"reki is a boring mc because he's not crazy good at skating, while langa is. langa should be the mc"
erm ackshually 🤓☝that's the whole point of reki's character development. he's medicore at skating but still finds passion in it, and he loves teaching langa the basics. however, when its clear that langa is a whole lot better even as a rookie and no one is paying attention to reki, he starts becoming depressed and his negative thoughts drive him away from his friends, especially langa. he thinks that since langa is so good and everyone loves him, no one needs him around anymore. his main character role in this anime is based off "a side character" for a reason, and even though the show is about skateboarding, it does a great and informative deep dive into depression. reki is a mc that has deep character development, and i see him as one of the best mcs in anime, even though the show isn't as popular as one piece or demonslayer.
also, if reki was really good at skating, then people would call him a basic and boring mc. double standards.
