This one was just strange but the wife getting her revenge on her shriveled-up husband by dominating him was pretty kinky. For someone who was so eager to berate his wife, he sure was thin-skinned. She could've cheated on him easily but she's so loyal that she'd rather have what he's having. It's not like he could've haunted her like what happened to the lady across the street.

Most I can get out of this is that the wounded giant woman was the guy's wife fighting back after leaving her submissive side and the tiny soldiers were what's left of his inner thoughts like his dignity. The giant only died when no soldier remained and that's around the time the wife followed suit.

I think this had a lot to do with women and subservience, along with how in war men are destructive, just like how this woman felt destroyed in her marriage. (And quite possibly that her husband was a war vet, too). Despite being loyal she was terribly abused.

Then, the power dynamic shifted and the 'giant woman' was just symbolism of a destructive force awakening in her, a lot of anger at her mistreatment. In the end, she was in charge and controlled him.

The thin-skinned husband came out of the stomach of the giant woman. Kind of saying she gave birth (as he was the only one left alive). Women give life and serve. That is why she's caring for his 'thirst'.

It's interesting how she became thick skinned, probably due to abuse and he became thin-skinned from atrocities of war and from being a terribly abusive person. Yet, in the end she still destroyed herself for him.

The giant crawling woman with soldiers. Barrels and supplies strapped to her and there was even a person inside.....really made me think of the Cart Titan from Attack on Titan. A possible inspiration?
