What Can We Expect From ‘Yuri On Ice’ Season 2?
We cannot say anything right now with 100% certainty, but we can definitely think of the second season’s possible plot. The second season will be more about exploring the relationship between Yuri Katsuki and Victor since they are no more just a coach and trainee. Their relationship might be more evolved and mature full of ups and downs. We also can see Victor competing himself with Yuri on the next Grand Prix despite the fact that he serves as Yuri’s mentor. If this happens, then it will be a much more dramatic situation where the trainee will have to stand opposite to his teacher. All this can only be confirmed when the second installment of Yuri on Ice comes out.
Do We Have Any Teaser For ‘Yuri On Ice’ Season 2?
Actually, yes. A teaser clip for ‘Yuri On Ice’ Season 2 was spotted on the Blu-ray of the first series in which fans can see Russian Yuri showing off skills and performing a new skating routine. However, this wasn’t enough to tell or give an idea about their storyline, but we can presume the rivalry between the two Yuri’s will continue to be a factor in Yuri On Ice Season 2.
