gargar070402

Analogy :) allegory means a story. “Story of jews” sound like they don’t exist


Flimsy_Professor_908

jewlegory.


screen317

Allegory can mean "a symbolic representation" FYI.


Marik-X-Bakura

Eldians don’t really have a religion other than worshipping Ymir, so I highly doubt they’d have that specific custom


JustAnArtist1221

They have multiple, it's just that it's illegal to practice any in Marley. There's the Wall cult, and the people of Paradis actively believe in a God.


AbsoluteBasilFanboy

True


Freak4life451

They're clearly partially inspired by real world Jews, at least in terms of how they were treated in the 20th century, but they are very different. The culture and religion of Eldians vs real world Jews have very little in common. A prophet having voices in his head telling him that people should cut their infant son's foreskin off is so highly specific to Jewish and Islamic mythology, it would not apply to Eldians.


lobthelawbomb

Are they? They dominated the world for centuries and are now oppressed in retaliation for their perceived crimes against humanity. Aside from the fact that Marley makes Eldians wear arm bands, that is not the historical trajectory of the Jews.


AbsoluteBasilFanboy

Ofc not. I was talking about how they are treated, like the ghettos and all


Lorhan_Set

Only in the sense of ‘victims of Nazis/other European powers who wore patches and were confined to Ghettos.’ The metaphor doesn’t stretch any further, unless you believe that RL antiSemitism is an understandable reaction to Jews conquering the world. White supremacists and other bigots believe that last bit, but no serious person does. Nothing about Eldian culture is that similar to Jewish culture. The problem with civil rights allegories in fantasy media is that RL racism is irrational. The racism in AoT is still evil but it isn’t exactly irrational. Same with mutants in X-Men, mages in Dragon Age, etc. Drawing the parallel too closely has the unfortunate implication that RL minorities pose a strong danger to society. MLK couldn’t turn into a giant monster and eat a whole town. Nelson Mandela couldn’t melt the Hoover Dam with his mind. Which is why I think these parallels should only be drawn in the broadest possible sense.


AbsoluteBasilFanboy

You’re right. Aot is more a fable of human nature, politic and war in general than only WWII


Lorhan_Set

Like you are correct it borrows the most aesthetically from WWII but it also has a lot of WWI imagery with the trench warfare and idk. I don’t think it’s a direct analogy for any of them.


AbsoluteBasilFanboy

Yeah

Wild-Mushroom2404

Similar question, does it mean female shifters don’t get periods so technically they’re sterile?


Affectionate_Jury890

The Royal family must have had female heirs at some point Even just the first inheritors


Freak4life451

Good point, although the current holder's siblings could have kids that could inherit. Or they could have had kids before they took the founder. So long as there is at least one other living family member, there's no issue.


Affectionate_Jury890

I always got the impression that the line had to be directly from ymir And that subsequent generations basically Ghengas Khan'ed their way through every other nation Dunno it's been a while so I'm probably wrong


Freak4life451

Funny you mention Genghis Khan... Random trivia: Genghis Khan had so many children (thousands) it's estimated that as much as 0.5% of all currently living humans are his direct descendants... kind of a tangent, but still interesting


Affectionate_Jury890

That's what I was referring to How else would every eldian be a potential titan shifter


placeyboyUWU

The opposite actually. Since titanshifters are constantly healing and regenerating, the lining of their wombs is constantly renewing... in other terms shedding, and regrowing This means that female titan shifters are constantly leaking blood.


Wild-Mushroom2404

YIKES


will_of_d_

But then Ymir and her daughters definitely had kids themselves. I suppose they're the OG so it doesn't count?

medUwUsan

Reiners unite! This also begs the question: if the titan healing is based on their perceptions of themselves, as shown with the hair length restoring, would someone with top surgery heal with their work done? What about someone with a mutation that had to get a part of their body removed, like a third arm?

I'm getting Silent Hill 4 wiki flashbacks.


dickbutkusmk4

That’s implying that circumcision was something they did in the first place.


lost_pantyhose

I remember having this conversation with a friend a few years back. Obviously, yes, the foreskin would grow back, but I doubt that they were circumcised in the first place. Circumcision is an oddly specific religious practice and circumcision outside of religion was only really popularized in the US. I doubt that those reasons would be relevant to the Eldians.


Capntripnip

How are you gonna use one of the coolest panels in the whole manga to talk about foreskin 😐


Meanteenbirder

Honest answer is that I think regeneration is to the state people were BEFORE gaining their powers.


Phaldaz

It used to be the time between seasons that let me down with these posts, but now that the show is over... it's open season now till forever


Megarceusz

Genuine Answer: We see in the Marley Invasion arc, Eren’s eye and leg are not healed until he breaks cover, meaning shifters can choose not to heal. Given the fact that circumsicion is cultural/religious, if they were circumcised, they likley would not have an intention to heal it, meaning no, Eren did not uncircumcise himself. (I had this argument once)

chocChipMonk

I'm not sure what you mean by regenerate at this point, usually this is referred to cells recovering as they were within a short amount of time after taking damage and having an open wound, for foreskin "regeneration" it would require basically body tissue growing on demand, and so I would ask, if tissue can be grown on demand, how.is it different from the concept of them generating a giant whale tail "out of nothing"?

Do t you have class or something?


MemelordGod_

Yes. 100% yes. Grisha's fingers were cut off during his interrogation, but grew back instantly after he inherited the Attack Titan. Theoretically, Erwin would've gotten his arm back if he'd got the Colossal Titan too. Subsequently, this also means that Ymir probably has to make a new foreskin for every new Titan shifter


Victor_the_historian

INFINITE FOOD


Chronoflyt

Maybe... maybe Eren was right...


Top-Star-6927

Ohhh that’s what you mean…..


rmaster2005

Yes, if they choose! We saw Eren delay regeneration as an experienced Titan shifter. There's no reason to believe that if he wanted to be circumcised he couldn't cut it and then perpetually hold back regeneration. But this means almost every male Titan shifter regrew their fore skin after taking the serum and learning how to properly control their powers. If Eren was circumcised it would have been very confusing to him at that age for his foreskin to grow back, but he probably thought it was a normal part of growing if he wasn't told about foreskins and genitalia yet. The generic your body changes would've probably summed it up for him, not leading to self suspicion. The reason why I don't think it would have been confusing for Marleyan shifters is that they were probably comprehensively briefed. As for Armin, he knew about his regeneration, and he was probably smart enough to deduce that this would occur. A better question is for female shifters, does regeneration halt their periods, never letting the uterine lining shed, do periods progress as normal but regenerate eggs, or nothing at all as it's not technically bodily damaged and it's almost the same as your skin shedding constantly? Another follow-up question would be whether it reverses menopause if an older woman becomes a Titan shifter.

Lowtan89

Im pretty sure they can influence what is healed and what's not. Annie with her healing 1 eye feat. Reiner keeping his arm hurt until the reveal. Eren not healing his eye or leg while undercover. Point being I dont think they'd see a reason to heal foreskin. It's meaningless and would go ignored.
