Also one point of criticism from ending haters is regarding Mikasa being the only one in 2000 years to set her free, like couldn't Ymir find someone in the span of 2000 years who would do the same thing Mikasa does? But I think people forget that we are not dealing with just humans here, but Titan powers are in play too. The reason it had to be Mikasa has to do with Eren being the only individual in history to possess the founding titan while not being tied to the royal family or having royal blood...and he was also the only individual in history to possess the Founding Titan together with the Attack Titan simultaneously. I think the Attack Titan represents Ymir's desire to rebel and be free from the royal family's will to make choices of her own, but she just needed that extra push and I think Eren was that extra push . Also, Eren not being from the Royal bloodline was the beginning point of Ymir's freedom from slavery to the royal family. She had no will of her own before Eren.
Also, I am gonna paraphrase a great comment I saw on another video explaining the Ymir mystery, which makes so much sense and puts some scenes in the finale into perspective:
Ymir had 3 locks that were preventing her from moving on, and Eren, Mikasa and Armin all had a role to play in releasing each of her locks. For Eren, it was helping Ymir see that she is human and free to make her own choices and not follow King Fritz's orders(this happened in episode 80). For Armin, it was showing Ymir what life is really about with his conversation to Zeke in the paths...like there's more to life than just multiplying and propagating the species. For Mikasa, it was to show her that she can let go of the bind her unhealthy "love" for Fritz that held her from moving on from the paths by leading an example when she finally decided to put humanity ahead of her love for Eren.
We've gotta remember that Ymir was just a kid when Fritz groomed her, and I bet she had no idea what love entails, and the time they were living in was so different and far removed from our time, so we gotta look at things from their perspective.
Yes! There is sooo much at play here, I couldn't even possibly begin to discuss it all in just 7 minutes. Thanks for your really detailed response, and it's awesome that you gave credit to someone else for their comment as well.
mann this is why I can't understand how people dismiss this ending so fast, there is sooo much to think and talk about and they don't even try. This is super interesting stuff and makes so much sense
dude yes!!!! I've been seeing this point being made everywhere, at that point I'm just like did we not see the same story being told. Some even say that histora should have been yimr's choice lol. Don't get me wrong histora is a great character but she has nothing to do with the attack titan, or the love being portrayed to someone with power that eren has with the founding. What do you think tho? Anyways have a good one. ☺
@@oElleryExactly, like there's a lot of layers to this. It takes sitting down and actually deeply thinking about these stuff, instead of just dismissing it as poor writing and a last minute asspull just because you don't fully understand it. Thank you for making this video, it really helped me further understand the Ymir mystery.
@@lulupreciosa Yeah Historia's love for Ymir(the fake Ymir) was normal and Ymir wasn't even powerful. Their love was deep don't get me wrong, but although it was hard for them to separate and for Historia to let go, she let go easily. She just doesn't meet the criteria, like Mikasa does.
Yimir loved king fritz because she didn’t know what real love looked like. Mikasa loved Eren because he cared for her(even if he didn’t like to show it) in the end Mikasa killed eren because it was her only choice if she didn’t the rest of humanity would have died and the titans curse would continue. Mikasa exercised her own free will both when she protected eren and killed him which is something yimir didn’t know how to do. Yimir learned how to use free will from mikasa example. This would allow yimir to free herself from her servitude and end the titans curse. But Mikasa never truly wanted to be “Free” of eren because to her eren was never a burden to be free of. In the end they learned that Mikasa was never a slave and yimir was never in love. The sad conclusion that we are left to face is that yimir never got to be free and Mikasa never got her love because in the end they both sacrificed what they wanted the most for the greater good.
It simple, Mikasa know how to "Let it go" Eren, Ymir learn from Mikasa and she also let her love towards King Fritz and his descendant go away, so she finally find peace.
I agree. She seemed to be at peace in the final moments. Thanks for commenting!
ymir could have learnt that from like almost every break up over the past 2000 years
One of my favorite things about AOT is that the writing is, so layered that their is room for many different interpretations, and each one that I hear gives me a new perspective to consider the themes for the story from, which in turn all adds to the complexity of it. Which makes me ask the question did the author have an intended interpretation that we were all supposed to subscribe to? Is his the only correct one, or are they all valid?
There are some themes he definitely intended to convey. I think most authors are thinking about this to some extent. The interesting thing about writing is that sometimes you can accidentally create a story that causes people to think about things you never originally intended. So there was probably some of that going on, too! Thanks for the comment 😺
Everything ties back to Eren at the end of the day. He is indisputably the *worst* Eldian in history who kills 80% of the human population; a monster. King Fritz was a monster too, but Ymir couldn't just "fall out of love". On paper, Mikasa is in a near identical situation. I think Ymir felt like she needed to see what kind of person would fall in love with the worst monster of all time. Would they make the same choices/mistakes? What would they be willing to sacrifice? Would they let go of their love for the sake of greater good, like she couldn't?
Only Mikasa's life can answer these questions.
That's a very neat observation! Emotionally speaking, my brain thinks King Fritz is a more "evil" person because he does actions that make me feel disgusted in how he is behaving. But Eren must have killed way more people in the end! It was very easy for me to miss this comparison because we've known Eren for so long and it's easy to give him a pass, I guess... 😹
Yup and I think that's super intentional on Isayama's part. Not only is the finale hyper-focused on "see? he's still a good guy!", but we're also never really shown the devastation first-hand. The number 80% is just kinda dropped and we just have to accept it as fact. I think this was an intentional choice to allow readers to continue relating to Eren on a personal level, but as a wise man once said, "no he's crazy and he needs to go down".
TL;DR: the writing is fantastic
That's very astute. Since Eren is the one with the founding and attack titan (a particularly devastating combination), he puts Mikasa in the tough situation of having to resolve her love for Eren but the fact that she needs to save humanity. Mikasa may be the only person in history who is in a situation that Ymir can truly empathize with. It had to be Mikasa at the end of the day.
Ymir couldn't do what Mikasa did, and she had to see it to know that it was possible. This ties in with Eren's conversation with Ymir where he is the first person to suggest that she has the ability to choose freedom. Mikasa completes the cycle that Eren starts with Ymir, specifically, that she can choose (Eren's shtick) to still love people and let them go (Mikasa's shtick).
Eren and Mikasa's obstacles combine to show Ymir the way. At least that's how I interpret it.
cool observation, but Armin has killed lots of people and I didn't see Ymir look to him and Annie
They were both in love with monsters, but unlike Ymir, Mikasa sacrificed her love to stop evil.
What still confuses me is just how much of what Eren does is really his will and how much is constructed by Ymir? Eren asks her if she has waited 2000 years for him to find her and they implant that freedom seeking mindset that we know him for into young Eren. Is Eren just a puppet of Ymir for the purpose of freeing herself, or is their meeting just pure coincidence?
I feel like I could make an entire video just about this one question!
Thanks for commenting!
I don't know for sure, but AoT has only one timeline. Anything that happened in the future manipulating the past was always gonna happened and there is no answer to the question of which event caused which. Put simply as an example, there is no answer to "Did future Eren guide the smiling titan to his mother, or did those events happening in the first place force him to do it?" As Eren put it while talking to Armin: "There is no past or future. It all exists simultaneously".
Went a little off topic there sorry... but 2 more things.
1. Eren's search for freedom seems to stem from when he was a baby (Grisha's words while holding him) which could be a trait specifically of Attack Titan inheritors (either the powers tend to always fall on people with those values in the first place, or changes them once they inherit it. But Eren was influenced before inheriting it by his father and other life events).
2. The memories Eren sees in ep1 could be part of the reason he became so extreme with his search for freedom, influencing him even further. But I don't know if that comes from Ymir or his future self when he got the founder's powers. I believe it's more likely to be Eren. It wouldn't make sense to me to manipulate the world in order to get the answer you want out of people's resolves. People's resolves would ultimately mean nothing since you manipulated things to happen that way.
it would help if there is a right answer
Lmao.. The Masterpiece Ending
Actually Ymir did not control any of Eren's actions. Eren was free the entire time ever since he activated the rumbling.. Eren saying that Ymir waited 2000 years for him means she had been stuck there for 2000 years in hopes of someone like Eren from the Eldians being borned who could probably set her free some day with the help of titan's powers. Ymir was only witnessing what Eren was doing and went along with him
I also think it was clever on Isayama's part to have the story of these friends sort of complete the bigger story the way they started it. Mikasa has the strength to do what is needed, and Armin has the wisdom to carry everything forward. While Eren is the one who is the glue, and brings those two parts together.
Well said. And thanks for the comment 😼
I'm glad I found this video and read this comment. I just watched a video before this ranting about Ymir in the ending of AOT... Figured I leave the comment I left on that video here...
I think the parallels between Mikasa and Ymir highlighted the difference between power and strength. Where Mikasa had the strength to recognize the man she loved has become evil, and therefore kill him, Ymir only had the power to serve the man she loved despite his evil, sacrificing herself for him. Moistcritical pointed out how the finale put a moment in the spotlight between Mikasa and Eren, in which if Mikasa had confessed to Eren, they would've run away into hiding while Marley invaded Paradis but Mikasa didn't confess so Eren went with his plan. Going off his comment, Ymir is mute. Mikasa had the power to speak but not the strength whereas Ymir never had the strength to speak, expressing herself the only way she knew, action. She had her tongue cut out and while that (should've) grown back from Titan powers, she still never said a thing, she only acted, constructing Titans out of sand. I think what's going on here is it takes strength, not power, to speak. This ties into Armin and "the Heroes" Erin was setting up, seeking more diplomatic means of peace rather than war. Mikasa did not have the strength in that moment to confess to Eren but Eren wasn't evil yet, to her at least, but despite being powerless (in terms of Titan shifting), she was able to kill Eren for her lack of words, as opposed to defending him (per usual across the series) like Ymir did for King Fritz. Lastly, I think this also ties into the Scouts, who despite feeling and being powerless in this cruel world of man-eating giants, had the strength to continue fighting, press forward, and go beyond the walls. The Ackermans' exemplify this quality with Levi and Mikasa.
Sorry for the long read... But I think this fits with what you were saying about the main trio and with what Ellery said about the curse of the Titans being the curse of loving someone who is toxic- Ymir only found the strength to let go of who she loved (or be free of her curse) after watching Mikasa.
That's awesome! I never made the connection between Mikasa remaining silent, and Ymir literally having her tongue removed. Really interesting! @@jhw1235
My husband who is not an anime fan watched through half the final episode and said it was good. Once all the Ymir/Mikasa, Armin/Eren stuff came up he literally said "What the fuck"
You have a great explanation to help give me a little peace.
That is too funny. 😹
At least he liked the action scenes!
this video actually helped me complete a lot of the conclusions i had with the story, that i found particularly tough to understand and ig kinda articulate into words. this felt really satisfying. thanks!
Thank you, Barries! That's really kind 🤗
I believe Ymir could have been waiting for Mikasa because Mikasa is the one who gave Eren a proper burial under the tree which in the end people speculate to have a new founder (source of all living matter/weird worm thing) inside it. It’s possible that the other characters would have just destroyed Eren’s remains? There’s a couple things wrong with my theory though like I’m sure armin would also give him a proper burial and also how would Ymir know of anything that happens after Eren dies.
It's interesting, but I agree with you. I don't think Ymir knew what happened afterwards. Thanks for commenting!
people have been hating on Mikasa for years just because of the love she has for Eren calling it an "unhealthy obsession" but they refuse to see her situation and circumstances along with the world she was born in. In the end that same love became the reason why Ymir could relate herself so strongly with Mikasa and finally letting that love go is what caused her to be free from her torment and to end the titan powers
She has been in her head the whole time. So Ymir knew she would be the ultimate savior as she can see the future within the path. The tragedy and the end of the curse was set in stone from the beginning.
True! Free will vs a determined future...
It's a lot to think about. Thanks for commenting!
Huh, I never thought about how big a role Erwin had in The finale
After I wrote the script I was pretty surprised at how much time I ended up talking about both Erwin and Armin 😹
1) Does eren said same thing to all his friends which he said to armin?
2) How akreman and eldian related?
3) Can eren bring people back to life like armin did with previous Titans at the ending?
4) is yimir free?
And now there is not PATH?
5) how Jean and his friends saw shasha in the ending which fades away?
1. He said something different to each person. For example, he told Connie that his mom would be okay and turn back into a human.
2. They were either immune to the powers or they were modified and made immune to it. But this is one of the reasons the king inside the wall tried to wipe out their families
3. I don't think so but I don't know about that.
4. I think she faded away. The Paths might still exist but nobody can reach there anymore? Something like that.
5. It might have just been a vision or they might have really seen her in the Paths before the connection faded.
@@oEllery shasha was in the real world.
And same with levi friends
@@oEllery does he said to Connie about his mom turning back?
@@Anonymous-vk7ig I worked on this video a few months ago so I don't remember everything. Connie says that Eren told him that his mom would be okay and would become Human again.
@@oEllery and one more thing that every friend of eren(EXCEPT GABI,HIS FREIND AND CART TITAN) ONLY know about his true motive which they remember AGAIN when eren died?
Ymir didn't loved king Fritz, that's the same as saying Krista loved Reiner or Dazz… Ymir/Krista had a need to please everyone and not a specific lover. Mikasa never had a special highlight, that's why the author did what he did..
Ymir saved Historia so that Historia could save Eren and Eren could save Ymir, the same words that Historia said to him in the cave were repeated to open Ymir's eyes.Mikasa remained attached to Eren even after his death, while Historia managed to kill Rod Reiss (who was also a king) with no resentment
Thank you for sharing your insights 😋
I think saying Mikasa and Eren parallel to king fritz and ymir is understatement. Ymir is lacking will of freedom which is inherited by Eren coz he wanted freedom badly and other trait of ymir is how she love King fritz without arguing his inhumane actuons but Eren is not king he actually love Mikasa but he can't confess her coz if he do then Mikasa never kill him that's why he keep distance from everyone.and come to Mikasa he do what actually ymir can't do kill his love for sake of orher happiness.mikasa is never a slave and eren is never a king.rhey both do what they want . Eren keep moving forward aside his own happiness and Mikasa keep loving eren by his own free will
Ymir and King Fritz is similar to Mikasa and Eren. People may not like to admit it but Eren is a jerk to Mikasa. Especially in Season 1. He’s not as bad as King Fritz because Eren does care for Mikasa.
Yeah I agree Eren is nowhere near as bad as King Fritz but there's even a scene where he headbutts Mikasa. And he's pretty mean to her in general...
How? Abusing ymir and using her as a slave against... What, exactly?
Where is the line between Ymir's will and Eren's will? At times Eren describes being being a slave to a predetermind outcome, yet he clearly had some wiggle room to make his own plans. If the best plan he could come up with still resulted in 80% genocide then why not do the euthanization plan, because Eren and Zeke touching would have always released the rumbling through Ymir?
That's a great question! My friend and I were just talking about the same thing yesterday: Was killing 80% really the best possible plan??? I'll talk about it in my follow up video 💜
The future was determined, but it was still determined by his will, he couldn't change it because his mind was set. He said he could never accept the euthanization plan, and he said he wanted to do the rumbling during his talk with Armin. He wanted to reach that view he saw after initiating the rumbling in s4p3, his hope for the outside world was always for it to be unoccupied
The predetermined outcome was only predetermined because of his own stubbornness. He was basically a slave to himself. Eren would have never accepted sterilization and would always try to trample the rest of the world. And so the future reflected that.
Your explanation is really quite good, it has its problems, but it's good.
However, if Master of Foreshadowing Isayama had planned this ending with this intention from the outset, it would have looked different and many logical questions would not have been raised. In particular, something like "Only Ymir knows..." is an incredibly unsatisfactory answer from an author and Isayama knows that very well. That's why I think this ending is still a provisional solution, for which he has even apologised.
I did the best with what I had available. Thanks for commenting! 😺
Only Ymir knows!
I did my best to understand it! But it's true!
Only the founder Ymir really knows that! w
Thanks for commenting
If Eren wanted a long life for his friends. How could he watch them nearly be killed when they all tried to stop him? And also fight Armin as colossal?
He couldn't stop them from fighting him then again he wanted to destroy bthe rest of the world so he couldn't control them. Also Eren fighting colossal wouldn't kill armin 🤷🏻♂️
If he did nothing, like the alternative timeline he and mikasa escape all of this to the woods after war of Marley, all the friends in paradis will dies when they retaliate(with those Flying boat)
It's a really tough question. I want to talk about it in a follow up video.
Okay so, why did killing Zeke stop the rumbling?
I'll add this to my next Q&A video! Thanks for asking. 😼
Rumbling requires founding titan(Eren) get in touch with royal blood(zeke, or Historia)
Without Zeke, Eren couldn't of become the Founding Titan. That's why they fused together when Eren became the Founding Titan.
He needed royal blood (Zeke) for the rumbling
But eren already by passed this by freeing ymir in the eye scene. The royal blood is to tell ymir what to do. That's no longer needed after eren has access to it.
BECAUSE YMIR WANTED TO SEE AN ASIAN KISS A DEAD HEAD, STOP COMPLAINING THIS IS BRILLIANT just like at the end of SAO first season Kayaba no longer remember why he created a game that kills you
Is that what she's into? 😹
Mikasa and eren just two person who trapped in the shit fate😅. Without it they are just cute couple
But Mikasa let go of her love for eren, this is why she cried 3 years later und even wore the scarf for the rest of her life. She did however let go of her obsession
True! She didn't give up on loving him, even in the end. I should have said it that way instead. Thanks for sharing your insight!
Obsession ain't really the right word....the desire to stay side-by-side with someone you truly love is pretty normal, actually.
@ushnikmitrathis is not an obsession. The comment above yours literally stated that "the desire to stay side-by-side with someone you truly love isn't an obsession".
@ushnikmitraalso, in real life when your true love dies, some people prefer to be buried next to them. So it's pretty normal.
@ushnikmitra maybe she did marry someone in the future. It could be Jean or another man. It's totally fine to move on in life, you know... but some people don't seem to get that.
like eren said past and present can occur at same time so when people says mikasa is the only one who does it they are literally wrong
eren and armin played a big part in it
eren gave her a choice for the first time she had a choice and she did rumbling because she hated humanity but armin played a big part in it because armin told to find meaning in their lives that life is bad but there are little moments which are precious then ymir had guilt becasue of that and we are shown that ymir could have let that spear and she could have spend days with her daughter and in the end then ymir finally looked into mikasa thinking what could she do
The ending is bad because it makes no logical sense.
The way in which even the last arcs develop does not follow from the previous ones, and even if we let that aside:
>the sins of the fathers once again fall onto the children, they are raised to die in a war
>this hate develops into a global war, "LMAO 139/11"
>the titans are back
>Eren's character gets ruined for lord knows what reason behind Isayama's curtains and instead of having our generation's Evangelion we get this terrible disaster
Just stop escusing bad writing, if Isayama REALLY wanted something on that line to be the ending, then he made a TERRIBLE job by making a story which has NOTHING to do with that.
[perfect example is that Eren NEVER thought about Mikasa in a romantic way, NEVER, you CAN NOT find ONE example of where it is ; // ; another is trying to say "Eren's INTERNAL MONOLOGUE was a LIE!" A LIE TO WHO!? Is he breaking the fourth wall? WHY THE HELL WOULD HE BE LYING IN HIS OWN HEAD!?!?!?]
There's definitely some interesting considerations, especially regarding Eren's internal monologues. I'll talk about it in my follow up video, so thanks for bringing it up! Do you know which chapters this occurs? It will make it easier for me to find if I have examples.
@@oEllery The "chapters focusing on Eren's characters" are Chapter 130 and 131.
People either completely ignore them, or people like Invaderzz like to use 131 to say that "Eren has always been an amoral, apathetic psychopath who just wanted to kill people" by willingly painting the "it was not like in Armin's book" as "yuck, people!" instead of "we're taking back what was stolen from us by the titans! We will be free and prosperous!".
I will actually subscribe just to be certain to see the next video.
I argue about the ending's terrible quality because I care.
Check out Attack on Titan No Requiem, which is a fan ending which actually addresses the themes of the story properly (too bad it's not yet finished, part 4 of 6 will be out soon), and please, try to use that in your video too.
@@oEllery Oh yeah, stupid me, I actually made a project/video about AoT too, personally. It is on my channel, BUT since copyright shot me down the "not copyright proof" version is in the description.
That will tell you everything about the story.
It's cause Isayama grossly overestimated the amount of braincells his audience had. You can't expect him to assume that people will misinterpret his story as hard as this comment did.
Attack on Titan No Requiem just proves that, and why fans shouldn't be in charge of writing
@@racool911 you should feel ashamed of yourself.
Isayama managed to make something marginally better in the ending (the scene in the pool of blood), but much more was so much worse, with the 139/11 scene and the NUCLEAR CARPET BOMBING.
The ENTIRETY of the story pointed to a 100% Rumbling ending, and at the end we got this garbage which disgusting supporters can "defend" just and only with the retcons which the garbage ending brought with itself.
PERFECT EXAMPLE:
Try to find ANYTHING before 139 where Eren found interest in Mikasa as a romantic partner.
ROMANTIC.
PARTNER.
You can't. It was a RetCon.
Isyaama realized he couldn't openly support genocide and had to come up with something utterly nonsensical to provide the means to end it. I recommend that you look up videos and actual proof for parallels between Ymir and Historia. Historia was a much better representation of her desires.
Besides, making Mikasa "the chosen one" is terribly unfair towards Eren. It was Mikasa who was obsessed. Eren actually cared about her, Armin, his people, his home, and was a great friend to EA for years.
It was just a terrible, TERRIBLE writing choice but I guess he had no choice to change what he was going for and not be accused of supporting murdering 100% of the world.
It's a really difficult subject to approach, for sure. I feel like if I make an argument that supports Eren, or one that goes against Eren, there will be lots of people who are angry with me. I can only imagine how Isayama must have felt, having to be the one who writes a story that discusses such sensitive topics. I wonder how much it influenced his writing in the end? Thanks for your insights.
@@oEllery honestly, it feels like he was just fine until he realized genocide is bad. I guess I can't say I would still carry out my original vision if I were him but... The story would have been so much better (consistent with its own premises, doing justice to its characters and such). I wonder what could have been:). I mean, of course genocide is bad - yams panicked hard. Or maybe the shipping thing just spoke to him all of a sudden. I don't know:/
I know for a lot of people, it can still be fun to discuss what they would do differently. So even with a flawed story, you can still find some value in it 😊@@zethayn
This makes absolutely zero sense. What does the Ymir stuff have anything to do with supporting or not supporting mass genocide? The Rumbling was clearly depicted as horrifying and ultimately a useless sacrifice of innocent lives. This doesn't change no matter who Ymir was waiting for. The traumatized child is not a stand-in for the opinions of the author.
Historia is also a good parallel and adds to the same themes of the show. But plot-wise she wasn't the one to kill Eren.
@@racool911 well, it's all about your interpretation of early chapters, some scenes and music, honestly. The way I see it, Historia wouldn't kill Eren, Eren would do 100% rumbling and sacrifice his friends, end of story. If you look up the Akatsuki no Requiem music video and find literal quotes of Historia agreeing to destroy world, it's more than logical. Historia being the one who - of her own merit - allows Ymir to let go, wouldn't be enough of a plot to somehow provide Yams with the means to stop the rumbling he himself forced by underbuilding his own world.
Because it was retconned. simple as that. if she really was somehow in love with king fritz then why didnt she heal when she was pierced with the spear? Right, because she obviously never loved him. she wanted to be freed... by eren. The ending got changed to satisfy braindead npc shippers who dont give a damn about the story. thanks for that
You could also ask why She saved the king from attempted assassination if she wanted the king to die, also she died because the king insulted her calling her a worthless slave.
And in chapter 122 she saw the king kiss a woman and was enamored, she had a toxic version of love
It's because human are complicated. Love comes in different ways. Ymir could love someone and still want to die, probably she saw herself killing so many people...guilt and shiet, it's tiring, or she loved him but she felt empty inside cuz King Fritz didn't show her that he cares about her as a lover.
We literally had character like Reiner with mental breakdown and complicated personality/personalities. Eren, Ymir are just as complicated cuz they are HUMAN.
The scene where she cries while eren reminds her that she is not a slave is now completely nonsensocal
@@randomusername3873 yup, chapter 121 is completely meaningless now and it doesnt make any sense that she chose Eren over royal blood (the rumbling stops anyway when zeke dies lmao) aot IS trash
@@randomusername3873 So guys like you will take what eren says at the table scene as a fact right?
The ending doesn't make sense. 😂
Why mikasa? Easy; it was never planned and came at the last minute to appease casual fans who ship Eren and Mikasa. Getting rid of all the previous character development, foreshadowing, etc
It was always about mikasa and eren my friend.
It was planned. Did you not see the pray mantis in her backstory in season 1? Female pray mantises cut off their lovers head. Additionally, when Eren was in the Santa Titan mouth, he said he would “never die in a place like this”. Ironically he dies in a titans mouth
@@allama1222 yep correct isayama had that ending in mind from the very beginning
@@mohammedakouch476Still horrifying, wtf
@@allama1222 I have no idea where people are getting this false idea that the author changed the story from. I'm like where's their proof at.
The fact we gotta do all this theories for aot means its trash
It's not theory, it is explained quite clearly in the story lol. Mikasa and Ymir all fell in love with someone who cannot respond their love, but Mikasa has the courage to break it, unlike Ymir
A lot of people get it
I like all of the theories and discussion surrounding the series! But either way, thanks for your comment!
the fact that you want information to be spoonfed to you like a baby is sad, pathetic, and childish.
Isayama left many blank holes which caused the fans to split to many opinions its like isayama thew a pipebomb and disappeared
@@mohammedakouch476 No he just let stuff open-ended for open discussions,
but of course, the animanga community isn't ready for intelligently open discussions. 💀
Every unclear thing in this anime can be solved by saying "PATHS"
I fucking hate PATHS, you can't defend this bullshit of future existing before past. Just because of PATHS alone this show is 6.5/10 and no more.
It sounds like you're prefer a hard science fiction that gives a more structured and detailed system for how magic and powers work. There may be some great anime and manga that follow this structure better!
@@oEllery Yes, this is were I came from. I read a lot of old sci-fi novels as a kid. That's why it's kinda hard to watch shows like steins gate where *SPOILER*:
"phone will beam the electromagnetic waves full of their future memories directly into their hippocampus, transferring their memories back in time" and other nonsense like that
And yet this is considered peak science fiction
