Anime Monday - universal themes

Today I'm continuing the theme from this past Friday's Inspirational Friday.
The basic premise is this you can find things that God has made universally known throughout man's works of art, because man being made in the image of God creates things that represent some universal truths.

And in many of the anime works you find theses truths:
It is choices not circumstances that makes the individual.
Themes of love and self-sacrifice despite all odds overcoming the evil in the world.
And then there is this verse that you see in a lot of works:
Romans 12:21
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

One of the most recent animes really reflective this idea. It is called Heroman and the theme was about what it is to be a hero overcoming evil that have invaded the world.

This is not to say that there are bad themes throughout anime. There are ideas of reincarnation, witchcraft, sexual themes... Just to name a few.

So one needs to be careful and run from the bad to the good.

Join me wednesday when we finish this series in the World of Warcraft.
