User blog comment:Raul123alin/My theory about the origin of the titans/@comment-24.150.37.170-20140603223852

I don't know if the Kichirou Moto theory is fake, but it's certainly trite and boring. I prefer the theory that the Titans are biomech who somehow turned (or were turned) on their creators. (I think the Ape titan is a survivor of the initial experiments done on animals) This series has always had a lot more mileage than most in terms of what it has to say about the human condition; the central government is corrupt, the religious leaders exploit the faithful, and humanity as a whole often hardly seems worth the blood and effort Levi and Erwin dedication to saving it. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Erwin turns out to have been completely wrong about just about everything by the end. Hanji Zoe has the right idea: the Titans should be objects of fascination, not hate and fear. As a metaphor for our self-destructiveness, and our unthinking dependence on technology, the theory of Titans as biomech has a lot going for it. It's my favourite theory so far.
