Medwest con Mappa comments on romance. Still waiting for confirmation
>fan: did mappa set out to focus on the romance between yuuri and viktor?
studio mappa: yamamoto-kantoku wanted to focus on the coach-student relationship and develop theirs into smth romantic. that you are here filling this room and asking this question shows yamamoto-kantoku has done what she set out to do and its very satisfying as a studio to see that.
>ALSO man how to explain the lead in to this there's a bit where others are trying to calm down evil Yuuri & his responses get weirder & weirder.Like, "ILL TAKE YOUR X AND DO Y AND DESTROY THE WORLD" and each time getting weirder and longer but ending w/ AND DESTROY THE WORLD. And Viktor's like "what about Makkachin?" And he's like "ILL MAKKACHIN YOUR MAKKACHIN WITH A MAKKACHIN AND MAKKACHIN AND DESTROY THE WORLD"
This persons twitter has most detailed account of Yuri on Fes mobile.twitter.com/wish evening star
Hosoya is cast in an anime this Fall. Come back pretty much confirmed.
Ayden Richardson
No one cares.
Jonathan King
If this is true it will take a bit of fun out of the fandom. I'll miss mocking hetfag no homo
Joshua Wood
I do. You're more than welcome to go to another thread.
Isaiah Mitchell
It was coming when Sugita talked about him and did a brief update on his radio show.
Ryder Powell
>that you are here filling this room and asking this question shows yamamoto-kantoku has done what she set out to do and its very satisfying as a studio to see that.
Hopefully they understand fans and continue with the rabu then.
This happened more than 10 days ago, and only now is spreading? Shit, wake up /yoi/
Jack Sanders
TOP KEK
Who will setup the butsudan for tora and karic fans.
Elijah Fisher
I don't even see them as a couple, I just see it as Viktor using himself to push Yuuri to his limits because Yuuri probably is gay and he probably thinks Viktor is too so he's trying his best in Ice Skating to impress him so they fall deeper in love.
Basically it's all one sided delusional feelings from Yuuri.
Connor Jackson
Nice headcanon.
Dominic Smith
It's ok. I understand. Get that one last no homo urge out. It's good for healing
Chase Parker
>Yeah he said that at the panel. Basically confirmed that it was always meant to be a romance. >Always meant to be a romance
Benjamin Powell
Lelouch I love and hate man, but Jesus Christ.
Juan Rogers
I don't even care if it's gay or not, I really enjoyed the show but I don't know why this has to be a big deal to people because they weren't even the best things about YOI.
Well it's just how I see it so yeah.
Angel Scott
How will t*ra and k*rice no homo Otsuka.
Lucas Ward
>tfw t*ra wasn't present at the panel >tfw she will never get to hear what they said in Japanese and twist it
Aiden Barnes
Yeah it was completely overshadowed by the buzz for Japan Expo. I hope this means we get more details about the panel.
Chase Gonzalez
People were distracted by the Yuri on Fes stuff.
Ryan Ramirez
Tripfags are confirmed cancer.
Christian Nelson
>studio mappa: yamamoto-kantoku wanted to focus on the coach-student relationship and develop buddies
Asher Roberts
people got too caught up in yoifes, but at least it's now spreading
still salty that we had to find out from dumblr, of all places.
Joshua Gutierrez
>Implying this will stop hetfags Not even baldfat fucking on screen can stop them.
Jose Hernandez
Based Otsuka.
Colton Hill
Not gonna destroy them loyal shippers hearts now are they.
Brayden Perez
Good
Lulu pls
Owen Fisher
Oh Ledouche, you never change
Nathaniel Allen
Look out for the detailed charts and "Otsuka is just a producer, what he says doesn't matter" posts from them soon.
Jose Wood
It's not stopping this retard.
Jace Flores
Who is the "studio mappa" who a answered the question?
Jace Adams
Same way she did soulmates. Don't you fools know about platonic romance! I always act like a love struck fool around my bro. No Homo!
Jace Fisher
...
Brayden Ward
you'd have to a moron to deny them being outright faggots for each other
Logan Adams
Yeah but she can be a smartass when translates from japanese, at least now she could just say "muh I won't believe it until I don't see it a video or a official report" but no one would give a fuck of her comment
Xavier Edwards
I remember how tora and karice tripped over themselves and called those who translated an early interview with Otsuka saying Baldfat had romantic implications as biased shipper translations. Then went and no homo translated it....hmmmm
Ethan Phillips
It's weird how similar those two are.
Juan Taylor
That girl is talking about another "tea" and I wonder what other 'secrets' they revealed... what the fuck? Do we know more than nips themselves? Kek
David Reed
Bets on tora and karice leaving the fandom now that her no homo cred is gone
Tyler Cook
Weirdly they still have fans supporting them in notes.
Now for the real questions that truly matter. If you could go back in time and have any Yuri!!! On Ice meal from an event cafe, which would you choose?
Cameron Moore
>Koi to Uso had more homo than the entirety of YOI
How will YOI ever recover?
Jaxson Roberts
Sucks this news is a week old and is only just now spreading.
Jackson Gonzalez
The katsudon of course. If I'm gonna die from high cholesterol levels, it better be from a yoi event.
Christian Stewart
...
Blake Anderson
who?
Justin Wood
Aren't they a chick or something?
Julian Foster
I'm surprised by this. Who convinced him to go?
Samuel Torres
Well SayoKubo was at Japan Expo at the exact same date, so it flew under the radar.
Jeremiah Lee
It's not a challenge. I'm happy with my homo skaters. Now go.
Anthony Ross
Probably his own idea because he craves the attention.
Jonathan Parker
The money probably.
John Myers
Money and Piglust
Wyatt King
I hope someone asks him about Chris or JJ just because I want to see his triggered face kek
Aiden Allen
>completely forgotten about because SayoKubo at Japan Expo >meanwhile Otsuka being based as usual
It feels like not many know about him outside of /Yoi/
Christian Lewis
>hates Chris
Johnny Weir shit taste confirmed.
Jaxson Morgan
I'm just glad he's now proven Our Guy. He doesn't care as long as he keeps his people alive with fujobucks.
Juan Cook
Johnny Weir hates Chris because he reminds him of certain people he met during his competitive figure skating days.
Jaxon Wright
Still terrible taste.
Austin Bell
I think most people go for answers from KuboSayo because they created it but he still worked on it.
Brody Russell
Yeah, what's weird is that no one tweeted about the panel much at all. Sure, a couple of twitter users who attended are now confirming that the tumblr post is true, but why didn't they themselves tweet about it in the first place? I guess Japan Expo hype really drowned out everything else.
Ian Howard
Translators involved probably made things hard.
Tyler Gomez
>According to MAPPA’s panel at Anime Midwest, Yuri and Viktor aren’t wearing their rings in the preview because they were playing with Play-Doh and didn’t want to get their rings dirty.
What did they mean by this?
Brandon Edwards
What preview?
Andrew Ortiz
What.
Blake Wright
Is this a euphemism?
Jason Gomez
Source?
Andrew Collins
No need to post shit from some rando who's just making things up, user.
It went full lgbt right in front of him. T and K are going to commit sudoku.
Jace Peterson
What do I do with this information if I don't know what PREVIEW he is talking about?
Jason Morales
Apparently Otsuka requested people not to record anything related to the production process, and since its a smaller con, people actually listened.
Ian Richardson
I sent them an ask about it
Gavin Davis
Who's the gay guy?
Eli Ramirez
>12 days until the OST release I forgot how life was when I wasn't constantly waiting for something YoI-related in the post.
Camden Martinez
Well that's pretty homo
Nathan Bailey
I'm upset Crunchyroll is fucking last minute about their guests. They did this for Anime Expo, announcing SayoKubo's attendance less than a week before it started. I hope people go and ask him questions though.
Jackson Gutierrez
>listened Just for a week kek
Now let's see if the Spanish autists will behave and won't spam Kubo on twitter and instagram
