Porous Hero
The term role model generally means any "person who serves as an example, whose behaviour is emulated by others". The individual that I chose from a young age to emulate my behavior off of is Spongebob Squarepants.He is a sponge that lives at the bottom of the ocean in a town called Bikini Bottom, where he works at a local burger restaurant called the Krusty Krab. He’s not my hero in the idea that he lives alone and works in fast food for his entire life but because he is the most loyal and determined individual that I can think of. He taught me that no matter how old you are, to never let go of your inner child.
In the Spongebob Squarepants Movie, he is sent on a quest to retrieve King Neptune’s crown, but in order to get there he must reach Shell City. The journey puts him to the test where he is able to find the balance between becoming a man and keeping a child at heart along with showing loyalty to his friends like Patrick Star and his boss Mr.Krabs and show courage and bravery through the many challenges he faces during his travel to Shell City.
He becomes a hero by returning the crown and saving the city from the evil scientist Plankton. He does so in a very unorthodox way because he and his best friend for life Patrick must figure out a way to become men and save the town while still retaining their inner child. Several times throughout the movie the friends question their manliness.spongebob says “What about US? We’ll never survive that trench! You said it yourself, this is man’s country. Let’s face it Patrick, we’re just… kids.”
Patrick says, “We're NOT kids!”
Spongebob tells him, “ OPEN YOUR EYES, PATRICK! We blow bubbles, we eat ice cream - we worship a dancing PEANUT, for corn's sake! We don't belong out here!”(Spongebob Squarepants Movie)
In this way, Spongebob is actually a tragic hero because even though he does save Bikini Bottom, he makes many mistakes and has many
