![]() I also knew he was putting on an act with Armin and Mikasa around the table, even though I think he went too far with them. I knew that he was lying to Zeke, because Eren would never regret being born. Whatever he saw in the titan’s memories had changed him and led him down a path of destruction. ![]() When the post-Marley arc chapters dropped, I instantly knew something was wrong with him. So here is my main issue: Eren doesn’t deserve an antihero’s ending. ![]() Either way, we have confirmation that Eren had some romantic feelings for her. This moment is kind of comedic, and Armin calls him pathetic. He also tells Armin that actually, he does love Mikasa, and the thought of her being with another man after he’s dead devastates him. As we know, Dina ends up eating Eren’s mum, Carla, and her traumatic death cements Eren’s vengeful hatred of the titans. Secondly, he told Dina’s titan not to eat Bertholt, because Bertholt needed to live, and instead redirected the titan towards his own house. That’s so objectively problematic that I don’t need to discuss it. He drops some bombshells: Ymir acted out her role as the founder for 2000 years because she loved the man who enslaved, imprisoned and raped her. He admits that he doesn’t actually want to die, but he knows he’ll never be forgiven for the rumbling. He did all this so the world would see his friends as heroes. ![]() He didn’t know how it was all to conclude, but he knew that Mikasa was going to play a key role in ending the battle. The future he saw in the paths showed him what he was going to do and what had to take place. That they never properly get to visit these places in real life is part of the tragedy.Īnyway, it’s revealed that Eren was only playing the villain all along. It’s hard to know if it’s really in front of them, or all an illusion. They get to see the things that Armin kept telling Eren about, but it’s all being shown to them through this un-world, the Paths. They didn’t have proper childhoods, and their teenage years were filled with death and struggle, and as adults they kept missing each other, as Eren goes off to do his own mission and leaves Armin behind. It reminds me of what was lost between them. In the final phase of the talk, they are their current iterations: Armin with short hair and army gear Eren man-bunned and showing the marks of a titan transformation. As they talk, they age: when the discussion stars they are children. Through this discussion, they journey through time and space, visiting all the places Armin wanted to see. The chapter opens with Eren and Armin talking. Most of my issue stems from Eren’s reasoning. Unfortunately I don’t think 139 matched 138’s greatness. I only expected Eren to play a small role. I don’t follow fan theories so I don’t know if this was a consensus idea among the fandom, but I thought the final chapter would feature Ymir’s conclusion, her final thoughts and reasoning for helping the alliance. I feel like all key characters received their final development, they saw the best versions of themselves. Chapter 138 is one of my favourite of the whole series. Unlike the Jaegerists, I never saw Eren as some cool chad character, and I was happy to see the final battle turn in favour of the Eldian alliance. I’ll preface this by saying I enjoyed this final arc. Anyway, I have some thoughts about the final chapter of Attack on Titan. I’m not very good at writing analysis threads and I admire people who can do them so effortlessly. I don’t think I have loads to say, but it’s easier for me to blog these things than do threads. I’m writing this here because I don’t know how long a twitter thread might be.
