"I received the final manuscript of "Attack on Titan" on Eren's birthday.
Everyone, look forward to the May issue of another magazine.
Isayama-kun, thank you for your hard work for 11 years and 7 months!"
Awn, I'll miss this series so much, and I'll miss this place and you guys' company as well ><
I have really limited time to mod and when I discussed being in charge of this area, I was like "uh I love the series, but I won't be able to follow things closely, solve issues, etc". And I got told this is a very peaceful area, active on its own, one of the best places in MH for quality manga debates.
I so appreciate how every time a chapter was out, people would just rush in here to share their minds and celebrate (or criticize) the series together. It's been said here already, but it's also known all around the forum that it's admirable how people in the huge majority of the times sustain a great level of discussion, with all the different PoVs in here. It reaches the point where some that have never felt comfortable posting around decides to eventually drop their opinions since this is a welcoming and friendly place. Sure, it gets heated, but people keep the tone and courtesy most of the time. I wish humanity was more like this... with people coming from different backgrounds, with different values and cores, but willing to listen and to dialogue, legit interested in what the other one has to say, with the capacity to incorporate other views and adapt their minds. The absence of our small community will be felt, ty all you members and guests for these years <3
And heh I doubt Isayama will ever read this, but in case some day in the future he's like "huh wonder what people said back then around the internet about my work", then I'll drop this here: tysm Isayama-san! I haven't felt this engaged in a series in years, SnK is just so unique in so many ways... And your messages were so needed... who would have thought that 10y later it would feel so fitting for our real world moment as well... Looking so damn forward for wtv else you'll work on in the future, you're for sure one of the greatest mangakas of all time to me, brilliant and sensitive... And to think you're my age, I rly look up to you! ( *cough* make some Armin-like MC btw *cough* )
