I just finished writing an essay in which I used the quote :
>"Human life is full of pain and suffering, and although humans can hurt each other some choose not too. That is what makes human interaction worthwhile. "
and I was wondering if there are any other quotations from Anime that surpass the genre, ones that offer insight even a normalfag could appreciate.
I particularly like one from Big O, though it doesn't have a particularly direct meaning:
>"Cast in the Name of God, Ye not Guilty"
" I forgot to make rice for the curry"
The greatest quote in fiction
>In philosophy
>Professor asks me about the concept of death
>Put on the spot, start panicking but remember a certain quote from Bungou Stray Dogs S2
>"Man fears death and yet, at the same time, man is drawn to death. Death is endlessly consumed by men in cities and in literature. It is a singular event in one's life that none may reverse."
>Professor looks stunned, class gives me a round of applause
Anyone else had anime help them in real life?
>Long ago in a distant land I, Aku, the shapeshifting master of darkness unleashed an unspeakable evil.
My God, I hate it so much when anime or movies try to make some bullshit philosophical analysis about mankind, life, death, etc... whereas their creator clearly don't have any solid knowledge in that matter appart from one or two basic concepts (barely grasped in their philosophical classes in high school) which will be translated into a stupid punchline.
I had the exact same experience but with Cowboy Bebop.
>"Men always seem to think about their past before they die, as though they were frantically searching for proof that they truly lived."
may be related.
Please tell me you properly cited it

look at this white knight over here
The thought of an user standing up on a philosophy class, quoting samurai jack and getting applauded for it has me in stitches.
also
>people die if they are killed
cringe
I agree with this user.
We used to use the word cringe literally as to mean our reaction to things that before we called "do not want", now even normies and reddit use it liberally to mean "i dont like thing", therefore surpassing its original meaning.
>In Italian restaurant
>Waiter asks me what kind of dressing I'd like on my salad
>Put on the spot, start panicking but remember a certain quote from Lucky Star
>"Balsamic Vinegar"
>Waiter looks stunned, entire restaurant gives me a round of applause

>Penis inspection day
>hot as fuck teacher asks me how do I fuck
>put on the spot, start panicking but remember a quoet from one of my japanese animeys
>"MY hips are moving on their own"
>Shag the teach in front of the whole class, cum out like 5 liters of ejaculate andthe whole class starts high fiving my dick.

ok, fun things are fun, but what do the dogs eat?
"'Invincible'... it's merely a word."
>The act of taking is equally evil. We, from the moment of birth, continue to take. Food, connections, even fellow blood. Living to utmost. Continuing to slaughter, kill, take. Life is to constantly sin. Life is evil itself. I am aware i am evil... And so are you all.
"kyon-kun, denwa"

I think there are three cases.
1) Philosophical punchline is actually good and well-thought, serves a reflection, so it's good
2) Philosophical punchline has no substance and is heavily emphasized, making it cringy and pretentious, harming the story and the writing
3) Philosophical punchline has no substance but it's actually just here to be a cool punchline and it works (e.g. half of the speeches in Gurren Lagann), so it's okay.
