Y: Don't go! Stay here!
V: Yakov, you were the best coach I ever had.
V: You always will be.
Y: If you walk away now, you can never come back!
V: Dasvidaniya.
V: I'm sorry I can't do as you say this time.
Y: You don't get to say that when you've never done as I said in the first place!
V: You should come visit Japan, Yakov.

Minako: Everything's wrong!
Minako: There's a rumor that Victor's going to be Yuri's coach!
YMom: Oh, Vicchan's here already.

Y: I'm in a bit of a slump right now,
Y: but I'm a top figure skater certified by the JSF!
Y: Back home for the first time in five years, I was thinking of how to keep my career going...
Y: when my idol, Victor, suddenly appeared!
Y: I'm still in denial that this is actually happening!
Y: By the way, Victor Nikiforov is a living legend in figure skating.
Y: I never dreamed he'd be interested in me, but...
V: Starting today, I'm your coach.
V: I'll make you win the Grand Prix Final.
Y: What is he saying, standing there buck naked?
Minako: Yuri!
News: Why is Victor sleeping in one of the inn's robes?!
Y: He soaked in the hot spring and had dinner, then fell asleep...
Minako: It's big news in Russia.
Minako: He's taking next season off and is considering his next move.
Minako: They're also saying that when he saw the video of you skating his routine,
Minako: he was struck with inspiration, and that's when he decided to be your coach.
Y: Huh?
Minako: Victor came here because he chose you, Yuri.
Minako: You brought him here!
Minako: That's incredible!
Yuri: Huh?
Yuri: Victor went to Japan to become Yuri Katsuki's coach?
Yuri: Why that fatso?
Yuri: Did he forget what he promised me?
Yuri: Yakov! Where are you?
Yuri: Explain this to me, damn it!
Y: Victor wants to take time off until he finds his motivation again.
Y: Personally, I doubt he'll be able to return if he takes a break now.
News: He's going to coach Katsuki Yuri in Japan—
Y: That man only thinks of himself!
Y: He'll never be anyone's coach!

V: Hungry...
Y: Huh?
Y: He still wants to eat?
Y: Um, what would you like to eat?
V: Hmm...
V: As your coach, I'd like to know what your favorite food is, Yuri.
Y: What?
V: Wow! Amazing!
YMom: Our specialty, the pork cutlet bowl, extra-large!
V: Vkusno!
V: Delicious! Too good for words!
V: Is this what God eats?!
Y: I'm glad you like it.
Minako: Yuri gains weight easily,
Minako: so he was only allowed to eat it when he won a competition. Right?
V: Oh? So have you eaten this pork cutlet bowl recently?
Y: Yes, yes.
Y: I eat it often.
V: Why?
V: You haven't won anything.
V: With that pig's body of yours,
V: lessons would be meaningless.
V: You need to get back to your weight at last year's Grand Prix Final, at the least...
V: or I can never coach you.
V: Until then, no more pork cutlet bowls.
V: Okay, little piggy?
Y: Huh?
Y: I feel like I should be offended...
YSis: Hey, this luggage is in the way.
V: Can you take it to the room where I'll be staying?
YYSis: Staying?
V: Wow! What a classic, tiny room.
V: Is there a sofa?
Y: No...
Y: I'm sorry it's so small. We only had an unused banquet room available.
V: You look anxious.
V: You can pay the coaching fee after you achieve success!
V: I'll bill you later.
Y: Th-Thank you.
V: Yuri, tell me everything about you.
V: What kind of rink do you skate at?
V: What's in this city?
V: Is there a girl you like?
V: Before we start practicing,
V: let's build some trust in our relationship.
V: What? Why are you running away?
Y: Uh, no reason...
Y: I'm still scared to be close to him.
V: Yuri, let's sleep together.
V: As your coach, there's so much I need to learn about you.
Y: No!
V: Yuri!
V: Yuri!
V: Yuri?
Y: We've barely ever spoken
Y: because I always put him on such a high pedestal,
Y: and now he's right here...
Y: I get it now.

Nishi: Okay, sure!
Nishi: I'll talk to the higher-ups.

Y: Yeah...

Y: Victor, four years my senior, was already number one in the world.

Yakov: If you can't follow orders, then quit!
V: Yakov!
V: You should praise him more.
Yakov: Don't butt in! It's none of your business!
V: I used to get scolded for doing that, too.
V: You can win, even without quads.
V: I'd bet money on it.

Kids: Right!
Yuri: He promised me first that he'd choreograph a program for me.
Yuri: What about you?
Y: Huh? We haven't gotten to talking about programs or anything.
Yuri: What?!
Yuri: You make him take a whole year off, and to do what?
Yuri: Isn't getting him as a coach enough?
Yuri: As if a guy who'd sob in a toilet stall at the Grand Prix Final
Yuri: can change at all just by getting Victor as a coach!
Y: He's...
Yuri: Just retire already.
Y: He's totally underestimating me.
Yuri: Stop smirking, fatso!
Y: I don't really get the whole picture, so you should ask him yourself.
Y: Victor came all the way to Hasetsu because he wanted to.
Y: Just to become my coach.
Yuri: Huh?
Yuri: Those moves...
Yuri: They're for the short program Victor was practicing for next season.
Y: What?
Yuri: Victor was already putting together routines for next season.
Yuri: But he was really torn.
Yuri: Surprising the audience has always been his top priority.
Yuri: He had the whole world in his hands.
Yuri: But now, no matter what he does, no one's surprised anymore.
Yuri: He knows that better than anyone.
Yuri: If you don't have any inspiration left, you're as good as dead.
Yuri: If he's going to take next season off,
Yuri: I wonder if he'll let me use his program.
Yuri: I know I can surprise people more.
Yuri: I need Victor's help if I'm going to make my senior debut
Yuri: and win the Grand Prix Final.
Y: Huh? Win?
Yuri: You look like you're doing great, Victor!
V: Yuri, you're here?
V: I'm surprised Yakov let you come.
V: What do you want?
V: Judging from that look,
V: I'm guessing I forgot some promise I made.
Sign : Welcome, Victor! Welcome Back, Katsuki Yuri
V: Sorry, sorry.
V: I totally forgot.
V: But you knew I was the forgetful type, right?
Yuri: Yeah, I'm painfully aware of that.
Yuri: But a promise is a promise!
Yuri: You'll choreograph my new program, Victor!
Yuri: Let's go back to Russia!
V: Okay, I've decided!
V: Tomorrow, I'll choreograph a program for both of you
V: to the same music I'm using in my short program.
Yuri: Huh?! The same music as him?!
Y: What?! With the same choreography?!
V: No, this piece has several different arrangements.
V: I was trying to decide which one to use.
V: I'll think of a different program for each of you, of course.
V: I'll reveal the programs in one week!
V: You'll compete to see who can surprise the audience more!
Y: Whoa! Let's take a step back here.
Y: I don't want to be punished for losing...
Yuri: Victor will do whatever the winner says!
Yuri: If those are the terms, I'm in!

Minako: I usually go along with him.
Minako: Ice Castle lets him skate anytime if it's not booked already.
Minako: Yuri was able to grow because he had a place
Minako: where he could practice alone whenever he got anxious.
Minako: He's no genius,
Minako: but he was gifted with more free time than anyone else to practice.
Nishi: He's always come here to practice by himself.
Yuko: It always made me think he really loved skating.
Yuko: He didn't even play with his friends.
Nishi: Well, he was never very good at making them.
Nishi: Skating aside, he's not good at putting himself out there.
Nishi: I don't want this to be the end for him.
Yuko: Me, neither.
Yuko: He actually hates losing.
Yuko: I hope Victor will bring out a side of Yuri-kun that we've never seen before.

Y: And then I'll aim for the Grand Prix Final!
V: First, let's have you two listen to the music.
V: This piece comes in two arrangements, each with a different theme.
V: "On Love: Eros and Agape."
V: Have you ever thought about love?
Yuri: Nope.
V: All right.
V: Then what do you feel when you listen to this music?
Y: It's very clear and innocent,
Y: like someone who doesn't know what love is yet.
Yuri: I don't like this piece.
Yuri: This innocence crap makes me wanna barf.
V: Okay.
Y: It's like a completely different song.
Yuri: Victor!
Yuri: I want to skate to this one!
V: The first piece is "On Love: Agape."
V: The theme is unconditional love.
V: And this piece is "On Love: Eros."
V: The theme is sexual love.
V: I'll have you two skate to these opposing themes.
V: This is how I'm assigning them.
V: Yuri, you'll skate to "Eros"!
V: Yurio, you'll skate to "Agape"!
Y: What?!
Yuri: Switch them! That piece isn't me at all!
V: You have to do the opposite of what people expect.
V: How else will you surprise them?
V: That's my motto.
V: Actually, you're both far more ordinary and mediocre than you think.
V: You need to be more self-aware.
V: I'm surprised you think you can choose your own image.
V: From the audience's perspective, you're just a piglet and a kitten.
