example to show how they play everything 'romantic' as a joke. Just look how the whole tone changes when they bring the marriage thing up. Even in-universe they don't take it seriously. No gay-marriage, sorry. I totally doubt that there's love involved between Yuri and Victor. The ring is a token of appreciation. The narration made it clear. Nonetheless it was an interesting episode. I really like Otabek. And the Yuri Plisetsky fangirls are quite an accurate representation of the YOI fandom. 9/10. P.S.: I'm convinced Chris is gay. 100%. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. This can't be real rn. Just delete your account already, you said you would. Get outta this denial stage already. You should be at the acceptance stage by now. |
“Victor can’t be satisfied by anyone but me.”  |
| The ED was really, super informative considering it was technically about Yuri getting shitfaced. Actually, this entire episode being from Victor's POV tied into it, because if you saw things through Yuri's POV at the beginning he didn't even seem to think Victor knew he existed. But now we know that Victor CLEARLY knew who he was AND had an interest in him for a long time. Yuri thought Victor zoomed in out of nowhere, but he was probably just waiting for the right time. I guess Victor can remember some of the promises he makes :P PS. I have seen so many people joke about rings that I can't believe one of you don't have Insider Info. Spill the beans. |
| Ah, something else that I forgot. Viktor looked really sad at the end of the episode (in the beach scene), I wonder what that's about... |
(THIS WAY FOREVER) |
| I can't believe I can say I was there when the actual gay sports anime was made Ironically, the episode ended with the most mainly shots ever and then the new ending came, and wow what a blast this anime exists to make up for the shitty year that was 2016 |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
| only 2 episodes left and we still don't know much about Viktor....the only hint we got was that he didn't really focus on love or living outside of skating for over 20 years. and yay they mentioned how we don't really celebrate Christmas in Russia, so it doesn't really matter that his bday is on Christmas Day. eh a few awkward obvious fanservice animations...they could have done without them. and lmao Yuri's Angels are a pretty accurate representation of fans and oh my god they actually did the golden ring.....they keep surprising me. i really admire this show for breaking boundaries with each episode, i really hope they inspire some other shows to be more open-minded as well. haha Phichit is their biggest supporter, so cute i can't believe they're actually getting married, that was like my biggest unrealistic wish since the beginning but it's already happening. i said before that i was content with just one season but now i'm slowly starting to want a season 2...not sure what they would include in it but i want it but i'm so impressed with how much this anime got done with only 10 episodes so far....it feels so much longer. i really want Yuri to win but at the same time i doubt it'll happen. it's so heart breaking to see how much motivation everyone has, every single one of them (except Chris...perhaps) has some sort of big goal to achieve at the Finals (and omg they changed the ending with only 2 episodes left, pole dancing Yuri though. the REAL reason why Viktor became his coach LOL) (edit: oh i just realized that means Viktor has been interested in Yuri all along, which explains his very forward actions towards Yuri since the beginning. and looks like he thoughts Yuri remembered as well but he didn't this whole entire time. that means when Viktor watched the video of Yuri ice skating to his program, he thought he was interested as well. can't wait to rewatch this anime to see their meeting in a new perspective. OH that also explains why Viktor wanted Yuri to dance to Eros and was convinced he was able to do it) i also kinda wish they addressed the whole gay issue in Russia and Japan, but i can see why they didn't to not stir up some censorship laws and controversy. so ridiculous how they couldn't show them kissing but there's thousands of hentai of "lolis/shotas"/under age girls/boys and nothing is done about it |

| So did Victor fall in love with Yuri at the party? (Btw, Yuri as a stripper with Chris... my soul was not prepared) |

TheExplorer said: So did Victor fall in love with Yuri at the party? (Btw, Yuri as a stripper with Chris... my soul was not prepared) Yup! And Yuri doesn't remember being that eros scoundrel playboy who loves em and leaves em! But that is totally what he did! Remember when Yuri didn't think he was that kind of guy? Remember when Victor wanted to give him a picture in episode 1? holy crap. This is brilliant! Victor wanted to talk to him after the grand prix because <3 not pity! He had a great time and thought Yuri was a hoot. |

The anime community in a nutshell.  |
| Great episode. Some relaxation before the final. LOL that Instagram pic of Victor & Chris. Love Victor & Yuri's relationship. Their bond is growing stronger. WOW Pair Rings. Just get married already. HAHA Everyone ignores JJ. Nice ED Song. DAMN those Drunk Yuri pics were funny. Chris Pole Dancing was something. Grand Prix Final. Lets Go Yuri. |

Helenus said: I am relieved to see I am not the only one who noticed this. All the BL comments seem to exaggerate Victor and Yuri's relationship and feelings so much. Even after this episode I still view them as friends; there is no chemistry between them just like you said. Oh, and I am so happy you like Otabek. He is the first Kazakh anime character, I still cannot believe he already got such a decent amount of screen time. There is no chemistry you said?!!?? LMAO Are we even watching the same show?? |
