and a big thanks to mappa for all of this! you really sent off the series in the absolute best way possible and none of us could be more grateful for you dedication and hard work. Some of those aot scenes look straight up made in real life. thanks a lot mappa!
Time to play a game called-

Am I gay? Or did I just look at Mikasa for too long?
Anime onlys are going to get the shock of a lifetime in this next episode.

I like watching y’all try to predict what’s gonna happen.

MAJOR ATTACK ON TITAN ANIME + MANGA SPOILERS
mikasa:
due to the twists and turns that attack on titan provides, mikasa’s character arc is largely overlooked. “ereh” is one of the first things people think of when “mikasa” is brought up. but obviously, she is more than someone in love with that freedom obsessed conflicted idk i can go on and on guy.
mikasa represents pride, armin represents hope, eren represents freedom. i wrote about freedom before (i linked it at the bottom of this post), but what is pride? it is to feel a sense of satisfaction with themself.
mikasa is someone who values the relationships she has built throughout her life. in a world filled with disappointment and is stuck in a cycle of hate, mikasa ackerman is the ray of sunshine. nothing is stable; from households to government, to history, but to believe in the relationships between people is the only thing worth holding onto.
some may belittle her by saying she is simply like that because of her ackerman name. but can you do what she has done? can you continue to believe in someone who has disappointed you plenty?
mikasa is the beauty in this cruel world she was born in. i guess some people don’t understand that she was one of the first characters to be developed. she learned to live without eren in chapter 7.
“If I can't, then I'll just die. But if I win I live. Unless I fight, I cannot win” is the mentality of this character. she saved gabi, the person who killed one of her closest friends, being able to look beyond hatred, something the world cannot seem to let go of.
in the end, mikasa values her friends. she free of ymir’s curse never bound to the chains of revenge ymir embedded onto eren. she fights against the inevitable results of that revenge.
“i am strong!!” yes. strong-minded. strong-willed.
so how is her character going to come to an end?
mikasa will be the wings of freedom

ATTACK ON TITAN CHAPTER 139 SPOILERS
there are many controversies and “unfinished” feelings that people have about the ending, and i understand the “underwhelming” aspect of the ending of a story with aggressive fights, intense emotion and etc.
some of the concerns i’ve been hearing are eren expressing his feeling towards mikasa, the purpose of historia’s child, people agreeing with eren, and a lot more.
eren:
eren’s actions from chapter 116 up until most of the final moments are of him suppressing his feelings to become the sacrifice in order to gain freedom. that moment reminds the readers that he is still human.
through it all, he is still a nineteen-year-old boy that is in love, yet neglects it because he had a “destiny” to fulfill. he made mikasa and armin kill him, the villain, of the world, in order to implant them with the role of helos. willy tyber’s performance was to explain how it is all a lie. the truth is all fabricated. that moment foreshadows eren’s actions. he pinned himself as the “unbeatable” guy only to be ultimately defeated by the heroes of the island.
he manipulated dina fritz to kill his mother, eradicating the future he wanted to become the future he needed it to be.
the moment eren kissed historia's hand, he saw it all: his death, his friends turning on him, creating a mass genocide, killing eighty percent of the population. through it all, bearing it on his own.
he knew what would become of him, therefore, urges mikasa to find someone new, someone, who can provide for her, something he cannot do.
again, eren exclaiming to armin his love for mikasa is a realistic feeling that provides a humane aspect of eren that had been suppressed for so long. don’t you think that he deserves to be able to a human?
empathy. many are siding with eren after understanding where he was coming from, which is seriously laughable.
yes, eren did that to protect the people he cares about and did it until the end. but are the eighty percent of the human population undeserving of protection then?
did they not have families, friends, and loved ones? did they not deserve this freedom?
who is eren to decide their fates?
i understand that there are a vast amount of people, good and bad, but that doesn’t justify anything. in real life, people say to not think of the people as their governments. is the government’s action towards the island a result of their people? they were consumed with the fabricated lie of the island. the unknown. you can’t really blame them. it's in human nature to fear the unknown. that doesn’t justify their oppressing actions, but understand even you are not perfect, so how do you expect characters in a “realistic” story filled with human nature, to be perfect?
mass genocide, in no way, is justifiable.
historia’s child:
the final arc of historia is quite underwhelming compared to her prior. at first, i agreed. i thought that it is an unnecessary arc that has no purpose. but the more i dwelled on it, i came to a realization. the baby is the symbol of eren’s sacrifice.
the child’s fate was decided before it was even born before it even existed. it was to inherit the beast titan and would, once again, contribute to repeating history, the history of historia’s family. the child would be stripped of the future it could have, being content, being free.
due to the outcome of the story, eren provides the baby with a future of freedom. a future of none of that obligation implemented before. without having to sacrifice their idea of bliss for the greater good.
as underwhelming as that for some, it highlights the fact that eren was able to give the future its freedom, something he wanted to obtain during his lifetime.
the end:
eren is in no way portrayed as good, but we are to understand, understand that there is no definitive good or bad. it is to understand the middle ground. to grasp the idea of multiple and different perspectives, interpretations, and etc.
maybe it is predictable, but it truly encompasses the message the story is trying to convey.
in a cruel world, conflict is inevitable, so we have to fight. in that world, there is still beauty and hope. peace may never be truly achieved, but we try to reach as close as we can.
i get that there are more controversies, but i’m literally typing this in class. so maybe later. ahahah

no thoughts, but my head is plagued with
just the idea of Mikasa being a sensitive thighs girly who's skin would tingle and can't help but shiver at the slightest bit of contact around that area with the cutest blush on her face 😩
pair that with the idea of her having sensitive boobs too? it's over...
thanks @nightfall-kachiniko for that 3am thought- 💀
11:14pm...
imagine them dancing to ariana grande's fantasize, full energy, disgustingly serving cunt flawlessly and making sure your eyes were on them. not caring about how their movements sent a pang of heat and desire shooting down between your legs and the urge to fold them like a lawn chair to rail them until their brain melts....
they just wanted to show you how well they can learn a simple dance and they ate that shit up... 🤷♀️
(if y'all don't know what I'm talking abt just look up the song's TikTok dance-)
MIKASA, PIECK, Annie, Sasha, Hange, Momo, Mina, Mirko(?) + ur faves
Just imagining...
bimbo!Mikasa daydreaming over her S/O's hands.
Flat out drooling at any point she sees their fingers flex oh so expertly just by doing ordinary mundane tasks. Her mind immediately fills with hazy images from the night before with those exact fingers stretching her out and coaxing out release after release.
Or the way that they would wrap around her like she was a dainty little thing... the delicious tightening hold on her neck... the rough tugs of her short raven hair... the tantalizing way her partner gripped her jaw and cooed words of praise for being so good...
🥴🥴🥴
mikasa ackerman as your older sister
I NEED IDEAS FOR AOT BC IM RUNNING OIT OF IDEAS AHAHAHHA please
mikasa best girl time 😌😌 CW: language (bc i curse in literally every single headcanon post), mention of (minor character spoiler) death, argument mentions, light wound/injury mentions, combat.
gn! reader. enjoy :)

we can get an idea of how she’s like as a sibling bc of eren, but i have a few headcanons on how else she’d act as a sister.
you guys wouldn’t have too big of age gap. you guys are probably a year and like a couple months apart.
with mikasa, you get a mom and a sibling in one person. esp since your parents died when you guys were young, and eren’s parents did too.
she makes sure you eat at designated times, and stay hydrated.
if there’s not enough food for both of you, she’d give her food to you 🥺
makes sure you look presentable like wearing your clothes right and your hair isn’t randomly sticking up.
is super observant to your actions to make sure you aren’t hiding something from her (like if you’re feeling sadder than usual, are under the weather, in pain, etc.)
when joining the scouts, she’s super scared to lose you, but doesn’t show it. she just vows to protect you like she did to eren.
even if you do turn out to be strong as HELL she still feels a need to protect you and will do anything to keep you safe.
during training and sparring, she’ll teach you fighting techniques and self defense to help you stay safe.
(if you’re an eremika shipper) you tease her about his crush on her/her crush on him.
she would fight anyone that flirts with/likes you.
you guys are best friends. you tell her everything and vice versa.
teasing her about her scarf and how she never takes it off. you have to make her wash it sometimes.
she loves to spend time with you as siblings when you get days off.
you guys will go to town at a bakery and café and do some teen stuff like gossip and talk about life.
if she trains too hard, you have to pull her away bc she’s an ackerman and she’s stubborn.
if she gets hurt you tend her wounds and take care of her. vice versa.
she expresses her gratitude and love for you when you stay up late together.
if you’re a person that shows physical affection, she likes your surprise hugs throughout the day and always softly smiles at them.
sasha is one of mikasa’s best friends so she’s one of your close/best friends too.
when she isn’t with connie and jean, you guys have your own lil trio.
armin is also one of your closest friends! he’s great company and sm more things. (pst! if you want separate bestie armin hcs go here ;))
i feel like armin might have had a crush on you at some point. but it was only a small phase.
if you ever get hurt she’s on edge the whole time and will take care of you while you heal.
listening to her rants on how annoying jean flirting with her at first was 💀💀
i feel like mikasa has sm shit to talk out of frustration and she’d always talk to you about it. (lowk shit talking together LMAO)
when you guys have your sibling fights, she’d be really aggressive towards anything.
like she punches/kicks harder during training, and more quiet than usual.
but your fights don’t normally last very long so it’s all chill.
it’s safe to say as your sister, she’ll always have your back, and you’ll always have hers :)
