...talking shit about someone behind their back is more polite than being upfront to them?

[(Anonymous)]

Right? I am so bewildered.

[(Anonymous)]

Sounds like a cultural difference. In east asian cultures, not bringing up a problem is polite.

[(Anonymous)]

I assume he said more than just this? Because "I don't like you" is blunt and maybe harsh, but it's honest, and no one has any obligation to let admirers down gently.

[(Anonymous)]

Eh, it might be a little forward, but isn't this just a more blunt version of "I don't feel that way about you"?

[(Anonymous)]

What if it were a girl being approached by boys who had trash talked her friend and people said she owed it to those boys to let them down nicely? and if she didn't she was a bitch?

Just asking.

[(Anonymous)]

And yet there's a good chance that if this character were a female rejecting a male character like that, I bet the OP wouldn't have a problem with it at all.

Just saying.

[(Anonymous)]

If I knew for a fact that someone was going around badmouthing my friend, I wouldn't like them either, and I probably wouldn't hesitate to say so. Especially if they were trying to hit on me at the same time, and doubly especially if they knew he was my friend when they did it. I don't know the show, though, so I don't know if those girls knew or not. Still. Does he have any reason to like them, or let them down gently? If that sentence is all he says, just from the secret it looks a) factual, and b) not really unjustified. He's not obligated to like them just because they say they like him, and someone who badmouths your friend in your hearing/where it will get back to you doesn't seem like someone who actually cares much for your feelings either. I don't see how him being blunt about it would make him worse than they are.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm a bit confused. He looks like an elementary school kid? Is this like a montage through the years or is he a kid in all of them? Cause why are people expecting so much from a kid who knows those girls trash talk his friends?
(Even if he does the same thing when he gets older, an "I don't like you." may be hard to hear but once again, if they trash talk his friends, I wouldn't expect him to be nice to them. He's honest. Now if he used the opportunity to be cruel to those girls by leading them on before dropping them or something like that, THAT I'd find truly terrible.)

[ill_omened]

Gossiping asshole detected.

Sorry that you can't appreciate the top tier true bro behaviour that Suna represents.

[(Anonymous)]

"At least the girls had enough manners to only talk behind Takeo's back."

I'm sorry, wut? How is that manners? It's BAD manners, where I come from, though everyone still does it they don't pretend it's polite. Personal preferences for interactions aside, that's still rude and underhanded.

[(Anonymous)]

Should have done worse to them, they sound fake and backstabbing to his buddy.

[kaffy_r]

He's a primary school kid at the time; hence the little smock thing he and the other kids are wearing. What he says and the way he says it, are completely understandable, especially within the context of the story, and generally within the context of primary school-aged kids in general. Nor does the show present this as either particularly admirable or particularly detestable action on his part.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm pretty convinced at this point that OP habitually talks shit behind people's backs and doesn't like it when people find out and call them on it.

[(Anonymous)]

They weren't just talking behind Takeo's back, they pretended to like Takeo to get closer to Suna.

And Suna didn't even confront them about that, just turned them down and moved on.
He was blunt, sure, but still nicer than what they actually deserved.

[(Anonymous)]

I wonder if you posted this expecting people to agree with you or were you prepared for everyone to think these girls (and you, since it's obvious you identify pretty strongly with them) are actually petty assholes.

[(Anonymous)]

Guy could've let them down gently but knowing how these girls have been bad mouthing his friend? I can't say I'd berate him for that. I mean, geeze, who in their right mind would go out with someone who talks shit about the people you care about anyway?

[gabzillaz]

hahahha no

[(Anonymous)]

Seeing this secret just makes me like the characters in this manga and their relationships even more. At first to the reader and Takeo Suna comes off as someone who is callous and cold, but later you learn that he was cold to the people who badmouthed Takeo, he even helps Yamato confess to Takeo for the sole reason of wanting to help. And Takeo returns the affection, being there for him when he needs it. It's so great to see such good friendship in manga.

[iggy]

Why should he be nice to people who talk shit about his best friend?

[(Anonymous)]

The only way this could have thought ill of him for this, is if the girls were talking about awful things that the best friend actually did

[(Anonymous)]

why would you feel bad for the ones who talked shit about his friend and tried to use his friend to get close to him?

[(Anonymous)]

For real, what do you all mean by "talking behind someone's back", because I refuse to believe no one here has ever said anything negative about a person who was not party to the conversation

[dahli]

It's not really hard to understand, though. If someone was talking about my friends behind their backs and then confessed to me, I'd turn them down too. Friend > Hypocrites.

Also I had people who acted nice to me and then talked behind my back. When I found out it was a pretty shitty feeling. So yeah, it's not really that hard to side with the blondie here.
