Anime quotes themed around comrades, bonds, and family (1–10)
Once words leave your mouth, you can’t take them back. Words are like knives—use them the wrong way and they become dangerous weapons. You can even lose a lifelong friend over a misunderstanding of words.Edogawa Conan
Here’s a famous quote from Conan, the protagonist of the hugely popular anime Detective Conan.
He said it when Genta and Mitsuhiko from the Detective Boys got into a fight.
Haven’t we all experienced a scene like this at least once? Before things go too far, let’s remember these words and hold ourselves back.
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.
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.
No matter what the reason is, I won’t forgive anyone who hurts my friends!Shanks
Serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump since 1997, the massively popular manga One Piece has fans all around the world.
Among its characters, the pirate Shanks has stood out since the early days of the series, and one of his famous quotes is: “No matter the reason! I won’t forgive anyone who hurts my friends!” Because Shanks is the kind of person who usually laughs things off no matter what’s done to him, this line really shows how serious he is.
It’s a fiery quote that anyone with close friends can genuinely relate to.
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.
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?
