With the series coming to an end and Mikasa taking on a larger and larger role in the story, what do you think about the state of her character ?

Mary Sue and basically just an Eren's guard dog, who's entire role is to be badass action girl and doesn't start to develop maybe until after Eren turns evil.

I mean- anime made her scream EREH ×100 more times more than she actually did in the manga, so in my eyes she became boring and plain character who only cares about Eren. At first I liked Mikasa, she was badass and one of the best females in aot, but at this point tbh I feel like she's just an air

She was cool the first couple of seasons but she fell off. I feel like the writer didn't know what to do about her character because Eren didn't really need a love interest and her 'love' was borderline dependency because he is the only familiarity through the years. I mean they couldve developed her more but her skills were more for action as she was overpowered [but with no good reason = mary sue]. I don't know how they can give her a bigger role though. Armin has always been my favorite because he has always been a tactician but optimistic. Misaka never really changed

A very great character in the manga, who got butchered in the anime thanks to WiT studio but even if anyone watched the anime, I still don't understand how they reached to all the obsession/simp claims. Will never make any sense to me.

I think she's my favorite character in AoT, she carries the fight scenes, she's just so incredibly badass, and I really like her subtle story arc, especially towards the end.

I'm kinda shocked how many people suddenly hate Mikasa, she was literally a fan favorite along with Levi, and she's also one of the most beloved and popular female anime characters with +53k favorites, seems very weird to me how she's considered bad all of a sudden.

Please don't spread this misinformation and headcanons.
Isiyama literally confirmed, that Hange's actual gender will never be confirmed, which doesn't make Hange in any way part of LGBT.

I've been liking her less and less ever since the time skip between 3rd and final season, and not just because of her still okay but definitely worse appearance. Her character changed pretty randomly from Eren being her top priority and her willing to cut down anyone friend or foe to protect him, to being very wishy-washy and not really knowing what she's doing. Like after Sasha died and Connie was shitting on Eren she did a poor job defending him and seemed legit unsure whether to side with Eren or fucking Connie. This was all before any of the rumbling stuff or the talk with Eren where he cut her and Armin off.
Then the military was trying to execute him, she was barely doing anything still and when Eren broke himself out Mikasa was all shocked and again unsure who to side with. Why does she even give a shit about their military dictatorship government that's using Historia like a puppet and trying to kill Eren? Season 1 Mikasa would have happily sliced them all down herself. When Eren was first revealed as a titan potentially all of humanity was their enemy and she sided with him without hesitation.

Another reason I like her less now is she was a total dick to that one girl that she saved back in S1 for literally no reason. It might make some sense if she feels guilty for inspiring her to become a soldier putting her in more danger but that's not it since even on her deathbed Mikasa was just: "Scarf please, fuck you, bye bye.". Like why the fuck was she THAT antagonistic towards her? She literally didn't destroy the scarf going against Eren's orders and gave information while she was there dying. How about a "Thank you. I'm sorry. I didn't mean for you to end up like this when I saved you. I wanted you to live a normal life that I wasn't able to."
Could have actually been a good scene but I don't know what the fuck we actually got.

All that said, I still love Mikasa. Literally nothing she does now is gonna erase how awesome she was in seasons 1-3. And I don't even mind where she's at right now during these final chapters. Trying to stop Eren without killing him. How she got here might have been messy as fuck but I don't think this position is out of character for her. She's still trying to protect Eren, just from himself this time. Can't wait to see how this epic story ends.

She's to Eren what Pikachu is to Ash, or what Star Platinum is to Jotaro. The difference is there's nothing cool or interesting about her whatsoever, not to mention the unbelievable stuff after 138 lmfao

I wasn't talking about character design. I was talking about how WiT had completely replaced all her dialogues and interactions with the word 'Eren' and skipped so many important panels and monologues which were crucial to her character. They destroyed her in the anime and I'll keep blaming them for this till the end of time.

And btw for me post time skip or more like MAPPA's Mikasa >>> WiT Mikasa.
Manga Mikasa clears anime Mikasa anyways lol.

AOT was among my first starter animes way back in 2020 and at that time I liked Mikasa a lot

Her character design was pretty, her action scenes were cool and she was a dream girl to me at that timr, however as I progressed in the story and after having a decent amount of experience in anime media, I could tell that her potential was wasted and she couldn't get a proper development besides giving up herself for the Eren's sake

However that doesn't mean that she is a bad character, she is an above average character imo in the decorated AOT caste which contains a lot of great characters & thus Mikasa just couldn't stood up among the likes of Eren, Erwin, Levi, Hange, Magath, Floch, etc. She did her job in the story and her presence actually made a difference in a lot of places so there is no way her character wasn't Impactful or irrelevant either way

I think she's an okay character that gets a bit better near the end.

I have only read the Manga post Time skip. I hear her character is more expanded in the Manga Pre Time Skip so that might be it.

There are things that the story tries to explore through her character. Like Blind loyalty /love vs Morality.
The cost of selfish love. Can your love for one person be above the greater good.

But it seems like the story never fully explores it or dives into it.

Making Mikasa an okay character.

I love her, but I can see why people don't like her. I still like her because back in S1 she was smart and basass and I saw her as one of the few hopes for humanity. Also, I love how she was the key for the ending

Amen to that. I don't even see a reason why Eren needed love interest. Like they could be siblings as far as I care (which would be cool tbh) cause sure af that Isayama didn't know how to lead and develop their relationship.
She is bland and her personality never even changed as it always have been ereh ๐Ÿคง

She’s just male Levi. Both overhyped by their fans for just being badass. Besides that, they don’t got much going on for them.

But that doesn’t mean they’re badly written. They’re just bland, especially compared to the top characters in this series.

Don't spread misinformation. Isayama himself said that he woukd never say Hange's gender, which means it could be either male or female, we will never know.

Lmao you should never take that wiki seriously, a female says hi to another girl and that people assumes they are lesbian. Hange's gender has never been revealed by Isayama and that doesn't give them the right to say it's LGBT.

@ishinashi266  lol dude says he is a conservative yet supports this bs of branding every character as "transgender" or as having a "queer identity". I don't understand why it's such an interesting subject to some people. Like who cares about the deep hidden lore according to which hange was actually a guy all along ? She is a fctional character, she doesn't exist and this stuff is totaly irrelevant to the story.
