The anime "Yuri On Ice" was unexpectedly been widely accepted and loved by almost everyone. The ice skating/figure skating anime have something in it, some animes don't have and haven't discovered yet.

The "Yuri On Ice" anime follows Yuri Katsuki's figure skating career. His coach Viktor Nikiforov helps him in achieving one he had failed to do in the last Grand Prix where he placed in last. Other than Yuri, Yurio or Yuri Plitsetsky's journey as a young skater was also featured in the anime. The anime might be a simple sports anime for some but something different is in it, first, it's LGBT concept and the change of pace from subtle relationship between Yuri and Victor to a more obvious and apparent one.

The anime "Yuri On Ice" debuted last October of this year and with its 11 episodes, the hit of the anime was huge. The rom-com element was nicely implemented plus the psychological aspect of the anime was hinted and it evolved nicely. Plus, the graphics of the anime was unique and refreshing in the eyes. The choreography was well done and as it is a figure skating anime, it must have been hard but the anime nailed it.

At the final episode of "Yuri On Ice,"  a special guest will be voicing one of the characters there. Stephane Lambiel, a famous Swish choreographer will be the one to be a guest voice actor. As a two-time World Champion, Yuri's destiny semms exciting.

The relationship of Yuri and Victor in "Yuri On Ice" will be exciting. The final episode might feature what would really happen in Yuri's career and what will really happen between the two of them.
