most people seem to believe that anton’s just symbolically fate/death but this i find this highly unlikely. how is this one guy capable of committing like anywhere between fifty to possibily (probably) infinite murders in broad daylight? you’re telling me he chokes some officer in the middle of a police station while in custody, walks out, and nobody else there stops him? or that he happened to be at that one place the day the mail came that pointed him to where moss was? too many strokes of luck in my view.
also he seems to be completely unaffected by pain as well. a bones sticking out of his arm and he doesn’t so much as grunt, he panics a bit but that’s it, he doesn’t actually seem hurt, more so worried about the injury.
while i’m talking about the car crash, i will address many say that this scene somehow proves he’s human just like anyone else. but it doesn’t. he may get into the crash but it doesn’t stop him. no, a couple of kids show up by """chance""" to help him and he keeps going, presumably towards a hospital.
am i claiming anton IS fate? no, of course not, the car crash catches him off guard and concerns him. instead, i believe he is an agent of fate, that he is carrying out fate’s will and due to this he is assisted by it. that fate ensures he doesn’t die. throughout his rampage he constantly avoids authorities, despite the extreme luck required for it. sure some of it was due to his sheer proficiency, but in reality most of what he did wouldn’t have been possible without extreme luck, or fate literally ensuring he succeeded.
