One does not choose a destiny, his destiny is bestowed, shaped and formed, from the soul.

You know, anime/manga teaches us a lot of about these particular kinds of ethics. That's one reason why I enjoy watching anime.


I've never watched anime or manga. Actually, I watched Naruto for a little,and DBZ when I was younger. That's about it, plus, what do you mean by that?

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

Ok, I'll be honest. You went the extra mile. Sure I've talked to people till the next days morning convincing them not to commit...but you did something different. You didn't become her 'pillar' you're looking at end game. I like your thinking man. Perhaps I'll try your tactics next time I have to convince a friend not to die that night.


Lets hope that doesn't happen often

It happens far too often. I have a lot of...'broken' friends. They have no one to rely on so I become that person..

manga/anime is focused on the story, character development, and themes. Through the storytelling and unraveling of characters (protagonists, etc), social ethics and moral values are "taught" or stressed in the animes in order to: prove points, make the right choices, how to live a life you otherwise wouldn't regret, make others happy (reduce suffering), etc.

For example, an ethic that is stressed (or "taught") in Naruto is that "hate breeds hate." It focuses on the process of understanding who you are as a person, how you relate to the other person, and how you can improve your own life by improving those of others.

I sort of went off a tangent there but in reality the concepts are intertwined with each other. It's very complex and compelling.

"Life is constantly fleeting from your grasp even from the very day it's bestowed upon you, but the shadow of death is always there, waiting for its chance to take you away."

"Even though many may not think so, ignorance and innocence are one and the same. The only difference is that one sounds nicer."

"I once knew a man who spent his entire life contemplating where we go after our death....it's a shame he realized it a second too late to tell anyone."

And on this day, a great deed was done. I don't know you, but I can already tell you'd be someone that i'd like. I don't have any stories to tell, but i've convinced people not to take that road twice before.

Well, one of them is on a good track, and I know she'll stick to it. The other? Well...there's no helping her, really.

...keep in mind I talked her out of suicide after she cheated on me, constantly denied it even when I knew it for a fact, left me with a "parting gift" I can't get rid of, and is now re-located on the other side of the country and denies ever having anything to do with me.

Pardon me if I want nothing to do with that individual. Even if she wanted to talk to me, i'd let her be an issue for someone else. She left me with enough already.

What the hell's wrong with you? We need people who understand the importance of paragraphs and grammar.

Worst case scenario: It's a fake story that still inspires people to try to be their best to make the world a better place for everyone.

I believe it though. Just saying even if it werent true, it's not a bad thing.
