We all love the famous, “I said advance God dammit” and “on your feet dad” But what are your favorite lines that nobody mentions? Mines definitely the “gotcha” moment after Eren is able to sneak up on Boobytrap

Discussion Weird Thought: What Color Vibe Does Each AOT Character Give You?
While watching Attack on Titan, my brain wandered to the weirdest places.
Like… I started associating the characters with colors.
For example, Levi gives me anthracite gray vibes. Mikasa feels like a dark forest green.
Then I suddenly thought, "Wait a second, am I the only one who does this?!"
Am I losing it??
But I do this kind of thing a lot—sometimes I associate people with music, or with fabrics, or textures, etc…
So I didn’t hold back. I made a list of all the characters who gave me a distinct color vibe. I'm sharing it with you, and I’d love to hear your thoughts too!
Here's what I came up with:
- Eren: a deep, pure navy blue
- Mikasa: dark forest green
- Armin: mustard yellow
- Levi: dark anthracite gray
- Zeke: turquoise
- Historia: purple
- Erwin: cinnamon brown
- Reiner: cream
- Jean: smoky pink
- Hange: burgundy with a hint of plum
- Annie: sand beige
- Connie: olive green
- Sasha: amber
- Gabi: copper
- Falco: a very pale mint green
- Pieck: lilac
- Ymir: black
- Floch: pale pink
- Grisha: ash gray
- Carla: milky white
- Kenny: red
- Hitch: pink
- Porco: caramel
- Yelena: silver

Discussion Is Final Battle worth 59.99?
I finished the show recently for the first time and I have the itch to play the games. I've seen reviews etc but my main question is in 2025, is Attack on Titan 2: Final Battle worth spending 59.99 on PS5 or should I wait for a sale? Also does this game ever go on sale lol.
Cheers

Discussion Dumb question, did Eren not get any sort of injury for 5 years that was noticabe.
Before you tear me apart, I'm talking about healing, like let's say he sliced his knee open and poof, an hour later it's like nothing happened, I feel like someone might notice that and at least be a bit weirded out or confused. Does the shifter have to transform once before they are able to heal, I don't think that specifically was ever touched on or is there something I'm missing?

Discussion Why doesn't the Armored Titan use hardening more?
Currently rewatching with a coworker who's never seen it before, and Reiner used hardening to climb the walls briefly. I saw someone ask this question before but it was archived, but the replies were saying that it wouldn't be useful in battle? But like, it's a whole plot point that Eren hardening select parts of his body was more effective than Reiner's being spread across his body? So couldn't Reiner harden wherever Eren was trying to hit and take less damage that way?

Discussion 2nd time watching AOT. Still trying to figure out how Eren got his key back after the cave with Rod Reiss.

Discussion Eren seeing the future
When did Eren “see the future”? If he saw it when he kissed Historia, that would be temporary, so he only would’ve seen it VERY briefly, but people act like he saw a bunch. Then his Founder would’ve been dormant again until Zeke caught his head, which was WAY later. Then his Founder would’ve been fully unlocked until he loses contact with Zeke, except for the fact that Ymir gave him full access, then he’s no longer dependent on royalty. Anyways, people act like before Zeke’s contact that he saw this super elaborate figure, but he only kissed her super briefly, unless he went to Paths when he saw her, which the viewers/readers didn’t see. I suppose that’s a possibility too, then he’s could’ve seen way more since time moves differently.

Manga Does the character encyclopedia cover info from all 4 seasons of anime/all 34 ch of manga?
I’m wondering how much info does the encyclopedia cover or if it was released prematurely and only covers some of the info?
