What do you think of the ending? Particularly manga vs anime

I’ve only watched the anime once, but I was really into it, finished it in 3 days, that was 2 days ago, so it’s all very fresh in my mind, but still quite a noob about the story overall, I’m looking forward to watching it again.

Im really curious what people think of the ending, I’ve seen such mixed reactions. I would like to hear your thoughts on it and why.

I personally thought it made it very clear that Eren was in the wrong and should not have done what he did, that it wasn’t the only option. I particularly liked the conversation he had with Armin where he himself even admits to this, that while it was the only outcome he could see, that’s only because he’s an idiot who shouldn’t have had that amount of power. He admits to his hatred and how it did play a role, that it wasn’t entirely to save paradis and that was just an excuse to justify this decision when it’s actually fuelled by his hatred. Those two things make me very confused when people get the understanding that the anime was supporting what he did, so I just want to hear other people’s perspectives and why they feel/think a certain way about the ending as I’m struggling to understand other perspectives than my own. I’m just curious and want to learn, not trying to attack anyone for having different opinions.

I’m also curious what differences there are between the manga and anime ending, is that possibly where some of my confusion is coming from? Am I mistaking some people’s opinions about the manga to be about the anime but there are differences between the two that would cause me to have a different understanding of the ending?

Wanting to get a quote from the show tattooed in japanese

Hey Everyone, I’m building an AOT themed piece on my forearm, already have the sword and birds around it and want to add a quote from the show in japanese. Any suggestions? And any quotes that any of you have gotten tattooed? Ideally don’t want it to be to many characters only a few, around 3-6 would be ideal!

NOT MIKASA HATE!

Does anyone else find it kinda funny how let’s be honest one of the weaker characters (writing wise) ended up getting arguably the most emotionally poignant ending out of any character in the series

Finished watching AOT

Just finished watching Attack on Titan after a few months, and wow, what a journey. The story was intense, with powerful moments of character development. I found it challenging to follow at times with all the shifts in perspective and the nonlinear timeline, but it ultimately made the plot richer.

The last two seasons stood out to me, especially the final one. It was packed with complex psychological conflicts that constantly kept me wondering, “Who am I supposed to root for?” The depth of loss, the relentless gore, and the bleak drama were both exhausting and captivating. I couldn’t help but feel echoes of real-world conflicts, especially the Israel-Palestine situation, as the story explores humanity's universal desire for freedom and a life without barriers. I also noticed what seemed like allusions to WWII; Armin’s transformation felt like a symbolic nod to the atomic bomb, adding layers to the story’s commentary on power and devastation.

All in all, Attack on Titan was an incredible show that deserves a rewatch, but I think I need to let it sink in first. It’s one of those experiences that really stays with you.

What is freedom

Freedom is no constraints to agency or releasement from to a desired outcome or ability to do what want to do at anytime or your right about what is your right about or no barriers or desired space

  1. Absence of Constraints: This emphasizes the importance of individual autonomy and the right to act without undue interference.

  2. Releasement to a Desired Outcome: This highlights the ability to pursue one's goals and aspirations.

  3. Ability to Act Freely: This refers to the power to make choices and act according to one's desires.

  4. Recognition of Rights: This acknowledges the importance of individual rights and the need to respect the rights of others.

  5. No Barriers: This emphasizes the absence of obstacles that hinder individual freedom.

  6. Desired Space: This highlights the importance of having the necessary space and resources to pursue one's goals and aspirations.

General Analysis

The quote "Freedom is no constraints to agency or releasement from to a desired outcome or ability to do what want to do at anytime or your right about what is your right about or no barriers or desired space" presents a complex and somewhat convoluted understanding of freedom. Here’s an analysis of its meaning, significance, and tone:

Meaning:

  1. Freedom and Agency: The quote suggests that freedom entails the absence of constraints on one's ability to act (agency). This implies that true freedom allows individuals to make choices without external limitations.

  2. Desired Outcomes: The phrase "releasement from to a desired outcome" seems to imply that freedom is not just about the ability to pursue any outcome but also about being liberated from the pressures or expectations associated with those outcomes.

  3. Autonomy: The reference to "the ability to do what want to do at anytime" emphasizes personal autonomy, indicating that freedom includes the capacity to choose one's actions according to one’s own desires.

  4. Rights and Barriers: The mention of "your right about what is your right about" and "no barriers or desired space" suggests an intrinsic connection between freedom and the recognition and protection of individual rights. It points to the idea that freedom is also about having the space to express oneself and pursue one's interests without hindrance.

Significance:

  • Complexity of Freedom: The quote underscores the multifaceted nature of freedom, encompassing both personal agency and the absence of societal or institutional barriers.

  • Philosophical Reflection: It invites reflection on the philosophical underpinnings of freedom, challenging the reader to consider what true freedom means in practice, especially in contexts where rights and agency are often contested.

  • Social Commentary: It may also serve as a critique of systems or structures that impose constraints on individual freedom, highlighting the importance of creating environments that support autonomy and self-determination.

Tone:

  • Ambiguous and Abstract: The tone of the quote can be perceived as somewhat abstract, as it uses complex phrasing and ideas that may feel convoluted or unclear. This could lead to various interpretations, making it open to debate.

  • Idealistic: There is an idealistic quality to the notion of freedom presented, as it envisions a state of existence where individuals are wholly unencumbered by constraints—a condition that, while appealing, is challenging to achieve in reality.

  • Philosophical: The tone also carries a philosophical weight, prompting deeper thinking about the nature of freedom and the barriers that individuals face in exercising it.

In summary, the quote presents a broad and nuanced view of freedom, emphasizing personal agency, autonomy, rights, and the absence of barriers. Its complexity invites interpretation and reflection, making it significant in discussions about individual freedom and societal constraints.

Literary Analysis

The quote you provided presents a complex idea about freedom, and although it lacks a clear author, we can analyze it using various literary devices. Here are some observations:

1. Ambiguity:

The quote is somewhat ambiguous, particularly in its phrasing. The use of terms like "releasement" and "desired space" creates a sense of vagueness, allowing for multiple interpretations of what freedom entails.

2. Paradox:

The phrase "no constraints to agency" suggests that freedom is inherently linked to the ability to act without limitations. However, this can be seen as a paradox, as too much freedom can lead to chaos or uncertainty, challenging the very concept of agency.

3. Parallelism:

The quote employs a form of parallel structure, particularly in the repetition of phrases like "no constraints," "no barriers," and "your right about what is your right." This repetition emphasizes the various dimensions of freedom and highlights the interconnectedness of these ideas.

4. Enumeration:

The use of a list-like structure ("constraints to agency," "releasement from a desired outcome," "ability to do what want to do") suggests an attempt to define freedom through multiple lenses, creating a sense of complexity around the concept.

5. Connotation:

The words used, such as "constraints," "agency," and "barriers," carry significant connotations that evoke feelings of restriction and liberation. The juxtaposition of these terms highlights the struggle between freedom and the limitations imposed by society or oneself.

6. Syntax:

The syntax of the quote is somewhat convoluted, which might reflect the complexity of the idea being presented. The lack of clear punctuation can lead to confusion, mirroring the sometimes chaotic nature of discussions about freedom.

7. Imagery:

While not overtly figurative, the mention of "desired space" conjures an image of personal territory or autonomy, suggesting that freedom is also about having the physical and mental space to express oneself.

8. Repetition:

Repetition is used effectively to stress key concepts, particularly with the terms that revolve around rights and barriers. This reinforces the idea that freedom is multifaceted and encompasses various rights and limitations.

Conclusion:

Overall, the quote reflects a complex and multifaceted view of freedom. Through the use of ambiguity, parallelism, and enumeration, it invites the reader to contemplate the many layers of what it means to be free. The literary devices employed enhance the depth of the message, encouraging a nuanced understanding of freedom in relation to agency, rights, and societal constraints.

How do I get my bf into Attack on Titan

Hi. Recently I've been trying to get my bf to watch AoT. I introduced him to anime and so far he's liked JJK and Demon Slayer with One Punch Man being his favorite. AoT has a special place in my heart because it was my first one so I really want him to watch. Plus I think he'll really like it because. he's very analytical. Anyways. We got to the point where Eren's titan carry's the boulder to plug the wall and he didn't want to keep watching. He said Eren was annoying any whiny and that Armin was stupid and it was luck any of his plans have worked.

So I question is: how can I convince my bf to continue watching?

S4EP9 Historia and Beast Titan

So, Zeke’s plan is to make Historia have children to inherit the beast titan so the option to start the Rumbling is available?

Wouldn’t Historia and her children be under the will of King Fritz and not be able to start the rumbling?

I found an edit/amv I made way back in 2021 for aot

I still think it’s pretty cool to this day. I noticed some mistakes I ended up making where I had to add on audio at a certain point, but it didn’t blend together very well lmao. Also I didn’t make so many edit cuts because I was trying to match up the clips with the song.

Best way to watch

Hey y’all, I’m rewatching SNK with my partner and we’d want to watch the story unfold as smoothly as possible, going through it arc by arc. The problem is, some arcs are 2 episodes, others are 10 or more. Could someone make a watchlist of the anime cutting the 10+ episodes arcs into smaller ones ?

Idk if I’m being clear 😅
