It can be a masterpiece and still have flaws. Nothing in this world is perfect.

If its a masterpiece there should be basically no flaws and if so very minor ones.

Neo2425 said:

Rlly. Tell me some animes u consider masterpiece and I’ll tell u bunch of flaws.

ichikasolos said:

This is difficult but i’ll list some shows but this may be biased, Owarimonogatari S2, Mob Psycho S2, Steins Gate and the Classroom of the Elite light novel Y1 and Y2.

Neo2425 said:

Classroom of elite? That anime is just a bunch of high schoolers doing adult things. Insane sexualization In that show.

ichikasolos said:

Bro I said light novel the anime is ok but the light novel is arguably a masterpiece, also it’s PG-13 what sexualisation?

Neo2425 said:

I never watched that anime I’m not going to judge.

Yeah. Annie was forgiven way too easily. Moreso than Reiner.
Honestly at this point, so much shit has happened during the rumbling that no one has time to properly reprimand Annie for her actions.
Also, I don't understand what the point of that pie scene reunion was lol. It felt like a rom-com to appeal to the Annie X Armin shippers out there.

I think Masterpiece is Fullmetal Alchemist

They forgave everyone else too so why not her, plus she had reasons from her perspective to justify her actions

time heals all wounds. probably didn’t affect them as much years after it happened. also they had a common enemy so they sorted out their differences

i don’t know that she was forgiven. i think the whole point of attack on titan is that no one is necessarily the bad guy and no one is necessarily the hero. the people who are painted as heroes are indeed not heroes (Ex.eren). and the people painted as villains are indeed not villains (Ex. Reiner). So when it comes the the alliance formed against eren during the rumbling, i think annie was more accepted for her power and what she could contribute rather than them forgiving her for everything that she’s done. the campfire episode went over this all very clearly.

so i can see how you may say she was forgiven too easily but if you look at it from that perspective, i don’t think they forgave her at all (except maybe armin) but rather they realized they’re all people who have made mistakes and killed others and in that moment they needed her help to fight the big problem and that was more important than personal feelings.

it's a case of "bigger things to worry about". What Eren is about to do is far more worrisome than what Annie has done, plus most of the main cast didnt witness Levi Squad dying first hand, just Levi and Eren.

They had this talk in the latest season by the bonfire.
I guess for her destruction of everything she cared about would be enough of a punishment.
Also, they really need her Female Titan.

SystemEight said:
Eren and the gang didn't really hate Annie for her betrayal did they? They just felt really sad (because she is their friend and classmate) and Eren became pissed later on. Even when Annie was frozen Armin still visited her whereas Reiner and Bertholdt got hate because they are the ones who killed Eren's mom and caused the whole ruckus.
So, it makes sense that they forgave her sooner and they already overcame the deaths of their comrades so they didn't really feel that angry for killing the scouts and the Levi squad. She was seen more like someone forced in Reiner's scheme.

I don't think she was forgiven at all. Neither was Reiner. If all of them are working together as an alliance, it doesn't mean that they like each other. Heck, some of them even had hatred against little kids up until the fire camp scene. It's just an alliance, not a friend group. The classic "enemy of my enemy is a friend" trope. It's not about forgiveness for the alliance, it's just about having the same goal, to stop their former friend/ally from destroying the entire world.

dark_knight107 said:

And, I don't get how such a simple detail is complicated and hated by many for no reason.

PikaboyTK said:

That probably has to do with "protagonist love" or something. I mean, Eren is still the main guy. So people who like Eren are just supporting whatever shit he's doing, even large scale genocide. Anyone against Eren, like the Alliance, are seen as stupid I guess, for not understanding "the reason".

Neo2425 said:
I have such a problem with how Annie was forgiven. She basically killed a bunch of scouts, killed Levi squad, and not only she killed them, she played around with them like fidget spinners. Also she not only was to easily forgiven by the scouts, she was too easily forgiven by Reiner. So Annie doesn’t kill Armin who then ends up devouring Berthodlt and Reiner has no problem with her not going with the mission?

kizuyomi said:

Yes, Annie did infact kill many and was also forgiven forgiven easily. I am assuming they wanted Annie's help or they just didn't want Eldians to fights against each other or they just didn't want a war at all or all of the above and Most of the people in the anti Eren squad is pro life. One team has very high morality and inclination to coexistence and the other team just wants to exterminate their enemies and an inclination to "peace".


This is not really a flaw in the story. I believe it to be "flaw" in Human nature. They were probably tired of all of this war and just wanted to end it all in their own way and hence Eren and Anti Eren groups were formed.
