I bingewatched it through the weekend as well. I'm a little more obsessed than I thought I would be.

Evgenia's Twitter is filled with YOI:

Her fish are named Yuri and Victor and someone even made fanart of them as the characters

Johnny Weir skated to Yurio's Agape and posted it on Instagram.

Tbh, I absolutely despise this anime and its rabid fandom, but for the love of god, how is it possible that no skater has done an actual exhibition to its soundtrack?

The first one to exploit this is going to make history (haha punny) and gain a crapload of fans. Just look at how much Evgenia's stock increased in Japan almost overnight (I mean, that she's double World Champ and invincible also helps but still) from that one Sailor Moon Ex.

I thought Johnny will be the first..

If the people running Stars On Ice were smart they would incorporate some YOI elements into next year's show.

 

[Matilda]

I thought Johnny will be the first..

Johnny didn't do an exhibition though--he just posted practice videos to Agape and Eros, just like he frequently posts practice videos to music he likes to skate to in practice. he obviously does like YOI a lot though His 3A is still beautiful.

I'm not an anime fan so I only have a passing familiarity with YOI, but I certainly like the second clip! Johnny is skating beautifully.

It must be Evgenia, nobody deserves it more. She is a real fan.

Let's not call an entire fandom names because of the bad behaviour of individuals, though. I've seen some absolutely vile behaviour amongst some figure skating 'fans' and I don't think we would all want to be judged by that

Most figure skating fans are nice and enthusiastic about their hobby, and so are Yuri!!! on Ice fans

I agree with you about this doing a Yuri!!! on Ice exhibition would be a great way to gain fans. Evgenia seems to have gained even more fans from the TV show she just did, dressed in her Sailor Moon costume. She sure understands the value of this.

 

[cathlen]

Well, I'm not the biggest fan of Evgenia, but I am a fan of Sailor Moon so she definitely gained some points doing EX to it I have really enjoyed it and I would not mind if she did EX to YoI too

 

[Tulipstar]

I think Kubo-sensei is going to be very happy.

Along with fans Evgenia and Johnny, Yuzuru Hanyu just posed with a Yuri!!! on Ice doll
