"Yuri On Ice" Season 2 has been on hiatus since the last episode of Season 1 ended in Dec. 2016 and the fans of the anime series are excited for the upcoming season. The uniqueness of the storyline as well as its approach on realistic issues in the series and the characters are only few of the reasons why the fans have been hooked to the anime series since the first episode. What's the latest update for "Yuri On Ice" Season 2? Will it be airing soon?

According to Mobipicker, "Yuri On Ice" Season 2 air date remains to be announced. However, the people behind "Yuri On Ice" Season 2 have not been incognito and in fact, have been considerate enough to give the fans updates every now and then.

According to reports, "Yuri On Ice" Season 2 co-creator, Mitsuro Kubo, has expressed her wishes for the sequel to be finished by 2017. With the given timeline, fans can expect "Yuri On Ice" Season 2 to be aired before 2017 ends or by early 2018.

During a special "Yuri On Ice" Season 2 event held last Feb. 11 in Japan, the fans were treated to a series marathon and a chance to mingle with the important people behind the series, including the creators and the voice actors. To commemorate the event, a group "selfie" featuring the major characters was released. In the said group photo, fans took a hint that "Yuri On Ice" Season 2 will feature more characters joining Yuri Plisetsky, Yuri Katsuki and Viktor Nikiforov, among others.

"Yuri On Ice" Season 2 spoilers also reveal that Yuri's past might be highlighted in the upcoming season. A visit to Yuri's past, or a back story, will definitely give the anime series a twist and will give the fans a better understanding on as to why Yuri has become the character that he is now.

However, there is still a big chance that "Yuri On Ice" Season 2 won't push through, as it is not a new thing for anime series to cease production after Season 1. According to Opp Trends, "Yuri On Ice" Season 1 finale has provided a good closure to the series. Do you think "Yuri On Ice" Season 2 will push through?
