Does Anyone Else Watch Attack on Titan?

2023-03-08 at 12:14 PM UTClol, that's you? I just assumed it was rabbitweed, always thought it was weird he hasn't posted in like a year but kept coming back with that account.
I think most of the stuff you mentioned is too ambiguous without the writers being expressly J'ewish or interested in the faith - a culture retreating to an enclave isn't expressly J'ewy (though the Samson Titan option is an interesting take) and the purpose was more penance, like a monk isolating himself to wait for death or self-mummification rather than to prepare for a 'Messianic Age' - it seems clear to me that the Founder never intended or foresaw Eren and the Attack Titan taking revenge on the world.
As for the tree you could just as easily link it to old pagan traditions that used trees in place of tombstones, symbolising rebirth or return to natureThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

It's pretty funny it got canceled in its first season for "when you wish upon a j00" but managed to come back when it was realized how much potential the series had and how much money it could make. I bet the meetings afterwards would have been hilarious. Seth McFarlane still doesn't really talk about it -

Oy vey you're both such moronic goyim. Paradis = eden! Paradise! This would be apparent to any jedi child. It's obviously the tree of knowledge of good and evil (Mikasa and Eren). Meikai is of course correct, however, in that this is symbolic of the 3rd temple in a way - it is a forbidden fruit, something the lord has forbade us build until the true Messiah is born. The Eldians are also God's chosen people as we are (they are literal, where we are intellectual giants). The show depicts the Fall of Man, Adam and Eve, to whom every jedi ultimately traces their ancestry. The Attack Titan, with its connection to itself through time, serves as the snake who brings about the fall (as we see Eren do to his father, and himself). The founding titan is the Lord, G-d, who inflicts great suffering on the Eldians until they wrestle control from/of her to forge their own destiny - "Jaegerist" might as well be "Israelite" (for we are, after all - our people - his descendants, and adherents to the covenant that G-d created with him).
Do you truly believe there is no connection? Despite retelling directly the story of genesis, the foundation of the jedi faith, portraying the ghettos and the holocaust (the giant titans created many a literal holocaust, and in scale it must have nearly rivalled the Shoah)? It even makes a point of inverting the holocaust by having the Eldians escape from the ghettos arrive at *freedom* and a promise of life after a train ride in cattle cars. -
2023-03-08 at 4:03 PM UTCYou all, like so many in the west, are blind to anything but Christian symbolism! If if it does not contain a Christ figure, goyim are truly lost and in need of guidance at all times. This is the most jedi television program since Fiveish, and you ignore your lying eyes why? Because you do not want to see jedis depicted as powerful? The antisemitism on this forum never ceases to amaze me.

Thank you, Rebbi. It is always good to have confirmation from such a wise scholar of the jedi faith as yourself. I would like to once again apologize for all the blatantly antisemitic posts I've made over the years, but this time in public. You've really shown me the error of my ways. I'm very happy that you somehow found your way to this corner of the internet - meeting you truly changed my life. -

yeah this is what fucked me over. i watched season 3 as it aired without watching 1-2 again and was kinda lost. should prob watch it from the beginning again, now that it's more or less done (a couple more episodes but the last episode they put out was an hour long so you can tell they're really tryna wrap shit up at this point. it's currently on "the final season: no really, no REALLY we really mean it this time" and they actually do seem to mean it.
istg if they make me wait for the final final final final season i will fly to japan and fly a plain into MAPPA's studio building i do not care anymore their animations have consistent issues with transposing characters onto the background layer and i am done with their shit that would be the last straw (they clearly need to understand how plains work)The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
