History Characters / YuriOnIceHasetsuCitizensAndOtherCharacters

* RetiredBadass: She was a prima ballerina who was recognized internationally, and in Episode 2 we see a framed photo of her receiving the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prix_Benois_de_la_Danse Benois de la Danse]] award, one of the highest honors in the ballet world.

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: The Crunchyroll subtitles write it as "Maccachin", but official Japanese products favor "Makkachin."

* MultiethnicName: Her first name is Italian and her last name is a common family name in both China and Korea, meaning she's at least part-Asian or ethnically Asian (Canadian nationality-wise).

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: "Yuko" versus "Yuuko". Similarly to Yuri's name, "Yuuko" would be the more culturally correct spelling, but InUniverse it's romanized as "Yuko" (as seen in Episode 4 when Yurio gets a text from her on his phone).

* SurprisinglyGoodEnglish: Yuko's text to Yurio was sent in fluent English.

* OlderThanTheyLook: She's one of the few named characters whose exact age hasn't been revealed, but WordOfGod has stated that she's older than Yuri's mother Hiroko (who's 49 and calls Minako [[SenpaiKohai "senpai"]] since they went to school together), which would put her in her ''fifties''. Despite that, she looks younger than Yuri's sister Mari, who's 30.

* ParentsAsPeople: Hiroko and Toshiya are very loving and supportive parents towards Yuri, but they don't know much about figure skating (Toshiya is more of a soccer fan) and thus they aren't entirely able to help Yuri with his anxieties and how closely tied his self esteem is to the sport.
