the character I least understand Otabek. Well, we're not really given a lot to go on. Presumably that will be series 2.
interactions I enjoyed the most Victor/Yuuri. It's the core of the series, and I do really like it. It's funny, it's embarrassing, it veers wildly between professional and unprofessional, and I've been re-watching and seeing again how many little bits are given an extra edge by the episode 10 revelations.
the character who scares me the most I definitely wouldn't want to be taught PE, or indeed anything else, by Lilia. Professional, yes. Excellent teacher, yet. Terrifying, definitely. Imagine if you hadn't done your homework.
the character who is mostly like me I was going to say that none of them really are, because as sportspeople at that level they are driven in a way that I'm not, and the other option is small business owner, which I find equally terrifying. And then I remembered Guang Hong's narration of his free skate as a fantasy narrative in which he is a dashing underworld assassin and dies outnumbered in a noble sacrifice. Which I might have occasionally done on the way to the toilets at work in some of the odder buildings I've been in. Also he is embarrassed by dinner companions stripping in public.
hottest looks character Victor Nikiforov, no contest here!
one thing I dislike about my fave character I can say very little for Victor's choice of pants.
one thing I like about my hated character JJ manages to behave with considerably dignity after his worst-ever performance.
a quote or scene that haunts me "Let's end this." I do really like the way that Yuuri's worry about his own issues makes him very unkind to other people sometimes.
a death that left me indifferent There's only one death, and since we don't meet him I can't say that I wept for Vicchan. But I would certainly have sacrificed Makkachin to the gods of narrative if necessary.
a character I wish died but didn’t I don't want any of them to die, it's not really that kind of story. Although Yuri Plisetsky would probably get along with DEATH on account of their shared love of cats.
my ship that never sailed If I were being malicious, I would say Victor/Yuuri. But it has sailed, it's just the captain isn't very good at navigation.
Canonically, I suppose Lilia/Yakov is at the salvage yard, maybe it can yet have another chance!

Victor/Yuuri. It's the core of the series, and I do really like it. It's funny, it's embarrassing, it veers wildly between professional and unprofessional, and I've been re-watching and seeing again how many little bits are given an extra edge by the episode 10 revelations.
