My favorite thing about Reiner is that out of every character in AoT, Reiner is probably the most “human”. While others have some great selfless drive or aspect to them that sets them apart from others, Reiner is the most normal. While others have some grand dream, some distinguishable characteristic, whether it be the superhuman abilities of the Ackermans, the optimism and courage of Armin, the anger, inherent rage, and checkered fate of the Jaegars, the talent and kindness of all the others, Reiner is just a normal person wearing a mask to hide his weakness just trying to find an answer and a reason to his life. But all of his efforts and actions cost him almost everything, so he clings to the little he has and tries so hard to prevent them from slipping away. He’s not some great charismatic figure, he’s not a courageous warrior that would gladly sacrifice himself for the greater good. He’s just a single person trying his best with the hand he’s been dealt. A man who moves forward yet stands still.

@@molinmay5715 it's pretty interesting because now when I watch their reveal scene (my favourite btw) I always get hyped up because it was so well made with the music, the flashbacks, the foreshadowing, the lightning animation, the facial expressions and the reaction of other viewers; but when I watched it for the first time I didn't really notice how good the scene actually was. I was kinda shocked, because I was anyways so invested in the story at the time (I binge watched all Seasons in a few days), that I was already overwhelmed by all the things going on (Beast Titan can speak, Ymir is a Titan shifter, no hole in the wall, Titan on Connie's house is speaking, what in heck does pastor Nick know), and so I pretty much couldn't even comprehend what Reiner just said. When I finally realized what he was saying I honestly almost thought he was kidding, I remember thinking "If that's true this is just sad" and that described pretty accurately how I felt about it. When they started fighting I got pretty hyped though.

The thing I find most depressing about Reiner is that he lost Bertholdt, the one person who looked after him and the one person who Reiner could call a friend, or more applicable, a brother. Part of me thinks that Reiner wished to die alongside Bertholdt during the retake of wall Maria op, instead Bertholdt dies screaming for his comrades without Reiner alongside him. Added with the guilt of death and destruction Reiner caused, Reiner probably has survivor's guilt for living at the expense for his comrade's sacrifice. Now Reiner's alone with no one to truly understand him, as Bertholdt and Reiner have been through thick and thin together and for Reiner to lose his brother abruptly is nothing short of tragic.

+Tenzin Yega Thing is, even if he wasn't a very developed character and he died quite soon, Marco stuck out by how selfless and kind he was to his friends, specially Jean. So yeah, when we learn of his horrible death, it's natural to feel OUTRAGED and MAD against Bertolt, Annie and Reiner, comrades he trusted and who betrayed him. However, then we learn about life of Eldians in Marley and their own suffering, and we can see how the "Shingeki no Kyojin" world is no longer heroes vs monsters, but humans massacring each other in an endless cycle of hatred and tragedy. Ergo, being Mad at Reiner (and Eren for that matter) is natural, but eventually we should try to understand and forgive these characters, who live in far worse circumstances than us (albeit fictitious).

Exactly he is a sad character who couldn't be no the proud son nor the the chosen warrior and last not the hero but a mass murderer + two faced bastard ... very sad character When he said to eren " just kill me .. I can't live with myself anymore " it hit me so hard ...

[@iwannadie6780]

"WHY!?....... why did I let myself dissolve...... INTO SUCH A HALF ASSED PIECE OF SHIT!!" This is the most impactful part of his speech. Why? If you rewatch it. You can see Reiner tearing up. He didn't want to do what he did. He truly cared about Eren and the others. You can also see how damaged he is from playing two different people. My heart bleeds for him. We love you Reiner!

[@okaylow9124]

People hate on Gabi for what happened in the recent episode but you cannot blame her for being the way she is since she's just led to believe all of those things. She's doing exactly what eren would've done. Gabi is like eren in the sense that she wants the other side gone for good. This video made me realize that Reiner was also like Eren but he witnessed what the other side was like and changed because he understands that he is just being fed lies. The eren in season 4 is like the Reiner who attacked Paradis except that Eren doesn't care about the other side at all, you can tell Reiner and Bertholdt actually did care about the other side at one point, Bertholdt even said it at one point.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions" and laminated with the blood of the young, the naïve, and the ignorant AOT is a story of humanity. We are all Eren. We are all Reiner. We all share in the tragedies that set us apart, through our youth, our naivety, our ignorance Greatest anime of all time

[@thecrimsonfucker8467]

The emotional baggage Reiner is caring is too much even Eren too. They are caring too much guilt and pain and suffering. They are the best characters i have ever seen. They even have the best character development.

[@RayanMADAO]

My favorite character

[@ellieee7330]

it makes me cry because his emotional state is so hard to handle when you look at it, yet this man carries on to protect and risk his life for the people he’s supposed to be fighting against, and i hope if he does die, it’s peaceful, because he deserves so much more. watching attack on titan is hard because you hate him at first, but when you really think, you understand why he did it, but it sets you apart from the other side, and you don’t know what to do. this is why it’s my favourite show. i’ve learnt so much from it, and it teaches me things i wouldn’t comprehend before.

[@Real_Genji]

What's sad is that the only person who probably truly understood him was Bertolt. The fact that Reiner had to go home without him made him so tragic. He felt so alone because he doesn't fit anywhere now. If Bert had been there with him on his return, at least he would be able to share the grief because someone could understand what he was going through, but he didn't, and now Reiner has to suffer all alone, unable to tell anyone what he's going through.

[@zant527]

Ymir claimed to be the only one who could understand Bertholdt and Reiner's position.

[@mridulmeharia9427]

Seriously, Reiner's character and his struggle with mental peace rising due to the sins he has to commit while staying true to his base nature has been something that has shaken me to my core. Rarely has been such a complex character done so right. Hats off to attack on titan to make some of the most compelling characters I've ever seen in any media!

[@teapotkk]

Reiner is a character from our real life and he's related to all of us. Everyone did the choices Reiner did, and regretted it like he did. Maybe that's why I've always loved him. Thank you for what you're doing.

[@scur_vm3409]

Him and Eren are so tragic charasters, it brings me only tears when i think about them

[@firestarRL]

Perfect tribute to one of the greatest written anime characters of all time. Subscribed!

[@akutvgawa]

Thank you 😊

[@najmaali2916]

Every like is a show of love and appreciation to Reiner 🥰💜

[@valyfr]

He is my life since him first entrance, guys, Reiner deserve love

[@rocket-project]

Reiner is a legend. He just wanted to be a hero and save the world but it took him a lot of pain to realise that in his cruel u can't be a hero without becoming a villain first.

[@eugeniamarch]

wow... just wow. that was absolutely incredible the flashes of the 104th members while Reiner was describing them? amazing Reiner is such a tragic character, he is indeed one of the best written characters ever i love him so much, and this video broke my heart 😭😭💖💕

[@akutvgawa]

Thank you for watching 🥺

[@Undexvr]

Reiner became my favorite since the episode where he lifted a titan on his shoulders. People seemed to hate the warriors for killing all those people, but they don't seem to mind what eren is about to do. Spoiler Notice how eren was perceived as humanity's hero, and the warriors as villains who want to wipe out humanity. Now, the warriors are presented as heroes while eren is trying to wipe out humanity.

[@jokerezz8978]

Well can't blame Eren to .. they throw shit at paradis people and they get mad when paradis do the same thing 😗

[@lemao9239]

@@jokerezz8978 I agree

[@twizms7362]

Yup. It's a total reversal and I love it. They're doing exactly what bertolt and reiner did to paradis

[@theempiricist389]

""I'll be the greatest son anyone could ask for"" damnn that broke my heart!

[@Stephen-yq6gq]

I think Reiner will get the justice his character deserves in the last chapters, I don't think he will have a tragic ending

[@ojroche5217]

If anyone in the series deserves a happy ending, it’s definitely Reiner.

[@someonesz]

This is really beautiful. At the season 2 I hated Reiner but now he is one of my favorite characters. This video is so good at telling his story. I hope you'll reach more people 💙💫

[@akutvgawa]

Oh thank you that’s really sweet 🥺💕

[@anthonyshlemon3848]

Reiners my favorite. They did such a good job making you empathize with him.

[@duxfot6998]

Aot is more than an anime. It is a masterpiece which can surpass most other shows. Something anime fans can proudly recommend to the outsiders.

[@ihtishamhussain1785]

One of the only ones, other than like Death Note

[@reeppergames]

Reiner is the definition of a tragic character and is one of the most interesting characters in this show. RBA as a whole are some of the most interesting characters in the show and I love the slow tragic development over the seasons leading up to this last one. My favourite speech in the show is still the someone find us speech given it really illustrates how torn apart they are inside.

[@KanohiVahi]

Damn this gave me feels ;__; Such great editing! 10/10 would feel again. Jokes aside this just highlighted how great character Reiner really is! To think at the start of AOT I just saw him as this simple buff guy with not much of a personality and later he turned out to be one of the most tragic if not the most tragic character in this story. It's what I actually have grown to love about Isayama's storytelling. First we get these simple introductions to these characters and then can even forget them for a while, but later after a lot of time we suddenly return to them and see their perspective and it suddenly changes everything and we are forced to re- think everything we knew about them. Forced in a good way.

[@tatleman5314]

I have never seen a more complex character than Reiner. I used to dislike him, but if you try to see the events through his eyes... damn, it is devastating and there are no right answers. This guy was already fucked in so many ways since the moment he was born.

[@nikolas1636]

An unwanted son, a warrior that was never meant to be, but a hero we all deserved. Its funny how a lot of fandom didnt understand all the meaning Isayama had put in this masterpiece and how he crushed all the stereotypes about heroes and villains, its all a matter of perspective and point of view. Eren and Reiner two sides of the same coin, just beautiful.

[@feifanzheng4789]

When Reiner first shown in the episode i thought he'd die really soon like Marco with that really "nobody"'s face.. While the tower scene really got me into this man... Vulnerable, scared, brave, depressive...Complicated but the same.. He will always be my favorite character in the show and I just wish he will have a better ending..

[@kakyoindamilfhunter7379]

How to make a brilliant character: Step 1. Give him *pain* Step 2. Give him even more *pain* Step 3. *Give him even more pain than the pain given to him in Step 2* Step 4. Repeat from Step 1.

[@strikercool911]

Woah, indeed such a masterpiece !

[@bandabanana4939]

True, Then everyone calls him a well written character lmao

[@strikercool911]

@Ethan Boco LMFAO, we're obviously joking dude

this video is so good, encapsulates everything that makes reiner such a tragic and well written character

[@akutvgawa]

Thank you 😊

[@Wissemoi]

BEAUTIFUL ! This is a beautiful video my friend. I loved the music and the way you told us Reiner's story. The scene at 1m21 is great and at 1m43... Damn, the music was on point. Your idea with 4m30 to show every character Reiner is talking about is amazing. This video is a masterpiece, I'm proud I'm one of your subscribers and friend. You are the best !

[@akutvgawa]

You’re too nice 😭😭😣 I’m so happy you enjoyed it it really means a lot to me! I’m so excited to see what you’re gonna do for S4 👀

[@iRazenrak]

Eren: "What was your goal?" Reiner: "To destroy the walls...and...save the world." Eren: "Ahh, I see. That is noble of you. That would be justice, however, what about my mother? My friends? My home? They suffered the same fate as Liberio, at the hands of you...warriors. How is it fair to only let you preach about saving the world?" Reiner: "Please...let me die..." Eren: "Once, Marley's Titan army had grown too formidable. To protect their national interests, armies of the world built up anti-Titan cannons and technology to fight wars from the skies. Otherwise, the people of the world would've been crushed beneath the weight of Marley's power. As it happened, my little island and its walls became targets of your attacks. With each attack, we lost more people, more land, and our fighting power diminished. After many such battles, Marley remained untouched, but we continued to suffer, and we barely recovered. You and I are seeking the very same thing. We both want to achieve the peace that we envisioned as children. You and I are the same. We're both motivated by our desire for peace and justice. The justice I have delivered against Liberio is no different than what you did to us. Everyone feels the same pain in losing something dear. You and I have both experienced that pain. You strive for your justice, and I strive for mine. We're both just ordinary men, who have been driven to seek vengeance in the name of justice. And, if one comes to call vengeance justice, such justice will only breed further vengeance, and trigger a vicious cycle of hatred. Right now, we live in such a cycle. I know the past, and can foretell our future. It is the same as our history. So we believe that human beings simply cannot understand each other, and they never will. This cruel world of ours is ruled by hatred, and hatred alone. I just keep moving forward, until my enemies are destroyed."

[@fearlessaries.1668]

I just love Reiner so much.♡ No matter what he and Bertholdt went through, in my eyes they are heros for their own side of the medal. Their story is tragic and whenever I think about it it gives me chills. They deserved better. All they wanted was to save their families from the cruel world and all those prejudices. I love Reiner & Bertholdt so much how could you hate my babie? :')

[@Melody_KPOP]

I really love him because he is a fictional character ı know but reiner reflect me so much he deserve more love and deserve more respect, when ı read hate comments to reiner this thing drives me crazy too much because he is not different to other characthers and these people who wrote this kind comments not watched attack on titan as good, ı love other characters too much but reiner its so different for me he's character development is insane and he is had potential to be main character and in the season 4 focus on the reiner's story too much

[@mohammedbasith4689]

Imagine how we would have perceived the story if Reiner was the protagonist. In all honesty, I can't bring myself to hate him despite everything he did. Same reason I can't hate Eren for all he's doing now. They're the same because the world is cruel no matter where you are or how you live. For Reiner, it's even worse than Eren. Eren will do anything to protect his loved ones and the ones who loved him. But for Reiner, he has no choice but to fight for the people who detest him, and fight against the people who loved him.

[@lilipetrovicz1241]

I feel bad for everyone now. The marleyans, because they were terrorised by eldians for so long, and for those poor eldians in Marley, who are basicall forced to fight against their own kind and brainwashed and finally people from Paradise, who were made to forget everything they knew about themselves and be terrorised by both marleyans and eldians. I understand Gabi, Reiner and even Eren. Why did what they did, I mean. And I honestly can't say that any of them are "bad". I'm not sure I would've done different in those situations. This story and the characters are excellent. There isn't good or bad, there's just people trying to survive and fulfill their dreams, making mistakes like all humans do. Giving me the chilles for sure.

[@chaoticclonestudios]

That is soo sad, what a tragic back story. Most people would have pullen the trigger by then.

Reiner initially seems to be the most matured character Then the facade breaks down. What a character arc he has had. I feel sad for him though. He didn't deserve to sufer this much

This was such a great video, I got chills. His story always makes me cry, he's been trough so much and the only time he felt like he truly fit in was with the "demons" he had to kill. Such a tragic character, and with this video I feel like you did him justice. I love him so much.
