1. In life, you need vacations
where you can be yourself,
Copy !req
2. away from your hectic everyday life.
Copy !req
3. When I get away from skating,
two "L words" come to mind:
Copy !req
4. life and love.
Copy !req
5. I've been neglecting both
for over twenty years.
Copy !req
6. Tenth Skate
Gotta Supercharge It!!
Pre-Grand Prix Final Special!
Copy !req
7. Gotta Supercharge It!!
Copy !req
8. Pre-Grand Prix Final Special!
Copy !req
9. Even Barcelona's cold in December.
Copy !req
10. I thought, other than me, only a Russian
Copy !req
11. would be stupid enough to get
in the pool this time of year.
Copy !req
12. I guess I was right.
Copy !req
13. Chris!
Copy !req
14. Hi, Coach Victor!
Copy !req
15. And here I was hoping to go skinny dipping.
Copy !req
16. Don't let me stop you.
Copy !req
17. I'll even take photos for you.
Copy !req
18. My name is Victor Nikiforov.
Copy !req
19. I was kidding about being on vacation.
Copy !req
20. I just arrived in Barcelona, Spain, for
the Grand Prix Figure Skating Final.
Copy !req
21. He's Christophe Giacometti from Switzerland.
Copy !req
22. Since you left, I'm one of the oldest...
Copy !req
23. And I'm only 25.
Copy !req
24. Nowadays, Chris is sexy
both on and off the ice,
Copy !req
25. but when I first met him at the
European Championships,
Copy !req
26. he was like a little boy running
through the Swiss meadows.
Copy !req
27. I've shared the podium with Chris
at many a Grand Prix Final,
Copy !req
28. European Championship,
and World Championship.
Copy !req
29. I can't imagine a skating season without him,
Copy !req
30. and he has said that
Copy !req
31. he wouldn't be motivated in a
season without me, either.
Copy !req
32. Despite all that, he was savvy enough
Copy !req
33. to make it to the Grand Prix Final.
Copy !req
34. Yuri!
Copy !req
35. At least check yourself in.
Copy !req
36. You do it, Yakov.
Copy !req
37. I'm tired.
Copy !req
38. Yuratchka!
Copy !req
39. Autograph, please!
Copy !req
40. Can I get a photo with you?
Copy !req
41. You ug—
Copy !req
42. Yuri Plisetsky, don't use unattractive words.
Copy !req
43. From Russia, we have Yuri Plisetsky.
Copy !req
44. At just 15, he's qualified for the GP Final
first thing in his senior debut.
Copy !req
45. He's a tomboy cat under my former coach, Yakov.
Copy !req
46. After visiting Japan,
Copy !req
47. Yurio
Copy !req
48. he's been called by his nickname, "Yurio."
Copy !req
49. It's well-known that he has rabid
fans called "Yuri's Angels,"
Copy !req
50. Meow
Copy !req
51. who appear at every competition.
Copy !req
52. Wow, he's so popular.
Copy !req
53. Yuri's Angels are famous.
Copy !req
54. Huh...
Copy !req
55. But JJ Girls are better about following the rules,
Copy !req
56. and we're cuter.
Copy !req
57. Don't diss my fans and call
them ugly, you ugly-ass bitch!
Copy !req
58. So scary.
Copy !req
59. Help, JJ.
Copy !req
60. Oh, he's just jealous because
my fiancée is so beautiful.
Copy !req
61. I think he's the one named
Jean-Jacques Leroy, from Canada.
Copy !req
62. He's a strong gold medal candidate,
Copy !req
63. but he has a certain unapproachable
quality the other competitors don't.
Copy !req
64. Any guy who wears sunglasses
on his head is scum.
Copy !req
65. Find someone better, ugly-ass bitch!
Copy !req
66. Hey, don't be so uppity.
Copy !req
67. Scary!
Copy !req
68. Otabek!
Copy !req
69. Where are you going?
Copy !req
70. Out to eat.
Copy !req
71. Otabek Altin from Kazakhstan, age 18.
Copy !req
72. He rushed into the GP Final at full speed.
Copy !req
73. Ever since he shared the podium with me
Copy !req
74. at Worlds last season, I've sensed
a certain presence about him.
Copy !req
75. But people don't know much
about his personal life.
Copy !req
76. Eating alone?
Copy !req
77. You're still an odd one, huh?
Copy !req
78. Want to join us for dinner?
Copy !req
79. Thanks, but I'll pass.
Copy !req
80. It appears he's not interested in
socializing with other skaters.
Copy !req
81. Huh?
Copy !req
82. What's with you, asshole?
Copy !req
83. Yuri's not answering.
Copy !req
84. Ugh, I can't wait any longer!
Copy !req
85. I'm going to Sagrada Família!
Copy !req
86. Just go.
Copy !req
87. Okay!
Copy !req
88. Phichit Chulanont from Thailand.
Copy !req
89. He won the Cup of China,
Copy !req
90. becoming the first Southeast Asian figure
skater to qualify for the Grand Prix Final,
Copy !req
91. but I feel he's also peerless when
it comes to skillful selfies.
Copy !req
92. He was Yuri's rink mate in Detroit,
Copy !req
93. and Yuri says he's the only foreign
skater he considers a friend.
Copy !req
94. And among the six qualifiers for the Final,
Copy !req
95. Top 6 Men's Singles Figure Skaters
Copy !req
96. the last one, who made it by a hair's width,
Copy !req
97. is this jet-lagged sleeping beauty,
Katsuki Yuri from Japan.
Copy !req
98. I've come here with him as his coach.
Copy !req
99. After the Rostelecom Cup,
Copy !req
100. Yuri spent his few remaining days
Copy !req
101. Congratulations on Qualifying for the GPF 2 Years in a Row!
Thank You, Katsuki Yuri and Coach Victor Nikiforov!
Copy !req
102. until the Final maximizing his practice time.
Copy !req
103. When I think about it,
Copy !req
104. it's already been eight months
since I first came to Hasetsu.
Copy !req
105. I can't remember when I last spent
this much time with Maccachin.
Copy !req
106. Every day, I've been able to bathe
in a bath bigger than any tub,
Copy !req
107. and I can eat all the delicious
pork cutlet bowls I want.
Copy !req
108. This is heaven on Earth.
Copy !req
109. Yuri's life and love have taught me
Copy !req
110. about a brand new world that
I'd never known before.
Copy !req
111. Huh?
Copy !req
112. Where's Victor?
Copy !req
113. Oh, he's at the pool with Chris.
Copy !req
114. Oh! Phichit-kun's...
Copy !req
115. JJ...
Copy !req
116. Yurio...
Copy !req
117. Wow.
Copy !req
118. "Now that I know what love
is and am stronger for it,
Copy !req
119. I'll prove it to myself with a Grand
Prix Final gold medal," huh?
Copy !req
120. Help me, Victor.
Copy !req
121. Yuri!
Copy !req
122. I'm freezing!
Copy !req
123. Please draw a hot bath!
Copy !req
124. Yuri, can you make coffee, too?
Copy !req
125. You were still asleep?
Copy !req
126. Whoa!
Copy !req
127. Y-You're freezing!
Copy !req
128. Quit clinging to me! Both of you!
Copy !req
129. The aggressive jump composition
Yuri's planned in order to win
Copy !req
130. includes a quadruple flip, which he's yet
to land, as his final free skate jump.
Copy !req
131. If he sticks with his old jumps,
Copy !req
132. even if he skates a flawless program,
JJ has a higher base score.
Copy !req
133. Okay.
Copy !req
134. I'm done with practice!
Copy !req
135. Off I go!
Copy !req
136. Yuri, let's go over it one last time.
Copy !req
137. Yuri, what do you want to do now?
Copy !req
138. I recommend a good night's rest to
prepare for tomorrow's short program.
Copy !req
139. Don't be such a model coach now.
Copy !req
140. This is my first time in Barcelona,
so take me sightseeing.
Copy !req
141. Leave it to me!
Copy !req
142. Yeah!
Copy !req
143. Salud!
Copy !req
144. Perfecto!
Copy !req
145. Yeah!
Copy !req
146. I haven't shopped in ages. This is fun!
Copy !req
147. Hey, let me take a breather.
Copy !req
148. I would've liked to shop when
the Euro was weaker, though.
Copy !req
149. You don't want anything, Yuri?
Copy !req
150. Oh... Nah.
Copy !req
151. Every competitor has a different
way of winding down.
Copy !req
152. It's unusual for Yuri to suggest sightseeing.
Copy !req
153. It might mean he's just that
nervous this time around.
Copy !req
154. Okay, then...
Copy !req
155. Yuri!
Copy !req
156. I'll buy you a suit for your birthday!
Copy !req
157. I think you should burn the suit and tie
you wore at that press conference.
Copy !req
158. Huh?
Copy !req
159. Wait, you don't have to!
Copy !req
160. I kind of like that suit!
Copy !req
161. Hey, Victor!
Copy !req
162. Where's Yuratchka?
Copy !req
163. We're about to have a fan meeting.
Copy !req
164. I can smell Yuratchka!
It's coming from over here!
Copy !req
165. Oh, this hair is Yuratchka's!
Copy !req
166. Crap...
Copy !req
167. How do I get myself out of this?
Copy !req
168. Yuri, get on.
Copy !req
169. Huh? You're...
Copy !req
170. There's Yuratchka!
Copy !req
171. Huh? No way!
Copy !req
172. It's Otabek Altin from Kazakhstan!
Copy !req
173. Huh? What?
Copy !req
174. Are you coming or not?
Copy !req
175. I'm sure athletes aren't the
only ones who are sensitive
Copy !req
176. to tailwinds that can take
one to worlds unknown.
Copy !req
177. News that the hero of Kazakhstan
kidnapped the fairy of Russia
Copy !req
178. The fairy of Russia, Yuri Plisetsky, rides off on
a motorbike with Otabek, the hero of Kazakhstan
Copy !req
179. spread across the world like wildfire.
Copy !req
180. However, the hero didn't lure
the fairy out on a mere whim.
Copy !req
181. Yurio thought they had nothing in common,
Copy !req
182. but five years prior, they had
actually trained together
Copy !req
183. at Yakov's summer camp.
Copy !req
184. Really?
Copy !req
185. I don't remember that!
Copy !req
186. At the time, I was in my first
year in the junior division.
Copy !req
187. But I couldn't keep up with
the Russian junior skaters,
Copy !req
188. so I was put in the novice class.
Copy !req
189. That's where I met you.
Copy !req
190. Yuri Plisetsky had the
unforgettable eyes of a soldier.
Copy !req
191. A soldier?
Copy !req
192. Me?
Copy !req
193. I had just moved my home rink
from Moscow to St. Petersburg.
Copy !req
194. I was desperate.
Copy !req
195. I'd decided that I wouldn't complain
until I was good enough.
Copy !req
196. After that camp,
Copy !req
197. I moved around to train, from Russia
to the US and then to Canada.
Copy !req
198. I only managed to return to my
home rink in Almaty last year.
Copy !req
199. Now, more than ever, I want to win
the championship for Kazakhstan.
Copy !req
200. Otabek, why did you talk to me?
Copy !req
201. I'm a rival, aren't I?
Copy !req
202. I've always thought we were alike.
Copy !req
203. That's all.
Copy !req
204. Are you going to become friends
with me or not?
Copy !req
205. Yurio had never been asked
to become friends before!
Copy !req
206. Now, back to the main story
where I'm shopping with Yuri.
Copy !req
207. Here, the mood had turned sour!
Copy !req
208. It's not here, either.
Copy !req
209. Yuri, calm down and remember.
Copy !req
210. It's the bag of nuts we just bought.
Copy !req
211. It's a brown bag with green print.
Copy !req
212. Sorry.
Copy !req
213. I have no idea where I dropped it.
Copy !req
214. I'll go back to the shop and get another bag!
Copy !req
215. It's okay, Yuri.
Copy !req
216. The nuts shop would be closed by now.
Copy !req
217. Let's head back. You're tired, right?
Copy !req
218. You don't have to say it like that!
Copy !req
219. Well, I'm tired.
Copy !req
220. We ended up walking in silence, looking
around at the nearby Christmas market.
Copy !req
221. Victor, your birthday is Christmas Day, right?
Copy !req
222. Yeah.
Copy !req
223. What would you like for your gift?
Copy !req
224. In Russia, we don't celebrate
before the actual birthday.
Copy !req
225. We don't really celebrate Christmas, either.
Copy !req
226. I see.
Copy !req
227. Do you want some hot wine, too?
Copy !req
228. Ah, I try not to drink before a competition.
Copy !req
229. Oh, right.
Copy !req
230. When Yuri's searching for an answer,
Copy !req
231. his eyes sparkle, even if he doesn't say anything.
Copy !req
232. He's looking for something
right now, like a dowsing rod.
Copy !req
233. I'll just watch over him
without making conversation.
Copy !req
234. Victor!
Copy !req
235. Let's go in this store!
Copy !req
236. Can you show me these two in front?
Copy !req
237. I've always wanted a lucky charm.
Copy !req
238. I-It's a lucky charm so that I
can do my best in the Final!
Copy !req
239. It's also a thank you gift to
Victor for all of his help.
Copy !req
240. This one, please. I'll pay in installments.
Copy !req
241. Sometimes, when backed into a corner,
Copy !req
242. athletes can act completely unexpectedly.
Copy !req
243. Thank you for everything up to now.
Copy !req
244. I... I couldn't think of something better.
Copy !req
245. But, um...
Copy !req
246. I'll try my best from tomorrow on, so...
Copy !req
247. Tell me something for good luck.
Copy !req
248. Sure.
Copy !req
249. I'll say something you won't
even have to think about.
Copy !req
250. Tomorrow, show me the skating that
you can honestly say you liked best.
Copy !req
251. Okay!
Copy !req
252. That's the only shortcut to
a gold medal that I know.
Copy !req
253. I'm hungry.
Copy !req
254. Let's go grab a bite.
Copy !req
255. I have absolute faith in what you decide, Yuri.
Copy !req
256. AGHHHHH
Copy !req
257. What's wrong, Mari-chan?
Copy !req
258. Yurio looks like he's enjoying
having tea with someone!
Copy !req
259. Whoa, really?
Copy !req
260. It's Otabek from Kazakhstan!
Copy !req
261. Oh, Minako-sensei, Mari-neechan.
You're already here.
Copy !req
262. Crap, crap, crap.
Copy !req
263. Yuri, we need a huge favor!
Copy !req
264. You're way too happy about this.
Copy !req
265. I could just die right now!
Copy !req
266. Why did we all have to get together?
Copy !req
267. How much should I pay you?
Copy !req
268. Hello, ladies.
Copy !req
269. Still, it's kind of weird for us
all to be here like this
Copy !req
270. Yurio, have some shrimp!
Copy !req
271. Picture, picture!
Copy !req
272. Oh, sure.
Copy !req
273. before the Final starts.
Copy !req
274. At last year's Final,
Copy !req
275. I was always by myself, even at the banquet.
Copy !req
276. I couldn't even talk to Victor.
Copy !req
277. Yuri, you don't remember?
Copy !req
278. What?
Copy !req
279. Yuri, you got drunk on champagne
and started dancing.
Copy !req
280. Everyone saw it.
Copy !req
281. Huh?!
Copy !req
282. That was disgusting as hell.
Copy !req
283. I was dragged into a dance-off
and got humiliated, too!
Copy !req
284. A dance-off?
Copy !req
285. With Yurio?
Copy !req
286. I did mine with a pole dance, half-naked.
Copy !req
287. I start going off the rails
when I drink, just like my
Copy !req
288. Kyushu born-and-bred dad,
so I was trying to lay off, but...
Copy !req
289. The banquet refers to the party
held after the competition.
Copy !req
290. Learning proper social skills and etiquette
is also important for skaters.
Copy !req
291. What's wrong, Yuri?
Copy !req
292. Last year, Yuri suffered a
crushing defeat in the Final.
Copy !req
293. You look so glum.
Copy !req
294. Have you had anything to drink?
Copy !req
295. He looked like his coach had
dragged him to the banquet.
Copy !req
296. To eat?
Copy !req
297. There's pizza...
Copy !req
298. At least, at first.
Copy !req
299. Since he couldn't mingle
well with other skaters,
Copy !req
300. he kept drinking champagne, and...
Copy !req
301. I still have videos of what happened.
Copy !req
302. I do, too.
Copy !req
303. Wait, what?
Copy !req
304. Yuri, that's so dirty.
Copy !req
305. I want to see!
Copy !req
306. Don't look!
Copy !req
307. W-Wait... Cut it out already!
Copy !req
308. Isn't this amazing?
Copy !req
309. What's with the rings, you two?
Copy !req
310. Huh? Rings?
Copy !req
311. I don't remember you wearing that.
Copy !req
312. U-Um, this is...
Copy !req
313. They're a pair!
Copy !req
314. Congrats on your marriage!
Copy !req
315. Wait, no...
Copy !req
316. Um...
Copy !req
317. Everyone!
Copy !req
318. My good friend here got married!
Copy !req
319. N-No, this is, um...
Copy !req
320. It's to thank him for all his help...
Copy !req
321. And lots of other things... Yes, other things!
Copy !req
322. Yeah, don't get the wrong idea.
Copy !req
323. This is an engagement ring.
Copy !req
324. We'll get married once he wins a gold medal.
Copy !req
325. What?
Copy !req
326. Right, Yuri?
Copy !req
327. V-Victor!
Copy !req
328. A gold...
Copy !req
329. ...medal...
Copy !req
330. ...huh?
Copy !req
331. Uh, well, um...
Copy !req
332. Wait a second!
Copy !req
333. I'll be the one who wins gold
and gets married, of course!
Copy !req
334. That's right, it'll definitely be JJ.
Copy !req
335. Sorry we can't congratulate you
on that future marriage.
Copy !req
336. Well, tomorrow's an early start.
Better call it a night.
Copy !req
337. Huh, what?
Copy !req
338. Hey, wait a second.
Copy !req
339. I was just joking!
Copy !req
340. Kick Kick
Copy !req
341. Victor Nikiforov is dead!
Copy !req
342. Why do you look so happy to be
looking after that damn pig?
Copy !req
343. Did you want to compete against me?
Copy !req
344. Don't be so full of yourself.
Copy !req
345. Not all skaters look up to you.
Copy !req
346. Just go away already, geezer.
Copy !req
347. The ring you got from that pig is garbage.
Copy !req
348. I'll win just to prove how
incompetent his owner is.
Copy !req
349. Let me go!
Copy !req
350. If I'd stayed in Russia as a competitor,
Copy !req
351. Yurio wouldn't be this motivated to fight.
Copy !req
352. And neither would I...
Copy !req
353. This place reminds me of Hasetsu's ocean.
Copy !req
354. I thought that, too.
Copy !req
355. Yuri, you may not realize this,
Copy !req
356. but many others besides me
got their "L words" from you.
Copy !req
357. Wow!
Copy !req
358. It feels like it's really happening.
Copy !req
359. Mari-chan, take my picture!
Copy !req
360. Sala!
Copy !req
361. Why are you here, Mickey?
Copy !req
362. I'm the one who made it to the Final!
Copy !req
363. I'm standing guard to make sure
the hyenas don't touch you!
Copy !req
364. Let's go to a club after this!
Copy !req
365. Not her again.
Copy !req
366. Guang-hong, can you watch it on your end?
Copy !req
367. Nope, the live stream isn't working for me.
Copy !req
368. Grand Prix Final in Barcelona
Katsuki Yuri Cheering Party!
Copy !req
369. I'll be the head cheerleader
at tonight's public viewing!
Copy !req
370. The Grand Prix Final is here
in Barcelona, Spain!
Copy !req
371. Tonight, it's the Men's Singles Short Program.
Copy !req
372. Victor...
Copy !req
373. After this season ends,
Copy !req
374. my family runs a hot spring
resort, so please come.
Copy !req
375. If I win this dance-off...
Copy !req
376. You'll become my coach, right?
Copy !req
377. Be my coach, Victor!
Copy !req
378. To Be Continued!!!
Copy !req
379. Hola! I'm the figure skater Oda Nobunari!
Copy !req
380. Oda-kun!
Copy !req
381. Nobu-kun, over here!
Copy !req
382. Vic-chan! Yuri-kun!
Copy !req
383. Huh? What's with those rings?
Copy !req
384. Next time, Eleventh Skate:
Copy !req
385. Gotta Super-Supercharge It!!
Copy !req
386. Eleventh Skate
Gotta Super-Supercharge It!!
Grand Prix Final Short Program
Copy !req
387. Grand Prix Final Short Program.
Copy !req
388. Oda-kun! Let me take a picture!
Copy !req
389. Okay!
Copy !req
