    “Quiet people have the loudest minds”. A saying that I think applies deeply to the most tragic character in Attack On Titan: Bertholdt Hoover. And I’m not only referring to his personality, but also his role as a character. A question I like to ask fans of Attack On Titan is: “How did you feel when you watched Bertholdt’s death scene in Season 3?” The answers I get range from “I was relieved because he deserved it for all the pain and innocent deaths he caused” to “I felt bad for him because he was forced to do what he did and he didn’t deserve it”.
    I found it quite poetic that a seemingly quiet and secondary character like Bertolt could induce such strong polar opposite emotions. As I dived deeper and deeper into his character, I discovered that there was so much more to Bertolt’s character than meets the eye. A gentle reminder to not judge a book by its cover and today, I would like to open the book of Bertholdt Hoover with all of you.

    THANK YOU! Finally someone who appreciates Bertholdt for who he real is! He's my 2nd favourite character and his end is just so unfair and sad.

      Thank YOU for appreciating the video! Definitely a tragic character, but such a fascinating one to watch also. RIP Bertholdt

      They were disenfranchised kids forced by their family and government to be a part of something horrid in exchange to be upgraded to second class citizens. 😢

    Berthodolt is easily the most underrated character in aot
    His junior high scene with annie is so beautiful

    I've always sympathized with Berthold in many ways. You raised some very great points in this one. I particularly think the way you reversed Berthold and Rainer in terms of the strong and weak dynamic was an angle I never thought of before.

    Thank you for making a video about Bertholdt! He's been my second, then most favored character upon the revelation of who the Warriors were, and such an underestimated one at that...

    • @AboveWill
      @AboveWill  Год назад +2

      So happy to hear that he is one of your favourite! I do think he is often overlooked so I am always glad to see some Bertholt appreciation

    Great video, he was my favourite character right from the start when I started reading the Manga in 2012/13.
    Just a quick mention about the MANGA SPOILER ending of this video.
    Right at the end Bertolt ended up fighting for Armin and Annie etc. after Armin had met him in paths. So I wouldn’t say it symbolises him as a war machine there. He held Armin, Ksaver, Grisha and Kruger all together. I feel this was more of a depiction of him regaining autonomy and individuality rather than just fighting?

      @AboveWill  Год назад +2

      I think you are right! I missed that part from the later chapters. Thanks for sharing and glad you enjoyed the video! Bertholdt may have a better ending than I had in mind so I'm happy for him :)

    By the way over the top plot armour ruined AOT all those Titans couldn't kill puny humans
    As per tragic character for me it's reiner I don't even like him it's just that for a guy who has armour Titan he is so broken I feel just let him die yams let him die
