This Trailer Just Hit Me

this trailer just hit me

I predict it will come out sometime near the Winter Olympics. Interest in figure skating will be near its highest, and I think MAPPA wants to make sure it has a theatre release date to maximize profits (which is hopefully possible if COVID dies down.) Or maybe I’m just desperate for more YOI I say this to myself to stay sane.

we're gonna get more yoi news this year, i can feel it

‘Bloom, crimson lotus’

One life to live together

I definitely agree with u about Yuuri’s old programs just lacking something. The fact that its implied that he’s never really been apart of the creative process when making his programs makes me think that his skates are extremely musical/artistic, but not entirely his. I also feel like he would lack consistency and just rarely ever have a clean program.

Altogether, I feel like his situation was one where everyone saw the potential powerhouse he could become with his quads/spins/step sequences/musicality, but is just held back by poor packaging and a lack of personal touch to his skating. I really hope we can see past Yuuri’s programs sometime so we could see how much he grows with viktor

As for Viktor, I totally see his past programs as performances rather then an expression of himself. I picture that when he makes his comeback to skating after meeting Yuuri he choses a more quiet/soft classical piece that expresses his own emotions (something like Salut d’Amour perhaps), and has a more simple costume than usual, and it’s surprising for people to see just how expressive he is without all the trademark Nikiforov theatrics in his programs

If yall have any thoughts on programs Yuuri or Viktor skated too PLEASE send them my way, imagining Yuuri and Viktor’s past programs gives me so much serotonin

Pillow forts and Chitchats!!! I’ll have them as prints for Blushcon next weekend! <3
