The eldians are Jews aren't they ? Like the similarities are crazy. Some say Germans are eldians but that doesn't make sense since nobody is trying to genocide them though, pretty sure they are marleyans
The eldians are Jews aren't they ? Like the similarities are crazy...
No. Eldians are Germans, since they're constantly shunned for their past actions and in general glorious past. The real jews are Marleyans, who persecute the Germans, because they know that they can only control them by pandering to their guilt.
>snk
Tbh I think it's more influenced by Japanese history, which is what you'd expect since it's a japanese author. There are some stylistic similarities with Jews (like the armbands) but it's worth noting that these are also common in present-day Japan.
I think if you look at some of the details, like Eldians being in control of Marley (read the manga), then it doesn't make sense as a straightforward allegory.
> he doesn't know
> he fell for the marley propaganda
>eldians have to live in ghettos due to prejudice
>eldians make giant humanoid beings out of clay to do their bidding for them just like jewish golems
>NONONONO ELDIANS ARE EPIC NAZIS
That makes no sense Jews were the ones who were shunned by everyone for their history and called devils children not fucking Germans , what in the fuck are you talking about ? Get /Pol/ out of your head and think about all the connections logically. Ymirs deal with the devil is gods promise to the Jews, having titan power is like Jews having intelligence higher than others, eldian empire is like Israel before Romans. The Europeans Roman marleyans defeat the Jews causing a lot to be displaced in Europe and stuff, marleyans keeping eldians in a camp with badges on and taking some out to kill and exprement is pretty clear to Nazi Germany, paradise is like going back to Israel and the self hating eldaian are self hating Jews who helped the Nazis by developing technology
this
Levi is a jewish name, Erwin is a german name, and Misaka...you get the point.
What they share in common is their ancestor doomed them by being in contact with a "devil". So the whole struggle is the world condemns them to carry the sins of their ancestors.
This, are you actually genuinely saying white people are pushed to ghettos and executed when they do small crimes ? Imagine being a fragile race as whites who did those themselves while trying to argue they are the actual victims here , is this a joke ?
Carrying the sins of ancestors is just like Jewish descendants carrying the sins of killing Jesus , what does this have to do with Germany ?
False equivalence
The author draws from multiple references, hence having character representing each one of his inspirations: japanese, germans and jews.
Eldia itself does not conform to any one particular nation of people but is a combination.
And to answer your question, Germans carry the sins of Nazis hence them being eternal military supporters for Israel until the end of time.
That's like every major European country
yeah, but some of them, like Norway, can afford being neutral since they don't really have Germany's guilt.
>That makes no sense Jews were the ones who were shunned by everyone for their history and called devils children not fucking Germans , what in the fuck are you talking about
Yeah, but Jews never committed genocide like the Germans and Eldians.
I reckon they're a mix of pretty much every nationality blamed for sins of their forefathers. Germans, Japanese, Jews etc etc, and Marley might also be representative of Germany, Japan and Israel at the height of their oppressive periods.
You mean they haven't successfully committed genocide yet. They sure as fuck are trying their best to wipe out the Palestinians.
You bet if they had more people that they would genocide people, they are one of the most purist people I know.
The term "jewish supremacist" should exist because those guys hate everyone who isn't them and don't want you near them.
Read their book again. They genocided a lot of folks.
But they did dumbass
We still don't know if this is true or not. The exact nature of the "Fall of Lago" is still unknown, and the rest may be incorrect too. We don't know if Eldians are guilty or not.
>Yeah, but Jews never committed genocide like the Germans and Eldians.
Tell that to the Greeks of Cyprus.
Lets see:
>have to wear yellow star tags
check
>concentration camps
check
>treated like trash
check
>escape to the holy land after the war
check
>walled off nation with a walled off city at the center
check
>strongest character called Levi
check
>surrounded by brain dead enemy behind the wall
check
>still threatened with a genocide
check
Eldians are Jews, paradise is Israel.
meant to reply to
The world-spanning "eldian empire" is Israel?
Jewish people controlled Nazi Germany? Read the chapter where Willie Tybur explains that their family controls Marley.
Also nice bait thread 8/10.
I'm not a fan of Jews by any means but how can someone dismiss all this and say they are german and not Jews just because some characters blonde hair, I mean even the Marley uniform is exactly like the Nazis
Sure, they might have done some things in the far past. But no one cares about it today, or blame them for it.
>every other race dindunuffin! Only yt did bad things!
Terrible bait.
>just because some characters blonde hair
They also have German names.
Why do you think they were kicked out of every country and had various attempts at genociding them?
No but Europeans controlled Israel for a long while and eldians empire can be compared to biblical Israeli empire, also last time I checked Germans didn't have a huge empire either , what are you on /pol/tard retard ?
Exactly it's set in world war era when everyone blamed Jews for everything
The eldian empire was world-spanning. The comparison to Israel is retarded.
Please learn some Japanese history retard. Being blamed for genocides after their large empire is a huge deal in Japanese culture and they talk about it all the time. SNK is obviously influenced by that more than European history.
Upgraded to 9/10. Quality bait thread.
Maybe the real jews were the friends we made along the way
>german names
You mean the German names that nearly all ashkenazi jews have?
And Germans had a world spanning empire ???
God I wish
Exactly,your argument makes no sense
Well, Germany and allies did conquer much of Europe at their height during WW2, but in any case my argument isn't that Marleyans=Jews and Eldians = German gentiles, but rather that the idea of atoning for the sins of a genocidal eldian empire is probably mostly a metaphor for Japan's history during WW2 as well as the resulting pressure for them to atone for those war crimes.
Like I said, this is a huge deal in Japan and people think about it way more often than they think about Europe during WW2. I agree that there are certain similarities with Jews during WW2, but other details don't fit at all, but fit well with Japanese history. It's actually possible that Isayama intended to put in details matching both, to create the idea that "Japanese=Jews=victims", but maybe I'd have to read an interview or something to be really certain that is what he was going for.
I'm not him though
Based
Yes.
Virtually all eldians have germanic names and germanic phenotypes, the Ackerman (jewish) and Azumabito (japanese) clans are an exception, although I think this guy is on to something:
Ashkenazi jews have biblical and jewish names.
>similarities are crazy
Woah, I didn't know Jewish people could turn into giant man-eating monsters by receiving an injection.
>Some say Germans are eldians but that doesn't make sense since nobody is trying to genocide them though
>Eldians
germans, persecuted by nazi history
>Marley
Jews, won trough trickery, spiteful fucks making living from one past war and killing innocent neighbours.
(((No one))) sure, but strange how Germany is 1/4 foreign right now. Worse numbers for Western Europe soon
I'm sure their conscious is clear, can't genocide cattle after all
People become smart enough to recognize their cancerous influence
"Make your children feel shame for the actions of your ancestors"
"Be our cattle, it is punishment for our treatment in the past"
VERY, based.
Do you even know the influence of jews in the history of mankind? Everybody hated jews, that includes every other abrahamic religion.
>European architecture in paradis
>the entire titan lore is an allusion to nordic paganism
>japan as closest ally
>european phenotype and naming
>all of the world uniting to destroy paradis
If the didn't I'd assume we'd have been completely subjugated by now
Thank Christ prejudice had spared us so far
Actually in term of power and influence, compared to other people europeans are more in the position of marley. But I understand the reason why some people identify to eldian: nothing logical here, it is an instinctive surge to make a lesson of the eldian situation. Think about it one second, isn't marley in danger too? If the manga was in the POV of marley, no doubt that the discourse of some people would be exactly the same, I have no illusion about it.
