Crossover in the Anime World

Yeager felt both lucky and unfortunate to meet Duran, because he had already committed an unforgivable sin. Before coming to his son to inherit his power, he had killed a group of innocent people, the youngest of whom was only ten years old. So after being excited, Yeager quickly cooled down, like a deflated balloon.

Originally, Yeager was planning to pass on his power to his son, so that his sins would be over, and the disputes between the Eldians, the Titans, and the Marais would have nothing to do with him, but this time Duran appeared. .

The expression on his face changed quickly. Dulan saw it clearly and knew that Yeager had killed someone not long ago, including women and children, so he had a hard time with his conscience.

The world is like this. The development of any matter has two sides. Even the protagonist does not have the best choice when making a choice. They are all two-sided and opposite. It can be said that this is the case for every event.

The most basic thing is to defeat the giant, but you have to rely on the giant. Then there is corruption at the top, but the top management has a trump card against the giants. Another example is Yeager. He wanted to fight against the Marais, but the Marais dominated propaganda. Another example is that the outside world hates the Eldians, but the Eldians themselves are slaves.

It can be said that the entire world is full of contradictions, and the task of the protagonist group is to choose a path among a large number of contradictions. As for what is at the end of this road, no one knows.

When fighting, the enemy is his former teammates and the person who hurt him the most. When it comes to making a choice, choosing your own path will leave you with nothing to lose, while choosing the path of a high-level person will lead to a lot of bones.

Without God's perspective, any choice is so difficult, and the enemy's thinking is even more difficult to understand. The protagonists don’t know what to do to change all this. Even the freedom the protagonist pursues is wrapped in contradictions. If you practice your own freedom, you must trample on the freedom of others.

In order to take revenge, and because he saw the memory of the future successor, Yeager decided to seize the power of the Founding Titan, and also decided to end his own life, so that the future Attack Titan could continue to fight and create. Although he didn't know if his son could do it, Yeager believed in him.

"Being a human being is really contradictory sometimes, isn't it?" Dulan observed Yeager's face and knew that he was trapped in a spiral of contradictions: "Obviously he has good intentions, but he always hurts others. It is obvious that this world is so abnormal, but everyone But we take it for granted. Everyone knows that change should be made, but no one can propose a way. It is really contradictory to want freedom but trample on the freedom of others."

These words spoke to Yeager's heart. Duran was indeed a man who saw everything clearly. No wonder he could think that the best way to eliminate the hatred between the Marais and the Eldians was to eliminate the blood barrier and find a way to eliminate the hatred. Create a social order that does not rely on blood. Now he points out that the world is full of contradictions, which really makes Yeager feel excited. Knowing that there are people like Duran in the world who are working hard, he can die with peace of mind.

However, Dulan thought that the biggest contradiction in the world was actually the contradiction between backward material life and advanced humane education. Obviously everyone is running out of food, and they may be eaten at any time, and the average life expectancy is very low, but people in their teens and twenties think about the preciousness of life, the weight of friendship, and the human nature all day long. The value of life.

Not only the people in the Corps are considering it, but also the murderers.

In an era of great change, it is understandable to feel dissatisfied with the world, and it is also possible for young people to resist and reflect on this. However, changes in ideas require the infusion of vitality from external ideas, but the evolution of the protagonist's ideas within the high wall is completely endogenous, and has not absorbed the ideas of Giant and Marais for digestion, which is very inconsistent.

After all, this country has been closed off for more than a hundred years, and education and technology have been curbed. Where did the protagonist Tuan’s value concept of putting human life above all else come from? If according to the scientific concept of development, the economic base determines the superstructure, there is no soil for the development of the idea that human life is as important as heaven within the high walls.

After all, in the general concept within the high wall, human life is just a bargaining chip, and the top management does not care about human life, while ordinary people cherish their own lives but do not care about the lives of others. In theory, in this environment, new ideas must be injected to awaken young talents. After all, in an environment where you work hard every day and will die if you don't work, who can be hungry and think wildly all day long?

But in fact, there are no new ideas injected into it. The values ​​​​of the protagonist group are completely endogenous. They appear in the minds of young people who are trained every day to fight to the death. After a hundred years of numbness, the Eldia Empire is torn apart. A crack opened.

Of course, it is indispensable that those in power agree with the protagonist's values. The leader of the Survey Corps agrees with the protagonist's choice. Because they all believe that human life is precious, and no one tells them why. Maybe it is just a gift from heaven. After all, it is a fantasy world.

It is impossible for ordinary people to have the strength to think again after a lot of physical training, but the protagonist group is not subject to the constraints of science. Even if they are malnourished, they will continue to think and break the limits of human beings.

"I know you killed someone, but the Reyes family is already a backward force that hinders human development. It is natural for them to be eliminated. Will it make you feel better if I say this?" Duran said.

"Those are human lives, and children." Yeager said painfully.

"Just be careful next time," Duran said.

Yeager was stunned: "How can you say that?"

"What can I say? After the wall is broken, the main contradiction is the contradiction between human survival and the invasion of external giants. All mankind should work hard for this main contradiction. Whoever is lagging behind will fall behind, and then it can only be eliminated. But this You hit a little too hard this time, so be careful next time." Duran said, of course he was thinking that according to the spiral law of contradictions in this world, when a group of people are pronounced as backward reactionaries, these people must also have something to hide. Then the protagonists have to make a choice, because choosing to develop will inevitably involve giving up something valuable.

And some people may even speak for the nobles, saying that it is not the nobles who are truly backward, but these nobles are only superficial, and there are reasons behind the appearance. Eliminating the nobility will not solve the fundamental problem.

The world is like this. When a force is regarded as a villain, it will immediately make it difficult for the villain to hide something. In this way, it will be difficult to grasp the main contradiction. If you cannot grasp the main contradiction, it will be difficult to solve the fundamental problem.

Duran said that the Reyes nobles were a backward force, which was not entirely correct, because they also wanted to kill the giants, but the king who inherited the power to turn the tables was affected by force majeure and forgot his mission, so the Reyes family did not take the blame.

You don’t even need to bow and apologize, just say that I was influenced and I’m not wrong.

That's why Duran's words were inaccurate, and that's why Yeager was so excited: "They also want to expel the giants, but they can't do it. Reyes's family is also innocent, and they also have difficulties. Everyone is a good person."

"They are indeed not wrong subjectively, but objectively they are backward. Nowadays, the contradiction between population and food is so great, but the farms of the nobles are extremely huge, and their lives are extremely luxurious. Isn't that backward enough? And what I said is Being backward is not bad. Being backward does not mean being bad, so you have to figure it out." Dulan said: "Being bad is easy to detect because it directly damages the interests of others. Being backward is not easy to be detected because they are delaying in a subtle way. The development of the entire civilization, which ultimately leads to its destruction, is like boiling a frog in warm water."
