Umemiya Hajime Quotes

“How can you be so happy while still being the top of Furin?"

"For me... I just simply like eating!"

"I love eating too! I really like curry! What about you?"

"I love omelette rice! But, even more than eating... I like doing stuff like this. Where everyone's having fun, enjoying themselves while we eat together. We can talk about anything and laugh like idiots. In this very moment, all the bad things don't even matter anymore. I'm always excited to spend that time with everyone. That's why I'm so happy right now. And well... being the top has nothing to do with hanging out with friends.”

“You can't become the top when you're alone right? You can only reach the top if you're being lifted by everyone under you. It was only possible because there were people who agreed with my vision and wanted to help me. That's why, when I became the top, I thought my dream no longer only belonged to me. That's exactly why, in order to make this dream a reality... no matter how difficult the path... no matter how unreasonable the climb is... no matter how absurd it gets... I will never lose.”

“I don't accept just anyone. But... in order to accept someone you have to lay everything open and face each other. You're able to do that and it looks to me like you want to accept others. You could even become the top”
