YOU SAY MY POSTS ARE THE RAVINGS OF THE DUMBEST PERSON ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH BUT YOU YOURSELF ARE READING THEM. CURIOUS!

The two episodes I saw looked like the anxieties of a Tokyoite

Humanity is islanded off in a dollop of city, beset on all sides by giant lumbering white people that can't stop eating

It's like a slightly racist Japanese man doodled out his id

That concept goes away a lot quicker than you would think. It’s more about what a military society does to people and how hosed up they tend to be. You get the heroes or protagonists slowly becoming harsher and cruel while also seeing what the Nazi analogues have done to their society with the hatred bred by their very harsh class system. It’s rather neat.

No plus the titans hiding among them is probably propaganda used by the Nazi analogue. They can’t actually transform on their own and are used as a military resource by the Nazi analogue. It’s actually the opposite of fash really.

The main character is a person who can become a titan at will, its not propaganda in universe that anyone could be a titan in disguise, the special titans that bring down the walls are traitors hidden inside Germany/Japan and the titans are literally just wasteful and evil in their natural form

Also the only thing keeping them out are big beautiful walls, just the best walls

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I watched some of the early episodes, if the creator is a far right Japanese nationalist, then why are all the people and architecture essentially European. I mean I'm sure they love eating noodles at noodle stands and other conspicuously Japanese things, but it still doesn't make much sense
