I only watch Attack on Titan for the sexual subplots that don't actually exist.

The idea that the internet is responsible for homoerotic male relationships in fiction is such an incredibly big brained take. Shipping can be irritating but holy gently caress don’t lobotomize yourself to make a lovely point.

People have to do that because there's incredibly little on the market that features gay love, whereas deep male friendships and familial connections are absolutely everywhere. Sentiments like yours are so backwards and ignorant it genuinely makes me angry. I thought my response was snide enough. At least enough to hopefully make them unsure of how to respond back and make them think about what they said, lol.

Shipping is only obnoxious when that fandom bleeds over into normal spaces. Then it's super annoying.chiasaur11 posted:(Also, the tallest non-titan in the anime is Yelena. It's sometimes hard to notice, but she's something like 6'7''.) She's a god dang giant in the anime which I never noticed in the manga that's for sure E: lmao that gay representation is fixed by having bored fans make literally everyone gay

Could a manga reader post the extended stuff from Bernholdt, Reiner, and Annie's original attack? I like to see the manga stuff they cut out and I'm not sure if anyone posted that one.

Surprisingly Dope posted:Could a manga reader post the extended stuff from Bernholdt, Reiner, and Annie's original attack? I like to see the manga stuff they cut out and I'm not sure if anyone posted that one. It's additional stuff on chapter 96 and a bit from the first part of 97. https://ww7.readsnk.com/chapter/shingeki-no-kyojin-chapter-096/ Goes a little deeper into their actions inside the walls and thought process behind them. I think it highly unlikely for the skipped elements to be addressed in the anime, since they're minor and with the pace the show's been going and focus shift to the Paradis cast it there's no good place for and little reason to do so. I liked the leadup to Reiner making out with his rifle much better in the manga.

It used to bug me when I was like 14 that all male relationships in fiction spawned a bunch of "They be loving" takes, but then I stopped reading bad fanfiction and my life has been immeasurably greater for it. I can't buy Levi and Erwin, Eren and Reiner is the real pair with a history.

As it happened I watched this episode last night, and I think that speech Eren gives Falco about the horror of war encapsulates his mindset perfectly. He knows what he's doing.

Eustace posted:Their relationship is intentionally vague enough that its open to any interpretation that suits your fancy. If you dont want it to be gay then its not gay, just dont freak out if people choose to interpret it differently I agree. Terper posted:You know I was going to write a snide comment and this post deserves it, but whatever.

Sentiments like yours are so backwards and ignorant it genuinely makes me angry. You should direct your anger at the author, who chose to keep things coy rather than affirm it. If the author has said outright it was a gay relationship, I would have certainly accepted it.

Pumped that my theory of Zeke sending a ship full of his folks was correct. I look forward to finding out how many years he's been planning to overthrow Marley and what it entails, because it can't stop with the rumbling. These episodes always feel like they're 15 minutes long. Did the manga chapters give the equivalent feeling?

Yup! And it's also a month between chapters. The build-up between the time skip and Eren's attack on Liberio was over a year.

That transition between Eren's shot and the bullet hitting Sasha is just some great stuff. You really feel the impact she had on all their lives and how much less bright their lives are for not having her in it.

Take this with a grain of salt, but I read somewhere on the internet that sasha's last word wasnt niku (meat). What she was trying to say was Niccolo

What she was trying to say was Niccolo As one of the people who likes that theory, it's (at most) a double meaning. Nico and Niku (meat) are pronounced slightly different, and the manga used the kanji (for concepts) rather than the katakana (for sounds). So, you know. It's possible, but nowhere near a lock.

I "lol'd" when she had those anime sparkles eyes™ looking up at Zeke in the Beast Titan and remembered that comment from here ITT. chiasaur11 posted:As one of the people who likes that theory, it's (at most) a double meaning.

I choose to believe she meant Nico now that we have flashbacks to reframe current context, but also because I'm a sucker for emotional anguish when it comes to bittersweet romance lololol.

Makes sense that Eren would be jailed for what he did. It could have ended up with others trying to kill Eren for his reckless actions leading to the death of Sasha and others. On a bright side at least those like Nicolo were given equal treatment by Sasha’s comrades and family members. It’s pretty much world war at this point ain’t it? And forced to use the Rumbling to keep Paradis from being air bombed to a smoldering crater?

I mean, is it really a Survey Corps mission if it doesn't end with Eren in jail? It's a cherished tradition at this point.

They're pretty much at the mercy of Eren's cooperation. Levi had a fighting chance to deal with a rogue Eren before he got the warhammer. Now? Not so much.

Annointed posted:Makes sense that [spoiler]Eren would be jailed for what he did. It could have ended up with others trying to kill Eren for his reckless actions leading to the death of Sasha and others. It's not exactly for his safety; he is a soldier who not only went AWOL, in doing so essentially stole a weapon of vital importance to his nation and then used it for a premeditated unsanctioned attack, forcing Paradis to launch an operation to support and recover him. Striking a superior officer is quaint by comparison.

Yeah Eren basically unilaterally ensured that peace was impossible. Of course negotiation wouldn't necessarily work but the other scouts were at least considering it.

Huh. Just realized how Onyankopon's little speech is another parallel to Eren's "We were born into this world". I mean, it's obvious, since that's one of the central themes of the whole series, but I just hadn't thought about it. It's an even more explicit framing of the mere act of being born as something inherently virtuous.

Felt like a spark of hope was snuffed out when there was a montage of "wow better things can be possible in Paradis." Like new food, industry, and not worry about being eaten by Titans anymore.
