| bro, I'm speechless... That was incredible, especially that ending, I was moved. I liked the very well done designs and landscapes, the soundtracks are great, matching the actions. 10/10. |

| Were there any major changes between this and the manga's ending? Because I very distinctly remember the entire internet shitting on it a couple of years back but people have mostly received the anime's ending fairly well. And I couldn't see anything egregiously terrible about it myself, despite finding certain aspects of it underwhelming. While I thought it was a powerful sendoff in many respects that very nicely tied into the central themes, it also felt a bit too safe and derivative. Eren's plan to achieve peace was startlingly similar to Lelouch's in Code Geass and Veidt's in Watchmen. |

| @LoveLikeBlood Isayama is a fan of watchmen, so that's definitely where the inspiration comes from. I haven't watch Watchmen but I have read up interviews of Isayama mentioning that series way back in 2014. |
| Watching this as I keep up to date about Palestine and irl events just finished and i can’t wrap my head around how somebody could fail to appreciate the masterpiece that this ending is and that this show was. |
| Even after knowing what happens watching the finale gives off a more satisfying feeling the manga failed to do especially in regards to the closure. The tree being the focal point to conclude the series was a nice touch and the characters setting off to resume their lives without titans just hit different. Mikasa's scarf gifted from Eren and even the memories from under the tree tie the story together. What a way to end the series, the ending scene that peeked way into the future was an interesting way to go out. The lands around the tree in paradis showed that they ended up creating that titan free world but it still met demise. |
| Connie was right. They just got lucky because Falco was able to fly but without him, they would all have been dead by then. There's only one solution to this and that's to kill Eren once and for all. I just hope Mikasa will be able to confess her true feelings for him before they manage to eliminate him. Ugh...it pains me to see that Levi couldn't fight in full action! And to think this is the last season. Ymir's feelings for King Fritz were a surprise to me, but makes a lot of sense why she still went back to him after managing to save herself. I still don't understand why is that though. Perhaps because all her life, she was a slave, and she was envious the moment she saw King Fritz showing affection to his wife. Ymir probably wanted it too. Mikasa kissing Eren's head reminded me of "School Days." I wonder what Ymir thought of that when she saw that scene. I've been reading people's take on the ending and it seems to me that most of them didn't want Mikasa to move forward, meet a man, and marry him. As for me, I'm fine with that. I don't want her to live her life in despair. It's worse than death. Also, it helps the Ackerman bloodline to live on. 8/10 |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| This surreal feeling makes me question existence. How I wish it would last. The set piece for where this whole battle took place was sweet. Titans fighting on top of a Titan. Eren had his minions in the unexpected battle. I thought it would have been them versus the ground Titans with a glimpse to catch Eren off guard. Seeing the past inheritors of the Titans was awesome. The back-and-forth transformations. The rebellion within the former Titans to find free will. I was expecting the talk no jutsu, but doubit it would ever work. Still thinking if there could have been another way. The melodramatic scenes afterwards too with Armin and Mikasa. I mean regardless of the outcome war never changed. Politics and power will corrupt, will cause hostility. In a way Eren got what he wanted and at the same time didn't. He made the ultimate sacrifice and sacrificed others. A walking duality/ dichotomy of a man. I understand why he would be Protagonist and Antagonist of the year. It had to be Mikasa to close the deal. I hate the last episode of Animes knowing there's nothing left. Only another anime can dull the feeling. Thank you for this story Isayama. The metaphors live on for life. A masterpiece |

| Miles better than the manga but I lowkey still hated it 😭 |
| The worst thing ever created |
| The writing here was terrible, and Eren should have won and/or have an actual motive behind his action, still emotional tho. Amazing series up to the rumbling then it went to shit. Well still, gonna miss this show. |
| I have no words. This is insanity. Just wow. I hate it but at the same time I enjoyed it. I still hate the creator for making Eren kill 80 % of humanity. Can someone explain why Eren suddenly had to do this and why he wanted it so badly? |
