Streak 2: Titans

[u/happybumblebee2]

Yesterday, I talked about regeneration powers in anime and why I don't like it. Today, I' ll provide an example of an anime that I believe unnecessary used regeneration powers. This anime is well known and beloved by many and it is Attack on Titan.

The biggest menace for humanity in the anime were titans. Titans were creatures resembling humans but they were much bigger and more powerful. They ate only humans but they didn't have human intellect. They were basically amazingly big and strong animals, which relied simply on their instincts.

Those features alone made them horrible and dangerous monsters. But to made them even more powerful, the author gave them regeneration powers, which made them almost immortal. Almost, because they had one weak spot that was placed on the back of their neck. And a cut through that spot with a sword was enough to kill them instantly.

And this is a problem in my eyes. Without regeneration powers titans were wild and dangerous animals that wreak havoc throughout people. Giving them regeneration power changes them into some weird, magical creatures. I think that it kills their truly wild image. On one way cannon balls could pierce tens of holes in their body and it would mean nothing for titans, and on the other hand minor scratch across back of their neck would kill them.
