Faithful adaption because I want to see a live action version of Eren's incel meltdown.

If anything, they’ll give Eren an actual motivation that hopefully isn’t completely moronic.

No, fuck that. I want them to give Eren an even stupider motivation.

I want him to genocide the entire world because a Marleyian kid beat him in Uno, or something. I want a motivation so stupid it makes his incel one look completely rational.

Double-posting again, but the main trailer for the final part dropped. Lmao, they spoiled the fact that Eren gets 360° no-scoped by Gabi, and even included the stupid baseball shit.

On one hand, we got Titan shifter fights. On the other hand, Paths and all the other shit that came with it.

Double-posting, but Part 2 is listed to only be twelve episodes long.

That movie rumor is starting to look a little more possible.

Either they condensed everything or they're going for a movie. There's a LOT of shit to cut, but they might want to try to ride the train out for as long as possible.

Hahaha, Jesus. All of the PATHs shit. It also looks like they're going to keep Eren killing his mom because we get flashbacks to that scene briefly. They did absolutely no fucking editing work on this piece of shit, good God. Its all going to be trash.

Knowing how he also deviated from his plan for Sasha, probably.

He only deviated from Sasha, because Sasha was supposed to be killed and ripped apart by the small titan pre-timeskip. The thing made a female editor cry, so he delayed Sasha's death until post-timeskip. He fucking HATES HATES HATES Sasha. To the point where her own family basically just fucking cucks her.

What's so bad about Potato Girl?

And yet, some people are still sperging that there's going to be an anime original ending.

Their "proof" is that Mikasa's scarf looks different in that one shot, and how Eren waking up is different than how it is in the manga even though that's just the anime matching how it was the scene went in episode one.

An original ending could still happen, but it's very doubtful, and it's definitely not gonna be the 100% Chadren genocide the Erenfags want it to be. If anything, the time-loop route is the one they would take because it's already there, and shit.

What's so bad about Potato Girl?

I think he intended her to just be a gag character and got annoyed when people got attached to her enough to cry about her death and temporarily prevent him from killing her off.

By the time Yams got so fucking tired with his series, and the industry in general, he probably just wanted to lash out at everyone, and chose Sasha as his target because he wanted to kill her anyway, and while beloved, she didn't carry the series like Levi does.

It would hurt, but not enough to make people stop reading.

Wouldn't a time loop just piss people off? I remember way back in the day that there was a theory that the whole series was the dream a young Eren was having and woke up from back in Chapter 1.

I think the best ending would be that Eren enacts the Rumbling but in the process goes completely feral and loses any and all humanity left in him as he goes straight up mindless beast. No incel speech, he's completely animal monster beast in the final battle and gets put down. But not before he does enough carnage that the rest of the world is so utterly broken that the Eldians are actually able to broker a peace.

I disagree.

I think the best ending would be the Rumbling causing so much environmental damage that even if Eren did wipe out all life outside the Walls, Paradis would still be doomed because of all the adverse weather effects. Like the smoke, and ash blocks out the sun, and causes an ice age, or something.

Hell, to make it even worse, have it so that Paradis could've been saved if he hadn't destroyed all the modern tech, and shit outside of it by flattening it all. Have him be stuck in PATHs forever and be forced to watch as every last trace of humanity is wiped because of his bloodthirsty stupidity.

Is Eren really just a commentary over how exceptional autistic people can be? I mean, Chris was the prequel, sure, but is this the "Endgame" for how potentially world ending autism is?

My idea is simpler and less messy, outside leaving a lot of the stuff with PATHS ambiguous.

Eren going full feral animal mode with the Rumbling lets the writers have their cake and eat it too: Eren carries out his genocide but is irrevocably stripped of his humanity and mind and it plays out as Eren effectively, to use a phrase, fucks around with forces beyond his imagination and finding out that you can't just activate a genocide without paying the price and us getting Eren having his pathetic moment as his mind and human intellect is wholesale stripped from him and he becomes a mindless titan with zero way of undoing what he did to himself.

Which lets the others stop him with no fuss or muss and gives the Eldians a heroic moment where they stop the genocide and win the respect of what's left of human civilization and ultimately peace, as killing Eren kills the Titan power everywhere.

I kind of like them when they're done well. I know the Dark Tower ending gets shit on a LOT, but I honestly thought it was really amazing and went with the themes of the work. And that, this time, what we're witnessing is the beginning of the end of the cycle. As long as you give people hope, that's the important thing.

Though, you're never going to top the badass: ""The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed."

I've talked how to preserve the story about 10,000 times. I don't think it is salvagable post-timeskip. Once you have that tonal whiplash and go all Game of Thrones with nothing but Eren driving the plot, you've already crashed and burned. Its too difficult because all your readers wanted was a horror story and you've abandoned that and crammed a ton of exposition into a short period of time. So you've already lost them. The readers who wanted answers now have them and it resembles very little of what came before, so you basically lose them. And people who want alt-fiction aren't going to hop in mid horse. So its basically lose-lose. The only way he could have salvaged it was to just go full on insane batshit crazy, amp it up to 11.

But he didn't. He just kept stringing people along until his publishers let him end it, and that's what he did. Literally the only thing that saved AoT was people shipping the characters.

Is Eren really just a commentary over how exceptional autistic people can be? I mean, Chris was the prequel, sure, but is this the "Endgame" for how potentially world ending autism is?

No. The thing with Eren, is that (I've mentioned this a fuckton of times), everything after the timeskip relies on him to move the plot forward. So the things that Eren does HAVE to work, no matter how retarded, because if it doesn't, well, Isayama has literally no one else driving the plot and everything stagnates. That's the problem with Eren and why everyone thought he had a plan, when in reality there was no plan, there was just the illusion of one to keep the story moving forward. That's why Eren is all fucking cool and edgelord when the plot needs him to advance it. However, once his plan goes off, he becomes terminally fucking incompetent and everything goes wrong.

That's why there's this massive tonal shift from him being cool edgelord to "JUST AS KEIKU" to "Welp, I guess I'll just die". Its because Eren is no longer needed to drive the story forward, so Isayama can just dispose of him. Its got nothing to do with autisim or incels (though it turns out that way, albeit unintentionally). It is just incredibly bad writing. There are no characters post time-skip, there are just devices. And Eren is a device. He can make insane shit that makes no sense happen and then just completely fail in hilarious fashion where he kills his own mom and gets family zoned.

I don't even look at Eren as a character anymore. He's actually just a plot device disguised as one. Because nothing in the last act makes any fucking sense whatsoever. Its just Isayama getting the story over with.

The best ending would be Erin using the power of Paths to summon Fat Geralt to Punch the shit out Yimir after the pigs escape so the mob catches up to her, rapes her and slits her throat so the series doesn't happen.

 

[Trashfire Garbagefuck]

Unless the movie rumor is true the rumbling and the final fight on Eren's back are probably gonna be pure CGI. Not looking forward to that.

Also you should all watch Char's Counter Attack, seriously, it's so much better than this ending and the parallels are blatant if you've seen both, same for the original series and Zeta (a group literally called the titans killed the MC's mom lol) but CCA in particular for the final season.

I actually got spoiled on the end of Hathaway's Flash (book version) and it made me think of this thread's response to Eren. When I posted about it before I only talked about Char Amuro and Kamille, but Eren has a lot of Hathaway in him too. Both the movie version and the Beltorchika's Children version Tomino wrote after. There's a manga adaption of that if you're curious, and that's the continuity Hathaway's Flash is in, no clue on the movie version of that but so far he's already an autistic terrorist who gets civilians killed and doesn't understand women.

Well, it seems every year there's that big shonen show of the year/season. Attack on Titan, Sword Art Online, My Hero Academia, you know the ones. It's all trends pretty much.

It also came out when the whole zombie craze was in full swing. I think that if it came out at a time when that wasn't happening it wouldn't gotten nearly as popular as it did.

I forgot about The Walking Dead. And Tokyo Ghoul.

And The Last of Us, DayZ, Rust, 7 Days to Die, Warm Bodies, World War Z, Dead Space (not specifically zombies, but close enough), Dying Light, Contagion (the video game, not the movie), Train to Busan, etc.

My point is that AoT came out during the perfect time for it to become insanely popular. If it had been any other time, it would've still gotten attention, but it wouldn't have skyrocketed into popularity like it has.
