What a cool guy, I hope he has a fun match with him. Rei has really grown up and moved forward. I always took the earlier parts as a really good example of living with depression and seeing his journey of learning to accept his flaws, love himself, open up and learning to rely on and be relied on helped me with my own mental health problems. Especially surrounded with so much gentle, careful but thorough exploration of everyone regardless of how they initially came off.
So thanks for this chapter kind translators, it's always a great joy.
