I just really love how Reki was the one who talks to Miya after he lost to Langa because in addition to Miya getting the support he needs after living without friends for so long, we also really get to see the kind of big brother Reki is, plus the kindhearted and protective energy in that scene is just so sweet
Miya is in his own head after the beef, and getting more upset with things, and Reki flicks him in the face to bring him out of it and have a heart to heart with him that basically refutes everything negative he’d been thinking for the last who knows how long. Then, after Miya’s brought to tears by Reki’s words and Langa’s appreciation and tries to hide it, Reki goes full big brother mode on him, squishing his face and making silly sounds to get him to smile
(which you just know he did to his younger sister and what he currently does to his littlest twin sisters when they’re upset, and all that’s missing is a gentle “I won’t stop until I see that smile!”).
Then Reki activates his protective big brother mode with zero hesitation as soon as Adam says Miya has nothing left. When Miya deflates, Reki immediately notices, and his eyes shift from the matador to him as he checks on him to see that yeah, Miya definitely isn’t okay after that disrespectful comment.
It just shows how much Reki cares about his friends and how protecting Miya (who in such a short time is arguably considered to be at little brother status at that point) isn’t even a question for him—it’s just second nature and a given.
He immediately tells Adam to apologize and then challenges him to a beef to get Miya’s apology. It was already bad enough that Miya lost but just when he managed to get him to smile, here comes an adult—one of the prominent S members, for that matter—crushing him by telling him he had nothing left. And Reki does what he can to help because he doesn’t want anyone making a kid feel bad by basically calling them worthless, especially his new little brother.
I’m rambling but I really appreciate how Reki goes from arguing with Miya to protecting him at all costs like a true big brother.

This one had me DEAD💀💀
Strong female characters deserve happy endings. Strong female characters can be in love and still be powerful. Male producers/creators need to stop forcing female leads to lose their love interests for shock value.
Reki, messing up a trick: ah man I'm such an idiot, I really suck at this
Langa, rolling up his sleeves: alright that's it, nobody talks about my best friend that way
Reki: ....Langa it's me-
