Another thing about the epidemic that Grisha cured is that he's probably the reason the disease spread through Paradis. Since he came from Marley, he likely brought a bunch of germs the people of Paradis' immune systems weren't accustomed to.

@adolfodef 3 месяца назад

Brilliancy! -> The "Perfect Health" of Titan Wielders is because they are un_human enough for it to be unable to "progress", but it also means any disease they may get simply "stays" with them potentially forever [they are also the perfect carriers]. . Because he was not exposed to anyone from Marley AFTER eating Jaeger, he only had some random, minor, "fever virus" he contracted while in the boat that brought them to Paradis Island. -> His later wife never contracted any serious S.T.D. because his previous wife was each other´s first love. . By sending young teenager Titans Wielders to Paradis, they managed to avoid spreading the more "lasting" types of infectious diseases. The exception to this are precisely those 2 who never physically interacted (at least with their real human bodies) with the rest of the ones who survived. -> The "troops" that provided logistic support to Zieke never breathe the same air than the people of Paradis who would continue to live. . By the time Eren saw the sea... it did not mattered anymore (since they would also be accessing all the technology & knowledge of medicine; possibly including vaccines).

This just makes it all the better that Carla died in episode 1. If Carla represents Eren's peaceful side and Grisha Eren's rageful side, then Carla's elimination represents Eren losing his inner peace forever. From the very start of the series, Eren was set to ruin or be ruined. We just didn't know immediately at what scale.

@angelamengualcortinas3614 3 месяца назад

Carla's speech is one of the highlights of the series and it makes what happens next so much more tragic. Eren never let go of his dreams of grandeour and for that he became the enemy of humanity, forever trapped in an endless repetition of his live while being in the Founding. A bystander of his own story.

Wdym no coincidence? It’s a story. Not real life.

@maintrain527 3 месяца назад

@@ExpertContrarian The Yeagerists' ideology is the antithesis of the Scouts in almost every way. Isayama could've just made the old Scouts join the Yeagerists since it's "a story" but he didn't, not just because he didn't want them to but because it would make no sense considering everything that came before it.

@ExpertContrarian 3 месяца назад

⁠@@maintrain527 no, the only reason he doesn’t have them join them is because he decided that they should be the bad guys which means the main cast cannot join them. Fighting for your life and for the rest of your people is not antithetical to the Scouts. Killing your own people and teaming up with the people that want to genocide your kind is antithetical to the scouts. What they decided to do makes no sense with the rest of the story. You literally have it backwards. You having such a bad take and media literacy is not very surprising know when you didn’t even understand the meaning of my comment.

This flashback is one of the chapters that Isayama personally likes because he believes his writing matured, and after all, who wouldn't agree? This chapter/episode intertwines and touches upon so many other details and themes that resonate throughout the rest of the series that the only sensible definition for it is a work of art. Especially considering that it deals with mundane storytelling, addressing ordinariness, and yet touches on themes like destiny, the value of life, the vanity of greatness, the tragic irony of this... damn, I'm left speechless and can only cry at how sublime it is every time I watch it. By the way, regarding Historia, I personally see her marriage to the farmer as a parallel to her father's story, who also loved someone of lower social class but couldn't marry because of it. Historia being able to do this ends up being a form of her emancipation and also explores the theme that children should not pay for the sins of their fathers.

You still were able introduced me to perspectives on the show and ways analying certain charscter motivations that I had never considered prior.

@TheAnimeMangaClub2121 3 месяца назад

I recently just read and watched Bystander, and it was SO good. I really like the way they gave depth to Shadis as a character and the theme they explored. I like the way he realizes that not everyone will be “special” in the way they hope to be, and how you won’t always or even might never succeed in what you strive for, at least not you yourself in every case, where others may succeed instead. The way he was compared to Erwin made me feel bad for Shadis And the way it comes back around to Eren and even Historia to me if they are necessarily “special” or just a vessel is cool. Historia believes she can be the true ruler of the walls and not just because she’s the last of the Reiss family to take over, but because she is willing to do the duty of a soldier for her people head on and help others, even if it was to show the people that she can fight too so they’ll follow her. Eren on the other hand begins to believe he isn’t special, but how he will do his part to carry out his duty and goal for humanity and his friends Honestly, Bystander is one of my favorite chapters and episodes I’ve seen and read so far in AOT. Loved your video btw. I love all your videos on AOT, you do a great job analyzing and make it so fun and entertaining to watch!

@RedGiantStar_5718 3 месяца назад

Regarding the curse of Ymir for Grisha, I don't think that is a plothole since he inherited his power in the year 832 add 13 years and that equals 845 his time limit to pass it to Eren.

@joaquinalvarez7501 3 месяца назад

Me over analyzing the over analysis I would say Grisha holding the attack titan for 15 years is a huge plot point. It demonstrates that shifters can infact live passed those 13 years but it's through the curse of humanity that those who know williningly let the cycle continue instead of trying to break it in fear of what could happen next. Cause even at the end of the series it's not the titans that are the destruction of Paradi but humanity alone. If we could see passed the fear humans and titans could've co inhabited the world but that is the curse humans live with

This is an amazing episode! My favourite from the whole series, pretty similar with the story from Blade Runner 2049, which made me a bit biased. But I'm a sucker for a story that focuses on a character that is not meant to be the chosen one, and Keith also acknowledges it, and yet he did the best he could, for the world. There is a powerful lesson in that.

I think the over arcing point of the Attack on Titan ends up being hope. Everything, every painful loss, every horrible disaster always heralds a sense of hope for a brighter future. The failed mission to catch Female Titan carried hope as we learned enough to find Annie and corner her. The bleak death charge of Erwin and the new scouts heralds the hope of destroying the beast, finding the basement and learning the truth. Even the ending. The destructive chaos of the Rumbling heralds the release of the titan curse to herald the hope of a brighter future. Even if the war, the pain, and suffering does not end. It heralds room for the hope and joy of, if nothing else, a temporary peace. A time when people are safe.
