I absolutely love Attack on Titan and it's one of the best anime's I have ever seen. Even the clown show ending from the manga has been fixed to an great extent in the anime. The anime has so many excellent moments which are some of the best written scenes in anime.

The fanbase is insufferable though. It's either full of "Eren is literally me" mfs or glazers with no sense of reality and I'm pissed at liking the same thing as them.

    I don't think guys with green magic rings doing stunts in airplanes is fascist.

    That's all the kids see

        Slapping a sticker on a vehicle does not make it fascist. That's entirely superficial.

        Superman does not become more or less fascist based on whether he crash lands in Kansas or Ukraine. Spiderman does not become more or less fascist based on whether he's swinging through New York City or Shanghai or Jakarta or Rio. There's plenty to criticize in Green Lantern, particularly when it leaned into the Space Cops motif. Just pointing at the plane Hal Gordon was crashing when he got his ring and saying "Fascist because American" doesn't cut it.

        If the worst thing John McCain ever did was crash an F-16 in New Mexico while colliding with magic jewelry, he wouldn't have earned that tumor.
