    If you think about it, The Attack Titan is probably the little will of Ymir to rebel against King Fritz, but because she's too attached to him (Stockholm Syndrome), she just couldn't do it by herself, that's why she gives the successor of The Attack Titan a will to free her (Eren Jaeger) 2000 years later, hence why The Attack Titan goal is to seek freedom (for her) and never obeying the self-righteous king

    Protagonist does not mean “the good guy”. Protagonist just means the main person the story is focused on. Antagonist doesn’t mean “the villain”. The antagonist is the character opposing the protagonist. It just so happens in this anime/story, the protagonist has characteristics people would consider dark/bad/evil. That’s what makes Eren such a complex protagonist and AOT so unpredictable

    Rob is speaking straight facts. For all Eren knows, the entire world wants to see the annihilation of his people. He's been through the worst pains imaginable, an animal backed into a corner with no other options. Eren is justified in his actions given the knowledge and perspective he's gained through the series. As a viewer, we have more information than he does, so you could argue he's morally apprehensible for the rumbling. However, the same argument does not hold for Eren.

    Edit: I am NOT defending eren, or anyone. I think everyone is wrong. But eren knows (and has known) he is. And that’s what make his character writing and stance/viewpoint that much more heartbreaking and storytelling. But to reiterate, every side in this anime (yeagerists, eldians, marley) are wrong - and that’s what makes this anime so amazing and complex. you can say right and wrong is subjective, but ultimately there is always mutually correct rules or morals in life.

    I think one of the biggest reasons as to why I'm still Team Eren, regardless of what is about to happen with the rumbling, is that even after everything that happened to them in the previous seasons, they tried multiple methods to achieve a peaceful ending. If I remember correctly, Paradis Island tried sending letters to the outside world as a symbol of raising the white flag saying that they don't wish to fight anymore and would rather the 2000 year long war come to an end. However, Marley didn't want to accept that peaceful ending and sent the message back saying they don't care esssentially. Understandably, it'd be hard to trust Paradis not to launch an attack with the power that they were in possession of so you can give them that. In Part 1 of this season though, Eren - whilst knowing the future - was hopeful that perhaps they may change their minds and chose to go undercover for the big announcement which resulted in the Declaration of War. The outside world is so bent on going along with Marley's ideals of prolonging Paradis' suffering for sins they didn't even commit themselves. The world really forced Eren to play this card which was only ever going to be the last resort if all else failed - which it did. If the entire world was coming after a small island of people who knew nothing of their past until recently, despite their peaceful efforts, I see no other way for Paradis to come out of this alive. You could argue that Eren was the one that influenced Marley's decision to go along with this final offensive attack but Paradis' end was inevitable and was going to eventually come around in time. This is evident when Marley sent Reiner and everyone else to infiltrate and attack the island. It's messed up but Eren's really trying to protect this little island that the world is trying to eradicate with what they have left which is unfortunately the deadliest option of all. It's no mercy from here on out

    Some neat trivia about this episode. The creature that attached itself to Ymir’s spine resembles/is designed after an ancient organism called Hallucigenia, which lived around 500 million years ago, during the Cambrian period (and discovered in the Burgess Shale, Canada). The location itself is kinda symbolic because the Burgess Shale is sorta considered an "Origin of Life" in terms of its archaeological significance, thanks to the vast records of biodiversity preserved in it, which lead to the majority of life forms that exist today on the planet. So one can say Ymir "made contact" with the "Source of Life” in a symbolic sense, like Eren Krueger hypothesized back in Season 3 of the anime.
    This episode also had a lot of Norse mythology imagery and inspiration. In addition to the mythological Ymir being the first Jötunn and ancestor of all Jötnar (i.e. giants/titans), the Hallucigenia-like creature likely also symbolizes Níðhöggr, the dragon/serpent/wyrm who knaws at the roots of the world tree Yggdrasil (which is represented by the giant tree Ymir falls into and later on “The Paths” that connect all Eldians). Also Ymir’s Titan powers later splitting into the 9 Titan shifter powers is also a likely reference to the 9 Realms in Norse mythology that the world tree Yggdrasil maintains. Also the ancient Eldians seem to resemble Norse/Vikings in terms of their design (with the ancient Marleyans resembling Romans).
    Also the Wall Titans won’t just be killing all humans outside of the island of Paradis, they will also end up destroying the majority of all other life (flora and fuana larger than microorganisms) as well, which is a huge ecological/environmental disaster to the Biosphere in general (which admittedly is partially something that Isayama himself likely didn’t fully appreciate/consider when writing the story as well).

    • @steak5038

      Nah the Flora and Fuana are fine. Remember way back in season 1 when Eren half shifted to protect Mikasa and Armin from the cannons?

Even if one wanted to concede that maybe the trampled soil left behind could be considered fertilized, that’s still killing nearly every single type of animals and plant that are larger than microorganisms. And while microorganisms are the most important in regard to the biosphere, killing all organisms larger than them would still devastate the biosphere’s ecological health in general.

    The thing people don't understand about aot is that NO ONE is evil or good, eren isn't evil, buts he's also not good. same with Mikasa, Armin, Zeke etc. you also don't need to kill someone to be considered either. People keep saying wether eren is evil or not but he literally isn't either of them. Aot isn't a traditional shonen anime, eren isn't a traditional shonen character. Shonen animes and main characters see the world black and white, (friendship saves the day bs) eldians are the white and everyone else is the black, no. This anime shows the world is grey. eren from season 1-3 saw the world and acted like the world was black and white and he was the good guy and anyone to appose him was a bad guy. Now he sees everything for how it is, i bet he even doesn't think of himself as a hero or a bad guy.

Loosing loved ones, being slaves to despotic rulers, sacrificing yourself and your loved ones for the satisfaction of their interests, course Ymir, and Eren 2000 years later, were going to react when being subject to an act of unprovoked violence?
    Eren's course of action was the only one to take, just like Rob said.

    Everyone is forgetting that there was a plan to use a partial Rumbling to intimidate the world in order to give Eldia enough time to form diplomatic relationships with other nations because of their resources.
    Eren rejected that plan because it meant Historia would have to have kids and the Founding Titan would have to be passed down for a few generations. Historia was on board for this plan for her people and even still went and got pregnant. Instead of a possible peaceful solution, Eren went with global genocide.

That will only further prove to the world how much more of a threat paradis really is and the more reason why they need to be destroyed.
      After the kings warning they waited for years and still attacked..same will happen if they partial rumble.They will keep sending eldian warriors as spies to steal the founding
      or advance weaponry to attack..which will be them against the world

  • @mariokim4485
    @mariokim4485 2 роки тому +11

    This is the most realistic theory about Eren and his titan right now. (i say theory because it hasn't been confirmed 100% but i believe its like 95% true.) Because the Attack Titan has the power to view the memories of it's future inheritors, it has the ability to convey and sway one's actions into a certain direction. Eren had a strong sense of freedom ever since he was born (this is where it gets a bit confusing) using the Founding Titan's ability to connect to the subjects of Ymir, Eren set his will and sent it to every single Attack Titan inheritor to ensure that he will receive the Attack Titan in the present we know. (An example of this is when Eren used Zeke and the founding titan ability to appear in the memory with Grisha so that Eren can convince him to steal the founding titan.) Hence the reason why the Attack Titan "fights for freedom" is because Eren instilled his will in all the inheritors of the Attack Titan. The founding titan is not bound by time so ever since Eren was born, future Eren already planned out everything. That is why this future is determined and unchanging, this is the only future that is possible because if not it will create a paradox in time and Grisha would never be on Paradis Island because Eren Kruger wouldn't have fought against Marley for the freedom of Eldians.)

She did nothing for her people other than conquer. Her mind was corrupt but her heart was still pure. That’s the type of shit nice people are until they snap. Be nice long enough to see yourself turn into a slave and conditioned. She really didn’t know how far she could go as a person. She has no identity to herself. That’s the literal tyranny and what slavery could do to a person even remain loyal to guy pulling the strings. No sense of rational thought other than trying escaping the punishment that may come from the master. In the name of survival and not getting beat you will do anything.

Eren is the one killing everyone else so that only Eldians exist meaning everyone is equal again, since everyone can become a Titan.

Multiply all of that by how many Eren has inherited so far.. The founding Titan, the attack titan, and the war hammer.
