I feel similarly about Naruto, there's a lot of goofiness but the themes can be powerful, and universal. Like Jiraiya's life dream, wanting to end the cycle of hatred and violence in the ninja world, a dream Naruto shared too.
Naruto's answer in some sense is super basic and simple, it's just to insist he would 'take on the hatred of the world by himself', 'never give up', and 'believe it' (lol). As I've thought more about the parallel of the 'cycle of hatred' in our world, I think there's a lot of wisdom in Naruto's actions. One way he 'took on the hatred of the world' was to fight flashy battles yes, but more important imo was to turn the cheek, like when he let Karui beat him up. For context and reminder, Karui is another ninja in the anime, one who wanted revenge on someone Naruto cared for deeply (Sasuke). If Naruto had fought her then, he would be continuing the cycle. There was no reasoning with the rage that fueled her and drove her to revenge. Naruto chose to absorb her rage instead.
What does this do in the story? Initially nothing, it seems irrational and humiliating. But over time it allowed there to be trust that Naruto was genuine, that when he dreamt of building a world where there was balance and peace and cooperation between the 'ninja nations', he wasn't trying to deceive. It allowed trust to grow, and that's a key to ending (or disrupting) the cycle of hatred.
I also think Guy Sensei is inspiring lol, and the final fight he had was poetic in a way, it legit made me cry (granted I was high, but still).
