The beginning and the ending.

This story is already full of everything I need.

Also the cancellation tweet by the official Yoi account has got 7.2 million views within a day and the Yuri on ice hashtag is trending on twitter. Victor’s va Junichi suwabe retweeted it saying how sad he was that the movie wasn’t coming out. I hope mappa sees this and are fully aware of how much this means to people and what a fumble this was

history

[blackfeatherdragon]

I'm pretty sure someone else said it but you really did have to be there when Yuri on Ice aired in 2016. Tumblr was going nuts for this show. I'm pretty sure we broke Tumblr and Crunchyroll from the sheer force of fans trying to see and talk about the finale.

Not to mention that it was 2016, and canon queer characters were incredibly few and far between. It was a recipe for a massive fandom.

(Yeah, there were people who insisted up and down that Yuri and Victor never canonically kissed on the ice because they didn't make on screen lip contact, which was incredibly stupid logic. There was definite homophobia going on regarding if it was Canon Queer or queerbaiting/'fujoshi bait'. But it was so important for people who, perhaps, never thought they'd get anything close to canon queer characters, or at least not in a show like Yuri on Ice.)

Anyway, RIP Ice Adolescence. We'll always hold this series in our hearts.
