SA above you - BUT THERE IS ONE NO HOMO MOMENT ... according to people ... which to me read as 'please continue to pose divaishly in my house while I blush' - the one where Victor asks Yuuri about partners and he mentions some ex girlfriend. Sure, he can be bi but yeah ... seen weird debates on that as well. I get they come from sports anime genre but I never watched those (last one I watched, also with husband, was Yamishibai).

It's probably more complicated anon - some people love to misread the clear tone whatever media does. Poland was scandalised at 7th HP book and to me it's been clear-cut that Dumbledore and Grindelwald were in a very toxic relation that might have never been official for them but still read as possessive (yep, not romantic, the bad kind dark one but still, not friendship!).

Neon Genesis Evangelion had same moans with Shinji and Kaworu ... same as No.6 with main characters (here - it is somewhat convoluted but not for the lack of queer content but we do not know if Inn Keeper and Rat were binary as first one seems to have no gender and second one could be just very femme).

Death Note author, Saiyuki one and the Wolf's Rain one kind of would fit with their works - while not with those (as in stated clearly) but others had similar problems. Plus whomever written Yugi-Oh ... which was a horror apparently and not some merch machine.

No one mentioned an ex-girlfriend.

Once Victor asked if there was a girl Yuuri liked, but after that, when asking Yuuri about his past relationships and when talking about his own past relationships, Victor always used "koibito" which is a gender neutral term.

Sadly CR decided to translate koibito as "girlfriend" all times but during the beach scene (they translate it there as "boyfriend"), so that's on the official translator messing up. In the dub this was fixed afaik.

That was me anoning above and that makes sense, did not listen in as we watched it at night with subtitles but forgot who was the translator but it was Victor asking if Yuuri is taken and his answer sounded like he had an ex gf but did not hear words used.

Not true, there are several no homo moments:


Victor taught me love: B-But not like that, I mean platonic love! Just like the love of my friends and family.

They kissed: Haha I was just doing it to surprise you!

Rings: Good Luck(TM) rings.

That never happened, unless there was change of the script in the dub? If so, blame Funimation.

Yes, it was a surprise. A thanks/payback after the quad flip surprise. They also ended looking at each other eyes and smiling while ignoring the whole world. And, you know, they kissed, and their PDA only increased after that.

Rings: Good Luck(TM) rings.
The rings mean many things according to Yuuri and WoG, and yes not all those things are of romantic nature, so? Are you trying to say that if everything isn't 100% romantic all the time, then it invalidate everything else?

If you need to twist things to accuse to show of no-homoing anything, the issue is not the show.

The very fact that you have to write a paragraph excusing every single no homo moment speaks for itself. The show tried to no homo several scenes, that's a fact. Yuri did say that his love for Victor was platonic. Victor literally said the kiss was a surprise kiss. The rings were called charms. Is the homo interpretation still possible? Yes. But at the same time the show gave plenty of reasons to the no homo crowd to no homo the show.

Pointing how things actually are is not excusing. But whatever, keep making things up (the word platonic was never even mentioned once) if that makes you happy.
