Fanfiction Rec 12: Maelstrom

If Yuri!!! On Ice has taught me anything my readers, it is how fast a new fandom can be born, from the very first ep we had gushing fangirls and shippers jumping on board for the pairing that has been nicknamed Victuri and with the explosion of any new fandom on the internet you are …

Fanfiction Rec 11: Apples

Even the most avid of fanfiction readers will tell you, there is a lot of bad fanfiction out there. That was part of the reason why I started Fanfiction Rec here on Yaoi Playground. Some call it digging through the mud to find a gem but if I'm completely honest at times it can feel …

Yuri!!! on Ice – Anime Review

When the anime first started airing at the beginning of the Fall season, at first I could not get into the first episode and I almost dropped the series. It took me three attempts to watch the first episode, I think it was more a case of my own headspace getting in the way at …

(Edit: So glad i was wrong with my prediction and that Yuri!!! on Ice won anime for the year yay!!!) If I am completely honest, I am not surprised Yuri on Ice lost to Re:Zero for Anime of the Year 2016 over on Crunchyroll. All of us in the fujoshi fandom and elsewhere have loved the series …
