Omg exactly

o7 🏴‍☠

Same for One Piece.

@@MASTERCRAFT938 What are you on about mate? One Piece is never ending.

Honestly saying, I cried after seeing the end of Attack On Titan.

I never watched Attack On Titan, but I can imagine it's a lot like seeing "you're gonna carry that weight" instead of "see you, space cowboy" at the end of Cowboy Bebop.

I thought this animation was very similar to Evangelion. And it is developing the narrative in exactly the opposite political direction I think this animation justifies fascism. So I don't agree with this animation's message. But I enjoyed watching it anyway🤷‍♂️ After ww2, Japan was limited in military power by the United States and became a lot of economic and social experimental sites. monetary policy, fiscal policy, quantitative easing etc.. So Japan served as a leading indicator for many capitalist Western countries. So, the meaning that the attack titan can see the future symbolizes Japan, which acts as an avant-garde for other countries The fact that they are leading the way does not mean that they can see the future, change or decide. That's why Eren said he was stupid at the end In the course of the experiment, Japan's traditional and family values collapsed, and society became depressed. The gloomy atmosphere of Japanese culture in the 1990s and 2000s arose after the collapse of the bubble economy in the 1980s Evangelion and AOT. Both animations are developing narratives based on Japanese society after the collapse of the bubble economy So I thought this was a significant message from Japan to Western society. And I didn't understand why Westerners like this. But the show was fun 🤷‍♀️ I think the meaning of rumbling is the return of state monopoly capitalism. Or national capitalism something like that. And I don't think Western liberal civil society is prepared for such fascism The expansion of capitalism leads to imperialism. And imperialism calls big wars. Reset and start over. So only innocent young people died in ww1 and ww2 🤷 And AOT's narrative justifies that cycle of capitalism End of Evangelion tried to end it. That is the difference between the two animations.

@@user-wj3du2xx1f Actually no Aot don't say that the cycle will restart anew there is a real contradiction to anyone saying that nothing will change it will be just all the same. If you are interested I can give you two details and a major fact that completly changes. AOT doesn’t justifie the cycle. Aot gives an accurate depiction without taking any real stance

@@user-wj3du2xx1f bruh, there is no way any human being thought of that other than you

I didn't think it was that great, but that's only because I just saw the last episode of AoT, Gigguk couldn't really follow that.

@@user-wj3du2xx1f Umm... seriously no. For all its depth and the amazing messages, it has to give you're reading too far into it. Like, if Attack on Titan was the freak'n Bible, you'd rightly be called a false preacher, because not even it is meant to convey so much specificity outside of what each individual word means. Unless you've read some interview with the author or are privy to his views or inspirations in any way, the only the only themes we can be sure of are that of conflict in general, war in general, and the wars and conflict that come from prejudice, bigotry, vengfulness, and the how the feelings of deserving revenge can be wrongly be targeted on generalized demographics & even across generations. As well as how good people can do terrible things, and... well okay there was a lot of stuff, but very little of it ever had to do with the economy, wealth, bourgeoisie family values not regarding military service, or anything like that.

I began watching when I was just 11 - 12 years old. Now, I’m 20. This is the best story I have ever known and no other piece of media has had a greater impact on me. Thank you, Hajime Isayama.

I second this@@x-omnistar-x9602

Same, I remember watching the first episode when I was 12 in 2016

Damn I guess a few of us started aot in 2016😭I remember being 14 only as well starting it in October 2016, my first ever anime and still my favourite , what a journey

@@TJ-eu6gf for me it was 2015

It’s a very odd show in that it was both character driven and plot driven. The plot elements were boiled in so early and it was clear there was a gravity pulling us there on rewatches from the very beginning, yet still so much of the show came from the emotions and struggles of the characters. I think it did a good job of tying its mechanics to the emotions of the characters so they can flow together. I feel like that always what makes a good story since it’s kind what we all want. We don’t just want our existence to mean something but we want our feelings themselves to mean something, for our stories to mean something, for our feelings themselves to shape the world. Any story that creates a device where the feelings of the characters are so deeply entwined with some sort of fantasy mechanics is always going to be impactful

I can get behind that at some point, less in others. Eren's characterization is a frustrating mess for me. Early on it's great. Everything past that made me feel like Isayama didn't know what he wanted Eren to be in his story. I feel like there are some big lessons to learn in scope and planning. It just kinda felt like he didn't like where things went towards the end, and couldn't fully solve it. Which resulted in an ending that really let down a lot of people. Eren's characterization, and the ways that different characters reacted to him (especially given the motivators of theirs that were made known to the audience) really cheapened some major plot points for me. So much tension was taken out of it all by that. I just see a lot of deeper concepts on the table that got shelved because Isayama couldn't or didn't want to go all the way there with it, and so went for the next big twist until he cornered himself a little bit and found himself needing to compromise on what would crop up in the end. They also have a nasty habit I noticed with characters. A lot of the things about them that you're supposed to believe are true of them, are never displayed in the characterization itself. They leave it to the characters around them to react to THAT character, the way the writer wants you to see that character. Another bother is kind of just moving on from tense moral dilemmas. What is something a character would never do in one episode, becomes something they do like its normal the next. And only in a few particular instances with very plot-centered characters is the transition ever explored. They just one day start operating like different people. And there are plot points you can look to for why, but it feels unsatisfying. Again, I think this is a matter of planning your characters. There are a lot of points where I think he changed characterizations just to serve the plot advancements he came up with, at the expense of plot cohesion and character relatability. By the ending, we are nearly Evangelion levels of "what, why, and how?" That's my take anyway. There is a lot about the character writing that worked really well on me before the first big twist, when the plot was more like a normal shonen. As soon as the Code Geass style political suspense plotlines came in, it felt like none of the characters were really fitting their roles anymore and it became hard for me to have a consistent picture of any of them. It became sort of a neverending stream of people saying and doing stuff just to get to the moments Isayama wanted. I all but lost the characters to the plot. And that was when the plot was still adding more characters! My one wish is that he gave fewer characters more time. If anything, most of the mid to late characterization felt rushed and for me didn't do nearly enough to justify itself. He pulled out a lot of very heavy historical, philosophical, and sociopolitical ideas to string these characters up and some of those checks bounced hard! I mean, I enjoyed the ride, but I found the writing to be pretty flawed overall. Ambitious, but lacking the direction to always bring full impact from those ambitions.

@@Alphabunsquad That last part you said is the thing I don't get. We want our existence to mean something. But I struggle to find the meaning in what any of the characters went through by the end. The reality they are left with is abject tragedy, guaranteed to lead to even more. I see no meaning in what went down. In truth, all of the characters had a role to play in the ever spiraling chain of suffering that would inevitably continue after their deaths. At best, all of those feelings took them in a big circle, leaving a world not unlike the one they started with, arguably worse. I just don't know where the solace is in that. As far as AoT is concerned, those feelings ARE meaningless.

​@@differentbutsimilar7893I do think the talent is there however this time around he probably retcon somethings from season one of the manga and at that point he didn't lay enough seeds during the season 1 and to have enough to capitalize on during the second half of season 4 but overall I'd say it's still serves the purpose of having philosophical message

You need to rethink being a writer if you see this shit as inspriring lmao

i cried, i thought i would feel better if i wrote a soundtrack to it to vent my feelings it only made me sadder so i released a video using that soundtrack. I think I finally have accepted eren leaving If u wana see my aot ending soundtrack check the chanel out

I felt your feeling

Oh yeah I 100% resonate with this. Back in second year high school or something I was against watching any form of anime until the point where my friends would not stop harping on at me for weeks till I started watched Attack on Titan. And so I did. Now I have an anime list of over 150 anime and I can’t tell whether to thank them or hate what they’ve pulled me into 😅

This. This. What a ride it was

lmao

I hear you. The music of Attack on Titan is truly one of a kind. It is both epic and emotional, and it perfectly captures the tone and atmosphere of the series. I can't imagine watching the show without it. Hiroyuki Sawano is a genius composer, and his work on Attack on Titan is some of his best. He has created a soundtrack that is both iconic and unforgettable. I also agree that Isayama is a legend. He has created a story that is both complex and compelling, and he has developed characters that we care deeply about. Even though the ending of the show was divisive, I think it's important to remember that Attack on Titan is a masterpiece. It is a series that will be remembered and talked about for many years to come.

Everyone is of course entitled to their own experience, but hearing Connor call this a safe ending after the shitshow that was it's initial unveiling... I like the guy but he does deserve a smack for that. And no it wasn't exclusively because of some unfortunate line choices, a lot of people really rejected this ending. Safe writing doesn't have that effect.

​@@Reshapable To be honest, it kinda is a safe ending, I mean, no one really diess except from Eren, and everyone lives peaceful until war breaks out again centuries later, but yeah it's not exactly "safe" considering how the most important character dies and the hallucigenia still exists, I think the best way to describe the ending is bittersweet and fitting.

​@@kostasspirou1010 Why would killing characters be unsafe? Lots of stories end on characters dying left and right. Heck, all the deaths that *did* happen here were extremely safe ones.

@@lobsterp3821 I mean, killing characters is risky especially when they're fan favorites

@@kostasspirou1010 I see this come up in a lot of series how if nobody dies then there are no stakes. And its just... Incredibly dull to me. Death is to drama what jump scares are to horror. An easy way to illicit a response and that's it. Absolutely nothing about this ending would be improved by more character deaths, and it would be identically safe, because death on its own is meaningless. It wouldn't have been shocking if more characters died, and the world is so fried who would really care? What made it unsafe is that there was no big secret twist, no genius solution, no positive outcome. Just the same terrible conclusion the series had been saying the whole way through: The world is cruel and sometimes beautiful.

I agree. When Armin says 'umi da' he isn't just saying life can also have good things. You see Zeke is very sad, and baseballs make him happy, so Armin is also saying happy is a good thing. Zeke never once thought this in his life so when Zeke said "ooohh wow" that was him actualizing himself as an individual (this is very subtle, most ending haters won't get this except for me and a few intellectuals). Zeke is a monke, and monke are on the ground (not free), trees are above ground (leaf) so they are more free, and birds are above trees (so most free).

I still remember reading the manga in the computer lab with my friends after season 1 ended. We were like wtf is with the titan in the broken wall postcredit scene and had too find out fast. Good times

Same. I first watched it near the end of my high school days, when only Season 1 was out and we've all been waiting for years for Season 2 to come out. I was 19 at the time. I'm 27 now. I'll never forget this story and it's characters. I know, I'm an adult person talking passionately about a Chinese cartoon, but what can I say. I can't help the feelings and the journey of my life for the past 8 years, and the feelings I have for AOT. And I know a lot of people hate AOT ending for obvious reasons; but in my opinion, it's perfect. It matches exactly what was happening within Eren's mind(a bit convoluted, innit), and it's the realest, rawest ending AOT could ever have. It shows exactly what it means to be human.

Ah yes, AoTTG. It had an incredibly steep learning curve but once you get used to the mechanics (it's much easier when you main Levi), it's really quite a good AOT game.

I was the same as you but such a shame I lost that love for this anime because of the terrible final season yet people will deny my opinion and say I'm just a biased hater. This was my fav ever show and it was ruined

At this point I've read too many Mangas, LNs, WNs and watched too many shows to count but AOT was one of my first every manga I've completely read till the end. I've long since (half) given up on watching Anime but came back just for AOT finish

My thoughts exactly. Mappa really went all out for this finale and all the emotions came back when I was watching it lol. It was nice meeting fans along the way, definitely a generational anime.

yeah i was a manga reader as well (i was on the "i loved the ending" side), and it's only now that the anime is finished, i actually feel like the story is finally over!

My first video from Gigguk is literally his "Attack on Titan is incredible"

What an amazing comment! I think the entire team (WIT and Mappa) did such a great job with this series. Isayama my man for building such an awesome series that had highs and lows for sure. I am a big AoT fan and I loved every second of it. It was nice to see other fans come together and enjoy it too!

Aw, I can relate a bit I still remember when I watched AoT in 9 minutes (dubbed in Italian, at the time I didn't speak English)... If I may drop a suggestion since I'm here already, I'd recommend a lot Houseki no Kuni, it came to my mind because the story resembles a bit AoT for the way the story is structured (quite different thematically tho, except for some surprising similarities)

It was inspired by schindler's list

Yeah I also noticed it was a homage kinda thing towards Schindler’s list, thought it was an interesting scene and definitely wasn’t expecting to see it

that was the only part of the episode i teared up a bit

I never tear up on anime ....this shit broke me ....like wtf bro that silence , the black and white , that painful cry from the baby , mother's emotion ....shit teared me up writing truly .....mappa did justice to aot truly.

Having just had my first child last year, I almost had to turn the show off because it was too hard to watch. Pictures of my daughter and wife just kept flashing in my head the whole scene.

Nice i made it 139😂😭

So much wasted parallels between Historia and Ymir

Including Isayama... Such a waste.

Yeah that’s why I don’t like that chapter. They introduced her, gave her so much backstory just to never show her again and she became an irrelevant 3rd person.

She got forgotten by the writer, kinda sad to have a character that important to be treated like that "and now she's the queen of the main nation of the story, get impregnated by a random, spend her time in a cottage farm and we will never talk about her ever again"

@@TheCreCre well, from season 3. I didn’t want to start back over from the very beginning.

I haven't watch AOT until I heard that it ended, I decided to watch the whole thing and it took me 8 days to finish it.

I picked it up in 2022 and dropped it at the beginning of S3 because I really didn't like Eren as a character, I decided to catch up a week ago since it was over, and damn. My favourite scene was definitely the first Levi vs Zeke fight but the ending has a certain weight that no other anime has. Seeing Eren be both a sympathetic villain and the biggest bastard around was probably the most enjoyable experience I've had watching a shonen protag in an anime.

A very smart choice. I like you continued from s3, since s3 really marks an end for the island area and starts a completely new setting. S4 is almost an own anime by itself

That makes sense but it was not so much cleared in anime.

​@@shameelkhan209I think it's pretty clear, it's probably more of us the watchers being overwhelmed with Mikasa really killed Eren and Eren true feelings is shown. Eren talked to Armin before the final battle, ofc he doesn't know why Mikasa is the key.

@@stolid5919 Me too. Before I would partake in AoT's journey, I was conflicted with views regarding anime, since at that time I had the prejudice belief that anime in general were just Japanese-oriented cartoons aimed for pre-mature boys and girls. When I saw several UKposts videos of anime scenes at that time, they picked my interest to see them though. Aot was the first anime I watched in late adolescensce and early adulthood, followed by Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Code Geass. Edit: Plus the fact that at the time of 2015, I was entering college life. And with a bonus, at that time, they aired the spin-off Attack on Titan: Junior High, a comedy series that took a light-heartead approach of the series, especially at a time where both me and the protagonists focused on academic studies. Looking back then, it felt like a nostalgic journey of early adulthood.

@@angelb.823 I also used to thought that Anime is aimed for kids so I didn't bother getting into it until my classmate talked about Tokyo Ghoul and it put some interest in me. I am entering my 8th grade during that time, saw shows like Your Lie in April, Sword Art Online, AoT that my brother recommended me. AoT really sticked to me, the story and animation captured my heart. From then on i saw most media related to AoT and yeah i also watched the Attack on Titan: Junior High during its airing and enjoyed the slice of life theme contrast to the usual violence. Now 8 years later, I am really glad i became a fan of this great series.

@@mew5521 It was imho a perfect representation of the anime fandom in general and their relationship with AoT ... some love it and praise it as a masterpiece (the target audience of this video), others think of it as 'aight' while some don't care or stopped to care during the shows run. It felt like the episode was made out of obligation since it was a big topic in the community (and maybe because Garnt was hyped).

it was close enough though and makes it one of the best stories I experienced. I really was afraid it would be game of thronesd it. but even the "too much of a happy" ending for some chars was okay because the whole series was so fucking grim. if i wanted to change something I would want that Hange didnt die with the hanger where it was a bit of an reversed deus ex machina the tank was leaking because it got shot, but that she died in the true final battle. the way she died though was fucking perfect. 10/10.

@@1995pieter I completely agree with everything you said, Hange's death and the floch thing were my only serious complaints throughout the series and it would've helped with people's plot armor complaints if she just died in the final battle instead. Nothing is perfect in this world but aot still stands at a quality few if any other shows have ever reached.

I mean I feel like the show concluded after season 3 and that was perfect. Then season 4 was a completely different show and it was almost perfect. But the fact that it was a 10/10 through its main reveal and then we got an entire nother 30 episodes exploring the consequences of that reveal I think is pretty spectacular. Just think of how much the show changed after season 3. It’s wild. 😊

@@Alphabunsquad indeed it went from horror to military drama. comepletely different ainime

"It wasn't perfect" says you, don't speak for me thanks.

You were 13 or 14 when aot came out...

@@rjan9719 his birthday is in November or December

I wish I never watched this anime. I really regret it.

I was 13-14 now I’m 24 . Can’t believe it’s over. My god

Literally same bro

And it mirrors an aspect of Mikasa’s relationship with Eren. In fact for 99 percent of the show Eren didn’t treat mikasa well he even went as as far as to insult her and everything she stands for but she still loved him even when he almost never let her feel that she was loved. Because that’s the thing if inconditionnel love exists then Mikasa and Ymir are a great depiction of it

Makes total sense. Altho, describing it as textbook Stockholm syndrome definitely takes some of the magic out of her arch

@@rdf274 Yeah it's different, inconditionnal love is just an incomplete description of the idea presented in Aot, but stockholm syndrom is pure nonsense if you look it up on the internet you'll find that that victims are always manipulated in some ways, it's completly different from Fritz and Ymir's relationship where he's not manipulating her he's just ruling with an iron grasp a salve ignorant of the very concept of freedom

The thing people don’t understand about Ymir is that from the beginning she wanted to be loved. So once she has her titan powers she starts doing things for the Eldian Empire. The King says to Ymir that she’s done great things for Eldia like making roads, making bridges that span mountains and fighting the tribe of Marley. Ymir interprets these praises as love. Then when it’s all over she realizes that the only people who really only loved her were her daughters

@@NostalgiaNetwork This dynamic also mirrors the Eldian Warriors fighting in wars as Honorary Marleyans.

Fantastic anime with a disappointing ending.

Yeah, don’t think anybody’s gonna be talking about that ending for years to come.

The One Piece ending will be talked about for years to come not this garbage 🗣🗣

I think I finally have accepted eren leaving. If u wana see my aot ending soundtrack please give it a chance ukposts.info/have/v-deo/badmppyxgKKBrJs.html

@@LightbulbHD you all haters are definitely talking about it enough though🤣, seems like you are emotionally attached to the ending.

5 years and you call that "growing with it" ? Meh.

considering I am now an adult with a driving license and a job, yeah I'd call it growing with it. Besides what does it matter to you? have a blessed day@@shizukagozen777

Yeah, it's not like you do much growing in five years, especially between 13 and 18...

that is such an L take, I drafted the army, I had opportunities to experience alcohol, weed, etc, sexual relationships, romantical relationships, speak for yourself I suppose. I've certainly had my fair share of experiences which def grew with me.@@santinopaone-hoyland

Im genuinely convinced at this point the people who think aot ending was even close to good are brain dead.

ikr! I'm glad there are people thinking critically

it was flawless, just shut up.

I wish people would realize their desire for a perfect ending is nearly impossible, because everyone has their own idea how a story should end and if it didn't happen then they get unreasonably angry and miss how it is good it is; especially when it's written by one person.

@@brandonacevedo1681 We didn't ask for a perfect ending, we just expected better than "that".

Every story is flawed but that is human nature, therefore perfect ending.

I rediscovered anime because of this show. I grew up with Dragon Ball but after GT ended, I stopped watching anime until AoT

Yeah I also Discovered Anime because of Attack on Titan I started to know about Attack on Titan back in 2017 because of a Channel Names "Lord Knows Anime" they explained the Season 1 in 12-13 videos compiling 2 Episode in one in My native language their narration was so good I got my heart dedicated to it I recommended the Explanation Videos to many of my School Friends they all got liking the narration and Anime too but One day tye channel got deleted and there were no more easy way to understand anime Because of that I started to read subtitles and understanding how to read it and understand the dialogues same was the situation with my friends they also got into reading subtitles and discovering what happened in Season 2 Attack on Titan made our (My Friends too) Native and English Language reading skills better just because we got forced to know the story in any way possible nothing can match it.
