Hey, they don't even have electricity. And they are shown as leaving deep footprints / knocking down buildings when falling on them--it's only the dead ones that are lightweight (they evaporate). Or it could be a plot hole.

I think the idea is just that they're comparatively very lightweight for an organic being of that size, rather than being literally light as paper. Otherwise the cannons would probably be a lot more effective as weapons as well, tearing titans into little pieces no matter where they hit.

It does answer the question of how an upscaled humanoid can actually support itself at least, something most stories involving giants don't really bother with.

I guess it does answer it with: "Shut up its manga"? Ohhhh so thats how the giant humanoids can support themselves, by not following the rules of biology and science!

I guess I find it easier to suspend my disbelief for "it's magic" than for "we didn't really think about it and neither should you". v :shobon:
