| Hmmm.. HAHAHAHA In the end congrats to AOT for finishing the manga even this ending was kinda funny and the last arc too.. |
| Wow tbr this chapter felt like some half-assed esoteric fanfiction. Was kinda dissapointed in SnK took after he pulled that Endgame-esque plot bs earlier on but I can't be completely mad since the first 130 chapters were indeed a wild ride. I went in thinking this was another overhyped shounen series 5 years ago to walking out with a philosophy degree and a new perspective on life. There were moments that felt miscalculated and especially messy but I feel like these mistakes only reinforce how human SnK is even if the ending fucked everyone over. Thanks for the many twists, turns, and headaches Isayama. Imma take a nap now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Chapters 1-131: mid to high 8 Chapters 131-139: low 6 Overall Rating: mid to high 7 |
| This manga was a 7/10 for me. The salty EreHisu shippers giving this a 1 because their girl knocked up a farmer to save herself. |
123moh555 said: nowandforever said: the fact you were fine with whatever ending as long your ship sails is really funny...okay? and that’s why i started watching aot too. i literally said that isayama should not have introduced romance if he was going to throw it away like this and not properly execute it. he should’ve never introduced EM if mikasa (FMC) was going to end up with jean (side character) in the last six pages with no development. it’s not all about who mikasa rides at all, which is why i’m mad that isayama wasted his final pages on this when no one cares if mikasa moves on and has kids/who she marries. the pages should’ve been extra clarification like he said they would be. not sure why you keep bringing up EM as if it automatically discredits everything else i say lmaoooo where did i say that? in fact, i said the opposite.. that it doesn’t matter who mikasa marries and yams shouldn’t have focused on that in the final 8 pages. it’s even funnier and very pathetic how ppl like you see anyone mention EM and automatically assume that’s the only part of the story i cared about lmaoooo |
123moh555 said: nowandforever said: you are mad for mikasa moving on with her life and marring another guy in 8 pages, but you are completely fine of her 1-dimension love for 138 chp and only couple of pages from the last chapter when it turns out it's mutual because it's " well-written tragic romance "? It seems you don't get it, people hated her because she's literally the same characters from the beginning to the end, nothing more than eren simp,no development whatsoever, and the last chapter is the same as for the extra pages, a badly written forced romance in a story that has no place for itwhere did i say that? in fact, i said the opposite.. that it doesn’t matter who mikasa marries and yams shouldn’t have focused on that in the final 8 pages. it’s even funnier and very pathetic how ppl like you see anyone mention EM and automatically assume that’s the only part of the story i cared about lmaoooo that’s on you if you hate mikasa, and seems like that’s why you’re so against EM despite the fact there was development there and clear hints towards it.. eren’s whole attitude towards her changed after chapter 50, and it was implied all along that there was going to be some form of romance between the two. anyone who says it wasn’t has intentionally chosen to ignore it, especially when the unadapted scenes in 121, 123, 130 etc are such obvious hints on eren’s feelings towards her. i’m not mad at mikasa marrying another guy, i’m mad that there was no development between her and the NPC. these characters aren’t real, so if the development is not shown, it didn’t happen. and i’m sure we can agree that if mikasa was such an “eren simp” for 10 years straight, it’s out of character for her to marry a random guy so suddenly, no? THAT is what i’m disappointed about, its inconsistent to who mikasa has proven to be for the last 138 chapters, and seems like yams has pulled it out of his ass for the sake of setting up a sequel with an ackerman descendant as the protagonist. |

The salty EreHisu shippers giving this a 1 because their girl knocked up a farmer to save herself. Historian fans need to decide if y’all want her to be Mother Teresa or Olivier Armstrong. She’s a way better mother than their mom. You guys are just mad that Eren didn’t kill everyone to go fuck Historia in a barn. |
yaegerist-15 said: PeaceForeverMe said: lol how one-dimensional can you be? If I would've known that aot is about friendship and toxic love instead of more complex themes, then I shouldve never watched it. Keep your friendship theory for yourself after that retcon of ending Historian fans need to decide if y’all want her to be Mother Teresa or Olivier Armstrong. None of those themes were discarded tho. Freedom. Knowledge. Selfishness vs Selflessness. Life v Death. Those were all explored in the last chapter. Was it needlessly vague? Yes. But I assure those themes were present. For some reason, out of all the things that bugged people — It was Eren being a “simp”, even thought that’s one of the least offensive things about the ending. His romantic attraction to Mikasa could’ve been foreshadowed better. But it’s way better than EreHisu taking a blackmail seen “worst girl in the world” and making it romantic. |
| I honestly didn't like it, I don't understand how some people like it. It does not fit in anything with the series. A trashy ending. |

| Damn, I hate the pathetic ending that Levi had. He, who was supposed to be the invincible super powerful character ended up losing an eye, three fingers, and the ability to walk properly, while all the other characters ended perfectly healthy, with a complete body. I already hated it when he got his first injuries, but then I was expecting that the author would find a way to make Levi act like a badass even without the fingers, but he ended up being almost useless in the final battle, and was even humiliated by Zeke, who basically asked to be killed by Levi, who had been grumbling about having the killing of Zeke as his goal, which sounded like the announcement of a final fight against the last boss that was bound to happen, but that was just another disappointment after all... And I'm quite sure that it hadn't been confirmed that Levi had lost the vision of his right eye until the last chapter, but unfortunately the eye was shown totally white, so that confirms it. And the same goes for his leg. I thought there was hope that his leg would be healed, but then he was drawn on a wheelchair just to make sure to let the readers know that he ended as a cripple. And the ending of the series as a whole was also terrible. Eren's conversation with Armin, which was supposed to explain why he did what he did, didn't really explain anything. It was a very stupid decision, and also very out of character. Considering the moral values that Eren had been defending up to that point, killing the majority of humanity could never be an option in his mind. It was very easy to notice that Zeke's solution was the more humane one, and it would have been a much better writing if a problem occurred that did not allow Zeke's plan to work, instead of making the protagonist of the series oppose it. Another terrible thing that appeared in one of the last chapters was that conversation between Zeke and Armin, in which Zeke defends the evolutionism bullshit, and says that people just live to reproduce the species, to which Armin replies with the existentialist argument, that life is pointless but can have meanings created according to one's subjective desires. This is a very dangerous line of thought, that leads people to become degenerates, disregarding the objectivity of moral values, and denying the absolute truth of Christianity. The only great thing of the ending is that the titan owners, who had a lot of death flags, survived and even had their limit of years of life removed. And some other good details were how Hange was shown somehow going to Heaven, and also Sasha appearing as a spirit, which didn't seem to be supposed to be illusions seen by the characters, but real things. Mahdir99 said: Any person who does not support mass genocide will support this ending. What the fuck? The mass genocide is precisely what happened, and was caused by the protagonist of the series, so it's obviously the other way around: Any person who does not support mass genocide will definitely not support this ending, with a trash of human who caused genocide being treated as if his actions were somehow justifiable. |

 I, uh, am not sure what happened, but i guess Isayama had a different idea of what he was writing. |
| 2/10,After the time i post this,all of my love,all of my memories,all of something i adore from my fav and first anime,Attack on Titan, Vanished. What a shame,the memories and everything we've been through must come to an end that no one wants it in a horrible way,The buildup for Eren plan,The rumbling it's all ruined by the Anticlimatic happy bruh moment ending, F-ck you yams for making this awful ending instead of End of Evangelion,i always praise aot as the real eva successor,but you make it to code geass instead. My bias and memories wont let me rate this a 2 i though my aot bias is dethroned after i finish the whole monogatari series and after completing jojo steel ball run,but too late,both have take over aot,now i don't give a shit about this again anymore,from number 1 to number 3,what a shame... |

| Now that the dust has settled and even normies and twitter stans lost their care about SnK... Was this the worst ending in the manga history? |

Shadzzo said: Very subjective question, since it cannot be said that it is the worst ending, because there are too many.Now that the dust has settled and even normies and twitter stans lost their care about SnK... Was this the worst ending in the manga history? Although in my case, for me it is the worst ending I have ever seen (the only one I have seen so far that is almost as bad, is erased). I am not a fan of AOT, but I always felt "respect" to the series for how good it was, until the end came, with plot holes, poorly developed themes, some character contradictions and unnecessary things, in addition to the fact that the basis of the story (which would be why the titans existed because of ymir) is very poorly explained and has very little logic. That does not mean that the series is good, it had its moments, but the final arc together with the end make it look very bad that at some point it could have been remembered very well. I can still enjoy the series, but personally I will not see it again as before. Maybe in a few years, when there is not so much fanaticism, it will be better analyzed. |

| Decided to catch up with SNK after the outrage and ... it's completely understandable , i was dissapointed , I just can't look at it positively , too chaotic and with an unsatisfying ending. Not really surprised though |
Xilver said: I, uh, am not sure what happened, but i guess Isayama had a different idea of what he was writing. Thats just one of many interviews that contradicts his last one, and in general the ending we got. Ochkam razor would tell you this was a retcon+ damage control and public relations management, either forced or sold out of greed. |
ShoriTora said: Shadzzo said: Now that the dust has settled and even normies and twitter stans lost their care about SnK... Was this the worst ending in the manga history? I'm personally lukewarm on the ending so maybe I'm being too forgiving but I don't think in any sane world was this the "worst ending in manga history". You could probably make an argument for the worst ending to a popular manga but I'm sure there's way worse out there when considering the scope of every manga ever. I feel like "worst ending in manga history" is mere hyperbole. But it is the worst ending in manga history. In fact for me it's the worst ending of any story in any form or medium. Can you name a manga with a worse ending? |
ShoriTora said: shyn_M21 said: But it is the worst ending in manga history. In fact for me it's the worst ending of any story in any form or medium. Can you name a manga with a worse ending? I don't think its fair to say its the worst manga ending in history when you've only read 12 manga, you can say its the worst manga ending you've seen, but saying its the worst manga ending ever when you only have a small pool of manga to compare them to of your own experience to I feel is unfair. Also, of the limited manga I've read, I'd say the ending to Seven Deadly Sins was very disappointing, or rather just had a very gradual decline which just made it unenjoyable for a large portion of the final 70-80 chapters of the story. I feel like when compared to the AOT ending at least AOT attempted to play with its themes such as the idea of inherited will in interesting ways. Seven Deadly Sins ending is just kinda seeing how many characters can they fight with minimal set up and no character development apart from one character who I think's ending is really nice. Seven Deadly Sins didn't really have that for me, the final 20 or so chapters in particular just felt like just a drag to set up for the sequel manga (AOT on the other hand does feel like a conclusion, and I don't think the extra pages confirm a sequel according to apparently popular belief, Isayama and his editor have echoed this sentiment that they have no plans for one). Also with Seven Deadly Sins the dip in quality had been going on for a while whereas my issues with the final arc only really start to appear around 126, which between that and chapter 139 take up less than 10% of the entire story. Anyway yh my point stands that I don't think calling it the "worst ending in manga history" is a fair literal statement, and is greatly exaggerated. Saying "for me it's the worst ending of any story" I think is a fairer comparison if u know what I'm saying. First of all I didn't read only 12 mangas i dont manage this account very well.i actually read more manga than anime because it usually is better and faster and kinda a preference. Second, although i agree the ending(imo the whole last 10 volumes) of seven deadly sins were the weakest point of the series it still didnt destroy everything that came before. Like i can still read or watch sdd and enjoy it for what it is. Or i can giva you another example: tokyo ghoul re's ending. Despite how the dragon arc was rushed and ishida's writing went downhill it was still satisfying and didn't destroyed or ret conned kaneki's character. The ending itself was really good but the road to it could have been better. Now compare them to aot. Almost every character gets absolutely butchered(especially eren and reiner), it creates plotholes, ret conns, unanswered questions and destroying the whole series at least for me. I can no longer watch s1 again or read the first volume and enjoy it. And did you really say aot attempted to "play with it themes"? It completely ignored them! The sins of the father, the cycle of hatred,freedom,etc none of the gets resolved. The only ending i can think of to compare to thos is got s8 and imo this is worse. Got's writing started to go downhill at the last episode of s4 when it ignored the tysha story line and cutted the conversation between jaime and Tyrion. And even after s8 i wasnt as dissatisfied as i am now because at least i had the books and hope for martin and the source material. But this IS the source material. Its not some anime changing ending thing so i can say "well thats too bad. But at least i have the manga" so yeah,thats why i think its the worst ending in manga history imo. At least domestic girlfriend was just a harem romance bs from the start. Not a potential masterpiece! |

So an ending that dealt with all the remaining hinted plotlines and characters (NNT) is worse than plot-hole filled rushed ending (SNK)? Wake up. |
| People don't like the ending of Isayama, it's ok. But to say that ending was shit because you don't like it, jesus. I think the majority of people didn't even understand the message coming from the whole manga and the ending. Kinda sad |
Praise the Sun! That we are born in this era, to watch anime. |
