Shingeki no Kyojin: The Final Season - Kanketsu-hen Episode 2 Discussion

If you are talking about Ymir I think the show was trying to show how Ymir was never able to free herself from king Fritz and her feelings towards him even if she knew he was a massive a-hole. That's where Mikasa comes in. She was able to kill Eren even if she loved him and that's why Eren said that Mikasa was the key for Ymir.

Where TF are ya'll watching this

It still isn't out on Crunchy in Australia yet

People doesn't know what a raw is anymore?

I'm surprised so many people like it. I'm pretty indifferent to the ending but I remember the shit storm when the manga ended haha

@MugiwaraJopa I had more fun reading this than experiencing the ending.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Attack on Titan. The symbolism is extremely kino, and without a brilliant mind on narrative formation most symbolism will go over a typical reader's head. There's also the fact that birds often times symbolize freedom, which is subtlety woven into Isayama's storytelling- his personal philosophy that birds are free draws heavily from Nietzche's body of existentialism. Many people who insult Armin simply do not understand how complex and smart of a character it is, and it is truly sad. You see, there are bad things in life, but there can also be good things. The leaf that Armin holds up is also a motif for nature, which all life stems from (stems also are part of trees btw).

Many people who have a good sense of humor on MAL clearly don't understand this and it upsets me that they make fun of Armin so much, so the only reason that can be is because they just do not understand this very complex body of thought. One can only presume (that is the smart version of 'assume' btw) that they only evaluate the symbolism of the umi da on a surface level, and not the deep complexities to how this can connect to Nardodnaya Volya literature. The depths of this symbolism can also be attributed to birds flying high means they are free (this is called a full circle, which isn't a polygon btw).

When Armin says 'umi da' he isn't just saying life can also have good things. You see Zeke is very sad, and baseballs make him happy, so Armin is also saying happy is a good thing. Zeke never once thought this in his life so when Zeke said "ooohh wow" that was him actualizing himself as an individual (this is very subtle, most MAL won't get this except for me and a few intellectuals). Zeke is a monke, and monke are on the ground (not free), trees are above ground (leaf) so they are more free, and birds are above trees (so most free).

I pity people with good senses of humor that make far better memes about Eren, and Chads like Floch and their enormous cocks. We intellectuals support the alliance and armin because we understand that our cocks may be small, but that is because all of our essence (not evanescence, that is a band) went into our brains. So while our dicks may be small, we can handle the complex narratives of this shonen. I feel bad for them because they can't see how deep these literary devices proliferate when one can motivate their mind to the highest degree. Idiots. Also, guess what? I think genocide is bad, and even though this is fiction I am so ethical that I still don't support it here. I am morally superior and you just don't get that, so try to keep up sweetie 😂

And yes, by the way, i DO have a Shingeki no Kyojin tattoo (this is Attack on Titan in japanese). ANd no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate they understand the complex symbolism of birds and leaves are comparable to my own beforehand. Nothin personnel yeagerists. 😎

Wtf is this forum lol. How MAL end up becoming more toxic than Twitter/X ???

How does EM shippers contribute? They literally got what they wanted LOL. And it technically is the genuine reaction and most of the reactions is negative not because of animation but because the story ending is written so badly and everyone expected they would flesh it out or change but got the same badly written with the same badly paced way in manga…

@ZXEAN

you must be new here or something lmao
