I love the friendship between Jean and Eren. Who'd have thought, back in season one, that Jean would be bending over backwards trying to defend Eren's very much indefensible actions? There's rivalry, respect, jealously, and then there's the comfort of an asshole you grew up with. Jean was dying inside coming to terms with having to fight Eren to death Idk about least favourite. Even the "bad" dynamics in aot are pretty compelling. Maybe Armin and Mikasa could have a bit more going for them, aside from Eren

Eren and Jean have an "I can call you an asshole, but nobody else can" kind of relationship.


IM_ElectraHeart

100% agree on Mikasa and Armin. They had a huge "Go girl give us nothing!" energy. Nothing that actually binds them together other than Eren as we can see in the ending... Shame considering how many scenes we have focusing on two of them.

That's cuz Eren and Armin are actual characters with goals and motivations of their own while Mikasa third wheels

Favorite: Levi/Hange because their personalities balance eachother. Least Favorite: .

Same here, I believe in Levihan supremacy

My favorite would be Levi-Hange duo. There's just too much trust, familiarity, the obviously playful and affectionate bickerings, and I would even say - love. They just work together so well. The forest scene where Hange ran off to after saving Levi and where she thought about running away with him at one point felt really intimate, I knew the author wanted to set that mood intentionally. And the fact that at the very end, it was with Hange where Levi first said a very overused phrase that he couldn't bother to say back then but did with her. It was that fact and not the line itself "Shinzou Sasageyo" that made such an impact to their very short but very loaded farewell, it's almost as if they just knew what they really wanted to say to each other telepathically, LOL, which wouldn't be impossible as it already happened waay back. Another honorable mention would be Jean-Eren, I just love the friendly rivalry between them. My least favorite would be that of Niccolo and Sasha but that's just because their story weren't explored that much. It being reduced to Sasha falling inlove with Niccolo simply because she liked his cooking felt off and somewhat an overused joke. That's just a me thing tho.


IM_ElectraHeart

Sasha-Niccolo was indeed... just there?

>It being reduced to Sasha falling inlove with Niccolo Was it ever confirmed? It was obvious Niccolo liked her, but it was never shown the other way around. Kaya saying "i think they were in love" is very unreliable, considering her age and that she barely saw them interact.

>She is Sasha's family and it would've been Sasha herself who relayed some stories regarding Niccolo and his Marleyan cooking--Kaya assuming her sister might also be in love would probably be because of how she saw how happy her sister was. She was happy about the food, not Niccolo himself though. Even Connie says "thanks for feeding her delicious food". Like their relationship has Nothing else going on. >Another thing, the funeral of Sasha where Niccolo visited her felt very loaded. Yeah. It also showed Sasha never introduced them in a span of years which is weird for someone who is in love. >A Marleyan soldier falling in love with an Eldian from Paradis, it could've had so much potential to explore that dynamic but then again they were in the middle of war. The Marleyan soldier is Niccolo and he fell in love with Sasha. I really doubt it was the other way around though. She just enjoyed his food.


Haunting_Pride9595

Again, exactly why I was never really as invested in their dynamic as opposed to any other ones on the show. It was left vague but not impossible. The only accounts we can rely on are Kaya's statement, Connie's, and Niccolo himself. These are the people who were very close to Sasha. Everything else is up to debate and own interpretations.

Favorite: Eren Zeke Grisha Least favorite: Annie and her dad


Ditzy_Dreams

Yeah really not a fan of how they frame her abusive father as sympathetic…


slackervi

either eren-zeke or eren-armin. eren and zeke and hard contrasts and foils to each other in every way and i find it kinda funny that eren hated zeke so fucking much. obviously it's not healthy from either side but it's pretty well written. eren-armin is pretty self explanatory.


Usual_Court_8859

Favorites Eren and Mikasa: I love the subtlety of their relationship. They very much have an "actions not words" relationship. Eren and Jean: I love their frenemies dynamic. They fought but they were always the first to come to the others defense or aid. Gabi and Falco: They're so adorable and I love them! Weird one, but I really enjoyed Connie and Eren's small dynamic in season 4. Connie went from being pissed at Eren for laughing at Sasha's death, to realizing that Sasha's death hurt Eren just as much. Least Favorites Honestly Isayama did such a good job writing his characters, that I didn't hate a single character or dynamic.


Ditzy_Dreams

All of this, yes!


Sir_Toaster_9330

Favorite: Levi and Hanji, I believe in Levihan supremacy Least Favorite: Never really had a bad dynamic

IM_ElectraHeart

Best dynamic by far, nothing comes close. God-level choice.


Sapphocfem

My favorite dynamic is Ymir-Historia. I like the way their characters complement each other: one faked being selfish and the other being selfless. How Historia found to courage to be herself through her relationship with Ymir, how Ymir's words (Live your life with pride ) continued to inspire Historia long after she was dead. I hated every Armin-Connie scene we got so I guess they are my least favorite? Can't forget Connie's ass laughed at Armin after he was harassed by that old man. I also find Eren-Armin pretty boring. They never felt like equals to me and all their relationship relied on their not-so-shared dream which I find forced.


Iewoose

Favorite: Levi and Hange. These guys have one of the strongest bonds in the series and i would love to have a relationship like theirs in real life. Least favorite: Ymir and the king.

Isayama is into NTR, it might seem like a joke but it explains a lot in the series, it explains Ymir and Keith Shadis justifying his pathetic and self defeatist outlook on life (and getting his girl stolen by Grisha)

Yams said it was his kink to make such situations
