Being blunt has always been my specialty. It comes naturally to me, like breathing or smirking at stupid things people say. Some might see it as a flaw, but I consider it an art form—a way of cutting through the nonsense and getting straight to the point.
The Power of Bluntness
There's something liberating about being able to speak your mind without sugarcoating anything. It saves time and energy, unlike those who beat around the bush with their flowery words. People may find my bluntness off-putting at times, but that's not my concern.
I remember when we were facing Shiratorizawa in one of our matches. Their setter, Shirabu, couldn't stand how straightforward I was during our exchanges on the court. He found me annoyingly antagonistic—I call it a compliment.
Riling Up Teammates
It's not just opponents who are affected by my bluntness; sometimes even my own teammates can get riled up by what I have to say. Take Hinata for example—always full of boundless energy and enthusiasm that makes everyone think he's some kind of volleyball prodigy.
But let's be real here: his height is more suited for table tennis than volleyball! And don't get me started on Kageyama—he thinks he knows everything there is to know about setting because he has precise tosses or whatever fancy jargon they use for it.
Nishinoya and Tanaka? They're all brawn and no brains most days—the perfect comedic duo if you ask me! But hey, somebody needs to keep them grounded amidst all their shenanigans.
A Masked Inferiority Complex
Now here’s where things get interesting—I may come across as arrogant on the outside with all this snickering and provocations towards others' inadequacies—but deep down inside lies a different story. I have my own insecurities and self-doubts that eat away at me, making me question my own worth.
It's funny how people perceive me as this confident and composed player when in reality, there are moments where I doubt myself. But hey, that doesn't mean I'll let anyone see those cracks in the facade.
Annoyed by Underestimation
One thing that never fails to irk me is when people underestimate or belittle my abilities. It's like a personal challenge—a fire ignites within me whenever someone tells me what I can or cannot do. Call it motivation, call it stubbornness—I thrive on proving them wrong.
There have been countless occasions where opponents thought they had figured out all of my weaknesses—thinking they could exploit them during matches. Little did they know; those weaknesses were mere distractions from the true strength lying beneath—the power to adapt and overcome any obstacle thrown at me.
Conclusion: The Artistic Bluntness
In this world full of deception and hidden agendas, being blunt is an invaluable skill—one that not everyone possesses or appreciates. While some may view it as rude or insensitive, for others like myself—it’s a way of cutting through the noise and getting straight to the heart of things.
So whether you love it or hate it—I'm here to stay with my smug attitude intact because being blunt isn't just about speaking your mind—it's about embracing who you truly are without apologies.
