Have it be in monty python style too, Erin is ranting about genocide and just..GIANT FOOT smashes him. Then a Finger points down from heaven and you hear a voice "CUT THIS SHIT OUT."

 

[CheezzyMach]

So basically Isayama is the Japanese JJ Abrams?

I thought that was Hideo Kojima?

 

[I can't imagine]

I thought that was Hideo Kojima?

Nah, Kojima's stories have pretty consistently resolved their mystery box twists. The actual resolutions are frequently nonsensical and logically exceptional, but I have little doubt they're actually what he planned.

 

[Bunny Tracks]

12.) Erin wakes up from this terrible nightmare and realizes he was sleeping in a normal, Modern day school and the last 2 chapters suddenly become a High School Slice of Life Harem Manga.

Edit : Yes I skipped 11, but 11 was so horrible nobody wants to see it.

No, we're not skipping 11:

11) Gabi powers up, becomes an avatar of Ymir and defeats Eren, bringing peace to the world. Or just hatches a fucktarded McGuvyer plan and stops him. Or just stops him for any reason.

You may gouge your eyes out now.

13) It's gonna be like the ending of Breaking Dawn where all of this was just a vision of what would've/could've happened shown to Eren by Ymir after he hugged her. Eren decides not to end the world after that.

13.5) Same as before, but Eren decides to end the world anyways, because he is and has always been a murderous lunatic.

Edit:

See I legit had "Naruto Shows up through a hole in time and space and Talk-no-Jutsus Erin into being a good guy again like he did with Pain."

14) That happens.

15) Light Yagami appears, and kills him with the Death Note.

16) Yugi shows up, and challenges him to a children's card game, and beats him.

 

[Stay safe]

There's two panels I think should be talked about.

You guys remember this panel right after Eren ate the Warhammer Titan?

Spoiler

Eren's expression and the light appearing heavily implies that he saw something in the Warhammer's memories that changed his endgame plans. I remember that for at least a year, it was universally agreed that he saw something huge, and that whatever he saw was the reason for his sudden change in personality. Also, holy shit Mageth looks fucking terrible in that page. He looks like a damn Bill Dauterive titan, and that's not even getting into that bizarre tilt his head is doing.

So evidently Isayama completely changed his fucking mind on a huge plot development and hoped no one would notice.

The second is this brief glimpse of Fez Boy we see when Eren enters Pathslands and sees flashes of his memories, as well as that of Grisha, Kruger, and Frieda.

Spoiler

There's three things of note. The first is Eren's arm, it's not shaded like the clothes we him wearing in 123, it's shaded like his Big boss outfit. As terrible an artist as Isayama is, the next two points lead me to believe this is not an error. Meaning that this is a memory of a scene we haven't seen yet. The second is that Fez Boy seems shocked about something, and the way Eren is placing a hand on his shoulder in a reassuring manner implies that he is entrusting him with something important. the third is that this memory is placed with ones that we know for a fact are very important to whoever the memory belonged to. Besides the ones that are just simple images of people he cherishes, we have veyr important scenes like when Grisha saw the ocean, when Kruger watched his family be burned alive, and Eren's old life before Wall Maria fell.

My theory is that the memory is Eren telling him about the Rumbling, and telling him to gather as many Eldians and non-Eldians who don't hate them (assuming any of those even exist) and hide in some place he pulled out of his ass that's safe from the Rumbling for some bullshit reason that won't make any sense. The PSA Eren made might've been his signal to Fez Boy to gather everyone and hide, since if every Eldian starts saying the Rumbling is happening at once, even the most hardcore racists will have to believe them.

I'm probably wrong about what's going on in that scene, but I can't really think of any other reason to put that memory there.

 

[Honka Honka Burning Love]

16) Yugi shows up, and challenges him to a children's card game, and beats him.

As someone who likes Yugioh..

That would be awesome, but would be more awesome if it were Jack Atlas. Because Jack Altas is manly enough to be Historia's baby daddy..and Jack Atlas is also badass enough to absorb the power of the titans into a card to make a new Ace Monster.

You really can't take anything from his art. I remember there was this huge chapter with major inconsistencies like when Gabi shot him and there were all these theories and it turns out lol nope, Isayama just rushed it out at the last second.

That's so fucking idiotic with the Warhammer titan, you'd expect this huge revelation but instead it's just another thing forgotten and left behind. Like so much in this book.

There are so many fucking inconsistencies in the series that I'm seriously considering typing all (or at least, most) of them up, and posting them to the OP. Only problem is that would take forever, and the list would be bigger than Eren's hellbeast form, (does it actually have a name yet?), and I really, really don't have the time for it. I'm probably just gonna jot down the most important ones, and along with some of the other stupid miscellaneous shit, but even that would be a huge pain in the ass.

The one issue is that's been bothering me the most though, besides you know, the world-building wreckage, and genocide thing, is that Mikasa got drunk even though Isayama previously stated that Ackermans specifically cannot get drunk. I'd be willing to overlook this if it's because Mikasa is part Asian, and from what I've heard, some Asians don't process alcohol well, and that just cancels out the Ackerman stuff, but unless he comes explicitly states the reason, I'm just assuming he forgot what he himself actually wrote/said. You know, like he always does.

Then again, the question was just specifically if Levi could get drunk, and as we all know, Levi can do basically anything at this point. Except, of course, learn from his mistakes instead of just repeating them over, and over again.

And yes, I know this is a stupid, trivial thing to harp on, but that's the problem with it. Among all these huge plot holes, inconsistencies, and asspulls, there's these tiny, non-important mistakes that just pile up, and cause further huge problems down the line. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Mikasa getting drunk causes huge problems, I'm just saying that all these small, overlooked details add up in the long run, and make the already shitty writing even shittier.

There's honestly no point to doing so. Isayama constructed so many mystery boxes his bad art was taken to contain 'hints' and he just went with it, basically getting so bad that he finally had to admit he just rushed it out and there was no weird alternate timeline or anything. So I trust nothing about his art or foreshadowing. I think Eren's form is just the Founding Titan, or just God.

Even if you do catalog them, there's really no point. Attack on Titan is not an organic story. It no longer follows normal or any literary conventions. Anything the author wants simply happens. So any inconsistency is rendered moot, because more than likely Isayama couldn't find a way to make the plot go the way he wanted to so he abandoned them. I mean, Annie is the biggest victim of this. She was put in stone as a literal mystery box. The problem becomes that there was no longer any point in doing so. Annie freezing had the same effect if she were just dead. She's going to Deus Ex a God and Wall Titans? She could barely fucking beat harpoons.

So, I'll do a thing where I break it down narrative wise:

Asian's don't process alcohol well because rice wine's max alcohol content is like 25%. Meanwhile you had Europeans drinking fucking gasoline and shit. Europeans naturally selected to better tolerate alcohol than Asians, but since this is a fictional universe that doesn't matter.

Oh, I completely forgot another possibility because it never mattered: Armin activates the Colossal Titan and him and Eren have a Gigantic Kaiju battle. It's so fucking stupid that has to be what is going to happen. I stil think Armin 100% loses except Isayama just does whatever the fuck he wants. But lol if they have a battle and Eren just slays Armin and eats him.

I'd laugh.

I know there's really no point, but I still think it would be a good idea to keep track of this shit. Even if it's just for shits and giggles at this point. Lord knows it would've helped Isayama out a ton if he did that.

On that note, all authors should make reference sheets for characters, and storylines, and fucking update them frequently. It will help you out so fucking much. I can't stress that enough. Fucking do it. You'll be glad you did.

Annie is the biggest victim of this. She was put in stone as a literal mystery box. The problem becomes that there was no longer any point in doing so. Annie freezing had the same effect if she were just dead. She's going to Deus Ex a God and Wall Titans? She could barely fucking beat harpoons.

He really just should've fucking killed her off. Like, what can she even do now? Use the PATHs system, and stop all this? I don't fucking know anymore, and at this point, it does not matter.

So, I'll do a thing where I break it down narrative wise:

Asian's don't process alcohol well because rice wine's max alcohol content is like 25%. Meanwhile you had Europeans drinking fucking gasoline and shit. Europeans naturally selected to better tolerate alcohol than Asians, but since this is a fictional universe that doesn't matter.

Oh hey, you learn something new everyday. Forgive me, I keep trying to apply real world logic in a series of time-travel, and giant humanoid Kaiju.

Oh, I completely forgot another possibility because it never mattered: Armin activates the Colossal Titan and him and Eren have a Gigantic Kaiju battle. It's so fucking stupid that has to be what is going to happen. I still think Armin 100% loses except Isayama just does whatever the fuck he wants. But lol if they have a battle and Eren just slays Armin and eats him.

I'd laugh.

Seriously, what the fuck can Armin even hope to do at this point? Eren is literally seven times taller than him, and made out of fucking bone. Not to mention his absurd healing factor, and that he can possibly still harden. Not to mention all the other Rumbling titans running around. I guess it's possible for Armin, or Annie if she wakes her ass up, to cause them swarm him, or something, but I'm doubtful that would actually happen/work.

I mentioned nukes earlier, because 1) I was trying use real life logic in this mindfuck of a series, and 2) that's the only way I can see them actually taking Eren out at this point. Anything else would feel like a cop-out, and an asspull. Which is to be expected at this point, but still.

If he actually eats Armin, I'm gonna fucking scream. Not because I'll be sad, or anything, but because of how utterly hilarious that would be. Also because it'd be pretty funny to see all the Eren stans tripping over themselves to justify it. Though they have been pretty quiet after their precious bebe boi said he wanted to commit genocide. It's rather nice, actually.

 

[Cryogonal]

I bet the dad king who fucked everything up will come back through paths to whine at Erin.

 

[Secret Asshole]

I bet the dad king who fucked everything up will come back through paths to whine at Erin.

That'd be funny, but I think King Cuck's mind just got eaten by Eren. Which is the only good part of this arc. Also, King Cuck's reason for peace was fucktarded.

"Oh yeah, I can totally end this living hell anytime I want because I'm basically a God and nothing can come close to stopping me."

"Why do you let these people suffer then?"

"They deserve it."

"What? They're starving, getting eaten by monsters you erased their memories from so they don't even know what they are, you're causing untold misery. If you think they all deserve to die, why not just kill them all in their sleep?"

"Oh, because I want them to peacefully fade away in pain and suffering."

"...How is your will any amount of powerful again?"

Reminder: Isayama implies that this was a good person.

I know there's really no point, but I still think it would be a good idea to keep track of this shit. Even if it's just for shits and giggles at this point. Lord knows it would've helped Isayama out a ton if he did that.

It's rather nice, actually.

Well, that's why authors have post-it notes and white boards. Lord knows I do it, at least electronically.

Author's friends are post-it notes. Also software that keeps notes on each and every chapter. Reference sheets are really good to start, but you need notation and summary for every chapter, what happened and what issues are ongoing. And things you need to resolve.

Nothing. There's no point to Annie right now. Annie is also a lot smaller than most of the other titans.

Well, I think that's his Titan 'being built' but even so, I have no idea. Armin has no battle experience as a Titan, the Colossal Titan is ungainly as fuck and all the wall titans can simply swarm him and stamp on him. Unless Eren goes, "No, we will duel for honor". Which again, hilarious.

Nukes are a complete asspull, these guys have fucking air ships. Not to mention they would have just nuked Paradis anyway, they're perfectly fine with genocide. Pretty much anything is an ass-pull at this point.

I hope he goes that way, I seriously fucking do. Because that would just be so fucking hilarious and result in a complete collapse of the manga and its audience it'd be beautiful to observe.

 

[Bunny Tracks]

Spoiler: someone finally did it

 

[Bunny Tracks]

Holy shit, sorry to double-post, but I just remembered something.

Remember way back like thirty-ish chapters ago where it was revealed that being a Titan-Shifter also automatically kills you like thirteen years after you become one? What if that's how Isayama plans on ending this? Eren just keels over because his Titan-Cancer finally takes him out. I think the math matches up pretty well. Currently Eren is, to our knowledge, twenty years old, which means he should be succumbing to his Titan-Cancer soon. Remember, he became one when he was eight, because that's when he ate his dad. It's been about twelve years in-series which means he doesn't have a lot of time left. I don't think we know the actual date and time it currently is right now in the series, but Eren might actually die if it's anywhere past the thirteen year anniversary of when he first became a Titan-Shifter.

Don't get me wrong; I'm highly doubtful Isayama will end it like this, because I'm pretty sure like with all things in his series, he forgot about it. Lord knows I certainly did. If it does end like this, I can't say I'll be too mad about it. Yeah, the thing about Titan-Shifters only having thirteen years to live was an asspull when it was first introduced, and it's still really dumb, and it would be a cop-out at this point. However, now it's at least a solution that has had prior mentioning in the series, and if it does come up again, it won't show right the fuck out of nowhere like the Time-Transcendence bullshit did.

That is actually the most hilarious outcome I could think of. Like that's even funnier than Eren eating Armin.

I wouldn't be mad. I would laugh so fucking hard. All of Eren's 'JUST AS PLANNED', all of his time-travel mind reading, his head intentionally getting fucking blown off so Zeke could catch it because Isayama established baseball, amounts to fuck all because ricky Hitler couldn't keep a fucking day planner correctly.

"Hahaha, I'M GOING TO GENOICDE THE WORLD"

"OH NO WHAT WILL WE DO!?!"

*Eren, in God form, grasps his chest and keels over. All the Colossal Titans Die*

"Well Marley, wasn't that a pickle! We are darn sure lucky he had that fake timer on his body just randomly exploded. We'll call it square, right? ....right guys...."

*Genocide proceeds, in opposite direction* (This wouldn't happen, but it obviously should)

It'd be the ultimate fucking anti-climax. I mean, its so beautiful. Its like poetry. You have this ultimate tension building moment, where this unstoppable God is going to trounce the world, and he just fucking dies because your arbitrary time limit you set up because you're a terrible author goes off. Holy shit, I mean its so fucking beautiful. I didn't even think of something so fucking idiotic. That's some next level story sodomy right there. We've been thinking about hilariously bad suggestions we forgot about just the really bad ones.

Lets be honest, the Titan Time Limit 'THIS STORY IS DARK AND SAD. DID I TELL ITS GOING TO BE DARK AND SAD? PLEASE COMMIT SELF HARM, THE DEMONS ASK FOR IT'. I mean, its basically screaming at you that the story is going to be sad and no matter the outcome Eren's going to die. Its an idiotic concept, and you shouldn't need to smash your audience in the face with a hammer that you're going to fucking murk your protagonist no matter what in a story where anyone is fair game and dies fucking horribly.

This only works in stories where there's a balance of light and dark, where the waters are muddy enough that either way is possible (See 'Edge of Tomorrow' where the protagonists lose their ability to resurrect themselves. The story has both elements, so you are unsure if one, or either will actually survive until the end. It could have went all three ways and still worked in context.. Attack on Titan is edgy-boi's first manga, so no shit there wasn't going to be a way out for Eren. You have the comic relief getting sniped by a 12 year old Mary Sue simply because the author felt he needed to kill a main character and he hated potato girl so much he probably regretted not having her viciously torn apart by a Titan. And then proceeded to have her family piss on her grave. I mean, that's the author we're talking about here and the story he's writing. Once you introduce that limit, the implication is 99.995% that its a hard limit and you're going to have an unhappy ending. In a story that doesn't need it. These devices are typically used to introduce tension. In this story, the device has the opposite effect, where it effectively neuters any tension, because Eren is going to die no matter how good of an ending AoT gets. If he has kids, he'll never see them grow old. If he falls in love, he'll just drop dead. He'll never see his nation prosper. Like, its a pointless device in this story.

He's telegraphing 'sad end' or 'bad end' in a story where you don't need it. Where you already know that the author isn't going easy on anyone. The only point in introducing that limit was kicking your audience in the balls knowing that there was no happy end. The problem is, like most things in AoT, this was only used to kick its reader in the balls. It had no other effect.

While I do appreciate the absolute, utter fucking hilarity of this ending, you forgot one thing about Titan AIDs. You don't get Titan AIDs until you FIRST transform into your respective Titan Shifter. As long as you never transform into one of the 9 shifters, you never get the Titan AIDs. (Yes, I realize this is fucking stupid because you have to transform into a tita...look it doesn't make any sense. It just doesn't). So while Eren may have become a non-sentient Titan at 8, he never first transformed until he was in the Survey Corps. Not even, I think its been like....maybe 9 or 10 years, if that? Maybe even less. Who knows. The point is, you don't get 'magic Titan AIDs' until you transform. So Armin technically could live until his 70s as long as he never activates the Colossal Titan. So if Isayama panics and slams the 'TITAN AIDS NOAW' button, it still doesn't work with what he previously established. He can retcon it all he wants, but its an obvious panic button and a hilarious one at that.

So while yes, it has been established, Isayama will pull it out of his ass that Eren ate too many Titans and got too many Titan Trans-fats and it clogged his arteries and he died of a Titan heart attack before his time (our precious little Hitler), it still doesn't fit what he previously contextualized in the story.

I mean, I just want it to happen because I mean, its like....beautiful. Its so shitty, so utterly farcical and reduces the entirety of the story before it to pointlessness....like...I want it now. Eren just has to drop dead with no conflict. And the plot being completely resolved with no dramatic tension, pay-off or conflict.

That ending is so horribly beautiful, it encapsulates the entire fucking terrible nature of this narrative. It is the perfect ending, it really, actually is. In a story that has had no protagonist, no tension, no drama, false and artificial conflict for countless chapters....it ends...with no protagonist, no tension, no drama and false and artificial conflict. My God. It has to end this way.

I think Secret Asshole might have had a prolapse from that realization.

Fucking hell, I know I about did! I was just lying on the couch when suddenly I remembered that Titan-Cancer existed, and the realization hit me so hard I almost fell off the damn thing. I'm a little bummed out that it's probably not gonna happen due to the timing being off, but a good chunk of me thinks that Isayama is gonna get the math wrong himself, and just do it anyways.

I think the best part is that vast majority of the fandom has fucking forgotten about it too, and if it actually does happen the reaction is go to be amazing.

Eren is currently 19 in the manga. He received the attack and founding titan at 10 years old. So he currently has four more years before he dies of the curse of Ymir. It's Zeke that's on his last year.

 

[Secret Asshole]

I think Secret Asshole might have had a prolapse from that realization.

Its just so fucking perfect, I mean, its so glorious in its incompetence. Its like the light of the shitty writing God bathed you in all his glory. Its like a circular arc, except instead of being good, its fucking terrible. It all comes back to the beginning, a circle of trash.

Fucking hell, I know I about did! I was just lying on the couch when suddenly I remembered that Titan-Cancer existed, and the realization hit me so hard I almost fell off the damn thing. I'm a little bummed out that it's probably not gonna happen due to the timing being off, but a good chunk of me thinks that Isayama is gonna get the math wrong himself, and just do it anyways.

I think the best part is that vast majority of the fandom has fucking forgotten about it too, and if it actually does happen the reaction is go to be amazing.

I really wish it would be the case. Sadly, I don't think it will. Its too beautiful for this world.

Eren is currently 19 in the manga. He received the attack and founding titan at 10 years old. So he currently has four more years before he dies of the curse of Ymir. It's Zeke that's on his last year.

Yeah, this as well. Like I said, Titan AIDs starts when you first transform, so he probably has more than that. But again, Isayama could always go, 'The more Titan shifters you eat, the shorter your life, so Eren has too many Titans so his lifespan is like 2 days now'. Again, Isayama does whatever he wants to this story with no real contextualization, evidence or logic. If he wants it to happen, it just does.
