Eren Yeager, Nietzsche, and Jung: Individualism and the Warrior Archetype

2 years ago

In this video, I discuss Attack on Titan's effect on its viewers. In particular, Eren Yeager's archetypal attributes that he conveys to the viewers. I go over the Will to Power, individualism, and the warrior archetype.

Attack on Titan is a complex narrative about humanity defending itself from titans, humanoid creatures that have a taste for humans. Most of Paradis wishes to stay in the walls forever, stuck in a mode of complacency and apathy. Eren joins the Survey Corp to work toward his freedom. As he discovers more about himself and his powers, Eren goes to more extreme lengths to attain freedom. The hero becomes the warrior, as he is faced with a grim conclusion; the only way in which he can gain freedom. Attack on Titan is about the sovereignty of the individual vs the collective.
