(I've never been told this, but imagine, if you will)
"Bionicle is not that deep, it's a series of toys for kids."
What about the themes of stepping up and becoming someone others need when the time calls for it?
What about learning that you can do amazing things despite your insecurities?
What about learning bravery and being a strong leader isn't about barking orders at people and having them obey you under the fear of what you'll do if they don't, but rather that it's about guiding and leading the people who follow you and trust you with their lives?
What about the layered characters who have flaws, insecurities, weaknesses, characters who are in no way human, but are in every sense of the word?
What about seeing yourself in one of these characters and seeing how they gave similar challenges you do, and then seeing them succeed and it gives you confidence to succeed in what you aim to do?
What about the tragedy the story posts for a number of characters and how they are resilient in the face of that tragedy?
What about learning that strength isn't necessarily a physical thing or particularly loud, but rather it's something quiet, something people don't see, something they only realize is there when they know what to look for?
What about learning to continue to be kind and maintaining your compassion even after the world has done you wrong?
What about learning the people you meet as strangers become not only your friends, but your family because of your shared experiences and it's a bond no one can break or take away from you?
What about learning to maintain hope for a better future and working towards it for not only yourself, but for others?
What about learning to become who you truly are and who you're meant to be and truly discovering who you are and finding yourself after so long of not fitting into your own skin?
What about all these questions and so much more that indeed are that deep in this suits of toys meant for kids?
What about all these lessons and so much more?
What about?
