The protagonist doesn't have to be good though and the antagonist doesn't have to be bad. Death Note is a perfect example.

Of Course,

The Protagonist
is a Leading Character.
Which often Fine, Pleasant, Righteous and Noble Qualities
(Hero)

The Antagonist
is an Opposing Character
Which often Malicious, Bad, Ill-intentioned and Dangerous
(Villain)


But not always the Case

Some Good Protagonists.
can be having Fatal Flaws, Lack Good Qualities
or Gotten Corrupted

Some Bad Antagonists.
can be having Fatal Flaws, Lack Evil Qualities,
or Redemption


But Both also comes in other
Moral alignments

Even if Protagonists are often Fine, actively Righteous and Noble Qualities.
(Hero)

They're just mostly Good (Heroic),
Sometimes can be Neutral and Also Malicious


Even if Antagonists are often Bad,
Very malicious and Bad-intentioned
(Villain)

They're just mostly Evil,
Sometimes can be Neutral and Also Good (Heroic)


Just a Feedback

The protagonist is simply the main character. Not automatically the good guy. A protagonist could be evil. Look at Death Note.

A protagonist is simply the character the story follows and is revolved around

My English teacher was talking about this in class and I was scared to ask the difference so thank you for explaining. (:

[musicizair]

I feel like the Peter pan example is confusing because it depends on which book

[LocalIceMachine]

Every time I heard antagonist I just thought of Kokichi

[niceokav]

when you realize peter pan didnt want kids to leave his land so he could kill them and the story is about peter pan being the protagonist but ehh its just a theory of kids

Easy to say

A good challenge can make happiness until good ending.

A bad challenge can make terrible until bad ending.

Any possibilities way with their challenging good or bad?

Antagonists is an obsession for me. I love backstory for evildoers and antagonists in fiction and reality, hence my fascination with true crime and serial killers. If a fictional character has no explained backstory, I invent my own based on details I notice and use my imagination. It helps me become more engrossed in the story.

Naruto vs sasuke. (naruto protagonist). (sasuke antagonist) -_- I understand 👍

[ChassieNix]

Thank You. If grade school was taught in this way. I would have learned something worth while. lol

[hananhussein]

This doesn't tell what they mean it only shows examples of them that people might not know about.

[RicklessSanchez]

One of them should take checkmate whatever story end rather happy ending or no happy ending.

[metalmichew]

Isnt that kind of a bad way to see it? Frieza is the protagonist, Goku the antagonist, In what spot would Vegeta be?(at the time for becomming "good"

[SigmundFreud]

Every time I hear of Antagonist I think
Graffiti SprayPaint.

[abdull]

Protagonist is not necessarily a good guy or a hero and the antagonist is not necessarily bad guy

[toruoikawa]

I got set this for drama so for the protagonist -Levi
Antagonist

[annateves]

I'm teaching a raisin in the sun. I feel like all characters except the son or grandson are protagonists.

[ewn]

I only know TWOO (The Wizard of Oz) from Diary of a Wimpy kid cause I'm the kid who doesn't watch movies

[vinhp]

What happens when the Protagonist is bad?
