mitchhamilton Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 theres been an odd lead up to the ending from the manga readers where they were expecting so many things. one being that the anime would have its own original ending that would fix the manga, that didnt happen, and then they thought we'd absolutely hate the ending as much as they did. didnt really happen. as far as can see, the ending was overall well received. but about the episode, and i guess the series itself is i thought it was great! some minor things here maybe but when i look back on the ending episode i appreciate it more and honestly get so, not even teary eyed but just really wanna break down and cry cause eren was a great character, and the part where he breaks down for his best friend really shows just how sad this ending is. he doesnt want to die, he knows hes going to, no has to. hes the author of his own tragic story to make sure his friends can live peacefully. it may not be infinite but he succeeded and had to make him the ultimate evil form the world had to unite against. but at the end of it all, he doesnt want to die. its so sad.

Dreamysyu Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Tried to watch it once. The first episode didn't impress me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kosakyun Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 The ending fit the overall themes of AoT by the end, tbh. I really liked how it was handled, and while my friends who were manga readers mention stuff like changes or whatever, ultimately it felt like it made sense given who Eren was. It was satisfying! Spoiler I especially like the last part where Historia has an internal monologue about what Eren wanted for them vs. what the people want for themselves. I feel like it's very telling given the context of what happened to Eren at the peak of his titan powers and even Ymir's situation. Even with all of the powers of the world at his hands, if the people do not want the change he seeks, it will never manifest. Which ended up with another future conflict that led to Paradis being nuked. Change is made not by a single will, but everyone's combined yada yada I hated S4's release sched though LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mentioning Zeke reminds me of how funny the way he went out was at the end of the series LOL Mfer said "what's up mfer looking for me" and instantly exited Fiddle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
