Attack on Titan
Truly peak fiction. We can only go down from here. |
 |
| Ok i will answer with irony as well. I disliked the new ending because all the "Here are 10 reasons that AoT ending was great" articles and essays need to be rewritten. |
| Ruined it for me even more. Paradise built up a whole new world only for it to be destroyed. |
| Completely unnecessary, vague and meh. |
| "Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question. But that's beyond the reach of these small hands." Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| It's like the story is even more pointless now as it seems to be repeating in a loop. (whoever that was at the end probably entered the tree and got hallucigenia'd and titan powers came back) |

| Imagine how boring this world would be without Japan - a comment at youtube |
| A total disaster lol |
| Already thought it was bad since 137. But atleast im kinda happy because i was right about Paradis getting destroyed after 139 defenders saying that peace is still possible lmao |
| unnecessary, extra pages made the ending worse. |
| Everyone has times when they've come up against a wall and feel like giving up on everything and running away. But you mustn't forget that during these times when the going is rough, the soul inside of you will try to create something to break through that wall. And don't forget that in your suffering there is something very precious. We're all suffering in agony with our troublesome lives. Sometimes it comes to tears. When that happens, let it flow as much as it wants. If it still doesn't stop flowing, then we'll come and mop it up. - Gintoki |
| oh god, awful. The extra chapter is unnecessary |
 |
| it's like someone ran over your pet then ran back and took a shit on the corpse |

PillowDevil said: It took me quite a while to understand the last few pages, and so far I'm trying to figure out what the fuck Isayama was thinking about. No matter how many times I read it, I can't understand how the hell he came up with that idea. He didn't want to have a happy full peace ending, but he also didn't want the alliance to face the consequences for stopping Eren directly, so instead of the world destroying Paradis within a decade he made it happen after they are long gone. He also didn't want to face the criticism that Mikasa became a young widow tied to Eren's grave, so he made her move on with another man without actually having her move on at all. He wanted to have his cake and eat it too, completely spineless. He will probably gauge the reactions and use the character encyclopedia to double down or retract things. |
| the way that isayama really fucking ruined his once-great series, it's one of the biggest tragedies i have ever witnessed through entertainment media or shit. |

Wrapping up a story is indeed a difficult task and it depends of how many loose ends you have. All Isayama had to do for a satisfying ending, was follow through with any logical conclusion of the conflict he had set up. With the last twist the entire narrative collapsed to make MIkasa the key to everything and it ended up making both Eren, Mikasa and Ymir look worse. Every serious theme that gave the story weight became just a gimmick that adds edge. I can't think of a possible conclusion that is worse than this. A joke ending that he woke up in highschool would have been better. |

A joke ending that he woke up in highschool would have been better. Ngl, that joke highschool ending is still funny. And i definitely can agree that the ending can be written better. I look foward to see how the anime will do that since the author does work with the studio both mappa and wit. Maybe he'll find a way to adjust the ending after giving it some more thought but we'll probably gonna be back to complain a year later :) I don't think that there is enough time for adjustments in the anime, the storyboards are probably already finished for all episodes and Mappa is cutting it close having to animate the rumbling scenes (they also have a gazillion projects). You can only hope that Isayama pre-discussed changes with Mappa or he bamboozles everyone with a different ending for the anime. If this ends up animated as is it will be a disaster, because anime is less forgiving in bad transitions. I mean look at part1 , the direction was very basic simply following the manga panel by panel. |

I mean look at part1 , the direction was very basic simply following the manga panel by panel. Yeah, part 1 was really faithful. With stuff getting cut out or shorten for the marley arc, i think the 2nd arc was very well adapted. Seeing it animated is very satisfying. I guess the anime will definitely have the same ending but i would still have faith in some original scenes for the last ep just like that one with willy and his children. I still forward to seeing the rumbling arc animated. Despite the ending, there were so many great moments. You are very optimistic. Sadly optimists are usually the people that get the biggest amount of disappointment. I wish that you get what you hope for. |
| They're uh... they're shit The original ending was actually better. Can't believe I'm praising it. |
 |
| Good, a realistic one, people seems to know nothing about history and how human work |
| I keep moving forward |
| While I feel better about the ending, it helps to reaffirm how disappointing the entire final arc was. I lowered my score because of it, but I actually feel a bit relieved as a result. |

| Eh. It's kind of just in the "whatever" category for me. I still have the manga as a 9/10 overall |

| I liked the extra panel which were added , I am glad Mikasa decided to move forward and lastly most of the people are disappointed as according to them Eren accomplished nothing as paradise was destroyed , for them they have to remember Eren is not god , this would have happened someday or the other Eren just delivery the process , it seem more realistic to me |

Oh it's those damn haters again. What does ending haters even mean? Is this a new way to discredit anyone that does not agree with your worldview? I don't harbor any hatred, just disappointment. |

| AOT/Stay Night : Unlimited Bait Works, By Hajime Isayama |
| YOOO FLOCH WAS RIGHT! PLus the ending was shit and it's still shit, I guess we are waiting for the Shingeki Shippuden LOL |
 |
| They made this ending better for me. Those panels didn't fix it (there are still those weird panels with Eren and Armin, or with Reiner sniffing letter written by Historia), but improved it and enhanced it to make it more consistent and entertaining to read. In short, those extra pages didn't fix the ending and didn't ruin it. It just improved it in a good way (though improvements were not that big, thus I can't say that this ending was fixed greatly; it was just enriched with additional content, making the whole chapter a little bit better than it was before). |
| the extra panels were just teasing a possible sequel. It's the kind of thing you see if you wait around after the credits of a blockbuster movie. Not a big deal. |
