This is the real Reiner, no split personality, no doubt, no regret, just a man that strives when he has a purpose or goal. I’ve always liked him since he was the most human character who had most of the hard choices made for him.
Nah, that misses the point the doubt and regret, the split persona’s all make up Reiner Only in accepting that and it’s atonement is when he’s finally able to do things like this We wouldn’t have that without these other sides of him, they’re all him, they just don’t define him.
He's def my favorite character, but they should've given him the John Marston ending, Y should Reiner live a happy life after the sins he has committed
The real Reiner _is_ his split personality. Thr real Reiner _is_ a broken man, a broken child. The real Reiner is a warrior, soldier, and none and all of the above.
@@Majima669 agree. he should have died in battle, not only because of his sins, but also because that's what he wanted himself. he was trying to off himself, after all
@@peptobismol6140well, Warhammers specialise in hardening even more than the armored titan. They can make whatever they want from it, but the variants aren't really using their ability aside from making a weapon for themselves, and then storming at the enemy. We saw with the original Warhammer and eren how much utility the power gives, yet those warhammers don't really use it. If they used it to the full extent, Reiner would be a goner
If the warhammer made giant structures like the Lara Tybur to attack Reiner way too much they would be exhausted pretty quickly but in this case since there are a lot of Warhammers ganging up on Reiner that would've been a better tactic for sure. But tbh none of the Ancient Nine Titans really did fight in the most ideal way so I don't really think it's just the Warhammer's problem@@neuu8708
My theory is that the armoured Titan’s durability is influenced by the user’s willpower. When Reiner was broken and confused, 7 of 9 Titans could break his armour with ease without weaponry. But when his mind was clear and he had lots of willpower, he could take on multiple warhammer Titans and survive the full force of the colossal Titan’s explosion.
That makes a lot of sense tbh. As for a Titan with such a name, the Armored Titan probably took the most punishment out of the others in the battles it took part in after Reiner and Bertoldt got exposed.
@@hylianlegendsyou're wrong, it was said in the show multiple times how important their will is when it comes to transforming. Do you not remember eren not being able to transform when he lost his will to fight? Then he finally transformed when he had that stake through him before he fought the female titan? He transformed originally from his anger at the world. So saying that reiners will has to do with whether he dies or not while taking the colossal titans nuke isn't even really up for debate. If he had no will he would've died. Strong will doesn't literally make his armor stronger but it makes him survive more hits by keeping him alive in his titan form where with no will his titan would just stop working like it's supposed to basically. But yes it doesn't literally make the armor stronger, but makes him able to regenerate more quickly & tank more hits before he dies. The will is the fuel for his titan form. By that logic more will means more fuel which easily could be the difference between living & dying when taking so many hits.
Also I'm Season 4 he tanks way more thunder spears than in season 3 . in season 3 in only took Like 12 thunder spears to take him down whilst in Season 4 it took like 50 Yeagerists with 2+ thunder spears each to overwhelm The Armoured Titan.
Reiner's spirit was in the fight with no guilt many times before this. He was IN THERE before, and fyi, the director confirmed this display was a meta addition just for fun, so its nothing canon to confirm this is how he actually fights or whatever. Still a great scene tho
Reiner and Eren are complete flips of eachother. Eren was a hero who fell. Reiner was a villain who rose. Erens convictions were unwavering while Reiner was always held back by his own self doubt. This later flipped, with Eren beginning to question himself and Reiner finally finding something he WANTS to fight for. Its like poetry, it rhymes
I think Reiner was someone who fell from grace, he had respect, friends and love from them. And sadly he knew that it couldn't last forever because as much as it killed him inside he had to make the choice that he never wanted to make, to betray them. As 4 years passed Reiner was in the deepest darkest pits of hell and in his worst moment when he held the gun to his mouth he made the decision to fight for his loved ones since he couldn't fight for himself thus becoming the hero he wanted to be as a child. I believe Reiner's story is one of redemption and how it's never too late to make amends and right the wrongs of the past. He fell but he rose to much higher levels.
That's just it: there were no true villains here. EVERYONE was a hero pitted against each other. It wasn't too far off from what Fire Emblem Heroes wishes it was.
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi no need to say this in every comment, everybody can interpret the story however they like. And this is what we see, that doesn't matter
All his life Reiner was fighting someone else’s fight, doing someone’s dirty work for them. Now, He’s fighting for something he truly believes. Fighting to protect himself and others. Finally showing why he deserves to have the Armored Titan
They failed my dude. Losing 80% of the population can't be considered a victory, and I'm the end they didn't deserve it. Eren's actions weren't but the result of all of these characters actions and unwillingness to find a peaceful way out of their situation. Like someone in the show put it, Eren is the embodent of all their sins that was summoned due to their greed and selfishness
Reiner was always my favorite character, and I know I can’t be alone. He just overcomes, all while protecting others better than he kills them. That’s why he fights so well here, because he’s finally centered and content with himself, protecting virtually everyone he loves and thousands of innocents too. This hits extra hard because I was always as interested in the warrior trio as I was the main characters years ago, and Reiner was #1 for me. When his arc began again in S4, that made the show for me and in combat here and by holding back the hallucigenia he’s the MVP.
Yeah all he did was cause the death of 500,000 strangers when he broke Wall Maria. And then was directly responsible for many of his friends deaths at Trost. All of Marley are garbage. The warriors too. Only Zeke isn’t so bad.
@alexandrostheodorou8387 Yeah when he was just a kid. He did what Eren did at Liberio, hence they’re the ‘same.’ Even though it was actually for a nobler reason. And he didn’t directly kill all those people; it was the Paradis elites who killed that many by forcing them to “fight” titans with no weapons. And somehow Zeke “isn’t so bad” when he tortured Miche to death in one of the worst ways in the entire show. Reiner barely sought to kill anyone directly before S4
@@saadqazi3833 You forget Annie making the suvey corps Yo Yo’s? And remember at Trost he was the leader. He was responsible for continuing the mission. Decided to kill people that he knew for many years slept and trained next too. Eren attacked the moment Willy Declared War and the World cheered in support to genocide Paradis. Reiner did cold blooded murder 2 times and arguably worse at Trost.
@@saadqazi3833 bahaha ‘he was just a kid’ what a stupid excuse. Did you forget why marley wanted to wipe out the eldians in the first place? It was to get their natural resources. Did you forget why eren blew up liberio? To stop them from doing so. ‘Their the same’. What a dumb take.
Yeah kinda disappointed he wasn’t more of a factor in beating Eren himself. Thematically he should’ve been the one in paths fighting Eren & not Armin. Two kids pushed down paths neither wanted
@proskeptical789 fighting the founding titan wielder in the place he kinda can manipulate? Bold move. Eren was literally jumping between their ages and locations while in there. Plus, Eren talked to Reiner in his own realm. That's why when it ends they are all sitting there baffled, cause eren explained to them what was happening, and how he really didn't have any control over it, but in stopping him they erase all the titans currently there
Proved Reiner always deserved inheriting the Armored Titan & his only weaknesses were mental. Glad he finally got a scene like this instead of just being Eren’s personal sparring dummy. Just wish this was Reiner ACTUALLY fighting Eren 1v1 but they still nailed it
Reiner never held back whenever he and Eren fought, that was some fanboy excuse that hurt Reiner more than it helped him lol but real talk, it was a toxic excuse that never should've started
I mean.. Eren's resolve was to kill Reiner when it's quite opposite for Reiner, the only time he took things seriously was when he fought Eren for the last time in S4..
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi I wouldn’t say Reiner held back & went easy rather he was just way too mentally sapped to put up any sort of fight besides their first encounter when Eren was still learning how to use the attack titan. Big difference, when he came clean about Marco you can see the shift in his use of the armored altogether
@@proskeptical789 exactly, Reiner was never mentally sapped whenever he fought Eren. he always tried his damndest to beat him. I could be a Reiner fanatic and still hate how these fanboys excuses for him, between how they disrespect Reiner and the story, and what they say doesn't make sense with it either.
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bithe hell? How did you not comprehend throughout the franchise he held back and he was mentally stricken to fight in his best effort? You do realize back in S2&3 he needed Eren alive and not dead? And if he lands a killing blow, the entire mission fails? Also around that time he was rusty from using the titan because of not using it for 5 years. Let’s not also forget that Eren had mikasa aiding him in the first fight to gain the upper hand and also the help from survey corps in 2nd fight. As for the season 4 fights, Reiner was still mentally stricken to fight. But if you compare his mental health here, his morale is exponentially better. Reiner also is the better hand to hand combatant between him and Eren since he had both training regimes from 2 domains and Isayama even rated his fist fighting skills to be a 9/10 in his guidebook. Reiner is also the fastest out of the titans between beast, female, war hammer and attack titan as he once ran so fast without armor on his calves to the point Eren got folded and couldn’t react. Reiner also has the better stamina, endurance, regeneration and combat techniques. His armor is even more durable than Eren’s hardening as Jean’s blades could break through hardening but Mikasa’s blades shatters upon impact across Reiner’s armor. Reason why Eren shatters his armor is because the plates on his face is quite thin
that sheer determination is nothing new. He had it even back in season 2. The director confirmed that this technically-new prowless was a meta addition for in an interview
The fact that everyone still keeps saying that the cart titan is weak 💀 she literally took down 1 warhammer and 3 jaw titans all alone because of her endurance.
" if you can't love me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best" that sums up Reiner perfectly, for years he's been getting shit for not fighting as well as eren or annie only to prove everyone wrong in the best way possible and wresting with the hallucigenia was the wildest part of it all.
the director confirmed he was only having fun with Reiner here, so its pretty meta that he popped off like this. Hes still a decent fighter, but he still struggled and got trampled all the same like the manga verison
@@krisdc4053 well that "crap" is the truth, but yeah, alot of these reiner fanboys who thought a meta change vindicated their coping about how Reiner was "holding back" this whole time wouldn't care. But then again, they did care in the most butthurt before that came out and I disagreed with their delusions with story proof, while they backed up their stance horribly, and even had the nerve to say I didn't read the story and had no right to talk shit or whatever. I should've spared it on this comment which was more realistic and specifically stuff to the canon stuff, and not the AOC the director added on his own without the author's say-so.

0:38 really takes me back to Reiner vs Eren in season 2. Insane how these tables have turned by having you wanting Reiner to fight and survive. I'm truly going to miss this anime.
there was still hope for Eren like that too, who did get that heroic redemption twist that Reiner teased, so yeah, its is a switch from the season 2 days in the sense that Reiner wasn't this plain bad guy
Its really cool how good Pieck is at using her titan even though at first glance you would think that her titan is really bad and weak. She uses it really in a smart way
Before this scene we all thought that the cart titan was probably the weakest titan in fighting but in the hnads of someone like pieke the cart titan is actually quite useful in fighting
I went from loving Reiner, to hating Reiner, to pitying him, to loving him and cheering him on. The opposite goes for Eren. This anime had me on a rollercoaste ride of emotion and existential questions about myself and life holy fuck thank you Isayama. So many anime’s rush towards the end, but you took your time to go deep with every single characters development!!
I love this, Reiner usually always loses due to his hate for himself but here he doesn't let that affect him, and it is shown he fights better than Annie here, I knew deep down that in reality Reiner was the strongest warrior. This is him fighting using combat skills and weapons not just hitting or running towards an enemy.
To be fair, Reiner has the heart of the Scout with the pride of a Warrior. He had a lot of potential if his depression didn't hold him back, he was already the strongest Warrior Marley ever had.. no wonder he was given the rank of Vice Commander. Not only is he a skilled Warrior, but also a leader.. he's the one who planned on taking Eren down in S4P2, cornered Eren and had nearly defeated him.. if not for Zeke interfering all of a sudden.
@@strelis6615 Reiner's depression never held him back in any of the fights hes been in, and don't pretend that in the fight you mentioned, Reiner needed help to fight Eren and almost lost his head even though he pinned Eren.
Reiner was never the strongest warrior, not by a long shot, and he never held himself back out of hate. Also, the director confirmed that he (not tha author) added this just for fun, and no real signficance. To say nothing of how Reiner still struggles against individual titans and still gets canonically overpowered.... but yeah this was an awesome scene but its a meta addition that doesn't prove Reiner was the strongest
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi you're wasting hours of time to say non-important Bullsht about a fictional character, you don't have anything going on in your little life have you 😂
Man, I used to hate him from the moment he confessed that he was the Armoured titan. But he was always an intriguing character for me and I didn't know why. After watching his backstory in S4 he became my favorite. He's so well written as if he is human. He is like one of us - flawed, but still human. Not a one sided character. I'm glad he found his reason to live and to keep moving forward. For me Reiner is the true hero of the anime, since he has an immense character growth. People do change. His story shows us that the toghtest battles are the ones we are fighting within ourselves. But we can always change for the better.
Agreed, Reiner's story is one of redemption and it shows that it's never too late to right the wrongs of the past and that you dont need to have a good start in life to be great. The man made the hallucigenia, a godlike creature his bitch twice.
Yep he and Eren are the best characters in this series. The cast and crew and the story declared Eren as the most human and the hero of the story, but Reiner is just as amazing a character.
I always forget that pieck was the only one here that had absolutely no odm gear, nor the knowlage of how to use it in the first place. Being up on eren's titan, nearly half a kilometer above certain death must've been TERRIFYING
In my opinion, all of reiner's scenes in the final battle show that if he never beat eren it was because he was mentally weak, because physically he's an almost unstoppable beast. In the first fight he was already having doubts and problems so he didn't give his all (besides, his mission was to capture eren, not kill him). In the second fight the same but worse, he fought with an even more unstable mind. plus, reiner like eren and annie could improve his hardening (you know, the crystalline hardening), and he never used that card against eren, another proof that he always held back for one reason or another.
Let alone his combat skills and experience are enough to stall Eren, if he had a much healthier mind or if he had talked to Bertholdt about this he would've been so powerful.
That holding back was always a pathetic cope tho. He always had his mind in tact when fighting Eren and still lost, and what would hardening his fists do against Eren when Eren can still meet him blow for blow. Most importantly, the director confirmed that Reiner's technically-new display here was a meta change, just to have fun in his own words. A meta change is something that feels major but no real significance whatsoever
@@jyotirani8187 that fighting potential, while not unseen before this, was a meta change the director and not isayama wanted to do just for fun. Still badass all the same, but nothign to suggest hes been holding back or whatever else these fanboys said to cope and ironically disrespect the guy they been sucking off
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi Even if this sequence was pure spectacle, the point is that Reiner could have always put up a much better fight against eren if it weren't for external factors such as his internal doubts, split personality issues, and his overall poor mental state. If already in the first fight they had it was seen that at least in brute force eren had no chance, and that same is seen in the other 2 fights as eren never tried to tank his punches with anything more than hardening.
thank the director, since he and not the author added this scene in for fun. yes the original bits still show Reiner struggling, and he still loses like in the original story, but still a great fight scene, even if it is a meta addition with no real significance.
Fun fact: Reiner might had been the worst Warrior, but Reiner was the worst among the best of the best (the Warrior unit is the elite of the Eldians across all of Marley's territory), so he's likely the most skilled Armored Titan to ever live. Also, Eren was just REALLY good at fighting, he easily outclasses everyone by the end, Reiner simply was no match for him.
As a child he was the worst but as he grew older be became better, during the 4 year timeskip he didn't lose any battles and in hand to hand combat is where Reiner is at a disadvantage where eren has the advantages, yeah In a brawl eren is much better but in a warzone Reiner is much better then eren, eren would get destroyed. Reiner is the tank, he's got the experience and knowledge to succeed and knows where to aim and his titan is built for it and during his time as a warrior he has achieved more then eren has ever gained as a scout( before eren went AWOL)
*no match* Literally Eren in season 2: "Mikasa please help, I got Reiner with Annie's move I definitely not remember for plot armor, help, Isayama needs to give me at least 4 titan shifting abilities to outclass him, but this isn't season 4, please help cuts his legs, I'm the bird protagonist!!!"
@@tavoa952And Reiner toying with Eren in their very first fight, he's just walking towards a knocked out Eren menacingly not giving a single care to Mikasa trying to slice him.
Reiner never got enough credit for his fighting skills. Even though Eren beat him multiple times he brought him to the brink every time he fought him. During the War for Paradis my man was palming Eren and mindless Falco down with one hand each by himself.
I could be a reiner fanboy and still say that ur giving him too much credit in how you described him. In that situation you mentiuoned, he literally said himself he couldn't handle them both, plus even before that, he was begging for help against Eren when he was single palming him. FYI, he can fight for sure, but thats nothing new. Oh and the director confirmed his technically-new prowless here was a meta addition with no real impact, just him having fun, his words not mine.
This is the time we really saw reiner fighting with a lot of technique. He was really outnumbered by the war hammers.but he fought excellently. We saw eren not being able to fight with only one war hammer.but reiner took on all of em
0:38 This Warhammer titan design is awesome. I'm so glad we got to see more of the Warhammer with this ending. It's also satisfying to finally see Reiner fighting all out against other titans.
the director added this in as a meta addition for fun. yes Reiner still struggles as the story made him to always do, and he does ultimately lose, but still a great scene.
It's not that he got better per se, but that he finally let go of his depression and doubts. He finally fought for something he believed in and didn't get held back by his own thoughts
he was always good at it, but just not better than Eren, and thats what kills his fanboys who ironically disrespect him with the hoildbing back bullshit. Also, the director confirmed that his "improvement" here was a meta addition. Meaning, no real significance, just for fun (his own words)
@@Dr.Leymen the holding back excuse is a pathetic cope and was never true. Reiner never held back, mentally or physically, in any of his fights. Not against Eren, Zeke, Annie, that fort, or whatever the fuck else. FYI, the director confirmed this was a meta additon with no real impact to the story. Just for fun, in his own words.
It pisses me of how everyone is conscious of the situation and how everyone tries to stop Eren with putting their lives in danger while Mikasa is sitting there crying about a man who never really gave a f*ck about her existence
it may had been a meta addition as the director confirmed, but a great scene regardless. Tho he still struggles in the new scenes and still loses like in the manga.
First time in his life he fights for a cause he 100% believes in after all. Man was probably more durable than usual since it depends on his emotional state (hence his unarmored look in Marley)
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi the time he defended against Eren he didn't have his heart in it. Because he knew after all he put Paradis through, Eren was justified in retaliating. This is in the true defense of humanity
Because its maybe the first time he didnt have to hold back. With eren, everytime he couldnt kill him, the only moment when he didnt hold back was when he punched eren very hard after porco death
Reiner was always considered one of the strongest fighters among the 104th, but unfortunately he always went up against Eren, Annie and Mikasa who are the 3 people who can beat him.
@@ChadBenjaminnahhh he is a better and stronger fighter. Difference is that Reiner has massive Depression & PTSD. But this time he is finally himself and has conquered his illness
Reiner wanted all the smoke. He just became weak throughout the series because its said that a shifter is only as strong as their will to live and will to fight and to have purpose. Reiner lost that throughout the series now he has it back, and he is standing on business
Reiner had to will to fight in the past, he never held back. This whole scene was confirmed to be a meta addition just for fun too, so nothing solid to bolster Reiner here. Its just a fight scene with no real impact.
Eren took Reiner out when facing the Warhammer Titan because he knew he wouldn't be able to take them both on. Reiner as much as people cannot accept always has Eren beaten. Eren had help every single time and even says "so I lost" when he was captured.
He wasn't winning, the Warhammer came in clutch. You saw how he couldn't free himself from Reiner's grasp while Porco attempts to eat him. Eren needed the Warhammer so he could fight the Warriors in Shiganshina before he activates the rumbling, because if you look closely Eren's Attack Titan can surely body Reiner's Armored Titan but never beat him, their fights always end up in stalemates because in the earlier seasons the Scouts put Reiner in a disadvantage like Mikasa interfering Reiner's attempt to break free from Eren's hold and the Scouts jumping on Reiner in their second fight. S4 Eren had help as well, sure he fought the Warhammer well but Lara didnt even looked fazed from Eren's beatdown. Lara, with no experience and formal military training managed to effortlessly beat Eren. The Scouts came in clutch before Lara could kill him, Mikasa distracted Lara to gas her out so Eren can capture her. Do mind Porco clearly beat Eren's ass but couldn't think strategically because he gave in to his anger. There is a reason why Eren took Reiner down in liberio, one is that this current Reiner may be depressed but knows him well by nature. And of course Reiner has the overall advantage if he wasnt taken down by Eren in Liberio, those cannons set up in around the stage can surely force Eren to defend himself while Reiner keeps the pace and pressure.
Eren beat Reiner on his own every time, and season 4 proven that when Eren is by himself and Reiner has help, Eren STILL comes out on top. Also, very fucking convenient that you ignored Eren's season 3 dialogue looking back on that fight you mentioned, which confirmed the exact opposite of what you claim, nevermind the following fight and Reiner's dialogue which also debunk your bullshit.
also fyi, Eren took out Reiner in Liberio like that to protect Falco and make sure he is safe from the carnage. At the end of that fight, Eren was still able to fight Reiner even after battling the warhammer and jaw titans.
I mean, you do know Reiner's only objective in season 3 was to capture Eren right? Reiner did say he can't bite Eren out on his own, because HE KNOWS the Scouts may also assist Eren just in case. Do mind Eren underestimated Reiner here and was overconfident until the tables turned and almost got his head blown off by a single punch that shattered the earth around them. Reiner was about to take Eren seriously until the Scouts took over and jumped him with thunderspears. Do mind Reiner only transformed in liberio to save Porco and not fight Eren, there's a BIG reason why Eren took advantage of Reiner and Falco just so he doesn't have to deal with Reiner in the following battle that's about to happen and also to protect Falco from the carnage as you said. But if Reiner didn't go with Falco or convinced Falco to stay with Gabi and the others, well Paradis might be dead by now because Reiner, Porco and Pieck are there to assist Lara which means Eren may have gotten eaten by now.. do mind Zeke had already turned his back on his fellow Warriors, he's just nitpicking his abilities against the Scouts to avoid losing more casualties.. if Zeke actually took the matters seriously and took advantage of the Scouts losing then Eren is no longer with them and the rumbling never happened.
You’re telling me that the WarHammer Titans can create ANY weapon based on imagination. But all of them just wanted ONE SWORD for this specific fight!?😂
Structural Hardening is quite taxing. That and they can't create complicated weapons like guns - and in this case a easy to make melee weapon is preferable to fighting bare handed.
But is no one gonna talk about how broken the cart titan is? She can regenerate *hundreds* of times consecutivley. In your average war there's just zero stopping that and she's probably clutched several stupid wars Marley's gotten itself into herself.
thank the director for this addition. He confirmed he (not the author) added it for fun, so while there is no story or character significance, still a great fight scene.
I love the detail that Pieck just "gently" nibbles her thumb to transform. This means that all those incredibly dramatic hand bitings (or just cutting the palms) weren't necessary

Okay, Pieck has to be the most precious character in this series. Her running down that trident is the cutest thing I've ever seen.

Yes , but also remember Ragako village .

Just like melina in your pfp.
This is the real Reiner, no split personality, no doubt, no regret, just a man that strives when he has a purpose or goal. I’ve always liked him since he was the most human character who had most of the hard choices made for him.
Nah, that misses the point the doubt and regret, the split persona’s all make up Reiner
Only in accepting that and it’s atonement is when he’s finally able to do things like this
We wouldn’t have that without these other sides of him, they’re all him, they just don’t define him.
He's def my favorite character, but they should've given him the John Marston ending, Y should Reiner live a happy life after the sins he has committed

His one and only best moment in the entire series 🔥
Actually he headbutted that war hammer and then he tomahawk the other!
that shit was hype, thats how he wouldve fought the whole show if he wasnt in so much mental pain
@@viletoxxie this was a meta change the director added for fun, and nothing canon. Reiner never held back out of mental pain, that's cope.
His waifu was in danger
My theory is that the armoured Titan’s durability is influenced by the user’s willpower. When Reiner was broken and confused, 7 of 9 Titans could break his armour with ease without weaponry. But when his mind was clear and he had lots of willpower, he could take on multiple warhammer Titans and survive the full force of the colossal Titan’s explosion.
That makes a lot of sense tbh. As for a Titan with such a name, the Armored Titan probably took the most punishment out of the others in the battles it took part in after Reiner and Bertoldt got exposed.
That's a cute theory. Just not true.
@@hylianlegendsyou're wrong, it was said in the show multiple times how important their will is when it comes to transforming. Do you not remember eren not being able to transform when he lost his will to fight? Then he finally transformed when he had that stake through him before he fought the female titan? He transformed originally from his anger at the world.
So saying that reiners will has to do with whether he dies or not while taking the colossal titans nuke isn't even really up for debate. If he had no will he would've died. Strong will doesn't literally make his armor stronger but it makes him survive more hits by keeping him alive in his titan form where with no will his titan would just stop working like it's supposed to basically. But yes it doesn't literally make the armor stronger, but makes him able to regenerate more quickly & tank more hits before he dies. The will is the fuel for his titan form. By that logic more will means more fuel which easily could be the difference between living & dying when taking so many hits.
Makes sense. Reiner went down with one punch from Eren in the beginning of season 4, which was arguably when he was feeling the worst
Also I'm Season 4 he tanks way more thunder spears than in season 3 . in season 3 in only took Like 12 thunder spears to take him down whilst in Season 4 it took like 50 Yeagerists with 2+ thunder spears each to overwhelm The Armoured Titan.
Reiner was IN THERE. NO MORE GUILT. I love that for him.
This is pretty much the only time where Reiner's spirit was in the fight.
Reiner's spirit was in the fight with no guilt many times before this. He was IN THERE before, and fyi, the director confirmed this display was a meta addition just for fun, so its nothing canon to confirm this is how he actually fights or whatever.
Still a great scene tho
@@TheAwesomeDarkNinja thats cope. Reiner's spirit was always present, even during season 2.
Reiner and Eren are complete flips of eachother.
Eren was a hero who fell.
Reiner was a villain who rose.
Erens convictions were unwavering while Reiner was always held back by his own self doubt. This later flipped, with Eren beginning to question himself and Reiner finally finding something he WANTS to fight for.
Its like poetry, it rhymes
I think Reiner was someone who fell from grace, he had respect, friends and love from them. And sadly he knew that it couldn't last forever because as much as it killed him inside he had to make the choice that he never wanted to make, to betray them. As 4 years passed Reiner was in the deepest darkest pits of hell and in his worst moment when he held the gun to his mouth he made the decision to fight for his loved ones since he couldn't fight for himself thus becoming the hero he wanted to be as a child. I believe Reiner's story is one of redemption and how it's never too late to make amends and right the wrongs of the past. He fell but he rose to much higher levels.
Reiner was never a villain, he always thought he was doing good, he was manipulated by a racist government
Kinda like people in real life
Well said
That's just it: there were no true villains here. EVERYONE was a hero pitted against each other. It wasn't too far off from what Fire Emblem Heroes wishes it was.
I wouldn't go so far as to say there were no bad guys. King fritz was evil. The guy who fed Faye to the dogs was evil.@@wholesome_masochist4113

They failed my dude. Losing 80% of the population can't be considered a victory, and I'm the end they didn't deserve it. Eren's actions weren't but the result of all of these characters actions and unwillingness to find a peaceful way out of their situation. Like someone in the show put it, Eren is the embodent of all their sins that was summoned due to their greed and selfishness
@@Baykkoit can't be considered a loss either they saved a lot of people enough to repopulate.
@@BaykkoSuccess doesn't define a hero.
@@CandleWispthen what?
Reiner was always my favorite character, and I know I can’t be alone. He just overcomes, all while protecting others better than he kills them. That’s why he fights so well here, because he’s finally centered and content with himself, protecting virtually everyone he loves and thousands of innocents too.
This hits extra hard because I was always as interested in the warrior trio as I was the main characters years ago, and Reiner was #1 for me. When his arc began again in S4, that made the show for me and in combat here and by holding back the hallucigenia he’s the MVP.
He is also my favorite, as well as the creators (Isayama)
Yeah all he did was cause the death of 500,000 strangers when he broke Wall Maria. And then was directly responsible for many of his friends deaths at Trost.
All of Marley are garbage. The warriors too. Only Zeke isn’t so bad.
@alexandrostheodorou8387 Yeah when he was just a kid. He did what Eren did at Liberio, hence they’re the ‘same.’ Even though it was actually for a nobler reason. And he didn’t directly kill all those people; it was the Paradis elites who killed that many by forcing them to “fight” titans with no weapons. And somehow Zeke “isn’t so bad” when he tortured Miche to death in one of the worst ways in the entire show. Reiner barely sought to kill anyone directly before S4
@@saadqazi3833 You forget Annie making the suvey corps Yo Yo’s? And remember at Trost he was the leader. He was responsible for continuing the mission. Decided to kill people that he knew for many years slept and trained next too.
Eren attacked the moment Willy Declared War and the World cheered in support to genocide Paradis. Reiner did cold blooded murder 2 times and arguably worse at Trost.
@@saadqazi3833 bahaha ‘he was just a kid’ what a stupid excuse. Did you forget why marley wanted to wipe out the eldians in the first place? It was to get their natural resources. Did you forget why eren blew up liberio? To stop them from doing so. ‘Their the same’. What a dumb take.
If only Reiner had this willpower back in s2 and s3 to fight Eren
reiner isn’t beating eren in willpower, reiner is is kind
eren has been fighting grown men since he was a kid
Yeah kinda disappointed he wasn’t more of a factor in beating Eren himself. Thematically he should’ve been the one in paths fighting Eren & not Armin. Two kids pushed down paths neither wanted
@@andres_realxoxoand Reiner was bringing down entire nations when he was a kid.
@proskeptical789 fighting the founding titan wielder in the place he kinda can manipulate? Bold move. Eren was literally jumping between their ages and locations while in there. Plus, Eren talked to Reiner in his own realm. That's why when it ends they are all sitting there baffled, cause eren explained to them what was happening, and how he really didn't have any control over it, but in stopping him they erase all the titans currently there
@@proskeptical789 how when Reiner's titan is 15m tall and eren's colossal form is 60m, or do you mean armored titan vs attack titan?

Only for her to immediately get one shot 🤣
Reiner was the most badass out of the whole fight scenes in this part
Proved Reiner always deserved inheriting the Armored Titan & his only weaknesses were mental. Glad he finally got a scene like this instead of just being Eren’s personal sparring dummy.
Just wish this was Reiner ACTUALLY fighting Eren 1v1 but they still nailed it
Reiner never held back whenever he and Eren fought, that was some fanboy excuse that hurt Reiner more than it helped him lol but real talk, it was a toxic excuse that never should've started
I mean.. Eren's resolve was to kill Reiner when it's quite opposite for Reiner, the only time he took things seriously was when he fought Eren for the last time in S4..
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi I wouldn’t say Reiner held back & went easy rather he was just way too mentally sapped to put up any sort of fight besides their first encounter when Eren was still learning how to use the attack titan. Big difference, when he came clean about Marco you can see the shift in his use of the armored altogether
@@proskeptical789 exactly, Reiner was never mentally sapped whenever he fought Eren. he always tried his damndest to beat him. I could be a Reiner fanatic and still hate how these fanboys excuses for him, between how they disrespect Reiner and the story, and what they say doesn't make sense with it either.
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bithe hell? How did you not comprehend throughout the franchise he held back and he was mentally stricken to fight in his best effort? You do realize back in S2&3 he needed Eren alive and not dead? And if he lands a killing blow, the entire mission fails? Also around that time he was rusty from using the titan because of not using it for 5 years. Let’s not also forget that Eren had mikasa aiding him in the first fight to gain the upper hand and also the help from survey corps in 2nd fight. As for the season 4 fights, Reiner was still mentally stricken to fight. But if you compare his mental health here, his morale is exponentially better. Reiner also is the better hand to hand combatant between him and Eren since he had both training regimes from 2 domains and Isayama even rated his fist fighting skills to be a 9/10 in his guidebook. Reiner is also the fastest out of the titans between beast, female, war hammer and attack titan as he once ran so fast without armor on his calves to the point Eren got folded and couldn’t react. Reiner also has the better stamina, endurance, regeneration and combat techniques. His armor is even more durable than Eren’s hardening as Jean’s blades could break through hardening but Mikasa’s blades shatters upon impact across Reiner’s armor. Reason why Eren shatters his armor is because the plates on his face is quite thin
Reiner was a monster in this final fight.
The amount of sheer determination was insane.
And Pieck's consecutive transformations were amazing.
that sheer determination is nothing new. He had it even back in season 2. The director confirmed that this technically-new prowless was a meta addition for in an interview
The fact that everyone still keeps saying that the cart titan is weak 💀 she literally took down 1 warhammer and 3 jaw titans all alone because of her endurance.
all of these past titans have the combined IQ of an amoeba.
1:22 Pieck looks so adorable in this scene lmao
" if you can't love me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best" that sums up Reiner perfectly, for years he's been getting shit for not fighting as well as eren or annie only to prove everyone wrong in the best way possible and wresting with the hallucigenia was the wildest part of it all.
the director confirmed he was only having fun with Reiner here, so its pretty meta that he popped off like this. Hes still a decent fighter, but he still struggled and got trampled all the same like the manga verison

there was still hope for Eren like that too, who did get that heroic redemption twist that Reiner teased, so yeah, its is a switch from the season 2 days in the sense that Reiner wasn't this plain bad guy
Its really cool how good Pieck is at using her titan even though at first glance you would think that her titan is really bad and weak.
She uses it really in a smart way

REINER 3:16 says I just whipped your ass!
I love this, Reiner usually always loses due to his hate for himself but here he doesn't let that affect him, and it is shown he fights better than Annie here, I knew deep down that in reality Reiner was the strongest warrior. This is him fighting using combat skills and weapons not just hitting or running towards an enemy.
To be fair, Reiner has the heart of the Scout with the pride of a Warrior. He had a lot of potential if his depression didn't hold him back, he was already the strongest Warrior Marley ever had.. no wonder he was given the rank of Vice Commander. Not only is he a skilled Warrior, but also a leader.. he's the one who planned on taking Eren down in S4P2, cornered Eren and had nearly defeated him.. if not for Zeke interfering all of a sudden.
director confirmed this was all meta btw, hes not the strongest warrior whatsoever
@@strelis6615 Reiner's depression never held him back in any of the fights hes been in, and don't pretend that in the fight you mentioned, Reiner needed help to fight Eren and almost lost his head even though he pinned Eren.
Reiner was never the strongest warrior, not by a long shot, and he never held himself back out of hate. Also, the director confirmed that he (not tha author) added this just for fun, and no real signficance. To say nothing of how Reiner still struggles against individual titans and still gets canonically overpowered....
but yeah this was an awesome scene but its a meta addition that doesn't prove Reiner was the strongest
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi you're wasting hours of time to say non-important Bullsht about a fictional character, you don't have anything going on in your little life have you 😂
Man, I used to hate him from the moment he confessed that he was the Armoured titan. But he was always an intriguing character for me and I didn't know why. After watching his backstory in S4 he became my favorite. He's so well written as if he is human. He is like one of us - flawed, but still human. Not a one sided character. I'm glad he found his reason to live and to keep moving forward. For me Reiner is the true hero of the anime, since he has an immense character growth. People do change. His story shows us that the toghtest battles are the ones we are fighting within ourselves. But we can always change for the better.
Agreed, Reiner's story is one of redemption and it shows that it's never too late to right the wrongs of the past and that you dont need to have a good start in life to be great. The man made the hallucigenia, a godlike creature his bitch twice.

I always forget that pieck was the only one here that had absolutely no odm gear, nor the knowlage of how to use it in the first place. Being up on eren's titan, nearly half a kilometer above certain death must've been TERRIFYING
I love it. When it was all said and done. Reiner proved himself. The way it was supposed to be.
director confirmed this was a meta change, with no real impact on the story. He was just having fun, in his own words.
In my opinion, all of reiner's scenes in the final battle show that if he never beat eren it was because he was mentally weak, because physically he's an almost unstoppable beast.
In the first fight he was already having doubts and problems so he didn't give his all (besides, his mission was to capture eren, not kill him).
In the second fight the same but worse, he fought with an even more unstable mind.
plus, reiner like eren and annie could improve his hardening (you know, the crystalline hardening), and he never used that card against eren, another proof that he always held back for one reason or another.
Let alone his combat skills and experience are enough to stall Eren, if he had a much healthier mind or if he had talked to Bertholdt about this he would've been so powerful.
Or maybe, just hear me out, all of the plot armor he had in previous arcs went into his fighting potential just for the last episode?
That holding back was always a pathetic cope tho. He always had his mind in tact when fighting Eren and still lost, and what would hardening his fists do against Eren when Eren can still meet him blow for blow.
Most importantly, the director confirmed that Reiner's technically-new display here was a meta change, just to have fun in his own words. A meta change is something that feels major but no real significance whatsoever
@@jyotirani8187 that fighting potential, while not unseen before this, was a meta change the director and not isayama wanted to do just for fun. Still badass all the same, but nothign to suggest hes been holding back or whatever else these fanboys said to cope and ironically disrespect the guy they been sucking off
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi Even if this sequence was pure spectacle, the point is that Reiner could have always put up a much better fight against eren if it weren't for external factors such as his internal doubts, split personality issues, and his overall poor mental state.
If already in the first fight they had it was seen that at least in brute force eren had no chance, and that same is seen in the other 2 fights as eren never tried to tank his punches with anything more than hardening.
Reiner deserved to have a scene like this. In the manga, he did manage to kill one Warhammer, but they pretty much had their way with him after that.

Finally all those years of getting his ass kicked by Annie and Eren paid off. Man was an absolute unit in the entire final battle.
He was indeed, but the director confirmed this was a meta change he made just to have fun, in his own words.
If you all want the name of the song while Reiner is fighting the war hammer titans, it’s called “TheWeightOfLives” by Hiroyuki Sawano.
Fun fact: Reiner might had been the worst Warrior, but Reiner was the worst among the best of the best (the Warrior unit is the elite of the Eldians across all of Marley's territory), so he's likely the most skilled Armored Titan to ever live.
Also, Eren was just REALLY good at fighting, he easily outclasses everyone by the end, Reiner simply was no match for him.
As a child he was the worst but as he grew older be became better, during the 4 year timeskip he didn't lose any battles and in hand to hand combat is where Reiner is at a disadvantage where eren has the advantages, yeah In a brawl eren is much better but in a warzone Reiner is much better then eren, eren would get destroyed. Reiner is the tank, he's got the experience and knowledge to succeed and knows where to aim and his titan is built for it and during his time as a warrior he has achieved more then eren has ever gained as a scout( before eren went AWOL)
Also remember that reiner is consumed by guilt and depression when he fighting eren, this fight is the only time he goes with all his strength
*no match*
Literally Eren in season 2:
"Mikasa please help, I got Reiner with Annie's move I definitely not remember for plot armor, help, Isayama needs to give me at least 4 titan shifting abilities to outclass him, but this isn't season 4, please help cuts his legs, I'm the bird protagonist!!!"

Reiner never got enough credit for his fighting skills. Even though Eren beat him multiple times he brought him to the brink every time he fought him. During the War for Paradis my man was palming Eren and mindless Falco down with one hand each by himself.
مخوزق مخوزق مع ارتفاع كبير
I could be a reiner fanboy and still say that ur giving him too much credit in how you described him. In that situation you mentiuoned, he literally said himself he couldn't handle them both, plus even before that, he was begging for help against Eren when he was single palming him.
FYI, he can fight for sure, but thats nothing new. Oh and the director confirmed his technically-new prowless here was a meta addition with no real impact, just him having fun, his words not mine.
I love how Reiner was wrestle with the warhammer titan’s
Mappa: How many Jaw titans do you want us to draw? - Isayama: YES.
This is the time we really saw reiner fighting with a lot of technique. He was really outnumbered by the war hammers.but he fought excellently. We saw eren not being able to fight with only one war hammer.but reiner took on all of em

0:38 This Warhammer titan design is awesome. I'm so glad we got to see more of the Warhammer with this ending.
It's also satisfying to finally see Reiner fighting all out against other titans.
the director added this in as a meta addition for fun. yes Reiner still struggles as the story made him to always do, and he does ultimately lose, but still a great scene.
Its good seeing Reiner getting better at hand to hand combat in this season
It's not that he got better per se, but that he finally let go of his depression and doubts.
He finally fought for something he believed in and didn't get held back by his own thoughts
he was always good at it, but just not better than Eren, and thats what kills his fanboys who ironically disrespect him with the hoildbing back bullshit. Also, the director confirmed that his "improvement" here was a meta addition. Meaning, no real significance, just for fun (his own words)
@@Dr.Leymen the holding back excuse is a pathetic cope and was never true. Reiner never held back, mentally or physically, in any of his fights. Not against Eren, Zeke, Annie, that fort, or whatever the fuck else.

that’s not the point it’s him finally being mentally stable. pay attention next time
Pieck really did a Mahoraga moment right there coming back after every blow
It pisses me of how everyone is conscious of the situation and how everyone tries to stop Eren with putting their lives in danger while Mikasa is sitting there crying about a man who never really gave a f*ck about her existence
Reiner before: oh no...eren armor scares me
Reiner now: i ain't the armored titan, i am the C O M E G E T T H I S H A N D S T I T A N
Reiner should have asked those warhammers and the hallucigenia If they wanted ketchup with that ass whippen.
it may had been a meta addition as the director confirmed, but a great scene regardless. Tho he still struggles in the new scenes and still loses like in the manga.
Pretty fitting that Bauklötze played when Reiner thew Jean. That song played when the Armored Titan first appeared in the beginning of the Anime.
Reiner really is an absolute unit when he stops tweaking and locks tf in.
First time in his life he fights for a cause he 100% believes in after all. Man was probably more durable than usual since it depends on his emotional state (hence his unarmored look in Marley)
That dropkick was epic!
Reiner’s resolve and determination is fucking crazy

Reiner finally got to fight as he wanted to: the Armored Titan defending instead of attacking
hes done that before
@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi the time he defended against Eren he didn't have his heart in it. Because he knew after all he put Paradis through, Eren was justified in retaliating. This is in the true defense of humanity

Yeah I was shocked too 😅😅
Reiner is strong when he's not fighting main characters
Because its maybe the first time he didnt have to hold back. With eren, everytime he couldnt kill him, the only moment when he didnt hold back was when he punched eren very hard after porco death

@@CHRISCAMPO-wq8bi yeah but his split personality made his will kind of blurry. While his will in the past wasn't weak it was just confused
0:45 warhammer titan was the imposter
Lol
Eren took Reiner out when facing the Warhammer Titan because he knew he wouldn't be able to take them both on. Reiner as much as people cannot accept always has Eren beaten. Eren had help every single time and even says "so I lost" when he was captured.
It's the other way around lol, Reiner always had his ass saved by others against Eren. Eren was literally 2v1ing Reiner and Galliard and was winning
He wasn't winning, the Warhammer came in clutch. You saw how he couldn't free himself from Reiner's grasp while Porco attempts to eat him.
Eren needed the Warhammer so he could fight the Warriors in Shiganshina before he activates the rumbling, because if you look closely Eren's Attack Titan can surely body Reiner's Armored Titan but never beat him, their fights always end up in stalemates because in the earlier seasons the Scouts put Reiner in a disadvantage like Mikasa interfering Reiner's attempt to break free from Eren's hold and the Scouts jumping on Reiner in their second fight. S4 Eren had help as well, sure he fought the Warhammer well but Lara didnt even looked fazed from Eren's beatdown.
Lara, with no experience and formal military training managed to effortlessly beat Eren. The Scouts came in clutch before Lara could kill him, Mikasa distracted Lara to gas her out so Eren can capture her. Do mind Porco clearly beat Eren's ass but couldn't think strategically because he gave in to his anger.
There is a reason why Eren took Reiner down in liberio, one is that this current Reiner may be depressed but knows him well by nature. And of course Reiner has the overall advantage if he wasnt taken down by Eren in Liberio, those cannons set up in around the stage can surely force Eren to defend himself while Reiner keeps the pace and pressure.
Eren beat Reiner on his own every time, and season 4 proven that when Eren is by himself and Reiner has help, Eren STILL comes out on top. Also, very fucking convenient that you ignored Eren's season 3 dialogue looking back on that fight you mentioned, which confirmed the exact opposite of what you claim, nevermind the following fight and Reiner's dialogue which also debunk your bullshit.
also fyi, Eren took out Reiner in Liberio like that to protect Falco and make sure he is safe from the carnage. At the end of that fight, Eren was still able to fight Reiner even after battling the warhammer and jaw titans.
I mean, you do know Reiner's only objective in season 3 was to capture Eren right? Reiner did say he can't bite Eren out on his own, because HE KNOWS the Scouts may also assist Eren just in case. Do mind Eren underestimated Reiner here and was overconfident until the tables turned and almost got his head blown off by a single punch that shattered the earth around them. Reiner was about to take Eren seriously until the Scouts took over and jumped him with thunderspears. Do mind Reiner only transformed in liberio to save Porco and not fight Eren, there's a BIG reason why Eren took advantage of Reiner and Falco just so he doesn't have to deal with Reiner in the following battle that's about to happen and also to protect Falco from the carnage as you said. But if Reiner didn't go with Falco or convinced Falco to stay with Gabi and the others, well Paradis might be dead by now because Reiner, Porco and Pieck are there to assist Lara which means Eren may have gotten eaten by now.. do mind Zeke had already turned his back on his fellow Warriors, he's just nitpicking his abilities against the Scouts to avoid losing more casualties.. if Zeke actually took the matters seriously and took advantage of the Scouts losing then Eren is no longer with them and the rumbling never happened.
0:53 is it just me or does this one shot look especially crispy? lmao
It looks like the Warhammer is looking elsewhere...
Its actually 2d for a short while, while the rest was cgi, which is pretty cool
I like how reiner is the main character in the final battle
idk where you got that. he isn't whatsoever
When the cards were down for, Reiner and his team, he pulled through and clutched up! True MVP 0:32
Looks like Reiner got his mojo back
You’re telling me that the WarHammer Titans can create ANY weapon based on imagination. But all of them just wanted ONE SWORD for this specific fight!?😂
Structural Hardening is quite taxing. That and they can't create complicated weapons like guns - and in this case a easy to make melee weapon is preferable to fighting bare handed.
This scene kicked so much ass in so many ways!
Reiner : you cant beat me ! Im the plot armor titan !
But is no one gonna talk about how broken the cart titan is? She can regenerate *hundreds* of times consecutivley. In your average war there's just zero stopping that and she's probably clutched several stupid wars Marley's gotten itself into herself.
Pieck wishing she could use the ODMG like everyone else as she is trying not to fall as she runs along the warhammers trident hilt🤣😅
A pitchfork. A trident would have 3 prongs.
Reiner and Pieck actually an underrated partner, i love their Teamwork. With Jean too
That drop kick was sick
That drop kick was personal
Reiner wanted all the *SMOKE*
Peak Reiner. When he has no doubts or guilt he was a beast. I love his character arc
Reiner se agarró a piñas con todo el mundo en este cap. Un genio
pieck was so cute running down hahaha
I'm in tears because I'll never get to see anything better.
thank the director for this addition. He confirmed he (not the author) added it for fun, so while there is no story or character significance, still a great fight scene.
1:02 That's a Maven level dropkick right there god damn lol
cart titan scene was funny as hell jumping all over the place like a naruto frog
I love the detail that Pieck just "gently" nibbles her thumb to transform. This means that all those incredibly dramatic hand bitings (or just cutting the palms) weren't necessary
Reiner was left and right 💀
Berthold after meeting Reiner again: "Yum"
Berthold after meeting Anne again:
"Stay away from mah girl"
This is the best performance of Reiner. OMG maan! He was a normal character to me until this episode 0:40
He's one of the 9, I dont think he's considered normal at all.
1:36😂 Jean
Reiner is cooking
2:26 song? pls
TheWeightOfLives
Reiner was throwing hands😂
Pieck and Reiner showing who the real heroes were, not a nation, but it’s people
Bro Pieck is funny asf 😂
