What if they made it a pair skate?
YOI didn't just give us actual queer rep in mainstream anime, great unique story, amazing animation and beautiful tracks. It also gave us some rare realistic representation of an anxiety disorder with Yuuri. That it can't just be loved away, that it returns in the most inopportune times, that it makes you irrational and blind to what's in front of you. And to people that didn't see the show, this isn't some fanon interpretation, it's pretty damn clear cut. If you haven't seen YOI, you definitely should give it a chance. The cancelled movie actually doesn't take away from the show at all since it was going to be a prequel and the anime ended in a pretty satisfying note, no cliffhanger or anything.
“Gazing up at the cherry tree, Yuuri was radiant in violet robes and a golden-yellow sash as he stood in a swirl of pink blossoms. Viktor wished he had a camera then; to preserve Yuuri’s unassuming beauty and keep it with him: under his jacket, close to his heart.”
(Zanka - Chapter 8)

I’m still obsessing over Zanka by the wonderful @dreaming-fireflies, so instead of working on deadline things, my brain wanted to doodle Yuuri/Aoyagi from her fic instead. 8D
Amazingly, the Japanese font I used here was written by “Aoyagi Kouzan” - it was meant to be!
mwuahh!! (˶꒡з꒡( ˵•́ ‿ •̀˵♡)✧˖° ♡
Hello, I am back from the dead to bring you this extremely important image. Mans is not okay
Inspiration:
i drew an au while waiting to board a flight a couple of months ago where yurio is the coach victor is the rival and yuuri just wants victor to notice him and i kind of revived it on twitter because i was bored
i know captions dont load for everyone so yurio in this au is 26, victor is 18, and yuuri is 17, victor held off from leaving juniors for a year because of an injury but now hes back and after yurios titles, yurio takes yuuri as a student because if he HAS to lose his records its not gonna be to victor fucking nikiforov he is THAT petty what an Icon
when you're crying about the cancellation but remember how good YOI was to you
though the movie might be cancelled, yuri on ice will live forever in our hearts. thank you yoi fandom, it's been real ♡
Different sports, but Rebeca Andrade not being able to read the scores without her glasses is so very Yuri on ice of her
Hi, I'm mae! I made this after re-watching the anime and crying over the movie and falling in love with reiya's rivals fic
