A little clarification on Anju. She is mostly Alba with a little mixing in the past on her mothers side. Because of this, she and her mother were sent to the camps where her mother wasted away and died from illness. Also, because she is mostly Alba, she was not treated well in the camps or even by other processors once she got conscripted. Another point that isn't clear in the anime is that every 6 months, the units are reorganized in order to try and prevent an organized resistance by the 86. This reorganization isn’t 100%, and in the case of Anju and Daiya, they have been together since they were conscripted.
I think I kinda disagree with your assemessment of Annette being "too privileged" to grasp the situation (although she is privileged for sure for being from a well off Alba family). To me, she represents a foil to Lena's idealist attitude/approach in the face of the injustices happening to the 86: Resignation. Lena tries to help, but in the end does not really achieve anything because it does not change the current situation - the 86 are still forced to fight and die, and the Republic stays ignorant and racist towards the 86. Annette is aware of the injustices happening and seems to be unhappy with the situation, but feels like doing anything at all s not going to make a difference. I think this makes her a very important character, because she very effectively represents how resignation and inaction in the face of injustice (i.e. "I can't change the situation, so why bother") is the same as perpetuating the system of opression. So TL;DR: Annette would probably like to change something, but feels like it won't matter and therefore thinks she might as well just do nothing. This is also why she keeps calling out Lena's hypocrisy the more she insists on helping the 86 and treating them like humans. Edit: What I also wanted to mention: During the scene in the graveyard, when Shin tells Lena that the 86 do not get a grave, we get a shot of the soldier memorial lining the path, and on the last slab next to Lena, the name of her father (Václav Milizé) is the last name written down. Lena's father was the LAST official death in the war against the Giad Empire because he died when the 86 had already been conscripted for the war effort.
Just wanted to say we discuss Annette much more in later episodes (around ep 6-7) diving deeper into her thinking process, she's slowly become one of our favourites just because of how deep she seems as a written character
@@CaraPrezReacts Yeah, I was assuming that you were ahead a bit on Patreon by now. Glad to hear that, I think she is very underrated as a character for how much heavy lifting she does. Loving the vids, keep 'em coming
@ramuki what you are missing is that the character is supposed to seem shallow and dismissive at this point, so it's totally fine to perceive her that way since that is the author's intention. her true character doesn't get exposed until later in the arc.
A very spot-on analysis of this character. Annette is very well written, like so many others in the show. The storytelling here is first-rate. She is not just a two dimensional character but has complex motivations for the way she is.
@@ramuki9427 yea i love her. she really represents most of us tbh, the ones to scared to do anything. only the brave 'morons' like Lena actually do it and actualy make a difference.
One thing that many people that react to this series get wrong, that I am tired of watching is misunderstanding General Karlstahls character. This might be a small spoiler but like I said most people dont get it so anyway. Karlstahl seems to be against Lena and complient towards the racist deeds his country commits and from what we see that is true but! He is simply a broken man. He was a fanatical idealist, even more so than Lena at the beginning of the show. He served his country and the ideals of it with almost fanatism. Than he was forced to carry out the horrible acts against the 86 and that broke him. It broke his worldview, the sacred country that he had believed in so much had turned away from his ideals. From this day on he changed from a fanatical idealist into a Nihilist. This country has destroyed his ideals and so this country and all the people in it shall burn.
DIF is one of those shows that you either love or hate. Many people think its ending is weak, a point of view with which I disagree. Nearly on Red has a great episode-by-episode analysis of the show that I highly recommend to those who might be interested in the story.
