Anime quotes themed around comrades, bonds, and family (1–10)
There are times when you just can’t avoid a fight—when someone laughs at your friends’ dreams!Usopp
These are Usopp’s famous words from the anime One Piece.
He usually avoids taking the lead and is quick to run, but when it counts, he steps up.
No matter what formidable enemy stands before him, he’s a loyal man who protects only his love and bonds with his crewmates.
With so many scenes like this, One Piece really is a wonderful anime.
If your school’s educational philosophy is to belittle children’s feelings, then I chose the wrong school.Loid Forger
The anime SPY×FAMILY depicts characters who work as spies.
It’s highly acclaimed not only in Japan but also by anime fans overseas.
In episode 4 of season 1, the protagonist, Loid Forger, delivers this line.
Just before it, Anya—the girl who has become part of his makeshift family—was bullied, and he spoke out in anger.
Many viewers likely felt the same way or found it satisfying to watch.
Isn’t it because you’re amazing that I want to beat you?! Win!! I want to surpass you, you idiot!!!Izuku Midoriya
Known by the abbreviation “Hiroaka,” My Hero Academia ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2014 to 2024.
The protagonist Izuku Midoriya’s famous line, “It’s not that I want to beat you because you’re amazing!! I want to win!! I want to surpass you, you idiot!!!” conveys a sense of respect for his rival.
Rather than giving up because someone is incredible, the message is that it’s precisely because they’re incredible that you want to surpass them—a feeling born from a strong bond.
It’s a quote that can prompt you to think about who that person is for you.
In the shinobi world, anyone who can’t follow the rules and codes is called scum. But someone who doesn’t value their comrades is an even bigger scumbag.Kakashi Hatake
This is a famous quote from Kakashi Hatake, a popular character from the anime NARUTO.
It’s from a somewhat testing scene, but I think this line is wonderful because it conveys Kakashi’s ninja way and his humanity.
It resonates all the more precisely because Kakashi usually gives off a laid-back vibe.
Even so, I want the real thing.Hikigaya Hachiman
This is a line by the protagonist, Hachiman Hikigaya, from “My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, As I Expected.” In this work, which delicately portrays the complexity of human relationships, there’s finally a scene where the protagonist’s voice trembles and he sheds tears.
The “genuine thing,” which can’t be clearly defined, is probably something you shouldn’t compromise on, isn’t it?
There’s nothing to worry about! Everyone, just keep your eyes forward! I’ll watch your backs.Yu Nishinoya
Haikyu!!, the wildly popular manga that has become a new flagship work themed around volleyball.
The line by the character Yū Nishinoya—“There’s nothing to worry about! Everyone, just keep your eyes forward! I’ll protect your backs!”—is a powerful quote precisely because he’s a libero, a defense specialist in volleyball.
The message, “Don’t worry, I’ll always do my job,” couldn’t be more reassuring for those who fight as a team.
It’s a gem of a quote that shines all the more thanks to the bonds between teammates.
Soul… my friend.Greed
These are lines from Greed in the anime Fullmetal Alchemist.
Once you watch it, you’ll get hooked.
It seems these were the lines that hardcore fans across the internet all chose.
Please take this opportunity to start from episode one.
I think you’ll find it quite entertaining in its own way.
I don’t need friends. Making friends lowers your human intensity.Koyomi Araragi
This quote is a line spoken by Koyomi Araragi in the anime Bakemonogatari.
When I first heard it, I didn’t understand what it meant, but listening to it now, the meaning of the words hits me hard.
They’re incredibly weighty, and yet they seep into the depths of my heart.
Anime quotes themed around comrades, bonds, and family (11–20)
There are things anyone can do and things they can’t. I’ll do what you can’t. You do what I can’t.Sanji
In the hugely popular manga ONE PIECE, Sanji is the cook who plays an active role as a member of the protagonist’s crew.
His famous line, “There are things people can do and things they can’t.
I’ll do what you can’t do, and you do what I can’t,” is directed at his fellow crewmate Usopp.
It teaches us that true comrades make the most of each other’s strengths, acknowledge their weaknesses, and cover for one another.
Even in the real world, it’s a quote that imparts a mindset we’d want at the heart of any organization or group.
I’m grateful that you were born.Shizuka-chan’s dad
From the anime Doraemon, the conversation between Shizuka on the night before her wedding and her father is a famous quote.
Shizuka confides that she’s worried about leaving for marriage and that she hasn’t repaid her father for everything he’s done.
Her father replies that the fact Shizuka was born is already all the gratitude he could ever ask for, and that because they share so many memories, there’s nothing to worry about—then he sends her off.
