4 Anime Recommendations for Philosophers

Recently, I have found myself fascinated by the Myers Briggs Type Indicator [http://www.myersbriggs.org/my-mbti-personality-type/mbti-basics/home.htm?bhcp=1] (MBTI).

One Piece of Profundity

There are times when you watch a movie, or a show, and you get a really profound message from it. In my case, this happened while I was watching episode 563 [http://www.otakucenter.com/one-piece-563-shocking-truth-hodys-t82352.html] of One Piece [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Piece]. To get the
