🔴Quick correction: 25:25 I said Levi is charging to get Eren, Erwin and Hange out, while he was only talking about Eren & Erwin. He asked about Hange earlier (and Erwin said he has no clue what's going on with their squad), but now he said they'd use whatever remains of Hange's squad as distractions while Erwin yoinks Eren. Think those 2 things jumbled in my brain. 😅

In Spanish, Connie's joke is just perfect. He says: "Si yo fuera Eren, podría decir que mi casa está que arde". It translates to "if I was Eren I could say that my house is on fire" but "mi casa" (my house) sounds the same as "Mikasa" and "está que arde" is also used to describe someone atractive. Basically, it sounds like "if I was Eren I could say Mikasa is hot".

I'd say sub is still better tho. My main reason with the dub is the translation. Having it end with "RAGE" instead of "FIGHT" (TATAKAE) is such a symbolically and thematically bad decision. "Fight" has a symbolic value in this show from Eren's quote of "if u dont fight u cant win so fight, fight, fight", it represent constantly moving forward, which erwin's speech and charge were all about. Changing it into "rage" because it *fits better phonetically* is a horrible decision

Levi always followed Ervin in the hope it would lead them to greatness. But his speech in the end tells him that levi doent have to follow him to acheive their dreams.

An interpretation for Eren’s titan being smaller than the buildings: Someone said that the entire story was narrated by Mikasa and/or Armin. But, because it’s been so long since the events take place, they misremember details (like the color of Eren’s eyes occasionally changing). Maybe, with his size constantly changing, it’s reflecting the scale of Eren when compared to the Colossal Titan, and he changes sized based on their perspective. Just an interpretation, not a fully fledged idea, just something cool.

In the time that will pass until we die, other forces and other commanders may take our place."

A subtle change in Erwin's speech in the dub has way more meaning in English than the transcription of the sub. In the dub Erwin says his soldiers push forward as opposed to rage in the sub. The push forward is a very American military ideology. If you look at an American soldier's uniform there is a flag on the right shoulder. However, if you look at it you will notice the blue plane with the stars are on the right side of the flag, and the flag is "backwards." That is very much intentional. The soldier's arm is the flag pole lofting the Stars and Stripes, and the soldier is advancing, pushing forwards so that the flag billows to the back of the soldier. That flag is being moved forwards as the soldier advances and it is shown by that flag patch forever in the billowing on the soldier's arm. That is why in the dub hits a little harder for English speakers. It is so subtle since it draws on an esoteric American military tradition that the vast majority of people whom never served in the American Armed Forces would over look.

I love the thematic exploration bit at the end. The juxtaposition of nihilism and anti-nihilism sits at the crux of AoT's overall extremely human and grounded message. "Give up on your dreams and die" followed by Erwin embodying that literally but also showcasing in his speech how we can rebel against the cruelty of the world. Only people who can acknowledge and cope with the reality of the world, thus being prepared to give up on their dreams and goals if life forces them to, and find beauty despite this are able to be truly free. Everything's going to be okay, because we are special for no other reason than the fact that we were born into the world. It saddens me to think sometimes how esoteric the show can be with stuff like this because this sort of message is unfortunately completely glossed over by majority of viewers, or even worse flattened into a doomerist nihilistic outlook that helps no one, specifically because the impact of the juxtaposition only works so well imo when you stress test the opposing view, i.e. emphasizing the shitty aspects of AoT's world and its characters, which often gives false impressions to readers and viewers.

"I'm making the choice. Give up on your dreams and die." This scene holds so much damn weight, dude. As you pointed out, Levi hid his face because he didnt want the visible shock on his face to be shown. Erwin didn't need to see that. He needed that stone cold face to give him the impossible order. The same impossible order Erwin has given his men time and time again and is was prepping to give for the last time. Erwins initial gasp followed by a smile means a lot too. I think he was seeing the irony of suddenly being the one that needed to be pushed over the ledge into the abyss of war, when hes been the one doing the pushing for so many years. I also think there was a level of pride in knowing that Levi was actively filling in the shoes Erwin was prepared to leave behind. Of the leader who would do whatever was required for the betterment of the mission. Thats why Erwin subtly refused the power of the Colossal Titan at Levi later on. That death - that monumental sacrifice he made along side the dozens of terrified soldiers accompanying him - was the purest ticket out of the hell that was war he could have ever had. To revoke that honorable retirement and place him back into the front of it all over again would have been a unique type of cruelty.

Thank you for making these analysis videos. By making them you perform the same action that I write about down below. Sacrificing your time to spread the message of AoT and this speech. I argue that this speech is the greatest speech ever given, due to it's attempt to solve the human condition. The show comes to the same conclusion most world religions come to "life is suffering." Erwin argues that life is the most valuable commodity there is and that it's value is not decreased by the inherent suffering. He argues that these soldiers will not die to nihilism. They must sacrifice these few lives for the utilitarian purpose of saving the lives of the living. They sacrifice the most valuable commodity in order to save people they do not know, whose wellbeing these soldiers do not benefit from. And yet they do so. By definition, this is an act of unconditional love. Erwin (and for that matter Isayama) argues in favour of the existence of the highest virtue within this cycle of hatred and perpetual war. The message for the viewer is: - to be grateful to be alive - that by enduring the suffering of life one may find meaning in the perpetual incremental improvement of life for all of us. - That both nihilism and the human condition are incorrect. - That we ought to love the people around us unconditionally. I hope we can all suffer a little less.

Ok I can see the dub va is amazing. But I have to point to a moment in Japanese that absolutely destroyed me (disclaimer, I'm not Japanese. Feel free to correct). Erwin always refers to himself as 私 (watashi), which can be seen as professional speech. During his sitdown with Levi when he says he wanted to see the basement however, he switches to 俺 (ore), which in this context is a lot more personal. His professional mask finally drops and he speaks from the heart to the one person he trusts above any other. It is him finally being true with himself and also him giving up on that dream. Watching that mask drop and the way OnoD voiced that is just beyond gorgeous. It's like we get to see just Erwin for the first time, as opposed to Commander Erwin Smith. I'm very sorry to the admittedly amazing English va, he is an absolute legend, but to me the Japanese just hits so much harder. The speech he gives as well. Absolutely beautiful. And the fact Levi tells him to die here is also a callback to No Regrets. He finally fulfills that promise. He did end up choosing when and where Erwin died. He may not have directly killed him (debatable considering the next episodes), but he chose for Erwin to die, just as he originally set out to do when he joined the scouts. It's beautifully tragic

Its a very strange decision, since it really isn't that hard to make it look like Mappas 3D titans, my only guess is that they wanted to make the collosal titan have a bit more "texture", like with the subtle texture they put over the 2D titans, but im not sure

Many thanks for this series!!! I resonate with the idea that sometimes words are just not enough to convey the meaning of our experiences, especially the ones deeply rooted into our sensibility. So I feel you did a great job at "simply" trying to put your thoughts and observations into words. Also, I really like the new additions in the format, it looks cool to me and makes it more personal. I'm looking foward to watching it evolve! 😁

This is kinda head cannon but I thought Erwin kept giving the speech as the got on the horses and it was just cut out

Man, I have such a visceral memory of sitting on the couch, mainlining these episodes and sobbing my heart out. MY EMOTIONS!!! This, combined with Armin's sacrifice and that heartwrenching CHOICE they had to make, i was a wreck afterwards. This is just peak fiction IMHO.

Absolutely beautiful commentary on Erwin’s death, no doubt your best work

With Zekes extreme intelect and control over the Beast Yeah barring the Founding and Warhammer titan (and the warhammer literally just because zeke has to come into ground spike through chest range to pull out the crystal with the user) Zeke is the strongest titan The only reason Zeke lost to Levi is because of the surprise factor as well as kevi being a monster in his own right

I don't care if it's a 10 hour video with multiple ad breaks, I would love to see an overanalyzing break down of "My Soldiers Rage" by you if you ever decide to make it!

I would comment on this part 31:45, but I actually have nothing left to say. I simply couldn't have said better. This is it. Period.

Yeah but the dubs (no matter the language) are kinda ‘cringier’ xd

Can't wait for next episode. Mine and probably many other people's favourite one of the entire anime. Sure the is Levi slaying the beast and Erwin's sacrifice, Floch's miracle-like survival and Marlo's death, but my highlight in the episode is Armin's sacrifice, Eren taking down the colossal and Hanji returning to help Mikasa finish Reiner off, BUT the music is insane there!

The lack of music in the beginning, almost gives you room to fill in with your own panic- there’s no music to tell you how scary this is and for a moment you are as helpless and unsure as every other man seeing this

That Demon Slayer walking clip was way longer than it needed to be, but you cant deny that it was still awesome

I dont get upset watching stuff very often. I acknowledge stuff or feel sadness or joy or those "Thor showing up in Wakanda" moments that make you cheer. That being said I legit cried when Erwin died. Crazy. A totally fictional 2D rendering of a person touched me to the point where his death deeply hurt. Its nothing short of briliant.

Amazing video analysing an amazing episode. The new style of video looks really quite nice as well!
@Britosedgar2 ай бұрын
I saw this episode several times, and it hits me every time... our sense of existence is synthesized in Erwin's speech. Give meaning to the sacrifice of the people who also fought and are no longer here.
