SNK SPOILERS + LEVIHAN HEADCANON:
This is a continuation/additional thoughts regarding @pinkweirdsunsets’ take on Levi’s last panel in the Shingeki no Kyojin manga. For the link to their headcanon, click here.
Maybe this is why he opted not to cover his scarred eye too? Because that part, the right one, was Hange’s good eye (more on this later, quick detour first).
I’ve always find it amazing how they both have scenes where they foreshadowed each other’s injuries (from the anime):
It’s like, “This is your pain. And I know it. I understand it.”
And it’s not just that. It’s not simply sharing each other’s pain, but completing each other’s strength too!
It’s too much of a coincidence that they lost sight from the opposite pair of one another. I mean, look (manga panels):
THEY FUCKING COMPLETE ONE ANOTHER. NO DOUBT. This is intentional (everybody say, “Thank you, Isayama Hajime!”).
And the fact that words are no longer necessary but genuine gazes are enough to convey that they care for each other just screams PURE LOVE. See for yourself (manga panels):
JUST LOOK AT HOW THEY LOOK AT EACH OTHER:
These panels are filed under: YEARNING.
Going back to the main point, Levi Ackerman, the man who wanted the peace and quiet and who actually had it, went out of his comfort zone all for Hange freaking Zoë. Because he knows that’s what they would do had they lived throughout all the mess.
And that’s why he doesn’t cover his right eye. He’s still carrying their shared pain, their shared darkness. It’s like he’s saying, he’s showing them,
“This is how the world looks like without you, four eyes...”
“...Only half-good. Half-wonderful. Half-bearable. Half-beautiful...”
“Are you still watching?”
“Please keep watching over us. Over me.”
[*sobs uncontrollably because I really really really love them*]
EVERYBODY SCREAM: LEVIHAN SOULMATES!!!
