a random list of things you might not remember if you weren\u2019t there while Yuuri on ice was just coming out because I was in a mood:<\/p>\n

-when the trailer\/preview dropped and everyone was like \u201cuuuh looks gay\u201d and then the actual first episode came out and we were like. Yep. Called it<\/p>\n

-when someone finally translated Stammi Vicino and everyone got really excited because it was explicitly mlm<\/p>\n

-for about the first three weeks everyone was like \u201cthere is no way this show can get any gayer\u201d and then it regularly did so we all just gave up<\/p>\n

-when people caught on the fact that the opening changed details with every new episode and got really excited, and that one person who made side by side comparisons of all openings every week<\/p>\n

-that very short period of time when we genuinely couldn\u2019t tell if Yurio was meant to be an antagonist or not<\/p>\n

-I\u2019m pretty sure Evgenia Medvedeva was there from the start and there was just this. Surreal feeling that along with all of us trash goblins one of the rising stars of the figure skating world was also very emotional over these anime boys <\/p>\n

-on that note, those actual figure skating fans who were delivering a ton of meta over what actual skaters the characters were based on<\/p>\n

-when everyone lost it after ep3 came out and we were all like! did Victor just tell Yuuri he loves him through food metaphors??<\/p>\n

-just. \u201cI\u2019m a pork cutlet bowl fatale that enthralls men\u201d. that was good shit<\/p>\n

-the \u201cVictor is going to leave Yuuri and break his heart!\u201d discourse that came with that episode <\/p>\n

-and then we all kinda calmed down with episode four and I remember everyone crying because,,,, they took one whole episode just for character development,,,,, we stan one (1) good anime <\/p>\n

-the smol japanese skater that got really excited about meeting Yuuri and we were all like \u201cmood\u201d<\/p>\n

-also when Christophe was introduced and everyone was just like, WHAT THE FUCK<\/p>\n

-when ep6 came out with the preview for ep7 and everyone was like. THEY DIDN\u2019T SHOW ANYTHING TOO GAY IN THE PREVIEW WHAT DOES THAT MEAN??? <\/i>SHOULD WE WORRY???? (no literally I just found some screenshots of a text I sent to a friend of mine that says \u201cthe preview doesn\u2019t look gay enough and I don\u2019t trust that\u201d)<\/p>\n

-when ep. 7 dropped and everyone and their mother lost their shit and YOI trended for a whole week on tumblr and people were joining the fandom in HORDES which to this day is probably still the most surreal fandom experience I\u2019ve ever had <\/p>\n

-idk if this was a universal thing but the italian subfandom had all those michele crispino memes about wine<\/p>\n

-also when Sara Crispino got introduced and the subtitles said Sala and everyone was crying because it was just really bad<\/p>\n

-everyone shouting to know Victor\u2019s backstory<\/p>\n

-that whole week of being 100% convinced Makkachin would die, fun times<\/p>\n

-when episode? 10 I think? came out and it was revealed that Yuuri had seduced Victor at the afterparty the previous year and everyone was LOSING IT<\/p>\n

– that whole episode just killed everyone tbh<\/p>\n

-also Otabek showed up and people were thirsting reaaal hard<\/p>\n

-the Otayuri discourse which I\u2019m assuming continues to this day<\/p>\n

-HAMSTER META<\/p>\n

-\u201cI will give you something gold and shiny for your birthday\u201d and everyone being like. Are they tricking us into thinking it\u2019s a medal when it\u2019s, in fact, a wedding ring, or <\/i>are they tricking us into thinking it\u2019s a wedding ring when it is, in fact, a medal?<\/p>\n

-everyone crying after episode 11 and all the meta on what was gonna happen. I think the general opinion was that Yuuri would win gold and then he and Victor would retire together lmao<\/p>\n

-also when it got strongly implied that Christophe had a boyfriend and people got really emotional, that was cute<\/p>\n

-I just remember everyone dying over the final episode, with the freaking Stammi Vicino duet, tbh <\/p>\n

-overall it was just a freaking wild experience and two years later I\u2019m still so glad I was there for that<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Not to be dramatic but being in the yoi fandom from the very beginning was literally the best experience of my life and nothing will come close my complete enjoyment of that show<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
