@ Faded ; Aaa it would be awfully nice but I feel like they'd be pushing the envelope a little too far,, all this touchy feely stuff and ＥＰＩＳＯＤＥ ７ ＢＯＩＳ are already treading a very delicate tightrope since it's being aired on television

It's not like a clearly earmarked shounen ai/yaoi that has (marginally) looser censorship laws (think Junjou, Sekaiichi Hatsukoi, Love Stage!!, or nsfw OVAs like Sensitive [you can't say that on Chikun Smoothee!]); we gotta remember flat out BL is a niche market in Japan and even if it's just a healthy gay relationship with boys doing relatively pure things, if they go all out it'll be viewed in the vein of, um... "less than savory" anime like Super Lovers. I'm trying to word this delicately so I'm not in violation of club rules but I'm very angry constantly

edit: i guess u could say they're on thin ice

That is true.
I was just thinking about the possibilities that could happen.
They probably wouldn't include an episode like that because as said they are really tight on the rules of tv.
I can't imagine them going all out but small things here and there like, *Cough* kissing and leaning foreheads I can see happening.

[spoiler: it's already happened and it's been confirmed it was a kiss. Many people say it was a hug but no...]

it makes me really salty when girls are like oh em gee its a yaoi!!! its shounen-ai!!!!!!!! im a fujoshi <3

like it isnt a yaoi? its literally a sports anime with two adult men who possibly have a relationship together
and we all know yaois are the bad without plot and other nasty things and this isnt
straight girls literally upset me so much and i cant even begin

[swiftblossom]

YOI is pretty much the only anime I've gotten my cousins into, and they love it because of the ice skating and then they're against LGBT and everything when I'm over here yelling "MY SHIP!"
They don't understand the feels xD

yes!! yoi actually shows an accurate, healthy relationship. yuri and victor don't have the gendered roles that yaoi has (god bless) and like?? i love them so much I hate it when people call it a yaoi.

Yeah. It's pretty sucky, because yaoi always leads off into ahem topics and yoi doesn't.... maybe.... it's implied, but that's about it.

I watch this because wooo anime and also woooo ice skating dudes //also a little bit because yesss gay dudes. But mostly because it's interesting to see ice skating and how it works put into anime :>

First sport anime I like too...

[nana]

Yeah it isn't yaoi but people are just so into the ships that they kind of assume it is. Just a simple kiss or hug make people immediately come to a conclusion that its in the Yaoi genre.
Small spoilers' Yeah Victor has mentioned about him maybe being Yuuri's boyfriend but they don't over do those kind of things so its not really considered to be Yaoi.

Though I really am Into the ship so I root for them.
