Thought-Provoking, Philosophical Anime Quotes (11–20)
Please give me the middle finger!Nina Iseri

Let me introduce one of the most moving scenes from “Girls Band Cry”! Nina is a shy girl who has always gone along with others and read the room.
She never stood out in elementary, middle, or high school and didn’t have any big dreams—but meeting “rock” changes her drastically.
Momoka, too, changes after meeting Nina.
The phrase “Stick your middle finger up” is something Momoka left on Nina’s guitar, meaning she wants Nina not to lose—to never back down.
In this scene, Nina’s one line is a legendary quote that answers Momoka from the heart.
Even I can understand something yet still not be able to accept it…!Athrun Zala
This is a famous quote by Athrun Zala, the second protagonist of the anime Mobile Suit Gundam SEED—hailed as the “First Gundam of the 21st century”—who also appears in its sequel, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY.
Isn’t it a situation we’ve all experienced at some point, where we can ‘understand’ what someone is saying but still can’t ‘accept’ it?

Hyōdō is the head of the company.

Once you’ve reached the stage where you can execute instructions, this might be what’s required for the next step.
On what basis, exactly, do you guys sort out what’s good and what’s evil?Shogo Makishima
