On episode 10 of Yuri on ice
Okay people, this episode was the best one of the whole anime so far (at least for me). Episode highlights: -Viktor narrating the beginning of the episode. - Fun in the pool with Chris = gorgeous bishie photo shoot. - Yurio in a Katsuki family photo ft. Russian son in law. - Yuri's angels, and Yurio being protective of them - Viktor calling Yuri a sleeping beauty. - Also says that staying at Yuri's was like being in heaven. - Pijama party ft. Yuri, Viktor and Chris - Yuri "let's have a date in Barcelona" Katsuki - Yurio literally scaping from his fans. It turns into an unexpected date in Parc Güell. - "Are you going to be my friend or not?" - Let's buy matching rings!!!! - Okay this anime is going to end in a big ass wedding, now I'm sure of it. - Fangirling over YurioXOtabek. - Everyone noticing the rings. - Pichit proclaming that Vikturi are fucking getting married. - Otabek joining in the applause, I swear that killed me. - JJ, my poor baby. Nobody listens you... - Yurio kicking Viktor. - Is Yurio jealous ... or what the fuck mas that? - Minami and triplets joining to fangirl over Yuri. - THE ENDING!!!! - Yuri dance off. - Pole dancing with Chris. - Dancing with future husband. - Be my coach Viktor!!!!!! - And you can literally see when Viktor falls for Yuri in that fucking instant. Okay, these are some that I needed to pint out but there's more. As someone born and raised in Barcelona I was looking forward to this chapter. I didn't thought they would show the city so much and I was kind of scared at the beginning because of the image they would show of the city. (I swear, if something to estereotipical appeared in this episode I wss going to get pissed). I mean, I love this city so fucking much. Honestly, I was ready for the worst. I love this anime, but I was afraid that they messed up just because a lack of research. But I have to tell everyone that they fucking nailed it!!!!!!! Not just the most famous buildings and places of the city (Sagrada Família, Casa Batlló, Plaça Espanya, Parc Güell, Passeig Marítim...), they also nailed every single detail Viktor and Yuri go to a fair, just before the thing with the rings, it's called Fira de Santa Llúcia and it's a square full of stalls that sell Christmas decorations, it's just in the city for December. Its just in front of the Catedral de Barcelona, where the rong scene happens. The Christmas lights on the streets they showed are the actual Christmas lights here. I could recognize in what street they were just for seeing the lights. Talking about reconizing, ths street were Yuri loses the bag, which is also the street were they have dinner, is Passeig the Gràcia. In this street there are two houses designed by the modernist architect Antoni Gaudí (it's just in front one of this houses that Yuri loses the bag), he also designed the street loghts and the patterns on the ground of the street, and I could recognize them!! If you see similarities between this house I told you and the park where Yurio and Otabek become bros you are not allucinating or anything, Gaudí also designed this park (Parc Güell), and he also designed Sagrada Família, of course. And, I know this is stupid but I'm also going to say it. The tables and chairs of the dinner restaurant are the tipical tables and chairs that bars and restaurant use to put in the exterior. They even nailed this details. Honestly, BEST EPISODE EVER!!! And sorry for the long post...
After episode 9
If this anime doesn't end with a big ass victuri wedding I'm going to kill somebody.

@thegirlwhorideslikeasamurai found a Facebook copy of the video of Patton Chen skating "On Love: Eros" that there's a dead link to in the below art post by @thehappysatan and I see no reason to make y'all visit Facebook when I could just reupload the video to Tumblr
Capa para a fanfic “A culpa é das estrelas” escrito por Bynario para a seção de Yuri on Ice.
Como devem ver, eu meio que me inspirei na capa de A culpa é das estrelas para a produção dessa capa, então quero muito agradecer ao João verde *cof cof John Green -qq* pelo livro que fez tanto sucesso e o famoso “okay? okay.” que marcou tanto minha adolescência UHSAUHSA
Se inspire! Não copie! Créditos aos Fanartistas ~

Okay but imagine Yuuri retires from professional figure skating at 27, and he decides to go back to college to become a teacher.
So this boy walks into class sporting the just-rolled-out-of-bed look with the sex hair and the big comfy sweater and the starbucks cup in one hand.
And you know, he’s enjoying his life, he makes friends in his program and on the weekends he helps his husband teach cute little kids how to skate and they have this cozy little house together in a nice neighbourhood. He probably has girls and guys falling for him left and right.
And then one day, Yuuri’s out with his friends, and they’re at a cafe or something.
And a group of girls comes up to them, and they’re all blushing and nudging each other saying “You talk first!”.
So Yuuri just turns this absolutely blinding smile on them and asks, “Autographs?”
The girls squeak, and nod furiously.
“Sure!” he says, reaching out for the notebooks they’re holding out for him to sign.
And about ten minutes later, after several selfies and autographs and a lot of gushing and squealing and “Please let Viktor know we’re looking forward to Yuratchka’s upcoming season,” the girls leave.
So Yuuri turns back to his friends, and they’re all just staring at him with wide eyes and gaping mouths.
Yuuri kinda wonders if there’s something on his face.
The first thing that comes out of anyone’s mouths is, “…who’s Viktor?”
And Yuuri’s kinda confused as he replies, “….my husband?”
“YOU’RE MARRIED!?!?!?!?” his friends all shriek.
Yuuri looks down at his hand to make sure his ring is still there. “Yeah?” he says, holding his hand up.
“I thought that was just a fashion statement!” one of the girls exclaims.
“Why did they want your autograph though?” asks another of his friends, and Yuuri just looks away sheepishly.
“I’m…uh….a retired pro figure skater?” he asks, his voice going higher with embarrassment. “And I…uh…got 2 golds in the Grand Prix…and 2 golds in Worlds….and maybe a silver in Pyeongchang?”
His voice gets progressively quieter as his face gets even redder.
His friends are staring at him in horror and shocked disbelief now.
And he thinks he might as well get it all out now.
“And…my husband might be the most decorated athlete in figure skating history?”

My ipad was broken so i have to do some tradi art
Hello??? This is the best thing ever and I want it
3 parts standee i made for Victuuri and Victuri
Excellent analysis of Victor’s choice to go to Japan, yes his feelings for Yuuri played a part in it, but that was hardly the only reason; i love their relationship so much, but as individuals Victor and Yuuri are great characters as well
Viktor Nikiforov is an adult character with adult problems and anxieties. However, unlike for Yuuri, whose struggles couldn't be more obvious to the audience, Viktor's issues are portrayed with subtlety. Which is ironic since, of the entire cast, Viktor is confronted with the most drastic life-changing choices and changes.
We meet Viktor as a competitive figure skater who has reached a point in his life many people eventually end up. The initial excitement for your profession has long since withered away and you're stuck in a life that is making you miserable. You're only staying out of convenience, the fear of change, the fear of taking a risk, or due to a lack of opportunity—or a combination thereof.
That's where Viktor is in episode 1. You can read the misery in his fake smiles and in his empty expression when he skates—an activity that once has been his passion (we know because creating your own programmes demands a creativity that is the result of passion). There are rumours that he might retire, and when being asked about his future plans, we see again the empty expression of a man who has lost his purpose. He has accumulated quite a fortune through sponsorships if his expensive clothes are any indication of that, but money can't buy happiness.
For twenty years, Viktor has lived for his sport and neglected his private life over it. His body might keep up for a couple of more seasons, but his mind is weary and his creativity is running dry. Twenty years is a long enough time to make even a decisive person think that that one thing is all you will ever be good at.
When you're stuck like that, maybe even to the point that it affects your mental health, it's hard to make it out of the slump on your own. Having someone showing you an alternative can work wonders to shift your perspective and enable you to take matters into your own hands again. For Viktor, this shift comes in form of a cute and utterly drunk fellow skater who not only seems to have a crush on him but very explicitly voices his wish that Viktor becomes his coach.
Viktor is a master of his craft. He choreographs his own programmes, he has music composed for these, and he has twenty years of experience in figure skating. Before that fateful banquet, Viktor already showed low-level coaching tendencies like when he gives (unsolicited) advice to his younger rinkmate...
or when he encourages him to become junior world champion without a quad jump and agrees to choreograph his first senior programmes.
These examples indicate that Viktor has a hidden skill he might not have been aware of during his active career as a skater. He could build on that if the sets his mind to it.
While it's true that Viktor only decided to become a coach when he saw that video (see Sayo Yamamoto's episode commentary), his feelings for Yuuri played a major role his decision because he felt a connection. That's important because feelings ignite passion and provide you with new purpose. It's tempting to assume that Viktor went to Japan for a booty call, but this totally disregards the complexity of his situation and the key role feelings play in igniting passion in someone and giving them new purpose.
"People shine brightest when they understand what kind of love sustains them."
Turning your life upside down and leaving behind the safety and convenience of a job you're good at but that you learned to hate, comes with fears and requires a certain readiness to take risks. Many people don't go to such lengths unless 1) their current situation is insufferable and 2) they have a very strong motivator to start all over. Like love or passion. As both stem from the same place, I'm equating them in the following.
Taking your first step into the uncharted territory of your new future IS scary. It can be one of the hardest things you have ever done. Especially if it means a complete reorientation. But burning for this future—be it out of love for your new subject/field, a specific person you will work with etc.—is a truly inspiring experience that fills you with the confidence that you can actually do it. So far, Viktor has been on the receiving end of coaching, but his feelings for Yuuri, his experience as a skater, and his resulting dedication to the task ultimately turn him into a good coach for Yuuri and help him succeed where Celestino failed. And it's obvious that Viktor really loves being Yuuri's coach.
Viktor Nikiforov is a true inspiration for everyone who faces the choice of staying on in a life or work situation that is making them miserable or going full risk by following one's heart. I cannot thank Sayo Yamamoto and Mitsurou Kubo enough for creating a show with so many mature characters that are dealing with realistic adult issues and I'm happy that one of my favourite YOI characters is one of them. I wish that Viktor would receive more appreciation for this.
I want to thank the reader of Thousand Spotlights whose comment about my portrayal of Viktor inspired me to finally write this post 🩷 Also many thanks to @cecebeanie for reading over it in advance 🩷
Please note:
In some cultures, changing your job frequently is normal and thus not a big thing for people, but the concept I've discussed is the universal.
This meta doesn't attempt to be a comprehensive analysis of Viktor's situation as this would have gone beyond the cope of this post (I have written other metas that discuss some of these). Viktor shows signs of depression and/or creative burnout that might or might not have to do with focusing on skating for most of his life. Depression can manifest itself differently in different people and no one's experience is less valid than someone else's.
