This show was fun at first cause you see characters having fun, but when they introduced ADAM as a psycho who will literally kill you just to win, them repeatedly saying "skating is fun" doesn't make sense anymore.

Why are they even in S in the first place? Isn't there another community or place where they could skate?

I'm hoping the finale will be them leaving S cause it doesn't make sense why they're still going to that place.

I'm hoping for the 'S getting disbanded' ending too.

And I had the same thought when Reki was literally getting beaten up and still said that skating is fun. Like dude you might die right now?? But I guess they all just love the thrill of it. The insane beefs with no rules and the crazy opponents. Regardless S feels like a toxic community (to me).

I don't think people watch SK8 for a good plot or something lol.
Most of the focus is clearly on making the characters look hot and appealing.
And making somewhat BL relationships between them.

There are so many plot holes in the story, like if Adam can beat others, why can't Joe or Reki do the same to Adam?
Reki literally hugs Adam, why not just hit him in the nuts and win? /s

I‘d say they have other morals. In S you can do everything you want basically even beat people and sabotage them (Adam, Shadow). The other main casts got other morals and surely don’t want to win like that.

You're right.
I was being sarcastic lmao.
To point out what OP and the other person said was completely right about S being toxic.
I'll add /s to my reply.

There is way too much focus on Reki and Langa being together. Cant they just be best friends? Like I get the hint in the langa and his mom conversation but I’d rather not force it
the show isn't really forcing it tho

True I get what you mean it’s just the fandom sometimes but it’s not like a problem or anything it’s just what I thought
also why do they have to just be best friends??

I think that they wanted to show a dark side of S, hence Adam being a fucking nut job. But I think that Langa will win against Adam and red haired policewoman will come and arrest the guy.

A community where people will actually bully and humiliate you and skaters who won’t hesitate to injure you in any way they can without any consequences. Does this seem like a healthy place to enjoy your hobby? To the characters it might but for me as a non skater it definitely doesn’t.

Toxic might not be the correct word for it but that’s the closest I could think of.

Keep in mind that is something only Reki says. No one else really says that. One character's opinion doesn't mean everyone shares that opinion. Remember Shadow acts like a fucking pro wrestling heel for example.

I don't think S is toxic but how skating really is. Skating is underground as shit even with some of the media props. I don't think S is toxic but a place where people can truly be themselves. I do agree that they should move on from S, not because it is toxic or anything like that but because it is being setup to be disbanded as that chick is going to expos Anosuke/ADAM.

Also they need to leave S if they want this show to get a second season.

I do actually as the plot has been quite good. I Don't know about S being toxic.
I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon.

Even more ridiculous when he straight up uses his board as a bat and calls it a "technique"... Are you fucking kidding me? The writing in this show is hilariously bad. I just watch it cause I really like skating and SOME of the characters. Wish it wouldn't be about a race but tricks instead. Would be more fun to watch imo.

i think it will be good if season 1 finishes with them leaving s and going to next community, for me it would be perfect ending of season 1 and it opens availability for season 2
