Eren is written in such a way that nearly every single line of dialogue he has through out the story is fueled by an incredible, wicked irony. Truly the greatest of all time.
The way Levi clench Hange's heart and said "Shinzou wo sasageyo" gave me chills. Hange went out like a boss. Hands down the best opening episode of the year 💯
imagine... we haven't even seeing chapter 134 animated yet. 2nd part of the rumbling. Pure horror. i think its gonna be the opening for the final part.
This is why Attack on Titan isn’t just one of the greatest anime.. it’s one of the greatest pieces of fiction written in the last 30 years. Incredible story telling from Isayama. Pure cinema.
@@SaberAlter0 btw humans follow their emotions so every time they see an anime and moves their emotions they say that's the best anime but hunter x hunter stay the best for me but attack on titan come the second about the reality and the philosophy , i'm just saying no offense
My favorite part of this episode was towards the end, when the commander from Marley was making an announcement. He said when ever something bad was happening the always blamed it on the eldians and now all there hatred has come back to trample on them in the from of Eren. Im glad everyone releases that Eren wasn’t born a monster but he was made into one by the world.
@@appixx everyone gets Eren’s pov. They also get that the premise of his character is that he WAS born this way. He’s said it himself time and time again.
@@bruhmingo yeah since he was born in paradise, the only reason Eren is doing this is because Marley had been treating the eldians like devils and sending titans to paradise. If the world never hated paradise Eren wouldn’t be like that, that’s why he said “ he was born like that” because from the moment he was born his fate as an “island devil” had already been sealed he wouldn’t have freedom unless he fought for it.
I think the reason Eren only appears in his child form is because that was a time when he was innocent and ignorant and deep down wishes he still was that way therefore being in a child form he is trying to pretend that he is ignorant of himself killing all of humanity. Truly is tragic.
@@dnl_mp4 no hes right, eren is convincing himself hes not doing these things and is discovering the new world « lands of ice, etc... » that was in Armin’s book thats why he talked to armin
yea he feels so guilty about what hes doing and can’t bear to face it so he copes with it by reverting to dreaming of his childlike self and how happy kid eren would be if he could see this view, ignorant of what’s actually happening
Hange's death really captures the meaning of the Survey Corps. The winds of freedom and hope of mankind. Hange maneuvering like a bird fighting for what she believe is hope for mankind. She's also the only one left wearing the Winds of Freedom cape.
When Armin asked " in what way are you free?" He was purely asking if this rumbling was what freedom is for Eren since Eren kept saying he is free. Cause the irony is he isn't. He's trapped by the fact that he knows what's bound to happen. Like when he saw the kid being beaten up, he knew he would save him and at first he tried to ignore it as if to say he could change the future and yet he still saved the kid. Which made him say that he was just as half assed as Reiner due to his internal conflict
I’m a bit hazy since I didn’t rewatch the show before this, do armin and the team know eren sees the future. I don’t remember if they know and If they don’t, I feel like it would call into question how armin knows eren isn’t really free
@@breadboi8747 I don't think they know. But my memory is also a bit hazy lol. They always seemed confused why Eren is doing what he's doing if they knew he could see the future I think they would react different tbh. But Armin know Eren isn't free since, like Kenny said, everyone is a slave to something. Eren is a slave to his idea of freedom and is stuck in his path trying to get that freedom, so he's not free at all. That's what Armin meant essentially
I like that they showed Eren's grandparents. "Judgment Day has come for us." Imagine being killed by your grandson that you met, but didn't know it was him, smh
The first scene represent the time cycle. The future is affecting the past Eren(we are in the future basically right now ), basically your past is reacting to the first episode.the past and the future happen at the same time. Now we know why he was crying . Crazy
This scene in the anime is 2x times better than the Manga Version Rip Hange they did your death in the A way sadder that in the Manga… rest in peace with the rest of the fallen soldiers keep watching Levi from Heaven 😭😞
6:11 It's an anime original scene. Those prisoners are Eren and Zeke's grandparents. They were jailed because of Zeke's betrayal of Marley. In a cruel twist of fate or irony or whatever you want to call it. Eren murdered the last remaining members of his family.
I'll never understand how people can take such a masterpiece in with just one earbud in, takes away of the experience for sure. I can't even listen to my own music with just one ear bud in it drives me crazy
Eren is ironically the least “free” person in the show since he’s following the patterns of the future memories, compared to his comrades who are blind to everything but are making their own decisions
Absolutely incorrect. Eren sees the future memories of what's about to happen cause that's really what he gonna do. The future memories hinted at what Eren truly wanted inside.
@@yeager1234 do you not under the purpose of arming question at the end of the episode. Eren also said it’s been determined that I will kill those people. He also tested the future several to see whether they would happen. He doesn’t have control over it. He’s a slave still
@@rogueshay853 Nah, he didnt try to change it, in fact he is the one lead this shit to happen in the first place through the past. He made his own script and followed it through. Even setting up stuff before he was born. He didn't try to change anything. Not once.
What a HELL of an episode. An hour of nothing but carnage and despair. This is the most anticipated and considered the best episode of AOT, according to the fans that is and ig we can vouch too. Aside from Hange's heart-shattering sacrifice and all, We now see Erens perversion for freedom at full display, which I think is somewhat overlooked. There's more to it than just expressing his immense guilt infront of the child(Ramzi), He poured out his bottled up emotions by admitting the fact that he did what he did because of an unfulfilled dream and disappointment. Eren is, as Kenny would say, drunk on something, an idealistic freedom of a world beyond the walls that simply doesn't exist, Eren dreamed of an empty world without people, with rivers of lava, vast seas and deserts, a world to explore and discover, and instead there were people who had taken away his freedom. He internalized that idea of freedom based through the contents of Armins book, now that it doesn't exist, He initiated the rumbling primarily for the sake of that selfish desire. To him, It's far more important than saving the island, hence recontexualizing his speech that eradicating the world is merely a pretext. in short, he's just like a child throwing a tantrum because he couldn't grab what he wants despite the guilt and all. Eren is the personification of contradiction and irony, be it his actions, emotions, and the leitmotif encompassing his character. He's a god yet a devil, a victim and a perpetrator, Selfless for sacrificing his life for his loved ones yet Selfish for trampling on others lives for his desires, desires freedom yet a slave to his unfulfilled ideal freedom and nature, hes human and a monster.
Very well said & explained. I caught too. The fact he said disappointed did confirm a part of his character that is truly, evil for lack of a better term
Imagine if a race of outer space living humans descended upon earth right now and wanted to wipe us all out because of what our ancestors 6000 years ago did. There was hundreds of billions of humans outside of earth who DESPISED us. They cried tears of joy at the thought of killing us. They held a carnival about it. Would you say we were children throwing TANTRUMS about fighting them back in order to survive? Would you say we should all lay down and die for them? If I had a means to fight back and wipe them all out in order to save earth, would I be “evil”? Some of the points I see about this show are utterly perplexing. Utterly perplexing. So divorced from reality. You fight to live and you fight to be free. That’s human nature. It’s not a tantrum. The general at the end said “this is our, the ADULTS fault that caused this.” Actually think about WHY Eren is doing this.
31:16 Previous intros to the series made reference to Zeke that indicated the Beast Titan turned into other animals with each Beast Titan user. So with each titan shifter it would turn into a different titan animal.
The Rumbling is one of the most horrifying things I've read in manga and now seen in anime. Not much compares to it outside of maybe the Eclipse in Berserk.
Yeah so, the first scene with eren's dream was supposed to just be mikasa telling him "see you later" before he woke up. Thats how it was in the first chapter of the manga. Wit messed up when they didnt do it like that in the first episode so mappa had to add that scene now
The legendary freedom panel was animated perfectly. From his view he's above the clouds of steam while it transitions to all the bloodshed below in order to make his once innocent dream come true "the freest ppl are the ones who can see those landmarks". Btw those prisoners were erens grandparents
The speech the commander or general at the end gave is amazing, he realized Eren is a physical representation of the hatred for eldia the world has built for decades finally being brought back to them, that’s why he’s big asl & why the consequences are world ending
If you missed the first part where eren was crying, that was actually the first episode of aot, remember he said "he felt like he was in a long dream" he was dreaming about everything that was already happening like where he activated the rumbling that's why he was crying. So in ep 1 he really dreamed about the rumbling and everything. They just showed it again in the new ep
Hange didn't agree, she agreed that she wasn't able to give Eren a different option, or hope like she said. Also Zeke's plan involved passing down the Titans to protect Paradi, children would continue to eat their parents. Marley could still attack to take back the founder. Sneaking in again to try to steal it. It's left to chance if they even survive long enough.
I respect Steph alot. Some reactors do not understand what kind of person Eren and how the story is a tragedy. "Whoever wins, wins" and "it is what it is." I'm glad I'm able to watch your thought process and philosophy. I see it the same way, it's just tragic for everyone. even though eren lowkey wanted to destroy the world and the world kind of gave him the excuse by seeking to take away his freedom.
After watching Demon slayer, it quickly became my favourite anime, overtaking thing. But then I watched this and omg I’m conflicted because this is literally a work of art. The story of this anime is crazy. The writer literally created one of the best stories and pieces of art in tv/ anime history. I can not wait for the second part later this year. I think there’s a possibility that Eren wants them to stop him, if you remember at the start, he had a dream of the future, he was crying after seeing it. He then cried when in Marley after saving the kid, repeatedly apologising, I think he wants to be stopped but he also knows that this is how it plays out because he’s seen it happen in the future, he must be on this line, jumping between “I want to be saved” and “I need to bring ‘freedom’”
In regards to why Eren opposed Zeke's plan, besides Eren (and others) being fundamentally opposed to the idea of mass sterilization of Eldians, the main reasons why Eren didn't accept Zeke's plan, both Zeke's fake one (the one the Eldian government was willing to accept) and real one, is that ensuring the safety of Elida in both plans (until technological advancement progressed enough to make Titan powers obsolete for the fake one ands/or until the last sterilized Eldians died of old age (i.e. Historia's children) for Zeke's real plan) would require the practice of maintaining The Founding Titan power and at least one of any of the other 8 Titan powers through the practice of feeding titan power holders to successors every 13 years (with Historia's royal-blooded children being required to at least always be waiting on standby to inherit a non-Founding Titan power), in order to maintain the power of The Rumbling as basically a fantasy-analogue nuclear deterrent threat. And Eren despised and considered that practice unconscionable, particularly since it literally depended on requiring a (relatively) small number people giving up their individual liberty/freedom (i.e. being forced to be hold a titan power and cut their lifespan to 13 years) to ensure the island of Eldia's safety. And to be clear Armin and the main character Scouts also didn't like the essential requirements of either of Zeke's plans (in addition to not liking the idea of mass sterilization), but unlike Eren, if a diplomatic solution still hadn't been found before Eren's "term" was up, in order to ensure the island's safety, they would have grudgingly resigned themselves to Zeke's fake plan of using a small-scale rumbling (that would have just destroyed Marylean military targets) to establish its long-term threat as a nuclear deterrent analogue tool. Eren (and the Jaegerists) were the only ones who were willing to accept a total activation and usage of The Rumbling.
Idk how many people got this, but Eren is actually talking to Ramzi openly about his plan and crying because he saw him in a future memory and knew he would save him, ironically, killing him soon after. He’s telling him because Ramzi doesn’t speak the same language, hence he’s like “bro why are you crying.”
That scene when Eren is walking throughout Marley. If you remember last episode when everyone went to Marley for the first time and everyone but Eren was with Lady Azumabito and Mikasa was like where is Eren, Eren was doing this. And when you get to the crying scene, thats when Mikasa shows up and Eren asks her what is he to her. Just clearing that up lol
My favorite thing about the freedom scene that makes it a very powerful scene is that if you look the clouds that he is soaring in aren’t even clouds but rather its the steam from the rumbling
The kid he saved is the one we saw in the last episode of part 2, that’s the kid who brought him to his parents house and they had that huge party/feast, and why he was crying when Mikasa found him
I’M SOOO PROUD! Splinter Wolf was playing during the entrance of The Alliances (Onyankopon trying to control the flying boat and them arriving at Eren exactly in Fort Salta) GOOSEBUMPS!!! So good to hear Splinter Wolf 🫀✊🏻🔥
At the first of the episode where Eren says that he had a dream he watched the whole future and after he woke up he couldn’t remember and we was crying
This story is great it’s really unique how it blurs the lines of who is good and who is bad. It also shows what an endless cycle of violence can do. While also having the philosophical questions of to save your people are willing to sacrifice the rest of the world. I personally liked Zeke’s plan bc it lead to no violence. But ultimately you will see what Eren’s endgame and plan was. Great reactions guys 👍🏽
@@rahmelg it wouldn’t work out like that their race would come to end with Hostoria’s baby. He would be the last one until he dies. Granted if the titans carried out their life span he may inherit the abilities and change it but that plan offered the least amount of bloodshed. But again Eren has his own plan and end game which I won’t spoil.
@@kitar0777 yes the world will still hate your race but they can’t hurt you bc the outer wall Maria was going to be the rumbling to whip out key military bases. After the Eldians are deceased the world’s military would probably be back up. It still causes blood shed but less. But obviously Isayama wrote the story the way it played out. Eren’s plan will obviously be revealed in the last episode for non manga readers. But Reiner and Armin are on the right path about Eren wanting to be stopped. As a reader I didn’t like how Eren went about it his whole grand plan. But again it’s a whole philosophical question of how to protect your race from the rest of world. Ultimately we get the conclusion we get, which I was fine with. I know many manga readers didn’t like the end. It’s just a unique story and idea that we all fall in love with.
@@sproutzer Fundamentally I don't like the idea of killing yourself off because someone hate you and more of that hate will manifest when you destroy military key places. The world will find a way to wreak havoc especially when you "hit the bee nest." It may take 20 years for the military bases to recover else were and they aerial bombard with vengeance. There's nothing guaranteed about Zeke's plan when it's the world vs that small island. None of these plans would be needed if the world wasn't led by hate and attack paradis when they were trying to live peacefully.
Armin last line was "When we pull you out of that Titan, I want to ask you again, in what way are you free?" is reference to their dialogue at the round table. Since you guys clearly forgot, Armin did asked Eren that. Mikasa and Gabi were there too. Eren says he hated Mikasa and him beat the crap out of Armin happened at the same room. Translator did an oopsie when they translated "again" with "another" lol.
You guys misunderstood the ending dialogues. Armin wasn't saying "in what way are you free once we drag you out"... Armin was saying "I'm going to ask you one more thing u r not gonna like once we drag you out, in what way are you free?" The dragging out sentence was part of armin's previous dialogue. Basically armin is asking eren in general.. In what way is he free because we know eren is a slave to his own nature.
The toasted people scene reminds me on the molten fleshed, half dead people from Hiroshima picture drawings and what survivors explained how those poor souls looked like, wandering around with open arms like zombes.
I think the freedom line at the end is armin trying to get at the fact that in doing the rumbling eren is still a slave. He's a slave to his hatred, ymirs will and the concept of freedom itself
Eren is the embodiment of an unyielding will for freedom. An unstoppable force. It’s a powerful statement, but a sad and cursed life for Eren. The creator of AOT really did create such a thought provoking masterpiece.
31:04 Zeke is the Beast Titan but remember, the Beast Titan isn’t always a monkey. Falco’s Titan looks like a bird & he was a created from Zeke’s spinal fluid so he’s like a Beast Jaw Titan. Based on this info I’m guessing he can fly… plus his name is literally Falco 💀
The characters really do feel Human with all their Different Ideals and Points of View on the Matters of the Wolrd and The War that's going on that forces them to act. It's insane how This was the Authors First Manga and it was an Absolute Masterpiece that makes you wonder and think deeply about the things that's going on
Maaaaaan *Levi is the most one tortured, agonised, & have it rough in this whole series* .. & to think despite all that we never heard him say things like ( i want to die ) or any negative emotions like anyone would. *Btw very important detail to remember* , he never wanted any of this , to join the corps , save humanity,or be a warrior , unlike other ppl like Erwin & Hanji or even Eren who have purposes & goals about the whole thing. *I still remember a sentence the voice actor of Levi ones said* , he said he never liked the nickname ( *humanity strongest soldier* ) , it's just a whole amount of burden & responsibility, it's like u owe ppl , it's like u don't have a choice, it's like u don't get to choose wt u want or do wt ur heart wants, it's like for forever u should be there for the benefits of other ppl , its like there's no one else , it's unfair to have a nickname like this .
Mel's! Around 7:45! The attack titan = shingeki no kyojin =進撃の巨人 「進撃」means advancing/charging in the context of a battle rather than attacking specifically, so the nuance is lost in the translation. There isn't much that the translators could've done unfortunately. The "Charging Titan" doesn't sound nearly as good as the "Attack Titan", and it doesn't have the broader meaning that the Japanese word does unfortunately 「の」 means of, 「巨人」 means titan But attack is usually 「攻撃」 not 「進撃」 in Japan. 「攻撃」, 「進撃」 and 「巨人」 are Chinese characters and have meanings on their own. 「進」 means advance forward, go up, improve, etc. 「攻」 means attack, learn 「撃」 means beating, attacking 「攻撃」 means attack. In Japan the attack titan means kogeki no kyojin, means 「攻撃の巨人」 but the creator, Isayama, chose to name it shingeki no kyojin! It is difficult to translate shingeki no kyojin to English. The name of the Titan and the name of the show is: The titan who attacks to advance forward. That Is the more correct meaning.
The only reason ppl support eren, because they r thinking only in context of this series. They just choose whatever side they like and decide their fate, but if we see this series as a philosophical masterpiece i garantee most ppl will be against eren. in real life we can't choose where we born, which side we will be....most eren fan in real life would end up like Ramzi. One more question does global warming is a thing in eren world? if global warming exists, paradise is doomed right. Water level rise, extreme high temperature etc.
I got emotional when they were in the paths. When begging for eren to talk to them. That shit had me all sorts of fucked up 🤣 and before that the only time I truly cried was when on my 1st time watching, seeing mikasa hugging eren an her voice actress cry’s out. That’s the only time I truly cried. That moment is beautiful! That actress did an amazing job!
Those who justify Eren always use as an argument "he did for his friends", "he did it because he had no other option", both are bad arguments, fallacies, lies, he did not do it for his friends, and he had other better options (Fake Zeke Plan). He actually did it for his sickly concept of freedom that he always imagined outside the walls. And as he did not obtain it, he felt so much hate and resentment for humanity, which uses the declaration of war as an excuse to fulfill his fantasy of Armin's books, he became a fascist and work with the worst scum as Floch, he betrayed the Legion and his friends to fulfill his selfish desire, killing millions of innocent civilians. Stop defending the genocidal emo. Eren is a monster, it is established in the canon, a monster is a non-rational being.
I don't know if I'm the only one but when Eren said "I Will Keep Moving Forward" at 27:59 he reminded me of when Kaneki(Tokyo Ghoul) said something similar which is "I Will Keep Moving Forward, Just Like A Centipede." And after saying that he transformed into a Giant Centipede Looking Creature just like Eren's Titan Form which looks like a Centipede. Also, noticed how there was a Centipede in this episode.💯👌
Minutes 5:19-11:20 of the episode is the best sequence I've seen in maybe any show ever. The story behind it, ost, voice acting, camera angles, literal perfection of a scene. The low strings heavily reminded me of The Joker.
I've never felt so scared of Eren's final form, End Tail Titan. (In the original work, there was no name for this form, but it is said that Hajime Isayama, the author of the TV anime, named it in the visual release of the DVD/BD volume 4 of the final season.）Thank you,MAPPA.I'm looking forward to the fall！
I feel like once I saw this get depicted in the anime, it looks and feels more horrific seeing what people have to go through and having every mom, dad, daughter and son get stomped to death by these colossals. I still side with Eren but I still feel for the people who were innocently taken away due to the history of their own people. Just like the commander in the zeppelin said, the monster we created is coming back at us full circle and if we are to see a future beyond this I vow to not repeat the same mistakes of the past.
It was destined to happened and one man could do such a horrible thing “eren” so it’s like the rumbling was made for him and him alone. Would have like to see how zeke plan would’ve change the world though, we all know Marley would continue to conquer and enslave or races of people
When armin asks that question, the story is alluding to what Kenny said in season 3 that everyone is a slave to something. And eren is being a slave to fate. Cause as he said in the beginning of the episode, the rumbling will happen in the future. And Eren is all about freedom. So how is he free of fate if he's following it and doing its "will"? At this point it's a little trivial since I don't think Eren hasn't come to this realization already. He just wants physical freedom at any cost now. It's just an interesting question to pose to the audience
Now when I revisit that scene Mikasa and Annie having that dialogue about boarding the airship to save humanity or not, I suddenly realise they are both the same, neither Annie nor Mikasa care about saving the world, they are just wouldn't hesitate to kill, to face danger and etc. if it is for their family their love one, whoever they truly care.
This episode confused me, I thought Eren only wanted his friends to live that's why he was doing all of that, but in this episode he literally tried to kill them with the beast titan, and he said the rumbling will not stop and that they are going to have to kill him to stop him, will Eren kill his friends if they try to stop him? why would he say he wants his friends to live and then he attacks them? At this point I don't even know what his motivation is
Chill , don't get confused. Everything will be answered by the end of this show. Also eren knows already what's gonna happen to him and the whole world and to his friends, HE SEES FUTURE. That's all I'm gonna say.
@@arexarpit You're wrong. Eren can't see the future, the attack titan's power is to send MEMORYS to it's past shifters. The furtest future memory Eren got to see from his father‘s memorys (grisha) was the view of the rumbling we saw in this episode. The same view grisha saw (where he then begs zeke to stop eren).
Eren is a pos human being. No amount of trauma would make you do something like that. He did the rumbling because he wanted to see the scene Armin talked about in the book. Though he was trying so hard to convince himself it was for sake of Paradi island.
a train can’t wrap around them because the titans are leaving in a circle they’re just showing you one scene but there are Colossal titans moving out towards the rest of the world. The wall surrounded Paradis so it would only make sense that they’re leaving the island in the same formation towards the world. There’s no escaping them.
4:33 ramzi cant understand what eren is saying, because they speak different languages. This is the Time eren can be trulky honest and here he tells the real reason why he started the rumbling, because he was dissapointed, that the world outside the wall doesn´t look like the world in armins book as a kid
The thing is, that all Beast Titans weren’t monkeys, like Zeke. They all had different animalistic characteristics and powers. Zeke’s second father, the orevious beast titan was a sheep. Similarly, Zeke was a monkey. And Falco, he’s manifesting the characteristics of a bird.
No Armin wasn’t threatening Eren he was alluding to that Eren isn’t free as of this moment while doing the rumbling. He was gonna ask Eren “in what way are you free?” meaning he’s saying in some way Eren isn’t free he’s a slave. To what? That’s what we’re gonna find out but it’s probably like meaning to his own ambition and the weight of protecting everyone because he didn’t wanna commit genocide which they make very clear at the start of the episode. It hurts Eren and he wishes he didn’t have to do it but he doesn’t see another way and Eren is a slave to that because he’s doing something he feels like he HAS to do and has NO CHOICE which is the opposite of free. He’s trapped by the burden of wanting to protect his loved ones. They drive it home again by having Reiner say he thinks Eren WANTS them to stop him because he doesn’t wanna do this and wish he didn’t have to. Reiner said that, he said if it was up to him he’d wanna give the founder power to someone else and if he COULDNT he would wish someone would stop him. Then after that Eren brings them into that coordinate plane. After they talk with him he basically reinforces what Reiner says but does it in a way to make them think of him as an enemy because if they knew Reiner was right they might try to find another way because they feel bad that Eren wants them to kill him. So he did that to try to make sure they don’t second guess it and try to do anything else except kill him. Then after the talk Reiner even said that it looks like what he said about Eren was right. No I have not read the manga either.
How many times has levi's have to go though this.😭 I can feel it As you watch anime over and over, you will feel so loved and attached to it that you will feel and hurt it. Levi's lost so many people both friends I don't even know if he could shed tears anymore. We will remember you hange we will remember you. RIP Hange 💐
Armin asking Eren "In what way are you free" is just to try make him realize thats he's been a prisoner of his own fate even if he didn't want to. Everytime Eren tried to undo his own fate, he backtracked and obeyed his own futur fate. So it is an irony and pointless for him to release the rumbling on the whole world for the sake of freedom when he never truly did anything to be free of his own fate.
Ymir guided eren to free her and end the world. notice how Ymir is staring at Ramzi before getting crushed. eren stated that he saw that this kid will eventually get killed by him. all in all, great animation, the director did say that this will be emotional. RIP Hange😢 she goes out in a blazing glory.
12:00 I mean, he's right in that they are both doing terrible things, but you can't compare sacrificing people from an island to sacrificing most of the world lmao I know Steph is a hard Eren supporter, but man, let's be real, we are just "supporting" Eren because we have seen history from Paradis perspective, but objectively what Eren is doing is way more horrible, it's global genocide of innocent people that don't have anything to do with Paradis and even Eren is well aware of that, that was the point of showing him feeling so much regret in front of the kid that he saved and then ended up murdering, what Eren is doing is not right and shouldn't be supported at all, no matter what and he knows it.
From what I know about the AOT world, if Zeke had accomplished his plan then whats to stop Marley and other countries from killing every single one of the Eldians both inside and outside the wall. Don’t forget that they only leave the outside ones alive to inherit the Titan powers so they can be in control of world power Remember that Armins original plan was to use the partial rumbling to scare Marley for 50 years while the come up with a plan that most likely won’t exist. With Zeke’s plan in 50 years they will all be old people who can’t defend themselves since it’s the next generation that makes military might strong so when Marley comes that time what are they going to do with an entire civilization of old and weak people. Eren most likely saw that future hence why this is the only option

My favorite part of this episode was towards the end, when the commander from Marley was making an announcement. He said when ever something bad was happening the always blamed it on the eldians and now all there hatred has come back to trample on them in the from of Eren. Im glad everyone releases that Eren wasn’t born a monster but he was made into one by the world.
I agree, really dissapointing to see all the people who don't get Erens pov/reasoning
@@appixx everyone gets Eren’s pov. They also get that the premise of his character is that he WAS born this way. He’s said it himself time and time again.
Eren has said himself we has been this way since he was born.
@@bruhmingo yeah since he was born in paradise, the only reason Eren is doing this is because Marley had been treating the eldians like devils and sending titans to paradise. If the world never hated paradise Eren wouldn’t be like that, that’s why he said “ he was born like that” because from the moment he was born his fate as an “island devil” had already been sealed he wouldn’t have freedom unless he fought for it.
I feel sad for Annie and Airmin l hope she will be happy with him 💔❤️ l like Rianer he ssey sorry too his sister 😭💔
I think the reason Eren only appears in his child form is because that was a time when he was innocent and ignorant and deep down wishes he still was that way therefore being in a child form he is trying to pretend that he is ignorant of himself killing all of humanity. Truly is tragic.
bro...that was just the age he was when he got the Titan power...
@@dnl_mp4 that’s not it at all dumbass.. it’s meant to portray his child like ideology… and how he’s forever clinging onto it no matter what
@@dnl_mp4 no hes right, eren is convincing himself hes not doing these things and is discovering the new world « lands of ice, etc... » that was in Armin’s book thats why he talked to armin
@@dnl_mp4 he’s exactly right lol wdym
yea he feels so guilty about what hes doing and can’t bear to face it so he copes with it by reverting to dreaming of his childlike self and how happy kid eren would be if he could see this view, ignorant of what’s actually happening
Hange's death really captures the meaning of the Survey Corps. The winds of freedom and hope of mankind. Hange maneuvering like a bird fighting for what she believe is hope for mankind. She's also the only one left wearing the Winds of Freedom cape.
When Armin asked " in what way are you free?" He was purely asking if this rumbling was what freedom is for Eren since Eren kept saying he is free. Cause the irony is he isn't. He's trapped by the fact that he knows what's bound to happen. Like when he saw the kid being beaten up, he knew he would save him and at first he tried to ignore it as if to say he could change the future and yet he still saved the kid. Which made him say that he was just as half assed as Reiner due to his internal conflict
yes, this is what Armin meant by the question at the end
@@RidzkiSamsulhadi so Armin needs to kill him to make him free right?
I’m a bit hazy since I didn’t rewatch the show before this, do armin and the team know eren sees the future. I don’t remember if they know and If they don’t, I feel like it would call into question how armin knows eren isn’t really free
@@breadboi8747 I don't think they know. But my memory is also a bit hazy lol. They always seemed confused why Eren is doing what he's doing if they knew he could see the future I think they would react different tbh. But Armin know Eren isn't free since, like Kenny said, everyone is a slave to something. Eren is a slave to his idea of freedom and is stuck in his path trying to get that freedom, so he's not free at all. That's what Armin meant essentially
I really appreciate the floch character... Man really played the true devil role as the world called them.
I like that they showed Eren's grandparents. "Judgment Day has come for us." Imagine being killed by your grandson that you met, but didn't know it was him, smh
They truly deserved... They even didn't show any respect for their daughter faye death...
Eren Jeager/Founding-Attack-Warhammer Titan: "Haha and then I start the rambling and kill you with ya wife"
Mr. Jeager: "Haha...wait wha-?"
The first scene represent the time cycle. The future is affecting the past Eren(we are in the future basically right now ), basically your past is reacting to the first episode.the past and the future happen at the same time. Now we know why he was crying . Crazy
This comment deserves more likes, upvote 🙂
I have same thoughts.. and that Past Present and Future can't change because thats the path Eren chose
Believe in aoe, Eren has seen the manga timeline. He can change things

If you noticed, when Hange died, that was one of the very few, if only times, that Levi actually said her name. Usually he just calls her "four-eyes"
Sad this GOAT anime come to end…
RIP Hange Zoe💐
Her death was SAD,BADASS and BEAUTIFUL❤
One of AOT theme "Beautiful Cruel World"
Props to floch.....dude didn't betray eren to the very end...
Not only eren, but he didn't betray Eldia as well. And his friends, he could've shot his friends.
@@TheNicNicNicNic the fuck are you on about, i just say not just eren that he didn't betray lol
Not eren,but eldia,even though i don't agree with his ideology,he's an amazing character

King floch.
Dying for his country to his death.
Commander Erwin would be proud of him.
Armin cried the hardest when Hange burned to death since he experienced it before
This scene in the anime is 2x times better than the Manga Version
Rip Hange they did your death in the A way sadder that in the Manga… rest in peace with the rest of the fallen soldiers keep watching Levi from Heaven 😭😞
Everything was better than manga , except that legendary Freedom panel
Aot anime, in general, is better than the it's manga
@@avisingh7423 not after the way they animated the freedom panel💀
@Pedro Ortega yeah if we remove that, but overall anime of aot overshadows the manga by some distance
Naah chill. Chap 131 was way better in manga form.
6:11 It's an anime original scene. Those prisoners are Eren and Zeke's grandparents. They were jailed because of Zeke's betrayal of Marley. In a cruel twist of fate or irony or whatever you want to call it. Eren murdered the last remaining members of his family.
I'll never understand how people can take such a masterpiece in with just one earbud in, takes away of the experience for sure. I can't even listen to my own music with just one ear bud in it drives me crazy
Eren is ironically the least “free” person in the show since he’s following the patterns of the future memories, compared to his comrades who are blind to everything but are making their own decisions
i guess that is the point probably why he is fighting for it soo much
Ymir wrote the main script and Eren is literally a puppet to it
Absolutely incorrect. Eren sees the future memories of what's about to happen cause that's really what he gonna do. The future memories hinted at what Eren truly wanted inside.
@@yeager1234 do you not under the purpose of arming question at the end of the episode. Eren also said it’s been determined that I will kill those people. He also tested the future several to see whether they would happen. He doesn’t have control over it. He’s a slave still
@@rogueshay853 Nah, he didnt try to change it, in fact he is the one lead this shit to happen in the first place through the past. He made his own script and followed it through. Even setting up stuff before he was born. He didn't try to change anything. Not once.
What a HELL of an episode. An hour of nothing but carnage and despair. This is the most anticipated and considered the best episode of AOT, according to the fans that is and ig we can vouch too. Aside from Hange's heart-shattering sacrifice and all, We now see Erens perversion for freedom at full display, which I think is somewhat overlooked. There's more to it than just expressing his immense guilt infront of the child(Ramzi), He poured out his bottled up emotions by admitting the fact that he did what he did because of an unfulfilled dream and disappointment.
Eren is, as Kenny would say, drunk on something, an idealistic freedom of a world beyond the walls that simply doesn't exist, Eren dreamed of an empty world without people, with rivers of lava, vast seas and deserts, a world to explore and discover, and instead there were people who had taken away his freedom. He internalized that idea of freedom based through the contents of Armins book, now that it doesn't exist, He initiated the rumbling primarily for the sake of that selfish desire. To him, It's far more important than saving the island, hence recontexualizing his speech that eradicating the world is merely a pretext. in short, he's just like a child throwing a tantrum because he couldn't grab what he wants despite the guilt and all. Eren is the personification of contradiction and irony, be it his actions, emotions, and the leitmotif encompassing his character. He's a god yet a devil, a victim and a perpetrator, Selfless for sacrificing his life for his loved ones yet Selfish for trampling on others lives for his desires, desires freedom yet a slave to his unfulfilled ideal freedom and nature, hes human and a monster.
Brilliantly said.
Very well said & explained. I caught too. The fact he said disappointed did confirm a part of his character that is truly, evil for lack of a better term
This☝🏼🤝🏼
Imagine if a race of outer space living humans descended upon earth right now and wanted to wipe us all out because of what our ancestors 6000 years ago did. There was hundreds of billions of humans outside of earth who DESPISED us. They cried tears of joy at the thought of killing us. They held a carnival about it.
Would you say we were children throwing TANTRUMS about fighting them back in order to survive? Would you say we should all lay down and die for them? If I had a means to fight back and wipe them all out in order to save earth, would I be “evil”? Some of the points I see about this show are utterly perplexing.
Utterly perplexing. So divorced from reality.
You fight to live and you fight to be free. That’s human nature. It’s not a tantrum.
The general at the end said “this is our, the ADULTS fault that caused this.” Actually think about WHY Eren is doing this.
True. You're the only one here who made an amazing character analysis of Eren.
I feel like I’m gonna explode waiting for the next episode 🙆🏾♂️😭
31:16 Previous intros to the series made reference to Zeke that indicated the Beast Titan turned into other animals with each Beast Titan user. So with each titan shifter it would turn into a different titan animal.
The Rumbling is one of the most horrifying things I've read in manga and now seen in anime. Not much compares to it outside of maybe the Eclipse in Berserk.
I haven't been this sad since Armin got scorched in Season 3. Rest in peace Hange.💚😞
Yeah so, the first scene with eren's dream was supposed to just be mikasa telling him "see you later" before he woke up. Thats how it was in the first chapter of the manga.
Wit messed up when they didnt do it like that in the first episode so mappa had to add that scene now
The legendary freedom panel was animated perfectly. From his view he's above the clouds of steam while it transitions to all the bloodshed below in order to make his once innocent dream come true "the freest ppl are the ones who can see those landmarks".
Btw those prisoners were erens grandparents
The song playing during Hange's exit scene was a song that played in season 1 during the female titan arc, it's called Bauklotze
"i wonder what erwin would say in this moment.'
*Exactly what Hange said.*
rip floch man one of the realest and very well written characters of the show
The animation, OST and everything is 10/10
The speech the commander or general at the end gave is amazing, he realized Eren is a physical representation of the hatred for eldia the world has built for decades finally being brought back to them, that’s why he’s big asl & why the consequences are world ending
If you missed the first part where eren was crying, that was actually the first episode of aot, remember he said "he felt like he was in a long dream" he was dreaming about everything that was already happening like where he activated the rumbling that's why he was crying. So in ep 1 he really dreamed about the rumbling and everything. They just showed it again in the new ep
Hange didn't agree, she agreed that she wasn't able to give Eren a different option, or hope like she said.
Also Zeke's plan involved passing down the Titans to protect Paradi, children would continue to eat their parents. Marley could still attack to take back the founder. Sneaking in again to try to steal it. It's left to chance if they even survive long enough.
I respect Steph alot. Some reactors do not understand what kind of person Eren and how the story is a tragedy. "Whoever wins, wins" and "it is what it is." I'm glad I'm able to watch your thought process and philosophy. I see it the same way, it's just tragic for everyone. even though eren lowkey wanted to destroy the world and the world kind of gave him the excuse by seeking to take away his freedom.
After watching Demon slayer, it quickly became my favourite anime, overtaking thing. But then I watched this and omg I’m conflicted because this is literally a work of art. The story of this anime is crazy. The writer literally created one of the best stories and pieces of art in tv/ anime history. I can not wait for the second part later this year. I think there’s a possibility that Eren wants them to stop him, if you remember at the start, he had a dream of the future, he was crying after seeing it. He then cried when in Marley after saving the kid, repeatedly apologising, I think he wants to be stopped but he also knows that this is how it plays out because he’s seen it happen in the future, he must be on this line, jumping between “I want to be saved” and “I need to bring ‘freedom’”
if eren tries no one would be able to stop him
wdyt if demon slayer have average animation?
@@ackerman9929 then it wouldn't be popular like now
In regards to why Eren opposed Zeke's plan, besides Eren (and others) being fundamentally opposed to the idea of mass sterilization of Eldians, the main reasons why Eren didn't accept Zeke's plan, both Zeke's fake one (the one the Eldian government was willing to accept) and real one, is that ensuring the safety of Elida in both plans (until technological advancement progressed enough to make Titan powers obsolete for the fake one ands/or until the last sterilized Eldians died of old age (i.e. Historia's children) for Zeke's real plan) would require the practice of maintaining The Founding Titan power and at least one of any of the other 8 Titan powers through the practice of feeding titan power holders to successors every 13 years (with Historia's royal-blooded children being required to at least always be waiting on standby to inherit a non-Founding Titan power), in order to maintain the power of The Rumbling as basically a fantasy-analogue nuclear deterrent threat. And Eren despised and considered that practice unconscionable, particularly since it literally depended on requiring a (relatively) small number people giving up their individual liberty/freedom (i.e. being forced to be hold a titan power and cut their lifespan to 13 years) to ensure the island of Eldia's safety.
And to be clear Armin and the main character Scouts also didn't like the essential requirements of either of Zeke's plans (in addition to not liking the idea of mass sterilization), but unlike Eren, if a diplomatic solution still hadn't been found before Eren's "term" was up, in order to ensure the island's safety, they would have grudgingly resigned themselves to Zeke's fake plan of using a small-scale rumbling (that would have just destroyed Marylean military targets) to establish its long-term threat as a nuclear deterrent analogue tool. Eren (and the Jaegerists) were the only ones who were willing to accept a total activation and usage of The Rumbling.
Idk how many people got this, but Eren is actually talking to Ramzi openly about his plan and crying because he saw him in a future memory and knew he would save him, ironically, killing him soon after. He’s telling him because Ramzi doesn’t speak the same language, hence he’s like “bro why are you crying.”
They should've released this in theatres for real
Man why didn’t they
That scene when Eren is walking throughout Marley. If you remember last episode when everyone went to Marley for the first time and everyone but Eren was with Lady Azumabito and Mikasa was like where is Eren, Eren was doing this. And when you get to the crying scene, thats when Mikasa shows up and Eren asks her what is he to her. Just clearing that up lol
My favorite thing about the freedom scene that makes it a very powerful scene is that if you look the clouds that he is soaring in aren’t even clouds but rather its the steam from the rumbling
The kid he saved is the one we saw in the last episode of part 2, that’s the kid who brought him to his parents house and they had that huge party/feast, and why he was crying when Mikasa found him
I’M SOOO PROUD! Splinter Wolf was playing during the entrance of The Alliances (Onyankopon trying to control the flying boat and them arriving at Eren exactly in Fort Salta)
GOOSEBUMPS!!! So good to hear Splinter Wolf 🫀✊🏻🔥
Eren's founding Titan is the battlefield for the final fight i can guarantee the next episode is full action packed.
At the first of the episode where Eren says that he had a dream he watched the whole future and after he woke up he couldn’t remember and we was crying
let's just go back to those ignorant peaceful days with mikasa and armin 😭
This story is great it’s really unique how it blurs the lines of who is good and who is bad. It also shows what an endless cycle of violence can do. While also having the philosophical questions of to save your people are willing to sacrifice the rest of the world. I personally liked Zeke’s plan bc it lead to no violence. But ultimately you will see what Eren’s endgame and plan was. Great reactions guys 👍🏽
Idk about “no violence” because eldians would still have to eat each other to pass the power & Im sure country’s would still espionage.
@@rahmelg it wouldn’t work out like that their race would come to end with Hostoria’s baby. He would be the last one until he dies. Granted if the titans carried out their life span he may inherit the abilities and change it but that plan offered the least amount of bloodshed. But again Eren has his own plan and end game which I won’t spoil.
I don't like Zeke's plan, if you euthanize yourselves and the world still hate and want to kill you then what? Fear and hate is irrational.
@@kitar0777 yes the world will still hate your race but they can’t hurt you bc the outer wall Maria was going to be the rumbling to whip out key military bases. After the Eldians are deceased the world’s military would probably be back up. It still causes blood shed but less. But obviously Isayama wrote the story the way it played out. Eren’s plan will obviously be revealed in the last episode for non manga readers. But Reiner and Armin are on the right path about Eren wanting to be stopped. As a reader I didn’t like how Eren went about it his whole grand plan. But again it’s a whole philosophical question of how to protect your race from the rest of world. Ultimately we get the conclusion we get, which I was fine with. I know many manga readers didn’t like the end. It’s just a unique story and idea that we all fall in love with.
@@sproutzer Fundamentally I don't like the idea of killing yourself off because someone hate you and more of that hate will manifest when you destroy military key places. The world will find a way to wreak havoc especially when you "hit the bee nest." It may take 20 years for the military bases to recover else were and they aerial bombard with vengeance. There's nothing guaranteed about Zeke's plan when it's the world vs that small island.
None of these plans would be needed if the world wasn't led by hate and attack paradis when they were trying to live peacefully.
Mappa says this is the pinnacle of their animation .. and well everything is just for a masterpiece ever created on earth .. ATTACK ON TITAN DUDE
Armin last line was "When we pull you out of that Titan, I want to ask you again, in what way are you free?" is reference to their dialogue at the round table. Since you guys clearly forgot, Armin did asked Eren that. Mikasa and Gabi were there too. Eren says he hated Mikasa and him beat the crap out of Armin happened at the same room.
Translator did an oopsie when they translated "again" with "another" lol.
You guys misunderstood the ending dialogues. Armin wasn't saying "in what way are you free once we drag you out"... Armin was saying "I'm going to ask you one more thing u r not gonna like once we drag you out, in what way are you free?"
The dragging out sentence was part of armin's previous dialogue. Basically armin is asking eren in general.. In what way is he free because we know eren is a slave to his own nature.
The toasted people scene reminds me on the molten fleshed, half dead people from Hiroshima picture drawings and what survivors explained how those poor souls looked like, wandering around with open arms like zombes.
"What was Eren to do?" .... I mean, NOT murder 2 billion people for a tiny little island with a population of under 1 million.
The music and the visuals on this one were amazing. Aot even beat FMA on MAL. The start of a new era!
That has happened multiple times now and sadly won't last more than 10-15 days . The fmab fandom is trash
@@rafatjamal4844 yea even I have seen aot top the list but it doesn't stay like that for more than 2-3 weeks
I think the freedom line at the end is armin trying to get at the fact that in doing the rumbling eren is still a slave. He's a slave to his hatred, ymirs will and the concept of freedom itself
Eren is the embodiment of an unyielding will for freedom. An unstoppable force. It’s a powerful statement, but a sad and cursed life for Eren. The creator of AOT really did create such a thought provoking masterpiece.
31:04 Zeke is the Beast Titan but remember, the Beast Titan isn’t always a monkey. Falco’s Titan looks like a bird & he was a created from Zeke’s spinal fluid so he’s like a Beast Jaw Titan. Based on this info I’m guessing he can fly… plus his name is literally Falco 💀
I`d say what Armin tryed to say is that Eren is just following the future he saw, he`s not free just following the path.
been waiting for this🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The characters really do feel Human with all their Different Ideals and Points of View on the Matters of the Wolrd and The War that's going on that forces them to act.
It's insane how This was the Authors First Manga and it was an Absolute Masterpiece that makes you wonder and think deeply about the things that's going on
Maaaaaan *Levi is the most one tortured, agonised, & have it rough in this whole series* .. & to think despite all that we never heard him say things like ( i want to die ) or any negative emotions like anyone would.
*Btw very important detail to remember* , he never wanted any of this , to join the corps , save humanity,or be a warrior , unlike other ppl like Erwin & Hanji or even Eren who have purposes & goals about the whole thing. *I still remember a sentence the voice actor of Levi ones said* , he said he never liked the nickname ( *humanity strongest soldier* ) , it's just a whole amount of burden & responsibility, it's like u owe ppl , it's like u don't have a choice, it's like u don't get to choose wt u want or do wt ur heart wants, it's like for forever u should be there for the benefits of other ppl , its like there's no one else , it's unfair to have a nickname like this .
Mel's! Around 7:45!
The attack titan = shingeki no kyojin =進撃の巨人
「進撃」means advancing/charging in the context of a battle rather than attacking specifically, so the nuance is lost in the translation. There isn't much that the translators could've done unfortunately. The "Charging Titan" doesn't sound nearly as good as the "Attack Titan", and it doesn't have the broader meaning that the Japanese word does unfortunately
「の」 means of, 「巨人」 means titan
But attack is usually 「攻撃」 not 「進撃」 in Japan.
「攻撃」, 「進撃」 and 「巨人」 are Chinese characters and have meanings on their own.
「進」 means advance forward, go up, improve, etc.
「攻」 means attack, learn
「撃」 means beating, attacking
「攻撃」 means attack.
In Japan the attack titan means kogeki no kyojin, means 「攻撃の巨人」
but the creator, Isayama, chose to name it shingeki no kyojin!
It is difficult to translate shingeki no kyojin to English.
The name of the Titan and the name of the show is:
The titan who attacks to advance forward.
That Is the more correct meaning.
More than a anime..The audio, the graphics, the speech...🔥
The only reason ppl support eren, because they r thinking only in context of this series. They just choose whatever side they like and decide their fate, but if we see this series as a philosophical masterpiece i garantee most ppl will be against eren. in real life we can't choose where we born, which side we will be....most eren fan in real life would end up like Ramzi. One more question does global warming is a thing in eren world? if global warming exists, paradise is doomed right. Water level rise, extreme high temperature etc.
I got emotional when they were in the paths. When begging for eren to talk to them. That shit had me all sorts of fucked up 🤣 and before that the only time I truly cried was when on my 1st time watching, seeing mikasa hugging eren an her voice actress cry’s out. That’s the only time I truly cried. That moment is beautiful! That actress did an amazing job!
I love how they brought back a lot of the original OST’s.
i couldn’t even process hanges death bc of how hype she was 😭
Those who justify Eren always use as an argument "he did for his friends", "he did it because he had no other option", both are bad arguments, fallacies, lies, he did not do it for his friends, and he had other better options (Fake Zeke Plan).
He actually did it for his sickly concept of freedom that he always imagined outside the walls. And as he did not obtain it, he felt so much hate and resentment for humanity, which uses the declaration of war as an excuse to fulfill his fantasy of Armin's books, he became a fascist and work with the worst scum as Floch, he betrayed the Legion and his friends to fulfill his selfish desire, killing millions of innocent civilians.
Stop defending the genocidal emo. Eren is a monster, it is established in the canon, a monster is a non-rational being.
I don't know if I'm the only one but when Eren said "I Will Keep Moving Forward" at 27:59 he reminded me of when Kaneki(Tokyo Ghoul) said something similar which is "I Will Keep Moving Forward, Just Like A Centipede." And after saying that he transformed into a Giant Centipede Looking Creature just like Eren's Titan Form which looks like a Centipede. Also, noticed how there was a Centipede in this episode.💯👌
Ken and even are my favorite mc’s they have a lot of similarities
*eren*
Notification squad 💯 Who else is hyped for the Final Season ✋✋
This special ends with a literal Attack on a Titan
Minutes 5:19-11:20 of the episode is the best sequence I've seen in maybe any show ever. The story behind it, ost, voice acting, camera angles, literal perfection of a scene. The low strings heavily reminded me of The Joker.
I've never felt so scared of Eren's final form, End Tail Titan. (In the original work, there was no name for this form, but it is said that Hajime Isayama, the author of the TV anime, named it in the visual release of the DVD/BD volume 4 of the final season.）Thank you,MAPPA.I'm looking forward to the fall！
Falco is pretty much a beast jaw titan. Explains why his titan takes the characteristics of a bird.
Ah they certainly did this scene better than the manga
The wall titans are literally the perfect weapons for Eren since they Just Keep Moving Forward no matter what!!
So the music is actually from the other seasons, hange’s scene is with a song from the first season called Bauklotze.
22:09 "Hange is freaking lit!"
Interesting choice of words.
I feel like once I saw this get depicted in the anime, it looks and feels more horrific seeing what people have to go through and having every mom, dad, daughter and son get stomped to death by these colossals. I still side with Eren but I still feel for the people who were innocently taken away due to the history of their own people. Just like the commander in the zeppelin said, the monster we created is coming back at us full circle and if we are to see a future beyond this I vow to not repeat the same mistakes of the past.
Eren is really destroying the world holy sh*t
It was destined to happened and one man could do such a horrible thing “eren” so it’s like the rumbling was made for him and him alone. Would have like to see how zeke plan would’ve change the world though, we all know Marley would continue to conquer and enslave or races of people
@@GladwinAbel Not just Eldians too add too your point.
He is more like liberating it from it's long dark past
When armin asks that question, the story is alluding to what Kenny said in season 3 that everyone is a slave to something. And eren is being a slave to fate. Cause as he said in the beginning of the episode, the rumbling will happen in the future. And Eren is all about freedom. So how is he free of fate if he's following it and doing its "will"? At this point it's a little trivial since I don't think Eren hasn't come to this realization already. He just wants physical freedom at any cost now. It's just an interesting question to pose to the audience
You misunderstood Armin’s question. He wanted to ask Erin in what was are you free in reference to the rumbling
6:17 I seen some comments mentioned that the couple in the prison are either eren's or zeke's grandparents.
Now when I revisit that scene Mikasa and Annie having that dialogue about boarding the airship to save humanity or not, I suddenly realise they are both the same, neither Annie nor Mikasa care about saving the world, they are just wouldn't hesitate to kill, to face danger and etc. if it is for their family their love one, whoever they truly care.
This episode confused me, I thought Eren only wanted his friends to live that's why he was doing all of that, but in this episode he literally tried to kill them with the beast titan, and he said the rumbling will not stop and that they are going to have to kill him to stop him, will Eren kill his friends if they try to stop him? why would he say he wants his friends to live and then he attacks them? At this point I don't even know what his motivation is
Chill , don't get confused. Everything will be answered by the end of this show. Also eren knows already what's gonna happen to him and the whole world and to his friends, HE SEES FUTURE. That's all I'm gonna say.
Yeah its confusing
@@arexarpit You're wrong. Eren can't see the future, the attack titan's power is to send MEMORYS to it's past shifters. The furtest future memory Eren got to see from his father‘s memorys (grisha) was the view of the rumbling we saw in this episode. The same view grisha saw (where he then begs zeke to stop eren).
@@remgaleu4148 yeah yeah my bad , I definitely put that in a very different way than what it is actually.
i dont wanna spoil but Ymir did that
This is where our hearts break 20:36-22:19-23:11 💔💔💔
Eren is a pos human being. No amount of trauma would make you do something like that.
He did the rumbling because he wanted to see the scene Armin talked about in the book. Though he was trying so hard to convince himself it was for sake of Paradi island.
Is that flock?
Flock: Bop bop bop🔫😂
How not to cry with that?, absolutely beautiful
a train can’t wrap around them because the titans are leaving in a circle they’re just showing you one scene but there are Colossal titans moving out towards the rest of the world. The wall surrounded Paradis so it would only make sense that they’re leaving the island in the same formation towards the world. There’s no escaping them.
'What is that?? He needs some milk!" Hahaha, great one, guys. Keep these coming.
4:33 ramzi cant understand what eren is saying, because they speak different languages. This is the Time eren can be trulky honest and here he tells the real reason why he started the rumbling, because he was dissapointed, that the world outside the wall doesn´t look like the world in armins book as a kid
The thing is, that all Beast Titans weren’t monkeys, like Zeke. They all had different animalistic characteristics and powers. Zeke’s second father, the orevious beast titan was a sheep. Similarly, Zeke was a monkey.
And Falco, he’s manifesting the characteristics of a bird.
No Armin wasn’t threatening Eren he was alluding to that Eren isn’t free as of this moment while doing the rumbling. He was gonna ask Eren “in what way are you free?” meaning he’s saying in some way Eren isn’t free he’s a slave. To what? That’s what we’re gonna find out but it’s probably like meaning to his own ambition and the weight of protecting everyone because he didn’t wanna commit genocide which they make very clear at the start of the episode. It hurts Eren and he wishes he didn’t have to do it but he doesn’t see another way and Eren is a slave to that because he’s doing something he feels like he HAS to do and has NO CHOICE which is the opposite of free. He’s trapped by the burden of wanting to protect his loved ones. They drive it home again by having Reiner say he thinks Eren WANTS them to stop him because he doesn’t wanna do this and wish he didn’t have to. Reiner said that, he said if it was up to him he’d wanna give the founder power to someone else and if he COULDNT he would wish someone would stop him. Then after that Eren brings them into that coordinate plane. After they talk with him he basically reinforces what Reiner says but does it in a way to make them think of him as an enemy because if they knew Reiner was right they might try to find another way because they feel bad that Eren wants them to kill him. So he did that to try to make sure they don’t second guess it and try to do anything else except kill him. Then after the talk Reiner even said that it looks like what he said about Eren was right. No I have not read the manga either.
Truly love you guy,love from india❤️❤️❤️
How many times has levi's have to go though this.😭 I can feel it As you watch anime over and over, you will feel so loved and attached to it that you will feel and hurt it. Levi's lost so many people both friends I don't even know if he could shed tears anymore. We will remember you hange we will remember you. RIP Hange 💐
Armin asking Eren "In what way are you free" is just to try make him realize thats he's been a prisoner of his own fate even if he didn't want to. Everytime Eren tried to undo his own fate, he backtracked and obeyed his own futur fate. So it is an irony and pointless for him to release the rumbling on the whole world for the sake of freedom when he never truly did anything to be free of his own fate.
No, Armin is saying that Eren is a slave of the future he saw.
Ymir guided eren to free her and end the world. notice how Ymir is staring at Ramzi before getting crushed. eren stated that he saw that this kid will eventually get killed by him.
all in all, great animation,
the director did say that this will be emotional.
RIP Hange😢 she goes out in a blazing glory.
12:00 I mean, he's right in that they are both doing terrible things, but you can't compare sacrificing people from an island to sacrificing most of the world lmao I know Steph is a hard Eren supporter, but man, let's be real, we are just "supporting" Eren because we have seen history from Paradis perspective, but objectively what Eren is doing is way more horrible, it's global genocide of innocent people that don't have anything to do with Paradis and even Eren is well aware of that, that was the point of showing him feeling so much regret in front of the kid that he saved and then ended up murdering, what Eren is doing is not right and shouldn't be supported at all, no matter what and he knows it.
From what I know about the AOT world, if Zeke had accomplished his plan then whats to stop Marley and other countries from killing every single one of the Eldians both inside and outside the wall. Don’t forget that they only leave the outside ones alive to inherit the Titan powers so they can be in control of world power
Remember that Armins original plan was to use the partial rumbling to scare Marley for 50 years while the come up with a plan that most likely won’t exist. With Zeke’s plan in 50 years they will all be old people who can’t defend themselves since it’s the next generation that makes military might strong so when Marley comes that time what are they going to do with an entire civilization of old and weak people.
Eren most likely saw that future hence why this is the only option
Someone had said that the freedom scene wasn’t eren in the sky but at the top of the titans watching everything and the clouds were titan steam.
