I thought I was the only one. I know it's autistic, but I completely agree with Shirou's ideals, and I think the Shirou of UBW had the best possible outcome for a human being to achieve. I would love to help everyone I could, and have the power to really make a difference. Yes, I know I'm a faggot.

An hero is an idiot. You only want to save people because you want to feel indebted to by someone and it would grant you self-satisfaction and help you having an actual ego and stop hating yourself like you're doing. You only care about yourself and you are deluding yourselves with those stupid selfish reasons. Assume your shitty nature and stop dreaming.

I think that must be the reason i love Shirou so much. He's stupid and i can't agree with the bad and irresponsible decisions he makes but deep down i can't help but to look up to his ideal.

I wanted to be the villain. Not the edgelord world destroyer but definitely a villain.

>Shirou of UBW had the best possible outcome
Well you just exposed yourself as a secondary.
UBW Shirou is retarded and a huge child in the head. He can scream all he wants that he wants to be an hero, he doesn't do anything. He doesn't have any concrete idea of how to do it.
He just kills around people who disagree with him with his main character plot armor.

Fuck no. I wanted to be a villain. I wanted to be Darth Vader and Megatron and Frieza and Cell and Mewtwo and Kagato and the D-Reaper and Hans Gruber and all those motheruckers. I wanted to be dark and edgy and have a cool laugh and amass all the power and either win and deal the hero a tragic ending or go out like a total boss getting fucking disintegrated by the hero's last minute energy blast fueled by gay shit like guts and love and friendship 'n' shit. That was my ideal dream.

Back in elementary school, I got a posse of other proto-nerds and acted the part of the evil overlord during recess. My best friend at the time wanted to be the right hand man who didn't run the show, but got to be even edgier and more violent than the main villain usually.

I still often root for the villain in most stories where they're particularly developed. I still prefer stories that are either harsh or tragic.
>>
I still want to be a "hero", but I can acknowledge all of the things wrong with that.
Prepare for slight tl;dr, but when I was younger, I basically devoted myself to just doing things for others since I basically was a suicidal kid who rather be productive than waste a life.
Over time I found myself surrounded by people, new friends. Though, as I got better with people and actually made a pretty decent life out of it, I also ended up learning the hard way just how shitty people are, and how hollow many of your relationships are in your life. So much so that it makes me wonder all the time whether or not it's worth the effort I put forth for people. The only thing that really makes it worth it lately is that every now and then, I meet someone legitimately good with a bright smile. Those small moments help push me forward a good bit, and make me feel like it's still at least slightly worth the effort.


tl;dr - Went from emo kid to wanting to be a hero, then realized people suck but I'll be a hero anyway.
>>
>>143767738
I really just wanted, and still want, to be a warrior. I never cared that much about protecting the weak or some shit. I just wanted to fight.

I know now that I can't be a warrior, but I still desire it.

Yeah. And it's an idea that I carry on into my adult life. Though my definition of hero did change, due to age.

I donate a chunk of my cash to charity, I help out strangers when they get in trouble, toss a random homeless person an occasional buck. It's a far cry from being some superman who goes around killing bad guys by the scores, but it's a different kind of heroism.

Nah I wanted to be an anti-hero if I'm being honest.
I tried to purposefully be a cunt to people so that I could redeem myself when shit hit the fan.
When I realized shit doesn't hit the fan often enough to be an asshole like in shows and get away with it was when I grew up.

Also I always thought super powers were lame and fantasized about beating super powered beings with guns and stuff.
Only time I dug the idea of super powers was when it would benefit me in none heroic/combat ways, like invisibility and such.

I don't think that was OP's point but he made me remember.
