      Remember if u want to be a leader, u dont need to be strong like Levi. I know Levi is stronger, far stronger than Erwin, but Erwin is so much better when he Lead. A leader must be wise in making every decision, what is the future, and be willing to sacrifice. Same with Cannon. The people who control the Cannon is weak and not strong, but without the people who control the Cannon, the Cannon would not fire up right? Thats why Survey Corps leader is always weak like Erwin, Armin, Hange, they are not strong enough to kill 200 Titans like Levi, but their brain is what lead them to victory. Also, thats why Erwin wants to choose Hange as a new Leader when he died and not Levi. Why? She is more Senior (if u look at Season 1, when Levi joins the Survey Corps, u will see in front of the line, there is Hange. Which mean, before Levi joins Survey Corps, Hange join first) and also she is a better thinker and so much wiser in making decisions.

They would not have succeeded in saving Eren if it wasn't for him, and neither would it have been possible to retake Wall Maria if it wasn't for Erwin. Overthrowing the corrupt government was all Erwin too, including capturing the Female Titan. These among many other things. All Armin did was add support to Erwin's plans.
      I am not saying it would have been better to choose Erwin than Armin - Armin is a main character after all. Even I would choose to save Armin over Erwin, but do not disregard Erwin like that. If it wasn't for Erwin, there would be no guarantee for success, and casualties suffered would have been way more than with Erwin.

      Ngl, when I watched that for the first time, I cried. Thinking of what Erwin was feeling. Ever since he became Commander it's always been bleak. Everytime they ventured out of the walls, more soldiers died. Their families blamed Erwin for it. Always.
      It's not like he had a choice. Both as the Commander of Survey Corps and as a son trying to prove his father's theory right, defeating the Titans was all he could do. But even with all his determination, with his strategies, the will to throw everything away and Humanity's Greatest Soldier under his command, he couldn't make any significant progress.
      But in this moment, for the first time, the people who called Survey Corps a burden on Humanity cheered for them. Actually treating them like the heroes countless deceased soldiers deserved. You can see it on his face, the sheer joy and hope that if they succeed, that's the kind of Welcome they will always receive.
      It took countless sacrifices, years of hard work, nerves of steel and the loss of an arm for Erwin to be acknowledged by the people just once.
      But he didn't know it would be his last.
      I'm sad again now.

      Yeah.
      What motivated him to do what he did in Aot was his dream that he had after that one history class with his dad. In the words of Kenny, "Everyone's a slave to something." Erwin was a slave to his dream, and dying would finally free him from that. This is reflected when Levi has to make the decision to save Armin or Erwin. While Erwin would probably be a service to humanity if he were brought back, it would not be a service to Erwin himself. I think Erwin is very well written because of this motivation, and Levi as well because he recognizes he has to let Erwin give up on his dream and die.
      I believe Erwin sub-consciously realizes this because he doesn't resist when the titan picks him up, but yeah.

    What put Erwin above most characters, in my opinion, was not his power, but his strategic thinking. I'd argue that Erwin is one of the smartest characters in AOT ever and has won many battles with his pure mind alone. Yes, his fighting ability is lacklustre compared to the likes of the Ackermans and Eren, but brawn doesn't always mean power.

      I still think the show possesses that vibe but it's matured in a way much like the characters. They were all so naive and believed it was them versus the titans, and it was a pretty black and white approach. The monsters vs humanity. But after Erwin dies and they reach the sea, they learn about the outside world and that there's much more complex forces at work. Yea it sucks not having his speeches and spirit, but the scouts still embody that underdog lets save the world vibe. I think the greatest example of this was when they show up to Liberio or whatever and hold their own against a much more advanced military. But yea it is much darker, but I think it's intentional, much like as we mature from children to adults, our world views grow darker (I mean look what happened to all the kids on the show)

    erwin sent people to their deaths for a chance to achieve victory.
    the people that accuse him of being a monster and that he only wanted death and bloodshed and anything like that forget that he was also the one to create the long-distance enemy scouting formation, designed to have the least amount of titan encounters as possible and avoid death as much as they could. why would he do that if he just wanted to send people to their demise?
    anyways, yeah. i can't really change anyone's opinions but whether you like it or not, erwin's character is incredibly well written, and he's one of the best, if not the best in the aot universe, imo.
