You may laugh, but it was actually a visual novel for me, Fate/Stay Night. The main theme of it is the relationship between ideals and reality and how they aren't always compatible, as well as how you can deal with that.

It made me think about my ideals and values, and whether they are worthwhile. I came to the conclusion that following them is worth it even if they are flawed and even if they can never be truly achieved.
