No matter how many people you may lose, you have no choice but to go on living. No matter how devastating the blows may be.

Up until recently, I thought I should simply live to fulfill my role as I understood it. I thought if I died like that, I could at least consider it a proper death. But now... I feel like that's not entirely right. Walking the dog, raising a family, any sort of role like that is just fine. Even if you don't have anything like that, as long as you can eat, shit, and sleep... even if you're stuck in bed sick, even if you spent your life with no connections and nothing remains of you... more than memories made in one's image, it's within the tiny little fragmants that remain, drifting off, where the true value of a life lies. It never had anything to do with the ways people die. I just couldn't forgive those who acted as if that value didn't exist. Sukuna... I loathe you. Humans aren't tools. We aren't born with any set role. Which is to say... I don't know. I don't know whether humans are fundamentally good or evil. I could very well be doing the wrong thing here, so I thought I should at least let you see the humanity of someone other than yourself. Of someone you see no value in.

~ Yuji's philosophy on the meaning of life to Sukuna.
Pure Goods who believe that life has meaning, and they value it. These are not deterred by the apparent lack of meaning in life, but rather they strive to create meaning themselves. They understand that their actions can have a profound impact on the lives of others, and they use their abilities for the betterment of society. Their altruistic nature drives them to help those in need, to fight against injustice, and to promote peace and harmony.
Unlike Nihilists and the heroic counterpart, who may succumb to a sense of hopelessness, pure good heroes bring hope to those around them. They inspire others to believe in the power of goodness and the capacity for positive change. They serve as beacons of light in a world that can sometimes seem dark and chaotic. Moreover, these heroes are not only driven by a sense of duty, but they also possess a deep empathy for others. They understand the importance of compassion and the value of human connection and strive to uplift and support those they encounter, offering a helping hand to those who have lost their way. In a world that often seems to celebrate cynicism and skepticism, pure good heroes provide a refreshing alternative. They remind that there is beauty and purpose to be found in life, even in the face of adversity.
No matter how small it may seem, they teach that we all have the capacity to make a positive impact. In stark contrast, pure good heroes reject this notion entirely. They believe in the inherent value of life and the importance of moral principles. These heroes see the world as a place filled with potential, where their actions can make a positive difference. They possess an unwavering sense of purpose and are driven by a strong moral compass. Ultimately, pure good heroes stand as a powerful symbol of the triumph of hope, compassion, and morality over nihilism. They challenge the notion that life is meaningless and demonstrate that our actions can shape the world for the better. In a world desperately in need of heroes, these anti-nihilists serve as an inspiration and a guiding light for us all.
