9:45 I read it somewhere: The reason that Eren asked Mikasa was not just because he wants to know what she feels for him, but he was hoping for a different answer than what he had seen in the future.
and another scenario is the Sasha's death , when he asked for the last words Sasha spoke. That confirms the inevitable future and for us audience, its a warning that this show lost its innocence along with Sasha
@@bryztron but that death was caused by him itself because he dragged the scouts with him said by jean lol and guess what? eren didnt even responded to that lol basically confirming what jean said was true ......that is why he is laughing at himself because he knows he has indirectly killed sasha its not inevitable future or some bullshit as eren literally says 'HE WANTED THIS....' and he also says 'everything that has happened is because of what i wanted' in this episode as well its not that eren succumbed to the future BUT THE FUTURE SET BEFORE EREN IS THE ONLY FUTURE HE WOULD HAVE EVER ACCEPTED
@@AM17titan and? Am I arguing that Eren is just following the future without his own will? Lol. Bro you just assumed that Im kinda defending eren's actions blaming on the inevitable future. I said it as if the future is already set in stone(at this point of the show's revelation about Mikasa's monologue). I DO KNOW THE FACT that i was because of Eren this is the only future possible.
The only normal (non-business) talk the Jaeger brothers ever had was about Mikasa, and man, what a treat it was to see them share a normal conversation and Zeke being the big brother he wanted to be, advising his little brother on this woman's feelings towards him. He only had a single moment of real brotherhood with Eren. This made his reaction in the path after realizing that Eren deceived him even more sad...
I know the whole comment section is probably filled with people like this, but man, experiencing u guys see the show for the first time was such a fucking good journey. You're easily in the top 3 reaction channels when it comes to picking up and understanding the story. And your group had all the roles filled so well throughout the reactions. Biraj having insight into the logical parts of the show, Rowan looking deeply into the characters, Rivas learning to enjoy anime overall, and of course Ronnie who kept everyone on track. And now as you've approached the finale, the excitement that is visible in all of your eyes is so amazing to see, picking up on the same details I did when I first watched the show such as Eren repeating the same line he said on the boat in season 1
13:15 One of my favorite lines from this episode is how Eren used to say: " I’ll wipe them all out" as a human about the Titans. Now, he’s saying the same thing as a Titan about the humans.🔥🔥
Eren’s founder form looks like a stringed puppet trapped in a cage of bones. It really represents his character from day one: A caged bird, enslaved by fate.
spoiler warning: Rivas the GOAT how he understands Eren soooo good! That he wanted to push his friends away from him, that he somehow screams for help and that his ability to see the future is a burden to him. Unvelievable how Rivas understands this right away!
(I’m watching it on my iPad, snuggled up with a blanket, and enjoying my last day of Christmas vacation, also, I’m from Barcelona, so salutes from Spain ❤🇪🇸) As someone who was there when you published your first video I have to say I like to rewatch the first few episodes cause I like seeing how much you guys have changed and how much you have learned to love this show. Also, thank you Ronnie for giving us a video EVERYDAY, you don’t know how much we appreciate you 🫶🏻
Thank you so much for sticking with us since the beginning, it really does mean a lot. It helps that the show is so good, making us want to binge-watch, and your support is what truly keeps me motivated to post
This episode has most concentrated Eren and Mikasa romance content across all seasons up to now besides the end of S2. If Rivas say he can’t see it then I can only suppose it’s a cultural difference thing.
I don't think he knows how to express it, you could say it's made a bit awkward because she's adopted, but they're kids as well. He hasn't matured, and I've always felt that his core desire is very immature. "Kill everyone because they get in the way of doing what I want." You can easily argue that in terms of emotional development in the series, eren is the one that's had the least. Chair 2 isn't necessarily wrong.
his questions towards Mikasa about how she felt and Connie about Sasha's last words was him testing if there's any change compared to the future he saw , all of those answers was the confirmation he saw that there was no other way
The Rumbling Was Inspired by World War II, Isayama mentioned it was influenced by his interest in the destructive power of war and humanity's potential to bring about mass extinction. You can compare it to the nuke, king Fritz used the fear of the rumbling to bring peace for 100 years. Today, the nukes definitely plays a role in preventing a new world war. When you think about it it hasn’t even been 100 years…
The problem with "I can't let you go through with this" from the alliance is that they have no alternative that isn't that the island gets wiped out instead.
I am always here for Rivas words, theories everything he says like I love his mind, all of you guys always impresses me by your thoughts and all but especially him and that is exactly why one of his favs is armin and he always understands him so well
I love this song they picked for that moment. It is used in the show at key points but has always been impactful "Is that the destroyer or the creator? Ist das der Zerstörer oder der Schöpfer? With the embers of hate we wave our swords Mit der Glut des Hasses schwenken wir die Schwerter Is this our destiny or our will? Ist das unser Schicksal oder unser Wille? We'll fight until that hot wind takes our wings Wir werden kämpfen, bis dieser heiße Wind unsere Flügel nimmt"
Just fyi, the time between the scouts trip to Marley and raid on Liberio was couple of months as mentioned by Hange in 4x25. They were planning to do the trip two years ago but only went there only a couple of months before season 4 started.
Rivas' theory is on point. Eren does want them to stop him. I don't know if I am accurate but someone a few episodes back said that the world would need an enemy that would unite them and make them fight together and have them put aside their differences first and that reflects in the next two episodes. Eren being that one great threat to the world/civilization.
33:37 Bro, we just saw Eren asked Mikasa what he is to her and Eren asked his brother heart-to-heart about “reflex to protect the host” in this episode AND at the end of S2 how he response to her confession.
I'm actually on the same page with Rivas re: Eren's feelings for Mikasa. Half of the show is outright dismissive and pushing her away, and the other half he shows care, affection, etc, but they are not reserved for romantic feelings only(thank god). BUT! When he asked "what am I to you?" it became pretty clear how he feels about her. Bc if you're not interested in the person in this way, you just keep hanging with them like usual without trying to talk the relationship.
Love your discussion! About Eren's feelings towards Mikasa, I think it's just AOT didn't do their romance quite well. That's why some people think it's romantic feelings and some people think it's family love. The second guy I'm with you! TBH, I thought they are family love for the whole time when I watched AOT until the last episode... That's why those lines shock me... AOT did a lot of things well but I don't think it built up Eren and Mikasa's romantic relationship well. I mean at least AOT should show us more about Eren's POV towards Mikasa.
It should be more explicit however... I think it has also a lot to do with our culture regarding "romantic love". I know friend who never went on a date but just simply love at first sight and immedietly as the person that he loves to marry him and the woman said yes which sounds unbelieveable perhaps. Not everyone has the same way of loving someone. Eren and Mikasa love is just simply different and that's probably why it's kind of failure. Mikasa is too shy and Eren is shy as well lol or perhaps passive. Everyone loves to interpret Eren what is he to Mikasa as showcase how Eren is expecting different answer to see if the future change only for it to confirm his future sight. But that view leads to another question...why didn't Eren tried to be the proactive and says I love you? Change should always start from within, something that Eren doesn't really do. Why didn't Eren told Armin his future sight considering Armin is a genius? Why did Eren let the tybur declaration happened (The war declarion by Tybur family was Zeke idea btw, in season 4 episode 2, and Eren ensured it succeed)? Baffling how many people keeps saying it's Tybur and Marley plan, even though it is also Zeke plan and by extension Eren as well.
28:00 couldn't agree more with biraj here, it's like even though he has seen the future and knows predominantly what's about to happen he still wanted to give the reality a chance to see whether it diverges from what he knows..
16:56 WHAT A CLIFFHANGER!! That scene of the Rumbling at the end, accompanied by the original soundtrack, was both beautiful and terrifying. It brings everything full circle; the series began with the fear of a single Colossal Titan instilled into the people of Paradis. Now, Eren is instilling that same fear into the entire world with the Colossals-multiplied a million times over.
I can’t think of a reason for a guy to ask his older brother if his girl loves him due to free will or not other than that he also loves her. Also his response of “only 4 years left” is clear that this is talking about a romantic relationship rather a sibling relationship. It’s subtle. But in AOT world, the scene can’t be any more obvious.
I always think eren mikasa relationship is very subtle, ofcourse he was very rude to her first but I think after that confession in s2 he softened a lot towards her, maybe he thinks that she will always be with him, but when realized his fate even though he loves her he doesnt want to burden her thats why he replied to zeke that I got only four years left. I love them but also wish that there should be more scenes of them as I understand rivas point too.
I'm watching in my tablet on my bed Its one of my favorite things to watch your aot reactions😂 your discussions are very indulging Been here from the first aot reaction guys and I love your reactions! ❤ I'm sure you're gonna keep growing 😊
I think it’s because of dialogue. Most people watch it alone and have to pick on all these things all by themselves and these guys have the benefit of having discussions as a group to align their whole arguments and points
I have been watching you guys since the day you posted your first aot reaction! I watched that video on my phone and then I started watching your videos on T.V sitting on my bed with some snacks. Literally cannot believe you guys are about to finish watching aot. So excited for more reactions to various shows that you guys will be watching in the future! ❤
Eren is a typical teenage boy. Why didn't he include “because you love me”? Because he was scared and couldn't. Why did he ask Zeke why Mikasa always protected him? Because he didn't want it to be the Ackermann thing. If he didn't care, he wouldn't have asked such a thing to this strange half-brother. It's obvious. Also he said “I will wrap you with the scarf again and again. As much as you want forever and ever” kind of thing in ep12 of s2 after the “kissing” scene. You wouldn't say this to your “sister”. Plus he was always irritated when Mikasa treated him like her son in s1. Why? Because he wanted her to see him as a man. Another thing. In s1 when Jean said to Mikasa that her black hair was beautiful, Eren immediately told her to cut it short because it was dangerous for training or whatever.
And, someone wouldn't deliberately make a sentence that "Ive always hated you";a stark contrast to" I've always loved you", to THEIR SISTER to simply push her away.....obv he didn't just see her as a sibling figure
I think their romance is the only thing that was poorly written honestly about this show. Eren never really expressed or showed actual romantic feelings for her (and the scarf bs doesn’t count as an exemple cuz i coulf do that with my friend too lol) and Mikasa’s character was literally only based around Eren the whole show which is a shame cuz she’s a cool character. Also just these scarf scenes could easily be said by siblings to each other what? And im pretty sure Eren wasn’t even in the room when Jean complimented Mikasa’s hair in S1
@@lurkingknight(spoiler warning in case for the reactors) He does understand romance, he deadass has a whole simp speech about mikasa in the last episode acting quite pathetically not wanting her to move on from him. Which is why it’s confusing because their relationship was bland the whole time of the show.
@@SoSodawgindahouse I think it's far more complicated than you're putting it. Does he understand it or does he have a preconceived idea on how it works? Judging by how he thinks his friends will live happily ever after if he destroys the world. I don't think he does completely understand what intimacy and romance really are.
Eren (4x20) : “Rather than letting someone steal my freedom, I'll steal theirs first.” The shot of Eren getting carried away from his mom getting eaten, to then transition to his founding titan marching on Marley, is phenomenal. To imagine that that little kid now has all this power. 🔥🔥
It’s wild that Eren’s motivations have never changed, they just evolved. He’s always wanted to protect his home and his friends. In S1 that meant wiping out the titans. In S4 that means wiping out humanity.
Rowan’s obsession with Eren and Mikasa’s kiss that will never happen 😂 Rowan has come so far. I remember when he threatened to fall asleep in the beginning of the first episode
im crying right now i miss aot so much thank you guys for your reaction videos im re living ( watching) aot with yall even tho i did watch it 11 times already but i always get emotional
Amidst a flood of bloody footprints emerges the messiah, chained in his enormous cage of bones resembling the ribs of an upside down boat, like Noah’s ark commandeered by the devil.
33:17 Well, it's a lil bit complicated😂But still you can say she is indeed the most important person in the world for eren...Even when they say all this 'home', 'family' stuff, it still is a kind of metaphor, a beautiful symbolism...After their tragedy, they were only the people left for each other...meaning a 'home' to return to, for both of them...not just a silly romantic or sibling kind of relationship it goes far beyond... Btw, that last whole scene with those military force trying to stop the rumbling but then going in vain and Eren's founding titan appearing as a monster...that whole sequence was cinematic...i still remember the first time i watched it...that went way tooo hard and epic!!!
@@maggie198333 It's not like I said he did it because of King Frtiz. I'm just stating the linking between Eren and King Fritz's line. We viewers even know that Eren was a slave to freedom. Just another subtle detail that shows Isayama's great writing
I watch you guys on my triple monitor setup, playing slay the spire on one screen, sitting on my Herman Miller, waiting for my kid to wake up from her nap.
At the end of Season 1, Armin and Jean have a conversation. I cannot remember their exact words, but it was along the lines of: Armin: Becoming a monster worse than your opponent might be the only way to win Jean: If that's the only way, is it even worth it? Could you truly call that a victory... for 'humanity'?
@3:35 I watch/listen to most UA-cam videos on my phone since I be doing other stuff and I watch alll my anime shows on my laptop since I need to pay attention lol
i watch aot on tv with my little siste she is the one who recommand a lot of anime to me (Aot,hxh,demon salyer....) ,and about i always watch u guys on my pc.
Its a crazy coming around episode, theres a really good video that compares shots from episodes 1-2 from season 1 to this one, pretty amazing direction from the anime squad. About erens motive, remember that theres a very tight time limit, zeke is dying in less than a year and eren himself in 4. Erens purpose to protect his friends has to happen before historia is made to eat zeke. In truth, he waited until the very last moment, both time limit wise and world-wise, as his attack on marley started when willy declared war on paradis. Imagine the islands perspective, the entire world at war with a tiny behind the times island. The war is now, there is no time left, this is why Eren sounded desperate with Hnage, and Hange also felt like she had failed Eren. Armin and Eren spoke about it, they could solve their differences eventually, but they need time. Eren also has a point in saying they are ultimately something like aliens to other people, as they can transform into monstrosities that eat humans at any point. Imagine it form a normal human perspective, specially in the 1900s, to be told your neighbour could turn into a 15 metre tall monster and eat you and your family in a few minutes. Erens solution also doesnt help much, as kiyomi said, the world will just shrink, what Eren is doing is at least ensuring his friends will live on, he doesnt care about what happens later. As Erwin said, humans will stop fighting each other when there is only one remaining or less, so there is no perfect solution. I think what pushed Eren aside from the memorieshas been his experiences, he learnt through levis squads death that trusting his comrades isnt always right. Armin told him that is he wants to change something, he has to sacrifice something, if he wants to win, he has to become a monster. He learnt in the cavern with historia to be able to trust his own decisions. Of course theres more that will be shown later on the last part. Zekes plans also had a lot of holes, a lot of them explained in the show itself, you have to sacrifice historia and her kid, whatr happens when all of paradis is 50+ years old, they cant defend the island and what happens if erens or zekes successors dont agree with their views and goes back to a warmonger path. In the end, there is no solution, just like todays real world is seeing new wars, there can never be peace forever and i think the show is pretty good at expressing that.
I feel like no one has answered Rowan's question 😭 I watch you guys either on my TV or at my PC mostly - sometimes in bed on my iPad and once in the shower XD
1:40 for me, its that fact that you guys Do not blue ball the audience before uploading a major episode or arc or something. You dont milk it. Thats profesionalism.
Oh gosh just 2 episodes left and it’s finally ending. I’m just happy I found your channel and watched you journey from day 1 because as an addict to AOT reactions, you’re definitely in my top 3 reaction channels now. Edit: To answer Rowan’s question, I watched AOT on TV with my brother and I watch your videos on my iPad lol
I usually watch your guys videos at work on my phone. But if I can resist watching until after my shift I watch yall on my second monitor while I game or work on shit 3:30 Also sometimes I am awake at 4:30am and I will watch the vids in bed 😂

To chair 2 about "Eren doesn't love Mikasa romantically". Iyasama confirmed that every scene of Mikasa in Eren's pov, he draws Mikasa more pretty.
Yes, and this rule doesn't only apply to Mikasa and Eren.

7:51 Levi definitely felt some sympathy for the kid thief since Levi himself grew up in the underground and having to steal to survive.
11:11 This is the first time we see Eren smiling since season 3. A moment of happiness amidst the chaos was necessary.💔💔
I am always here for Rivas words, theories everything he says like I love his mind, all of you guys always impresses me by your thoughts and all but especially him and that is exactly why one of his favs is armin and he always understands him so well
When u finish AOT u lowkey get depressed and i found a way to move on and that is by watching AOT reactions

fax
It’s like a group therapy.
I love this song they picked for that moment. It is used in the show at key points but has always been impactful
"Is that the destroyer or the creator?
Ist das der Zerstörer oder der Schöpfer?
With the embers of hate we wave our swords
Mit der Glut des Hasses schwenken wir die Schwerter
Is this our destiny or our will?
Ist das unser Schicksal oder unser Wille?
We'll fight until that hot wind takes our wings
Wir werden kämpfen, bis dieser heiße Wind unsere Flügel nimmt"
Just fyi, the time between the scouts trip to Marley and raid on Liberio was couple of months as mentioned by Hange in 4x25.
They were planning to do the trip two years ago but only went there only a couple of months before season 4 started.
Rivas' theory is on point. Eren does want them to stop him. I don't know if I am accurate but someone a few episodes back said that the world would need an enemy that would unite them and make them fight together and have them put aside their differences first and that reflects in the next two episodes.

In s1 when Jean said to Mikasa that her black hair was beautiful, Eren immediately told her to cut it short because it was dangerous for training or whatever.
And, someone wouldn't deliberately make a sentence that "Ive always hated you";a stark contrast to" I've always loved you", to THEIR SISTER to simply push her away.....obv he didn't just see her as a sibling figure
I think their romance is the only thing that was poorly written honestly about this show. Eren never really expressed or showed actual romantic feelings for her (and the scarf bs doesn’t count as an exemple cuz i coulf do that with my friend too lol) and Mikasa’s character was literally only based around Eren the whole show which is a shame cuz she’s a cool character. Also just these scarf scenes could easily be said by siblings to each other what? And im pretty sure Eren wasn’t even in the room when Jean complimented Mikasa’s hair in S1
@@SoSodawgindahouse I don't think he necessarily understands romance, the guy is borderline sociopath.
@@lurkingknight(spoiler warning in case for the reactors)
He does understand romance, he deadass has a whole simp speech about mikasa in the last episode acting quite pathetically not wanting her to move on from him. Which is why it’s confusing because their relationship was bland the whole time of the show.
@@SoSodawgindahouse I think it's far more complicated than you're putting it. Does he understand it or does he have a preconceived idea on how it works? Judging by how he thinks his friends will live happily ever after if he destroys the world. I don't think he does completely understand what intimacy and romance really are.
I watch everyday with lunch on the table and The Ralaz on my laptop. standard routine lol
Eren (4x20) : “Rather than letting someone steal my freedom, I'll steal theirs first.”
The shot of Eren getting carried away from his mom getting eaten, to then transition to his founding titan marching on Marley, is phenomenal. To imagine that that little kid now has all this power. 🔥🔥
It’s wild that Eren’s motivations have never changed, they just evolved. He’s always wanted to protect his home and his friends. In S1 that meant wiping out the titans. In S4 that means wiping out humanity.
The word is bittersweet.
11:37 he immediately left after seeing that nothing really changed from what he saw.
I have been watching you guys from ep1. I can’t believe it’s going to finish 😢
Looking at eren's founding titan in another perspective and comparing the size of it to the colossals is actually scary 😭😭😭
You guys have the best collective brains I've ever seen in this platform
I used to binge watch every AOT season during my school holidays, those 2 weeks changed my life ;'''0
Rowan’s obsession with Eren and Mikasa’s kiss that will never happen 😂
Rowan has come so far. I remember when he threatened to fall asleep in the beginning of the first episode
im crying right now i miss aot so much thank you guys for your reaction videos im re living ( watching) aot with yall even tho i did watch it 11 times already but i always get emotional
11?!
@Astralez-BrawlStars yeah and next month I'm planning to re watch it , I just love it soo much , aot have a very special place in My Heart
20:25 Riwas is bang on point...
12:10 such a crazy shot. Erens head is up in the clouds as he tramples the world below
16:45 The big lad himself
Did people just forget the end of Season 2? What Mikasa said to Eren and what he said in response?
I usually watch us on TV and pc, but today I'm on a train to Vienna in my laptop (basically sitting)
Amidst a flood of bloody footprints emerges the messiah, chained in his enormous cage of bones resembling the ribs of an upside down boat, like Noah’s ark commandeered by the devil.
I always love the reactions of the guy with the white hoodie
33:17 Well, it's a lil bit complicated😂But still you can say she is indeed the most important person in the world for eren...Even when they say all this 'home', 'family' stuff, it still is a kind of metaphor, a beautiful symbolism...After their tragedy, they were only the people left for each other...meaning a 'home' to return to, for both of them...not just a silly romantic or sibling kind of relationship it goes far beyond...
Btw, that last whole scene with those military force trying to stop the rumbling but then going in vain and Eren's founding titan appearing as a monster...that whole sequence was cinematic...i still remember the first time i watched it...that went way tooo hard and epic!!!
The start of this episode is one of my favorites
these discussions are great
Wait, i'm kinda sad that the AOT reactions are almost over😢
Oh I’m VERY early, 1 minute!? Perfect time to watch before bed.
Yeah I been watching ya since episode one. Y'all have gotten a lot better at this. 😂
Also another parallel:
Seeing Eren stab his eye and basically mutilate himself reminds of King Fritz saying "Slaves have no need for two eyes"...
Nah. it’s visual way of hiding his identity when he infiltrated Marley for the manga readers and anime watchers.
@@maggie198333Thats the practical reason he did it, yeah. But the guy is just trying to find some literary connections
@@maggie198333 It's not like I said he did it because of King Frtiz. I'm just stating the linking between Eren and King Fritz's line. We viewers even know that Eren was a slave to freedom. Just another subtle detail that shows Isayama's great writing
@@VleasoNo. I’m saying the creator Isayama made the decision because of practical reasons. Eren would have lost 2 eyes if the parallel is intentional.
@@maggie198333...no? Are you a fluent English speaker?
15:19 And you blame me for loving Eren 😭😭❤❤ forever MY BOY EREN
I watch you guys on my triple monitor setup, playing slay the spire on one screen, sitting on my Herman Miller, waiting for my kid to wake up from her nap.
I will miss AOT so much 😭😭😭
You know it's a serious episode when there's no opening
3:24 yeah. I watch it from a laptop. Now watching u guys from my phone
I love how the whole fandom had the same reaction when we saw the titans swim
At the end of Season 1, Armin and Jean have a conversation. I cannot remember their exact words, but it was along the lines of:
Armin: Becoming a monster worse than your opponent might be the only way to win
Jean: If that's the only way, is it even worth it? Could you truly call that a victory... for 'humanity'?
3:15 right now i am watching on my phone at work (in germany)
Its lunchtime now
You guys were about to kill eachother at the end there lol
YALL ARENT READY!! WE ARE THOUGH
Never forget us people whos been there since the beginning!
🫡
I think he lied bc he wanted both of them to hate him and think him saying this to her to confuse her that it's not love so they can let him go
@3:35 I watch/listen to most UA-cam videos on my phone since I be doing other stuff and I watch alll my anime shows on my laptop since I need to pay attention lol
i watch aot on tv with my little siste she is the one who recommand a lot of anime to me (Aot,hxh,demon salyer....) ,and about i always watch u guys on my pc.
AHHHHHH im gonna miss watching ur guys aot reactions while getting ready for school💔😞
Levi was lso an orphan kid who would pickpocket in the underground. of course he would safe that random kid.
Its a crazy coming around episode, theres a really good video that compares shots from episodes 1-2 from season 1 to this one, pretty amazing direction from the anime squad.
About erens motive, remember that theres a very tight time limit, zeke is dying in less than a year and eren himself in 4. Erens purpose to protect his friends has to happen before historia is made to eat zeke. In truth, he waited until the very last moment, both time limit wise and world-wise, as his attack on marley started when willy declared war on paradis. Imagine the islands perspective, the entire world at war with a tiny behind the times island. The war is now, there is no time left, this is why Eren sounded desperate with Hnage, and Hange also felt like she had failed Eren. Armin and Eren spoke about it, they could solve their differences eventually, but they need time. Eren also has a point in saying they are ultimately something like aliens to other people, as they can transform into monstrosities that eat humans at any point. Imagine it form a normal human perspective, specially in the 1900s, to be told your neighbour could turn into a 15 metre tall monster and eat you and your family in a few minutes. Erens solution also doesnt help much, as kiyomi said, the world will just shrink, what Eren is doing is at least ensuring his friends will live on, he doesnt care about what happens later. As Erwin said, humans will stop fighting each other when there is only one remaining or less, so there is no perfect solution. I think what pushed Eren aside from the memorieshas been his experiences, he learnt through levis squads death that trusting his comrades isnt always right. Armin told him that is he wants to change something, he has to sacrifice something, if he wants to win, he has to become a monster. He learnt in the cavern with historia to be able to trust his own decisions. Of course theres more that will be shown later on the last part.
Zekes plans also had a lot of holes, a lot of them explained in the show itself, you have to sacrifice historia and her kid, whatr happens when all of paradis is 50+ years old, they cant defend the island and what happens if erens or zekes successors dont agree with their views and goes back to a warmonger path.
In the end, there is no solution, just like todays real world is seeing new wars, there can never be peace forever and i think the show is pretty good at expressing that.
I feel like no one has answered Rowan's question 😭 I watch you guys either on my TV or at my PC mostly - sometimes in bed on my iPad and once in the shower XD
This anime is a Masterpiece
1:40 for me, its that fact that you guys Do not blue ball the audience before uploading a major episode or arc or something. You dont milk it. Thats profesionalism.
I watch you guys while having meals, snacks. 😌
Some of you guys don’t understand the difference between understandable and justifiable 😭😭
16:36 Be like Eren in revenge😍:
They sent him one colossal titan, so he sent millions of colossal titan🤭😂😂
Oh gosh just 2 episodes left and it’s finally ending. I’m just happy I found your channel and watched you journey from day 1 because as an addict to AOT reactions, you’re definitely in my top 3 reaction channels now.
Edit: To answer Rowan’s question, I watched AOT on TV with my brother and I watch your videos on my iPad lol
