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.
Amazon’s casting choices don’t reflect the true racial diversity in Tolkien’s works and are focused on tokenism over real efforts to tackle the flaws in the text and make an inclusive vision of Arda
Amazon’s one major POC actress is playing a role that canonically involves her throne and her power being stolen from her by a genocidal colonizer who wants to exterminate the religious minority she’s part of
Amazon fired their Tolkien consultant and their unsafe set conditions caused the injuries of stuntpeople
Amazon as a company is unethical, directly opposed to progressive causes, and openly emotionally manipulating viewers to get them to watch the show
Amazon has done more real harm to actual people of color and other marginalized groups than their efforts to include nonwhite actors in relatively small or stereotypical roles can address
Amazon’s promotional materials for this show treat fans of color as props to further their agenda
REPOST THIS ANYWHERE YOU LIKE AS OFTEN AS YOU LIKE.
Wish you were here ❤️
actually humiliating how much i care about dean winchester.

Summary: Regulus finds a home in Sirius.
A small flash of light sprinted across the sky, a sign of Zeus’ arrival, an omen of weather to come, a gift of rain. A blessing. If Regulus was being honest he both loathed and loved muggy weather. It was to similar to him to be liked, but just similar enough to be called “home” of sorts.
The gray sky was suffocating, and the rain freeing and cleansing.
The gloomy boy currently sat on a train, a small suitcase and a bag accompanying him. It’d been quite some time since he’d been anywhere other than the House of Black, or Hogwarts, he felt thrilled. And terrified. Terrified of the destination that awaited him.
He only hoped that Sirius’ offer still stood, that after everything Sirius would accept him- him and his mistakes. That maybe even he would hug him, and whisper naive lies to him, that everything would be okay.
Outside the window the scenery was darkening by the minute, the air filled with electricity. The sky crying, more honest and self-aware then Regulus could ever be.
Soon the train started to slow and before long home was near.
While Sirius’ home may be the Potter’s and their lovely home, Regulus found his home to be where his dear brother was.
Just one more stop, and Regulus would reunite with his long awaited home.

A/N: Idk what this is, I’m only posting it cause Tumblr has deleted all my other works soo...
This....this breaks my heart. He just...really doesnt get it does he? How absolutely fucked everyone would've been if Armin HAD died. About how hes given EVERYTHING to those around him. He fucking threw away his life for this cause and still he thinks it's not enough? He didn't become the commander because of his pretty eyes, it's because people believe and value him but he just wont accept it because it his deeply ingrained insecurities and self hatred.
Armin is one of the most relatable, flawed and human characters in this franchise and I'm reminded that this is why hes my favourite character and HAS been since 2013. And I just keep thinking back to the beginning when people called his character useless or made him nothing other than the butt of jokes and never taking him seriously when his character offers a perspective into the person who isnt "special" like Eren or physically strong like Reiner or talented like Mikasa. He wasnt even in the top 10 during cadets, yet has proved to be the most important character in this fucking story.
Hes was a normal person thrusted into this hell of a situation between humans vs titans and humans vs humans. Hes not academically exceptional, that's Hange. But what he does have is a good head, a mind for strategy. His observant nature allows him to see things from different perspectives and his out of the box thinking has been the saving grace of this narrative. The thing he used to be bullied for, the thing that would get him beaten up, HIS MIND, is his greatest asset besides his hopeful, kind and genuine personality and ambition.
His character handled depression, insecurities and dissociation. It handled suicide and survivors guilt. And people just... just didnt care, and I was made fun of for adoring him because I saw myself in him.
I dont even know why people were so prone to shitting on him. cuz he wasnt attractive? (Even tho he really is) because hes voiced by a woman? Probably something stupid. Probably because he leans more towards feminine traits than masculine and that belittles him?
I remeber when an ex-friend of mine had the audacity to get annoyed that Armin was crying and wanting to die after Eren was eaten during the invasion of Trost. As if....as if it was a babies reaction. "He should be fighting not wallowing, it's so annoying," like THIS MAN JUST WATCHED HIS BEST FRIEND GET EATEN and you think hes just gonna shrug it off? Fucking hell, he's human. It's a human reaction! "Mikasa was fine," no, no SHE WASNT. she tried to kill herself too! Because that's a human reaction to your loved ones getting brutally slaughtered.
Jokes on you lot. Because this useless character? Hes stepped into the protagonist role left behind when Eren became the Anti hero/antagonist and I couldnt be happier. Hes such a well written character and while I did not always agree, I love that Yams has clearly put so much thought into his character despite him not being a fan favourite.
wait this is adorable
