Reki is such a good friend. I love how he's paying attention to all the little details to help build the best board possible for Langa. It's not just about skating, you can really tell how much he wants to support him, very wholesome episode.

La soledad de los genios me parece algo muy triste, sobre todo cuando viene desde un lugar lleno de envidia y celos, no puedo decir que no lo entienda, pero sinceramente uno siempre debería trabajar lo más que se pueda en sobreponerse a esos sentimientos podrías estar perdiendo a alguien super valioso por algo que es en esencia tu culpa. Por eso me gusta tanto Reki, claro el chico es enérgico y sabe un montón de skate, pero lo más importante es que ama el deporte, tanto que siente una profunda admiración por la habilidad de todos aun a sabiendas que él es terrible comparado con el resto. Aunque una parte de mi se pregunta si Reki es realmente tan malo o sencillamente siempre quiere competir por encima de su liga, porque a nivel capacidad parecía estar muy a la par de Shadow.

In one episode, the anime managed to tell us what Miya's character is all about, with snippets of his backstory, and how he reacts to Reki and Langa, we understood where he is coming from, a great storytelling. I really like how Reki is written too, not the best and not the worst, but he's so supportive and it's sweet. I do hope he'll gets a win tho! Overall a great episode, and once again wow'ed me with the animation during the skating scenes!

Episode Context

SK∞ shifts gears with the introduction of Miya Chinen, a young skating prodigy who brings a sharp edge of arrogance and a complicated relationship with trust. The episode hits a sweet spot between high-octane skateboarding action and genuine emotional texture, as Miya's challenge to Langa forces both characters to confront what competition and connection actually mean to them. Bones delivers fluid, kinetic race sequences that carry real weight, while quieter moments dig into why these characters skate in the first place. The tone balances the series' signature fun and energy with a more introspective undercurrent, expect to feel the rivalry but also the loneliness behind it. This is where SK∞ starts proving it has more on its mind than just cool tricks and neon-lit races.
