I'm sure it'll still be good but I'm disappointed they're going to be having a tournament. The lack of a club or tournament like structure made it a fairly unique sports anime, plus since skateboarding can also just be used as transport the way they could just casually include skateboarding alongside every day things is part of what really made me love the show. It was mostly about the characters and their relations as they grow closer and also better at skating, and the way they can do casual things like the cast skating to their Inn or having a race to the hot springs made it feel more down to earth and mellow. I just really liked the more personal simple aspects of the show. But if it becomes a tournament then it's gonna stop having all the little SoL aspects I enjoy so much, it had such a good balance of that kind of stuff up till now.
LOL, your opinion is wrong!

Not sure what the h*ck was going on in the last half of the episode, but I enjoyed the fanservice. Cherry Blossom was looking delicious on the beach.

So we got the obligatory beach episode, this episode didn't do much to advance the story but you can't deny the fun that came from it.
it was fun but a filler episode and there is no character development

Greate filler (?) episode, that moment when Langa was praying before opening the toilet door, I feel that one...

Also obligatory Gigguk ref: “TOOOOOOUUUUUUURNAMENT AAAAAAARRC!!” next week!

It was very disappointing. If previous episodes all were 10 out of 10, this one was 4 at most. Total filler full of unnecessary fanservice. If the whole anime was like this from the start, I would never even consider watching it, so distasteful it is.

How was there no character development? They literally had a scene of Reki wanting to get better, improve & not be lagging behind.

They nailed this episode!!!! Real healing & calming to watch & full of laughter. Miya pretending Joe was his dad was hilarious!! Reki & Langa as endearing as always ♡ I love how Langa is always looking out for Reki. Best bros!!!!

Pretty great episode! Also was super fun and hilarious. A beach and onsen episode in one episode, we are evolving lmao.

All the characters were really entertaining this episode. Even with all the fun the show gave Reki some pretty good characterization, he doesn't wanna get left behind, given how Langa is insanely improving. I really hope he gets his moment eventually, all those L's he's gotten will pay off.

I peaked that thousand years of death reference lmao, that was great. Let's go, we are getting a T o u r n a m e n t A r c. Looking forward to the next episode.

Totally agree! That's what people were asking all the time; yet now that we got it, someone has to complain lmao

Anyway, one of the funniest beach episodes ever for me! I literally love everyone from the main cast, they're all so damn hilarious. I also liked the little talk between Reki and Joe and the setup for his development. The next couple of episodes are probably gonna be a turning point for the story; I hope they won't disappoint because they're surprisingly nailing every episode!

That was... eh. I don't care enough about these characters to enjoy a filler with them. Though I did find Langa praying before walking into bathrooms and Miya pretending to be Joe's son amusing.

At least the fujoshi part wasn't a big part of this. Shadow in a speedo is cruse material by the way. Anyway this episode was fun and somehow still advances the plot while giving us a clue as who could have snitch on S. This is getting good. I don't know about a tournament arc with six episodes though. that could make things messy. The show is fun as shit though. I did like the Naruto reference at least. The show knows how to have fun and you can sense the chemistry between our main guys.

Edit: I forgot to mention I am liking the show isn't forgetting about Reki. They could easily make this about Langa but they choose not to as this journey is a shared one not a singular one.

There has been character development for Shadow, Langa, Miya, and Reki. LOL! I won't say this show is Ghost in the Shell deep but there is depth here. The writing is really tight.

Dang, I haven't laughed this hard at an anime episode in a while. XD So freaking funny!!
I'm truly pleasantly surprised at this Anime, it's the one I look forward to the most this season.
The interactions between the characters are so natural and endearing. It's refreshing to see friendships instead of relationships.

Lots of fun watching this episode (when Reki did the 1000 years of death to Shadow I was crying laughing). Just not much progress in the story so I'm waiting for the next one to see some more action.

Every episode puts me in a good mood :) I loved how it was a combination of Beach/slice of life and then thriller/comedy.

The gang kept blocking Joe from his romantic endeavors (Miya's "papa" prank was too funny.) He's a real playboy, huh.

Langa doing the cross as he entered the bathroom each time xD

Though he wasn't on the vacation, I was happy to see glimpses of Adam in the episode.

Fun episode, but not much that seems like it'll be hugely relevant in the long-term besides the introduction of the policewoman.

I suppose a tournament arc was the next logical step from here, for better or worse. Hopefully they can spice it up with a new location to skate in.

A fun episode, with some great animation accompanied by equally great music.

I'm glad it took at least one moment for Reki to reflect somewhat. Seeing him ask Joe for help was good, especially when he expressed that he didn't want to get left behind. I just think it's too bad that it wasn't really elaborated on.

It's too bad it seems to be leaning on BL jokes, hopefully they get rid of that now that a tournament arc is coming up. Can't stand that garbage.

really loved this episode, probably the best one yet! they are very much inducing the reki x langa ship despite the beginning? :') doubtful that it will actually lead to something substantial which makes me very sad lol

oh and reki reflected on his skateboarding finally, which is great. we also see him finally address langa's skill in comparison to his albeit in a thought

So no ones going to talk about how Langa grabbed Reki's hand and stepped on his skateboard to stop him from falling? Similarly to how Adam stepped on their skateboards before? 👀

Chill and absolutely hilarious episode. Miya calling JOE "Papa" and Langa making the cross sign every time he entered a toilet room just killed me xD

On a different note, I kinda want flower shop lady to notice Shadow's feelings.

I'm bisexual, but I'm only romantically interested in guys. Being bisexual doesn't mean that you're equality interested in both genders.

???? Okay? I am bi as well and I am in fact equality interested in both genders lmao, each person is a world but it has nothing to do with my comment.

You just assumed he was straight because he flirted with some girls, right? And then you looked sad because he wasn't gay. I'm just telling you bisexual people exist, he doesn't need to be straight or gay and so he can be interested in both women and men and flirt with whoever he wants to

Being "equally interested" in both genders is rare. Most bi people I know heavily prefer one gender over the other. I'm more sexually attracted to women, but I'm only romantically attracted to men, so I could only be in a relationship with a guy.

Anyway, this conversation is over.

What, what is rare? I don't care at all about the gender of the other person lmao, I am attracted to people in general... When I like someone I don't care if they are a man or a woman :/ And you shouldn't go and tell someone their romantic interests are rare??? This isn't even rare LOL. I would never critic yours.

However it is obvious what I was saying, Joe can flirt with girls and still be interested in men as well, I don't see why you keep talking about yourself. Joe can be bisexual and be more or less attracted to women/men, but still interested in both since, indeed, bisexual means that :)

Wow, this episode was so fun. I never thought I was going to laugh so hard. So many funny scenes I just can't pick only one.

Shadow is a nice surprise. He is such a good guy taking care of his 'lil brothers' hahahah.

I loved to see the boys skating just for fun. Beach vibe was ideal for that moment.

The part that Miya pretended to be Joe's kid was hilarious hahahah. Poor Joe XD.

And the mud guys were so weird but so entertaining. I can't wait for the next episode.

Honestly, I regret talking about how Reki was side charactering hard because now that it's switched focus on him and showed how he feels about the situation, it hurts too much to bear,, There are so many ways things could go from here and half of them turn out sad :') Other than that, this episode was great, I loved Miya acting like Joe's son LOLOL

That was some hilariously relaxing episode 🤣

Everyone crashing on Cherry's hotel for food XD

And Langa's reaction after looking at those toilets was so relatable ≧∇≦

When Miya just went and called Joe “Papa”, Miya's in a whole different level 🤣

Adam did that tapping again, that Kiriko's reaction is literally everyone's reaction...

“You're a lot more amazing than I am” It's obvious that Reki would feel that way, but it's a good thing that he's not giving up.
