#episode 9.5

Miya and Shadow canonically think that “S” isn’t the same without Reki

The way their hair switches in the negative~

What she says: I'm fine

What she really means: Reki and Langa are literally making me cry 24/7. Here you fuckin see Reki is struggling so much with his passion for skateboarding and his feelings of getting left behind by the talented people around him. He found a curious boy who in only a few days matched his love for his sport/hobby and he taught him everything he knows and then that boy really went on to surpass him in such a short amount of time and he doesnt begrudge him of it. In fact it just really brought to the forefront feelings of inadequacy that were there in the beginning and now he's being confronted with thoughts of "I'm really not good enough to even be around you". And none of the other guys can even really understand because theyre amazing and he really is getting left behind. And then you have Langa, who has very few people in his life. Who equates the joy and thrill of the sport with the people brought it in his life. Who thinks the world of Reki. His best friend who brought back his heartbeat, who specially made him a skateboard that fits him so personally, who encourages him and introduced him to new sights and a new way of flying. And then he just loses it all without explanation and he just doesnt understand what happened and he feels so unbalanced after Reki's presence left him. And so now we just have two pining idiots who are in love with each other but have 0 communication skills and should really just kiss kiss fall in love, you know what I mean.

So...episode 9.5 huh...

And I thought I hated those palm tr*es...

[cvrsecaster]

I just thought of some effed up theory.

So we are getting episode 9.5 before 10. What if that’s some kind of messed up filler episode of Reki dreaming of the outcome of the race. And in the outcome Langa gets hurt real bad...but at the very end he just wakes up in bed since he left the skate place.

Then episode 10 is back to reality ~ with Langa at his house with his broken skateboard

LMAO my head at 1am is great.

If you’re the kind of person to harass the animators because we’re getting a recap this week, please let me know so I can block you.

I’m impatient too but we’re getting the new episode next week, and animators need a break too. I bet they’ve been working hard for us to have something to enjoy.

You’re telling me that Joe tossed Cherry into the ocean in episode 6 and we didn’t get to fucking see it?!

Shadow and Miya about Cherry:
