I was studying for an ornithology test for science olympiads and I found a bird called Parasitic Jaeger. After researching into it, I gotta give props to Isayama. Since I don't want to re-summarize it, I'll be copy and pasting what the most trust source of information has to say, Wikipedia. Now I'm gonna go back to studying.

"The parasitic jaeger (Stercorarius parasiticus), also known as the Arctic skua, Arctic jaeger or parasitic skua, is a seabird in the skua family Stercorariidae. The word "jaeger" is derived from the German word Jäger, meaning "hunter". The English "skua" comes from the Faroese name skúgvur [ˈskɪkvʊər] for the great skua, with the island of Paradise known for its colony of that bird. The general Faroese term for skuas is kjógvi [ˈtʃɛkvə]. The genus name Stercorarius is Latin and means "of dung"; the food disgorged by other birds when pursued by skuas was once thought to be excrement. The specific parasiticus is from Latin and means "parasitic".

This bird will feed on rodents, insects, eggs, chicks and small birds in the breeding season, but the majority of its diet (especially in winter and on migration) is made up of food that it acquires by robbing other birds (primarily gulls and terns) of their catches in an act called kleptoparasitism."

If you want to see something, even more, cooler, search the meaning of 139 and 140. My friend showed me this, and I could not believe it. Isayama is goated at this subtle element placement.

Can't wait for the Attack on Birds spin-off, where Eldians transform into birds to fight the remains of Marley.

Nice, but there is nothing confirming Eren becoming a bird. This is pure symbolism.

Its symbolism you can interpret it however you like. But I don't get why people interpret it like that and then complain about the way they interpreted things...

i think we can interpret it however we like honestly!! the ending is left open for a reason. it can either be symbolism, eren sent the bird somehow from the afterlife, or eren IS the bird. when i first read it, i thought eren was the bird, but i’m still not completely decided on what i believe/want to believe lol. at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter, but that’s a v observant analysis regardless!!

How did the guy become a dove? Is this the magical reincarnation thingy? Shitty and a stupid explanation.
