Raindrops fall from the sky and spin short tales. Today as well, there is a new tale made by the rain, about a small bond formed somewhere below the sky. After the revolution within the wall, Trost district became the front line for humanity’s counterattack. Today, cold rain has been falling since early afternoon.

Erwin, accompanied by his horse, is sheltering from the cold rain drops on a backstreet, under the eaves of an empty house. His body, exhausted by daily hard work, bears the cold…old as he is, he sighs.

“Huh? Commander, do you take shelter from the rain in such a place?”

The owner of the familiar voice appears from the alleyway beside him.

She is a soldier from the Survey Corps, under Levi’s squad, who helped carry through the revolution…her name is for sure, Sasha Braus.

I can’t wait to see Hak allowing himself to be the passionate creature he is to the fullest extent.

He is holding himself back every second and he never has a negative thought about it because he’s so intrinsically modest and loving

Like his look is so passionate *melting into a puddle as I look at this frame*

Once he’s allowed to show his feelings, we’re all doomed and dead and shattered

Hak is so honorable, caring and respectful that he’s never gonna cross the line without Yona’s explicit consent which is amazing for a shoujo(where love=forceful passion) and honestly where do you get a guy like that that’s so HEALTHY bless Kusanagi

He’s very caring but he trusts her capabilities and never gets in her way even if it hurts him and he does his best to support her because that’s what love is.

He can die for her in a heartbeat but he knows that doesn’t give him the right to override her wishes and her heart and that kind of maturity is something we all should appreciate because how often do you see male leads doing so

I think the right kind of honourable and respectful love is something people are deeply missing these days and I’m glad Kusanagi is showing us what it is

Hanji would never shit on humanity and people inside the walls. Levi sees this as hell. And acted out of overwhelming personal feelings. Hanji loves Erwin a lot but would never turn their back on people who need the SC, and would have turned Erwin into a demon for the sake of the greater good. Levi chose to be kind to Erwin and cruel to everyone else, himself included. The goblin is fucking gone. He thinks that humanity isn’t worth hurting Erwin anymore. That it isn’t worth saving, even. He can turn out to be right. But Hanji clearly isn’t of the same opinion. 

This is why I think people are making it dumb. This is not a matter of loves who more, but of priorities and types of love. Hanji treasured Erwin deeply, and they are also the ones who openly admitted they can barely keep their sanity when thinking of losing people. But Levi’s love was just different. And it is also the kind of love that in tragedies kills everyone and their mother. Yams is the one who wrote this, and he better not make it nonsensical. it would be tremendously silly for Levi to move on after this. Erwin needed to be kept alive for the sake of humanity, and Levi chose not to. It means he doesn’t prioritize humanity. Not anymore, at least. Levi had a revelation on that roof and it happened only after EM did what they did and Flocke opened his mouth.  I remind you that before this Levi’s opinion was stated clearly and it was People fighting each other > hell with teh titans. Something something changed, I’m sure. He called this world Hell and said he freed Erwin. The implications are honestly terrible: Erwin is the only one who derves heaven and peace, the rest can suffer and burn in this hell of a world. He didn’t think himself and his own comfort, and in this he’s the opposite of EM, but he wasn’t selfless either. He was cruel to literally everyone except Erwin.

Now I spoil my Who is the real enemy post. The concept of the cruel world is so insistent I’m sure I don’t need to add anything or explain. But. Ymir was literally about to say it to Eren. Eren: Who is the enemy?  Ymir: If I had to tell, I would say it’d be (jpn) se- I’m convinced she was about to say either sekai = this world, because people live in it and their nature can’t change, or seijou that’s “the ways of the world” that is basically how the world works because of the ways people act by nature. You know… Uri, who i like to call the snk jesus, once he got to know the truth of the world and human history in its entirety, lost faith in humanity, called his bond with Kenny a miracle he thought he was just delusionally clinging onto and worked to build a paradise for the survivors. 

“Erwin is the only one who deserves heaven and peace, the rest can suffer and burn in this hell of a world.”

This line stirred me. Whatever anyone chooses to believe Levi loved and cared for Erwin deeply. The world vs Erwin and Levi chose Erwin. Despite their initial meeting, time and understanding created their bond:

“He was cruel to literally everyone except Erwin.”

All official material can attest to the above proving that Levi held Erwin very dear and close to his heart.

Levi is also like Uri, in a sense.

“Uri… once got to know the truth of the world and human history in its entirety, lost faith in humanity, called his bond with Kenny a miracle…”

Bertolt…

Bertolt

Honestly as broken hearted as I am for the other characters in this scene, I think I might have to give Bertolt my highest sympathies. 

How long has he had to be strong for Reiner while he struggled with the blood on their hands and started dissociating because of it? And in this moment, he could do nothing as Reiner let his emotions take control of him completely. Bertolt didn’t ask for any of this. He wasn’t ready for the world to know who and what he is. Reiner had a complete meltdown and Bertolt was tragically taken down that path with him (and I’m sure he holds no bad feelings toward Reiner for it, for the record). 

And Mikasa - a comrade and someone he considered a friend alongside the rest of the 104th - took no hesitation in slicing through his neck despite the last 3 years they all spent together. Bertolt may have been one of the people who deceived all of them but the look of pure shock and betrayal and fear on his face here also says a lot. Couple that with the fact that he was not at all prepared or ready for this reveal to happen.

Gladly, actually! Though let me preface what I’m about to say with a few qualifications. First, in no way is this analysis supposed to be objective; it’s purely subjective, in fact, and so, take it as my personal opinion. And second, keep in mind that after Levi and Jean, Sasha is my favorite character. I truly adore her. 

And with that said, Gabi’s actions were, in a sense, logical and, certainly, justifiable. 

I don’t know if it is willful ignorance or lack of honest thought to the subject that has led quite a few to overlook what happened to that girl, but it’s worth mentioning just what took place that evening from her perspective. Among so many of her compatriots who perished, she watched a soldier who was trying to round up and rescue civilians shot in the head right in front of her eyes, the beast titan decimated and blown to pieces, also right in front of her eyes, Pieck left broken and bleeding, possibly unable to pull herself together, the hammer titan bled dry and eaten, the jaw titan torn apart, and Reiner left very near catatonic in the end. 

If that, all that, isn’t considered trauma, then I don’t know what is. 

The fact that she would grab a weapon, the fact that she would try to retaliate, the fact that she would attempt to exact some sort of vengeance for everyone she lost that night, especially given her propensities, makes sense.

In the end, the person who paid the price for this anger was Sasha, but it could have been anyone else, and the point of the matter was that Gabi is hardly to blame here, and I don’t understand how a mere child, who lived through so much trauma, could be a called a bitch, a snake, and any other number of unflattering terms in this fandom that would then turn around and defend the actions of a nineteen-year-old Eren who is at the age of majority by even modern standards and should know better than to force decisions on others because he still can’t seem to grasp the fact that his idea of revenge and progress isn’t everyone else’s. Seems a bit hypocritical to me, so I’m with Jean on the issue. 

There are two sides in any war, and loyalties make people view events from differing perspectives, and I think in the end, no matter who a soldier is, no matter how strong a soldier is, all it takes is one unlucky bullet to end it all. If an individual is willing to take that risk, then so be it, but to take that risk on behalf of someone else is unconscionable, and Eren took that risk on behalf of the entire Survey Corps.

Connie at snk 105 is the one that broke my heart the most…

TUMBLR | TWITTER | FACEBOOK | PIXIV | PATREON

Heard some important information on Twitter today, and thought I’d post it here for anyone who may not have heard it. This is actually a thing, devised by human rights organisation called Karma Nirvana.

The difference between Falco and Gabi’s attitudes could be chalked up to Falco being kinder and more considerate and Gabi more hot-headed, but while true, I think that’s simplifying it. 

Gabi had just witnessed her friends killed in front of her eyes, and even people who were good to her were shot down for apparently no reason. She saw the direct consequences of the Survey Corps’ actions, and so all she could see was the enemies’ crimes and ruthless evil.

Meanwhile Falco was in the basement, following the conversation of two men he had come to know and respect, and seeing that they were truly the same - human in all the ways it could be possible, both good and bad. He was never tainted by hate or a personal vendetta since he never saw the bloodshed the Survey Corps rained down. What he saw made him doubt all that he’s been taught about Marley and Paradis.

And yeah, Isayama has truly showed how biased and even hypocritical we all are when it comes to what we love and our own sense of righteousness.

Mikasa saw with her own eyes how Eren’s rampage killed hundreds of innocents, and yet she flinched when he was kicked in the teeth by Levi

Connie admitting that even though brave soldiers had died and their sacrifice called ‘heroic and worthy’, he could not bear to see his friends share the same fate 

Jean who hesitated briefly (or barely hesitated) to fire at a child to get to a target earlier, but now shot at Gabi with vehemence after Sasha was hit and injured

Floch feels completely justified compromising countless innocent civilians by saying that they deserved it for being the one who attacked Paradis first, when those Marleyan innocents no more ‘deserved’ to die than Carla Jaeger or the people who were eaten by Titans (again, because their ancestors had committed a crime against Marley etc).

Just like the fandom, or a part of the fandom, can start hating Gabi and Falco (and indeed it’s difficult not to after Sasha’s death) but no one is complaining as much when Sasha and the SC sniped down those soldiers because they were nobody’s favourite character, even if for all we know they could be to those kids what Hannes was to EMA. That is the reality of who we are.

You can point out the differences, but before you say it, ask yourself if that is your own bias and self-righteousness speaking. When people we love, the things we value are ripped away from us for no apparent reason, we all feel compelled to think that the perpetrators are just inherently evil. We want justice and we want retribution, because are we really willing to accept the deaths of our loved ones as collateral damage of a cruel world? 

You have missed the ENTIRE point of the series.

And the entire point that we spent so many chapters with the Marley Crew.

We are meant to like AND dislike both sides for the same exact reasons.
