Why does Hayama feel that he is inferior to Hachiman?


I have watched the anime and read the light novel as well but I can't
understand why he feels that he is inferior?




The answer proved to be more complex than I originally thought it would be. In
short Hayama feels inferior to Hachiman because he was able to do something
that Hayama had been trying to for a long time, that is to help Yukinoshita.

It would take too long to explain in detail but if anyone is interested they
can check out Hayama character analysis at [Oregairu
analysis](http://yaharianalysis.x10host.com/)




Well, Hayama has the good looks, friends and stuff, but most of his "friends"
would just stop being friends if Hayama isn't "Hayama" anymore; Most of his
"friends" would just abandon him, if he were to be attacked by a bear
somewhere in a forest.

He realizes this after trying to see from Hachiman's point of view, Hachiman's
cynical and "real" outlook on 'the youth', society, and life in general
doesn't seem too far fetched.

Hayama being the "good guy" tried to "associate" better with Hachiman because
he "pities" him, but then realizes that most of Hachiman's world views are
painfully accurate; and that his way of thinking isn't totally wrong either,
and that is what makes Hayama think he is inferior to 8man.

or maybe because Hachiman has two girls going after him, while Hayama has a
bitch, and a girl that's going to die of blood loss sooner or later.
