Explanation

Blatant means completely obvious, offensively conspicuous, or done without any attempt to conceal. Flagrant is the closest synonym, meaning glaringly evident or scandalously noticeable. Tardy means late, futile means useless, and depressed means sad - none of these capture the overt, shameless quality of blatant.
