‘yeah im pretty into snk’ i say, actively avoiding anything that has to do with the 3 main characters
#literally everyone else is more interesting :|#im not tryna start anything im just voicing my shower thoughts#my old feelings toward eren were meh at best but once the atrocities started i was like oughhh i hate him now#something something the banality of evil or whatever. yeah we get it the world is cruel and you want to be free#but you are the cruelest man in the world and the most enslaved by hatred and selfish desire. boo.#mikasa i thought was boring and a product of female shonen character syndrome but i like her more than i used to#i have been waiting 4 seasons for her to become her own person and if that happens i think i could really love her#theres a lot riding on how her story ends though. i thought she was about to break free but then in the last episode shes like#am i to blame for my not-bf's insane genocidal rampage?? and im like girl PLEASE I AM BEGGING YOU TO STOP#big sign that says **HADLAI THIS IS NOT A PERSONAL ATTACK BUT DONT READ PAST THIS IF YOU DONT WANT 2 HEAR ME COMPLAIN ABOUT YOUR BLORBO**#i used to like armin but his approval ratings have TANKED in season 4#im tired of people acting like armin is some uwu innocent boy or has any sort of moral leg to stand on#part of that could be the weird infantilization and or feminization the fandom forces on him. but it is very much a narrative problem too#name one good thing he's done (other than saving falco) since levi resurrected him. he is in his flop era for real#where are the big brain plays we were promised. i cannot get over how STUPID he was to convince the 104th to help eren in shiganshina#shoulda left him crispy on that roof and maybe we wouldnt be in this situation#and theres the whole nuking the liberio port thing which is like. ok other characters have committed similar atrocities#but they get flamed by the narrative and other characters for it#i think yelena brings it up once during the airing of grievances but i want to see reiner-level suffering and fallout from all this stuff#feeling incredibly dissatisfied with how s 4 handles him. i cant put my finger on it entirely but#to me it feels like there are narrative promises that have not been delivered on. its vague but that's all i got for now#or perhaps narrative precedents that are not being met#i will need to consult my sister because i am certain she feels the same way and she might have it in words already#me and crankycorvid were talking along similar lines too so i know im not alone in this#anyway stan hanji zoe
