Anonymous asked: (about yoi) they can't kiss on screen because of the rules of Japan. Second you gotta use context clues and facial expressions to see a more romantic side. Also Im not sure how far you are but in epidsode 9-10 there are VERY romantic moments, I think
Ok I’ve seen gay animes where they kiss so i know that’s not true but i guess it could be like a network thing?
And of course I’m not saying that it’s not romantic or not gay. Because obviously it is! But what makes me so crazy is that everyone I see talking about acts like this is the epitome of gay romance on tv. And I don’t judge people, especially fellow queer people from getting excited about it and I would never want to deny them that pleasure. But its frustrating to feel like I’m the only person who isn’t satisfied?
I’ve seen a number of posts talking about how GREAT it is that no one in yoi makes homophobic comments about victor & yuris relationship. When in fact… none of the other characters ever discuss it. Victor and yuri never discuss their relationship on screen beyond the bounds of being coach and coachee. And like its cute when yuri is like 😍 please keep being my coach and victor is like yeah 😘 but. Its not the same as them having a personal conversation about their lives?
Anyways I started watching after episode 7 came out because tho I’d heard of it before I just thought it was another queerbaiting sports anime but then everyone freaked out about the kiss! And I actually really liked the skating stuff but when I got to the “kiss” I felt totally betrayed. And I felt like a bitter old gay for feeling betrayed!! So pls don’t send any more asks defending the show to me…I’ve kept watching it and its pretty good but I’m just not getting any joy out if like that weird rings thing or whatever! And I just want to know if other people feel the same as me or if I am being a greedy and meanspirited bitch!!!!
Oh and this is like the longest thing I’ve written on tumblr ever but like… HOW ABOUT THAT INCEST SUBPLOT YALL?? Anybody gonna talk about that ever
