- Because, like every shipper in this vast and ugly world, I happen to find them cute together. I like the way Eren respects and admires Levi, and I like the way Levi is like some kind of mentor for him and saves Eren's ass lmao
- Of course. Shingeki no Kyojin is my favorite manga regardless of my ships.
- I don't know about other Ereri/Riren shippers, but I don't consider SnK a romance centered story. Maybe, maaaaaybe YumiKuri (? Anyway, what I do know is that Levi is Eren's rol model... And that Levi thinks that Eren is the cleanest person in the SC, and he said that his ideal type is a person who meets his cleaning standars lol (? Oh and clue: idc I ship it anyways *nails emoji*
- In our world and society Eren is a child. In SnK's he's old enough to be a soldier and die for humanity so I'm pretty sure he's considered an adult there. And even if it wasn't, after the last chapter we can assume that, if electricity existed, they all lived during the XVIII century more or less...? If that's correct well, my grandmother got married at the age of 14 with my grandfather, who was 27. And it was legal, lol. Honestly, I'm so done with this old-ass argument like... If you don't like Ereri/Riren that's fine, don't ship it. No one's forcing you to. But don't bring me the age gap crap, we all know that Eren's not an innocent little boy...
- I'm 20. I have never liked anyone in my entire life so if I happen to fall in love with somebody, regardless of their age, I would fricking go for it (?
- Because he does things that a kid wouldn't do. I repeat, he is an adult in snk's universe.
- And I repeeeeeeat... He is an adult in snk's universe e_____e' our laws don't mean shit there because people are different, their society is different, their teenagers don't do the things our teenagers do, they are adults who fight in wars. Adults. Period.
- Idk, I'm not "some of us" -.- But I'm pretty sure I've seen Eruri shippers bullshitting in our tag in more than one occasion as well, so...
- I think so (?
- I'm a Riren shipper and I don't like femenine!Levi, therefore I try not to look too much into Ereri stuff (? But I don't think they do that to "conceal" the age gap, they just like femenine Levi and that's ok. I like my ukes a little femenine too. In fact, most of us don't even care to think about or mention the infamous age gap.
Yupp, finished this... I know you said that this was just "because you wanted to understand the fandom" but I couldn't help but notice the subtle bitterness (? Idk, I understand that y'all feel salty and hate Isayama and that's ok but like, chill...? Honestly, you wouldn't like reading a Riren/Ereri shipper questioning and low key attacking your ship in your ship's tag. Don't deny it, you wouldn't like that. So, please... Don't do it (? I'm really, reaaaally asking you nicely.
We can ship whatever we want and y'all will have to accept that and respect us, even if some Ereri/Riren shippers don't respect you. Because I can and I do respect you and your ship, even if I don't like Eruri (at ALL) and some of their shippers don't respect me. Try it (? It won't kill you, I promise. But it will, hopefully, help us to end this stupid ship war.
Peace~
