this is gonna bother me if i don't address it so
i am the exact type of person who has always said - about the aot fandom - not to believe every 'fact' you read bc misinfo and (sometimes intentionally) wrong translation is strangely common in this fandom. it pops up all the time, which is exactly why i made a conclusive post about facts specifically about levi. it's important to me. i'm really passionate about levi and i love his character. that's the only agenda i had when making that post.
no one will ever know how much time and effort i poured into that post. not to claim i'm flawless of course, but i combed through isayama's blog, multiple translations of magazines in which levi content appeared, and other side-media. chinese, english, and japanese. some sources weren't fluent in japanese, and some were. it took me weeks because i wanted to *try* to be flawless at least.
i was honestly leaning toward keeping any facts about characters besides him OUT of the post because of the exact reason i'm talking about this. i was worried about not being taken seriously or being accused of picking and choosing translations because of some shipping agenda. the number of disclaimers i even added was to emphasize that i'm not perfect, but i am as informational and unbiased as possible.
it's annoying. it would make sense that it would be unbiased if i was a levi stan which... jesus this would go on forever if i made a testimony about that. i've been here for years. funnily enough the moment i become passionate about a ship with levi in it, i start to receive weird messages.
so it's super fucking disappointing not to be taken seriously and to be accused of the same thing i rant about often on this blog. i've gotten requests about other 'facts' and trivia, but i don't even *want* to now, and that's so annoying.

Prezidents Rinkēvičs ietvītoja, ka Kantam šodien 300tā dzimšanas diena. Atcerējos, ka DK grāmatā 'Philosphy' attēlotais Kants ļoti atgādināja manu vectēvu, kurš arī bija liels domātājs ar zinātnisku attieksmi pret visu, kam ķērās klāt. Protams mani ieinteresēja šī vizuālā (un mentālā) līdzība un jā, atklājās, ka Kanta senči no tēva puses nāk no Klaipēdas kuršiem jeb Mēmeles kurseniekiem. Mans vectēvs sejas vaibstus mantojis no savas mātes, kas meitas uzvārdā Tontegode cēlusies no kuršu ķoniņiem, tāpēc jā, teorētiski kaut kāda saikne ir iespējama un varbūt pat arī noskaidrojama. Kartē kursenieki (latviskoti kurši ārpus LV) 17.gs.

* one thing I did like in the finale was that Ivan was the first person akumatized, and back then the class seemed to be afraid of him when he got angry again.
* and now Ivan is the first person miraculized, and the class is there for him and they comfort him.
* also, Kim was the person who got Ivan akumatized the first time, and now Kim is the first person to try and get the alliance ring off and save Ivan.
* really shows how everyone’s grown over the 5 seasons

Re-verse Max and Kim / Spyware and Firewall
I finally got around to finishing Kim and Max's kamiko forms! Their designs kind of ended up looking more villain-like, but they're still supposed to be superheroes working for the resistence lmao.
Spyware can upload himself into any computer and re-emerge from any other computer in the world as long as it's connected to the internet. He can also read any information from the computer he's currently in. He's used less for fighting and more for gathering intel or placing spyware in computers of people who are tied to the Supreme. If he's ever sent on a more potentially dangerous mission that could result in a physical confrontation, he's paired up with Firewall
Firewall's powers are pretty straightforward. He has his cool blades, and he slices with them. They're also molten hot. He can also generate "digital constructs" made from the same material as the blades and he uses them to make shields or platforms. Kind of similar to Gwen's powers from Ben 10 alien force.
Next up are Nathaniel and Marc! I already decided on their powers but I've been struggling with their designs. Hopefully I'll figure it out soon.
Full Re-verse Lineup below!
