ahh that sounds nice... and the novel!sara was pretty much someone you can't exactly hate either. i felt everyone was more three dimensional in the novel...

or idk, maybe i just couldn't stand yuuri (wow plz stop being the king if you're that blindingly... trusting). from the bits and pieces i've seen of the anime, i think they gave everyone but yuuri development, because i just wanted to facepalm at some of the episodes as the series went on on how much yuuri doesn't learn. the novel yuuri is still pretty gullible and makes mistakes as well, but he learns from them. whereas idk what anime!yuuri is doing anymore he just seems to be mostly the same all the time, and rather being less kingly.

which is totally a shame because kkm has such a great cast and music and potential to be epic
