Saiki takes pride in being good at going "unnoticed" and keeping people at a distance. Those are supposed to be the things he's best at. But in reality, he's absolutely terrible at both! Being the huge tsundere that he is, the more he pretends to hate everyone and tries to avoid them, the more he ends up caring about them, getting involved in their lives and putting himself in situations where he actively sabotages his own efforts just to help them. He fails miserably at being the lonely and detached person he pretends to be! This could also tie into how he once admitted that he doesn't consider himself a good person, that someone like Hairo would be more deserving of his powers than he is, and the guilt he feels over lying to his friends, making his mother keep secrets and being unable to stop the volcano :( "And for this gift, I feel blessed"-> At the beginning of the series, Saiki sees his powers as a whole as nothing but a curse. However, as the story progresses (especially toward the ending) he gradually realizes that his supposed "failure" to keep people away is actually the greatest gift he could have received. Deep down, he feels blessed and grateful that his friends never gave up on him, eventually breaking through every barrier he tried to put between them. "Our little group has always been / And always will until the end"-> The little troublesome group of friends he finally accepts as his chosen family, a family he intends to keep by his side until the very end <3 #saikikusuo #斉木楠雄のψ #tdlosk #saiki - @beasaik"/> Saiki takes pride in being good at going "unnoticed" and keeping people at a distance.
