apparently Yuri on Ice found it's first imitator

its called "Spirit Pact" and it's based on a Chinese webcomic apparently

 

 

 

apperently long story short two guys become some kind of battle partners (like you'd see in a shonen manga) and end up falling in love, or at least that's what it looks like

 

in theory it could also count as the Gay Naruto rip-off I've been waiting for but I dunno if it's similar to Naruto at all

IIRC this premiered in China before YoI did it in Japan.

Judging by what I've heard about it, Spiritpact can't hold a candle to my favorite figure skating dorks.

it doesn't look great, the animation is crummy and from what I understand it played a very strong "will they or won't they" game

 

I'm just happy there's another Gay anime, gives me hope Yoi won't be the last Gay romance anime we see

Main character is a jerk who dies in the first episode, and has to make a pact with someone living in order to stick around.

 

It was a bad first episode.

yeah I've heard the show is somewhat crappy, I'm just excited because it's another Gay anime and there's a shortage of them
