Hello guys.. damn gotta say this section has been really quiet and dull these past weeks, it usually gets like this after a weeks the manga hasn't came out. I suppose this is me trying to rev up the section. So please help me okay?
So today guys I'm gonna talk about something awesome. The show takes the time to let you get to know the “cannon fodder.” Almost every background loser has a face, a name, a personality, a goal… hell, does anybody remember Daz? God, I love that guy. Although I gotta say he is highly skilled with luck because to have survived multiple encounters with Titans is not an easy thing lol. Anyway if you guys don't remember whom I'm talking about its this guy:
Oh oops sorry I didn't mena to scare you guys I meant this image
Yes even Marco who acted tough was unable to survive the Titan's slaughter and in the end died a boring foddest death at which no one saw him die. pretty sad aint it? Now wanna know why I love him? Because Daz is that guy. He’s that sniveling, groveling coward in almost every anime action show that’s constantly there to remind the heroes (or the audience) how hopeless the fight is, how meaningless their sacrifices are in the face of their superior enemies. That guy is always there to throw out a snarky comment from within the middle of an anonymous crowd. The difference with Shingeki though is that that guy has a name. And that name is Daz. You probably don’t remember him; he doesn’t have much of an impact other than being a whiny coward. In fact, that’s the only thing he does. But I challenge you, next time listen and pay attention to when some ******* is complaining off in the background… because nine times out of ten, that ******* is Daz.
Why am I making such a big deal about this? Well, because most shows wouldn’t make the effort to give that guy a name and a face. Why should they? It’s just some bit role. Some anonymous voice destined to be punished with death for their cowardice and lack of faith. And yet, Shingeki wants you to feel the weight of that voice. The show wants you to be painfully aware of it, and of the fact that it could be extinguished at any moment. AoT wants you to know that guy‘s name. It wants you to know that that guy has dreams, hopes, fears, aspirations, even a family.
Now now I know Daz wants to have a family and all but looking at the way he is I don't think it would last that long. So now back to the main question, Is Daz still alive? last time we saw him he was standing next to Sasha Blouse when Erwin Smith gives a speech urging the 104th Training Squad members to join the Survey Corps. As he is not present in the group of trainees who join, he presumably opted for the Garrison instead meaning he was maybe there when they were hunting fore Reiner and Bertolt when they stole Eren. So what do you think of Daz as a character and do you think his "luck" has kept him to be alive, which is what I believe but still have no proof of it.

I’ve read a lot of reviews about this show; a common thread among them is that one of Shingeki‘s greatest strengths is the tangible sense of dread permeating every episode. You get the feeling that your favorite character is going to die at any second. And yet… the body count for named characters is actually pretty low by the end of the series. Not even Daz dies (though he kind of disappears after the first half of the season, so who knows?).
