Akito was always the coolest around, he was the one guy people looked up too and even could allow himself to speak tough for someone his age. It was no effort to just push this normal behaviour back his shoulders and act like he just was a cool, laid back individual. He wasn't one for wasting his time, never had been. Akito was just determined to surpass RAD WEEKEND. That was his dream. And those with half assed will weren't worth of reaching the same objective as him
But, he was still only a student. A first year student at Kamiyama with, to be honest, not that much will to put effort in studies. Barely taking the time to do his homework, barely studying.

He threw away his pride for a moment asking them to study with him at his home while his family was out. He was hoping for his parents to not know about him having people over to study. He was already, grumpily taking the big effort to ask someone to cover his ass
