#eren is the father

[kittenfangirl20]

Why it was so easy for me to love Eren Jaeger, he has a lot in common with Prequel Era Anakin Skywalker. A defining moment in their life deals with the loss of their mother which causes them to lash out at the beings responsible for the death of their mother. Both strive for freedom and have powers that can be seen as both a blessing and a curse, Anakin being the Chosen One and Eren bearing the Founding Titan. Both join a group that pledged to protect people, but ultimately turns against them. Both are willing to kill many people in order to protect those dearest to them. Also since I ship Erehisu, my favorite ship for them involves falling in love with a young woman who had to hide the fact that she was royalty.

When they both go down a dark path, they transform into something that looks both terrifying and inhuman

In which I give the longest explanation of my opinions on Eremika and why I don't like it.

If you see my other AoT post, I likely give the impression of being a hardcore eremika anti; and while I'm not clearly not a fan of the ship I also don't believe that it just came out of nowhere, or was completely unexpected; like some eremika antis seem to think. Seasons 1-3 I honestly expected an eremika ending. Season 3 I had some thoughts that maybe we were getting a erehisu instead, but ultimately I assumed either an eremika or a no-pairing ending even by the end of season 3.

This is not because I thought the ship was built up well or had really good moments pointing towards a mutual romance/love. There are some moments where Eren shows some level of care or affection towards Mikasa; but, to me, it doesn't come off like he's in love with her. It can be interpreted that way, but I felt it was more like showing general platonic care and that those more romantic feeling could be built up or in some cases like his feelings were moving in that direction. The reason I assumed it was the most likely end game ship if there was to be a ship is because of other cannon ships where one character is in love, often obsessively so with the other and the other is either oblivious, doesn't really care, or actively seems to dislike them until the end of the series when suddenly they're also in love. ie; Sakura and Sasuke, Hinata and Naruto, Aang and Katara. Eren and Mikasa dynamic reminded me of these, especially Sakura and Sasuke.

My main issues with the eremika ship are: 1. how it compares to erehisu; Eren and Mikasa do have deep emotional moment together but Eren and Historia have deep emotional moment because of each other. That is, Eren's emotional moment with Mikasa would be just as emotional even if she wasn't there, where as Historia is integral to the moments she has with Eren. In season 4 the erehisu ship is really build up by how desperate Eren is to protect Historia, how he angrily jumps to her defense, how he's shown visiting her at the farm, how he smiles at her and no one else. Even other characters notice this; in season 3 Jean tells Eren he should stop holding hands with Historia all the time (I'm aware that the hand holding was because they were trying to get more memories/activate the founding titan, but it means that Eren and Historia had a lot of confirmed off screen time together), and in season 4 Hange looks at Eren smiling at Historia and then later tells Eren that She thought He would never sacrifice Historia; strongly indicating an assumption of a deeper level of care. All in all I think erehisu had better scenes to building a relationship of mutual care and understanding and also better scenes showing that Eren cares about Historia in a way that isn't shown with anyone else (save maybe Armin) This means that when we end up with eremika now it feels a little cheap or just off. If we got more moments showing a deeper level of care and understand between Eren and Mikasa or if The moments between Eren and Historia, and Erens reactions to Historia didn't have so much weight then an eremika ending would make more sense.

reason number 2: What it does to Mikasas character; Mikasa's love for Eren seems born out of an obsession that comes from losing her parent in a violent murder/kidnapping and then being saved by him. This is then compounded when Eren's mom dies since she was like an adoptive mother to Mikasa. She's a traumatized young girl who never actually deals with her trauma and instead hyperfixates on Eren. Mikasa entire character arc is her chasing after Eren like a neglected dog until that one scene where for like 5 minutes she finally starts to see Eren for the violent psychopath he actually is and questions what she had seen in him; but never mind that because she's back to being so obsessively in love with him that even after he dies she spends that rest of her life visiting his grave with her (probably husband and kids) and also never takes off that scarf.

reason number 3: Mikasa doesn't understand Eren. People argue that Mikasa understood Eren in a different ways, that she understood certain parts of him, but that's literally just admitting that there's clearly parts of Eren she doesn't understand. Actually, I'd argue that as its depicted Mikasa doesn't seem to understand Eren on a fundamental level. Examples: When he failed at the initial ODM gear test she told him to give up being a soldier and then went on to say that he needn't drop out alone, that she would be following him; when he passed the ODM gear test she says that he's relieved that he wont be separated from her. She assumes that the reason he'd be upset about failing to make it as a soldier is related specifically to her and not wanting to be apart from her; When Connie is angry about Eren laughing after Sasha's death he asks Mikasa why he would do that and she can't answer; despite the fact that she's witnessed him laughing in an emotional and traumatic situation before and should have been able to understand that he does it as a coping mechanism. She'd also completely blind to his obvious anti-social personality disorder (psychopathy), though to be fair so is everyone else including most Eren stans. (like, I love Eren, I stan Eren but he is like text book certifiably ASPD psychopathic)

I love how hannes is a sort of father figure to Eren, Mikasa, and Armin… like he feels like they’re his responsibility and tries to look for them whenever he can

I jsut got the where Reiner and Berholt took Eren and Ymir, and I am rlly terrified as to what’s gonna happen and where the beast titan went. But hannes patting armins head and asking if he’d eaten jsut made my heart melt lol

Levi, holding a bowl of porridge: Here, you missed breakfast because of the experiments.

Eren: Thanks, dad.

Levi: . . .

Eren: . . .

Eren: Oh sh- I'm so sorry, I wasn't-

Hange: Does that mean I get to be your mom?!

Levi: Shut the fuck up, shitty glasses, I'm a single father of ten kids have some consideration on my hearing.

[tadaxii-i]

"babe what are you doing tonight?" Oh nothing just crying myself to sleep thinking about Levi and Eren apologizing to each other and hugging in the afterlife.

*Historia pretending to be Krista*

Everyone in the 104th Squad: She is a goddess.

Reiner: She will be my wife one day.

Eren:…………………………………….

*Historia acts like herself*

Eren: She is the worst the girl in the world and I love her because of that, I will marry her and slaughter our enemies in order to ensure the safety of her and our children.

Eren should cover both his beefy arms in tattoos tbh

you are so right, why stop at the forearms?? he should have full sleeves, plus a huge back piece and something on his chest (over his heart) 😍😍

[drivemysoul]

so you mean to tell me that eren jaeger looked exactly like his mom while sporting That haircut for three seasons… then disappeared and came back with some scraggly facial hair, an adam’s apple, a slightly receding hairline and suddenly looking more like his father?

[sassynobody]

I have a blond brother

My mother died in front of me

She had the anime dead mom hair style

My father is the anti-hero-villain without being good and 50% antagonist not human anymore

He kind of gave me his ability and disappeared

WWII is literally half of the plot

I lost a leg while being reckless then an arm to help a blond cinnamonroll but it made me stronger

My superior is a raven haired man highly worshipped by fangirls and who can kill you in a snap of finger

Am I talking about Edward Elric or Eren Jeager you don't know
