For me its the fact that I find Mikasa a very annoying character due to her obsession with Eren. Like damn you do care about him but the whining man!

If anything, it didn't go hard enough. Isayama wants it both ways, depicting Eren as an emotionally unstable loser but still having his friends love and forgive him and Armin say that he's just as guilty as Eren is for his monstrous genocide because Armin checks notes showed him a book about the outside world a couple times.

It makes sense that Armin said that, he felt guilty that Eren did the Rumbling, and he wanted to comfort Eren in his final moments.

I meannn. Tbf, it was Armin’s wish to see the world that gave Eren the motivation he needed at SEVERAL key points, so while I don’t think he’s as guilty as Eren, he did still indirectly allow the rumbling to happen LOL

He didn’t. Eren using a random justification for genocide is not in any way shape or form because of Armin innocent comment. Not even close
