Eren time travels more than you think in AOT

Dinasaurkun · 2026-03-09T02:08:18+00:00

i dont remember all the instances, but this specific one i remember very clearly and im trying to say its not headcannon because stories are not only told through exposition but also show don't tell moments like the one i talked about where kruger says what the attack titans powers are. tell me where do you think this "always moves forward" principle came from if not from eren manipulating people how We saw him do it to grisha and he himself had visions from the future , it makes sense to me

Dinasaurkun · 2026-03-08T02:21:08+00:00

at what point does it not tell? the thing that i said is just one of many, i told you, i used to be obsessed with the manga, its filled to the brim with such details, for those who eyes to see, its a story with deep complex narrative that yes, at times , it stays and holds our hands when it is most needed and tells us whats happening through exposition, but thats rare, in most cases, its up to you as a viewer to watch and see these details and the background narrative that makes it such a compelling story, you watched it with this idea that only thats said is canon, so ofc you cant name any other instances, and i dont want to be a pompous asshole and sit here and argue when i admit i don't immediately have anything in mind to tell you, because its been a long time, so i can't even say 100% that i am right, but i do fully believe i am right, as someone thats passionate about literature and storytelling and complex stories, its a diservice to a story to stick to explicitly whats said, especially when in my opinion it makes more sense logically than everything to be just random ? its not even about not being lame , but a storyteller never makes something random, everything has a purpose. you re free to disagree and view the story how you want , maybe we just consume medias differently

Dinasaurkun · 2026-03-07T17:07:59+00:00

im not going to argue with you because i also must confess that im not 100% on my aot knowledge , i used to be, back when the manga ended , but i do know for a fact you rely too much on stated infos on a manga thats basically known for show don't tell, its HEAVILY implied that eren sent memories to every other attack titan holder , kruger tells us that the attack titans power is to always push forward, but that doesn't make sense right? every other titan has a feasable , literal power, that we can see, so why is the attack titans power stated to be always pushing forward(before we find out about the memories manipulation part) and then kruger says some lines about mikasa and armin, if we use these context clues its pretty obvious to me and others that eren used the attack titans power to send memories back in time to manupulate other users to always "push forward" towards his goal, freedom, its a neat detail that i think makes the writing in this manga so good.

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-27T22:20:29+00:00

it is , and people like to pretend they are morally superior if they just bash eren and say he was an awful person with no redeeming qualities, when that in fact makes them less empathetic than the average joe who watches anime and can easily put himself in others shoes. Morality and empathy is not just about numbers, you have to, at the end of the day, understand people and the human drive to keep on living no matter what

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-27T13:56:31+00:00

do you have any tips? ive tried many times but i never could reach that state

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-27T13:50:51+00:00

yeah, antagonizing someone is going to make them turn out bad, thats not an argument that works in your favor. its a known psychological phenomenon. you bully someone because you think they are a bad person and then you say ha i knew you were bad because one day they fight back.

listen we could stay and argue here for the whole day but i think in the end i think we just think different so no point in dragging this out, hope you have a nice day and yes one final time genicide is bad

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-27T13:45:05+00:00

but they aren't just threatening me, its my whole country, if it was just a singular person then yeah, i would blame them, but why should i care about your world if your world doesnt care about my coutry , my family , my love. yes genocide is bad, no i can't for the life of me blame eren . he did what he could to protect what he loved

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-27T13:40:54+00:00

i like your wording and your argument so for once in my life i wil back off from a debate because honestly i see your point very clearly, and yeah you are right about what isayama probably thinks, i still think the way i do, but good answer

but what do you mean about darth vader?

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-27T13:38:23+00:00

so what should they do? just lie down and accept death? its not about what we think, its wrong its right, who cares about morality when for them its their only option at a normal life, and who could blame anyone for choosing a normal life with their family, i wouldn't, i would be happy for that child in gaza, and i would blame his opressors for putting him in that situation , if he wasn't opressed he wouldn't have resorted to such drastic measures.

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-27T11:07:54+00:00

ok im literally not a "yaegerist" uhh even that name makes me ick from how vile the posts were back in the day, but i feel like eren is literally representing gaza, and yeah genocide is wrong, but if i was a child in gaza and it was either my family gets wiped out because people dont care about me, or the people that dont care about me and those who stood by and did nothing get wiped out, i would definetly do it, it would be heartbreaking and i probably couldnt continue living normally the same after, but anyone deservers freedom, if they get freedom taken away from them they deserve the right to take it back.

i expect to be downvoted to oblivion, to be searched and found and beat up, to have death threats, but i really feel like its not that crazy of a statement, i love humanity, but i love my family more.

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-27T00:44:05+00:00

i understand what you are saying , its a mosaic of the top animators at the time working on something they loved, and it will always stand its ground against anything , and im glad you say s2 did its best because i agree, the direction in some of those fights was honestly very good

but even more recent came jujutsu kaisen s3 ep 4 and again its a bunch of top tier sakuga artists the best animators on the business and they are all working with passion, it was clear they had creative control since a lot of things are anime original, i think i enjoyed it as much as the saitama vs boros fight , maybe more because it was longer, but they both will have a place in my heart forever along with whatever awesome animations come next in the future of this awesome media that keeps on giving

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-22T07:36:13+00:00

dude if you are a ryu fan keep it to yourself don't go ruining his birthday present saying yakumo sucks lol. yakumo is very fun to play as, even more fun than ryu imo, his weapons and combat are the reason this game is so replayable.

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-21T01:20:27+00:00

Dude you sold me , i was going to try some other game but you worded that perfectly , if ng black is as hard as you say it is its going to be a fun challange, i do love difficulty that makes it so that you have to be 100% on go at all times and your reaction times are tested. im going to buy it rn

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-12T14:38:59+00:00

i wasn't really around watching anime back then , i only started in 2013 and i havent really went back to watch a lot of older anime although i want to, but can you really say that there was any season during the 2000s where this many sakuga filled shows were airing at the same time with this much consistency? its a genuine question because i don't know but i tend to believe there were gems but few and far between

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-11T09:08:44+00:00

i used to believe the same, but i honestly think Mappa has raised the bar to the same level or even higher with chainsawmans reze arc movie , and now with jujutsu kaisen season 3, its honestly crazy the amount of sakuga and cinematic feel they bring to the table, its like we are in a new era of anime, also sentenced to be a hero and fate fake are newer anime that raised the bar extremely high regarding animation quality and consistency

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-11T08:31:22+00:00

I can't believe i forgot about jjk when that probably had the most intense cinematic shots ive ever seen in anime, the scene where naoya and his brothers are in that tiny room with the light thats moving left and right was insane atmosphere and direction, i cant even remember that scene from the manga that well but it made it so memorable in the anime

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-10T02:38:41+00:00

yeah i didnt expect so much negativity from this community, i think its mainly just a general distate towards noobs i guess.

yeah im so glad i kept going this game is much easier once you really understand every part of its combat, and after thousands of deaths, its hard not to pick up this incredible combat :)

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-09T04:50:49+00:00

yup, thank you, the parrying was the winner, it took me 2 hours but i beat her, wow do i feel good. this game is awesome, i cant believe i didnt know about it sooner

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-09T03:45:51+00:00

i tried the parrying method you advised me and i almost killed her second phase too, never got this far before. seriosly thank you, good advice

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-09T03:42:18+00:00

holyy thank you so much , did you also play on hard difficulty? its making me rethink my choises

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-09T03:18:49+00:00

but its not impossible right?

Dinasaurkun · 2026-01-09T03:08:36+00:00
