There's a very, very small Takirei ship community out there. Personally I don't think that ship would ever sail because Taki really, really, REALLY loved his deceased wife. Like he found true love, and then she left him when he was just 29. He still hasn't gotten over it and won't ever, so that's a huge block if you're going to ship him with any character, not just Reina.

But I think it would be nice if Reina got over her scary yandere obsession and started to see him as a father figure, and if Taki grew to care about her almost like a daughter. I say this because this transition is what happened to me in real life with me and my own band director.
