The skating stories seemed to emulate other amines. Guang Long's looked very Cowboy Bebop, while Georgi's was super JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (his costume in ep6 screamed JoJo) with its colours and angles.

My boyfriend and I binged the first 4 episodes together when that was all there was, and now we watch it every week and love every moment. I have to deal with the fact that he now says that Phichit is his other boyfriend.

I've booked us tickets to go ice skating together in December. :allears:

sakugablog actually posts translated interviews with the show's costume designer, if you're interested in their inspirations or directions they were given by the director. you can find them here

I actually meant the animation style itself, but thanks! That's equally fascinating :)

Can season 2 just be about Yurio with Yuri and Viktor as his gay dads that he hates but also admires and hates them more because he admires them?

As long as Phichit lives with them too. As much as this is an ice skating show, I could sometimes use a little less ice skating sometimes, you know? You're having to fit character relationships around the skating sequences and it feels like too little.

The thought suddenly occurs, do skaters get those sort of leg breaks you sometimes see in other sports? They've got to be landing quite heavily and fast off some jumps, and I can't imagine that's good for your bones.
