How do we determine who is the protagonist? Antagonist?

Answer:

Protagonist is the character who is usually the “good guy”, while antagonist is the “bad guy”. Antagonists aren’t always bad, but sometimes they are just lost and can’t see what the protagonist sees. And sometimes, the protagonist/antagonist is a bit harder to figure out, since in certain stories they can do good as well as bad things. But the main way I find helpful is by thinking, ‘who is the person who is helpful here?’ Or if that doesn’t help, try, ‘has either one of the characters done a bad thing?’ And sometimes the protagonist will do a bad thing, but for a good reason. So again, it could go either way, but that should usually help you decide.
