The claim Eren did the rumbling essentially for his obsessive desire for freedom is wrong, I think. To take a character's words at face value isn't how we read a work; at this juncture we suspect and see through words. The emotion painting his actions is more revealing it's not this freedom he seeks
An offense in Attack on Titan is the deeper repercussions of treating humans as utility in the name of a cause, be it heinous plunder belied as 'progress' or truly noble as liberation. When humans begin to see their life as nothing outside utility, they slowly lose their sense of life's preciousness
Attack on Titan's tragedy is anchored on specific offenses that violate what can be humanly handled and naturally allowed. They're the driving force of the story's dilemma and pain, and Eren Jaeger's fall. It calls into question what can be borne and committed by humans before the collective breaks.
Another offense in Attack on Titan is a suggestion of the lack of complete explicability of a catastrophic event or a person's drive and motivation. Not even the notion of 'fate' or determinism can suffice to explain an event or action. An offensive mystification, it exposes the absurdity in things.
Attack on Titan breaks the easy assumption that compatibilism is fate being the same as what's willed and desired by a person, i.e. an absolute equivalence. The series dares to hint inner agony a person endures and disbelief and dissent a person harbors as they fall into the trap of false necessity.
Another breach of Attack on Titan is its contradiction of showing a villain, conforming to genre expectation, while expounding on the context that caused the catastrophe, pointing with an invisible finger at the collective conditions that 𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 a catastrophe. Its dual message may or may not be read.

Is anyone else struggling to enjoy being online lately?

Am I depressed or just tired of the current landscape of social media and algorithms, economic and political unease, puritism, gate keeping, and lack of the type of fandom engagement that made things fun and worth putting up with some ick?

I've recently grown slightly obsessed with Jean Kirschtein, hence, Erejean, too. And since Yuji Itadori reminds me of Jean, because of some resemblance between them, I've gotten more interested in Yuji, too. I'm weird.

I'm excited to see this. The art (by the amazing Wit Studio) is beautiful. The story is promising. I hope this will be another beloved shoujo for me. 💗

死んだ人間が何を考えていたかなんて分からないのと同じ様に、生前の光のことも分からない様に描いていますので、答えは存在しないというのが正しいです。
大事なのは生前の光の気持ちではなく、よしきがどう感じていたかだと思います。

The film looks beautiful. I'll feast on the cinematography when I see this. And of course, Lav Diaz's wonderful rhythm. 💗

「性別を超えた愛」は素敵ですが、ひかなつでは「性的指向という乗り越え難い壁」を意識しています。
ストレートが簡単に同性を愛せる様になる世界なら、よしきはあまり苦しんでいないと思います。

海外のファンの方は凄く考察してくれて楽しいです。ですが、「ヒカル(怪物)は光(人間)の隠していた気持ちを代弁しているだけで、ヒカル(怪物)に意思はない」というのは明確にNOです!私は怪物好きなので。

Someone said: "Nana has things seen as problematic now and a cultural gap." An attitude that seems present now in reading books. Sad. Fiction has never complied to a moral or cultural standard. It's only 'standard' is a creative goal, whether creation of a character or a story, moving or disturbing.

This is why their fight against piracy is disingenuous in my eyes.

They can't keep crying about piracy when they are fighting for poor quality translations to hit the international market.

They already have a poor accessibility issue with manga entering international markets, this doesn't help.
As the threat of AI translations and subtitles keeps rising, at some point we need to have the conversation about how the push for these are coming more from JP producers and publishers rather than western ones because the reality is Japan generally doesn't care that much about localization quality

Man...this is all a nightmare. I never stopped just using fansubs and their uploads from nyaa, but i know a lot of people these days dont know how to torrent or find quality translation groups. :/ but this shows the major problem with a company lile crunchyroll having such a huge monopoly on anime

クィアの物語を一般誌で売るのはかなり大変だと思います。分厚い壁が何枚もあり、この作品がアニメ化までしてもらえたのは奇跡的です。色んな人の大変な尽力と、マイノリティの物語だからといって低く見積ったり限界を決めたりせずに応援してくれた読者さんたちのおかげだと思います。

なんかブルースカイで語るのがこういうことばかりで恥ずかしいですが。

Attack on Titan poses the question if death can be reparation for one's crime. Can be, but will it serve justice? Will it be sufficient? Commensurate? It's dependent on the crime's gravity, not only the act itself but also its consequences. The series ironically betrays that death is not reparation.
Attack on Titan's tragedy is anchored on specific offenses that violate what can be humanly handled and naturally allowed. They're the driving force of the story's dilemma and pain, and Eren Jaeger's fall. It calls into question what can be borne and committed by humans before the collective breaks.

Still, JJK is a traditional series. Its protagonist, Itadori Yuji, the series's heart, embodies strength and kindness. A balance of toughness and gentility, he has both qualities needed to fend off evil and care for the vulnerable. That he ultimately survives is an affirmation of JJK's moral ground.
Probably needless to say that Gojo's death is unsurprising, even predicated from the start. Anything 'strongest' must break. In fact, it's a law of nature. Traditional. So, his death is the traditional outcome. Its execution and pacing may be the issue, but these are also characteristic of Gege.
Gege seems to be frequently breaking out of the linear narrative, disrupting a plotline by breaking expectations, disturbing linear logic and causality, and leaving open, unfilled parts of this plotline. He invents a new thing, adding and adding then interrupting. JJK's ending then is unsurprising.

JJK's writing doesn't comply with traditional narrative. Instead, it's inclined to the segmented kind, more fitting an episodic structure or shorter arcs (culling games arc is long but composed of various battles). Unpredictable and erratic, it disturbs linear development and inclines to the absurd.
