Anime & Hallyu ..... ◕ ‿ ◕

No matter how devastated you may be by your own weakness or uselessness...

set your heart ablaze.

Grit your teeth and look straight ahead."

-Rengoku Kyojuro (Demon Slayer)

“Live… and be free. From the bottom of my heart, I love you.” – Gilbert Bougainvillea

First impressions

Honestly I love everything about those two panels.

Oswald’s unaffected calm.

Levi’s hilarity.

Jack’s fluster.

And Lacie slipping in during that short calm to take his hand and drag him away from the awkward moment.

 Oswald said that to him, Jack was like a stretch of water so silent that even fish avoided it, and when you stare into it you can only see yourself rather than Jack's true nature. 

So Oswald was probably brainwashed by Jury in the same way to obey Levi unconditionally, right?

For the record, Oswald is right-handed

But when he banished Lacie to the Abyss he used his left hand

which is the same hand Gil used to shoot Oz

The purpose from Jury’s brainwashing is from the start to force the new Glen’s to obey their master when they order them to banish the child of misfortune they were born with right before they give them the title Glen. Literally in that small period of time where the future Glen has all five chains but is still technically a servant to the previous Glen.

Oswald only thought he had a choice in the matter, but he never did because he was bound by the oath in his left arm to kill Lacie.
