Shinori is rather confused by all this talk of Hakuba being pretentious. “I don’t see how he’s being pretentious? Ah, with all due respect.”

“That’s very sweet of you to say, but not everyone takes to his criticism very well… and he’s often quite insensitive with the things that he says. Normally, he’s very well behaved and polite, but… occasionally, he puts his foot – loudly – right into his own mouth.”
