Yuri!!! on Ice is a Fall 2016 anime that, surprisingly, has nothing to do with the yuri genre, so if you're looking for that, you may want to look elsewhere. The show follows Yuri Katsuki, a 23-year-old Japanese figure skater who returns home after a nerve-induced dead-last loss at the figure skating World Grand Prix, unsure of if he wants to continue skating or not. For years, he's dreamed of skating on the same ice as his long-time idol, Russian skater Viktor Nikiforov, but the dream seems impossible now after his loss. One day he goes to the local ice rink and performs a flawless imitation of Nikiforov's latest routine; unbeknownst to him, his skating has been recorded and becomes a viral hit on the internet, where it catches the eye of none other than Nikiforov himself. With no warning, Nikiforov shows up at Yuri's family hot spring resort, declaring that he will coach Yuri to victory. Yuri!!! on Ice simulcasts on Crunchyroll on Wednesdays at 3pm ET, with a simuldub by Funimation beginning on October 24 at 10pm ET.
A new animated movie based on the series has been announced! No details yet, but it will not be a compilation of the series. source
