i'm going to put my two cents in bc many people underestimate the potential of eruri being at least close to canon. like, it's p real that levi legitimately thought that if the ocean were to have a color, it would be erwin's eyes. how can you ship him with anyone else after that—

isayama gave it out for free on print for us that levi usually thinks of literally no one but erwin, even before his death! as well as doubting levi even likes women, proceeding multiple times to say levi's type is essentially erwin.

my whole point with this thread is that people have got to stop undermining how well developed and written their relationship was, and how close to canon it got. like it's fucking respectable how many factors and points they have for each other, whether in show/manga or media
