What was his plan in regard to his relationship with Cagalli at that point? He certainly wasn’t planning to tell her, “Hey, I know I just gave you a ring several days ago. I even say that Athrun’s decision to rejoin ZAFT is another proof that he wanted Cagalli to abandon Orb for him. Now you see why the ring is a “chain,” a tool to limit and control someone’s behavior. What he told her in their meeting on the cliff in episodes 24 and 25 is more or less, “If you want to protect or stop the Orb forces, do it the way I approve of.” He was telling her to listen to him and abandon those Orb soldiers, leave them alone to die.

This is consistent with his attitude toward Cagalli intervening in battles. It’s like, “You can do what you like to do as long as what you do and how you do it meet my approval.” What he wanted to do was, I think, to impose a limitation on Cagalli’s devotion to Orb, control what she would do for Orb. Again, in GSD episode 6, he chose to stay and continue breaking the remnants of Junius Seven to protect the Earth, which could have cost him his life without Shinn. In GS episode 48, he almost sacrificed his life to protect the Earth. He knew her job was important, and must have understood her devotion to her duties, if not her love for her country.Īfter all, he is a person big on doing the right thing and making sacrifices for it. I don’t think Athrun wanted her to quit her job right away or completely stop trying to protect Orb. Abandon her job she is quite devoted to and her country she strongly cares about. Basically, he was asking her to abandon Orb for him. But what he actually wanted her to promise is that she would choose him over Orb, over protecting Orb.Īnd this is problematic. We are returning to Athrun’s object of giving the ring to Cagalli, which seemed obvious at first: he wanted her to promise she wouldn’t marry Jona.īut now, it doesn’t seem so obvious, does it? If you take what I wrote in the last article into consideration, what do you think Athrun actually wanted?Ī promise from Cagalli, sure. This analysis consists of 6 articles: Part 1, Part 2 (this article), Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, and Part 6. When I mention GS episodes, it’s referred to as “GS episode *.”) Also, “episode *” in this article means GSD episodes.
