LOL yeah so this is easily one of my favorite scenes in SOO!
Yujiro couldn’t give two shits about being called “The Strongest on Earth” by others.
To him, that title is just a nickname, and doesn’t define who he is at ALL.
He’s not being humble by any means, either. If anything, he’s implying that mere words can’t truly describe who he is. Titles like “the Strongest” are catered to ordinary people, not for someone like him.
For Yujiro, his identity begins and ends with simply being… Yujiro. He kind of just… exists.
He doesn’t need validation, recognition, or a title from anyone else because none of those things define him or are even capable of comprehending the full scope of his power.
I really love how even to this day, Itagaki continues to find creative ways to reinforce Yuji’s justifiable arrogance throughout the series, and it allows him to remain such a unique and incredible character as a result. 🤩❤️🔥❤️🔥
