idk why anyone thinks the eldians are justified lol both sides are warped war criminals and i think they're trying to make that horrifingly obvious with all the unwarranted civilian casulaties (armin literally drops a mini nuke?? you cant get more obvious than that) and the fact that half the survey corps are just like "lets throw the children out the airship" without missing a beat, while floch is fine with civilian death in earlier episodes
i think this extends to out of season 4 - the eldians used titans throughout history to terrorize everyone, but the minute the marleyans get titans on their side they basically do the exact same thing on a wwII sized scale (invading nations, etc) - and now the sides are more even again the paradis eldians are just doing the same thing again (even if the marleyans technically attacked first)
still, rip sasha and obviously im still rooting for the island demons
