Weakness is the opposite of strength. And we all have it.
Sometimes you have weak moments where you’re not feeling your best, your most motivated, or where you’re not able to be as strong as you’d like to be.
Other times you’ll go through things that will reveal your weakness, or you’ll come face to face with it and overcome it. Then turn it into a strength.
These anime quotes about weakness relate to these types of themes and experiences. Each with its own life lesson and takeaway.
Here are some of the best lines from different anime.

4. Nagisa Shiota (Assassination Classroom)

5. Ittetsu Takeda (Haikyuu!)
“Is “defeat” proof that you are weak? Isn’t “defeat” more like a trial to overcome? Of whether you can stand up and walk again after falling to you knees? If you remain on your knees like that, then it would be a sign of weakness.” – Ittetsu Takeda
6. Murasaki (Hamatora The Animation)
“People like you disgust me. You can’t even face your own weakness.” – Murasaki
7. Najimi Ajimu Quotes (Medaka Box)
“God, just how long are they going to squabble over such pointless things? They are all the same in my eyes. Nothing but a bunch of trash. Light and Darkness. Good and Evil. Poison and Antidote. Winning and Losing. Strength and Weakness. Black and White. Success and Failure. Happiness or Sorrow… They’re all the same after all. Why hasn’t everyone realized this already.” – Najimi Ajimu
8. Susano Quotes (Akame Ga Kill)
“No matter how sturdy something appears, it should have some weakness.” – Susano

10. Su-Won (Yona Of The Dawn)
“Kindness is not a crime. But sometimes it awakens the weakness and greed in others.” – Su-Won
11. Puppet Master (Ghost In The Shell)
“Life perpetuates itself through diversity, and this includes the ability to sacrifice itself when necessary. Cells repeat the process of degeneration and regeneration until one day they die, obliterating an entire set of memory and information. Only genes remain. Why continually repeat this cycle? Simply to survive by avoiding the weaknesses of an unchanging system.” – Puppet Master
12. Kurama (Yu Yu Hakusho)
“You were wrong on two counts. Even the hardest substance can be broken, when crashed into itself. And the ability to feel pain is not a weakness. It’s a strength. Pain tells a creature its vulnerabilities, and not you expose them to attack. Your robot is dead. And so, I’m afraid, are you.” – Kurama
13. Sora (No Game No Life)
“Because of our weakness, we trained our eyes, ears and the ability to think. Learning how to survive, that’s our trait as humans! The human species can’t use magic and can’t even perceive it—but because we are weak, we have the wisdom to run away from magic and the intelligence to see through it! We don’t have any extraordinary senses. But because we are weak, by learning and gaining experience, we gained the wisdom to achieve the unachievable—to predict the future…Rejoice! We are humans; we are the most talented people! Precisely because we were born without any ability, we can achieve anything. This is the will of the weakest race!” – Sora
14. Itachi Uchiha (Naruto)
“Even the strongest of opponents always has a weakness.” – Itachi Uchiha
15. Oz Vessalius Quotes (Pandora Hearts)
“Strength begins in understanding your own weakness.” – Oz Vessalius
16. Sir Crocodile (One Piece)
“Weakness is a sin.” – Crocodile
17. Yuri Nakamura Quotes (Angel Beats)
“That’s right. Our weakness is that we’re utterly stupid.” – Yuri Nakamura
18. Shirou Emiya Quotes (Fate Stay Night)
“The weakness that had accepted death now became the strength of wanting to live.” – Shirou Emiya
19. Sosuke Aizen Quotes (Bleach)
“Don’t use such strong words – It makes your weakness all the more apparent.” – Sosuke Aizen
20. Gildarts Clive Quotes (Fairy Tail)
“Fear isn’t evil, it only allows us to learn our own weaknesses. When we learn our weakness, people can grow stronger and kinder.” – Gildarts Clive
21. Motoko Kusanagi Quotes (Ghost In The Shell)
“If we all reacted the same way, we’d be predictable, and there’s always more than one way to view a situation. What’s true for the group is also true for the individual. It’s simple: overspecialize, and you breed in weakness. It’s slow death.” – Motoko Kusanagi
22. Koko Hekmatyar Quotes (Jormungand)
“Kindness is weakness. Your weakness will delay the trigger by a moment. This world doesn’t treat kindness kindly.” – Koko Hekmatyar
23. Makarov Dreyar Quotes (Fairy Tail)
“Weaklings will stay weak forever. But weakness is not evil, since human beings are weak creatures to begin with. Alone, you feel nothing but insecurity; that’s why we form guilds, that’s why we have friends. We walk together in order to live a strong life. The clumsy ones will walk into more walls than the others, and it may also take them longer to get there. If you believe in tomorrow and put yourself out there, you can naturally obtain your strength. That’s how you will be able to smile and live strong.” – Makarov Dreyar

26. Rayneshia Lenessia Quotes (Log Horizon)
“Adventurers are free. They are more free than we are. It’s true that we may be weaker than they are. But that doesn’t mean that, in our weakness, we can become aggressive. We don’t have the right to take advantage of our weakness and use them as tools!” – Rayneshia (Princess Lenessia)
27. Natsu Dragneel Quotes (Fairy Tail)
“We know our weakness. Now what will we do? We’ll get stronger! We’ll get up and fight!” – Natsu Dragneel
28. Itsuki Minami Quotes (Air Gear)
