Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
Eren treats existence itself as enough reason to want the world beyond confinement. The answer breaks the comfort of a dream that asks him to forget that desire.

Spoilers for Attack on TitanShow the scene
During the struggle for Trost, Armin tries to wake Eren from the refuge of a dream inside his Titan. Asked why he wanted to see the outside world, Eren answers with the fact of his birth. Chapter 14 becomes episode 12; the motif recurs later, but this page belongs to Eren’s answer in the Trost battle.
