Something I never understood was the absolute hate for floch everyone seems to have and why

Since Erwin died its almost as if two people embody Erwin one being Armin and the other Floch Armin is pretty representative of Erwins creativity that made him such a revolutionary in restructuring the Survey Core and Floch representing Erwins drive to never stop just think of the scene where Erwins arm is bitten off and despite that he continues to yell charge.

Also Floch and Armin are both good representations of survivors guilt with Floch needing a reason to justify why he was the one to escape out of the hundreds that had died which was in his mind to save Erwin and after he doesn't he dedicates everything to destroying the enemies of Eldia with his guilt driving him forward in that pursuit while Armin basically bears heavy guilt as the one who was brought back always doubting that he was the right one to be brought back to life.

So I'll reiterate why do people hate Floch?

I think mainly it’s because of what happens in the manga really I don’t think it’s because of Erwin that was a natural reaction of a natural naive soldier who doesn’t know anything about war

I have read the manga and I still dont get why people hate him he has clear reasons for what he does and clear motivation that motivates him to do what he does

, never liked anyone from the new place anyways, maybe because there was little to no character development. I really couldn’t care less if the kids die, there taught that the island people are demons and all of this other stupid crap, so yeah.

He may have clear motivation to do so but still there are people with opposite personalities who think he doesnt or doesn’t understand ,it’s really what goes in their favors really , even Levi and Jean got their share of the audience’s hate for abandoning eren even tho when u think about it their decision really was reasonable considering what they been through and what their personalities are like

thats a good point to make I think my problem is when people hate and call characters garbage just because they don't like what they're doing I think a favorite example is Shiapouf from Hunter x Hunter

Not everyone hates Floch if you look around you will actually find quite a number of people who like him, including me.

Cool beans i find his character to be the opposite of armin and sort of the divergent path armin suffers guilt from being the one chosen and floch has guilt that he wasn’t able to save Erwin

People generally hate realistic characters who have balls to say things that no one has the balls to say.
For example: Rossiu from gurren Lagaan.

Anime was it's best 20000 years ago, when cavemen drew art with real depth.
Modern anime is all garbage. I miss great old days of anime.

What the hell this thread doing in first season?
"I think I wanted to attack something. Like betraying people or hurting people. And, well, it's not exactly nice, but hurting the readers too... In all honestly, I feel that's what I really wanted to do. For me, as a reader, when I think, "this manga will remain in my heart," it means, for example, it phenomenally hurt me: It's those kinds of experiences I'm after." - Pajime Hisayama (My favourite hurting author).

Yeah were talking about Floch as in the dude from season 3 who was apart of erens class of graduates and joined the survey core before the fight with beast titan
