Even after he found Levi half-dead he still tried to finish him off and Hange. And this is something you can not give a blind eye and a pass.

Definitely one of best written characters I've ever seen. The way this character was introduced and developed is truly amazing. He was the only character without any selfish reasons behind his actions. Until the end defending his homeland. RIP to the real king of Eldia 👑

Honestly my 2nd favourite addition to the show from season 3 onwards after Zeke, his character was born from being a background character that survived & his motivations were created due to the main cast's actions. Definitely one of my favourites to watch.
The one who never betrayed his people, never sold his homeland & never abandoned his island to its disastrous fate. Duty, loyalty & honor. This was Floch Forster, the most realistic and pragmatic character in the show. From a coward & a crybaby, he became an Eldian leader & legend.
RIP King Floch👑 You have given your heart to Aldia and your death proves that you are a true soldier for your country My sincerity is highest and you are truly free🥲😔....
A king who stood still against the traitors who took sides with the killers of their comrades and people. How easy they forgot about their families and friends.
I love the way you compiled all these scene to show whats on Floch's mind all this time. He's the only one who carried the will of their fallen comrades. He's the real hero of Paradis
Floch is the one who really never gave up on Paradis. To love your country so much that murder of the entire humanity is nothing. He was the true King willing to sacrifice everything for his country. He is a true hero, a true king. He doesn't deserve the hate
@@harisanyu5629 When everyone was going full generic shounen during the Rumbling this man stayed true in wanting Paradis to survive and thrive. Floch is a heavily traumatized teenager veteran who is trying to ensure that Erwin, Marlowe and his friends didn't die for nothing even if it means throwing away his humanity.
The only one who can save the Eldian Empire is you, Eren Jaeger. If Eren dies, Paradis will drown in a sea of blood. Our Devil... He is... our only hope. Floch Forster's words held truth and weight and it was a cruel truth that nobody wanted to hear or see. He narrowly avoided what should've been unavoidable death on several occasions all to defended his country, the island he was born and raised on with unwavering determination. Even when confronting his comrades, his enemies and overthrowing a corrupt and vulnerable government he stated the truth and nothing but the truth. He exclaims that he was nothing but fodder and that he was completely expendable which may have been the only time he was wrong because he was the last line of defense for Eren. He goes onto say that everyone has a right to decide if a cause is worth dying for and he fought and died for a cause he believed in. He was a hero right up to the moment he drew his final breath, and in the end when the world came crashing down on Paradis in retaliation, when those B2 spirit stealth bombers leveled the island to oblivion, Floch Forster was right. He was right.
There never was a good or bad ending. The whole premise of the show was always the grey. The Yeagerist are just a sacrifice to show us the moral ignorance we share as a species where we kill, mane, torture all in the name of justice freedom and righteousness when in reality, we all are just as fucking a shit hole as our enemies. The show ends with the fact that Erens genocide being stopped by the very people he loved and fought for brings forth a sense of impending unity in the mists of absolute destruction.
@@meritocratikThe boy ramzi stole because his family was poor, they were literally war refugees. Even eren Said They were in the same situation as eldians but you’re just biased. Floch is not a king for supporting genocide, and he never will. Cry about it.
@@subhankarray3657 I'd basically agree with this statement but one thing sticks out to me. The story's ending is based on perspective which happens because as you said the premise of the show is morally grey. The remaining 20% of the world's population didn't just retaliate and genocide Paradis Island out of revenge but also out of self proclaimed necessity, like a form of self defense. Which is the same reason behind why Eren and the Yeagerists condoned their actions with the Rumbling. If you look at the bombing of Paradis from a Marleyian standpoint it's viewed as a good thing but the Rumbling is a bad thing and vice versa with the Eldians on Paradis. And of course if you want to look at it from a more realistic perspective the United States bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki as self proclaimed necessity in order to end a devastating world wide conflict whereas Japan viewed it as the absolute worst that could happen. Attack on titan is a bad ending if you're Eldian but it's a good ending if you're not Eldian.
RIP Floch, the True Successor of Erwin and the Last Devil of Paradise. He Dedicated His Heart and gave his life for Eldia. He grew from being a scared kid to the Fallen Hero of Eldia.
Dude, I'm in tears ngl. My boy fought to the very end for his country and his people. He was deeply damaged by trauma and his ways weren't the best, and yet he was more logical and understanding (not to mention loyal) than most of the main characters. It really makes me sad that even today there are people who still don't get the importance of Floch to the story and how a GREATLY written character he is. I'm still mourning it seems. Rest, king. Hopefully we'll see him again when AOE comes🤜
Now THIS is true cinema. Thank you so much for this video. Floch Forster RIP you absolute mad lad. The last true patriot. A man who gave his life for his country so his nation might live on!
Murdering literally everyone to save your friends is an unrealistic ideology as well. The stakes of this story were unrealistically massive and Armin and Mikasa’s reaction was completely within reason
Levi and Hange, the last 2 oldest members of the legion. The two of them would have had to see countless companions fall before the jaws of the pure titans. The two of them had the true weight of all their hearts, waiting to see what meaning they would give to their deaths. Were their deaths to support a mass genocide aimed at protecting the island or were their deaths to defend the innocent people who were being massacred?
@@SandyCheeks1896 I think your forgetting that in this case that 'everyone' is nothing but enemies and people who hate your entire race. It is a fact that the only choices were to kill everyone outside the walls or let everyone in them die. I don't think Armin and Mikasa were in reason because by choosing to stop Eren they put all of their people at risk with just the hope that the people they save wouldn't try to kill them again, which they did. And the part I liked the least is that they killed their own comrades to do it. Their comrades begged them to surrender and just not interfere but they still killed them because they were in their way.
Floch is a good example of the effects of witnessing pure horror can do to someones brain and change them. Even if you want to argue that floch was always the same from s3, you can't say that being the only survivor of that suicide charge didn't play a major role.
@@lxfj2128 well, killing most of the world is something to cope with. More like he was sad there is no other way to go. I am more surprised about Hange - her death was sad, but she admitted Floch is right, while still carrying on her plan of stopping Eren just because genocide is bad. She didn't even have her own plan what to do after, which she btw admitts too by saying she is powerless and "not showing any future to Eren". After that, she went to kill herself to make a cool exit thus leaving problems up to Armin and giving up. As I count it correctly, in the manga she manages to kill 4 marching titans, which in my opinion has no effect of getting some time to take off.
Also, I was rewatching the episode where Floch, Louise and them were arrested for leaking the info about Eren, and Floch said something along the lines of; “If it’s for the sake of humanity, so be it.” And I realized that he sounded exactly like Erwin right there, that could have easily come out of Erwin’s mouth when he was detained by the Military Police in season 3
Erwin's only worthy heir. RIP Commander Floch. You did your duty with courage, loyalty & determination. You dedicated your heart & gave your life for your country.
@@mertegeselam8321 Nationalist? lmao. If being a nationalist means saving my people from getting genocided by the outside world then sure, people who also tormented my island with titans for years than sure. You mean the same children of my people getting k**ed if i sit on my a** and do nothing then sure i guess.
Through action, a Man becomes a Hero Through death, a Hero becomes a Legend Through time, a Legend becomes a Myth RIP King Floch👑 Loyal Friend and Patriot, in time they all will know you were Right !! o7
Floch is such an interesting character. He's someone I barely even remembered at first, but ended up being such a complex character - so broken yet so determined and unrelenting in his principles. I never would want to meet someone like him in real life, but as a fictional person, he's extremely compelling. Anyway thanks for your amazing videos, Zurik! I've just watched the Hange one and I was pleasantly surprised when this one popped on my notifs.
Nah he'd be pretty great in real life as a friend. It's simply the situation he was under in the story until the Erwin charge he was just a person and a soldier for his country . It's like saying you wouldn't want to meet a soldier because they killed people fighting for freedom or not . I like floch
@@kagerouge9007 What I dislike more than him dying because of the traitors, is how many people watch this show and just HATE Floch because he is against the main characters, not giving any thought into what Floch has gone through and what his end goal is. Personally I feel all the main characters going against Eren/Eldia here towards the end of the show is stupid as fuck. No matter if they stop the rumbling, the ones left alive will hate the Eldians forever for what has happened and will 100% start a war again. It's just pushing the problems towards the future, while Flochs plan would murder many innocents yes, but in turn his people would thrive and not face war again.
@@Ascasc1980 yea i get wanting to stop the genocide before it actually happened or the rumbling started but what the fuck is the end goal here for the alliance now dont get me wrong i do like both sides i am more of a yeagerist though but as soon as eren released the rumbling there is no reason to fight anymore and they dont even have proof that stopping eren will stop the rumbling its never said it will they are just hoping it does

@@anubhavbapanasa Eren turned out to be a cringe kid lusting after his adoptive sister. Zeke... Zeke was a self hating idiot. Erwin was based and shouldve survived. Floch is his true successor.
@@traiascacodreanu4553 Yup. Eren was #1 until the end where he becomes garbage. But Erwin was honestly the overall best character. Zeke was cool until he wanted to end his own race 😂
Floch carried the legacy of the Last Stand against the Beast. The only one who witnessed Erwin's speech, the only one who survived a suicidal charge and lived to regret because deep inside he wanted to die with his comrades. Heil Floch.
I love how this anime makes ppl have their own opinions like, you can agree with some topic but there will be something that you look from the other perspective. I think that is a sign of how good this show is, how dept these anime characters can be. Man, this anime is really a masterpiece.
What a crazy good written character Floch.His character is so deep yet it so highly misunderstood... king floch = %99 real world. You were a soldier to the bitter end and fought for your peoples freedom and existence Shinzou wo Sasageyo! for king floch o7,Erwin's last soldier..✊
Held true to his beliefs and dedicated his life to the noble cause. Understood the value of his life and fought for his people. Never hesitated and never backed down. He might not be a protagonist but he is the tragic hero of the story.
Floch is someone who I think is a perfect example of a character that you can hate if you want to, but the character writing and development is so good.
that last bit about being fooder hits like a train, how many people in history do you think thought like this and were instrumental to the course of history? millions of nameless people who got to their end fulfilling their role, i think it's healthy to envy them a bit.
Very true, everyone wants immediate effects for things they do. The metahistorical drama we all face takes time to play out.....and we all have our parts to play. It's good to know others feel the same unironically
Allying with Zeke and Yelena and forcing the cadets to beat their teacher to a pulp under the threat of prison is totally what good people do to win, right?
@@ignacioruiz-retegui6196 he saved his nation from the outside world hes a good guy trying his best to save his friends and family from the outside world that started crying like babies when paradis fought back
@@jackgoldman25pe Yes, the question is HOW. If it went as he wanted, his nation would be full of pure jaegerist eldians, whatever foreign slaves they spared and ALL the titans. Also, what friends are you talking about? The only ones who seemed like friends (and not lackeys or fanatic associates) were killed by Zeke, whom he helped to get what he wanted from him, no matter how many eldians died in the process. The "outside world" is full of ignorants, and his retaliation was disproportionate.
He wasn’t a natural like Erwin, but he rose to the occasion and became a leader. In the face of death, he understood the meaning of his life. One of those characters that might be under appreciated bc of he was going against our beloved main characters (except Eren). Personally, I liked him but felt like he wouldn’t make it too far.
Floch was truly a hero. He never faltered, he never wavered, he never ran. Loyal, devoted, and disciplined, he was Eren’s only real friend and Erwin’s true disciple.
Floch has become my favorite character after season 4. I thought it was strange how he went from a wimpering coward back in season 3 to a total freaking badass alluva sudden, but seeing this now, I realize he's one of the most fleshed out characters in the shortest amount of time in the show. He found his purpose for surviving the beast titan, albeit misguided, and died fighting for what he believed in. RIP Floch best character
Imagine the people of Paradis living in a deserted world at their disposal. Endless lands, endless resources. They would have been safe and would have thrived. No more wars. Beautiful
... the titans crushed and burned everything, there were only ruins and footsteps. So no, global destruction doesn't work, the jaegerists aren't just killing their enemies, they're destroying everything. I mean seriously, more space = less war? What kind of logic is that?
@@ignacioruiz-retegui6196 all im saying is if they completed the rumbling, the would have no enemy left to fight, and when eren would eventually destroy the titans, paradis could live in peace and balance
@@patient4047 Yeah, how can you live in peace when you have to kill all who oppose you? You'll have to keep killing people when they cause problems, even if prison is an option to the pureblooded eldian majority and not the foreign slaves who most likely will get killed to ensure they don't rebel in vengeance like the eldians did to Marley. At least you're smart and add the destruction of the power of the titans that started this whole problem as a part of that future.
@@ignacioruiz-retegui6196 that just meant that the earth would have to start over again. Paradis has plants, seeds, animals. It would have not been easy or immediate but it's not like the planet hadn't experienced apocalypses before...
@@ignacioruiz-retegui6196 You dont know that lil bro. Look how the city where the idiots were living in 139 was. And hack Isayama can simply write that Titans dont destroy the land fully or some shit like that. The way the story is written, full Rumbling is the only option for Paradis.
At least Zeke had a logical well thought-out plan. You can disagree with his plan, and I do, but at least it was a workable solution. The cringevengers had absolutely nothing, they acted out of impulse and moralfagging. They basically doomed Paradis and Eldians to satiate themselves and alleviate their guilt for helping to make the rumbling happen in the first place. Floch was like the embodiment of my frustration with the cringevengers, RIP King.
Bro, yeah, if you're of another fucking race. Read the morgenthau plan, that's essentially your position. They fought out of impulse as they had no choice, time isn't always a luxury, especially when you don't have hindsight. They fought for their own, which YOU may disagree with. But literally, all of your forefathers would agree with floch. You're in agreement with self extermination of the group for the arbitrarily decided idea it's better for the whole
ending erwin's speech right before floch fights everyone was too good

Floch is a heavily traumatized teenager veteran who is trying to ensure that Erwin, Marlowe and his friends didn't die for nothing even if it means throwing away his humanity.
shinganshina will be destruyed in too much time but in the side of the rest of the island we dont know what happen
@@harisanyu5629 you know very well what you are, that's good
RIP to the king 👑 never wavered, stayed true to his ideals.
Yeah true ❤
I love Floch so much, he’s a total legend.
The only one who can save the Eldian Empire is you, Eren Jaeger.
If Eren dies, Paradis will drown in a sea of blood.
Our Devil... He is... our only hope.
Floch Forster's words held truth and weight and it was a cruel truth that nobody wanted to hear or see. He narrowly avoided what should've been unavoidable death on several occasions all to defended his country, the island he was born and raised on with unwavering determination. Even when confronting his comrades, his enemies and overthrowing a corrupt and vulnerable government he stated the truth and nothing but the truth. He exclaims that he was nothing but fodder and that he was completely expendable which may have been the only time he was wrong because he was the last line of defense for Eren. He goes onto say that everyone has a right to decide if a cause is worth dying for and he fought and died for a cause he believed in. He was a hero right up to the moment he drew his final breath, and in the end when the world came crashing down on Paradis in retaliation, when those B2 spirit stealth bombers leveled the island to oblivion, Floch Forster was right. He was right.
I swear the anime better have the good ending because the ending in the manga is fucking tragic. The yagerist are the good guys.
There never was a good or bad ending. The whole premise of the show was always the grey. The Yeagerist are just a sacrifice to show us the moral ignorance we share as a species where we kill, mane, torture all in the name of justice freedom and righteousness when in reality, we all are just as fucking a shit hole as our enemies. The show ends with the fact that Erens genocide being stopped by the very people he loved and fought for brings forth a sense of impending unity in the mists of absolute destruction.
@@meritocratikThe boy ramzi stole because his family was poor, they were literally war refugees. Even eren Said They were in the same situation as eldians but you’re just biased. Floch is not a king for supporting genocide, and he never will. Cry about it.
@@subhankarray3657 I'd basically agree with this statement but one thing sticks out to me. The story's ending is based on perspective which happens because as you said the premise of the show is morally grey. The remaining 20% of the world's population didn't just retaliate and genocide Paradis Island out of revenge but also out of self proclaimed necessity, like a form of self defense. Which is the same reason behind why Eren and the Yeagerists condoned their actions with the Rumbling. If you look at the bombing of Paradis from a Marleyian standpoint it's viewed as a good thing but the Rumbling is a bad thing and vice versa with the Eldians on Paradis. And of course if you want to look at it from a more realistic perspective the United States bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki as self proclaimed necessity in order to end a devastating world wide conflict whereas Japan viewed it as the absolute worst that could happen. Attack on titan is a bad ending if you're Eldian but it's a good ending if you're not Eldian.
@@svk0531I will make sure you cry about it.
Rip to my king floch. One of the best characters ever.
Yeah I don’t agree with floch but good written character
He got the best character development and ending but nobody realised.
イェーガー派にしか感情移入できない。
エルディア人目線では彼の行動は何も間違ってない。描き方ひとつでフロックは主役（ヒーロー）になれたキャラクターだ。
Erwin Floch Eren là 3 nhân vật mà t thích phần còn lại là súc vật
リヴァイも、調査兵団が目指したのは「呆れるほどおめでたい理想の世界」って認めちゃってるしね
現実的には、イェーガー派の行動が正常な判断でしょう
ただ、この作品のテーマの一つとして、「争いが決して無くならない世界でどう生きるか」という問いかけが有るので、それに対する答えの一つとして地慣らし阻止集団の行動が描かれているんだと思います。
「全人類が救われる道を探る」や、「暴力に対して話し合いで向き合う」といった思想は当然、現実世界ではそれこそ呆れるほどおめでたいものではあるんだろうが、あくまで漫画なんでね
やっぱりどうしてもお花畑的展開になっちゃうのはどうしようもないことだと思う
地鳴らし阻止集団の思想は平和な世界を築く為に不可欠な心構えではあるけど、現実的には絶対に実現不可能な代物である以上、偏りすぎると相手に好き勝手に蹂躙されちゃうっていうね…
難しい問題ですね
長々と失礼しました
Thank you our King Floch 👑👑
True protector of homeland Paradis and Eldians, you will be remembered.
Thank you for everything king Floch.
RIP Floch, the True Successor of Erwin and the Last Devil of Paradise. He Dedicated His Heart and gave his life for Eldia. He grew from being a scared kid to the Fallen Hero of Eldia.
Glory to Eldia. The idea that the courageous fallen survey corp would agree with the honorary marleyan main characters is an insult to their memory.
Dude, I'm in tears ngl. My boy fought to the very end for his country and his people. He was deeply damaged by trauma and his ways weren't the best, and yet he was more logical and understanding (not to mention loyal) than most of the main characters. It really makes me sad that even today there are people who still don't get the importance of Floch to the story and how a GREATLY written character he is.
I'm still mourning it seems. Rest, king. Hopefully we'll see him again when AOE comes🤜
Now THIS is true cinema. Thank you so much for this video. Floch Forster RIP you absolute mad lad. The last true patriot. A man who gave his life for his country so his nation might live on!
Thank you! ❤
Floch was right all along.
from the most hated character in the squad to the only character I like, fight for his ideals RIP King🫡
Floch was realist. That's why I like him more than anyone. Armin and Mikasa wasted sacrifice of their teammates for unrealistic ideology.
Murdering literally everyone to save your friends is an unrealistic ideology as well. The stakes of this story were unrealistically massive and Armin and Mikasa’s reaction was completely within reason
Levi and Hange, the last 2 oldest members of the legion. The two of them would have had to see countless companions fall before the jaws of the pure titans. The two of them had the true weight of all their hearts, waiting to see what meaning they would give to their deaths. Were their deaths to support a mass genocide aimed at protecting the island or were their deaths to defend the innocent people who were being massacred?
It's not ideology, Armin even admitted he dont know wtf he's doing for 3/4 of ss4. At the end he just want a moral high ground
@@SandyCheeks1896 I think your forgetting that in this case that 'everyone' is nothing but enemies and people who hate your entire race. It is a fact that the only choices were to kill everyone outside the walls or let everyone in them die. I don't think Armin and Mikasa were in reason because by choosing to stop Eren they put all of their people at risk with just the hope that the people they save wouldn't try to kill them again, which they did. And the part I liked the least is that they killed their own comrades to do it. Their comrades begged them to surrender and just not interfere but they still killed them because they were in their way.
I disagree armin never asked for any sacrifice and they died because floch was selfish fascist !!!
words cannot describe how much i respect floch👑
Why do you respect a xenophobic nationalist racist kid
Bro just dropped the hardest Floch edit. The true devil, my king. Floch Forster.
小野賢章しか勝たんww
天才の編集。
号泣です。。。
わたしは、フロック好きだよ。
間違ってない、って抱きしめてあげたい。
辛かったね。苦しかったね。もう闘わなくていいよ、って、
言ってあげられる人が、いたらよかったのに。、。
Floch is a good example of the effects of witnessing pure horror can do to someones brain and change them. Even if you want to argue that floch was always the same from s3, you can't say that being the only survivor of that suicide charge didn't play a major role.
Our devil is our only hope.
Shame he turned into a crying clown with no character agency
@@lxfj2128 well, killing most of the world is something to cope with. More like he was sad there is no other way to go.
I am more surprised about Hange - her death was sad, but she admitted Floch is right, while still carrying on her plan of stopping Eren just because genocide is bad. She didn't even have her own plan what to do after, which she btw admitts too by saying she is powerless and "not showing any future to Eren". After that, she went to kill herself to make a cool exit thus leaving problems up to Armin and giving up. As I count it correctly, in the manga she manages to kill 4 marching titans, which in my opinion has no effect of getting some time to take off.
@@lxfj2128I swear to God, people like you are so two-faced.
The prince of Eldia
I kinda want ova for floch’s life so bad
i hop they do it man .
Also, I was rewatching the episode where Floch, Louise and them were arrested for leaking the info about Eren, and Floch said something along the lines of; “If it’s for the sake of humanity, so be it.” And I realized that he sounded exactly like Erwin right there, that could have easily come out of Erwin’s mouth when he was detained by the Military Police in season 3
Came after paradis was destroyed in the anime ending.. Floch was right. RIP king
Erwin's only worthy heir. RIP Commander Floch. You did your duty with courage, loyalty & determination. You dedicated your heart & gave your life for your country.
An Angel of Paradis. Floch is the goat.
Floch never got enough credit, hated him on s3 afterwards tho quickly rose to be a favorite rip my boy👏🏻
One of the best characters in fiction period. Floch played his role absolutely perfect. Becoming more of a favorite then all the of the betrayers.
Eldia's true hero..Damn near shed a tear 😢 Rip King 🤴
Yeah eldia s hero but also killer of innocent children
@@mertegeselam8321 I agree but unfortunately most of the comments here support him😱😱
@@kazeippe bc they’re more nationalist than they should be
@@mertegeselam8321 Nationalist? lmao. If being a nationalist means saving my people from getting genocided by the outside world then sure, people who also tormented my island with titans for years than sure. You mean the same children of my people getting k**ed if i sit on my a** and do nothing then sure i guess.
@@mertegeselam8321250,000 people killed by Marley at the hands of Reiner and Berthold is a joke?
Floch was right! RIP KING 👑👑👑
Holyf the parallel between floch and erwin is insane
Thank you! ❤
Yeah, the speech directly parallels to what he did: th-cam.com/video/1Eau_HWvQFM/w-d-xo.html

Through death, a Hero becomes a Legend
Through time, a Legend becomes a Myth
RIP King Floch👑 Loyal Friend and Patriot, in time they all will know you were Right !! o7
I love Floch, he's an underdog with a good mindset
Most underrated character and the only one who was the true leader after Erwin Smith.
Fought for his country to the end.
KING FLOCH THE GOAT
MVP Floch good to see many guy in the comment section not like the guys who think he was a villain
Floch is such an interesting character. He's someone I barely even remembered at first, but ended up being such a complex character - so broken yet so determined and unrelenting in his principles.
I never would want to meet someone like him in real life, but as a fictional person, he's extremely compelling.
Anyway thanks for your amazing videos, Zurik! I've just watched the Hange one and I was pleasantly surprised when this one popped on my notifs.
Thank you so much! ❤
Lol real life 😂😂
Nah he'd be pretty great in real life as a friend. It's simply the situation he was under in the story until the Erwin charge he was just a person and a soldier for his country .
It's like saying you wouldn't want to meet a soldier because they killed people fighting for freedom or not .
I like floch
@@MUDDECOOKIE001 its a woman, what do you expect
@@MUDDECOOKIE001 you know among the squad, who is suck as a friend in real life? Ymir and Erwin. And maybe, Daz.
The true hero of Eldia. Rip Floch.
Floch is the only one who witnessed Erwins speech and he is his real successor, not armin
Yup, actually the only scout left with knowledge of Erwin's speech. Too bad he died to the hand of traitors
@@kagerouge9007 What I dislike more than him dying because of the traitors, is how many people watch this show and just HATE Floch because he is against the main characters, not giving any thought into what Floch has gone through and what his end goal is.
Personally I feel all the main characters going against Eren/Eldia here towards the end of the show is stupid as fuck. No matter if they stop the rumbling, the ones left alive will hate the Eldians forever for what has happened and will 100% start a war again. It's just pushing the problems towards the future, while Flochs plan would murder many innocents yes, but in turn his people would thrive and not face war again.
@@Ascasc1980 yea i get wanting to stop the genocide before it actually happened or the rumbling started but what the fuck is the end goal here for the alliance now dont get me wrong i do like both sides i am more of a yeagerist though but as soon as eren released the rumbling there is no reason to fight anymore and they dont even have proof that stopping eren will stop the rumbling its never said it will they are just hoping it does
@@EdelgardvonHresvelg8663 Bro eren is the one whos controlling rumbling so its a common sense that he killing him would stop rumbling...The thing is inspite of the masterpiece ending we got some people hate them and now they try to nitpick everything..
@@thecrazygamer7334 ahh people nitpick that's apart of human nature i personallu wont mind the ending no matter how it ends because its attack on titan even if the ending is awful that wont take away from how amazing everything else has been imo atleast
Best Character
Lmfao
After eren and zeke( maybe after erwin also)
@@anubhavbapanasa Eren turned out to be a cringe kid lusting after his adoptive sister.
Zeke... Zeke was a self hating idiot.
Erwin was based and shouldve survived. Floch is his true successor.
@@traiascacodreanu4553 Yup. Eren was #1 until the end where he becomes garbage. But Erwin was honestly the overall best character. Zeke was cool until he wanted to end his own race 😂
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 based Erwin
Floch carried the legacy of the Last Stand against the Beast. The only one who witnessed Erwin's speech, the only one who survived a suicidal charge and lived to regret because deep inside he wanted to die with his comrades.
Heil Floch.
True patriot now is time to rest, King ! o7 👑
この動画､イェーガー派にどっぷり感情移入出来るから好き
I love how this anime makes ppl have their own opinions like, you can agree with some topic but there will be something that you look from the other perspective. I think that is a sign of how good this show is, how dept these anime characters can be. Man, this anime is really a masterpiece.
What a crazy good written character Floch.His character is so deep yet it so highly misunderstood...
king floch = %99 real world. You were a soldier to the bitter end and fought for your peoples freedom and existence Shinzou wo Sasageyo! for king floch o7,Erwin's last soldier..✊
Held true to his beliefs and dedicated his life to the noble cause. Understood the value of his life and fought for his people. Never hesitated and never backed down.
He might not be a protagonist but he is the tragic hero of the story.
Floch the fallen hero!
Oh my god I didn't know I could cry for Floch like this. Truly he was a warrior.
He just wanted the people in the island to live their lives to the full without fear of anything outside it. RIP 👑 King
Well, nothing to fear except disobeying him.
Love to hate him
Hate to love him
Perfect description of Floch's character
Love to Love him
@@AbubakrZakaria just checked, its amazing.
Best character in attack on titan
Floch is someone who I think is a perfect example of a character that you can hate if you want to, but the character writing and development is so good.
Floch best character, stood his ground until the very end
If AoT was more realistic, the entire ship would drown under the weight of Floch's steel balls.
He almost bypassed plot armor RIP King Floch
This comment is underrated 😂
Flock the hero of paradise
He truly is my favourite character
One of the best characters in all of fiction. Rip King
that last bit about being fooder hits like a train, how many people in history do you think thought like this and were instrumental to the course of history? millions of nameless people who got to their end fulfilling their role, i think it's healthy to envy them a bit.
great edit by the way, excellent work putting his process of thinking in a good order
Very true, everyone wants immediate effects for things they do. The metahistorical drama we all face takes time to play out.....and we all have our parts to play. It's good to know others feel the same unironically
The Floch and Erwin parralels were amazing!
That's my GOAT, respect King Floch 👑
You made me realise just how great a character Floch is…great work again😁
Thank you! ❤
a floch edit. just amazing
Would never get tired defending Floch from HYPOCRITES.
Nice, love to find Floch fans. Do you think mass murder with a smile on your face is cool too?
Just asking you, do you approve the poisoning plan to turn his own people into titans?
Allying with Zeke and Yelena and forcing the cadets to beat their teacher to a pulp under the threat of prison is totally what good people do to win, right?
@@ignacioruiz-retegui6196 he saved his nation from the outside world hes a good guy trying his best to save his friends and family from the outside world that started crying like babies when paradis fought back
@@jackgoldman25pe Yes, the question is HOW. If it went as he wanted, his nation would be full of pure jaegerist eldians, whatever foreign slaves they spared and ALL the titans.
Also, what friends are you talking about? The only ones who seemed like friends (and not lackeys or fanatic associates) were killed by Zeke, whom he helped to get what he wanted from him, no matter how many eldians died in the process.
The "outside world" is full of ignorants, and his retaliation was disproportionate.
King Floch, he is the main character for me.
He wasn’t a natural like Erwin, but he rose to the occasion and became a leader. In the face of death, he understood the meaning of his life. One of those characters that might be under appreciated bc of he was going against our beloved main characters (except Eren). Personally, I liked him but felt like he wouldn’t make it too far.
he made it far he made it far enough rip king
RIP Floch Forster, Erwin's worthy heir & spiritual son. You will be missed but heroes never die. You won't be forgotten.
Imagine betraying all ur people because ur friend is saving ur world from titans and racism, couldnt be me, Floch is the goat.
Floch was truly a hero. He never faltered, he never wavered, he never ran. Loyal, devoted, and disciplined, he was Eren’s only real friend and Erwin’s true disciple.
Never monged
Rest soldier king
you fought bravely
He is the man 😢
He died as Eren lives, always moving forward
Floch has become my favorite character after season 4. I thought it was strange how he went from a wimpering coward back in season 3 to a total freaking badass alluva sudden, but seeing this now, I realize he's one of the most fleshed out characters in the shortest amount of time in the show. He found his purpose for surviving the beast titan, albeit misguided, and died fighting for what he believed in. RIP Floch best character
Imagine the people of Paradis living in a deserted world at their disposal. Endless lands, endless resources. They would have been safe and would have thrived. No more wars. Beautiful
... the titans crushed and burned everything, there were only ruins and footsteps.
So no, global destruction doesn't work, the jaegerists aren't just killing their enemies, they're destroying everything.
I mean seriously, more space = less war? What kind of logic is that?
@@ignacioruiz-retegui6196 all im saying is if they completed the rumbling, the would have no enemy left to fight, and when eren would eventually destroy the titans, paradis could live in peace and balance
@@patient4047 Yeah, how can you live in peace when you have to kill all who oppose you? You'll have to keep killing people when they cause problems, even if prison is an option to the pureblooded eldian majority and not the foreign slaves who most likely will get killed to ensure they don't rebel in vengeance like the eldians did to Marley.
At least you're smart and add the destruction of the power of the titans that started this whole problem as a part of that future.
@@ignacioruiz-retegui6196 that just meant that the earth would have to start over again. Paradis has plants, seeds, animals. It would have not been easy or immediate but it's not like the planet hadn't experienced apocalypses before...
@@ignacioruiz-retegui6196 You dont know that lil bro. Look how the city where the idiots were living in 139 was.
And hack Isayama can simply write that Titans dont destroy the land fully or some shit like that. The way the story is written, full Rumbling is the only option for Paradis.
rip the most underrated and clearly the best character in aot ✊
Floch's character growth is insane
Awesome edit
I LOVE FLOCH SO MUCHHHH his character was so interestinng
At least Zeke had a logical well thought-out plan. You can disagree with his plan, and I do, but at least it was a workable solution. The cringevengers had absolutely nothing, they acted out of impulse and moralfagging. They basically doomed Paradis and Eldians to satiate themselves and alleviate their guilt for helping to make the rumbling happen in the first place. Floch was like the embodiment of my frustration with the cringevengers, RIP King.
Bro, yeah, if you're of another fucking race. Read the morgenthau plan, that's essentially your position. They fought out of impulse as they had no choice, time isn't always a luxury, especially when you don't have hindsight. They fought for their own, which YOU may disagree with. But literally, all of your forefathers would agree with floch. You're in agreement with self extermination of the group for the arbitrarily decided idea it's better for the whole
Respect, King Floch👑
Floch development character was incredible
