TORN BETWEEN DUTIES AND IDEALS
At one point, by revealing the truth, Hange unified humanity inside the wall, but after becoming the commander of the Survey Corps, Hange is in a position where she has no choice but to conceal the truth about Eren’s confinement to the citizens.
Hans is torn between the role assigned to her and the ideal of “Putting information in the hands of taxpayers.” (*1) (Vol 27, Ch 109, as pictured)
And so, Eren’s confinement leads up to the Yeagerists revolt afterwards.

FOR THE SAKE OF THE WORLD, SOLDIERS AND WARRIORS COME TOGETHER
Even as the world is engulfed in hopelessness due to the Rumbling, Hange doesn’t give up the determination to fight back.
Hange unites the Survey Corps and the Marley Warriors: people who hold different opinions join together.
Hange’s wish, to overcome pity and resentment (*2) and try to stand up for a greater cause, changes General Magath’s heart, and brings forth the strength to save the world. (Vol 32 Ch 127)

PERFOMING DUTIES AND RETURN TO COMRADES~
Hange regrets that she could not offer to Eren any hope or ideas for a solution for the Eldian people’s predicament.
In order to perform her duties, going as far as killing a great many comrades and having commanded Armin and Reiner, Hange singularly dared to take on the Rumbling.
In the end, Hange reunites with Erwin and the others. (33, 132)

*1 Alt. Translation: Hans is torn between the role assigned to her and the ideal of putting information in the hands of the People.
*2 This word 恩讐 in the dictionary is “love and hate” but I found this not a satisfying translation because it struck me as too cliche and may be interpreted wrongly. Looking at the dictionary in Japanese, this means more like 情けとあだ sympathy/compassion and resentment/rivals type of thing.
Note: I’m not perfect, I do not use a translator for my translations, and there may be some translation errors. Feel free to correct me. If you have questions why I translated something a certain way, it’s probably to sound more natural, but ask away.
