Imagine the scouts telling stories about commander Erwin to their grandchildren. "Even in the teeth of a titan, the commander was still giving out orders"
Commander Erwin lead the charge, mauled by a titan, cut his arm off, stopped the bleeding, found his horse, doubled back and saved Eren. This is what a Man looks like.
I love Erwin's character because he would NEVER ask or command anyone to do something he wouldn't do himself. Which he didn't just preach when shit was comfy, he show's it when everything is all gone to fuck. True leader standards. Someone worth following. Also J Michael Tatum fucking crushed it as the dub voice for Erwin. Hands down.
Perfectly stated and that's what a true leader is. Not just somebody who commands but also somebody who puts their words into actions and doesnt sit on the sidelines but walks through the hell they ask of their subordinates. He doesnt just ask you to give your heart to the cause he walks along side you putting himself on the line
@@WTC-1990 There was once a dead animal in our area, that we had to remove from dangerous machinery... They said "Let's ask maintenance to to do it" but we knew the smell would worsen in the days we'd wait for that that to happen. I asked a guy with the guts to do it to remove the animal any way we could. He vomited, he cried, he screamed.... I still stayed in the same spot for an hour since I had dealt with this problem before. There were cameras on me and people asking how I dealt with it: I said,"It had to be done, no?" My girlfriend's family (Who was working with me) called me a devil for dealing with hell XD But really, my men followed me to the end after that :/
I love how in the Levi OVA commander Erwin grabbed the blade of the sword that Levi swung at him and stared into his eyes while the blade is digging into his palm. Yes, only a crazy mofo could lead a crazy mofo, and only a crazy mofo would follow a crazy mofo. they're both awesome af lol
The fact that he dropped morale basically to zero (because he wasn’t paying attention to his surroundings which caused him to get his arm eaten off which wasn’t his fault entirely) and raised it back to 100% or maybe even higher was damn good. Best commander in anime.
Dude that’s what makes this shit so intense and insane. Normally everyone would’ve lost their shit and freaked out but this man said nah fuck that we’re ending this even I’m eaten alive while you do it.
I think the Titan that bit his arm is considered a abnormal titan, based on how he's crawling on all fours. Abnormal titans are even more unpredictable, the speed and unpredictable movement of this titan probably caught everyone off guard
@@Young_Dab It is an abnormal however it's true that Erwin wasn't paying attention because he was being driven by rescuing Eren to even notice his surroundings .
It looks like the Abnormal Titan was behind the tree line and Erwin was caught right as he passed it. By the time he would have been able to see the titan it was already too late.
@@earlygraduate702 Erwin was tired, he didnt have plans for the future, and just wanted over with. Armin had plans for the future and had a drive that Erwin did not. The titan serum would have been wasted on Erwin.
This scene is incredible in both versions. Normally I have to go with the subs (just because I'm used to it thanks to Netflix), but the voice actor for Erwin just pours his fucking heart into it in the dubbed version here.
@@hunterhorsehelmsley7315 lmao no. He's very overrated. His role as Johnathan joestar proves it well. Erwins voice actor, Levi's voice actor, or Patrick seltz the voice actor of DIO and jiren are all better than him. But the two best voice actors are easily number 1 goku and number 2 vegeta
@@its_Criminal1 Nah. Admittedly he doesn't fit Jonathan. But Lelouch, Ichago, Yu Narukami. All of these roles he has outshined his Japanese equivalent. He just puts so much more into his character than the others you mentioned.
@@hunterhorsehelmsley7315 even though i hate his personality the best voice actor is gokus. He makes every dub and most of the sub voice actors look like childs play. It's not only about how much you put into the job it's also about your voice itself. And he has the lungs of a super Saiyan
@@its_Criminal1 Sean is perfect for Goku. But only in the Kai version and in Super. The original DBZ Dub he was REALLY rough, screaming loud doesn't fix that. And he's not that great in other roles. Look at him in Berserk for example. The best voice actor in Dragon Ball is Patrick Seitz, he does 90% of the cast and has a unique voice for all of them.
This literally gives me chills every time I watch it….and I’ve seen it dozens of times. Can you even imagine? Literally getting your entire arm bitten off and still screaming “I said Advance God dammit!!!” Commander Ervin could literally convince me to ride to my death just to save a single ant. He is the ultimate commander and hype man of all fictional works, period.
Omg I was literally watching this scene and came to UA-cam to see if Commander Erwin makes anyone else want to ride to the death against titans 😭 this man is phenomenal & definitely one of the best anime character to be written imo.
The fact that Erwin never once led a charge without going first just shows that he is a true badass plus the "I said advance goddammit!" gave me chills
Now THIS scene shows what REAL leadership is. Dude loses an arm, faces nearly certain death, yet still orders his troop to their objective even if it means leaving him to die. The face he STILL made it after that also shows he is VERY capable, crippled or not.
Levi sprains an ankle he's out for a week Commander Erwin gets his arm mauled off by a titan 5 seconds later he's back kicking ass Btw this is a joke I love Levi and he's getting many more badass moments in season 4
@@azaelguerra hate to be that guy but he was only out for 2 days max 1 day to prepare to capture Annie 1 day to get eren back from Reiner and berthlot before he had to fight in the uprising ARC against Kenny.
“Do not falter!” As he’s getting carried away by a titan, just gives me the chills every time. He became one of my favorite characters after this episode.
Even in the jaws of a titan he’s still a leader first and foremost. He did not falter, and that example is enough to enforce his soldiers to do the same
Erwin so no ackerman. He isnt a warrior, or a titan shifter. He is just a normal human. And yet he is one of the most couragous and greatest soldier humanity has ever had. Rest in peace erwin
It goes to show that you don’t need special powers or bloodline to be a hero. A regular human can stand up and fight for what they think is right, be courageous enough to sacrifice a limb, their sanity, their soul for what they believe is the right thing to do. Erwin proved that any one of us can be a certified badass, we only need to triumph over our fear
This and the finale speech Erwin gives in season 3 is hands down the best dubbed voice acting I’ve ever seen, although the original is also great, this is absolutely phenomenal.
honestly..i can’t tell if dub or sub erwin sounds better. this is one of those rare occurrences where they both sound amazing and it’s so hard to choose. i’ve watched it in sub muuuultiple times but watching it in dub is also sooo satisfying when he gives his lines. Erwin is just..goated
I'd say all the characters in that trio(Erwin, Levi and Hange) plus Armin are peak dubbed voice acting(that and every single character in Death Note, Fmab and Bebop)
Almost every character in power up to this point has backed down and dropped some kind of tough guy facade when faced with death. Whether they're pleading or giving up or cowering. They all say "I don't wanna die" or "Someone help me". Now we got Erwin who instead says "Did I fucking STUTTER?!"
The way the music pauses right before he screams "I said 'advance' goddammit!" makes it hit so much harder. The people who score this show are masterminds.
The voice acting is like an act of God. Hearing any speech from Erwin, Sub or Dub, is like hearing a message from God himself. It gives me chills. Shame that Erwin dies but the moments he has throughout the series solidifies him as one of the best, if not THE best. He is the best Commander in the history of anime/manga and likely will never be topped, in my eyes at least.
I dunno something about dub just makes me FEEL it more. There's something more powerful and commanding with dub. Sub is good too, but dub really makes me FEEL his commanding presence.

Maybe u like him more but in reality erwin only got 2 titans captured to which they immediately escaped, the long range scouting formation, and perfect game , as where armin got the colossal secured, and saved eren and mikasa multiple times, which we couldn't have a show without. Just bc u like their character more doesnt mean much . Armin could've thought of the things the commander did , this was shown when he got the idea to check inside the walls for reiner and bert
@@lolok866 Hell no Armin is nowhere as decisive and experienced as Erwin and he's got no charisma or leadership If i was a soldier i would have never followed someone like Armin no matter how smart he is whereas Erwin was able to make a bunch of kids do a suicide charge and i would have definitely followed him as well Armin may be smarter than Erwin but he was in no way a good leader Erwin was the better choice logically ofcourse but not storywise
U guys don’t understand why Levi chose Armin instead of Erwin. Like Kenny said, everyone is a slave of something. And the reason why Erwin was able to be a top tier commander like this was only because he had the dream to prove his fathers theory of people living outside the wall (which would be answered in the basement after the fight). So if Erwin would survive and see what’s in the basement were, he wouldn’t have anymore the motivation to be a good commander like in this scenes and screw his position probably. Finding out the truth was more important for him than the victory of humanity (what he told Levi before the operation stated) so it wouldn’t be that smart reviving Erwin instead of Armin (bc Armin still had a huge potential to be a smart leader)
Could watch this clip over and over again, the way he doesn’t even hestitate to charge after his speech and just charges, like he would do it even if his soldiers didn’t follow. What a legend.
That's how you know Your Commander is the toughest son of a bitch in the whole anime Everyone when being bitten by a titan is screaming in pain & crying (which is understandable) Erwin is just like "ADVANCE!"
I forgot they didnt know anything at this point , can we discuss everyone calling them the devils of paradis tho? Thanks for the cool ass nickname I guess 💀
Literally each new season of attack on Titan makes you have to rewatch the previous seasons with a new pair of eyes and brain. Go watch S1EP1 and Eren’s dream alone is crazy
@@javiersoto6523 Each season you get more info and clips about what happens in that dream sequence. Off memory only the royals origins to Ymir power haven't been explained yet
{Spoiler} Miguel Chambers no they been explained. Ymir was a slave to the king and only worked for the king despite having enough power to say fuck you and dip so the 9 titans are more efficient with royal blood (except the founding titan/co-ordinates, kings will) which unlocks the titans abilities
0:06 “Mankind’s fate is decided now! There’s no future in which we reclaim these lands without Eren and there never will be” Man, Erwin will never know how accurate af he was!🤣
I’ve listened to “I said advance god dammit!” at least 200 times I still get goosebumps every time I hear it. One of the best line deliveries I’ve ever heard.
If you look closely the Titan was hiding behind a patch of trees before he bit Erwin. And since Erwin was at the front fixated on Eren and Reiner, he didn't notice and no one could have warned him.
The soldiers in this instance haven’t seen much of Ervin yet, and telling them to charge to their death isn’t a good start. He’s the leader so they end up listening and charge, but when he gets bit it takes the steam out of the engine. But seeing him keep up the courage and demand them to keep moving on the mission and leave him was very powerful for them, no one man is above the cause even him. Inadvertently giving a better speech than he probably could’ve came up with in this moment otherwise. Love these moments that subvert expectations in keeping the head of the spider alive. Always a man of his word.
that god ain’t got shit to say to this *MAN* lmaoo my man erwin gave reiner the death stare while they were both on top of the wall alone and my man reiner didn’t even try to kill this man lmao
I don't think we give enough cred to the soilder screaming "COMMANDER ERWIII" before his iconic line. It perfectly set the scene and truly was the cherry on top
@@davidmclean-e5k Well in my honest opinion I didn’t think Levi wanted it, and Hange is a great strategist and knew wayyy more about the titans than Levi, maybe that’s why Erwin chose her
@@davidmclean-e5k Great warriors aren’t always the best leaders. Erwin isn’t better than Levi in a fight but his genius is why he should be commander which we can all agree on. Hange might not be as much of a genius but he trusted her wits to lead the Scouts after he was gone more so than Levi who both didn’t want it, and wasn’t fully certain how he would lead (as he mentions to Eren throughout the show).
The fact he wasn't only willing to make that speech but immediately started riding forth before anyone could even react says everything about him as a commander. Dude was so inspiring as a fictional character that it's insane. Like this guy could convince me to ride into my death... Greatest military Leader in all of anime.
Erwin predicted future “there is no future where mankind can inhabit this land and never will be” What a great character. My best character after Eren.
The dub is sooooo much better! Sub says “Advance! Erens in front of you! Advance!” Where as here he screams “I said advance goddammit! Do not falter!” So badass
I like to think that 1)He chop off his arm like the badass he is Or 2)He killed the titan with one arm while hanging from its mouth like the badass he is P.s this was a copied comment
Yeah erwin is a badass and a great character , but don't forget all the scouts that died to retrieve eren , in erwins words " their lives have meaning because we the living refuse to forget them "
Even when faced with death, Erwin never lost his focus or determination. He’s probably the most committed person I’ve ever known of, real or fictional.
I love this whole vibe of, "well if Mikasa's going then I guess I am," from Armin, and then Jean follows him, and then so on. Such an effective leadership strategy from Erwin, knowing that at least one will follow him, cascading down the line until their all by his side!
"I said advance god damnit!" Ah yes the moment Erwin became my favorite character

@@lolok866 Hell no
Armin is nowhere as decisive and experienced as Erwin and he's got no charisma or leadership
If i was a soldier i would have never followed someone like Armin no matter how smart he is whereas Erwin was able to make a bunch of kids do a suicide charge and i would have definitely followed him as well
Armin may be smarter than Erwin but he was in no way a good leader
Erwin was the better choice logically ofcourse but not storywise
After ch 139
Levi biggest mistake was giving the Colossal Titan to a clown and hypocrite known as Armin
@@lolok866 what has armin done in s4 that makes you think he was a better choice than Erwin
U guys don’t understand why Levi chose Armin instead of Erwin. Like Kenny said, everyone is a slave of something. And the reason why Erwin was able to be a top tier commander like this was only because he had the dream to prove his fathers theory of people living outside the wall (which would be answered in the basement after the fight). So if Erwin would survive and see what’s in the basement were, he wouldn’t have anymore the motivation to be a good commander like in this scenes and screw his position probably. Finding out the truth was more important for him than the victory of humanity (what he told Levi before the operation stated) so it wouldn’t be that smart reviving Erwin instead of Armin (bc Armin still had a huge potential to be a smart leader)
Could watch this clip over and over again, the way he doesn’t even hestitate to charge after his speech and just charges, like he would do it even if his soldiers didn’t follow. What a legend.
Lol he definitely would, they ended up charging bc he did, he didnt charge bc he thought they would follow
COMMANDER IRRRWWIINNNN.
I SAID ADVANCE GOD DAMN IT.
Chilling.
*punches my screen out of sheer patriotism*
@@ZGaming128 YOUR HEART AND SCREEN TO THE CAUUUSE
How could you not get hype! TRUE LEADER!!!
@@ZGaming128 ERENS RIGHT IN FRONT YOU! *DO NOT FALTER*
@@justaguywithagoodphoto4801 *AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH**
Crazy how even Mikasa needed that Commander Erwin motivation to go save Eren.
That’s the power of a leader like Erwin
Everyone Else: PLEASE I DON’T WANT TO DIE!
Commander Erwin: I SAID ADVANCE GOD DAMMIT!!!
That's how you know
Your Commander is the toughest son of a bitch in the whole anime
Everyone when being bitten by a titan is screaming in pain & crying (which is understandable)
Erwin is just like
"ADVANCE!"
Erwin’s horse never gets enough respect for carrying his balls of steel
"I said advance, Goddamnit" what a hero...❤❤
Bertholdt screaming "HELLSPAWN" has a whooooooole different meaning now.
Yep
Me when he said it: "THATS RACIST." Lmao
Damn I never realized that
I forgot they didnt know anything at this point , can we discuss everyone calling them the devils of paradis tho? Thanks for the cool ass nickname I guess 💀
Than Erwin coming In Like a badass, with one arm. And taking Eren. His pure determination would put terror in anyone.
1:33 Damn it's a good thing he's got balls of steel or the drop onto that horse would've hurt like hell.
That horse also has a back of steel to catch those massive steel balls from mid air
Lmao😂
Ah yes the drop not the getting his arm bitten off by a titan
mF 😂😂
@@Not4CatsInACoat tis but a scratch
1:15 knowing the truth of the world, this line makes so much sense.
Not to mention his earlier lines about how everyone hates them and how they're right to do so
Literally each new season of attack on Titan makes you have to rewatch the previous seasons with a new pair of eyes and brain. Go watch S1EP1 and Eren’s dream alone is crazy
@@miguelchambers9760 whats up with erens dream? I dont get it
@@javiersoto6523 Each season you get more info and clips about what happens in that dream sequence. Off memory only the royals origins to Ymir power haven't been explained yet
{Spoiler}
Miguel Chambers no they been explained. Ymir was a slave to the king and only worked for the king despite having enough power to say fuck you and dip so the 9 titans are more efficient with royal blood (except the founding titan/co-ordinates, kings will) which unlocks the titans abilities
I’m sorry but “I SAID ADVANCE GOD DAMMIT!” Goes so much harder
0:06 “Mankind’s fate is decided now! There’s no future in which we reclaim these lands without Eren and there never will be” Man, Erwin will never know how accurate af he was!🤣
He not just Recovered the Lands but Traumatized the world for centuries further ahead
“Do not falter” better than the Japanese advance imo
Totally agree
Dub Erwin killed it honestly.
Even though i think the sub is better I can't deny that his next level
Yea, what a phenomenal performance.
Feels like a generic last stand where as the dub feels like it comes from the heart
At least for English speakers, I can't agree more.
“DO NOT FALTER”
Me: speeding up in my car.
Bro this line isn’t getting its recognition. I’m ready to fight a titan every time he opens his mouth
0:18 voice actor crushing it
one of the best scenes in all of anime
And at 0:43
This entire scene
I’ve listened to “I said advance god dammit!” at least 200 times I still get goosebumps every time I hear it. One of the best line deliveries I’ve ever heard.
The sheer rage and frustration at them stopping for him, when he specifically demanded that Erin was the only priority. Legendary moment.
Hold up so no body sees a big ass titan running towards Erwin and decided “hmm I should tell him about that”
Facts
If you look closely the Titan was hiding behind a patch of trees before he bit Erwin. And since Erwin was at the front fixated on Eren and Reiner, he didn't notice and no one could have warned him.
The trees were blocking the view ahead.
At least someone went back to rescue him.
J. Michael Tatum became a true legend with this character, the passion behind every line is absolutely crazy
1:04 The horse helped the titans kill that human lol
Lmaooo
Lol I was wondering the same thing haha
Fionnbarr Casey no
Frick that horse. All my homies hate that horse.
@@PhoenixEchoesAudio - Horse: Here you go, buddy! HEEEEYAH!!
This and Eren screaming “this is our chance, don’t let it slip away!” Are both perfect scenes and line deliveries and give me chills every time.
I would charge straight into the gates of Hell itself if this man ordered me to.
"EREN'S RIGHT INFRONT OF YOU! DO NOT FALTER!!"
*Instant Cut to Armin*
Isayama, you absolute thing of Beauty
Is that some foreshadowing? I am anime only

Too soon bud...

Save it for season 3
When he said "In front of YOU. DO NOT FALTER", it lit up my whole ass house
shoutout to erwin's horses, can you imagine how strong they were to be able to charge while carrying those huge balls of steel
The soldiers in this instance haven’t seen much of Ervin yet, and telling them to charge to their death isn’t a good start. He’s the leader so they end up listening and charge, but when he gets bit it takes the steam out of the engine. But seeing him keep up the courage and demand them to keep moving on the mission and leave him was very powerful for them, no one man is above the cause even him. Inadvertently giving a better speech than he probably could’ve came up with in this moment otherwise.
Love these moments that subvert expectations in keeping the head of the spider alive. Always a man of his word.
"I SAID ADVANCE GOD DAMN IT!!!" What a bad ass scene.
That titan that ripped into Erwin is the strongest in the world since he was able to hold up his massive balls.
Por algo era un anormal xd
1:22 he stared the god of destruction dead in the eye
And that god was terrified
@@noobmaster6823 That God was shitting his pants
that god ain’t got shit to say to this *MAN* lmaoo
my man erwin gave reiner the death stare while they were both on top of the wall alone and my man reiner didn’t even try to kill this man lmao
That god was crapping himself
Due to fear and shock of the moment even though he was hurt he didn't transform
“Your heart and soul to the cause!”
“I SAID ADVANCE GOD DAMNIT!!!”
The voice actor cooked so hard
I don't think we give enough cred to the soilder screaming "COMMANDER ERWIII" before his iconic line. It perfectly set the scene and truly was the cherry on top
I miss Erwin, he made AOT so much intense, he literally shined in every scene, he was the best choice for Commander IMO
Wait why did the chick with one eye become commander and not Levi?
@@davidmclean-e5k Well in my honest opinion I didn’t think Levi wanted it, and Hange is a great strategist and knew wayyy more about the titans than Levi, maybe that’s why Erwin chose her
@@davidmclean-e5k Great warriors aren’t always the best leaders. Erwin isn’t better than Levi in a fight but his genius is why he should be commander which we can all agree on. Hange might not be as much of a genius but he trusted her wits to lead the Scouts after he was gone more so than Levi who both didn’t want it, and wasn’t fully certain how he would lead (as he mentions to Eren throughout the show).
This version sounds even more badass tha the original,and Erwin's voice actor is flawless!
CAN WE APPRECIATE HOW ERWINS HORSE CAME BACK FOR HIM
He inspires all species
@@justinlucciano8879yes 😎
@@justinlucciano8879bro could probably inspire a group of feral titans
Aren't they trained to do so? Idk but it was great! 😂💪🏽
Imagine how painful that shit must have been and yet hes still giving orders. What a badass
The fact he wasn't only willing to make that speech but immediately started riding forth before anyone could even react says everything about him as a commander. Dude was so inspiring as a fictional character that it's insane. Like this guy could convince me to ride into my death...
Greatest military Leader in all of anime.
I can't stop rewinding to when erwin said "I said advance goddammit!"
I bet Erwin cut off his own busted arm and still killed the Titan that made him lose it in the first place.
At 00:56 you can see someone going towards him
@Seven Tails Those 3 anyway. But ma man is still as legend
@@apexpradator9625 it’s only two unless I’m missing something
@@johngriffin5592 So there is one near the titans ass one alil above and the other one near its mouth o wait... IS THAT ERWIN???
@@apexpradator9625 yes it is, he still had his arm in the titan's mouth
Erwin predicted future “there is no future where mankind can inhabit this land and never will be” What a great character. My best character after Eren.
"I SAID ADVANCE GOD DAMNIT" bruhh 3 years ago and I still got chills, definitely one of my top 3 moments from erwin
Erwin is the most badass character in this entire show and you CANNOT Change my mind
this scene was cooler dubbed in my opinion
So you have choose... life
One of the few scenes where I did prefer the dubbed... just not a fan of Levi and Mikasa’s voice actors
Totally agree,badass at his best
@@fionnbarrcasey2156 i like both of them tbh. the only ones i don't like are eren and armin.
All Erwin scenes are better dubbed. This voice actor is incredible.
Goose bumps power level over 9000 XD
Got to feel sorry for the soldier who crashed his horse into another one and was sent flying right into a titan's mouth.
The dub is sooooo much better! Sub says “Advance! Erens in front of you! Advance!” Where as here he screams “I said advance goddammit! Do not falter!” So badass
This is when Erwin became a true leadership role model. Man was focused on retrieval even when he's injured.
Bert: “shut your mouth hellspawn! I’ll kill you!”
Erwin: *aight bet*
1:18 ...is it me or did I just see Erwin literally cut one of Reiner's armored fingers off? .
I SAID ADVANCE GODDAMN IT, that gave me goosebumps😂
Facts
For anyone curious as to how he survived that titan pause video at 0:56
that one brave soldier
David Midence that he was truly an unsung hero
I like to think that
1)He chop off his arm like the badass he is
Or
2)He killed the titan with one arm while hanging from its mouth like the badass he is
P.s this was a copied comment
david midence there’s two of you look closely
The big balls of erwin was to much weight for one cripled arm and he fell off leaving his arm at titans teeth
Yeah erwin is a badass and a great character , but don't forget all the scouts that died to retrieve eren , in erwins words " their lives have meaning because we the living refuse to forget them "
Literally his greatest quote imo!
Even when faced with death, Erwin never lost his focus or determination. He’s probably the most committed person I’ve ever known of, real or fictional.
Literally cried when he said “I said advance goddamn it”
unpopular opinion: dub erwin > sub erwin
Your definition of unpopular and my definition of unpopular are _very_ different
Oh no!.. the weebs will hunt you down and cleanse you for that "wrong" opinion haha
💯
I love this whole vibe of, "well if Mikasa's going then I guess I am," from Armin, and then Jean follows him, and then so on.
Such an effective leadership strategy from Erwin, knowing that at least one will follow him, cascading down the line until their all by his side!
Centuries before Kings used to be first to lead their men into war, but now the leaders cowardly hide behind their thrown.
Incredible he can yell so clearly and unfalteringly while his arm is being chewed off.
Soldier: Is this hell?
Ervin: It's about to be
*everything definetely goes straight to hell*
Erwin is the true definition of ULTRA GIGACHAD
"I SAID ADVANCE GOD DAMN IT!"
Man. Erwin was a BEAST. Definitely my favorite character!
The writers knew that if this man got the colossal titan, the show would end too quick. But seeing him reborn as commander magath was awesome, too.
"YOUR HEART AND SOUL TO THE CAUSE!!!!" erwins dub voice actor puts so much heart into his lines its hard not to get inspired
Literally the moment he became my top 3 anime characters. My goodness.
ª
Good job editing this together. Two excellent scenes. DO NOT FALTER!!!!!
"I SAID ADVANCE GODDAMN IT!!"
Usually i stick with subs, but holy shit. This is GOD TIER.
gets his arm chomped off and STILL comes back for the clutch. what a gangster
(Literally getting his arm chewed off)
*“I SAID ADVANCE, GOD DAMN IT!!!”*
Now *that* is a leader.
