Hot SK8 the Infinity Reki Kyan & Langa Hasegawa Figure Acrylic Stand Model
Even though they only recently met during school, the two quickly became really close and spend most of their time together. Reki teaches Langa how to skateboard which they both find a mutual enjoyment in. Reki cares greatly about the safety of Langa and has nightmares about him getting hurt. He enjoys spending time with his best friend, on the roof of the school, at work, at his house, skatepark or at “S”—wherever Reki is, Langa is too.
Reki notices every detail of Langa and his skating which shows he knows exactly what to do to fix his board. Langa refers to Reki as amazing and Reki doesn’t believe it and says that Langa is more amazing. Showing that Reki knows the skill level difference between them and wants to catch up to stand by his friends. Langa shows extra concern for Reki when he was going to try a trick with a hurt arm and scolded him. They deeply care for each other. During the beef skate to the hot springs Langa realizes that Reki was not there with them and he goes back to find him. He also helps Reki find his balance again after slipping when the Pantu poked his legs.
Reki sees Langa as an amazing genius which he wants to catch up to him in every way. Later on, Reki sees himself in a negative light among the star ‘Snow’ and he tries to reach for the stars like Langa can but he cannot reach it leading to the fight at the end of the episode where Reki and Langa split their own way. Reki sees himself as not good enough for Langa and fearing being left behind he chooses to be the one to leave. Reki also feels betrayed by Langa going against their promise of facing Adam and is deeply hurt from it.
Reki still hurt by Langa’s actions but still continues to support him. Langa and Reki were in class and Reki was looking in the window and caught wind of Langa’s face and feels hurt by hurting him. He comes to S to support Langa indirectly trying to hide from him; but Langa was excited because he knew he was there from when he stopped by Reki’s house and saw the window open. Before his race he searches for the red head in which leads the red head to hide.
Reki and Langa rekindle their friendship
Langa sees him and feels encouraged and passionate about skating in a way he hadn’t when Reki wasn’t with him. Reki cannot stand when people bash Langa which is shown in when he yells at the people he’s standing with who were talking bad at Langa. When he saw Langa seem so not like himself he took it upon himself to call out for him, to wake him up out of his slump; leading Langa to catch up and win the race. But it lead to the final breaking point of Reki realizing he wants to stand with his friend rather than be his support and he turned in his ‘S’ badge at the same time Langa tried to find him to fix his board, and their relationship.
After talking to multiple people and having time to rethink everything, Reki realizes that skating is about fun rather than competition and is determined to find Langa to apologize to him. When he returns home, one of his sisters informs him that Langa stopped by and took his board, making Reki immediately run out and look for Langa. When he finally finds him at the skatepark, he’s lost for words, and Langa suggests to just skate instead. Langa then proceeds to tell him how he feels when he skates with him, making Reki blush, and say how much more he wants to skate with Langa.
Reki has taken a big brother role for Miya, trying to teach him he has to have fun to skate because it’s not worth skating without having fun. He is protective of him seen when he challenges Adam to a beef to defend Miya. Even though Reki lost Miya still upgraded Reki from a ‘Slime’ to a ‘Golem’ showing his respect for him grew. They enjoys each others company and teasing each other. Reki promises to always be there for Miya which makes the younger happy due to the lack of consistent friends in his life.
Miya notices the small changes in Reki and voices his concern, when he asked Langa where Reki is. It is seen that Miya’s love language is teasing and after the words of others Reki takes Miya’s words to heart and degrade himself. Miya is shown worrying about Reki when he hadn’t seen Reki come to ‘S’ for a while and seeing the distraught out of place entity Langa has become in the wake of Reki’s absences.
Miya expresses his anger and hurt towards Reki leading towards a confrontation in the elevator of the hospital which lead to Miya being even more angry at Reki.
