  1. Feel so vindicated of someone talking about that specific moment where Eren tells Grisha to kill the Reiss family.
    I hate these time travel plots which employs paradoxes simply for the sake of it and is reacklessly handwaved away, in this case, Paths.
    Not to mention how much this moment needlessly strips Grisha of any agency for the sake of a twist. Thanks, I hate it.

    Chapter 121, completely killed in my interest in the manga going forward and it's so sad to see how it spiraled further downwards.

  2. Unironically this is why I hate Dune too LOL. I find determinism, that everything will happen no matter what and everyone will accept that…Just weird and robotic. Plus no one in Dune talks like a normal person, which makes sense because they aren’t Normal and it’s in the future. But, because of that, I can’t relate to Anything or Anyone. I don’t believe in determinism, so of course when I see it in a fictional setting I’m not really going to be swayed by it either. I think that’s where these stories become a struggle for a lot of people, why it leaves people so divided on a story’s quality—Do you believe in those mechanics, do you believe that everything will always happen no matter what, or does that thought bother you on a fundamental level?

  3. If you think the ending is perfect then you either only watched aot in your life ,or you don't understand anything about story,debating with any of you incel fan its impossible. You are going to find justification or explanation for anything or just say to others that they dont understand the story. Usual stuff

  4. YES! 2nd part was so sh1t, and that was after my favorite part of this series, just how it go downfalls that bad is so bizarre to me, and how people liked it too. Still a believer that 2nd part was not an original ending that isayama planned.

  5. For me the line "a slave to freedom" (as pretentious as it sounds) does explain a lot. He always had the "freedom" of not moving forward, of opposing his own nature (cabin scene). There was a clear path ahead of him he could've chosen not to walk on. The "slave" part is the fact, that there WAS ONLY THAT ONE PATH FOR HIM.

  6. I think the author got too comfortable in thinking everyone would think the same as him. I honestly dislike all of the characters in aot (I think they can be flat) and the fact that they over complicated everything AND made frankly sick references to 1940s Germany in season 4 is pretty terrible to me. He got cocky and hoped people would follow along with how he thought of eren

  7. I am one of those people who did enjoy the ending. Though I never thought Eren was a likeable character even from chapter/episode 1 lol.
    In my head everything Eren did was for that one simple goal of getting rid of all the titans. There was only one way to end titans forever for good and that was to get Ymir to stop making them. However how do you stop her from doing what she's been doing for a thousand years or two for the love of a long dead king? Show her someone else (Mikasa) who is also completely devoted to their love for someone (Eren) still kill them to save the world. Yet the only way to drive Mikasa in to going as far as to kill Eren was for him to do something so horrific (the rumbling) she'd have no choice. So in the end, it was all meant to happen the way it happened.
    Also yes it wouldda been nice to see some more backstory for Ymir, I don't find her love for the king so confusing, there are people in the real world in incredibly abusive relationships who still claim to love their abuser and would die for them.
    The only part of the story I take real umbridge with is the titan centipede thing. What was it, where did it come from, why does it have these abilities?

  8. It’s 2024, and people still wanna be different and literally twist Isayama intended narrative to fit their own. Disappointed in this video and tons of people too. We would suggest you take a look back word by word without being too emotional and be logical mate. And watch the last scene if Eren and Armin in the complete final episode adaptation, and NOT the final manga chapter because that’s incomplete.

  9. I thought it was stated that eren chose this course of events bc he had a drStrange-like moment where he went thru all possible timelines and chose the one that let the most amount of his friends survive and flourish

  10. My dude, you are conveniently overlooking that the entire world already wanted them dead. The entire world had already joined a coalition to completely eradicate his people. They were going to do it with or without the rumbling.

  11. Eren Yeager is just a fictional school shooter that can’t hold his desire to wipe out the humanity outside the wall in the end,except like the ending stated he was just an idiot who gain power that is equivalent of thousands nukes.(Reiners criticism is completely valid when he stated Eren is the worst person to gain power)

  12. Thanks, I needed that. Read to the end after season something 3rd half ending after the brother touch, and had some of the logical complaints laid out, but have been putting off finishing the anime because of how apathetic it made me feel. This is a great analysis of what led me to that, love your work as always so at least I can thank AoT for that <3

  13. One of the things I notice get often misunderstood is Eren's motives. The most important part is that Eren specifically says he wanted to complete the Rumbling. He didn't know he was going to lose to the alliance, or had the power to control Dina's titan until he got full access to the founder at the end of 122. At that point he saw the future that he was gonna get stopped, and tried to go through scenarios of how he could change things, how he could save Hange or Sasha and how he couldn't have. His mind became a mess and he didn't have nearly as much control as he thought he had. This isn't something that is implied, it's all explicitly stated in the final episode of the anime. A lot of Attack on Titan's end makes you have to look through and read in between the lines to come to your own conclusions about things which I can completely see the problem with, but interpretive writing has always been something I personally enjoyed.

  14. Great video. And so honest. As someone who was never a big AoT fan it has been interesting listening to so many takes about the series. The ending objectively still sucks, though.
