Anime Affliction

Why Do People Jump? (A Silent Voice)

There’s a scene in *A Silent Voice* that completely wrecked me and I couldn’t stop thinking about why characters jump. Or fall? What do those moments _really_ mean in stories? It hit harder than I thought and it led me down a rabbit hole of stories, from heroism to heartbreak, where jumps mean way more than they seem. From Shouya’s fall in *A Silent Voice* to heroic and tragic leaps across anime and movies, this video explores how jumps and falls reveal the deepest truths about these characters…and ourselves. ⚠️ *If you’re going through a tough time whether it’s because of bullying, depression, or thoughts of self-harm, please don’t go through it alone.* There’s help out there, and talking to someone can really make a difference. In the U.S., you can call or text *988* to reach the *Suicide & Crisis Lifeline* any time. If you’re outside the U.S., check out *Befrienders Worldwide* (http://www.befrienders.org/) or *Find A Helpline* (http://www.findahelpline.com/) to connect with support in your country. You matter, and things can get better even if it doesn’t feel that way right now. Reaching out is a brave and important first step toward healing.
