7 MORE ‘YURI!!! ON ICE’ CHARACTER FACTS

Yuzuru Hanyu did so amazing. And Nathan Chen had such an incredible long program. And Shoma, and Javier, and Adam, and everyone were incredible. And I’m just so happy for them all.

    Yakov is said to be based upon Alexei Mishin. Mishin is a figure skating coach who formerly coached (the now retired) Evgeni Plushenko (who is a four-time Olympic medalist, three-time World champion, seven-time European champion, four-time GPF champion and ten-time Russian Nationals champion)

    When Guan Hong goes to America to train during the summer, he ends up buying Western clothes in bulk
  3. SaraScreen Shot 2018-02-17 at 9.31.14 pm.png
    Sara was actually originally designed with the same brown hair as Michele. However, her hair colour wast later changed to black during development. This is why in the end credits she’s shown with brown hair
  4. EmilScreen Shot 2018-02-17 at 9.26.44 pm.png
    Emil likes to do extreme sports during the off season. Which ends up making his coach pretty nervous…
  5. PhichitScreen Shot 2018-02-17 at 9.25.16 pm.png
    Phichit was scouted when he was younger at a local rink in a commercial district in Bangkok after the discovery of his talent
  6. Seung-gilScreen Shot 2018-02-17 at 9.27.30 pm.png
    Seung-gil’s theme for the season was ‘greed.’ He also doesn’t like vegetables, but likes meat and dogs

    Since the very first episode, Georgi had made an appearance in each one. It wasn’t until episode 6 though that he finally had a speaking part

Come for the pop culture. Stay for the bad grammar.

    1. I had wondered about Sara’s hair too! Hahah yeah I was pumped about the men’s skating so I felt like doing some Yuri On Ice research! (Plus, it was kinda only acceptable anime to use as a way to rant a little about the Olympics…)
