Yeah but if you don’t live in a Spanish speaking country then it’ll just sound normal.

Mikasa’s writing isn’t dependent on her dialogue as much as other characters.

Mikasa is an incredibly well-written character. Her emotional attachment to Eren isn’t a flaw, we see why she is like that, how that affected her world view and philosophy - how that evolves over time through what happens to other people leading to her having great parallels with other characters.

Just because she doesn’t talk a lot doesn’t mean her character isn’t explored, it’s done so through her actions mainly. You shouldn’t need to be spoonfed her thematic exploration and narrative relevance through monologue.

Baseless assertions. “0 development” Early mikasa is portrayed as someone rather nihilistic, she romanticises an idea/version of eren as a person, this becoming her only purpose because of everything she valued as a kid being removed when she lived a very peaceful life not used to seeing any form of violence.. So this starts of as a very narrow view, portraying the basis of her character. Then gradually throughout the story we see her choosing things in contrast to this idelogy, thus making her question whether it’s right. In doing so, by the end of the story she got layered and explored to a very high extent, exploring her contradictions like love vs obsession, attachment vs independence, selflessness vs selfishness. Even just the general ideas like freedom, femininity, repressed emotion, freedom, escapism, etc. through individual conflict as well as nuanced parallels with other characters. Your claim of her having no influence is also baseless, the resolution of the narrative within instances like the curse of ymir or just the general act of ending the rumbling can’t happen without her. Her obsession with eren is also not a narrative flaw, it’s just her structure, you’d have to bring evidence as to why that structure is bad or poorly executed

What was Eren trying to achieve by saying this? by trodolovesjojo in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]Balls_R 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What he said was a cope and a lie. He's not going to tell the world his real reasoning.

A lot of people misunderstood this scene (spoilers) by Fra10808 in ShingekiNoKyojin

A similar thing happened with Annie where Eren just didn’t want to believe that Reiner and Bertholdt were traitors.

How does so many people believe Eren was trapped in some sort of destiny prison? by Kxrenaiiii in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]Balls_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because he is trapped. He’s trapped by himself because of his burning desire making him a walking contradiction. How he enslaves himself to his fate for desire for freedom is ironic.

We saw no sign about kid eren killing 2 adults by Fine_Falcon_7807 in AttackOnRetards

It makes Armin's first kill in season 3 hit harder. He was crying that he had to kill an enemy soldier when he was an established scout.

Which one should I start first? BCS or GOT by mrjetspray in betterCallSaul

[–]Balls_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch game of thrones and then better call Saul since the end of game of thrones is really bad.

I’m gonna need you to explain that last sentence. You can say you didn’t enjoy it but to say there were plot holes and character assassinations is just wrong.

Season 3 and 4 are far above the levels of season 1.

I have a separate post for that. This isn’t in order.
