紫陽花の記憶

VICTOR FS (離れずにそばにいて) on YUURI FS (YURI ON ICE) music… 

Volume 4 of the yoi DVDs came with a special episode of the Yuri!!! on Radio, hosted by the seiyuu of Victor (Suwabe Junichi) and Chris (Yasumoto Hiroki), so I figured I’d isolate the most interesting and most relevant part of it and translate it for you guys.

If you’re looking for reasons to listen/read this, I can tell you that you’ll find out about the following:

whether anyone at Mappa died during the production of the anime

who wanted Stephane Lambiel’s autograph that he gave after recording his lines for the anime (and who ended up getting it)

the manga-format storyboards that Kubo drew for the anime and whether or not they will be published

how working on the anime changed Suwabe’s and Yasumoto’s way of looking at figure skating

their experiences (or lack thereof) with figure skating

their thoughts on Makkachin and poodles in general

their take on Georgi and Otabek

and their experiences with voicing their characters

I’m putting the translation under the cut because this thing is 16 minutes long and the translation won’t be short either. (If you’re on mobile and can’t see what’s under the cut, do tell me.)

Victor’s VA will be marked as (S)uwabe and Chris’s as (Y)asumoto. Without further ado, let’s get to it!
