I still find Kamina's repeated urging for Simon to "believe in the me that believes in you" to be something really compelling. The exact wording is a little awkward and stilted - translations almost always are - but the sentiment is gold, especially for the teenage audience this kind of stuff tends to attract.
Sure, you don't believe in yourself. You tear yourself down all the time. But you also believe in your best friend, you think the world of him, and here's your best friend saying he believes in you.
- mjevans 6y agoI found it to be a better version of "believe in yourself"... anyone that needs to hear that phrase is very likely to have problems doing just that. You nailed the context though; believe (your best elder-brother figure) who believes in you; they thought you could, prove them right.
