Shingeki no Kyojin: The Final Season Part 2

Turning against his former allies and enemies alike, Eren Yeager sets a disastrous plan in motion. Under the guidance of the Beast Titan, Zeke, Eren takes extreme measures to end the ancient conflict between Marley and Eldia—but his true intentions remain a mystery. Delving deep into his family's past, Eren fights to control his own destiny.

Meanwhile, the long-feuding nations of Marley and Eldia utilize both soldiers and Titans in a brutal race to eliminate the other. Reiner Braun uses his own powers in a desperate bid to hold off Eren's own militaristic force, and his fellow Eldians—children Falco Grice and Gabi Braun—struggle to survive in the unfolding chaos.

Elsewhere, Eren's childhood friends Mikasa Ackerman and Armin Arlert remain imprisoned alongside Eren's former Survey Corps companions, all disturbed by Eren's monstrous transformation. Under the blind belief that Eren still secretly harbors good intentions, Mikasa and the others enter the fray in an attempt to save their friend's very soul.

We all make mistakes. Humans makes mistakes because common sense sometimes outwits our own intellect. Attack on Titan defies the logic of common sense with the presence of titans. By trascending beyond logic, we have been graced with one of the most popular anime franchises in recent memory. Oh yes, say hello to Attack on Titan the Final Season Part 2. This season needed to be split multiple parts because logic dedicates that it does not have enough episodes to conclude the story.

However, make no mistake. The producers wanted to adapt the manga to its completion. This show has been practically sitting on a ... goldmine of popularity that it's just the obvious goal to complete. It begins directly from part 1 with no recapping but instead with our characters thrown into a chaotic struggle at Shiganshina. The struggle between the Eldains and Marleyans continue to breed the battlegrounds with blood, destruction, and death. More importantly, one of the primary objectives in the early stages of this season is to prevent Eren making contact with Zeke. As you expect, the first episode begins as a chaotic warfare involving soldiers, warriors, and Titans. Important characters such as Porco, Pieck, and Reiner makes their presence known for their actions. To be fair, this season is going to be a lot of bloodshed so having an arm blown off is treated more like a meme than a shocker moment. Right, Pieck?

Jokes aside, Attack on Titan's Final Season (Part 2) brings together an important evolution of storytelling. When we watch Eren's plan come to fruition, you have to realize how much of an impact it can have on their entire world. I'm talking about genocide, perhaps the extinction of humankind itself. Adapted out of the manga, 'The Rumbling' is an extraordinary event taking place this season. It chronicles a dark and grim reality for all life that concerns with the Marley and Eldians. While this season doesn't adapt The Rumbling at its fullest, it does bring in many questions for the anime only audience. Will anyone be able to stop The Rumbling? Who will live and who will die? What will be the ultimate outcome of Eren's plan in the end? Sadly, those questions won't have their full answers this season. However, you can fully expect the anime to capitalize on the importance of such an event.

Attack on Titan has been known for its deep character emotions and this season is also no exception. In particular episode, we are greeted with a mixed cast of characters from different sides of the war. However, it is Yelena who truly brings out the emotions out of guys such as Jean and Reiner. It's a pivotal moment to show that the past has not been forgotten. Jean has changed so much from his rookie years as a survey corps member to a loyal soldier fighting for his cause. Knowing the truth hurt him but he also realized what must be done for the greater good. Furthermore, we are also reintroduced to another prominent character from the Warrior Unit. I won't spoil it but let's just say that their presence makes this season that much more interesting.

Finally, we can't forget the Jaegerists, a group of rebels with their own agenda. Formed from members of the Paradis Island, they stand as a major obstacle against Mikasa, Armin, Pieck, Porco, Hange, Jean, and the rest of their new alliance. The episodes later this season highlights how far they'll go to push their plan even it means killing whoever stands in their way. And that is a common theme about Attack on Titan. There's bloodshed and death, where sacrifices are needed for a greater cause. Eren's goal is perhaps the most controversial for he puts entire mankind and the ecosystem at risk. Nonetheless, that makes this season worth so much more enticing to watch.

It's 12 episodes but common sense designates that this season needed more episodes to flesh out the rest of the story. Trust me, it's not enough for this season and of course, Wit Studio and its producers would take this show to the next season. This franchise is literally a goldmine that pushes the limits of popularity in modern years and I hope its success continues.

Mixed Feelings

So, second part of the fourth season left a sour taste in my mouth. After a more than stellar part 1, which using the strength of its medium is capable of allying great direction and storytelling to elevate its source material. What we're giving on part 2 is a greater reliance on the manga's and the weight and impact of its story, that ultimately ends up crumbling over the weight of its own hype.
These flaws are not so glaring during the first episodes, the peace which the story moves is hectic enough for these things to be thrown into the background. It is when things ... slow down that we're able to see the uninventive shots, the flat dialogues, a lack of direction for characters and story, just after the greater event of the season just happened.
Also, for some reason, at some points the animation is downright ugly, as if they applied photoshop sharpening filter into it.

Freedom and High morals will never be alongside.

What happened to “Shinzou Wo Sasageyo” (devote your heart) and all the sacrifices and the deaths by the titans especially by Reiner Bertholdt and Annie, all that rage and striving for freedom?? simply in one season does not exist anymore! The creators are switching heroes. Is that even allowed? ohh what can we do to stop the desecration of one of the best shows ever? Unfortunately, it's already desecrated. there is no way back. This has been happening a lot in recent years to the great shows like GOT, the creators are switching heroes and destroying everything they ... built behind.

The freedom of our beloved once was the theme of AOT at the beginning, when it was a great show, now it is full of high morals the fake one actually. The creator is trying to manipulate our feelings by playing empathetic music "sad music" when the human outside the wall dies and playing anempathetic Music "exciting music" when the Eldians inside the wall dies. this just show the creator has racism issues.

Ignoring the death of their families and trying to protect the others
How could the creator of AOT be more fake than this

Let us not forget Marley was ruling the world using the titans' power and when the world was trying to overpower the titans, Marley plane was to hold the power of the founding titan by destroying the paradis island, so their goal was not to protect the world from the titans it's to rule the world.

this what the Eldians do before but the las king tried to stop the suffering of the world and he punish himself and his people in a prison for more than one hundred years, but the world want to do more and tries to still the founding titan and destroy all the Eldians.

one example of the creator fake Morality:
Marley sent four warriors for this mission and this cause in a ton of death, Reiner Bertholdt and Annie should be the enemy of every Eldian inside the walls, not only because they destroyed the wall also, they betrayed their friendship and threaten their families, but we see them laughs, eat together, and killing their other friends from inside the wall, as they forget everything. or the creator is full of shit and high morals.

Eren trying to destroy the world is something extreme there is some other solution but this one is accepted from his point of view, if the world tries to destroy your home country and you have the power to kill the entire world, what woold you do? you will allow the world to kill your family and your beloved one? or will you destroy them all?

I am outraged from this kind of plot switching in recent years, but why, it's just an anime right? .. it was my hobby for the last 20 years, so it's not ok, this hidden messages in the recent shows are made me think of quitting anime and start doing something better in my free time, better than turned to a pussy as they are hardly trying to do "trying to turn us all to pussies with fake morality".

These fake morals made me want to vomit.

"Me against the world it's a hard decision to make, but my family against the world is the easiest" .. Fake Morality hater.
