i’m really just sad ab connie and jean 😞 also how was eren making a kissy face after he got decapitated LOL

Isayama really did my mans Jean and Connie dirty. Don't get me started on Reiner!

I feel like that kiss at the end was more of a brush than anything. Eren looked like he was already dead at that point.

Still salty about that. I don't think he deserved that.

ILL SAY IT HERE AND ILL SAY IT AGAIN. EREN DOESN'T DESERVE MIKASA'S LOVE.

It's just too... rainbowy? I didn't mind it (I was too excited to watch lol), but the imagery was on point

The problem to me in itself is not that the imagery of the new opening is bad (although it's inconsistent), it's that it doesn't have anything to do with the current arc.

There was more than just WW1/2 imagery in the Marley Arc. And all the explosions... There's like only two battles, the one at the start and the one at the end. (Not spoiling anything for the anime watchers.)

The imagery going back to it is inconsistent at best. WW1/2 style of documentary, rainbows ? Why, Bad CGI, some artsy symbolic stuff that just doesn't work. It tries to be this edgy, surreal stuff but it's the last thing I want from SNK.

The music is also just bad, the singer doesn't seem to hold a note without dying of a stroke and the rest... LA DI DA DA DI DI DI DA!!! ???? AM I WATCHING MY LITTLE PONY???!! (On second thought I think it could be about the brainwashed Warriors but still it seems like it comes from a Disney movie where you know the evil comic relief has a song.) And the instrumental just doesn't flow very well.

The only good thing about it is that it ends and it ends with the Attack Titan as a devilish looking type of creature but other than that it's just bad and misses everything about the arc which is about : perspective, politics, worldbuilding, trauma, depression, suicide, child abuse and usage and facing your own inner "sins".

Other than that opening the episode was almost perfect. Story wise, directing wise, music wise, DESIGN WISE. Everything was good especially since it looks close to the manga.

I also like the ending which fits at least with something which is Falco.

Again, It's just my opinion.

And I can kinda... see... why people would like it but it didn't come through for me.

Hello, sorry to bother you but I saw your tumblr post about the Shelter from the Rain - Special Edition. It included a story about Mikasa and Eren, but there was no link to it like the others. Does that mean the story isn't out yet?

The story had been released on the AU Smartpass Website to Japanese Subscribers for quite some time, and compiled into the Shingeki no Kyojin: Short Stories 5 Booklet, that came with the Limited Edition version of (Japanese & Chinese) SnK Vol 31 last April 2020 and October 2020 respectively.

But till now, no one had translated it from Japanese (or Chinese) to English.

I know @tsuki-no-ura had agree to translate it so till it’s done, we will have to wait.

but why portray Mikasa as a damsel in distress?

*Side-eyeing @nyamiou‘s art*

(15 minutes later…)

Oh I know why now.

Mikasa is not a damsel in distress, she is an Ackerman in distress after Eren distressed her with all the Ackerman bond P A T H S big reveals.

I wonder why Isayama wanted to take out Levi intimidating Historia. & Explaining his "abnormal" personality. I know it wouldn't have fit the narrative, since the plot was rearranged. & Why were Levi's abs censored?

I’m very late responding to these but I just finished rewatching season 3 in the dub, and I’m still v angry about Levi’s intimidation tactic being yeeted, as well as the abs

It’s probably bc the fandom thirsted too much over this man in the 4 years of anticipation for s2

So isayama was just like

“make him uglier, good god.”

but man we we deprived of many ab shots

Hey nonnies! I’m going to answer your asks now :)

I haven’t been on tumblr but time to be back to that lmao.

Mikasa and Jean for the ask? Please rest and get better! ❤️

Hello!!!! Thank you for the ask!!

Mikasa: Person you’d do anything for?

I have more than one lol I would say my mom even though things aren’t the greatest, I’d still do anything for her. Also my two cousins I am closest to. I would go to hell and back for them. Same goes for my very best friend @zedsdead1001 ❤️❤️❤️ Love you 🐧🐧🐧

Jean: Celebrity you most resemble?

I don’t think I resemble anyone in looks but personality wise, my cousin always says I remind her of her favorite Bts member, J-hope because I’m always smiling and being positive for everyone and following my dreams. I unfortunately do not have his dancing ability lol

Thank you so much for the ask and the well wishes. I’m feeling slightly better today 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

GOTTA BE BASIC and go with Marco. :'D

Basic or Classic? Marco is amazing. <3

What they smell like: Marco would have a musky, almost woodsy smell to him. Like hiking andfresh air.

How they sleep (sleeping position, schedule, etc): I imagine Marco either sleeps on his side, or on his stomach. Witheither lots of blankets, or a really big one that can wrap tightly around him. Also, he’d be an early riser.

What music they enjoy: If we’re staying canon, I think he’d enjoy guitar. Folksy and gentle, orsomething lively that can be danced to, either way I think Marco would loveacoustic guitar. If we’re expanding into modern AUs, then I think he’d stillenjoy the aforementioned, but I also think he’d be big into bands like TheNational, Interpol, and Jimmy Eat World. Also, Marco loves 1950s Rock and Roll,and in particular Buddy Holly. :)

How much time they spend getting ready every morning:Marco seems like a morning-shower kind of guy. So between showering,dressing, and taming a headful of unruly cowlicks, I’d say half an hour?

Their favorite thing to collect: Hm. In canonverse I could see Marco hanging onto interesting lookingstones from time to time, though probably not much else. If modern AU, I thinkhe’d be practical about the stuff he owns. He doesn’t put much thought into it,but is more apt to check out a book as opposed to buying it. He owned lots ofcds in high school, but now his music is digitized.

Left or right-handed: Naturally right-handed, but probably took the time to learn howto be ambidextrous. 

Religion (if any): I think Marco comes from a religious family, and while he might not stopbelieving in God or an afterlife, that he personally just kind of falls out ofit.

Favorite sport: To partake in himself? Running or hunting. I could see himplaying ice hockey as a kid, too. :)

Favorite touristy thing to do when traveling (museums, local food, sightseeing, etc): Marco would be all about local food and music.

Favorite kind of weather: Cool, sunny days.

A weird/obscure fear they have: I think Marco would be most afraid of being a burden. He wantsto serve others, and makes damn sure he’s doing something to earn his keep.Thankfully, I think he’s also logical enough to realize that while he feelsthis way, and has assessed his own strengths and weaknesses, that others wouldonly ever consider him an asset, and never a detriment to the whole.

The carnival/arcade game they always win without fail: Anything that involves shooting.
