Maybe it's bc I didn't ship JK until they became canon, but I never felt that he was a replacement just based on who Mikasa and Jean were portrayed during those 139 chapters. Mikasa is described as prideful, so is Jean to a certain degree.He's one of the rare person who called her out on her obsession with Eren which tells me that if he felt she was still being obsessed with E and was using as a replacement, he wouldn't had marry her. He never forced this relationship bc Mikasa was into in Eren, why would he start now? The point of EM was imo, to portray an unhealthy relationship. Her obsession was never abt how much she was in love with him, but rather how dependant she was to me, so comparing it to JK doesn't make sense.
Lol I don't like how the fandom throws around the words 'obsessed' or 'unhealthy' but I get your sentiment. EM as a relationship hasn't exactly been portrayed in a very good light. I mean it literally has been paralleled to king Fritz and Ymir. Now the two relationships themselves aren't similar but the parallel doesn't exist in a void and both are shown as relationships where the girl should let go. The message is there should be a limit to your devotion. When people claim Mikasa's love for Eren will remain greater than her love for Jean, by that logic Ymir's love for king Fritz is even greater. That's the whole point of that plot point, having a balance in your love and knowing when to stop. Mikasa's over attachment to Eren was literally her character flaw and she killed him out of her own choice. While she spent her life with Jean out of her own choice.
I personally think when it comes to EM, like many other things in AOT, the opinions are very polarised. It's either EM are soulmates who were meant to be or EM came out of nowhere. Both of which is untrue. EM, as a relationship was a disaster, yes, because they were emotionally incapable of forming a functional relationship with each other. Eren was a self centred person unable to love anyone in a mature way. His love is on paper, he loves a lot of people but won’t make compromises for said loved ones. That’s why he risks the lives of the same people whom he wants to live long happy lives. He loves, just not enough. And Mikasa was able to form balanced bonds with others but not Eren because of her extreme fear of losing him. When saving a drowning person, if you get close to them, they’ll hold on to you so tightly, you won’t be able to swim either and as a result you’ll both drown. But you can’t expect them to understand that, because of the extreme state of panic they’re in. They’re just holding on with everything to what they perceive as their only chance at surviving. That was Mikasa with Eren. To her, he became her last surviving family she cannot afford to lose at any cost and she held on to him with everything she got. Eren and Mikasa are not Romeo and Juliet, failed by society, failed by their elders, failed by everyone. EreMika was failed by EreMika. That's a tragedy, they were right there, always next to each other, it could've been so easy but it wasn't because of who they were. But the importance of EM isn’t in how good or bad or successful or whatever their relationship was. It’s in what it brought about. Mikasa is alive today because of Eren, Eren taught her how to live, showed her warmth in a cold world. Mikasa now has people in her life. She has a family. With Jean. Her childhood friend is Armin. She has other important friends, has a guardian like figure in Levi, has someone who connects her to her heritage, Kiyomi San. And she wouldn't have met any of these people had she not been with Eren. Eren is gone, but what Mikasa got from him (or through him) will last her entire lifetime. And from Eren's side, he ended up becoming a monster in the end. But still, there remains one person in the world to whom he will always be a reminder of beauty and not cruelty. Eren's beautiful side, however small compared to his cruel side, existed. And it lives through Mikasa. It has always been a pattern. Eren kills at age nine, Mikasa is saved. Eren turns into a titan and goes on a rampage, Mikasa is saved. Eren unlocks the power of the co-ordinate and kills Dina, Mikasa is saved. Eren does the rumbling, as a long term result of which Paradis gets nuked. But after Mikasa has lived a long life. Keep in mind, Eren in all these cases has been more focused on the destruction part, Eren has a natural tendency towards violence, he just needs an excuse. But Mikasa has always been saved by his monstrous acts. This is where EM's beauty and tragedy lies. Not in terms of being a romantic relatiosnship. Like they didn't even have a relationship to begin with.
And yes, I agree that Jean won't be with her if he felt like a replacement for Eren, neither will Mikasa be with him if she felt like she was settling for something that was only a second choice. Jean already had his own place in her life even when Eren was alive. Also, I personally don't think Jean was head over heels for Mikasa. Yes, he had feelings for her but I don't think when he sees her, his first thought is oooh I wanna marry her so bad. I think he sees her first and foremost as a precious friend. I believe when he came back and they fell in love, it was an experience for him as well. As in I don't think it was Jean trying to get her to say yes and finally succeeding, but their friendship getting deeper and then things growing through mutual inputs and taking a different turn. I don't think comparing any two relationships ever makes sense but for EM and JK, the two are way too different in nature.
I was thinking the other day about how Horikoshi switching gears and deciding to write Katsuki as a redeemable figure arguably wound up derailing Izuchako, even if it was slow and wasn't apparent right away. When a relationship with that much baggage gets forefront development and when Izuku can't really neatly move on with his life, it left Izuku and Ochako's dynamic with very little room to breath. Bakugou and Deku's relationship isn't canonically romantic, yet Bakugou wound up registering as an uncomfortable emotional elephant in the room in Izuku and Ochako's relationship.
(example: Deku and Ochako's cooldown hug scene was clearly supposed to be a 'big moment' for the ship, yet his breakdown was because he was upset about someone being mean about Bakugou, and her touch isn't enough to calm him down, so they needed Shinso. Even Kishimoto let Sakura at least have Sasuke's curse mark meltdown being very clearly about her AND her hug was what calmed him down.)
But something else I realized is that it's not just Katsuki; Todoroki and Momo kinda wound up taking over narrative duties that a lot of people assumed Ochako would have. Todoroki took over the "tertiary protagonist" role she seemed to have in the early prototype of the series, and Momo often feels more like a 'female lead' to the series than she does, where she wound up playing major, active roles in the most important arcs in the series so far like Kamino and The War, and generally became a leader to the class in both combat AND interpersonally.
Ochako's storyline just has this sad pattern of her constantly getting overshadowed or undermined by other characters narratively, especially past the earliest portions of the series. It was easy to ignore at first, and Horikoshi might pull a late-series saving throw, but overall, Ochako wound up being a frustrating character to be invested in.
Eren Jaeger’s Final Words
So there are many people unimpressed with the final statement given by Eren’s character, either finding it inconsistent with the build up to this point, or too ambiguous a motivation for trampling all over the world. I’m not really here to talk about the quality of the story, whether it was good or bad, because I don’t really care. However, I think it’s fascinating what the text is trying to say about Eren’s character and his motivation.
This is why, “I don’t know, shrug” is both an answer and not an answer to why Eren did what he did in the end. For making my point in this analysis, I’ll be talking about Eren’s character from Marley on showing both the Eren that appeared before Reiner, the one that talked to Zeke, and finally the one Armin saw are all the same person.
My issue with Eren in 139
Eren previously and repeatedly said he "keeps moving forward until his enemies are destroyed" NOT stopped by heroes (I talked before why Lelouch ending doesn't work on him), that he wants to "kill every last one of those animals" referring to both humans and titans using the same wording.
And then, when he touched Ymir in the Paths his motivation magically changed to keep moving forward to reach the result of Mikasa's choice, which is beheading him to set an example for Ymir.
The problem is we saw Ymir's "awakening" moment (i.e her tearful eyes) by Eren's famous speech "This is ends now. I will put an end to this world. Lend me your strength. You're no god. You're no slave. You're just a human being. You don't have to serve anyone. You're free to choose. Staying in here for entirety or end it all. Wasn't you who led me all the way here?" Then apparently that awakening moment was all for nothing.
Mikasa's last minute involvement was so surreal and incongruous to me.
You can't establish something, keep true to it throughout the series, then change it in the very last chapter with no reasonable explanation.
Anonymous asked:
Do you think AOT is better than FMAB?
sorry not sorry for the blunt answer but no, never, not in a million years, not even close, not for a number of reasons.
few reasons under the cut, because apparently I’m doing this instead of focusing in class. obviously there will be spoilers for both shows, and obviously some of this will be based on personal preference.

this is so cute
It bothers me that people still don’t know that Buckynat/Winterwidow is a canon ship.
In fact it’s Bucky’s only canon ship.
