Thank you so much for your analysis of Naruto. I am so conflicted by this anime, in some instances i think it excels and is amazing, in other parts I grow to hate it, there is no other franchise that incurs my hatred and adoration.

I preferred the original trilogy but am baffled by the hate for the prequel they are good movies, and a lot of people forget that they were very well received when they first came out

Really good article! While playing the game myself I grew to like Josh and did my best to save him, of course without success. Your article ends with the idea that this video game could have challenged the accepted view of people with mental health issues are without hope. This medium of video game grows stronger everyday with the stories they tell and make you experience, and there getting better at making people take the lessons they teach into our real lives and think for a moment ‘why couldn’t I save him’. Perhaps by portraying the end in that way in a fictional environment they make us ask, and in the end change. This game could have ended with josh’s happy ending, but I find that the more painful endings reach deeper, and perhaps show more meaning. Thank you for your time and efforts.
