ACKERMAN PARALLELS
When Mikasa saw the bird it immediately reminded her of Eren, the bird wrapped the scarf around her, meaning Eren kept his promise that he will wrapped that scarf around Mikasa, even if it's the last time. And this is also the last scene in the final chapter we see Mikasa. On Levi Ackerman's last scene, he looked up and saw a plane, what if whenever he sees a plane it reminds him of Hange Zoë? Plus both ackermans have scars on their faces, so every time they look at the mirror it reminds them of Eren and Hange. The bird reminded Mikasa of Eren, and the scarf symbolizes their love for each other, the scarf is their red string of fate, always connecting them even beyond time, life and death. The plane reminded Levi of Hange and their sacrifice, Hange's first line on A Choice With No regrets manga " I was watching you.." and Levi's last line to Hange on ch 132 " Keep watching us" implies that they both looking after each other. Every time he looks up in the sky it will always remind him of Hange, for he knows Hange is always watching over him. Levi and Hange's string of fate is their matching scars, symbolizing that they are each other's half, they understand each other very well even if they are polar opposites, their matching scars connects them like they are each others' missing piece, their bond transcending even life and death. Also Eren wanted to live with Mikasa but he couldn't, and Hange also wanted to live Levi but they can't, they had to choose their responsibilities over their feelings, duty first before love.
Both Ackermans have scars on their faces, Mikasa's scar to remind her of Eren and Levi's scar to remind him of how Hange took care of him.
Both have something that could remind them of their love ones, for Mikasa, she has the scarf Eren gave her. For Levi and Hange, they had their matching scars and missing eyes, and Levi's wounds were tended by Hange.
The lyrics of Call Your Name fits them running away and wanting to live in peace.
The 🕊️ bird symbolizes Eren watching over Mikasa.
The✈️ plane symbolizes Hange watching over Levi.
Mikasa is Eren's freedom, and Eren is Mikasa's home.
Levi is Hange's safe place and Hange is Levi's life
(Zöe = means "life", and you can spell "live" in Levi; Levi and Hange, "Live and Life")
" You are my safe place with you I found my home.." -this line fits Mikasa to Eren so much
" You are my safe sky with you I am at peace" - from Safe Skies Archer by 4reuminct (wattpad), this line fits Levi to Hange so much

- randomly became a ring haver after seeing jean wear loads and get compliments from it.
- drives with one hand most times and the other is either on your thigh/knee.
- (if he’s driving a stick shift, he’ll take your hand and refuse to let go, it’s a right of passage).
- is not super into pda, but sometimes he forgets it’s not just the two of you and that you are in public.
- (one time he got really jealous when he saw you talking to jean at a party and approached you by grabbing your waist and pulling you close to his chest, wrapping his arms around your neck).
"why did you even do that?"
“i didn’t like the way he was all up in your space talking to you like that.”
“so you were jealous?”
“no.”

“got a message from sasha.”
“screw sasha, put your hands back in my hair.”
“what the fuck?”
“please.”
- is always taking pictures of you no matter what the occasion, you’re his muse (and he likes to use it is as leverage whenever you take a slip of him).
- when you guys are hanging out, his hands always have to be on you, whether he’s holding your hand, caressing your thigh or simply playing with your fingers.

- one time you and the gang all smoked up in his house and it ended up resulting in everyone leaving to go to the garden while you and eren made out for almost half an hour (everyone left after that).

“totally forgot i had class at 9, i’ll see you later, baby. love you :)”
- his love language is physical touch: he loves holding you, touching you in the slightest way, hugs, the works (but if you’re not feeling it, he will not do anything to obstruct your personal space)
- i see him also having gift giving as his love language, whatever he sees wherever he goes that makes him think of you, he gets it.
- when he’s co-oping with the boys playing a video game, he doesn’t want you to be bored or think he’s ignoring you so he’ll place you on his lap and teach you the ropes.

“that wasn’t me.”
“then who the fuck was it?”
“sorry guys, i’m a newcomer to this!”
- he loves it when you wear his clothes, even if it’s extremely too big for you, he finds it and you so cute.

- a moaner and a whiner. even if you poke a sensitive spot of his, he will find a way to whine unnecessarily.
- he’s always smiling when he’s around you, even if he isn’t having the best of days, your presence and even the mere thought of you will cheer him up.

A rant about Eren in the last chapter.
❗️Obviously there’s going to be spoilers.
Since I only have one friend that keeps up with aot manga who didn’t like the ending, I rant here.
Personally I loved the ending.
I think the peaceful nature of it was perfect. The chapter felt like a sigh of relief after a whole series about fighting and stress and worrying for their lives.
People are confused or angry about the fact that Eren turned “weak” and “his character completely changed” during the part he broke down over Mikasa and I just want to express how I viewed it.
First of all Eren’s “tough/cool/badass” version that we see after the time skip isn’t truly Eren. That’s not his personality that we all know. You can even see in the people making “what would the aot cast do if...” jokes on tiktok when they make two Eren’s, S1-3 Eren and S4 Eren. We know exactly what the real Eren is like from right up until season 4. He was impulsive, loud, angry, at times whiny and he never hid any of his emotions. But he was also passionate and we saw how much he cared for his friends and his goals.
Season 4 Eren was a complete personality flip, not because he grew in that direction but because he knew his future and what he had to do to carry out his goal. He had to push everyone away and shut off all of his emotions or else he wouldn’t have been able to do it. Because of this, this version of Eren didn’t even feel human, let alone like the Eren we knew.
Then Eren had to say his goodbyes and explain his plan to all his friends. This is where we start at the beginning of 139. For the first time in ages it feels like Eren is back, and he is heartbroken and exhausted. We even see Armin realising the extreme burden Eren had to carry “all alone.”
Eren is a 19 year old who’s childhood was stolen from him by the cruel world he lived in. He immediately became a soldier and never even got the chance to properly mature in his teenage years because he had so much responsibilities that were so much bigger than him. He had to deal with so much pain anyway even before he unlocked all the memories, and he even says himself that his thoughts became “incoherent.”
He is literally on the verge of a mental breakdown and when Armin brings up Mikasa, the person he loves most in the whole world and possibly would’ve ran away with if she told him she loved him, he finally snaps and shows what he’s really thinking.
Eren doesn’t want to die. Eren doesn’t want Mikasa to move on because all he wants is to live on with her. He hasn’t been able to live any sort of life his own way because he had responsibilities put on him since the day he was born.
Of course he was going to start whining about her. He’s human. Humans have selfish wants and he just wants this one thing he can never get. He sounds immature when he says it because he is immature. That whole part of their conversation honestly brings a smile to my face because of the childish nature of it.
He literally gave up his life and people are complaining because he whined a little bit to his best friend because he couldn’t be with the girl he loved. He is not “weak”, a “simp”, an “incel” or a “pussy” for this. He’s normal.
Eren Jaeger is still the best written character in AOT, and the fact we see his emotions just furthers that point for me.
Ending note: My apologies I’m not good at writing and this was not written to attack people who disliked the ending, everyone is entitled to their opinion. The only thing I will not accept is either side attacking people who don’t have the same opinions as them or attacking Hajime Isayama for how he ended his own story when he knows the characters the best.

Hunger Games didn’t really eat holes in my brain the way that it did for some other people but god the opening lines. The opening lines. Katniss wakes up in bed and immediately, instinctively reaches beside her, only to find the bed empty and cold. Before we even know her name – before we know literally anything about her or this world or her place in that world – we know that she loves someone. We know that she is reaching for where Prim should be, sleeping safe and warm beside her, but Prim is not there. She is not there, and her half of the bed is cold and empty. People talk about characters being “doomed by the narrative” when most of the time the character was literally just a well-foreshadowed death, but Prim WAS doomed by the narrative. It’s the very first thing we learned. It’s the most key, integral, important piece of information we’re given about everything that is about to happen: Every single choice Katniss makes is to protect her little sister, and it isn’t enough. In the end, Prim still dies. Prim was dead before the story even started. Katniss, reaching. Prim’s side of the bed was cold and empty. There is no version of this story where Prim could have been saved. Katniss, reaching. The very first thing she does in the series. She wakes, and she reaches, but Prim is already gone. THAT is how you do Doomed By The Narrative. Edit: Also it is key that there was literally nothing Katniss could have done differently. If she had not acted to save Prim, Prim would not have survived the Hunger Games. But by acting to save Prim, Katniss accidentally kicked off an entire rebellion and ultimately massively increased the amount of danger Prim was actually in. The key is that this is irrelevant. If Katniss had done literally anything differently, Prim still would have died. If Katniss had faltered or changed course at any point, Prim still would have died. There was never a point where Katniss could have changed Prim’s fate. There’s no version of this story where Prim lives to see the end of it. She’s dead before the story begins. That’s doomed by the narrative.
