So I just reviewed AoT Chapter 139 (last chapter) and the summaries of the last manga arc leading up to Ch139. If we are to assume the author intended to create a right-wing subtext into the manga and try to find themes in there, here are some creative readings I can think of. Not everything…

HmM in retrospect the filming of the short blurb on Tuesday forced almost the entire core table team to wait in line for their turn to film for 30 minutes and some to read the script. Had i foreseen it, I would have brought a copy for the script for each person. It was a…
