TLDR: Most of it is a rant about how I feel about aot and why the hate for the ending makes no sense to me. The main question is the bold giant text at the end if you don't want to read the whole thing. Attack on titan s1-3 while not my favourite thing ever, (although with me being newer to anime it was pretty up there) It was to me absolutely amazing. In s1 in particular, the characters and story were a bit too simplistic for me to call the show anything more than "very good". but then with season 2 and 3, the show actually got developments, that made the plot and characters far more interesting than they were ever before. S4p1 continued that trend, but the rushed release and studio change massively affected it's production quality. S3 was a small drop for that same reason, but the drop of to s4p1 was drastic. It was around here when the manga ended, and the hate for the ending was almost unanimous. I did not believe them. because up to s4p1's end, AOT Had 0 major blunders. It felt like fully planned out story, and all the pieces fell together seamlessly, how can a show with one of the strongest examples having the entire thing planned out from the start, fail at the ending? That's absolute nonsense. But then.... In S4p2, after the rumbling.... everything changed. the plot was suddenly directionless. The rumbling had just happened yet we spend an entire episode on Conny stealing some kid to feed his mother, the entire cast decides to fight/save Eren, even though as far as they knew, it would be impossible. Eren could have taken away their power anytime he wanted. Yet the cast was more than willing to kill their comrades even though it visibly hurt them, for something that would be logically impossible. That.... scared me. I thought, how could the show possibly start messing up NOW? had isayama only planned the story up to the rumbling? and for around a year, that was what I believd. but then.... The first special happened, and with eren announcing that they are "free" to stop him, my main problem was solved.... in a way that still didn't fix s4p2 but at least it wouldn't be a problem going forward. My hopes were still low though, the internet had convinced me that the ending is the worst thing ever, and after the obvious blunder of s4p2 I kinda believed them. I was also partly spoiled with my only context being "mikasa cuts off Erens head and kisses it". SO.... YOU SONS OF GUNS ALL LIED TO ME!!!! Can one of you help me understand what the fuck was so wrong with the ending, that one of the most overpraised pieces of great fiction was getting so much undeserved hate? I looked around to understand it, and the complaints included shit like: "Eren killing 80% of the population was bad and not justified" No shit sherlock, did you figure it out on your own. What makes you think Eren was suppose to be the HERO of the story? The show never hides how he massacred so many people nor does it say what he did was "right". His friends, lover, and the yeagerists support him to some degree, but like fucking OBVIOUSLY!!! What is wrong with the main character not being morally perfect? If you're about to say that's not it, then it's probably reason 2, which is somehow 100 times dumber than the already stupid reason 1. 2. Because giga chad eren is now a beta male who cries and bitches about his girl getting with another man. and to that I say go get help. If you measure the quality of writing by the chadness of the characters, go watch baki. not that baki is bad or anything, but genuinely go watch baki, it will probably become your all time favourite show. But no genuinely I want to understand, What is wrong with the ending? It's complete, it's satisfying, it makes sense, it completes the themes, Hell it even gives mikasa who I thought was one of the blandest characters in the show a satisfying conclusion to her arc, which makes her more interesting. so genuinely, what was so bad about the ending that even the simps who sucked off this show like it was sausage eating contest hated it? |

It just ruins characters and makes the previous actions all for nothing. I’m not asking for a happy ending but it’s rushed and makes the story building crumble at the end. Can’t possibly tell me it was good in any regard |

People complain to complain but I agree there’s nothing wrong with the ending it was very good and well done personally I think the people who disliked it either don’t get it like they couldn’t figure it out or it didn’t end all happy like they wanted which honestly doesn’t make sense the show was dark from the absolute beginning what did they expect P.s I didn’t read all that but I got the gist |

You must understand that a lot of viewers/readers are 14-17 year olds who think that violence and dark themes are cool. For a lot of people, just that was enough to get angry about a relatively happy ending. Others were very angry because the manga condensed most of the Eren/Armin conversation and it was hard to read all the subtext in it for a lot of people. They made it abundantly more clear in the anime because they didn't have time/page constraints. And some just had a pre-built idea of the end that they wanted to see. I've seen and argued against people who literally thought that the twist of Eren indirectly killing his own mother was bad. They didn't even want that character development/didn't even understand such a simple twist. Thanks for this thread though. I have spent the last two years fighting the manga readers who hated the ending. Seeing so many people love it warms my heart. Isayama worked hard to make Eren one of the greatest protagonists of all time, and his work feels like it's finally paid off. |

I believe that some people were frustrated because they wanted a happy ending. They were upset on how Eren died, and on how things worked were unfair etc etc. But I loved the ending because for me real life itself is unfair, cruel, it can be good too but sometimes things in our lives make no sense. We always want answers from fiction and a happy end, but sometimes that doesn’t happen in real life itself. |

Like, We saw Eren manipulate the past in memories of the future, we knew he could have changed the past, and we knew he started the whole thing which then indirectly or even directly resulted in half the horrible shit that happened in the story. and we already knew The attack titan's power was seeing the future, which eren we once again knew, was following. I though eren regretting his mother's death was moment of having some regrets and actions that eat at him, similar to his conversation with the young boy in s4p3p1. I didn't even register it as a twist. |

@AndrwsAnimeList I mean, that was only implied, for all we knew the tree could be empty. There is no proof that the titans can come back, so if you don't like that, just imagine it's not the case. There is no proof of you being wrong. |

@Chisa_ki Explain what action was for nothing, and how was any of the characters ruined. |

Some people unironically argue, that murdering 80% (or even everyone) of the world is NOT wrong just because mommy died and would rather see Eren being a shallow, one dimensional villain. That is the problem. |

@Piromysl but that's crazy "mainstream" anime fans who eat raw brick for breakfast. It's not really the show's fault. The story doesn't say killing 80% of people is not wrong. In fact, it goes out of it's way to just show how wrong it is multiple times. If people don't see that, it's them being dumbasses. |

Quite literally the only part I "disliked" about the ending was that Jean ended up with Mikasa. They never even showed the slightest bit of romantic interest in any way or at any point in time. I'm with Eren on his speech with Armin, regardless on how selfish it is it should have been him or nobody. |

They wanted Eren to murder everyone, while his true goal was just to make Paradians a heroes, who will stop him and world will spare them. Overall, I think that AOT is a perfect example how people are prone to manipulation and propaganda. Some people unironically see nothing wrong with global genocide just because they have seen one side of the story, became emotionally attached to Eren and hate everyone who wronged him. But Gabi is receiving full hate for being basically just like Eren at the start of the story and killing fan favourite comic relief character. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the ending. As you said, it's conclusive and satisfying. People are just idiots. Honesty, when I saw this outrage two years ago, I was expecting something like aliens invading out of nowhere, Eren turning into a spaceship, Mikasa piloting him and them going together to destroy alien homeworld. |

Based on everything they have ever made, I'm pretty sure every person working at TRIGGER is high 24/7. It's probably a requirement to even get a position there. And that's why we love them. |

I'll give my opinions on why I thought the ending was bad, but if you check the score I gave it, it's 7. Here's why: First thing, the ending isn't all bad. I was enjoying it, even though it wasn't my favorite part of the series (being everything from Kenny to the beginning of the rumble). Up to the point where they're fighting Eren, it's a solid 8/10. When Armin has the vision with Eren, I begun thinking it was bad for a few reasons. Trying to make the viewer feel sorry for Eren at a point in the story where he has killed 80% of humanity doesn't work. It's obvious he wasn't all evil before the rumbling, but after season 3's ending, Isayama did quite a good job building Eren up to be an antagonist that has "good reasons" but does bad things because he think he's justified. That's good, that's great. Then, right at the ending, Eren starts crying like "ooohhhh i didnt want to do it 😭😭😭 i saw every future but it always ended on war so i thought that killing 80% of humanity was good so i could make you guys the heroes and then have you kill me like get me off of here man i dont want to deal with this anymore im just dumb lmao also sorry for killing you guys 😭😭😭". Like... what? That's such a bad turn of events at the worst possible time it's just funny. Even worse, the characters act like Eren wasn't all bad he just didn't know what to do. Like he was a tiny bit justified. For Mikasa, this works, she was alredy crazy for him, that's understandable. For Armin? Not so much, but ok, I can make that stretch. Now, for all the rest? Jean? Connie? FUCKING LEVI? Levi quite literally saw Erwin die because of Eren, then saw Hange die because of Eren, and he was like "ok maybe he wasn't that bad, he's just stupid...". I mean, what the fuck? The rushed "development" or "reason explaining" Eren does at the end was what made me dislike the thing at the end. It's not natural, it isn't good, it's hilariously bad. It's like Isayama thought he couldn't just make Eren a complex character by making he go the deep end and become a genocidal maniac so he made Eren feel bad for what he did but he had no choice to do otherwise. This is another problem. Eren said he gave up because he tried countless futures and none worked. Ok, understandable, that's human nature and war's hardly going anywhere anytime soon. So why didn't Eren ask for Hange's help? Or Armin's? Or for anyone's help? You telling me he's all good telling his powers to Floch so he can kill 80% of humanity, but talking to his friends about his future seeing powers is a no go? Like wtf. It doesn't make any sense. Another reason the ending was bad was the scene where Eren told he killed his mother because otherwise Bertolt would die. That was just funny. Out of nowhere and for no reason at all besides making the reader be like poor Eren he was """"forced""""" to kill his mom :( Besides that? The ending was good. Eren loyalists still exist, people hate eldians because of Eren, but Armin and our bros will still try to make peace a thing. And Mikasa became a celibate because no Eren for her anymore. Anything that had to do with Eren and his motives and the characters trying to make it even slightly ok was bad. That's what I thought of it, basically. |

I can't speak for everyone else, but as far as I am concerned the whole story was pointless. I've been watching since the beginning. I even watched that dumb high school SnK anime. The Wit stuff was enjoyable. Never amazing, like people on the internet say, but a solid 8/10. Then MAPPA took over. When MAPPA came on, it was at the same time all the biggest story mysteries had been answered. The Survey Corp had done everything. So of course, the next step was a time skip. Eren became the 2010s version of Sasuke. Tons of fans hating on him despite his very real reasons for doing dark things and other people on the other side defending everything he did. I was almost always team Sasuke, but Eren became unrelatable to me after he grew up. The story boxed itself into two paths right around here. Either Eren dies or he succeeds and everyone dies. Considering how dark their world was, I could definitely see Eren pulling it off. But the mangaka found a third path. Eren dies, but still kinda succeeds. This third path ain't it. If we are doing a Death Note, let our MC go all the way. If we are doing a Code Geass, give our MC a great redemption. In the end, all the story is about is the fact that everything sucks and always will. Which is a great sentiment. I personally believe in it. But when I see this sentiment in anime, I want a daring compelling ending alongside of it. Eren gets to have his cake. But then it falls on the ground and he can't finish it. That's pretty frustrating for anybody. But even more so for a viewer expecting a payoff for all the narrative risks the mangaka took. There was no pay off and honestly, if you want to watch an anime about how humans suck, there are plenty of movies, OVAs, and 12 episode anime that make the same point as good as if not better than SnK. Vinland Saga season 2 aired this year and also told an imperfect story about how human suck. Also it's longer than 12 episodes. But it accomplished more in 24 episodes than SnK did with 2 seasons and 2 movies. Isayama couldn't stick the landing for his story. Most mangaka don't stick the landing. I put Yu Yu Hakusho on a pedestal, but it doesn't stick the landing either. Off top, the only epic manga I read that stuck the landing was Akira. Akira the movie definitely didn't, but I digress. I don't expect a solid ending when I read manga or watch anime. I only want 2 things from my time with a story. For the journey the characters took to have meaning, and to go all the way if the writer decides to take ambitious risks in storytelling. To me SnK doesn't do that. Everybody they introduced us to died a long time ago and nothing really changed on their planet. The journey messed up 3/4 through the story and the mangaka just kept going, trying to come up with an ending he could be satisfied with. But that ending didn't meet my two criteria for a story. If I cared more, I'd be upset that the timeskip arc couldn't match what was going on beforehand. But its perfectly fine as it was only an 8/10 before. Since the timeskip in many ways invalidates what happened before, I give the anime as a whole 7/10. Mikasa was cool and Ymir got as happy an ending as she could get. Seriously, why does Isayama hate Levi? His life was always horrible and the mangaka can't even let him die peacefully after finally killing Zeke. 1 eye, a messed up leg and a broken body, He can't even clean the way he wants anymore. It's like a reverse Asuka from the last Eva movie. |

I already made a thread about anime improved the ending but the things is I didn't hated the ending. I still think there're some problem after 2nd half of s4p2 (it's mostly me problem) but the biggest problem is manga failed to show Eren character meaningfully (or I'm just blind idk). Conversation between Eren and Armin is shorter and I would say quite a shit still, (and I still stand by it, but only a little bit) I was going back and forward on do I like the ending or not and anime finally put me into, "yea it's good" group. |

theMario3721 said: So why didn't Eren ask for Hange's help? Or Armin's? Or for anyone's help? My only guess is that Isayama didn't want to fall into the "we can conquer destiny" trope. I think the whole thing more-or-less fell apart when you learn that Eren can see the future and affect the past. It adds a paradoxical causality that can only be explained as no characters having free will, which ruins the idea that any choices any of the characters make mattered. Eren was only turned into the Attack Titan because in the future, he was turned into the Attack Titan and he told his dad in the past to turn him into the Attack Titan. That logic is circular and means that he had no choice but to become the Attack Titan. But, up until we learn about this, there were countless ways to explain why Eren's dad turned him into the Attack Titan, and there were countless ways to turn Eren into a war-mongering psychopath, but instead he had to be a "good guy" right at the end, even if we spent ages seeing him otherwise naturally develop insane thought processes. I do agree that the ending was good, and I'll say that all of the other characters and their motivations were fine to good. It really was just Eren, and since he is the main character and the driving force for a lot of the developments in the show, it really fell flat for me. It'd be like if Goku or Luffy was a really crappy character with an unsatisfying arc, whatever else is left to the show just feels empty. |

Roxiena said: I believe that some people were frustrated because they wanted a happy ending. They were upset on how Eren died, and on how things worked were unfair etc etc. But I loved the ending because for me real life itself is unfair, cruel, it can be good too but sometimes things in our lives make no sense. We always want answers from fiction and a happy end, but sometimes that doesn’t happen in real life itself. Defender mentality right there: |

Piromysl said: APolygons2 said: @Piromysl but that's crazy "mainstream" anime fans who eat raw brick for breakfast. It's not really the show's fault. The story doesn't say killing 80% of people is not wrong. In fact, it goes out of it's way to just show how wrong it is multiple times. If people don't see that, it's them being dumbasses. As I said, the "bad ending" is just watchers being disappointed that characters did not acted the way they wanted, which is quite common for people who are unable to feel empathy or relate to others due to never facing any hardship and living in privilege. They wanted Eren to murder everyone, while his true goal was just to make Paradians a heroes, who will stop him and world will spare them. Overall, I think that AOT is a perfect example how people are prone to manipulation and propaganda. Some people unironically see nothing wrong with global genocide just because they have seen one side of the story, became emotionally attached to Eren and hate everyone who wronged him. But Gabi is receiving full hate for being basically just like Eren at the start of the story and killing fan favourite comic relief character. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the ending. As you said, it's conclusive and satisfying. People are just idiots. Honesty, when I saw this outrage two years ago, I was expecting something like aliens invading out of nowhere, Eren turning into a spaceship, Mikasa piloting him and them going together to destroy alien homeworld. Another defender mentality who actually didn’t read any criticism and created one to invalidate any criticism… Like cmon |

Memories of the future went ahead and showed that he never changed his goal, and the ending showed that he never changed at all. he is still and idiot with a single track mind, who went ahead and killed 80% of the population because it helped him reach his goal. but eren is not an emotionless monster, he never was, even in s4p1 where we all believed he was as cold as ice, there were still scenes where him being affected by the damage he caused slipped through. his face after sasha died was probably the biggest slip through we got. besides that, none of the characters in our cast ever agreed with what Eren did. It was more of an understanding that, He did something horrible, but he did it for us, and we can't hate him for it. For levi it wasn't even that, he did not have a single line saying anything positive about what eren did. so I really would like to know where is this: theMario3721 said: he was like "ok maybe he wasn't that bad, he's just stupid...". that you speak of. cause I don't remember him saying anything like that, and I watched the episode today. theMario3721 said: Another reason the ending was bad was the scene where Eren told he killed his mother because otherwise Bertolt would die. That was just funny. Out of nowhere and for no reason at all besides making the reader be like poor Eren he was """"forced""""" to kill his mom :( what? no You remember how in memories of the future Eren stepped in to encourage his father to kill historia's family? That's the gist of what that line is. having access to the past and all that he could do something that would save his mother, but the attack on paradise had to happen. Eren didn't kill his mom. He just didn't do anything to stop it. I'll be it the time travel aspect of aot is basic, and functions on a "if the past is changed, you would have already seen the change in the past" kind of time travel. which is a type of time travel that can easily turn into a paradox if you try to use it too much, but that's the idea. It wasn't a sudden "oh by the way I killed my mom" It was him as someone who has some level of control over time, having regrets about not stopping his mother's death. |

Its just edgy digital “tough” fellas who wanted Eren to stay as cold blooded killer till the end.Unaware of meaning behind it all.I think last movie was perfect.Armin and Eren hugging inside Armin’s dream and conversation around that part shook me the most.And ofc the ending scene with that music |

The reveal that Ymir actually loved King Fritz which makes no sense considering her character's been all about being oppressed and all. The Armin and Eren talk scene. The whole thing felt like they were doing a bad skit especially Eren saying he was just trying to impress Mikasa or whatever. Parodic. Mikasa crying over Eren under the tree. She SHOULD'VE gotten over it at that point but no. The fast forward scenes during the credits showing future mankind at war yet again (presumably with Paradis) which i thought shouldn't have been there. The Eldian-Marley and the Titan power conflicts had already ended with the mcs' story. Showing whatever happens afterwards kinda ruins the sense of conclusion it should've had. And then there's the climax which was even worse. |

Of course some people is gonna hate, why would you want realism in a media where escapism is the goal. The self insert people feel like they got killed and never got the girl. A 1000 years of peace wasn't enough, they wanted paradise until the end of time. Anyways, the show has a fking 9 at the moment, most people seems to be pretty sane. I expected a lower score for the final season, but it's always the butthurt the one that screams the loudest. Great ending for a great show. Considering the most popular anime bad written it's funny, people that say that are just insane. |

TRC_Randy said: The reveal that Ymir actually loved King Fritz which makes no sense considering her character's been all about being oppressed and all. We barely know about Yimir. her arc is more like a "lore" dump. she isn't really a character. it's pretty obvious her love was a Stockholm syndrome kind of situation. It could have been expanded, but it's nowhere near "not making sense". TRC_Randy said: The Armin and Eren talk scene. The whole thing felt like they were doing a bad skit especially Eren saying he was just trying to impress Mikasa or whatever. Parodic. Eren always cared about mikasa in the subtext, he was just too much of a meat head tsundere to say it. There are so many moments where it's so obvious how much he genuinely cares about her from the very start. That was just the moment he was venerable enough to open up his true feelings. TRC_Randy said: Mikasa crying over Eren under the tree. She SHOULD'VE gotten over it at that point but no. REALLY? are you telling me the character that her entire arc, and personality, has been 80% liking eren, should have fully gotten over it in 3 years? This one I don't even understand why you would say it.

Showing whatever happens afterwards kinda ruins the sense of conclusion it should've had. well no, because a big point in aot is conflict always will happen. They needed to show that what eren did never ended war in general. Eren was not a hero, and the ending is extremely necessary in showing that. the message already went over most people's head. without that I wouldn't be surprised if people started claiming aot is pro genocide or something stupid like that. TRC_Randy said: nd then there's the climax which was even worse. what why? It had some plot armour, but other than that, that shit was epic. the music in particular was a love letter to the entire soundtrack, and the animation was consistently amazing. And then there's the climax which was even worse. |

Trying to make the viewer feel sorry for Eren at a point in the story where he has killed 80% of humanity doesn't work. It's obvious he wasn't all evil before the rumbling, but after season 3's ending, Isayama did quite a good job building Eren up to be an antagonist that has "good reasons" but does bad things because he think he's justified. That's good, that's great. Then, right at the ending, Eren starts crying like "ooohhhh i didnt want to do it 😭😭😭 i saw every future but it always ended on war so i thought that killing 80% of humanity was good so i could make you guys the heroes and then have you kill me like get me off of here man i dont want to deal with this anymore im just dumb lmao also sorry for killing you guys 😭😭😭".
Like... what? That's such a bad turn of events at the worst possible time it's just funny. Even worse, the characters act like Eren wasn't all bad he just didn't know what to do. Like he was a tiny bit justified. For Mikasa, this works, she was alredy crazy for him, that's understandable. For Armin? Not so much, but ok, I can make that stretch. Now, for all the rest? Jean? Connie? FUCKING LEVI? Levi quite literally saw Erwin die because of Eren, then saw Hange die because of Eren, and he was like "ok maybe he wasn't that bad, he's just stupid...". I mean, what the fuck?

Eren is actually one character that never even changed.
Eren always was an idiot who happened to get too much power in his hands. He only pretended to be this cold, calculating menace, and he had every single one of us fooled.
Memories of the future went ahead and showed that he never changed his goal, and the ending showed that he never changed at all. he is still and idiot with a single track mind, who went ahead and killed 80% of the population because it helped him reach his goal.
but eren is not an emotionless monster, he never was, even in s4p1 where we all believed he was as cold as ice, there were still scenes where him being affected by the damage he caused slipped through. his face after sasha died was probably the biggest slip through we got.
besides that, none of the characters in our cast ever agreed with what Eren did. It was more of an understanding that, He did something horrible, but he did it for us, and we can't hate him for it.
For levi it wasn't even that, he did not have a single line saying anything positive about what eren did. so I really would like to know where is this:
theMario3721 said:

that you speak of. cause I don't remember him saying anything like that, and I watched the episode today.

what? no
You remember how in memories of the future Eren stepped in to encourage his father to kill historia's family?
That's the gist of what that line is. having access to the past and all that he could do something that would save his mother, but the attack on paradise had to happen. Eren didn't kill his mom.
He just didn't do anything to stop it.
I'll be it the time travel aspect of aot is basic, and functions on a "if the past is changed, you would have already seen the change in the past" kind of time travel. which is a type of time travel that can easily turn into a paradox if you try to use it too much, but that's the idea.
It wasn't a sudden "oh by the way I killed my mom"
It was him as someone who has some level of control over time, having regrets about not stopping his mother's death.

Everybody should read Isayama's interviews about his thoughts on the manga Himeanole. For me it's just so tiresome seeing this discussion about the character of Eren when the man himself already said with plain and clear words what was his thought proccess characterizing him and what he tried to convey. It's a disservice to the community that this text isn't more known. Just search on google "Isayama himeanole interview", there's a translation for it in reddit. I hope this helps to clear some ambiguities about Eren's motivations and true intentions, although this is already beautifully portraited in the anime. |

They made it abundantly more clear in the anime because they didn't have time/page constraints. And some just had a pre-built idea of the end that they wanted to see. I've seen and argued against people who literally thought that the twist of Eren indirectly killing his own mother was bad. They didn't even want that character development/didn't even understand such a simple twist. Thanks for this thread though. I have spent the last two years fighting the manga readers who hated the ending. Seeing so many people love it warms my heart.

@Confused_100 The problem is that you are not thinking. so let me break it down. - why did he do it? to save bertholt that was the goal. There is no reasoning for why the mom had die specifically. so what does that imply? it implies that the titan would either go for bertholt, or would enter the city and end up eating eren's mom. The delima, would be unfinished otherwise. |
