Thanks for watching :)
I believe he's a traitor of the highest order, and someone that is blinded by delusions of morality, self pity, and plain stupidity. He's not as bad as Zeke, but he's just as vile for betraying people that genuinely care for him, for the sake of a useless mother that treats him as a token, a nation that despises him, and a people without calibre or any value. There's nothing much to admire about Reiner, just trash that outlived his usefulness. I can understand his loyalty to Marley when he's a child. But as he grew older? No sympathy left for me to traitors.
It’s one of the better written characters of the story, i really enjoyed his development through the chapters. How ever i cannot not mention the infamous “moved my conscience to my balls” episode. And like many other alike moments in the story only left a sour taste.
He was just about victim of the war state Marley was. Gladly at the end kind of found peace.
I liked his character a lot, he was my second favourite but the Ymir from seasons 1 and 2 will always be my favourite character. Reiner had such an interesting reveal about his mind in season 2 and I loved it. I do agree with AldrianCG’s dislike of the “moved my consciousness to the rest of my body” but overall his character was so interesting. I mostly feel bad for him because of the intense brainwashing and indoctrination he experienced in his childhood to hate Eldians and worship Marley, and seeing him in season 4 was depressing with how he lost the will to live. I am glad he could repair the relationships with his friends and with his mom. I just cannot get over the fact that he literally has the plot armour titan, he nearly died 5-6 times across the serious if not more. Seriously, isayama didn’t have to put Reiner into so many life threatening situations, and for him to survive every time was a bit absurd for me especially in season 3 and 4.
TLDR I like him and he was a great character but there are a few plot issues surrounding him, but it doesn’t ruin who he is but rather the situations he is in.
Also, I have a request, only if you want to and have the time of course, but could you do a video on Ymir from season 1 and 2. Only if you want to.
Reiner is my favorite character
I remember hating Reiner just like Eren only to find out he was my favorite character
I’ve always loved Reiner he was my favourite character before I even found out he was a titan
I remember being glad that they finally got Bertholdt but everyone online was saying how sad it was because of what we learn in season 4
The Jaime Lannister of AOT
@@Spongebrain97 not really 😂 everyone loved Reiner at the start of the show 😂
@@razzaman1625 and then hated him and then slowly grew to like him again. So Im saying he's on par with Jaime Lannister with being the morally complex character whom the audience has different perceptions of as the story goes on
Reiner has always been legitimately tragic to me. As well as Annie, and Bert. Of course none of what I'm saying excuses what they did. They still made the individual choices they did. But they were all just kids. I can't help but imagine that Reiner, Bert, and Annie could have lived fuller and better lives if they weren't forced into the military as children. Its so heartbreaking.
Oh but there is one, and a big one. Child soldiers brainwashed by a war state are only victims too.
Kinda hard to blame them when they were just children who spent their whole lives being emotionally abused, fully believed marleyan devil propaganda about how they were saving the world and knew that if any of them disobeyed and refused to commit mass murder them and their families would be turned to titans and killed in the battlefield. I mean what reason did they have to not do what they did besides sparing the lives of the paradisian inhuman monsters who they believed deserved to die anyway (and should I add who they blamed for destroying the lives of them and their people because they had the same blood)?
Reiner knew Eren was the last person who should have the power of the coordinate. He said so. He recognized in Eren what he saw in himself.
They both started their journey at opposite ends of some spectrum. They met in the middle, and then they both kept going until they found themselves where the other one started.
oh nice catch
Reiner went from being big bro in the beginning, to crazy bastard, to moon knight to tramua soldier who was still a soldier fighting for people who wanted him dead.
Man it sucks to be him because you saw what he went through and can't help but feel sympathy.
It's about to be a decade since the dub of season 1 came on toonami, man good times.
Reiner needed a hug
Reiner, the man so tired to even die, damn what a good writting
PS: The suplex that Gabi gives to Falco, perfection
There is a reason he is the best character in Attack on Titan, and one of my favorite characters in any media ever. His entire story, his fall, his redemption, his introspection, his guilt, his atonement, and how in the end he’s alive and happy striving to bring peace to the world. Just a fucking masterfully written and amazing character.
Also, when his mom validates him and finally sees the error in her ways in the finale, I bawled my eyes out. Such a fucking awesome moment.
Him and his evil mom live
But better characters then them are dead ? Caused the wall to fall, titans entered devouring people and kids and erens mother . Had the wall not broken no dead mom , no time loop, no rumbling.
And people like this shite ?
The immorality is strong in this fandom
@@sppotterstark8057exactly 😂🤦🏾♂️
@@sppotterstark8057 Let’s not forget that all of it had been Eren’s plan since the beginning.
@@sppotterstark8057 womp womp
My fav character since season 1, I always knew there was sumnthin up with him but I used to love his big brotherly vibe even when he outed himself as a "traitor" I KNEW there was a reason behind everything and each season he just kept getting better and better ugh I love this man sm
Sage-drops an AOT video.
Me-stops everything I’m doing. *pulls the car over in the middle of a storm*
Finding your solace in the rain, I see
One of the most compelling characters in fiction. Started as a big bro who was sometimes comic relief, comes out that he was the enemy from the start, makes a lot of us hate him and want him destroyed, then makes us fully understand his story and empathize/pity him, then he finally becomes a true hero at the end.
The fact that he wants to die but isn’t allowed to is a stroke of genius from Isayama. He has to live and suffer with what he did but still move forward towards peace.
I'm glad that you finally did a reiner episode 😢
The goat Reiner
Man, to think Reiner was basically considered a side character but had enough development in the series to be like a secondary main protagonist like Eren's trio. Guy just wanted to be like a hero wanting a better life for his family and the way he felt so much guilt since the incident at Paradis showed he's not just some villain we saw him back in season 2.
He's definitely my favorite.
Reiner was always my favorite character even before I knew he was the armored because he was strong but still was one of the few people who respected Eren's determination early on and supported him. Even after finding out who he was, you later learn about his troubled past like his delusional mother and trash deadbeat father. He's also the only person from Marley who's truly remorseful for what he's done, which really showed when he almost killed himself, unlike Annie and Bertholt.
Um, Berthold died too soon to put this burden on him. It seems a bit unfair to judge him when he didn't have those 4 years to reflect like Reiner did. Annie, however, had a great deal of time to see that she did wrong, but told Hitch that she would have done what she did all over again. She had no growth whatsoever. She should have had to be held accountable just like Reiner
I absolutely love Reiner. No other character in media to me has shown so many different facets and nuances of war, culture and the strain of existential uncertainty
Really interesting analysis on the Plot Armor Titan! I never realised some of the parallels you mentioned with Eren as well.
plot armor titan lmao
Thank you so much for this! What i love about Reiner's character is how he believed he would gain everything as a child only to find his own destruction, how he fell from grace to kick and claw his way out of hell and become the man he wanted to be. Thank you for this. You really did Reiner justice.
Freaking amazing analysis of his character. I finally finished watching the whole series and there’s so much to unpack with the whole cast. I hope you make more attack on titan character breakdowns. Awesome video 🔥🙏🏼
I hated this guy untill i saw the ending and realized he was the goat all along
It's interesting how both Eren and Reiner have opposite kind of parents, yet ended up in parallel. One is all embracing, the other always putting a condition on her love. It's nature versus nurture, but they're both dominated by self hatred that pushes them to move forward to justify their crimes.
Who knew going into the show that, someday, this man would become both the catalyst for so much pain and misery, but also a fan favorite despite it?
Isayama truly is a GOAT.
Everyone born into this world is special, therefore no one is actually special.
One video I would like to see from you is Eren and Mikasa’s relationship. Seriously I’d think it be a great video made from a guy like you.
i needed this today. thank you sage
Reiner has always been my favourite character in AOT. I always loved his protector's vibe. I thought his character was so well written, best development in my eyes. His resolve in his mission, and then guilt and psychological state showing us his duality, leading to his redemption and complete devotion to stopping the Rumbling and the Hallucigenia... If he had one bit of this resolve before, he would have wiped out Eren when he was still only the attack titan. Best AOT character ever and he should defo get more love from fans!!
Reiner , Annie, Berthold , Marley fans are like targaryen and lannister fans
So cool to support Murder, entitlement, racism, greed and evil deeds
I always look forward to Sage’s Rain video’s. One of my favorite channels, always so insightful. ❤
ooooo i can't wait to watch this, Reiner is my fav character
Splendid analysis
Your videos are soo good, i love how you analyze every aspect of the characters, getting a true psychological insight to their persona. I really love your videos specially with such complicated characters like Reiner ♥♥♥
I love Reiner analysis
a sage's rain video on my favorite mannnnnn
a soldier is a monster with a cause and people to protect. but that cause is not always morally righteous. reiner killed because he sought positive affirmation and killed and betrayed the people who gave it to him for the hope his family and marlians would give it to him instead.
for a soldier to kill they need a motive that justifies taking a life. for some its serving their country, some the weapons, some just like the idea of killing, and there are those who kill to be loved like reiner. but the last group will always question how much blood did it take and was it worth it?
I just wanted to say great video and I loved it 👍
It also helped me get on with my maths homework lol so I’ll probably rewatch with my full attention next time haha
Reiner / Zeke / Eren / Annie / Mikasa.. such tragic characters
I think i misinterpreted idea is that eren has a selfish goal.
In fact he is a slave to Ymir’s desires
As the first episodes title implies
It’s no coincidence that eren sees humanity trapped in a pen.
Thr exact inclosure Ymir frees some pigs from
There is no motivation or manifestation in erens own life.
As eren says , he didn’t always feel like he was trapped
It was the dream
To you, from 2000 years ago
Rein is such a tragic character
Reiner really struggled with so much looking back.
The growth though to put everything thing aside and keep moving forward took guts and so much character
Goooood i was waiting this
More topics of all characters in AOT.
THANK YOU
Sage rain
damn im early, hyped to watch the vid
Can you make an analysis or talk about Annie?
what a beautiful video. He and Armin are my favourites.
Reiner is my favorite character. Always has been, even from day one.
In another universe, Reiner would have been the main character of the story.
Amazing video 👍👍
I can always tell a sage rain video by its thumbnail before I even see who posted it lol I guess it’s the art style you use for them
loved this and every video you have made keep it up
(maybe do eren and mikasa as a relationship)
Reiner definitely needs a lot of hugs.🐱
The plot armor titan jumps at it again.
Reiner has a full circle arc of his character like Berserk’s Farnese
Fill my veins with Reiner content
i love Reiner
I really love your character breakdowns can you do one on Oliver from saltburn he's an interesting character
I've had a hard time choosing a favorite character in AOT,
Many of the main characters like Mikasa, Armin, Eren, Levi, etc are characters i'm not a fan of,
But Reiner is an exception,
He's a character that has intrigued me since the beginning,
He's just a likeable cool guy with complex and fascinating growth
He is..
Reiner goat
you should read audiobooks !! u have a great voice
hating Reiner just like Eren only to find out he was my favorite character
I swear this video made me like Reiner even more…
"I wanted to be a hero. I wanted people to respect me."
I remembered farcry
Can you cover Devil man crybaby
No one:
The subtitles: as a soldier. Rhina is forced to face down his contrasting BL leaves 💀
Ik this is probably off topic but how do you deal with guilt even tho everyone say you did nth wrong but the person you did it to says you did
As soon as he told eren the truth nothing but hate however , before that I was a fan of him strong buff scout , a role model , then the rest of the show came , amazing character real life trauma and guilt great video and speculation.
Please make a video on Jean and connie too
🎉
more attack on titan please
We need crows zero rindaman one. Please 🙏
I think Luke being op isn’t a bad thing at all. He’s the villain so him being very powerful helps to up the tension. As long as they explain why he don’t do surtían stuff
The brilliant way it juxtaposes the two different eldian groups.
The one behind the walls that are protected and free
And the ones that are slaves to Marley without walls
So where did history get fractured????
How did king Fritz line become the false king with the founding titan residing with the reiss family.
It’s even said that it was king Fritz that created the rule to never goto war
But I think there’s a lot of killing and brutality that was waged over the ownership of the founding titan.
Reiner is my favorite among Erwin and Levi
What mic do you use ?
Any book recommendations anyone, like Non-Fiction idea books?
What’s the ost playing at 14:26?
My guy, great video, but you gotta stard hard R'ing Reiners name
Ben 10 Ben Tennyson character explained please make video
Although Connie is my favorite character, I understand Reiner, Annie, Bertholt & the warriors. They were in a bad situation with an even worse demand on their lives. Still, Reiner KNEW everything Marley said was a lie. They lived with these people and knew for a fact that they were not a threat. I still don't believ
When Reiner broke the walls he didn't know the truth, even when he did eventually learn the truth there was nothing they could do that wouldn't get not themselves killed but their families will suffer the consequences for their failure back home.
can you pls do one piece series 😔
BRO PLEASE DO SPAWN
he is basically a kurdish guy in Turkey 💀
Make a one piece analysis
You should break down zoro’s “nothing happened” moment in one piece
What's to break down? Nothing. Happened.
Zoro is my favorite OP character
0:33 "She wholeheartedly believed in the Eldian propaganda"
Wouldn't it be Marleyan propaganda about Eldians?
burger king foot lettuce
18:45
Maturing is realising that Reiner isn't a failure as a Warrior. The Marleyan military and the Paradis mission are complete failures. Grown-ass men gave children Titans, plonked them on Paradis and expected them to bring back the Founder. This disastrous leadership failed the Warriors themselves, the nation of Marley and the entire world. Reiner and the Alliance are the only reason why any of humanity survive the Rumbling at all. Who's really the 'failure' here?
cyberpunk 2077 when?:)
Eren did nothing wrong except for the fact he didn't finish.
Are U crazy killing 80% of population?can anyone even comprehend that amount of destruction
YEAGERISTS FOREVER!
fix ur audio
AW HELL NAH THIS MF THINK HES CORPSE HUSBAND 😂😂😂😂
i cant help but to hate ruinar sorry but he did so much bad shit in the first 3 sessions to our main cast that i could not even fell bad for his story in session 4 and worse the writer made him one of the good guys and eren is now the bad one so like...no ruiner am not feeling bad for your dady or mommy issues over a character that his mother got eaten by a mf titan in front of him
and i know the ending that eren sent the smile titan to kill his mother but it did not change what eren gose throw in his childhood is just way too much
I hate Reiner purely based on the fact that he is invincible and should have died at least 10 different times
Please stop saying reinuh
