Character Breakdown

Introduction

We Study Character Analysis because it will be asked of you to do in all English classes including college BUTIt completely changes the way we are able to understand characters and relate to them

Why is Character Analysis Important

How to Breakdown Characters in Easy Steps

How is the character facing the challenges and problems in their story so far - Are they changing maybe becoming better or even worse - How are they choosing to solve their problem? - Who do they choose to find support with?

Middle

Who is the character by the end? Are they the same person = unchanged and flat or have they grown - We all grow as people that's what makes us special so GREAT characters tend to grow with us - We RARELY are able to relate to a character by circumstance but we can relate to their development

End

Look at who the character is at the beginning of the story and what problems they will have to face - Every story will set up the issues characters will be faced with that's how writers get us invested

Beginning

Naruto lost the battle and will lose the war HE CANNOT OUT FIGHT PAIN but HE LISTENS finally able to say that HE is the example that proves the villain wrong

By the End of Pain Arc

A Hard worker and master of many styles of fighting - Does not feel alone but still feels powerless and inadequate - Still struggles to listen

Beginning of Show

Because Bobo has a short appearance the beginning has to be implied - What happened behind the scenes with Walter and given his intelligence how he must have acted

Middle

Beginning

The WILD, COMEDIC, and SAD Side character of A Raisin in the Sun
