I Have A Question That I Thought You Might Know The Answer To (or Be Interested In Speculating About):

I have a question that I thought you might know the answer to (or be interested in speculating about): can the lines on the classic 3DMG gear fire backwards? Or more generally, what's the range of movement when aiming those things? If it's relatively limited, that would mean the anti-personnel gear does have an advantage in flexibility, which might make me hate it slightly less. ;)

I’m so sorry for my late ass response to this! One of the reasons I decided to rewatch the anime is so I could answer this question thoroughly lol. Now then,

DISCLAIMER: This is my personal opinion. In no way am I stating what I say here is canon or completely accurate. if you disagree with my opinion, that’s perfectly fine! Everyone has a different interpretation of the series and its characters! However, if you are going to send me messages trying to argue points of view with me or send me hate messages because my opinion differs from your own; please do us both a favor and don’t even bother with it.

Though it is shown that the wires in the classic gear setup can withstand being moved and retracted from just about any direction without snapping after being anchored, I do not believe they can actually be fired backwards.

Every source I have looked up for this only shows one firing point on the anchor docks mounted at the hips, and it’s solely forward facing.

The direction in which they can fire the wires is limited solely to where they can aim their hips in a forward facing direction. They can choose how high or low to shoot them, but the direction at which they fire remains the same no matter what. However, even with this limited point of fire, their mobility overall is actually quite versatile. Like I said above, even though the wires can only be fired in one direction, they can move and be retracted from any direction. So once the wearer has the anchor secure, they can move as they please so long as only one wire is deployed. If both are deployed, this could happen:

I Have A Question That I Thought You Might Know The Answer To (or Be Interested In Speculating About):

The anti-personnel gear definitely has a more free range of initial directional choice, but due to being fired from the hands, it leaves the user open to attacks and the overall range of movement is compromised. They can only swing from their wrists, aim, shoot, and land on their feet.

I Have A Question That I Thought You Might Know The Answer To (or Be Interested In Speculating About):

They aren’t having to distribute their body weight or hyper-balance to preform, and they aren’t having to do wild flips and stunts to kill titans with that gear because it was made as a weapon to annihilate humans. So basically, it’s much easier to use. So while the classic gear is much more difficult to implement properly in battle and has limited directional options upon firing, it definitely offers a much broader spectrum of mobility overall. However, the AP3DMG allows for quicker attacks and freedom of direction with less strain on the body overall. So both have their benefits and their flaws, I suppose.

But neither allow for backwards firing from what I can tell.

Honestly, what I’m hoping is they managed to combine the two so they could have four points of directional fire. The better directional choice granted by the anti-personnel gear, and the free range of movement offered by the classic gear.

Yess

On shikamaru not giving af about Sauske Kishi really could've taken that somewhere bc I doubt that he was the 1st and only one to feel like that. Like you want me to risk my life risk not coming home to my family/life cos somebody wanted to take an extended vacation/Move out from your village? Tf???? Like imagine if you couldn't move from state to state or town to town smh...

It’s a mission, he got paid. All their missions involve risking their life and not coming home to their family, no? It’s not a desk job. That’s why it’s hard to imagine someone like shikamaru or chouji would want to become a shinobi if given other options.

Hello! I was wondering if it was okay to request relationship headcanons for Armin? Thank you in advance <3

Hello hello, thank you for your request! I accept any and all requests so yes, of course! Thanks for your patience, and I hope I did him well. This being my first attempt at an snk character here. Enjoy~

Hello! I Was Wondering If It Was Okay To Request Relationship Headcanons For Armin? Thank You In Advance

When Armin has a crush on someone, he tends to be a little more quiet when he’s around them in order to figure out as much about them as possible.

That and he didn’t want to say anything too crazy that would likely run you off. It seemed like the best strategy. He wouldn’t be mute per se, he would just dial down a little. It was great, so far, since —

He would learn more about you.

You would remain oblivious to his morally grey opinions.

He would be a good listener in your eyes. A safe place.

It was a total win-win-win if you asked him.

Unfortunately, while he’s busy concentrating all his efforts into winning you over and proving he was a good fit for you, he didn’t factor in certain people around him.

People like Eren.

“Why do you get so quiet around [Name]?”

Armin chokes on his soup, eyes widened in horror at Eren’s lack of tact, especially since you were sitting right there.

“W-w-what do you mean Eren?!” He mumbles softly, a panicked smile twitching on his face. “There isn’t anything going on!”

Eren blinks at Mikasa. “Hey, Mikasa, don’t you think so too?”

Mikasa, having secretly known about Armin’s crush on you, kindly shuts down the whole ordeal before you started to catch on.

“Eat your food before it gets cold, Eren.”

Armin shoots her a grateful look.

Since Eren was one of the biggest influencers of their group, it wasn’t long before the rest of them began to tease Armin about his crush on you, despite Eren still not figuring out what was going on.

Now that too many people knew, and it wouldn’t be long before you’d hear of it in passing, Armin decides you need to hear if from him first.

He doesn’t like how his days of admiring you from afar are over, but he couldn’t contain the excitement of finally knowing. He tells himself he doesn’t fear rejection, and that he doesn’t really deserve someone like you; equipping himself with that, he’s ready to approach you.

It was during one of your frequent chats that he confessed.

“I don’t know if you’ve heard about this yet but I’m in love with you.” Armin says with a serious expression.

“…. Huh?”

His expression falls. “Um, uh, was that a bit too forward? Or did you not hear what I said? I, uh,” his eyes dart around the room, as if what he wanted to say was hiding somewhere. “Ah, you know what, I’m sorry. Let’s just forget this happened, I’m sorry.”

“Armin.”

“Yes?”

“I’m going to kiss you.” You warn in a fit of giggles.

“Wait, WHA-”

To this day, you never lose an opportunity to remind him of the cute noise he made when you kissed him.

Or the even cuter noise when you told him you loved him too.

Your relationship with Armin was calm and secure. You knew this would be a lifelong commitment, however long your lives may be.

He wasn’t afraid to talk to you more, to tell you about his less than noble opinions, and he was reassured whenever you’d support him any chance you got.

The emotional bond is strong because he’d taken the time to get to know every facet of you, and you embraced every facet of him.

Intimacy though was a bit of a grey area. Armin would be nervously careful when it came to kissing the first time around, and then nervously aggressive when he’d ask to try again. It was really endearing though.

You’d have to lead first, but then he’d always snatch the reigns and finish it each time.

As soldiers, your duty was to serve the crown and protect humanity from extinction. Everyone had their own goals and agendas, but inevitably they’d have to fall in line.

Armin didn’t like you being caught up in this, but he didn’t want you away from him either. For someone as decisive as him, he’s really torn when it comes to you.

It takes time and a whole lot of it too until he’s comfortable with it.

You two don’t really go on dates given where you are in life, and it didn’t really matter to either of you since you’d already spend as much downtime together as possible.

He’d fuss over you though in the most overbearingly non-overbearing way.

If he’d have disagreements or arguements with you, he’d seek out his friends for advice, but not really follow their advice.

Eren would always say “Talk about it and don’t hold back”, and Mikasa would range between letting you be, and to just be there by your side. Sometimes he’d follow Mikasa’s advice, but usually, he’d just wanted to talk to them to vent.

He sees you in his future though. He doesn’t know what’s in store for him and you, the Survey Corps, humanity even, but he does know one thing — he’d want to explore the world with you too.

How was it? Sweet? Drab? Missing something? Great?

Let me know what you think!

I take requests for Attack On Titan, Boku No Hero Academia, and Naruto.

It came out a bit short (in my standards) because in the snk-verse, they don’t seem to have a future. Thanks, Isayama.
