Sometimes I Think About Them And The Fact That 8 Years Have Passed And That Now They Are 26 And 23 Yo

I would love to see that spy au of your au ;)

(this is from this post yes??)

#……#inspo#tmfu au#??#an au of our au#oh myg oodness#picture: vitya as the spy#yuuri as the quote unquote normal person#yuuri is just honestly thrilled that this cute boy wants to socialize with him#meanwhile vitya#is like !!!!!! yakov u didnt tell me my contact was HOT#yakov: i… i gave the intel assignment to alexei……… vitya he his twice your age….. vitya what..

we are currently having technical difficulties but look at these hilarious msgs that @thecookiemonster77 sent me

OKAY SO:

Yuuri is at his favorite cafe

he just finished teaching his last class of the semester 

its a study of how pop culture influences and portrays political issues, with a special focus on the cold war and red scare propaganda 

its his favorite class to teach

in walks: Viktor Nikiforov, world renowned secret agent, so beautiful he’s been blessed by Aphrodite herself, ready to get in & get the intel & get out again, quote unquote heartbreaker of the international espionage community

(he’s actually a massive dork but shhh yuuri doesnt know that yet. he doesnt know anything yet, except that this world-shatteringly cute guy just stormed in through the cafe doors and––

–– and he’s making a beeline for Yuuri?

“Illya,” Viktor says very seriously, “we have a situation here that needs your special talents. Are you free?”

“No man is free who works for a living. But, I’m available,” Yuuri replies automatically.

they both stare for a second

Yuuri, because holy shit this hot guy just marched up to him and quoted the man from UNCLE, yuuri’s favorite TV show???

Viktor, because holy shit his intel officer is cute

they spend the next three hours together, during which neither of them figure out that they’re having two different conversations

and yeah, sometimes viktor says something weird, but he’s also very cute and he blushes a lot whenever yuuri laughs, which. is very endearing. 

they agree to meet at the same place tomorrow because viktor has somehow never heard of From Russia With Love and so Yuuri needs to lend him his own copy

(its a digitally remastered dvd and it came with a collectors tin and a poster. phichit got it for him for his last birthday)

yakov doesnt understand why alexei calls him screaming about how vitya never showed up.

“What do you mean? He says the meeting went fine. He also seemed…. rather…taken with you. Um.”

Thank you for the amazing update! I'm curious; while you gave us a good idea of what drunk Yuuri was yelling about at the party with the 'you' and the observation that it sounded like a series of insults, did you have in mind exactly what Yuuri was saying? Or just the general gist since nobody in the fic knows (and will never find out anyway)?

Lol will Yuuri’s yelling in Japanese forever remain a mystery?? ;)

Are we ever going to know what yuuri said when he was drunk?

———-

I wont write it out exactly but the general gist of it was:

Yuuri’s face contorted in an instant, eyes narrowing and mouth twisting into an almost snarl as he called something sharp and harsh in an unfamiliar language across the room, eyes still looking directly at Viktor. Despite not understanding a single one of the few words that Yuuri had just said, from the tone and his accusatory pointing finger Viktor was pretty sure that the words would translate into something very similar to a version of ‘you’ that was very far from polite.

This is pretty much exactly what it looks like, Yuuri is pointing at Viktor and saying something along the lines of ‘you! Hey, you’ in a rude way.

“Ignoring his hesitant words of greeting Yuuri snapped out another tumbled string of syllables in the same foreign language as his first.”

Here Yuuri is telling a brief summary of why he hates Viktor, something along the lines of ‘yeah, you! you called me fat and didn’t think I could be a skater. How do you like me now asshole?’ 

At Viktor’s lack of response Yuuri yelled something else that sounded suspiciously like a series of insults

Again, this is exactly what it looks like. Viktor isn’t responding so drunk!Yuuri is just generally insulting him like ‘you’re so arrogant and I hate you’ etc

Viktor turned back to Yuuri who was still slumped in his arms, glaring up at Viktor, mumbling something in Japanese and poking Viktor sharply in the chest

Here Yuuri’s kind of mellowed out slightly because he’s yelled most of the actual insults his drunk mind can think of so now he’s saying more along the lines of ‘I hate you and your stupid skating and your pretty face’

After some manoeuvring he managed to get Yuuri back on his feet again but the other man ended up clinging to his shoulder, half draped over Viktor as he continued to drunkenly rant at the man he had plastered himself too, feet too unsteady to stand on his own.

“Here Yuuri is ranting about his feelings basically. Something along the lines of ‘I hate how you always beat me and now I beat you and you didn’t even stick around to see it and it’s not fair, why did you just leave?’

Yuuri mumbled something else that was definitely not in English and finally stopped ranting, resting his head on Viktor’s shoulder with a yawn and sounding considerably less angry than he had a few seconds before.

But at least you’re here now

Every now and again he tossed another couple of words at Viktor but they sounded as though they had much less bite to them as before.

‘I still hate you, you know.’ etc but much less mean and more of an afterthought

Instead he simply wound his arms around Viktor’s neck and buried his face into his shoulder, muttering something else that Viktor couldn’t quite make out.

This is where he started to get into sappy territory, when Viktor picked him up. Something like ‘you feel really nice’

And then obviously he finally starts talking in English

⛸️⛸️Poll Winner - Yuri!!! On Ice 💜💙

Yuri on Ice won overall! I did hear some compelling arguments for the other couples so there’s a good chance we’ll circle back to these canon gay couples. I wanted to express my pride this year with fanart depicting healthy gay relationships. 🏳️‍🌈

💭RKP Thots: Ah, what can I say about Yuri on Ice, other than it found a special place in my heart quickly. Growing up a little queer kid who was into football, skateboarding and grunge music but also iceskating, classical and boybands; I fell in love with Yuri on Ice as an adult, it was the prefect sports anime. 🥹

happy valentines day!!

⚡️ Crossover ⚡️

Viktor Nikiforov — As Leon S. Kennedy in Resident Evil 2 — simping on Yuuri, even in a zombie outbreak❤️‍🔥

Celebrating September 28th, the Anniversary of the Raccoon City incident ✨🧟‍♀️

In memory of what could have been.

Important screenshots from Yuri on ice, i would be overjoyed if people added their own important screenshots in rbs

Lost in Translation on Ice - Translation Mistakes in Episodes 1-6

Hi! I’m that person who wrote that post with the lost-in-translation innuendo from episode 6. After that, some people said they want to know about the rest of the ‘lost in translation stuff’ from the rest of the episodes……so, hey, I’m crazy, so I went and did it.

This post aims to collect and explain as many translation errors, emphasis changes and things that just can’t make it through the language barrier as possible from the Yuri on Ice official subs, through episodes 1-6.

I want to preface this by saying that I have the utmost respect for Crunchyroll translators. Theirs is a tough job : parsing everything by ear, running on tight deadlines, having no context for future episodes and needing to make sure everything sounds like a real conversation. It’s hard, and I don’t envy them their jobs.

But even the best translators could make mistakes.

Let’s get started, shall we? Episode 1’s going to be a little dry, but rest assured that there are some juicy, tasty stuff down the line in further episodes! This is also going to be very long, so please bear with me. A short count of issues :

Episode 1 - 17 issues Episode 2 - 15 issues Episode 3 - 9 issues Episode 4 - 23 issues Episode 5 - 26 issues (!!!!!)<– this one is important Episode 6 - 20 issues  (This is going for maximum accuracy, so there will be some splitting hair and some throwing conversational flow to the winds when it becomes necessary.)

Episode 1

The subs translated this line into present perfect tense, but it’s actually in the past perfect tense. Correct version : Ever since I first saw his skating, it had been an unending chain of surprises.

You know, in case we don’t have enough ‘describe Victor in the past tense’ things to freak out about!

The subs missed a word here, simplified the sentence and removed the tiny personal touch of the announcer to make it more like English language sports commentary. The announcer also described Victor’s skating, not just the state of his competition. The original line is 「いや、フリーも驚異な強さで圧倒しました！」(いや means 'no’, but in cases like this it’s often used to show awe at something you half-expect anyway.) When you add the missing bits back in, the line would be like : I’ll be damned, he also crushed the FS with a miraculously strong performance!

'Seems to lay such rumors to rest’ is a rather mild way to put what the announcer is saying. He sounds quite excited in the Japanese commentary, but that’s not how English sports commentary works, so….anyway, the original line is 「そんな噂を吹き飛ばすかのような圧巻の滑りでした」, which would make the whole sentence ’Some speculated that he might retire this season, but that was a masterful performance to blow any such rumors out of the water!’

The actual meaning doesn’t change much, but the emphasis has been shifted quite a ways.
