Blog 18 - Star Trek

"It's Humanized, it looks sad."
It refers to the human race in the movie.  I guess they looked down upon the humans. That is why Spock was looked down upon by his race. Because he is half human, everybody just hates him.


"You were meant for something better."
People were trying to tell James that he had potential to be the next captain of a ship like his father who became captain and saved many lives the day he was born.


"The impossible would be probable."
I don't remember who said it but it is sometimes true in life. You have to just try and make the impossible probable. It's a good thing that there's always a chance of that.


"What is necessary will never be unwise."
I think Spock said this and it's true because the necessary is what is wise. Like it's important, so it would always be wise to do the necessary.


"Anger I cannot control."
Sometimes you just can't control anger and it just releases.

Blog 17 - Guilty Crown

Source

Recently I have been watching this anime called Guilty Crown, I only watched it for my own enjoyment but as I think about deeply and I noticed that it has some philosophical connections that we have learned in philosophy class. Guilty Crown takes place in the future where everything is advanced in Japan. Apparently a virus that infected everyone in Japan similar to the black death occured on Christmas which they called "Lost Christmas". The main character, Shu Ouma had lived a regular life before he met Inori Yuzuriha. She was part of the Funeral Parlor which is a group that was rebelling against GHQ which was the organization that cured the virus that occurred on "Lost Christmas". Apparently they developed a way to be to control human genomes, and only 3 doses was made. This is how Shu got involved with the group by accidentally gets injected by one of it and people who gets injected by it gains a new power and is known as a King that can extract people's voids which tools or weapons that are the manifestations of people's hearts. He denies it similar to Neo from The Matrix that he would be the one to save people from another virus that would occur again. He denies his potential and as the story goes on he believes in himself because of Gai, who helped him realized his potential like what Morpheus did for Neo. He would later then go through the same stages like Neo did. The Enlightenment stage where in the end he used his powers to the best of his abilities and save Japan.
