Am I the only one who ******** hates Armin? I dislike everything about his character.
U WOT M8
Armin is my favorite character, tied only with Ymir and Bertl. I don't know if you've read the manga but he's a ******** badass in it. The anime doesn't do him justice. He really is the true lionheart of the series. Back off, Annie, you've got competition.
But seriously, don't widdle him down into the smart, weak, pathetic trope that many people mistake him for. He's much more than that. He's a manipulative, limitless scumbag who seems nice but really is slowly going batshit insane as each chapter is released. And I love him for it because I can relate to that on so many levels. In the chapter before the most recent one, even Mikasa says to him, "I don't remember raising you like that." when he talks about how good of an idea he believes genocide would be to turn the public against the king. I won't go into too much because spoiler
Arlert, but yeah.
And he and Eren are due to have a bromance fallout, which pains every inch of my body but it's bound to happen. Eren just isn't determined anymore. He's lost the starlight, the fire in his eyes, and his morals are clashing with Armin's--or his lack thereof.
