OKAY I’M GOING TO RANT

spoilers

I KNEW IT. i knew it i knew it i knew it

I KNEW REKI WAS FEELING BAD ABOUT HIMSELF. i know these things. langa said that reki was amazing, and he thought in his head “you’re more amazing” and “you’re better than me”

MY FRIENDS. THAT IS THE START OF SELF-DOUBT. THAT IS THE START OF HAVING LOW SELF-ESTEEM. i would know because i’ve been there.

THAT’S WHY reki asked joe to teach him a move. even though it only lasted for a second I FUCKING KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN TO HIM

now i predict next episode: adam said he was going to hold a competition for who can do his love hug the best or something probably to lure langa out. reki’s going to be in it because he wants to prove to everyone that he’s not useless or whatever, or to prove that he’s just as useful as langa. then he goes missing

i don’t know how he’ll go missing but he’ll be mia for a while (evident from langa’s texts in the preview) which is all part of adam’s plan for langa to show his true colors

I TOLD YOU GUYS HE WAS FEELING SHIT ABOUT HIMSELF!!!! i want that to be explored more in depth in the series. i want that to be the focus next time, and not because i love angst but because i think it’s important to talk about and to show that there’s more to reki. THERE’S MORE TO HIM I JUST KNOW IT

^ i might be overthinking it and i might be delusional to want so much but i really hope i’m at least a little bit right, i will deadass write it if it doesn’t happen

I agree . Also Reki has to prove he deserves the right to be the protagonist.
