I don't trust people who put any other female character (with mikasa being the exception) above annie leonhart.
girl was legendary, the female titan arc was one of the best arcs in the history of the animes
there's no "feminine and masculine" during a war
she's depicted being very feminine and is even self conscious of that
and she still looks very feminine to me for someone that is constantly fighting
i think mikasa is one of the worst cases of this. yes, she wears skirts, dresses and likes them but she’s consistently appeared like someones masc gf for most of the manga and even outside of that is not as traditionally feminine and yet so much eremika art presents her like so
isayama is aware of some disrespectful comments towards him and his work and as a gentle person he felt the need to apologize to these people
that's not the same thing as hating his own work.
isayama's eren is so much better than that trash eren that the fandom describes
mega chad just wants his friends and his girlfriend to live in peace
wants a family and to live in peace with his beloved (and not become a corny ass sociopath)
has actually deep and complex feelings
people misunderstood this scene so easily.
eren only said that bc he didn't want mikasa to join the yeagerists in any way. the yeagerists was expendable to him (*coughs* floch) so no way he would let mikasa be that too. he wanted mikasa to hate him to prepare her for THAT moment
