Since Chuuya had this tendency to being rude and straight forward, Dazai once decsribed him as “ a guy glistening like a slug. I really cannot hang out with him.” There are many more stories about Chuuya being a gremlin to people around him. It’s said that one time Chuuya yelled: “ Hey you damn governor” at Sakaguchi Ango while staying one meter away from him, because Chuuya was smaller in size compared to Ango and couldn’t win in a fight.
