RIP Kentaro Miura

I can’t believe it was kept in the wraps for 2 weeks… but I’m a bit flabbergasted and still processing that Kentaro Miura has passed away.

It’s pretty easy to understate how big his influence is in art. Without him, we wouldn’t get Dark Souls and Bloodborne, and the animators and artists of Castlevania explicitly said he was in an influence in their work.

Miura, in my opinion, had one of the greatest eyes for detail and some STRONG, STRONG, STRONG visual imagery almost untouched by… well a lot of people really.

He pushed the visual imagery of fantasy and horror in new and exciting ways, and it’s a test to his timeless writing that we’re still invested in Berserk for decades.

RIP Mr. Miura.

I really just need to get this off my chest right now:

Right now, it’s not the extra pages or Isayama that soured SnK, it’s the fans. Look, I know people hate the ending. I know people are disappointed. It’s hard to be satisfied with any ending with a series as great as SnK, let alone one that was lackluster and frustrating.

But calling SnK the worst piece of fiction ever written? Harassing people who don’t want to shit on the ending? Harassing the author? It’s like people have forgotten everything that this series has done.

What were people expecting with the ending, anyway? A picture-perfect ending wrapping up every loose end and answering every question? An ending that validated all of their headcanons?

Maybe people are expecting too much. People want a perfect story, but a perfect story isn’t possible. There will always be flaws and inconsistencies.

The ending isn’t the whole story. The ending doesn’t make or break a story. A shitty story with a great ending doesn’t make the whole story great, just like a great story with a shitty ending doesn’t make the whole story shitty. Not every action has to have a perfect and epic outcome. Not everything you dislike is bad.

If you hate the ending, that’s fine. I know it’s hard to like. If you love the ending, don’t let other people tell you you can’t. And if you hate the whole series now… why are you still here?

That’s all. And thank you to all of the fans who haven’t been toxic. You’re really what keeps this fandom alive.

So... About the last pages of SNK.

To be honest I was a little shook and while there are some things that I didn’t like, (and some others I didn’t really understood) I still think it’s a good example of how life works.

A lot of people say that Armin didn’t save Paradis at all since at the end it got destroyed anyway, but I want to remind you all that there was a period of peace long enough that Mikasa herself got to grow old, get married and have children of her own.

I get that it sucks to know at the end how Paradis got destroyed by war after everything that happened; but again that’s the reality of life. Nothing lasts for ever and no amount of “good actions” guarantee you a happy ending with no pain in sight.

As the song “Reluctant Heroes” says:

“The peaceful times have made us blind”.

We got to see Armin, Jean, Mikasa, Annie and everyone else with somewhat a “happy ending” in chapter 139, but that doesn’t mean there weren’t any struggles for them later in life; for all we know some of them could have died long before Mikasa did.

Life isn’t easy and it’s impossible to live without pain or difficulties of any kind, and I like that Isayama still had that mindset in the end.

And while some of you may see the new pages and may be reading this thinking: “So that’s all? Is life always painful and meaningless? Was everything they did for nothing?” I would like to remind you the fact that Mikasa had a family and while yes, she lost the man she loved (whether you see them as brothers or lovers), she also got to live a long life, to see her children grow up and lived peacefully that way until she died of age.

I don’t know about you guys, but if I were in Eren or Armin’s shoes, I would be one hundred percent satisfied just knowing that everything I did wasn’t in vain; that at least it changed things long enough for my loved ones to have their own life and be (hopefully) happy.

That being said (and while I could have gone with my life without ever reading the new pages lmao) the enormous hint that Titans may still come back in the end was quite a shook.

Still don’t know 100% how I feel about that, but tbh it’s still the same feeling I explained above. That’s life for you and it’s time for the next generation to struggle with their own problems. Just as in real life.

So good luck, “Beren”, sure as hell you’re gonna need it!

Paradis getting destroyed was the only thing that I found great because it just showed the reality of the world we live in.

Mikasa was already gone for a very long time since you can see that the buildings getting destroyed are more modern than the buildings we had when she was a granny.

Armin never failed to maintain peace because it feels like peace stayed for a while. The problem is that we cannot blame Armin or anyone for the outcome of Paradis. He was also old and he died. I have small faith when it comes to humanity so this is why I wasn't surprised over what happened. In the end, blaming Armin for something he could not control is not fair. He's not even alive anymore and at least during his lifetime and even after a good 50 years maybe, Paradis was in peace. Maybe the war just occured 100 years after Eren's death after all, who knows?

If AnR was possible, we would have gotten internal conflicts within Paradis. Even when humans were inside the walls, we had internal conflicts like S3 with the Uprising arc. Same goes for the Jeagerists with the things that occured in S4 + ch.110 to 139. So, people saying AnR was the solution, it wouldn't be.

I personally believe humans will never get to understand each other or make peace. What happened to Paradis was unfortunate yet realistic. Maybe the war occured because of a dispute? We will never know. All we can know is that even after great disaster such as what Eren created, the world isn't safe from a new disaster.

Humans never learn and if they did, half of our History wouldn't be repeated up until now.

and you won't change my mind about little Kevin going to pee near the tree and leave with his dog, next level of coping I know.(:
