What are anti-heroes?

Anti-heroes are cool characters who do good things, but not always in the nicest way.

Imagine your favorite superhero is like a friendly classmate who helps you solve math problems, that's a hero. But an anti-hero is more like a classmate who sometimes bullies others to get what they want, even though they still help you when it matters most.

Think of an anti-hero as someone who is strong and brave, but also a little grumpy or selfish. They might save the day from a big problem, but not always because they care about everyone, sometimes they just want to win or get what they want.

For example, imagine you have a robot that helps you clean your room every day, but it also pushes your toys around when it’s in a bad mood. That robot is like an anti-hero!

Anti-heroes might not wear capes or have shiny powers, sometimes they’re just regular people who do amazing things in their own way, even if they're a bit rough around the edges.
