#snk rant

[the-last-hipopotamovolador]

I dont know how many times I have to say this but the biggest misinterpretation of Eren's character is that he is a fascist/racist/xenophobe.

YES HE IS A GENOCIDAL AND HIS ACTS ARE UNFORGIVEN , but NONE of his actions were based on a moral belief of "the people of paradise are superior to the rest of the world, all the rest of the cultures/nations/races have to be eliminated because they are inferior".

He is a 19-year-old boy who grew up all his life in an environment of fear, violence, extreme need and total lack of freedom. He is a character deeply marked by trauma. He always was a violent and impulsive boy with radical beliefs thinking that the world is "us" and "our enemies" and that life is kill or be killed.

But he is NOT a person who committed genocide based on discriminatory beliefs. He did it because in his way of understanding the world the only way to be free was to live in a world without other humans who threaten to take away his freedom. In Eren's eyes all the people outside of paradise are enemies, people who were guilty that he and the people he loved grew up locked up in a tiny piece of the world without even knowing why or how, and people who want him and anyone else from paradise to be dead. He is the definition of "a monster created by hate."

If you watched/read Shingeki no Kyojin and your interpretation of Eren is "anime hitler lol" then your levels of analysis and reflective thinking are at rock bottom.

I love the fact that finally (!!!) we'll know how Levi activate his power and improve his physical fighting skills. I'm sure he had experienced the traumatic moment in the same way like Mikasa (ch.6) but it's pity for me that in "Bad Boy" chapter he tells his childhood story to Gabi/Falco, Onyankopon + *(Yelena will overhear). The 104th who?

[levmada]

it’s so funny to me how the smartpass stories portray levi as a ‘tea enthusiast’ like 2 separate times when it’s actually the most autistic infodumping ever /pos.

one time, levi is stuck in a shop with a reporter cuz it’s raining. he kind of hates it at first bc he thinks the reporter is more of a gossip collector. but the instant he asks levi what he’s drinking levi is explaining in great detail where tea leaves are being grown, how they’re cultivated and how it affects the food supply for LITERALLY hours.

he wants the reporter to make a story about what matters here. he’s like ‘tea grown at high elevations are higher quality and these elevations are around the capitol but bc of the high demand for the lazy rich and no opportunity in the wider market, the land that could go to growing food-‘ etc

he gets trapped there in the early afternoon and can’t leave until after dark.

another time, original levi squad are perturbed bc of some tea the MP are urgently looking to repossess bc it’s ‘inedible’. levi is like: well aCtUAlLY these leaves are better than what we usually get because even a mule can tell it tastes better when [MOST DETAILED TEA STEEPING DIRECTIONS IMAGINABLE] but also because [INSERT INTRICACIES OF TEA LEAF SHAPE HERE] and i don’t see anything wrong with them because [INSERT METICULOUS STIRRING AND LEAF INSPECTION].

Finally watched the ending of SNK and loved it

and the amount of tears I shed cannot be counted. I cannot express how desperately I love this series. It's amazing, my poor baby Mikasa and my baby Hange. How can I continue without them?

I also rewatched some episodes from OPM and now I ship Saitama and Genos, practically 7 years late to this party xD

Edit: If you wanna laugh a little, you may want to check the comments and read them in chronological order (Oldest first)

I LOVE Eremika! But it does have its flaws.

I may not be the only Eremika shipper who still sees the slight problems about either their relationship or story around them in general, but I’m going to talk about it anyway.

(Warning! Slight spoilers for my friend)

There are two main problems people have with this ship - Eren barely showing signs that he loves Mikasa romantically and Mikasa’s love for Eren coming off as obsessive.

Yes, Eren may have shown less interest in Mikasa in the beginning but hey, he was still only a teen focussing heavily on his goals. At least starting in season 2, he stopped yelling at her whenever she tried to care for him, that’s a start. I’ll agree there should’ve been more signals that he grew some feelings for her overtime; especially before all the season 4 crap or maybe not go down that ‘evil’ path at all if you ask me.

As for Mikasa, *sigh* she had so much more potential to be MORE than just her love for Eren. Like, she’s already shown to be strong next to Levi, and some extra interactions with the other characters would’ve been nice as well (a lot of them were cut from the manga for the anime). I’d tone her obsession down a bit and maybe give her an actual goal in her life other than protect Eren, but still have those moments where she chats to him about their said futures.

One more thing: I think the biggest flaw that sets a lot of people off was they were first introduced living in the same house. This gave off that they were siblings at first, and that leaves a weird taste in my mouth if that makes sense. Why didn’t they just gradually reveal in the first episode that she’s not related to the Jaeger’s, like saying her last name or bringing up what happened that night at the cabin. Anything to make it more clear for the audience.

After all that, why do I still ship them? That’s the keyword: potential. Plus the brief moments they did had together before S4 really tug at my heartstrings, if only we could’ve seen that more along with a more believable transition of their romantic feelings for one another (mainly on Eren’s part). I love them a lot, but it’s wrong to ignore the flaws with their story and I’ll never tire of saying they deserved soo much better than what their story gave. 🗝🧣

(hopefully we can agree that S4 ruined them)

[levitiquee]

I was ranting to my friends (not anime watchers) about Levi and one of my friends got annoyed and was like, "WHY ARE YOU SO OBSESSED WITH HIM, WHAT DOES HE EVEN HAVE?!" So I was like, "YES BECAUSE WHAT DOES HE NOT HAVE?!"

AND MY OTHER FRIEND JUST CASUALLY PIPES IN LIKE

"A leg. Two fingers. An eye. Height."

"Oh don't forget, youth. Dudes like 40 years old."

"He doesn't have a mom either. Didn't he lose his best friend too? His whole squad :0"

"I think the better question is, indeed, what does he have?"

And I'm just sitting here like...

Uh.

WHAT KIND OF PSYCHOPATHS DO I HANG AROUND WITH???? 😭😭😭

[makiruz]

☆The Little Things☆

☆Jean Kirstein☆

~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~

A/N: This is Timeskip Jean btw

Jean leaned over the sink while he's shaving, the blade nicking him because he couldn't hold it properly, he wanted to get all the little beard that gathered up on his chin. You knock on the door and smile when he says come in, and boy does the sight of your man shirtless and hunched over trying to shave do things to you. Jean really aged well these past years, looking more rougishly handsome than before, and when those eyes flickered to you in the mirror--a small smile crossed his lips before he ran the blade up his neck.

"You cut yourself again!" You commented when he looked back down, not even realizing there was a little cut on his neck.

Jean sighed, "I'm not good at this!" He threw the blade into the sink, turning to face you and tilt his head up.

"Lemme help you, Jean!" You pull him away from the sink and sit on the edge of the basin, bringing him to stand between your legs.

Jean chuckled, your one hand firmly held his jaw--tilting it up slightly, while the other shaved the stubble and sideburns.

"What are you doing? Why aren't you shaving all off?" He noticed in the mirror that you didn't get the little goatee on his chin and gave you a 'stern look' when you smiled up at him. "It does not work!"

After cleaning his face off and having Jean face himself in the mirror you wrapped your arms around his neck and pressed a few kisses to his neck, "Trust me...the little goatee is working. It's working on me! You look hot You mumbled the last part.

Jean nodded, "Fine...if you think it's good, I'll keep it!" Though, you may have regretted telling him he looks good with us a little bit because he finds an excuse to use it against you.

Not that you mind.

If evil, why gender?

this blog holds two themes for muses:

a.) veterans b.) sasha lovers.

[fruity-blogs]

It's been days yet I feel so empty after watching one of the biggest shows of my childhood coming to an end. There really won't be any other replacement for Attack on Titan in my heart.

[natsuki208]

I have a confession to make…

(Sorry friend, but this has Season 4 spoilers)

I’m one of these fewer people who’re left who still loves Springles… as in Connie X Sasha.

Yes, I can understand why all of you prefer them to stick as a platonic relationship, especially from how they behave back in season 1 (both quirky in their own ways and funny chemistry) but somehow I can see it as a starting point for their relationship to evolve.

So I will stick with their bond in S1-3 staying as close friends, but as for them in S4? I can’t help but think they look cute together. Their older and (a little) more mature now, so I think either one of them should’ve developed feelings for one another… if a certain incident never happened.

Don’t even get me started with Gordon Ramsey (yes that’s what I call Nicolo) but I feel like he was just shoved in to p*** off the people who paired her with Connie for years. Kinda similar to the Farmer guy. Now if we were allowed to see more screen time of their relationship blooming then I wouldn’t be so mad, but words aren’t enough to convince me they were in love. I need to hear Sasha’s side of it too.

Overall, I feel Connie and Sasha had a bit more potential together, or just give more scenes with Gordon Ramsey and Sasha together. Or in other words… Sasha should’ve survived (ha. Alliteration).

That’s it. That’s the only reason Attack on Titan exists. Good day
