The character Kamina from Gurren Lagann is my guiding light. Whenever I’m feeling down or depressed, I remember some things he said and feel better and inspired. They’ve even prevented me from killing myself on more than one occasion. I always remember his quotes and speeches and they help me in my day-to-day life and getting through tough times. Jiraiya-sensei from Naruto as well. Despite being fictional characters, they’ve helped me so much and I’m very grateful to the writers for helping me so much.
So if anyone is ever feeling bad, just remember some quotes by those two characters. Look them up if you have to. And remember to keep going and never give up. I know Shonen anime really beats you over the head about never giving up and to always keep trying to the point of being lame and cliche, but it’s really extremely applicable to real life and can really help.

“….the most important thing for a shinobi to have is the guts to never give up!” – Jiraiya-sensei
