Character Anatomy: Guilt, Propaganda, and Radicalization

Reiner Braun: The Split Self

Reiner 's psychology fracrenres long before the arc begins, but the Liberio dowmath lays his trauma bare; He emously craves death and clings to the responbility of protectitg Gabi and Falco. His confession to Eren - that he was not condin by loyalty to Marley but by a seonish deside to bee adminired - distils a lifestime of indoctination into a single, pathetic truth. Reiner' s arc is of disucution and rekonstruktion. He nos suide multitimes, lides, lides, and is continuit.
