This was a wonderful video. I never really compared how similar Erwin and Flock are when it comes to serving their country. It makes sense that Erwin dies when he does because in a way he died when the country was most unified. I can’t wait for your next video.
Brilliant insights, keep the videos coming! None of the concepts and questions that AoT poses are simple, but analysis of them is a great contribution to humanity as a whole (I know, big statement). Honestly perhaps if more people sat down to consider these concepts there would be more hope for humanity.
Yeah AOT was a tough one to write haha, Isayama made a real masterpiece of a show. I love making these videos because I think the ideas you can draw from them are really powerful. But thank you for the kind words I’ll keep moving forward 🤝
Floch did not love Eldia, he did not want to protect anything. He was power hungry after seeing Eren and wanted that power and wanted to be by Eren's side. He used the chaos of eren's departure and created the Yaegerists and rose to the top through manipulation and killed innocent people/fellow soldiers for literally no reason at all. All he wanted was power.
Do you read or watch series? Floch shows his loyalty for his country .typical ermikasa shipper only read aot for the ship this show talk about racism and cycle of hatred
heyo i just found your video and loved it. i'm glad to be your 998th subscriber! i never understood floch's thought process and his mindset until i watched this. i wish i was currently able to hone such a analytical and insightful mind that can breakdown concepts like these. i do have one question though. what separates eren from floch in the regards of his love for his country? sure, floch doesn't care about the people whereas eren does. but i feel like they are both the devils of paradis, right? so, what separates them?
Thank you for the nice comment and I’m glad you enjoyed the video! And sure I’ll be glad to make the distinction: While Eren and Floch are both share a similar philosophical framework (as expected since Floch is the leader of a group called the Yeargerists), I think the true difference lies in the shape it takes in the story. Eren clearly is a big advocate of freedom. And the reason why he does these atrocious acts is because these people in his eyes are restricting his freedoms. While Floch definitely cares about being free, I feel the main ideology guiding him towards the end of the show is one of nationalism. His highest priority in life is to make sure Eldia is prospering, and will even go as far as killing other eldians. Eren differs in this regard as freedom is his ultimate goal. I’m not sure if you’re caught up on AOT yet but in the most recent episode he explains why he hasn’t just taken away the titan shifters powers so nobody could stop him. So I guess to sum it all up, Floch really only cares about the freedom of eldia, but Eren’s view of a free world exists outside of his country. And this is why Eren doesn’t kill dissenters and Floch absolutely would if given his powers. Hope I laid this out clear for you and thank you again for the love!!
@@designingcrib that definitely helped, thank you! that definitely makes a lot of sense. and yeah im currently caught up in the anime haha! i find it interesting how one character is more morally convoluted than the other when they act on a smaller scale essentially (floch) compared to the entire world (eren). people view floch as more "corrupted" than eren, even when he's committing mass genocide. and they hate floch more than eren! i wonder whar that could mean as well. happy 1,000 subs! you deserve it man.
Such a good video man, I get a lot of compliments on my voice but I feel like yours is even better haha, loved hearing you talk about my favourite character Erwin too! Loved the comparison between him and Eren's attack on Marley, the parallels between Floch and Erwin never really occured to me either, brilliant video bro.
Out of curiosity, did you get any copyright claims on this? I tend to keep my clips super short but it makes it take SO long to edit, would be great to know if I can get away with using slightly longer clips
@@LessonsFromAnime Love! And yeah it’s tough I try to take one long clip and split it into a few sections and then scramble them. But some times you can get away with using a 30 second clip it’s all random tbh. Also finishing blue lock so I can watch your bachira video 💪🏾
@@designingcrib ahhhh I see, I'm gonna try being a bit more lenient with the clip length next time and see how it goes, currently I spend more time finding the right clip than anything else whilst editing

Thank you! And yes Commander Erwin’s death was a crucial turning point in AOT’s tone. It’s kinda like the patriotism died with him.
Goated video/analysis . King floch
This means a lot thank you 🧎
The true king of paradis....
Absolutely

Floch was right, and people's fragile feelings not liking this fact, doesn't make it any less of a fact
Floch did not love Eldia, he did not want to protect anything. He was power hungry after seeing Eren and wanted that power and wanted to be by Eren's side. He used the chaos of eren's departure and created the Yaegerists and rose to the top through manipulation and killed innocent people/fellow soldiers for literally no reason at all.
