His Good Ranking[]
What Makes Him Admirable?[]
- He helped capture two Titans for Hans to experiment on.
- He saves Mikasa's life during the fall of Monzen, taking her under his wing and training her to be an elite Titan slayer.
- He saves the Scout cadets alongside Mikasa when they get surrounded by Titans.
- When the Scout base at Omotemachi is attacked by Titans, Shikishima helps to fight them off.
- He gives Eren advice on how to fight the Titans, telling him not to give into his fears, this helps Eren to kill his first Titan.
- Though self-serving, he saves Eren from being executed by Kubal and his firing squad.
- After being confronted by Mikasa, Shikishima re-evaluates his goals and realises that they were flawed, he then proceeds to redeem himself by climbing the wall with the Monzen bomb and throwing it into Kubal's face, killing them both and allowing the debris to fall and seal the wall.
- Though his goals were extremely flawed, he was still a well intentioned extremist who wanted to liberate humanity from the current corrupt government.
What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- Simply put, he's a full blown villain for most of the movie, intending on using the Monzen bomb to blow up the Inner walls and allow the Titans to murder thousands of innocent people so he can usurp the government.
- He's far too lethal for any higher rankings, brutally killing multiple Scouts and MPs when "rescuing" Eren.
- He is responsible for the death of Sannagi, a Pure Good who sacrificed his life to save his friends from Shikishima, with Shikishima ordering his soldiers to gun him down.
- He sexually assaults Mikasa, forcing her to kiss him whilst Eren watches.
