keep moving forward, because there is nothing left for you to look back at other than regret, sins and suffering.

attack on titan's essence to me is what iam going to say next:

fighting for survival in pursuit of a dream. sustained by your ideals and the people you care about. but the world is cruel and unfair.It's all just one big cycle of hate, pain and suffering. repeating itself over and over. no one is safe, everyone is caught up in this insane maelstrom of seething rage and struggle for survival. your life might just get snuffed in an instant. all your worth and and everything you ever dedicated your heart to will disappear. Youll cease to exist. only your comrades will remember you. maybe in a way youll still live on, as a reminder of what was and what should be. maybe your death was a good thing? you're free now. you are free from this hell. all the burdens you shouldered are lifted. no more sins to atone for, no more dreams to sacrifice for and most importantly no more life to struggle to keep. attack on titan starts off as a story simply drenched in black and white, but as the series progresses the colors mix, capturing the complex morality and nature of humans. the series paints most of its characters in a shade of grey. this is what truly makes attack on titan amazing. all of this sets up stage for some of the greatest action scenes, morally complex dilemmas and most importantly the amazing character arcs and development that keep you attached hopefully till the very end.


things i learned from attack on titan:

we are all the same. no one is perfect. we're all sinful in one way or another. i dont think people will ever really understand one another. simply cuz of perspectives. well you see, to FULLY understand something one has to have ALL of the truth. but no one will ever have that, not unless you can view things from everyone's perspective or the other person's perspective. your own perspective or anyone's perspective in general are narrow little windows in which you view an ENTIRE WORLD. TRUTH will never be reached by anyone really. you can argue that people can talk it out or strive to understand each other but there is no guarantee that whatever insight youre gonna get is the TRUTH. maybe its just some "truth" thats being told to satisfy a false sense of curiosity or to shut you up. i said FALSE sense of curiosity cause no one genuinely wants to understand the other. we're just satisfied with our narrow viewpoint on everything. maybe we feel superior for being different or something idk tbh. i personally have struggled to understand people myself. anyways attack on titan's main weapon is PERSPECTIVES AND THE TRUTH. nothing is ever as simple as it initially seems in attack on titan AND I LOVE THAT SOOO MUCH MAN.

to conclude, i really just love attack on titan and i wish that whoever initially dismissed it as being OVERHYPED OR OVERRATED re-consider and give it another go with an open mind. Attack on titan will shock you , make you happy, make you sad and just make you experience just about every emotion there is in the wide spectrum of emotions. READ OR WATCH ATTACK ON TITAN.
