The Ackerman and Beast Titan Debacle (A Rant lol)

So a lot of you seemed a bit frustrated with us the last couple of episodes of Aot. First of all lets talk about Levi's surname. This was spoiled to me a long time ago on Patreon and youtube because I shipped Mikasa and Levi together and everyone said they were related etc. So when the name reveal happened I thought that was just a known thing. Also it isn't the biggest reveal in my opinion and can be easily overlooked. It isn't a surprise that they could be related.  Also about us thinking the Beast titan is Erwins father. We believe his dad looks just like the guy who was standing on top of the Beast Titan at the end of the Season 2 finale. They have the same features and glasses. So we didn't miss that he was killed we just chose to believe that he somehow survived or potentially was turned into a titan but ate a titan shifter and became the beast titan. Either way he looks just like the dude who said "Not yet, eh" So if Erwins dad is dead that is fine. It does get frustrating when we are told how wrong our theories are because I am sure you all had your own theories while first watching this show and then eventually found out if they were right or wrong. We don't even get that opportunity. The frustrating part is that you guys are acting as if we missed details but we didn't. I guess since this is Patreon I expected a bit of a different tone in the comments but some people have been very rude and condescending towards us and I am confused as to why. The last thing I will say is please stop hyping up episodes every time you guys do that you get disappointed because we don't react in the way you think we should react. Episode 2x11 will be my favorite episode of AoT. That was probably the most hyped we have been and may be during this show. People kept saying 3x2 was going to be amazing, and it was, Levis kicked ass. And the visuals were gorgeous but I didn't feel like his life was at stake the way Erwins was and the chaos that happened in 2x11. Anyways this is just a little PSA to remind you that we should feel free to have our natural reactions and theories without feeling like we are walking on egg shells. Love you all just wanted to say something about this since a majority of your comments have been the same thing over and over lol

Yeah don't worry, your guys theories are great! Can't wait for you to finish this part of season 3 and then get hyped for season 3.5

Brandon Hanson

Don't ready anymore comments until you're done with this season so you don't get spoiled

Ivan Hundric

Ugh the fuck man. That's just entitled bullshit - people thinking that because they've paid money they can dictate how you should react and what you think. They don't own you. And its super lame that they are basically damaging your experience with the show by shooting down theories.

James Simpkin

People really doing this shit? PSA everyone, confirming theories as wrong still counts as a spoiler to a degree. There should be no confirmation, whether it be wrong or right. The best part about watching people react to Aot is the batshit crazy theories they come up with. I loved it when it was me. Don't you dare take this away from me, lol. Fuck outta here with your bullshit, leave them alone. The point of reactions is simply this. Do. Not. Ruin. It. It's sad but this is why people do not like to react to this show. Because the fans are typically caddy, prissy, spoilery bitches. It's a shame. The show is phenomenonal. Honestly though, fuck you all. This Is why my favorite show never gets reacted to. Or reacted to properly. If you guys cause these amazing girls to freeze up and even be afraid to come up with theories and act naturally, you're all uppity cunts.

And what about episode 2ep12, the eren mikasa moment where all hope seemed lost,only for mikasa to make eren realise that he is not a loser so that he can rise again and save everyone.

WakandaForever

i like how invested you guys are in the various characters. lol beauty of different ppl react is the difference sometimes in the reaction.

Ak

Yeah sorry to say, a number of subscribers to react patreons have no chill. I'm subscribed to Semblance of Sanity as well and I've basically stopped looking at comments to their new show polls because people get so incredibly salty in them.

Rhiannon

Honesty yall should just ignore all comments, these ppl are entitled assholes.

Chefawkes

Where y'all going to react to all might thing

Ronnie

Imon, Patreon really should add a mod feature. Maybe you can have a mod-type person. Like someone who reads the comments and lets you know ahead of time if a certain vid/user spoils so that you ignore that vid/user's comments. Its the only way I can think of to try to avoid spoilers while still communicating with the audience. Or go the safe route and just dont read comments. Haha either way I don't care which method you choose I just hope you don't get spoiled. I got spoiled on this anime SO MUCH so i know how it can be annoying. I'll just tell you that people suck in general and you will still get spoilers on Patreon. I have seen it with other channels.

Jessica

I think with Patreon people expect a certain standard when it comes to actual money, no matter if the standard is justified or not. The people who are complaining are people who want to watch a reaction and have the idea that the money they spend is going towards a opinion or theory that reflects theirs and they can react to positively. Which clearly isnt the case because everyone is going to have different opinions or theories. I love you guys because you're so smart in your theories and you're totally on the right path and I'm excited and impressed when you get points completely right! <3 but then people see your theories that aren't correct as a negative thing. So I cant speak for everyone but I think whats happening is people feel more entitled to their opinions on patreon, and when their opinions aren't reflected they feel like they're cheated. In that case, fuck em, they're a loud group but a small one.

Bloodmages

Thanks Imon and Abi for expressing your opinion. If something is bothering you we want to know what it is. I’ve watched so many of your reactions that you have become like family. We want you to be honest about your feelings to supporters. I think the people being condescending are forgetting that this is supposed to be fun!!! Enjoying a show, watching it together and reliving it with your reactions. I would bet anything that these people being condescending like you said have already seen the series!!! Of course your theories won’t be all correct but these people instead of attacking you have to remember when they watched they didn’t know everything either. I call out to patreon supporters to have fun and enjoy the show together with you both without nitpicking everything you say.

Ken Drummer

These people are still causing these problems?? *inserts spongebob "how many times do we have to teach you old man?" Gif*

Manu

But we can't have mods on Patreon. This was towards comments from Patrons I just thought people on here would be more aware of their comments

Imon_Snow

Imon, people can't help themselves. I understand the need to get this off your chest but making this post won't deter this from happening in the future, it just comes with the territory. Your channel is too big which is a good problem to have lol. I think your best bet is ask a mod to read over the comments before you dive in to let you know if they are safe to read.

Quinn

There's another Youtuber who literally guesses EVERYTHING right, and people still give him shit for it in their own ways. You can't please everyone <3

Oli Langley

A lot of your hypothesis' are the same ones I had, and there was a BUNCH of stuff I missed throughout too. Don't let people get your down.

Oli Langley

I always enjoy your theories. Unfortunately people sometimes forget that this is your first time viewing it, of course you girls are gonna miss things here or there. I’m a manga reader and watched the anime multiple times, I remember people online having the same theories or different theories. I know a lot of these complaints are coming from people who read the manga and watched the anime. The complaints are definitely unfair. To the jerks complaining, Remember guys we had our time to speculate these things when the manga chapters came out and when the episodes came out, our theories were wrong 90% percent of the time. Let’s not pretend like we caught these details in our first go. This problem seems to appear on other reactors channels as well so you’re not the only ones. It always bugs me when fans expect you girls to catch things on your first viewing and to come up with correct theories. Abi and Imon Just keep doing what you do, I never had complaints. Theories are always welcome.

Jose

Sucks that people feel the need to "correct"/SPOIL you. I like watching you two figure things out by yourselves, whether your right or wrong. I know I missed details on my first watch and that's ok. Having crazy theories is one of the best parts of this anime and people need to learn that it's ok if the theory is wrong. The answers will come in time. I'm enjoying the reactions and I look forward to the rest of the journey.

Muck

lol omg

Imon_Snow

I'm a huge AoT fan, manga reader since season 1 and watched the past seasons many times over, but the AoT fanbase does really get insufferable at times. Like how difficult is it to just let people have their own theories and figure things out at their own pace? I see spoilers all the time on YT or remarks about how people should have gotten this or that but you would have thought people at Patreon know better. /rant

FrizFroz

I don't get why people are getting upset or frustrated at you girls when it comes to the theorizing part about certain things. Every one of us has been in your shoes at one point or another, and that's including the manga readers as well. It irks me when people act like this. Hindsight is 20/20, guys.

Lalisa Truong

Finally a reactor spoke out, about people hyping up an arc or an episode 😂👍👍

JT

I was never a fan of people saying "oh just wait for episode xyz". Also try not to search anything about AoT. I got spoilered watching a cooking video for baked potatos and that taught me that you are nowhere safe.

Krydda

Haha no worries this isn't about you this was about certain comments that were in my opinion just sort of rude and unnecessary

Imon_Snow

Imon and Abi, it's a shame that you have to do this sort of info bits to Patreon of all things. Come on people, hyping up episodes is a no-no. Jeez, let the women watch the show in their own mindset, people!! Don't be butts. And what comes to the corrections from your fans to your theories, just keep doing you, please!! It's awesome that you at least have theories unlike some other reactors. Ever since this anime aired it's been a shitshow with the manga readers who think they are better because they know certain things before the anime watchers. That is why you get some unnecessary comments (even from other anime watchers) and that is simply because they get easily frustrated because they have to keep their "knowledge" in. Manga reader here and I love your theories and discussions. I hope you don't get discouraged. It would suck if you ended up feeling bad for this whole experience because of some random people.

nismapauliina

That is really too bad if people have shot down the Beast Titan = Erwin's father thing because I feel like it is a completely valid theory and enjoyed watching you two talk about it. Also too bad that you got spoiled about Mikasa and Levi being related. When you didn't react to it, I had hoped you just didn't recognize the last name and would discover the connection later.

Absent1

Yeah, this is a constant problem once a channel gets really big. You end up getting a lot of fans, with little to no social skills, ruining your experience with comments like these. Just try to remember that most of your fans really love your comtent and the theories you come up with, whether they are right or wrong.

Alex Johnson

So I want to apologize when I meant by fangirl out I meant more of the husbando route (which you and abbi have never failed to provide especially last episode) I try my hardest to select my words carefully, did not come through on that post. My bad

William Hollinger

Ignore them, you don't need to fulfill anyone's expectations when it comes to reacting to something for the first time. Just enjoy the show :)

The reason they act like that is they have the false impression that you read the manga. I will only say that the show does not do a good job of explaining things until the 3rd season which is my sole complaint. You shouldnt read the comments; just thank everyone for the positive feedback

Jesus Leyva

it's really annoying when manga readers arrive with their high horses and tell us to what theories are we allowed to have, what we should pay attention, which are the good episodes. I bet they were as lost as anyone else when they were first reading it, and now they act all smart just because they saw more.

I feel like the lesson to be learned from this is that you shouldn't spoil any plot points. That way you aren't disappointed when they aren't surprised by the crazy twist that you told them about.

Typhon

Let them watch the show and for God's sake stop hyping up episodes. That detracts from reactions as it colors their impressions before the fact.

Kyle Edmond

New patron here :) Had the exact same feeling as I went through your AoT reaction posts yesterday. Hope you still enjoy the show and keep up the good work 😊

Bannawit Pimpanuwat

Say it louder for the people in the back🗣😂😂
