The most complex fictional character I have ever seen. You can hate and feel sad for him at the same time.

5:57

i have black hair like him and i have the same haircut and hairstyle as him

The narrative, your voice and the music made me a bit teary. It's a great analysis. AOT is a moving story and should be appreciated in depth.

Erwin is the best anime character to ever exist

See you later space cowboy.

love the format. But i kinda wish there was a essay for Cowboy bepop

cool video but man you mispronounce so many names. mikasa, shiganshina, porco, paradis

Lets be real, hes the Zuko of AOT, but Im surprised you didnt mention him barely making it and Marcel protecting his bro allowing him in. Thats quite important to his character and developing another persona

levi: is 100% convinced he needs to bring back erwin. floch: tries to convince more. levi: "actually I changed my mind"

This is one of the best Reiner videos I have ever seen even though it is older. Reiner has it all: 10/10 in story and character development. 9.5/10 in looks without the beard and 10/10 with the beard. Never wanted to meet a fictional character so badly as him. ❤😢

I wholeheartedly agree with every single word said in this video🥹

facts!!!

Erwin is like the slightly less moral version of Optimus prime of the aot universe

Those people who think Levi being badass is all there is to him are dead wrong.

I love how even when he lost two fingers and was still in bad condition he still was overpowered.

“Rine-ah”

It makes now I have reached the end, hope you are well.

Good video why don't you upload often?

Can't thank Isayama enough for creating The legendary Levi Ackerman❤

SAO's biggest crime. Was not giving Klien enough screen time.

Well said, brother. Levi is only so short because he was starved as a child. Otherwise, I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up as a heroic 6'2".

Great video best character

Wow, you’ve opened my eyes up to a completely new perspective with the bit about how Armin still had many different levels of his dream he still would need loads of time to attain, even if he reached the sea. Phenomenal analysis!!

Thanks for this excellent and fresh analysis. Fun watch!

Existential dread flowed through out my body as i watched the final episodes. This show is perfect, and half of it is marinated by Erwin.

Erwin is the best <3

He's not a devil! He's a general at war. Don't you dare disrespect him like that. Devils care only about themselves and the chaos they bring while true generals make hard decisions for the sake of their people

my favorite moment in the whole show is when he smacks the serum away and pretty much says "save the boy"

i love him so much

Really well put. Not many people can put it into words the way you did.

He's a classic ENTJ. "ENTJ (Commander) is a personality type with the Extraverted, Intuitive, Thinking, and Judging traits. They are decisive people who love momentum and accomplishment. They gather information to construct their creative visions but rarely hesitate for long before acting on them. People with the ENTJ personality type (Commanders) are natural-born leaders. Embodying the gifts of charisma and confidence, ENTJs project authority in a way that draws crowds together behind a common goal. However, these personalities are also characterized by an often ruthless level of rationality, using their drive, determination, and sharp mind to achieve whatever objectives they’ve set for themselves. Their intensity might sometimes rub people the wrong way, but ultimately, ENTJs take pride in both their work ethic and their impressive level of self-discipline."

This makes me want to rewatch aot again

I love Levi. He makes the best choice for him, the one he can bare to carry with him over the other options. Yet, every action he takes is still in servitude to humanity. He gives all of himself over to the cause, he feels so much emotion, and yet very little of it is shown in his facial expressions. He is a child of trauma, a teenager of grooming and trafficking, a man in service to the military, and in the end of the story he has given everything he has until there is very little of him left and every sense including physical...the world finds relative peace...and he is broken for it. He was abused, used as a tool for the sake of humanity, and expected to be a person at the end of it all. At his peak, his limitations infuriated him and caused him great depression...can you imagine how it all must feel now that he can no longer walk, can no longer see the world the same, can no longer hold, or write or do anything as he once did? Even his physical beauty, his face, tarnised by scars. The fight is over, what becomes of him now?

I started watching this video absolutely months ago, but I stopped before you went into chapter 139 because I didn't want to see any spoilers before the anime ending came out. I'm now caught up in both the anime and the manga, and I'm so glad I came back to finish watching your analysis. I think you either get Levi better than any other video essayist I've seen do a character analysis on him, or you're better at expressing your thoughts and feelings towards him than anyone else. We DEFINITELY watched the same anime! Thank you so much for making this.

As an extreme berserk fan, I actually agree. He’s up there with berserk cast.

Erwin is Isayama’s best character! Period!

9:47 no, Daisuke Ono can not be matched or even compared to a regular mortal,what you did there must be consider blasfemy

Expeditions on average are every 20 months, not every month. But they probably didn't start until the first king died, so that would be every 1,5 years.

Man, you just made me cry again

Man I just found this channel and I’m kinda bummed out there’s only a handful of videos… I appreciate your work and I hope you return one day:)🤍

Bitches really saw that 5,3 nigga and said he can get it💀

Levi to the snail convinced to fight the salt and win: “Dedicate your slimy heart and have no regrets.” Snail: *bravely and slowly goes after the pile of salt* MY SNAIL RAGE!! MY SNAIL SCREAM!! MY SNAIL CHARGE!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌

Now whilst rewatching i got a idea, what if.. Levi took Zeke and fed him to Erwin? THE DEVIL beast titan, Erwin smith.

beautiful video

Man Erwin was the realest Fr Fr stood on buidness

Beautiful analysis!!!

Reiner is my top 3 favorite characters ever brainwashed and you have no clue what Reiner has already been through even before he killed Marco when marcel saved his life reiners while personality changes

I think Erwin's goal of saving humanity was just something that he developed unconsciously to justify his actions. It went hand in hand with learning the truth. To learn the truth you need to help humanity and sacrifice lives, but it's not his real goal, it's just a sad delusion he created so that he can look in the mirror and eyes of his comrades. When it came down to choosing humanity vs the truth, he realised that he was deluding himself and what he actually wants is to go to the damn basement. Confesses to Levi that everything he did was because of that basement. He would've fucked up everything in order to find out the truth he and his father always seeked, but his dead comrades caught up to his remorse. He killed so many people for a fucking basement is why he needed that justification, and now that he can't have both, it's only the souls of his dead comrades who made him choose humanity. He was a devil all along, sacrificing people for a selfish goal. But in the end, his remorse and inner humanity turned him into a hero. Which is incredibly weird and beautiful. He went from one side of the spectrum to the other in a matter of minutes. You are not appreciating Erwin's true character in my opinion and neglect the most important parts which made him special to any other leader and character. He is far more complicated than you portray him in my opinion.
