And Willy Tybur baited Eren into attacking to justify the Marley's second attempt to invade. That second attempt was coming anyway. Sure Willy took advantage upon learning of a possible infiltration, but regardless, he stood behind his declaration of war. Eren was never baited like that. Even if he didn't attack in that moment, the invasion would've still carried out. Its not like he was going to backpedal that war declaration if Eren didn't attack. Still a crass move to do it with civilians present. Sorry, but as Mikasa said, you can't take that one back. What you said makes sense but at the same time Eren is every bit as foolish as he is determined. Since you brought up that Mikasa moment, you should take note of the sad face Eren gives her when he sees her teary eyed. He's not cold-blooded here, he clearly isn't happy about the colaterral damage he caused. He said the same in chp 115 too. If he didn't attack, the world would've mobilized against the island, which would be an impossible fight for them. Eren really had no choice in the matter. Even if you still hold it against him, just say you don't like the nature of the attack, not that he just seemed "foolish".

On that note, in regards to ur other response, nobody is calling Eren "the hero" anymore. He is still the main protagonist, but hero is not the term anymore. We all consider him to be an anti-hero, and a very respectable one at that. Sure, us fans aren't happy with the civilians who were killed, but we understand the full picture to know that what Eren did was necessary, hence why we support him. Even if I hated Eren like you do for this, I'd still understand the story enough to know that too. He's not as "hellbound" as you may think tbh, he can be forgiven for this, which I predict he might be soon. Not saying you'll like him then, but be more open to the fact that he is not the "villain' you and few others think he is now.  That way, even if its just a bad taste you guys have in ur mouth with him, you'll be easier to understand as regardless if a few of you feel this way, the argument doesn't mean anything if you can't structure it properly. Yes I am well aware the invasion was inevitable. But doing what he did.........If he could get into Marley largely unseen then he could've found alternative options to getting the War Hammer.

Respectable? LMAO. More than just a bad taste, dude. I'm looking forward to when he dies. Doubt that dude. Getting into Marley was one thing, but turning into a titan and eating the WHT while remaining covert is literally impossible. The Tybur family was the Marley equivalent to the Reiss family. Look how both were kept under tight wraps and security. But also, there were other targets Eren had to take out, like the military leaders. I know you feel there were other ways, few others threw that rebuttle out there too, but it was always 100% subjective of you guys. There were never any other ways, hence why nobody threw that in Eren's face when he returned to them following that attack.

This goes to my original point. The problem isn't the attack per se but the innocents killed in the crossfire. Doubt you would be demonizing Eren if there were no casualties like that lol besides you sound like you acknowledged him at one point. If yes, what was ur take on the trost battle against the Female titan? You know what I'm getting at lol

This is why I said "bad taste". You just feel that way cuz of the innocent collateral damage. I get that, I wasn't happy either, but I understand enough that I don't think Eren should be put to death for it. Btw, if you don't get ur wish for him to die, will you be good with that? There's a strong chance that's him holding the baby in the final panel.
