The only moral of the ending is that you shouldn't half ass anything. Other than that the ending was complete shit and didn't make any sense. Not in terms of logic, not in terms of plot, bot in terms of themes. One year later I'm still amazed how Isayama managed to write an ending so bad in every way imaginable.
Im no philosopher, but I guess that a "flaw" of the utilitarianism is exactly what the Eldians experience since the first moment: in the perspective of the designated victim, the choice can seem arbitrary. If someone kills you, you wont see the fruits of your sacrifice. If someone does a bad act to you for a greater good but doesnt tell you, it will appear to you as an arbitrary cruelty. And even if you know it, its way harder to tell you that you dont have a right to rebellion, even if in the trolley and utilitarianism view it would mean to help the ones letting 5 people taken out. This is the fundamental conflict of the eldians and its exposed in the cave scene, where Eren understand how it could help everyone being eaten and desires so, until historia express her hostility toward this idea
Remember, eren at the end is not eren as we know it anymore, and eren as we know it is only because of the eren who isn't eren as we know it anymore. And eren as we don't know only do what he does because he has to, as in an imperative, he has no choice. He does it because he'll do it. Maybe it's all ymir's choice, but likely not even that.
Thank you Sir. Now my appreciation for this manga has 2 folded if not more.
1:22 Utilitarianism, which was most famously advocated by Kiritsugu Emiya
A underrated video with all the meaning of the word "Underrated". Thank you.

The video isn't related to the ending tho
@@anonymousye1715 , in the end of the video author mentions that he'll make a separate video discussing the rumbling.
@@ultramegadavidbowie6314 exactly, 'separate' video
You should check marks videos on AoT ending look at his perspective the ending was going.

I always thought utilitarianism was most advocated by machiaveli
What? No, Machiavelli's thing was political realism, not utilitarianism.
Hmm
