I think the anime explains it well enough but I see a lot of people complaining about it so here's my take.

Its all about the mindset with which people joined the Survey Corps.

Hange, Levi, Jean, Mikasa, Armin, Connie - the whole gang joined to protect "humanity" from titans. Over time however, things got much more complex. They had to fight humans who were not aligned with them and kill them for their own survival. Those were complex situations where they had to fight with people eventho they didnt like it, all for the sake of humanity's future. Then the revelation comes and things are once again all messed up. Now they had to fight to protect themselves and their island - but at the same time they didnt become fascists whose only goal was to serve their nation alone. They still identified as Human above all else and the notion of being Eldian, and therefore separate from other humans was foreign to them. Now that Paradis is no longer under threat of destruction thanks to Eren activating the Founder, there's no need for them (from their perspective) to fight with their fellow humans anymore. Hence they want to protect innocent humans from the onslaught of titans like they originally wanted to. You can say that the story has come full circle with most of characters finally getting to do what they wanted to do from the beginning.......... This is why Connie tells Reiner that they were going to "Save the World" because thats what Reiner told them when they were trainees, which was also something Reiner believed until he discovered Eldians were not devils like he was told. This also appplies to Eren, who is finally fighting for what he always wanted - Freedom

The Yeagerists on the other hand are newer recruits who joined for the purpose of restoring Eldia. They identify as Eldians above all else and so want to wipe out everyone who stands in their way. You cans say that Floch and his gang represent the values of "New Eldian Empire" while Jean and the rest represent the values of "Humanity Inside the Walls"

As for the Marleyans and Marleyan Eldians - They are simple. They have to protect their families. Thats all there is to it

Hope I made things clear for people

Pretty good take on this episode, but the "let's save humanity" scene is still cringe
Isayama should've executed it better

you're missing the point, the world doesn't consider the eldians as humans, the world wants to kill all eldians, why would you protect that humanity?

That scene was objectively cringe but u can still like it. And I don't have any problem with the whole concept of them uniting to stop eren, most of both the Marleyans and eldians of alliance have a somewhat good reason to going out of their way and trying to stop eren, it just wasn't a good execution

Because they're still humans at the end of the day and most of them dont know any better (talking abt non eldians). Niccolo, Magath, Pieck Squad all show that eldians and non eldians can get along fine if you just allowed them to interact properly

Strawman argument again. I never said it was "too deep". I just said it looked "cool". Nothing to look deeper in it. Again, Aot fandom at it's finest.

I'm not gonna argue with you on this, tbh when the manga chapter was released and now that the anime is aired, I only have/had two or three issues with it. So it's not a trash or even bad thing, it's just cringe because it isn't fitting for aot

pretty sure that if someone is using a strawman stunt here, that's you. I've been saying that this scene wasn't bad or terrible, it just was something hard to watch, something that makes you want to turn your eyes away from the screen for a few secs. And u can find alot of scenes like this in marvel/DC movies, and there, these scenes are usually fitting but in aot at least for me it wasn't, and that makes it cringy af

Well AoT always had these kinds of scenes.....Remember Pixis shouting from 60 m up in the air and somehow everyone hears him? You dont look too deeply into these things right? Just for the hype no need to look too deeply into it

pixis's speech is one of my favourite scenes of the whole series and that scene is not cringe at all, probably uses some anime logic(like how his voice was heard by soldiers from far away while he himself was above a 50m wall) which is normal, aot's an anime after all.
just rewatch that ep and see how impactful and realistic his speech was, and here I'm talking abt a single dialogue and a scene of like 10 secs, his speech was like 10min or less, if it really was cringe then I would drop aot back in s1

Exactly. Did I ever say Pixis speech was cringe? Hell nah. I love it now as I did 4 years ago. But you just made my point. AoT is an anime and a shonen one at that, even tho it goes wayyyy beyond the shonen scope of things. Dramatic scenes of heroes before they go out to face their adversaries arent out of place at all

I won't completely disagree but hange and others had 4 freaking years to find a way for paradise survival but they rather choose to live under kiyomi's kindness. And thats why eren had to take some action abt it. Also "to save the world" scene was really cringe and stupid specially in the manga cause Connie had the audacity to say that to Reiner after almost killing a innocent child and that child was the reason (with gabi) Reiner came to Paradise to rescue him.

Yes. He almost killed a child to save his mother. A stranger for one's own family. And he realized how selfishly he'd been acting too. Besides, they're all hypocrites in one way or another (just like humans in general) but compared to Reiner at least, Connie is still a bloody saint. Its an invitation to let everything that happened prior be water under the bridge and move forward to stop omnicide. So no not cringe at all unless you already hate the anime and just want more reasons to hate it

Using the word "objectively" so casually is not a good thing. It loses it's meaning.

It most definitely wasn't objectively cringe. Just in your subjective opinion.
Just like it was badass in OP's subjective opinion.

you're not wrong again, now what I say is that a dialogue was needed for that moment but just look at the comments, it hadn't the impact for many fans and some like me are really annoyed by it. Tho it was at least better than the manga version, ch126 ended showing a cut with Annie's ass...

I seriously hate when people like to assume what I think, "unless you already hate the anime" I wouldn't have been here if I didnt liked the anime even after reading the manga. Also it was cringe, but I have to agree that anime somewhat saved it from being utter cringe unlike the manga.

agreed, at this point in the story nobody is completely justified (except onyankopon maybe?) But here it is: Reiner, Gabi, falco, onyankopon, Annie, magath, pieck and probably even Yelena really want to save their families and people, just like eren. Mikasa doesn't want innocents to die(obvious by her reaction in s4p1), Armin wants to follow Erwin's "do this for the humanity", because he feels insecure about getting CT instead of Erwin and believes that Erwin would see the outside world as a part of humanity so if only normal that he wants to stop eren if you look at it this way. But if you're talking about the execution of alliance assembling you are completely right, it is annoying

It isn’t objectively cringe since I didn’t think of it as cringe at all. That automatically makes it subjective, meaning it’s just your opinion and not a fact as you’re making it seem. You can think of it as cringe all you want though, you do have that right.

this thread is obviously not about the ending and I don't think anyone thinks that the whole idea of alliance trying to stop eren is wrong or out of character from its members, fans just didn't like the way that alliance were assembled together, actually most of them, like all the Marleyans and onyankopon have solid reasons to try and stop eren.

it's not that i don't like characters like that but whenever they start talking about, I'm please like keep the cringe to a minimum, but i love pixis and erwin especially erwin he's one of my favourite characters in all of anime and the reason i love him is beacause he's wants the truth it's much less if at all about saving the world

well I understand this, but what about his character overall? Do you like him or not? And what about Erwin, he has many speeches and similar moments
it's not that i don't like characters like that but whenever they start talking about, I'm please like keep the cringe to a minimum, but i love pixis and erwin especially erwin he's one of my favourite characters in all of anime and the reason i love him is beacause he's wants the truth it's much less if at all about saving the world
great, too bad pixis's speech scene wasn't for you and you couldn't enjoy it

I think the anime explains it well enough but I see a lot of people complaining about it so here's my take.

Its all about the mindset with which people joined the Survey Corps.

Hange, Levi, Jean, Mikasa, Armin, Connie - the whole gang joined to protect "humanity" from titans. Over time however, things got much more complex. They had to fight humans who were not aligned with them and kill them for their own survival. Those were complex situations where they had to fight with people eventho they didnt like it, all for the sake of humanity's future. Then the revelation comes and things are once again all messed up. Now they had to fight to protect themselves and their island - but at the same time they didnt become fascists whose only goal was to serve their nation alone. They still identified as Human above all else and the notion of being Eldian, and therefore separate from other humans was foreign to them. Now that Paradis is no longer under threat of destruction thanks to Eren activating the Founder, there's no need for them (from their perspective) to fight with their fellow humans anymore. Hence they want to protect innocent humans from the onslaught of titans like they originally wanted to. You can say that the story has come full circle with most of characters finally getting to do what they wanted to do from the beginning.......... This is why Connie tells Reiner that they were going to "Save the World" because thats what Reiner told them when they were trainees, which was also something Reiner believed until he discovered Eldians were not devils like he was told. This also appplies to Eren, who is finally fighting for what he always wanted - Freedom

The Yeagerists on the other hand are newer recruits who joined for the purpose of restoring Eldia. They identify as Eldians above all else and so want to wipe out everyone who stands in their way. You cans say that Floch and his gang represent the values of "New Eldian Empire" while Jean and the rest represent the values of "Humanity Inside the Walls"

As for the Marleyans and Marleyan Eldians - They are simple. They have to protect their families. Thats all there is to it

Hope I made things clear for people

you summed it up well.
