Can Naruto make the world a better place?

[Hard2bringdown]

If everyone were to watch Naruto and Naruto Shippuden, pay attention to the story and just be exposed to Naruto's life, actions, and personality, i think that despite being a cartoon, it would change the mindset of many, changing people for the better on the inside.

it would change the beliefs of many people if thy were to watch it.
it has a great moral value to it

 

[Roy]

No, not everyone is easily influenced by a cartoon..

 

[zombiejesus]

i dont think so man its a good show but if people joined up in a group and lived by it that is what a cult is

 

[UchihaJetx]

just believe in him

 

[LilithDeepRoses]

yes there are people really influenced by this i seen it many many many times and i am one of them aswell
makes u belive in urself more well depends in what way u see it

 

[sharinganenvy]

I think it could in a way, but there would have to be a much better way of presenting it than in a cartoon. But u do have a good idea, the morals are somewhat universal

you can say the same thing about adverting. Look @ fabreaze (sp?). back in the 90's the company almost went out of business. then in the 2000's they came back with a vengeance. Why? because in their first ad's they had stinky, unclean, commercials in the 90's and after they consulted a psychologist. they incorporated this idea of habit formation. In which you make a habit that was not originally there. so in their 2000's campain they showed using it as apart of everyday life and now we use it almost every day.


So, even little things such as watching a cartoon can in fact impact our society greatly.

No... it's BELIEVE IT!

 

[Hyperion]

Won't happen.

 

[iuo96]

Maybe.

The message has to get out there.

 

[tacobelt]

the trekis wont let that happen.

 

[Peace Maker]

Its depends..
Naruto change me a little bit and i learned many things and how and this are important yao mean?

 

[Hard2bringdown]

When i first saw the show, i was interested because it was a cartoon, and it was about ninjas and chakra(im open minded about that, i actually believe in that), but when i ended up realizing what the character of Naruto was developing into, what he was standing for, it hit me,.....someone out there(ty Kishi)had created a cartoon that included the values that i stand for, not to brag but my personliaty is exactly like Naruto's, and the thought of it spreading, this moral values, makes me think if it could actually indeeed do that, spread them.

 

[Swizzik]

no.....This is ridiculous most people won't take it seriously because its a cartoon and the general idea of cartoons is their associated with children.

 

[ImmaculateShadow]

No, not everyone is easily influenced by a cartoon..

... or Art. But f--k those people.

 

[Acnologia..]

Depending on wht type of people are out there 0_0

 

[Boa Hancock]

No. It would entail promoting 2 bowls of ramen for diet a day, chasing after your emo teammate (even though there was nothing in the whole series that made you out to be friends, not ONE HINT) and controlling your dark side and suppressing it instead of using your anger healthily.

 

[Luffy79]

Probably. It depends upon the person.
