Adulting is hard. Cartoons make it better.

Watching this show week to week or reading the manga month to month must have been BRUTAL

And from an "artistic" standpoint, there's a lot to be said for consuming this whole series over the course of a week or so. The abject terror that the people of Paradis experience, the sheer cruelty of the narrative towards anyone and everyone in the story, it's A LOT. And by the time Season 3 rolls around you're so numb to the violence. Not unaffected by it, but literally so spent that when your brain/body tries to react there's nothing left in the tank.

Then you get to Season 4 and when you learn Eren's final plan. I haven't finished the series yet (only 7ish episodes to go), but when The Big Reveal for Eren's plans happened, I didn't feel surprised or scared. My first reaction was complete agreement with his course of action. And it felt SO uncomfortable to be in a mental place where Eren Jaeger was making sense.
