Sk8 The Infinity takes you to the colorful and thrilling world of skateboarding and this is probably the only sports anime about skateboarding. I personally haven’t watched any anime specifically about the same sport. This was something new and fans really loved this concept. The anime itself is super short, having 12 episodes only.
To give you a bit of context here, Sk8 The Infinity tells us the story of Reki Kyan who is obsessed with skateboarding. At night, he visits “S”, which is an underground space for all the skateboarders to compete against each other.
Now, Reiki ends up injuring his arm and destroying his skateboard while competing. Hence, making him incapable of skateboarding for a while. That’s when he comes across his new classmate, Langa, and urges him to try skateboarding. Langa agrees and they both head to S. While Langa doesn’t have any experience with skateboarding, he turns out to be exceptionally good at it.
Reiki and Langa come across a bunch of other skateboarders and form a bond with them. Though, there’s one person who has his eyes on the skateboarding prodigy, Langa.
Relevant to the short narrative, we’ll be talking about some of the most powerful quotes from Sk8 The Infinity. Are you ready? Let’s go!
QUOTES FROM SK8 THE INFINITY THAT WILL INSPIRE YOU
Reki Kyan Quotes
1. No one knows the answer to the meaning of true happiness.
– Reki Kyan, Sk8 the Infinity
Reiki is so cheerful and positive all the time. Except for a few instances and I won’t be spoiling it for you. You need to watch this anime in order to find out about them. His character is so beautiful and realistic. I personally like his character the most in this anime.
Anyway, about the quote, people are always chasing happiness. There’s no definite answer to the meaning of true happiness. However, I personally feel like true happiness comes with self-mastery.
2. Skating is a lot more fun when you skate together with someone else.
– Reki Kyan, Sk8 the Infinity
This statement is so true, not only for skateboarding but also for every other activity. We’re already aware of how obsessed Reki is with skateboarding. But he’s not a lone wolf. He doesn’t want to do it alone. He made a bunch of friends through skateboarding. And he wants to experience the joy and thrill of skateboarding with everyone else.
3. To be popular with girls? To be respected? Of course, I’m sure that for many that’s what happiness is. But none of them is my happiness. I know… what my happiness is.
– Reki Kyan, Sk8 the Infinity
My boy here disregarded all the superficial sources of happiness. He’s true about people being happy because of superficial things. However, Reiki’s source of happiness is something else. Can you guys guess? Of course, it’s having fun with his loved ones. Skateboarding makes Reki happy and he wants to do it with the ones he’s close to.
4. Skating is infinite.
– Reki Kyan, Sk8 the Infinity
Of course! Skating for Reki is his infinite source of fun and happiness. This quote also indicates that Reki wants to skateboard infinitely!
Langa Hasegwa Quotes
1. I always realize the things after I lose them.
– Langa Hasegawa, Sk8 the Infinity
Langa and Reki had some situations where things turned out to be pretty ugly. After a while, Langa realizes his mistake. Even though it wasn’t a big one, he decides to make up with Reki and clear up the misunderstanding between them. Langa is such a cutie, to be honest!
2. You can’t have an argument if you don’t have someone to argue against, either.
– Langa Hasegawa, Sk8 the Infinity
This is from Langa’s race with Adam. Here, he’s trying to make Adam realize how lonely he is.
Joe Quotes
1. Overconfidence is a prison, but confidence brings power.
– Joe, Sk8 the Infinity
Joe sensei talking some sense into all of us! This is a very meaningful quote. Overconfidence is never a good choice. Natural confidence makes one exude natural magnetism. Therefore, it is more powerful.
2. Meals are tastier when you eat with a bunch of people.
– Joe, Sk8 the Infinity
Now, I can confirm the accuracy of this statement told by Joe sensei. A lot of you agree with this. The anime really puts great emphasis on friendships and the importance of forming bonds with each other, which I absolutely love!
Adam Quotes
1. It may not be a tasty ingredient, but depending on how much effort you put into it, it can be somewhat tasty.
– Adam, Sk8 the Infinity
While Adam might have a really twisted personality, he’s right about a few things he has to say, just like this one. How sweet the end result becomes depends upon the amount of effort you put into it.
2. Terror is the best spice. Take your time and savor it.
– Adam, Sk8 the Infinity
That is one spicy and savory quote right there! Adam loves terrorizing his targets. He seems to be a sadist, enjoying the sufferings of others. He really enjoyed terrorizing Reki when he first competed with him. Every guy he competes against goes to the hospital because he’s really wild with skateboarding. His way of thinking really is twisted!
3. Friends are there only to betray you.
– Adam, Sk8 the Infinity
Adam was a sad man. He needed some healing. There was an incident in the past that made him feel that way. He was a cheerful kid before. However, one should be able to trust again. If he doesn’t, he’ll stay lonely forever. We all should definitely be careful in choosing friends though. The right ones will never betray you.
Tadashi Kikuchi Quotes
1. You’ll understand when you’re an adult that having fun can’t be everything.
– Tadashi Kikuchi, Sk8 the Infinity
Tadashi spitting facts here! He’s actually trying to make the boys realize that life is not always fun and games. This is coming out from the mouth of someone who has suffered greatly. It’s actually a warning and he’s quite true about that. Adults rarely get to have fun because of all the responsibilities they have.
2. Skateboarding is barbaric, obscure, and a worthless game that causes unhappiness.
– Tadashi Kikuchi, Sk8 the Infinity
Tadashi is unhappy because of the fact that skateboarding changed his former best friend (Adam) entirely. It made him absolutely ruthless and twisted. That’s why he comes to the conclusion that skateboarding can’t bring happiness in any way.
Conclusion
Sk8 The Infinity is all about the power of friendship and the importance of having fun together. These were some of the most powerful quotes from the anime. If you know about any other quotes from Sk8 The Infinity then do let us know in the comments. We’ll see you in the next one!
