After the giant's 139th episode, "Allen killed his mother", "Mikasa hand blade Allen", "I got a green card for my friend" and these sharp turning complexes are difficult for most fans to accept. The so-called sea is the enemy, the sea is the clown! Alan suddenly became a paradoxical atypical character. The story of the giant also seemed absurd. Then Alan went green! Mikasa is married! The island of Pa has fallen! Since the release of the extra page after the 139th chapter of the giant, this kind of mourning has reverberated in the world of giant fans. More imaginative friends, add drama to Ma Mian Arang, and embellish some condiments at the end of such a battle as a giant. There are also attempts to give the giant a nihilistic, militaristic label. These discussions that deviate from the plot, in addition to making the shocked audience stop thinking, as the noise when leaving the theater, may be a comfort for the fans to try to dispel the absurdity of the giant's ending. However, when we try to actively imagine a different 139 words from Isayama-sensei, the result is probably even more boring. It is nothing more than Alan overpowering the Save the World Team, Mikasa, Reiner and others, who have leveled the world, and created a new century of Eldia global domination by one person, while Yemen and Volunteers in Parady Island How to deal with the contradictions between the soldiers, the original corps organization, and the Queen's court forces, as the Ackerman Mikasa and the captain in the Save the World team, the honorary Marais Reiner, Pique and Yani Gai to Ellen Gai What's your attitude, and how do you deal with the remaining citizens of the old world? These problems are all complex and bleak. Replacing Marai with a new Marai called the Erdian Empire seems to be the easiest path. Facing the vast conquest area, it is conceivable to resume a more brutal and hypocritical rule for the next two thousand years, not wanting to repeat the mistakes of the royal family being overthrown and withdrawing to an isolated island, but also to preserve the freedom of the Eldian people. If this is the case, Allen's so-called freedom is nothing more than an incarnation of King Fritz and another two thousand years of sadomasochism with Ymir. None of this is something people who want to move on with their lives should face. If Aaron goes his own way and leads the Yeager faction to conquer the world, this character will become a dominatrix, and the giant will be reduced to a second-rate Shuangwen level. In fact, when things developed to Diming, everything was too late. As Armin asked at a certain moment, does it have to be this way? "We" have no other options. In fact, Armin made a fundamental mistake about who "we" are. This is also a mistake that all people with various Eldian identities make all the time, never knowing who they are. Let's follow Armin's question and imagine for a while, and everyone will understand why the Eldians have basic cognitive problems. There are several versions of the definition of the Eldians for different factions. The first is the version of the royal family. As the orthodox of the Aldian Empire, they once led the Aldians to commit countless crimes. Now they have repented and brought some people to Parady Island to clear the memory of the people in the wall. They The Aldians who identify with them are the people in the walls of Parady Island, the last human beings in the world. For them, living in the world is victory, and there is no right or wrong. Under the royal family is entitled to a brief wall of happiness, and the castaway remnants of the Old World are not. The second is Marai's version. Marai believes that all the people who can become giants are the Eldians, forming the definition of racism, and then adding a demon Ymir and his people and the hero Holos. The typical historical narrative of both sides makes the rationality of the domination of the concentration camps. The third is the version of the Restorationists represented by Grisha Yeager, who invented another set of pioneering Ymir and subversive Holos for the enslaved Marais concentration camp society and Marais' demonic people narrative. A set of typical narratives that justify the rebellion against the rule of the Marais concentration camp. The fourth is the version that Ellen got from Ymir. Among the people enslaved by King Fritz, a girl accidentally gained power. She invaded for the royal family, built it for the royal family, reproduced for him, and she In the end, she was divided among the three daughters of King Frieze. The reason why she did not resist was because she fell in love with the king. Therefore, Ymir is the mother of the Eldians, the royal family is the cancer of the Eldians, and the Eldians are all tortured by the royal family. The freedom of the Eldians has a long way to go. Making Ymir freed from the power of giants and the rationality of his responsibilities. All Aldians are cross-infected by these versions of the narrative, dizzy, killing and gnawing at each other, busy creating hatred, and busy creating identity. And most of the decisions made are still utterly stupid. After scavenging the giants on the island, the Parade Islanders by the sea experienced the world on a relatively accurate scale for the first time, but their conception of the world was still a binary structure cast by blood and tears. Taking Alan as a typical example, in his limited experience, at the earliest stage, he believed that there were humans inside the walls and giants outside the walls. In the world, only the people in the walls of Parady Island were the protagonists. At this time, he had a wall appointed by the royal family. Chinese recognition. After the giant wall was broken, Alan, who was born from the giant's mouth, felt his own weakness, and the world seemed to devour him at any time. However, with the exposure of the Marais trio, the revelation of historical secrets by the coup d'etat in the walls, and the emergence of material in the basement, Allen, along with most of the Parade Islanders, realize that beyond the walls is far more complex , relative to the larger world, the concept of the community in which it is located also begins to be updated to Grisha's version of the Restoration. However, their cognitive structure still maintains the old ideological binary narrative, and their subconscious positioning of the weak is even stronger. Allen said to Armin at the seaside, "The other side of the sea is the enemy." This exposed his cognition. In fact, there are many countries on the other side of the sea, the most recent country is Marais, the Eldians of Marais are enslaved by Marais of Marais. The giants on the island were also Eldians. But Allen could not change his perception of the binary structure for a while. It is this structure that fatally affects the fate of Parady Island. When the people of Parady Island began to contact the world outside the island, it was also when the ideology created by Allen’s father released from the basement began to be influenced. The incendiary narrative created by the oppressed and enslaved concentration camp society of the Aldians, and the countries of the world are in a state of being intimidated by the giant war of Marais. The two-phase effect made the newcomers of Parady Island unconsciously carry a huge burden named Eldia in the process of contacting the outside world, and were actually forced to be implicated in the actions of the enemy Marais. Although the main body of the crime is the Eldian in the blood sense, as Arang said to Jiabi, why should today's people be affected by what happened two thousand years ago? In fact, what he wants to say is that those Ai The matter of the Aldians, why am I, the Paradis, affected. Because the popular anti-Aldian history was invented by the Marais, and the giant war using the Aldians was also fought by the Marais. Marais superb united front technology of one and two sides made the people of Paradis just leave the island. At a diplomatic disadvantage. People are always easily incited, and the deep sense of isolation of the Paradis people creates a strong desire for violence, and with a layer of Yeager's national narrative, it becomes an ideology that can make people want to bleed. Allen is a direct beneficiary of this set of materials. He got the rationality of using ultimate violence directly from this set of things. In his mind, the Greater Eldia overwhelmed the Little Eldia, that is, the recognition of the Pan-Eldia overwhelmed the Eldia Empire's Identification, also overwhelmed the identification of Parady Island. For the freedom of Ymir, which he thought was the freedom of all Eldians, he first betrayed the military government, then the Survey Corps, then the Volunteers and his brother, and finally came a dragon with remorse. Chosen Ran and the Yeager faction chose the former, that is, betrayed the Yeager faction. Allen's continuous risky actions and repeated betrayals, at the expense of countless people, used personal power to temporarily remove the power of giants from the Eldians, in exchange for a kind of physical redemption. This freed Ymir. The brief moment of freedom when he personally becomes the ancestor and destroys everything is indeed too tempting for a child who should have nothing in the wall. And every Parade Islander around him who was confused and failed to change his route in advance was a victim of a stupid dualistic cognitive structure. % The Eldians are a nation that lacks an elite. The Eldians outside the wall were enslaved by foreigners, and they belonged to the natural proletariat. Although they could form an underground party organization, the national revolution theorists could only be born from a family of small intellectuals like Yeager. And because of the historical and political level of Grisha Yeager's half-bottle of water, he chose the most reliable construction method of confrontation under limited conditions. Pushed Grisha to the position of leader. This determines that their organizational ceiling is not high, and it is difficult to build a new community around it. It turned out that they could not last a generation. Grisha, the inventor of the new Eldian nation, even failed to unite his own sons, and neither of the two sons ultimately agreed with his empire-building. They are all forced to take a broken ship built by their father, and on the isolated island where it ran aground, each looking for materials to build an ark that can sail to the real deep sea. Grisha is a typical little intellectual. At the same time, as a man with some power, it is inevitable to cause tragedy. Especially after the horrific death of Allen's biological mother, after all his comrades and his wife have become inhuman, Grisha Yeager can still use the same ideal as a reason to support his life in a new country for ten years, Allen On the day that Grisha left home, she was turned into raw food by Grisha's ex-wife of a giant. Although it was Alan's inexplicable design just looking at chapter 139, I'm afraid it's only Ymir who can abuse Wang for two thousand years. A bridge that a woman can only come up with. The leaders of the royal family of Eldia within the wall are even a group of fake elites. They were conquerors of the vast empire in the past. After they were corrupted and overthrown by the nations they once conquered, they fled to the island and even an ideology that counterattacked the mainland. If it can't be produced, it is even more terrifying that it has lost the basic desire to survive, and just wants to survive and enjoy the last days in the wall. In this way, the royal family who did not choose to confront became the tyrants of Parady Island, and all they did to Parady Island were negative constructions, eliminating history, absorbing resources, and weakening the whole to maintain itself. In the end, Parady Island, which had to be revolutionized, could only organize a simple military government. This group of revolutionaries was not united. The three regiments had little to do except against the royal family's position. Materials for building new communities. The military government rejected the aristocracy, and because of the natural affinity of the class, the Revolutionary Pioneer Survey Corps was a group of proletarians who had lost their homes and were already homeless. Losing social ties with nobles and the church, the new government has to use the royal family's legacy of credibility to maintain its rule. These revolutionaries have absolutely no national invention ability and are desperate for theoretical guidance. Grisha Yeager's old materials have been properly discovered, and the new government composed of this class has directly opened the door to the populism of the world. . Things got worse. If you really want to find a point where things can get better, it's the time of the recapture of the Maria Wall. Erwin of the Survey Corps can update their status in the new government through this battle. With his ability, he might be able to take a new path. In the end, he was spared by his soft-hearted subordinates at the last moment from this cruel world. In purely political terms, it is mean and paranoid, Levi is responsible for many things. At first, after he saved Allen from the mainland army forces, he obviously lacked control. After Allen made a foul move, he would only lock him up, exposing the lack of leadership wisdom. Levi cannot distinguish between his loyalty to Erwin and his personal feelings. Although he is positioned as an executor, many tactics are not constructively helpful to Erwin at all. Trust expects the head of the regiment to take all responsibilities and lead the most powerful self out of the predicament. Influenced by his uncle, that is, indirectly influenced by the previous generation of King of the Wall, Levi had a Zen-like trance at the last moment of this battle, which made his knife also slow, and he was not in the first place. Killing Gek in a confrontation didn't make it hard enough to let Erwin take on the most suitable responsibility for him. As an Ackerman, he was born a natural Paradish, rejecting any form of Eldian identity. However, it failed to make due contributions to the construction of the Parade Island nation. Although the sons of the petty intellectual Grisha felt that their father's national invention had little appeal and were unwilling to follow their father's path, their own invention ability was even worse. On the contrary, their inherited ambitions and passions became more and more surging. The two sons are less politically capable than their father, and one is more of a joke than the other. Ellen is commenting too much, isn't Gek a clown too? When the clown Grisha was active in the underground, he forcefully forced his children to bear the dual mission of Marais and himself. Because of his poor national invention level, he failed to unite his son from Marais' basic education. As a child who failed to meet the requirements of his parents, Jike resolutely betrayed his original family and the organization he was born in after feeling the lack of warmth from his original family. After he killed his mother and parents' comrades, he became more relaxed and happy than ever. And after gaining the power of the beast giant, he set off in the name of Marai to carry out the plan that his father had always wanted him to implement. After meeting Alan, knowing what the result of bringing his younger brother back to Marais, he somehow felt a sense of responsibility called salvation. The people who should have died long ago, after using poisoning and other means to mutilate countless people, came up with a castration plan, wanting to lead most of the Eldians who couldn't understand the situation at all to atone for their sins. In the end, he was defeated by his younger brother with another set of things less absurd than him, and greeted the long overdue death. It can be said that Jike is the person with the most chaotic identity relationship among the main characters, and has been his own violent conspiracy show all his life. The seemingly perfect counter-offensive plan offered by the volunteers was too tempting for the junta after the Paradis came into contact with the volunteers. However, people in this leadership generally lack the prudent political habits of the old royal family and aristocrats. After judging that Marais is an enemy, they naturally empathize with the volunteer soldiers who claim to have a common enemy. They were eager to accept them easily. The survey corps lacking Captain Erwin was a group of adventurers who were not to be seen inside and out. In the early days of the off-island activities, the military experts encountered diplomatic difficulties. At this time, Gek's claim to contact the ancestors to launch the Diming plan turned out to be the only alternative. Parade Islanders are forced to cooperate with the forces that carried out insane violence against them years ago. Driven by his strong desire for revenge and perverted ambition, Allen unilaterally urged the surprise attack on Malee. Because the victory of the Marais Raid was overwhelmed, the high-level officials lost their basic judgment, and only half of Levi chose to temporarily control Gek out of emotional choices. Ordinary Parady Islanders don't understand the castration plan at all, and they just want to fight against the whole world for safety, just like when there are giants on the island, and they want to fight against all existences other than themselves at all costs. Alan entered the route set by his brother Jike through them, and walked step by step to the final road. Giant is a good reflection. If we seriously examine history, the real world may often be more absurd than works of art. Even though Grisha is a failed inventor, no one can replace him in those jobs. This is the so-called mission. If Mikasa, an Ackerman, was caught up in the torrent of the era dominated by the Eldians, and cut off the head of Eren, who became the ancestor, with a knife, it would be her destiny that she could not escape. It also proves that she broke free from immature love and chose the former between the vast world and a special and powerful person who does not love herself so much, which is actually another redemption for Ymir. In fact, he chose reason and bid farewell to some kind of ecstasy. Life always has to go on. Sometimes facing the painful status quo requires first and foremost mental effort. After all, no one can predict what will happen in the future. The terrifying monsters at the moment have to be dealt with first before making plans. Giant is a good reflection.
