"Bluh bluh bluh, my mother got eated by giants, bluh." - the full script of "Attack on Titan"

[snarp]

Does Manpain MacAran ever get to be less of a narcissist? Or does he die, so we can get a less infuriating protagonist? In real life people who react to disasters like this - like they're the only person who's been hurt, like they literally can't see other people's problems until they're shoved right in their faces - are not the heroes.

I am not the target audience for this kid's shit! Mikasa and Armin so far are much more admirable characters. Can't we kill him off and put Mikasa in charge?
