#Aot The idea that Eren's been this way since birth is so interesting to me especially considering that the story drives in the significance of how your upbringing shapes who you are. Grisha, Zeke, Reiner, literally every character has been shaped by their environment

Berserk is not above criticism for excessive violence against women. But to say its depiction of SA is fetishistic is misguided. I think this comes from a misunderstanding of what a “bad” SA survivor and may look like so I’ll explain that and how Berserk tied into it for me

I like how Kagura's Yato mode isn't some crutch she uses throughout the series to defeat powerful enemies, it was truly a moment of weakness for her that she never let overtake her again Same for Kamui, it isn't used overpower his enemies- it's him at his lowest, he doesn't win

and AoT goes the full length to show how things outside of your control influences who you are. Yet, when it comes to Eren, he's been this way since he was born. Interesting statement by Isayama on the topic of nature vs. nurture. I think he believes there are just some qualities
