What really happened at the end?
A meta-analysis that would focus on what happened to Levi after they have won the battle.
I want to give credits to: @riva-koucha ‘s analysis. What I’ll be discussing here is to support her earlier analysis.
Why is Levi with Onyankopon?
I will start with this one. Many of the SNK fandom had started to think that Gabi and Falco have been the two who are taking care of Levi.
Might be right, but mostly, the possibility is very high in being wrong. Why is that?
Gabi and Falco have both still have their parents. Let’s be realistic here. It’s sweet that Levi have kids to take care of him... but I want to be realistic. We all know the love that Falbi have over their parents and it would be odd to think that they would just adopt some Ackerman. I’m not going to explain deeper, but in a literal sense, Gabi and Falco are not with Levi. They only visited him and hence would accompany both Onk and Levi... to Paradis.
Next. Why Onyankopon then?
I reread SNK Chapter 132-139 again. Yes, unfortunately, and it hurt so bad that I can no longer feel anything at all.
Onyankopon’s trust and respect towards Hange had blossom a great impact on him. The lines he had said above, only proved his willingness to do anything as a consequence of what the anti-marleyan did.
And I think that would only strengthen the panel why is he with Levi. Because Levi was Hange’s best friend. Something that Onyankopon wanted to repay Hange’s sacrifice. And it is very natural to take care/assist of the person who had done a great service in stopping the war.
Where is Levi and Onyankopon? And why are they there?
I would like to assume that they are in London. Looking by the panel above, we could see the big ben there as well as Onyankopon’s race.
London is very known for good tea. Our best boi Levi deserves a good ass tea for all that happened. I can’t say that they both lived there, but I would like to think that they were out there for a vacation or a tour before Levi truly goes home (will be discussed later)
I think many people already assumed that the Alliance have been going on and off Paradis and other nations. But let’s read again the lines below:
The time skip had only been three years.
There are many factors that would prove that the Alliance have never returned to Paradis during that three years time skip. (I won’t discuss how Mikasa went back maybe she swim or whatever. I don’t want to talk about her)
Because the rumbling destroyed 80% of everything. How could they go back? Transportation resources have been destroyed and it would take not just a year to rebuild anything that would take them back to Paradis.
And it was expected for them to receive hate. Likewise the quote, do not add more fire when it’s burning.
And lastly, this is the very obvious proof.
Their families were taken by Historia. If they were just going round and round the world, the dialogue above is unnecessary to say.
So... going back to Levi.
Same for Levi, he haven’t yet returned to Paradis. And this time, he will return back to his HOME after three years. And how is that?
Look at the plane’s direction and look at the direction where they are going.
If we are going to use real life directions... and they are in Big Ben. Well then the direction they were heading to only indicated an airport.
More proof? I think the wheelchair would explain it too. Levi is not amputated but the fact that he limps when he would be walking, only shows that he needs to be using a wheelchair whenever traveling long distance trip.
I needed to fucking search shits about the bag Onyankopon hold, and it’s very uncanny to think why only hold one.
Take note that Onyankopon and Falbi lives outside Paradis. And it’s only Levi who lives at Paradis... safe to say that the travel bag is for him.
So yeah... Levi’s going back home.
“...have appeared on Paradis... to advocate for peace.”
I want to use riva-koucha’s analysis that the word used there is not just ‘appeared’ but ‘RETURNED’
And I’m not the only one who could see why Levi shows no smile at his last panel (whereas everyone else was smiling) it’s because I assumed that he has unfinished business with someone who just disappeared after he had told her to STAY WITH HIM. You know who I’m talking about.
That’s all. It might also be my last meta-analysis, (who knows) or maybe another when someone could caught my eye. I do not want to discuss about Mikasa, I have nothing to say about her. That’s how disappointed I am.
But yeah, again, Levi’s coming back home. Better not Mikasa waste this opportunity.
PS: I will answer the asks you sent me. I just need some time with Levi doll, I am really not feeling well. But thank you for understanding! (:
