Again, no spoilers here. I'm just asking about the anime.

My friend told me that the anime version wont cover the manga's ending. I have no idea how he knows this, but whatever. But anyway, after over 10 years of staying away from the manga, will I finally have to pick up the manga just to get the ending? If the anime adaption doesn't adapt the manga's ending, then is this anime even worth watching at all? Can this anime just be skipped and replaced by reading the manga chapters instead?

The Anime will have an ending, your friend is probably saying it won't be the same ending. The Manga ending is a bit controversial and slightly hated in the fandom, so there's this conspiracy theory of an Anime-Original ending. However, most ending haters don't understand the story and a good amount still like it. Therefore, I think the Anime will have the same ending, albeit expanded with more content as it is quite rushed, but an Anime-Original ending is still possible, only time will tell. I, for one, love the ending and I know many others who do, don't set yourself up for disappointment just because others don't like it, form your own opinion when you see it for yourself and don't listen to the haters, Mappa knows what it's doing. Hope this helped.

The ending is just going to be adapted, why wouldn't it?

"b-bUT tHE HiNts!"

But nothing. AOT heavily referenced the manga for almost every shot, it's impossible for them to make a different ending.

Hell, making the canon ending is going to be 10x easier.

Up to you, wait if you can wait. If the ending is different, read the manga after watching the anime, or watch the anime after reading the manga. Just make sure you don't get spoiled here and there.

What's the point of this post? There's a 99% chance the ending will be the same as the manga, albeit maybe with some slight changes. Your friend is full of nonsense. And even if he is somehow correct, you should wait and see how the ending shapes out first before asking if it's the same as the manga or not.

As a sole anime watcher, I don’t get why the alteration of the ending, should it transpire, deprives the anime of its value.

Quite the contrary, I would only give us more flavors and different pathways to envision the story we passionately loved.


In the end, I don’t know why people care so much about the ending, you watch anime to have a good time, a good or bad ending doesn’t impact the fact that you had a worthwhile, it CAN’T change past.

Don't read the manga, it's trash. Wait for the anime, I think the ending will seem less trash in the anime or may be even more trash....... it can go either way

In case of aot, its manga has always been the inferior version (except s4p1), so just don't read it.

After MAPPA has stated final season is gonna be two cours, i heavily suspect there will be lots of original content, not only an altered ending. i just can't see how else are these few chapters gonna register into two cours.

there is no cour, it's actually two special eps of 1hr+ length which will presumably cover ch 131-134 and 135-139

Hmm.... this sounds more plausible. there's contradicting infos going in the internet so we'll have to see when the air time comes.

Personally i hope it's indeed a special episode. i'm not fond of studios significantly changing material, unless they're minor changes that don't affect whole plot.

It's technically improbable, but not impossible. And honestly, if any anime would pull off something like that, it would be Attack on Titan.

No one can know what the ending in the anime will be like until we see it. It's most likely that it will follow manga's ending, just because that's how every anime does it, but it's also possible that it will be an exception. It's still worth watching the anime either way, and maybe reading the manga after.

I'm well aware of that, I know Wit got rid of a lot of dialogue scenes, but it's still nothing too major like changing an ending or leaving out a whole arc. Overall, it's a very close adaptation, especially MAPPA's work.

The manga ending was VERY disappointing, that is why manga readers are hoping for an anime original ending (aoe) but most likely it won't happen or at least there is no reason to belive they won't adapt the manga ending. And yes if there will be an aoe it would be definitely worth the watch, it can be only better than the manga ending.
