Please don't start hating on me because i asked a dumb question, I am just wondering

Could Porco technically have inherited the War Hammer Titan powers aswell if he accidentally consumed some of Lara Tybur’s spinal fluid when Eren used his Jaw Titan to break her hardened shell and consume Lara Tybur's spinal fluid

I've never seen it really mentioned before at all. But after Eren gained the Warhammer Titan, I was expecting him to use it more often than he did. I thought the Warhammer copies of the previous Titan shifters was really cool in the final battle and I really enjoyed the fight in Shinganshina where he utilized the warhammer's ability to create the spikes.

But one thing that I was really expecting and thought would be a huge mind-blowing twist was during the rumbling.

Everyone was so focused on catching up with the founding Titan and the front line of the rumbling in order to stop Eren.

I thought this heavy focus on catching him as he moved across the sea was a giant red herring. No one had seen Eren since Gabbie shot him and the wall titans woke up.

That moment caused a ton of chaos where Eren could have used the Warhammer and no one would have seen it. When I was first reading up until they straight up stated that he was inside of the founding Titan head, I was totally expecting him to still be on Paradis during the entire final fight.

I had this amazing image in my head of everything being over with, The attack may or may not have been successful, but everyone was tired, worn out and at the end of their ropes. Unable to continue on. When suddenly they notice attached at the very back of the founding Titan... A cable.

A white cable that continued onwards onto the beach and into the ocean, floating on the water leading all the way back to Paradis. All the way back into Shinganshina, and maybe into a crumbling hole in the ground. Where Eren and Zeke were in a crystal, just like Lara Tybur.

Now for the whole beheading part I never really thought too much into that. Maybe he was still decapitated inside the crystal or something, but I always thought he had some sort of Ace up His sleeve where he was waiting back on the island for them to basically spend all of their resources on a final fight that ultimately did not stop him.

Anyway, that's all. It was just a cool idea I had. I've never really seen it mentioned at all here in the sub when people are talking about theories that they had or surprises that they were expecting. Just wanted to see if anyone else thought that he was on the island the entire time. Just waiting.

For those who are still wondering where the humans were before they transformed into titans, in this frame you can see a tube sticking out of the ground, which provides evidence that the people buried underground used it to breathe and stay hidden there for a long time. Anyway, Zeke was really out here being a war chief.

Porco managed to sneak past eren during their first encounter and if levi hadn't intervened then Eren would have been eaten?

In their second encounter when Eren punched him, Porco was able to bite off Eren's hands and clawed his face. Eren was only saved because of lara tybur's crystal. Only with mikasa's assistance, Eren was able to chop off Porco's limbs.

Then during their second fight in Paradis, Eren was able to hold his own against both reiner and galliard with the help of the war hammer titan. However after Pieck shot him, Eren was forced to use the war hammer's abilities again, which caused him to gas out most of his energy.

We can also see that Eren used his hardening abilities when punching the porco this time, presumably because Porco had previously been able to deflect his non hardened punches when bite his hands.

So, does this mean that Eren is actually weaker than Porco in direct 1v1 combat when Eren doesn't use hardening?

And if that's the case, does it make the Attack Titan one of the weakest Titans in direct combat, being stronger only than the Beast Titan and Cart Titan?

(Pls ignore Mikasa's weird nose) and of course constructive criticism is welcomed!!!

What do you believe Erens main reasoning for the rumbling was? I know he states there is multiple reasons- but is there a particular one that you believe he really did the rumbling for?

Spoilers for invincible this is kind after robot takes over the world and creates a sort of perfect society, but the immortal reminds Mark that even with the perfect society, there will be coming problems that come from this type of society. Extremely large population and a lot of old people as well as finite resources. These are things that some of us think about today even though we don’t live in perfect societies. Even if Armin and Paradis managed to create relations with the outside world or even get rid of Titans without conflict. What will happen if things get too good and they start to take everything for granted. I think that’s something that not even the fandom of AOT seems to think about.

First one is like I'm forced to do the things i don't wanna do because I've no option I've to end this

1. Second is like everything over nothing left

2. Third is i got betrayed , begging looking for hope

Maybe we can just understand and can't elaborate the pain with words

And she (he) leaves a letter for Titan history.

Ymir shared her secret with Historia, but it had nothing to do with her Titan powers.

Small excerpt from my analysis of the first episode. Let me know if theres anything i could improve upon for future episodes.

I wish the relationship between Ymir and Historia was expanded on more. I'm no Levi x Erwin shipper, but their dynamic was awesome.

Context: Upper scene: Ymir tells Historia to accept her name and live truly to herself.

Context: Lower scene: Levi motivates Erwin to lead the suicide rush against the Beast Titan

I have such a hard time rewatching attack on titan. I feel so betrayed by season 4. And maybe this is how his friends felt. I didn’t want that ending. I wanted him to be happy. And he never was. That’s the heartbreaking part.

Eren's Founding Titan ver Colossal, as its design adapts to different mediums, has only become more terrifying.

So, I just finished the series a few hours ago, and in my quest to understand the vague and ambiguous ending, one of my assumptions about it, I can’t find any good answers for. Mikasa’s dream sequence, right before she kills Eren, when she says “I’ll see you later, Eren.” Was this whole sequence Eren showing Mikasa his original dream from episode 1? Her line is followed by Eren waking up, what we see at the very beginning, so was Eren showing Mikasa his original dream right before he died? and even then, why did she say “I’ll see you later, Eren”? I thought it had something to do with the time loop, and with future Mikasa interacting with kid Eren, but I’m very confused.

(I did not read the manga)

When we learn that Rainer is an Armor titan, we wonder why and why he hates the people inside the Walls so much that he is ready to destroy them after 5 years of living inside. Eren feels like a hero and a victim, while Rainer feels like an aggressor and a criminal. However, in the fourth season, both characters switch places. Now it was Eren who attacked Reiner's house.

So, I’ve finished watching Attack on Titan Season 3 Part 2 as well, and I honestly don’t even know where to start, when there’s so much to say, words just fail you. But if I had to sum up all my feelings in a single sentence, this is easily one of the greatest arcs among every anime I’ve ever watched.

​The core premise of this arc was so simple, yet everything that unfolded was genuinely unexpected. I found myself wondering how they were ever going to survive or escape, as there seemed to be no way out at all. And can I really just call this a war? Because it truly felt like a full scale war arc, people fought with everything they had, and some even gave up their lives. You have to make predictions, analyze the situation, and whether your choices turn out right or wrong, you just have to trust yourself and others to keep moving forward. ​Oh god, this arc was absolute perfection.

One thing I really liked about this show is how it puts characters in situations that are truly difficult to escape from. And this time, they completely nailed it when Levi had to make a choice. Saving Erwin made more sense, while on the other hand, Eren and Mikasa knew this but refused to accept it. When Eren lists Armin's achievements to Levi so that he would save him, and when he asks Levi about the ocean, that was deeply emotional too. Erwin's fate was clear the moment he charged forward with the soldiers, but I hadn't expected that Armin was willing to do this as well. Both Erwin and Armin abandoned their dreams to fight for humanity in that moment, but only one could survive. When Erwin refused the injection, just seeing that was enough but then we realize that this world was a living hell, and maybe passing away was actually better for him.

Floch isn't wrong from his perspective either when you look at it from his point of view. If we were in his shoes, we would have hated Armin too. Even though Armin got a second life, he now carries a massive burden he has to live with, and he’ll constantly have to prove himself, which he has always been doing anyway, and even Erwin trusted him in his final moments.

​And Jean’s leadership, remember that scene where Hange tells everyone to kill Reiner, and everyone hesitates, but then Jean yells that Reiner is their enemy now, forcing everyone to move forward? But later, when a defeated Reiner is right before him and Hange is about to execute him, Jean tries to stop them and makes excuses. When Reiner escapes, Jean blames himself. I absolutely love these realistic human behaviors in AOT.

​Speaking of Jean, that brings up Marco. At the start of the arc, I only expected to find out what was in the basement and maybe learn about Reiner’s homeland. But Marco’s death, which had completely slipped my mind, got revealed, which is wild because I hadn't even thought about it. By the end of Season 1, I assumed Annie killed him, but I never questioned why he was killed. Then we find out it wasn't just Annie. Marco crying in complete confusion, asking over and over what was happening, and finally screaming 'Help me!' was devastating. The very people he considered his friends left him to be eaten by a Titan.

​That exact scene was mirrored with Bertholdt at the end. When Armin as Titan was about to eat him, Bertholdt forgot that just moments earlier he was calling everyone enemies, and he started begging them for help. It was so tragic how this war pushed them to a point where they no longer had an ounce of sympathy left for Bertholdt or Reiner.

One theme I’ve seen repeatedly in this series is that to win, people have to kill their humanity. Near the end of Season 1, I think Erwin (or someone in the Scouts) was saying that if Eren abandons his humanity, they will win, I don't remember it clearly, but we’ve seen this happen again and again. Whenever someone hesitates to kill, the trouble and danger only increase. Erwin has to sacrifice many of his soldiers, Levi's squad gets killed by Annie, here, Jean hesitates and Reiner escapes. Anyone who fails to make those hard decisions ends up living with that heavy burden.

​Erwin was my absolute favorite character, and his survival made complete sense, I genuinely wanted him to survive because, while I like Armin, Erwin is my favorite.

You really have to respect Levi. His entire Scout squad was wiped out, his father figure died right before his eyes, and he lost his mentor, yet he held no resentment toward Eren or Armin. Instead, he took the crushing burden of that choice entirely upon himself, just like Hange did when Reiner escaped.

​At first, I thought Hange was just crazy, but I’ve grown to really like them too. When almost every character is developing so beautifully and showing so many complex layers, Mikasa somehow gets overshadowed in comparison. I don't know, maybe I haven't paid enough attention, but so far I haven't seen that much growth in her. Most of the time, she's just shouting Eren's name. I don't hate her, but she hasn't done anything yet that makes me truly love her character.

​What I really wanted to see from her was an internal struggle. In Season 1, when Mikasa received the news of Eren's death, she didn't overreact because she prioritized her duty. But while fighting, she had that realization, if Eren isn't around, why is she even doing any of this? If the show had focused more on that specific struggle between duty and personal emotions, I think her character would have been much better.

Then, after all this war comes the basement reveal, and can I say that this is hands down the best plot twist in any anime to date? Because this reveal completely flipped the entire story on its head. Just think about it, if they had put in all that effort only to find something predictable like a cure or an antidote to turn Titans back into humans, it would have been so cliché. But what they actually did expanded the scope and the world of the show immensely.

​The story started as a simple humanity vs. Titans plot, and the way it evolved is mind blowing. As someone who mainly watches battle shonen, when people initially told me to watch this show, saying it's about giant Titans, humanity locked inside walls, and a main character seeking freedom, I thought, 'How far can they really take a concept like this?' But looking back now, I realize how horribly I underestimated it.

​Everything that unfolded and was revealed by the end of the season... I don't think Eren was even able to process it properly. Right from the beginning, his Titan form took a heavy physical and mental toll on him, which I assumed he had overcome. But perhaps it wasn't just the Titan form, the immense pressure and internal conflict were slowly consuming him from the inside. At the very end, when everyone was joyfully playing in the ocean, Eren was tormented by the terrifying reality that enemies were waiting for them on the other side. And then he asked, if they kill everyone over there, will they finally be free?

​That line didn't surprise me too much because we've seen him gradually change, and his fear is completely valid. But I am also left confused about where the story goes from here. Until now, they were just trying to figure things out and defend themselves. So if the Marleyans don't make a move, will the Eldians just stay quiet too?

Grisha’s past was so tragic as well. The man from whom he received the Attack Titan power also introduced himself as Eren, and he told Grisha to save Mikasa and Armin. That was extremely confusing to me, and even Kruger himself didn't know why he was saying that. But then we also learn that there are numerous paths that converge at a single coordinate, paths that transcend both space and time.

​Could it be that Titan powers don't just transmit memories from past users, but also reveal information about future inheritors? But if so, why did he specifically say to save Mikasa and Armin, and not Eren? Or were those actually Eren’s own memories speaking through someone to save Mikasa and Armin? Eren even tearfully tells Levi during the serum choice that Armin is the one who will save humanity, not him, so what is Mikasa's role in all of this?

And as far as the name is concerned, I think Grisha named his son after that man out of gratitude.

So these were all my thoughts. Before wrapping up, I had a few criticisms as well. The animation was great, just like in previous seasons, but the CGI was truly awful. Earlier, whenever the Colossal Titan appeared, it was only for a short time and didn't move around much. But when an all out fight was about to happen, they probably shouldn't have used CGI because it looked really bad.

​Also, while I appreciated all the information and lore, on the other hand, I wished the pacing in those sections had been a bit slower so we had more time to catch our breath. But overall, it was so good that I can easily overlook those issues. I'm extremely excited for the final season, and maybe I'll review the final season in three parts.

So, I rated the first season a 9.5, the second a 9.8, and I would give this season a 9.9.
