eren supremacy

Your right he is upset about that but what I showed clearly he says "its more than saving eldia" "I wanted it all to disappear " & in chapter 130 when finding about the rumbling he clearly says "no this is what I wanted"

Freedom is just part of erens nature that was something that he was born with thsts why in ch139 when armin asks why? Eren says idk he disent know why he's obsessed with the concept of freedom and we get a glimpse of grisha telling baby eren that he is free. We also see this as a wake up call for eren from armin & to see it not like he imagined it was dissapointing only for it to be enemies.

omg no! don’t stress yourself out like that anon!!

okay, i’m going to be real with the japanese language learning community: you all are doing waaaaaaaay too much when it comes to kanji.

there. i said it.

learning kanji does not have to be a headache!

i spent the first 6 months of my japanese learning “career” (for lack of a better word) trying to figure out the best way to learn kanji because every website and book was like “here’s the kunyomi, here’s the onyomi, now learn them both” but the fine print of that learning method says “you’re going to f*cking struggle”

but then i started realizing that kanji i read all of the time, i didn’t even “properly” study like those articles said. i didn’t know the kunyomi and onyomi for 行 for ages, but i knew it was read いく in 行く and こう in words like 旅行 and 直行. because i learned those words in context and on their own.

a few months after i came to japan, i started asking japanese people how they learned kanji and every single one of them answered the same way: they learn through vocabulary. i once asked my boyfriend how he learned kanji in grade school, and he said that they were basically given a kanji, and then they were given a list of vocabulary that included that kanji. they then memorized the vocabulary and grew to know the kunyomi and onyomi readings.

which, spoiler: kunyomi and onyomi is not always an accurate measure. lots of compounds use the kunyomi, some of them add dakuten (as in ちゅうごく instead of ちゅうこく in 中国), and others add っ (as in ちょっこう instead of ちょこう in 直行). this really isn’t something you can just magically guess.

but it’s important to remember that everyone learns differently. i don’t learn individual kanji – i learn kanji within various vocabulary words. i make sure to get as much exposure to the various ways a single kanji can appear within a larger compound, so 高 is not just a single kanji, but it is 高い and 高校生 and 高価.

i do, however, think it’s important to understand the meaning of a kanji. this can help you decipher the meaning of a word you don’t know yet. for example, 高価 (こうか) means “high price.” 高 means high and 価 means price. knowing their meaning individually can help decipher the meaning.

in this way you can argue that yes, knowing the individual readings of these two kanji makes guessing the reading of this word easier, but 価 can also be read “ke"! you can’t guarantee an accurate reading all of the time, but with more and more exposure to individual kanji, you will be able to tell.

which brings me to my main point: learning kanji is an individual experience. i, personally, think that learning onyomi and kunyomi readings for 2,000+ jouyou kanji is a HUGE WASTE OF TIME, but there are a lot of people out there that do this methodically and know lots and lots of kanji and vocabulary. i, personally, need kanji in a larger vocabulary word in order for it to stick, and my brain just catalogues the various readings away. that’s how my brain works and learns, but it’s not how everyone else works and learns. 

it’s important to find what works for you.

that being said, if you’re just starting out i highly recommend Jakka. it’s a website meant for japanese grade school teachers and has tons of grade school kanji material broken up into their appropriate grades. japanese school children are expected to learn and master a certain amount of kanji + vocabulary each grade level, so if you’d really like to learn like a child, learn like the school children do! (the website is in japanese but fairly simple to navigate.)

that whole final act of the movie where he starts accepting his own fear, and understanding the negative effect his vengeance has had on gotham city, and seeing the importance in love. that whole montage of him lifting children out of rubble and holding the hands of scared, injured civilians and smiling comfortingly at them even though he’s covered in dirt and has a whole city full of people left to save after them. that individual kindness he gives them all. the way he doesn’t so much as hesitate to throw himself into the flood to save them. 

that’s batman. that’s who batman has always been, at least from my perspective, and i’m so glad they’re finally putting it on the screen properly. i got so sick and tired of seeing comics and movies and games etc where bruce is portrayed as this cold, brutal, downright villainous character - he should be scary, and strong, and sometimes a little violent, but overall he should be caring. batman is terrifying to the people who deserve to be scared, and comforting to those he saves. batman was the hero i looked out of my bedroom window and daydreamed about coming to save me from all my problems when i was little, because i knew i’d be safe with him.

and you know what he did in return? he started picking people up and helping them to safety. he started calming people’s fear instead of worsening it. he started healing the wound he’d accidentally deepened.
