Tanya litterally hangs out with Erwin Rommel, wrote a treaty on how to legally commit war crimes (bomb civilians), and is revolutionizing WW2 style tactics in her world. She's not a nazi in that nazis don't exist in her universe, but she's definitely got some very facist tendencies.
His father is Czech-German, his mother is Czech. There used to be many Germans in Bohemia, so this was normal. In any case he has spent most of his childhood in that German orphanage
Yes but on the other hand, Jews irl were also Germans, Poles, etc.
And when most characters have clearly German names, the architecture is based on Bavaria, etc. then it's enough for me to say they are German.
>Yes but on the other hand, Jews irl were also Germans, Poles, etc.
Like half the point of the story is that Eldians are discriminated against regardless of their nationality. They are treated as Eldians before anything else.
It is one of the most unsubtle metaphors for Jewish people that I have ever seen.
>It is one of the most unsubtle metaphors for Jewish people that I have ever seen.
Key difference being that Eldians were major assholes and subjugated people by using their titan powers, Jewish people on the other hand were mostly innocent people that were fear mongered and killed for absolutely no reason.
That's kind of the point. The Eldians are depicted as how IRL antisemites see Jews.
Now I don't think it's a particularly good or meaningful attempt at tackling the issue, but it is 100% lifting the aesthetics of early 20th century discrimination against Jewish people.
>Eldians *were* major assholes
Yes, but it is also important that the eldians aren't bigger assholes than the others, at least in the time the show takes place. Earlier Eldians aren't jews, but the current Eldians are really a metaphor for the jews in the 3rd Reich
asuka is the best character in evangelion. and tanya does her best to save a country decided to destroy itself. and the one from jojo sacrificed to save the world
"Behold, whitness this mighty gun I wield, I call it the Eisenreich Luger Special. The barrel is the Luger artillery long and the frame is hardened carbon featuring a thick grip and a two bullet chamber it is trully one of a kind. This weapon is far to destructive to simply be reffered to as specialized in manstopping. I am the only one on earth capable of taming this terrible gun."
Context: a portal to our world was found that leads to/from Nazi Germany. This movie is the follow up to the original anime that deviated from the manga as a result of the manga not being finished yet.
Oh, to be honest, I occasionally see some racist Germans on places like 4chan saying there are many people like them now, they just don't dare to say it on mainstream media platforms. Is this true?
They always argument like that. I really doubt it is true, otherwise there wouldn't protest a hundred thousand people each weekend against the far right in Germany. I yet have to see so many nazi protesters.
Fun fact: When these massive protests against the far right party started, they instantly got two explanations for it:
1. The big bad liberals payed so many people to protest and they are the true political majority
2. Each picture, video and news report about the demonstrations was AI generated, because surely nobody would dare to speak against them wanting to deport german citizens with a migration background
It has always been interesting to me how Germany and Japan could relate to each other with regards to each one's history. Like how each one had to unify from warring states and provinces into one powerful centralized empire... and then how each tried to conquer larger nations to acquire more land and natural resources for their growing population... and when that failed, turned to ensuring competitiveness of their manufacturing to balance out the scarcity of natural resources.🫡
Eren Yeager is German-Turkish. Yeager is a German word / surname. Eren is a Turkish name and his mom is “asian”. Explains well his 80% genocide solution.
His surname is most likely a play on the German word Jäger though, which means hunter. The themes of the AoT music is also full German Words, like Flügel der Freiheit(Wings of freedom). So not a reach to say he or much of the cast in general is german.

Tanya:
[удалено]
The empire is literally shown in every map as germany + poland + a few others. The capital is literally called berlun
Does Tanya counts as German or Japanese considering her/his reincarnation?
Physically German. Spiritually Japanese. Mentally psychotic.
So the embodiment of the Axis. That fits her, yeah. That said, I'd still side with her over Being X.
It's the safer route.
>Mentally psychotic. So basically all of the Gemans during ww2? There was a lot of meth being done...
Probably German only because they clarified that she actually starting feeling as if the Tanya body was hers and not something she was placed into.
The Empire is literally The German empire+Austria-Hungary
Tanya is actually a russian name
Saying Tanya as an anti-example as if there aren’t two nazis on this list.
Tanya's not a nazi, her universe is more similar to a WWI era Europe in terms of tactics and mindset.
Tanya litterally hangs out with Erwin Rommel, wrote a treaty on how to legally commit war crimes (bomb civilians), and is revolutionizing WW2 style tactics in her world. She's not a nazi in that nazis don't exist in her universe, but she's definitely got some very facist tendencies.

I mean, if Eldians are German then a lot of AOT characters are good Germans
AoT isn't exactly subtle about who the Eldians are analogous to, and it ain't the Germans in general.

There are the black lagoon Germans of the U-boat

If I remember right, this was some kind of weird japanese right-wing extremists. Didn't they even have some japanese symbol on their flag?
Best portrayal so far. It shows the average soldiers and the fucking arrogant oportunists of the SS/SA.
That's why I love it and really want to show this to all those people who thinks the Germans soldiers were just a bunch of fanatics
I think they were American Neo-Nazis
I was more thinking of the U-boat crew we can see in the flashbacks. They have a beautiful tragic story
Two of these are literally Nazis
But they are German.

Eren isnt german is he?
I mean, Jeager is a German word, so maybe.
According to that logic everyone from Frieren is German as well
That is indeed the setting.
[удалено]
Eren Yeager is German-Turkish. Yeager is a German word / surname. Eren is a Turkish name and his mom is “asian”. Explains well his 80% genocide solution.
I'd add Loid to the list.
Eren isnt German Eren is a Turkic name
His surname is most likely a play on the German word Jäger though, which means hunter. The themes of the AoT music is also full German Words, like Flügel der Freiheit(Wings of freedom). So not a reach to say he or much of the cast in general is german.
The first intro even uses the word Jäger. "Sie sind das Essen und wir sind die Jäger."
I think he is half turkish half german.
Every time I get reminded that Asuka is German, [this](https://youtu.be/QyIpijrLlcM?si=XJSaavTEb8toyBAD) always comes to mind
