@NoNickNeeded:

Agreed, people are blind if they didn't realize that Annie empathized and respected her 104th classmates, most notably Eren and Armin, despite her role as a brutal antagonist. She's not just a complete monster in which she literally kills everyone. She's selective, and that's what I really like about her character. She obviously loves what she does (fighting) and seem pretty proud of it, and it honestly grates me when people sweep Bertolt and Reiner's crimes under the rug when their actions caused just as much damage if not more on the people behind the walls. They're not all just complete "PURE EVIL", they obviously have their reasons (even if some seem more half-hearted than others *cough* Bertolt *cough*), and in the world of SNK, the morality-scale is pretty damn gray all over. Not just black and white, as one would be fooling themselves if they think that is all what this story is about.
