The Medalist Film Is Set for February 2027. Our Entire Ice Skating Shelf Is Three Episodes
Of the 33 entries we tag Ice Skating or Ice Sports, exactly one states a free episode count. On the wider seinen shelf of 1,146 entries, two of the 32 stated counts are wrong, and we checked both today.

The Medalist film, which continues the story told in the television series, has a teaser trailer and key art, and it is set to open on 19 February 2027, as Anime Corner reports. Our index holds three Medalist entries: the 2025 television series at 13 episodes, a second season recorded at 9, and the film. All three pages were requested today and returned successfully, and not one states a free episode count.
The ice shelf is 33 entries
We apply the tags "Ice Skating" or "Ice Sports" to 33 entries, the three Medalist pages among them. They span 1993 to 2026, and eight carry the KING OF PRISM or Pretty Rhythm names. All 33 were requested today and none failed to load. Exactly one of them states a free episode count: Yuri!!! on ICE, at 3 episodes. 31 of the 33 carry no episode source row of any kind.
Three is where that run stops. We record the series at 12 episodes. The channel is Crunchyroll, which carries a YouTube verified badge. All three uploads resolved today, their titles reading Episode 1 through Episode 3 against the numbers we store. Each watch page reports an authored English subtitle track beside an automatic Japanese caption: Japanese audio with real English subtitles. Each runs 1,415 seconds against a recorded 24 minutes, and the rows carry no country restriction.
Two wrong numbers on the wider shelf
We record all three Medalist entries as seinen, a shelf of 1,146 entries, all requested today, none failing. 32 state a free episode count, 308 episodes between them, and 19 of the 32 state exactly one. 1,037 carry no episode source row at all.
Two of the 32 numbers are wrong, and we checked both today. The Lupin the 3rd page states 23 free episodes, but every live row behind it is an upload titled LUPIN THE 3rd PART 4, a different entry in our index, and the numbering is out too: our episode 2 is that channel's episode 4, our 3 is its 7, our 5 is its 1. The Atashin'chi page states 173, and the episode numbers in its uploads' own titles do not match the slots we file them under: two sit in our episode 1 slot, two more in our episode 5. Set both aside and 30 entries and 112 episodes remain.
Two runs a reader can finish
Umamusume: Cinderella Gray states 13 free episodes against a recorded 13, so the run reaches the last one. We tag it Drama and Sports, and its channel, It's Anime powered by REMOW, carries a YouTube verified badge. Episodes 1, 6 and 13 resolved today, their titles carrying S1:E1, S1:E6 and S1:E13 against our numbers, each with an authored English subtitle track beside an automatic Japanese caption.
Brave 10 states 12 against a recorded 12, from Anime! on TMS Official Channel, which also carries a YouTube verified badge. Episodes 1 and 12 resolved, their titles reading EP01 and EP12 against our numbers, and both pages report only an automatic Japanese caption track with no authored English subtitle track. The uploads' titles say English Sub, so that is the channel's own label and we have nothing stronger. Every row for both lists the United States, and that is where every figure here was requested.
