who knows, maybe whatever the yeagerbros will see in the memories will give zeke more reasons and motivation to carry out the euthanasia plan and at this point there wont be anything eren might do to stop him unless he has to resort to killing him. Agreed, redemption arcs are so overdone these days, people forget that it's entirely possible to have complex villains without redeeming them. I agree that Zeke being redeemed would ruin his character. Complex villains without redeeming them? Liken what or who for example? The majority of GoT characters, Azula from Avatar, most of the main villains from Legend of Korra, some villains from One Piece, and Zeke from our very own AoT, provided Isayama doesn't pull a Naruto and give redemption arcs to every villain just because they're "misunderstood" Okay like Amon and Zaheer, and Blackbeard & Akainu, right?

but while Zeke isn't misunderstood per say but his perception is a bit skewered, he just doesn't see the entire picture from Eren's side of the spectrum. It's good to have both perspectives.
