    I think it’s unfortunate that some of her lines from the manga were cut from the anime. Individually they seem small, but over the course of the whole story, they give Mikasa more layers.

      Exactly people just overlook the fact that she is way more meticulous, talkative and intelligent in the manga. The anime either reduced or removed many of her essential moments and interactions from the manga that she contributed to in the storyline.

    I loved that intro very much, Mikasa Ackerman is one of if not the most mislabelled and misunderstood characters in AOT. She is just as layered and flawed as every character in this show but this is always used to disingenuously criticise and demean her character by a vocal minority who hated the ending and are still not to terms with it but I’m glad videos like yours exist to shine a light on her and give her the props she deserves

    Thanks for this video I agree she has high popularity but the haters are just loud so you come across them more often. I liked what you said about the world changing around her while she stayed the same. It reminds me of that talk she had with armin and eren about "going back to those days" she wants everything to be how they were but sadly the world showed her in the most cruel way possible that it can't happen. That's why her "decision'' means a lot to me.

      I think the reason we didn’t get more from Eren was because he needed to, in order to do the rumbling. You may be thinking he only did this as an adult, and so him ignoring her as a teen was just him not loving her. However, Eren put the thought of trampling the world since the day he was born, and directed the smiling titan to kill his mother. So I think older Eren had put the idea in younger Eren that he had to push away Mikasa the same way he influenced himself into the rumbling. Do I love Mikasa’s and Eren for
      relationship? No, but is it kinda reasonable? yes

    That video was amazing, man. It expresses very well the style of the character and the whole aspect that Isayama put well enough into her and I agree with basically everything. However, despite understanding and making sense, it doesn't mean that I like the direction of the character, her best point is still the most frustrating throughout the entire narrative and I wish her bitter ending (Does anyone have any doubts if Will she have a tragic ending, win or lose to Eren?) has a bittersweet, horror story tone (Oh guy, I got too attached to that translation of Eren's line in episode 24), anyway, your AoT videos are always very interesting

    mikasa is one of the unfortunate souls who happen to fall for eren..
    but i love her more when she finally get rid of him..
    no matter how much anyone justify eren's heroism and pain for his choices (he is not that smart at the first place to even decide whats good or not actually.. so i dont blame him.. he just happen to have power.. period).. he knows he's fucked up anyway..

      Sure, she got rid of Eren but it shattered her spirit in the process. He was the love of her life and killing him destroyed her beyond repair. She never married and only adopted a child to stave off the loneliness of Eren's death at her hands.

    I think her not changing or evolving one little bit even after everything,( in a bad way ) is what makes her a rather bad character and heavily critiqued
    Her only words are ereh even after growing up. it's like her body kept growing but her mentality/brain hasn't grown one bit
    Season 4 everything is so complicated ( more than ever ) and interesting, especially Eren, and then there's Mikasa same as always with no thoughts or meaningful dialogue
    Stagnant is the best description of her
    It's disappointing to the point of frustration
