Actually wait no.
Do you ship Eren/Levi.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-18 05:39 am (UTC)(link)On topic, it kinda boggles my mind how popular Bertholdt and Reiner are. Then again, this is the same fandom that is enamored with a nobody like Marco so I shouldn't be too surprised.

Though I'm sure you aren't as shallow and boring as you say anon. I mean you said it yourself, you don't like Crista.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-18 06:06 am (UTC)(link)And Eren is just grating. So I'm just boggled by how popular Levi/Eren is. Don't get me started o Mikasa.
Unfortunately, I am. But thank you. :)

I also struggle with actually liking Eren but I can stand him. He gets the job done. Also I like what he represents as part of the story. Honestly I had a hard time liking the entire main three until I watched:

And I appreciate them more now, even though they aren't my personal favorites.
I'm baffled by the love for the villains in this series though, and find the grimdark fanart and discussion surrounding them to be comically melodramatic sometimes. Poor, poor murderers.
What's your problem with Mikasa? She's tough for me, because what Isayama was trying to do with her is so obvious but in the currently limited portrayals of female characters in shounen, she both does and does not work. She is an inverse of the overpowered male character who vows to protect a weaker female character, especially noteworthy because Eren is the main man, but at the end of the day she is still a female character who's world revolves around a male, and she even might have a crush on him which is so unnecessary. Also outside of her complex surrounding Eren, she's kind of barren as a character. I used to just think she was boring but now I don't know what to make of her. She just is what she is.
Well if you say so. But I doubt you're any more boring than most people. You think I do something interesting in between comments here? Nah. I stare at the fly on the wall that stopped moving an hour ago. Is this the price one pays for being immensely interesting? Hard to tell.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-18 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)I'm not sure if I'd got so far to say that Levi is out of place in the world, but he does seem like he was put in there for the sake of having a character like him. I liked his squad more than I liked Levih himself.
Thanks for the link! I will give it a watch later tonight. Hopefully it might give me a new way at looking at the main three. I like what Eren represents, but he's an annoying hothead. Oh yeah, I don't get the love for Reiner and Bertolt. Like, I'm supposed to feel sorry for you that you caused the death of countless people just so you could retrieve the coordinate and get home? Dude, one of you is the fucking Colossal Titan, I'm sure you could have made it home somehow without pulling that shit. You had options.
You've basically summed up my problem with Mikasa. I heard how badass she was and how the damsel in distress roles were reversed with her and Eren, so I was super excited to see that. But she has no character of her own or interests outside of Eren. And she's as interesting as a plank of wood because of it.
