This warms my heart. After all the backlash and negativity he got, I'm glad he met many appreciative fans and knows what an amazing story he created for us.
فعلاً
I think criticism is valid for any form of art, but the bullying and intense ad hominem against Isayama is uncalled for.
Probably the same people who threaten the MAPPA animators just for doing their job. At the end of the day any opinions you have on the work itself is valid, but don’t go threatening and abusing the people behind it like an entitled brat.
aot is ass though
@@zSion cope
I mean, the final was trash for me, but everything else was really a roller coaster of emotions. So i would be really grateful to get to see him in person.
I am a fan who got to meet Isayama Sensei at Anime NYC. He is truly so kind and the greatest artist ever in my opinion. His work is truly one of a kind. Thank you so much Isayama :)
he's a goat for AOT but miura/oda/asano/inoue/urasawa are the untouchables imo
@@jpetrullo6890 nobody asking for comparison, blud
@@jpetrullo6890they are giants and amazing authors.
But Isayama has written a much more complex story and hard hitting story than any of them.
@@jpetrullo6890 don't fool ur self bruv .
@@prashil3k594 It's a Shonen, how complex can it be once you compared AoT with Berserk or Vagabond or Vinland Saga or Monster? 👻
I think I would cry if I met this man in person.
I cried just watching this. ;-;
Me too dude. Didn't realize how much his work meant to me until that young lady in the scout uniform said it to Isayama.
Couldnt agree more. He is the closest person for us to express how we love the characters of the series. For me, its Ymir and Hange😢
Same. His story changed my life forever.
Is that Rhaegar? Your pfp
It's so nice to see fans respecting the author. Isayama deserved such fans.
It still hurts how Japan forced him to apologize and change his entire ending after some intense bullying.....
@@thechugg4372 Japanese people would never do such thing... they are nice people
@@Lara-mo5oy looks can be deceiving.
@@DrWolf-jl4po indeed
GOATed author. Deserves a better fanbase.
what do u mean by "better" fanbase....are his fanbase bad
@@Bohara_123 bad? it's a delicate statement. People who insult the author make some childish drama about the end of the manga and lots and lots of others. yeah, it's that fandom in a nutshell. Isayama deserved better Not for these freaks. Here, these fans are very nice and polite, but on the Internet, unfortunately, there is a lot of the latter kind
@@Emilia-em5cz ohh...i didn't knew about that ...Thank you for explaining..
@@Bohara_123 It is absolutely horrendous. It's a stretch to even call them "fans"
@@Bohara_123 some overpraised his works, some overhated his works, they're both extremely toxic. It's the fate of being popular series, better avoid interacting with them all.
Wow, the girl’s comment about Mikasa’s character and Isayama’s answer were so nice. A lot of people has said it before, his characterization of women in SnK was a breath of fresh air. We have Mikasa who’s physically strong but quiet and introvert, Annie is also strong but more with a don’t care attitude, cute Historia who’s actually repressing her real self, tough Ymir who’s also selfless, and fun Sasha who used to be insecure about her background. It’s impossible to be perfect of course, but as woman myself, I feel like he did a great job overall.
I didn't realize just how well he wrote the female characters until I started watching more anime, jesus, the trash that's out there lol
@@coldstuff9784 yeah and imagine who really trash on Aot, they seriously act like a story like Aot is so common in today's media Man they don't realize Aot is a story you find once in decade or even long!! Never seen such a story who can manage a pacing like that even after the basement reveal and yet makes goated plot twists afterwards!!
there are also Hange who is smart but had insecurities being leader because she is a researcher to the blood but in the end she became the real leader, the tsundere Hitch, the smart but unique Pieck, Kaya and Gabi with great character developments, and so on.
Even though I believe most female characters are written well, at the end of the anime, they were abandoned. I genuinely thought it was one of the greatest writing of the century but the last chapters and the conclusion changed everything. Mikasa has never been a well-written character, and she never will be. She had zero character development throughout the series. She was just an obedient weapon who yelled Ereh every second. (like Ymir Fritz.) Most female characters are either dead, frozen, or turned into a baby machines.
@@HomoAlone1 did you read the manga or only watch the anime? Mikasa had chara development. If you read ch 50, you will understand. Before ch 50, Mikasa relationship with Eren was toxic. She was somehow like Yandere who had zero trust to Eren, act like his mom, protected him but in a way that didn't give Eren space to built his own confidence. After ch 50, Mikasa looked more compose and she started to trust Eren. She was still care but in different manner. Like how she left Eren and Armin who fought Bert while she and the others fought Reiner. She was worried but put trust in them. Her chara development was challenged again after Eren left her until final episode.
The other characters also had chara developments, including Annie who opened up more, even to Hitch. And chara development also could be in regression type like Historia who was back to the state of being obedience like puppet queen due to pressure she received. Isayama draw his characters in varied type of chara developments, because like real people, there are those who became good from bad, and those who became bad from good.
Personally, Sasha is the only character that i think was wasted by Isayama. It's such a pity that he gave her post mortem chara development through her parents, kaya, nicolo, and gabi, when he could give her own chara development when she was still alive.
I was one of the people that got the chance to get their manga signed. It was so incredibly amazing. He sketched Levi for me so quickly (it had to be less than a minute), he apologized for it being messy (I told him it was perfect) and then he signed the manga page of my choosing and added a chibi Mikasa to it. I still can't believe how lucky I was. I'm even more surprised to see that I made it into the video, though you can't see my face. 🤣
Hi. Thank you for sharing your experience. Where can I watch the video?
That dope happy for you
BRO UR SO LUCKY
WHERE DID U MEET HIM AND WHEN
@@afraaahmed5958 I met him at Animenyc in November 2022.
I wish I could've gone and told him how much aot has meant to me over the years. 😔
disgusting
@@atifrafique3764 stfu
@@atifrafique3764 what's your problem bro?
It was a double edged sword meeting American fans. I'm glad he met the cool and well behaved side. We Americans can be the most obnoxious and unappreciative people on earth. Thank GOODNESS he ran into the nice, humble, and intelligent people.
Yea most Americans are idiots
I was afraid for his safety when I learned he was gonna visit America and meet fans like seriously, i really hoped he got protection there. Glad the people he met was good tho.
you sound very self-center.
This is such an asinine take. The vast majority of people in the U.S. and everywhere else are rather nice people.
@@Arcticos0 Titanfolk redditors when they gather up for the next meeting:
I'm really glad that they said to him that about the ending. I don't care how many likes it or not (I like it, to me was fitting), but imagine how it feels for the author...A book/film/manga etc., like a child to the creator.
And I don't speaking about normal negative or positive feedbacks but the crazy kind feedbacks. So, I'm happy he heard it!🙂
I like it too. I prefer he giving the story the ending he wanted, rather than him making fanservice to a bunch of toxic ignorant fans.
They don't even know what a bad ending is. As a fan of Game of thrones, I can tell you what a bad ending is. 😒😒
@@Emy-fv5ny absolutely agree.Aot His story so if he making fanservice rather than do his wish and his way that was really disappointed to me. I hope you'll understand what I tried to write, it's not my native language.☺️ And I admit that never saw Got but heard of the terrible ending.
@@Emy-fv5ny Fans did not want “fan service”. They actually wanted a good ending. The one we got, regardless of how great Isayama is as an author, was ass. All you’re doing is deflecting valid criticism. We know what a bad ending is, I’ve read AOT and seen GOT.
There was no way the ending was fitting if you thought about it for more than 5 seconds.
@@TheSupaman98 🙄🙄🙄🙄 Get over it...If you don't like it, deal with that, you don't have to bother the ppl who did like the ending,
Hats off to Hajime Isayama for creating Attack on Titan and those fans are so lucky..
Omg this is so wholesome 💞 those fans are so lucky 🥺
これは凄いファンサービスですよね。
本人に漫画に絵を書いてもらえるなんてかなり貴重でしょ😭
Final season part 3 part 1 was fire
Ikr
i cried sm 😭😭
Just like Hange:)))
NOOO
@@groupraitodigital9784 foul
It's been so long since the manga ended and I'm still pissed at the "fans" who resorted to giving him death threats etc just because they didn't like how SnK ended. I mean, I too wasn't quite satisfied with a few things, but it doesn't change the fact that SnK is one of the best fictions ever and he's a goddamn genius for even coming up with the idea, no matter what the ending is. I'm glad they're doing all these fanmeets and stuff to show him he still has tons of fans out there who appreciate his work.
This is a take I absolutely agree with. You are calling out the toxic and unacceptable behaviour of people threatening Isayama without dismissing the fair and legitimate criticism of the ending, while still acknowledging that overall AOT is still an amazing and goated series.
those "fans" you talk about are literally like 0.01% of people that saw the ending tbh. the rare fish that end up on land are always the loudest, but don't forget that most fish keep quiet in the water
It is no accident that most of my favorite manga series are all published by Kodansha. Hats off to Isayama sensei and the unsung hero who saw his potential.
諫山先生、進撃の巨人という作品を生み出してくれて本当にありがとう
I also want to meet Hajime Isayama I want to tell my whole experience of Attack on Titan series to Hajime Isayama and Attack on Titan series always gives me goosebumps when everytime I re-watch it and I couldn't get over it 👀
I hope he gets time to enjoy his success. Travel, take time off to be with family… he deserves it for sure.
All these people, they're so lucky omg!! I'm crying looking at this, so cool!!!
一人ひとりに絵を描いてあげるなんてすごすぎる!
I'm jealous of them !
Super jealous
Attack on Titan is the best work I have ever encountered in my life and will remain the best🥹so fortunate to be born in the same era as Isayama Sensei’s
This comment is what should everybody listen. Just appreciate that we are still alive to experience from chapter 1 to chapter 139 and the anime that Isayama exec directed until it's finished.
@@ayyget ❤️❤️😌
I’m begging you,please come to the UK,especially London. THIS man is someone all lovers of manga should definitely meet
Imagine actually greeting your celebrity like this instead of ruthlessly bursting out of excitement.
Super cool how they chose only a handful of people and make the signing very personal and less taxing on the author. Really great how many of them prepared beforehand what they'd want to convey to the author. Great event!
So much respect for isayama such a legend!! 🐐
Keep in mind this KING thought his stories were trash. Hope he is able to see how his art has impacted people.
If only he had an idea of how big of an impact he made in all of our lives with his story........ nothing can change my love for AoT even the ending
he is the Shakespeare of animé
I’m so jealous of everyone who got to meet isayama! 😢❤ Huge respect to him. I can’t explain how much I enjoyed and love AOT.
会ったら泣き崩れるだろうな。
I'm glad they told him the ending was good. Also I was happy it ended because after 2017 I noticed the fandom became super toxic, hateful and disrespectful.
What a crazy and amazing story came out of this man's head Attack on Titan is a wonderful piece of manga.
The amount of time and effort he puts into drawing the chars and signatures for his fans are unbelievable.
He's very kind omg!!🥺
This was wholesome, so jealous! Wish I could have gone 💜
He’s so wholesome ❤
If he came here just to sign a fast autograph for us at a comic con type of show. The line would stretch from here to kingdomcome.. I wonder if he knows what a superstar he is!!
it's heartwarming. im happy for those lucky fans
He got such a kind look,😢I want him to know that he has made such an awesome story.I loved it so much so don't feel bad for those toxic people,just keep moving forward.
How lucky are they!! He's the gre a test author writer Manga artist of all time.. in my opinion,,this is an incredible story. The best story ever!! He's the superstar of all authors! I wish I can meet him!!
could've been. ending ruined his credibility. outlook is terrible for the series after what he did
@@bigchungus7098 Cope harder
@@wadaahal-rifai8165 your response is a cope. Keep copin pal
いいな〜本当に羨ましい〜！！
Thank u isayama sense 🙏🙏🙏🙏 i know the ending make me sad but thank u sense🙌🤧
I'm glad I got to see him in person i got front row seats for the panel, too bad I couldn't win a ticket for his autograph.
im so happy for !!!! when was this and how ??? where??
i wish this were longer
This is so wholesome on a spiritual level. Isayama-sensei 🐐🐐🐐
I’d love to meet him one day- what an inspiring man and talented artist/story teller.
His writing is beyond understanding. I still can't believe one mere human can make story like AOT.
Isayama, you are god d*mn GREAT!
Endingwas good, it resolved the timeloop.
Isayama is the best person in this world!!!
I love Hajime Isayama best Aot mange ever
Wish I got to meet him but it was dope attending the panel though
Perhaps the greatest Mangaka of this generation
he should be proud of creating a story that brought people together, my dream is to work on a creative project that will reach people
What that one girl said about his vision of humanity was incredibly kind
Also, yay Misaki (Jikei) makes an appearance🎉
These manga artists are such a blessing. Can't imagine you'd be in charge of drawing everything, character designs and background...not to mention the story itself! Respect! Though big shot manga are outsourcing the drawings, but still that's a lot of work!
Thank you Isayama-sama for such wonderful story! No matter what other people say , AOT is one of the best anime /manga in the world 💖
Those who are still criticizing the ending should understand that reality is not as ideal as they would like it to be. And you should not only criticize, you should come up with a counterproposal. Think of an ending that will satisfy the majority, not just you. In the end, it will be disliked by many and the same thing will happen.
one of the goated manga artists of all time ❤️❤️
I wish I was there to meet him. What a legend.
He deserves the world
They're so lucky 😢
He is so shy♥
mark my words if iseyama had taken his writing talent to the west he would have won accolades by now for sure. Iseyama thanks a lot for AOT !
Now He is already famous , AOT is already awesome bro
This comment is what should everybody listen. Just appreciate that we are still alive to experience from chapter 1 to chapter 139 and the anime that Isayama exec directed until it's finished.
I want more video of isayama
Hajime Isayama is such a nice guy. I think he deserves more recognition for his work as a professional AND writer. These artists deserves a better place and a place for them to talk about their work, art and their creative process.
I am aware about his work. I watched Attack on Titan because David Mercury, the singer of Queen, made a cameo there. I laughed way too hard seeing some titans with recognizable faces. :3
Hajime must continue the universe of Attack on Titan after the conclusion made by MAPPA. This is SUCH a good story that needs more chapters. He has a life work right there. :D
What I’d do to meet him and tell him how much I love Attack on Titan
What a cute Mikasa
The GOAT, the GOAT!!!
I'm so happy for animators who finally get recognized for their work. It can be a long, lonely and poverty-stricken road, before becoming successful.😊
He is not an animator.
@@curious_banda Naani!?😲 Okay, illustrator/cartoonist...✍🏻
*A LIVING LEGEND LOVE FROM INDIA SENSEI*
His lack of eye contact... he just like me fr
WB are about to make the live-action version of AoT as soon as the final anime episode ended。Of course，with Andy Muschietti on the director's chair。
The Goat
So cute i think oda should do something like this 😇
Nah he ain't got the time. Maybe after the manga ended he can do a world tour
@@muhammadrifaie9577 true.. a lot of manga authors do this meeting fan thing after the manga ended
@@springsbliss4094 He's not even 50 dude..
I'm shocked the U.S. has some fans that aren't rude to creators.
Most of the fans that are rude exist online and don't go to Cons let alone leave their house often, if at all.
@@omegashenron8 star wars vs star trek fandom, before people ranting on the Internet they were on the streets instead . If they weren't on the Internet, they actually will be outside talking shit too .😅 people think they won't go outside but I saw how crazy fandoms will do to get their message across
Deserves all the love...
Omg this is so wholesome I can't even.
these guys are so lucky
Wow! What an experience to meet THE AUTHOR, CREATOR OF AOT, ISAYAMA HAJIME! I still dislike the ending but it doesn't negate the very fact that I love the series overall. I love the characters, the premise, the plot, the drama, design, world, the Titans. AOT is still my favorite series and it's in my top 5. I would love to meet him and I hope he can come to Anime Expo 2023!!!!
In Japan, the ending was well received, but what is it that people overseas don't like?
@@sansan-tj3of It is just a meme at this time, dont talking about this guy, u can dislike It but now it seems like the cool thing is to say It was bad uust because a main character have feelings :D
@@sansan-tj3of It was definitely not well received in japan as well but not as bad as the internet one.
@@Someone-zs5xrI am Japanese. I had the impression that the majority of Japanese were raving about it. Some said it was a little difficult to understand.
@Godpunisher5233 I thought it was obvious that Eren likes Mikasa and we finally got to hear his true feelings in the last episode. I feel that Eren is really clumsy.
Since Eren is dead, I don't really think anything of Mikasa and Jean getting married.
I think that endings in which most of the characters die are common and boring.
I think the difference between the impressions of foreign fans and Japanese fans is the difference in the sense of religion.
Even in Japan, there's no fan service like getting your manga signed and drawn. I'm so jealous!
History writer ❤
I'd love to get to meet him at one point. His story had such a profound impact on my life.
It makes me sad anime fans can be so toxic to creators. But this warms my heart..... I hope he understands how much this series means to all of us.
羨ましいぜ！
I love his art ❤
The king looks well
1:28 ❤Mikasa
i hope to meet this man someday... so much love and respect
I wish I was born in NY. He's my favorite story author and it's one of my biggest wish to meet him and tell him how his story changed the genre of fiction into something breathtakingly amazing. One day, if I'm lucky I will meet you, sensei. 😖
The best & touching comic ❤
محظوظين اتمنى اقابل ايسياما يوماً ما
Honestly I’m surprised they even focused that much on AoT’s ending in this clip. Sure it wasn’t the best, but AoT as a whole is freakin amazing! Isayama made an incredibly unique world, great characters, & a high level story! Very few other anime have even come close to AoT.
He a chill dude
Like Levi? he kinda like Levi 🤣🤣
We want Initial D 48 volumes printed in omnibuses and then MF Ghost print formats.
everyone: man i loved "this aspect" of your story
isayama: damn, that's crazy
"you should be proud of what you did"
羨ましいね
He made Miakasa his signature :(
