Well not the first king but the one ymir loved

I have a slightly different take. In episode 1 humanity received a message from Ymir, specifically from Ymir 2,000 years ago. Not only the visions to Eren which were from him gaining his Titan Memories (all the way back to 2,000 years ago), but the Titans breaching the wall was also her legacy/message. It was a sad way of saying what happens now is because of something that happened 2,000 years ago, and it's evocative of oppression. And in episode 80, it is Eren who sends a message to Ymir - that she is free. And this is called a message to 2,000 years ago because it is a reply to what happened that day 2,000 years ago -- to the girl who in a way is still living in that day. Message to Eren from Ymir. Message to Ymir from Eren. It's not the same message, but two different messages. The 80 episodes between have been Eren working up the power and fighting to be able to reply to her.

We can also say that because Ymir was the first Attack titan, she saw what Eren will do to her ("free her"), and that's why she chose him. And while we are at it, she saw Eren's desire for freedom (when he had the nightmare he already wanted to become a member of the survey corp) so she was like: I give you your freedom, to you, 2000 years later (Ymir's perspective) so I can get me my freedom, from you, 2000 years ago (again, her time).

In short, he means that the lore runs so deep that the anime is not appreciated at its value ; even though it is very much loved, there are many aspects of the anime not talked about / not valued which is why it could be considered underrated

Something I like to theorize is that Historia's character is basically a mirror of Ymir, like she had another life. First is obviously the parallel the show makes directly in that Historia is told by her sister to act more like Christa/Ymir in the story book. Even takes on that name, her love interest is called Ymir, hell she looks like Ymir etc etc. Based on what we know of Ymir they are very similar: -Desired to make others happy over their own well being and self worth. -had a demanding family/authority figures that basically treated her like dirt. -under that veneer her true self is way more actionable and selfish. ---> this leads me to think of Historia's change-- especially in the episode where she judo flips her father. She was always told what to do to this point. And now told to become a titan and eat Erin so she can be taken over as the new king, she finally makes her own choice, which she chooses to defy her king's order and get revenge. She even says she's humanities number one enemy. Worst girl in the world. It was in the heat of the moment but that kinda mirrors Ymir's furry we see now... Who now is very much humanities number one enemy as she's taking revenge on the whole world and allowing Erin to trample it. There are key differences in their character though. Mainly I think it comes down to what they chose to be a slave too. Ymir is obviously tied to stolkhome syndrome and her desire to be loved. But that love was never truly returned. Historia had great friends and a love interest that actually cared about her. Which in turn essentially allowed her to defy her father/king and take over as the new ruler, giving her actionable power and authority. (Though there's also the idea that she's still chained down because now as a lesbian, maybe bi lady she's forced to have a baby and definitely doesn't look super happy about her situation.)

I didn't realize Ymir was a furry.

I don't know if Ymir "chose" to go back to Fritz... As much as it demonstrates how she couldn't go anywhere else. Her experience of "freedom" before slavery was poverty. Her quick "freedom" after slavery only reinforced that warped perspective. Sure, she became the founding titan and the most powerful being ever to walk the earth but mentally she was still a prisoner. Fritz didn't have a crown on his head until she came back and he commanded her to fight in his war. She was always powerless. First a starving child, then a slave, then a tool forced to be a monster at her master's command, then his tool for sexual satisfaction, then, even in death, a tool to make more weapons for the man who owned and raped her. And how could she voice her own opinions with her tongue cut out? She couldn't defend herself when all the fingers were pointed at her. Her tongue would have grown back after she became a Titan but the damage was done. She believed she couldn't speak up. I don't think she was "kind" or a "people pleaser" or "lady like". I think she couldn't be anything but what she was told to be. She was a slave. It's tragic. Fritz was the only monster. He was a power hungry, manipulative, evil man. He was the one who raided Ymir's village and enslaved her. He was the one who made her fight in his stupid wars once she became a Titan. He was the one who raped her because there is no way Ymir could have given real consent. And even to their daughters, he was the one who made them eat her corps. No way the girls would have decided to cannibalize their mother. He is the one who commanded them to continue fighting and cannibalizing and making more Titans. The world called the eldian's devils and monsters but they were all slaves. They didn't ask for any of it. And then a new king Fitz one day felt bad and decided he was going to stop fighting but the damage was done and he didn't free the children of Ymir. He just trapped them in a wall. Wiped their memories and let them take the blame for the generations of selfish rule by him and his ancestors. The world would never be kind to the children of Ymir.

Ymir didnt just have stockholm syndrome. Ymir had her voice stolen, she was conditioned to seek love from her captors, she was sexually groomed, and she committed atrocities on Fritz behalf which likely caused a sort of "sunk cost fallacy" to take effect where she has gone too far to change her mind. Her form in the paths represents her mental age. She has an extraordinary case of arrested development. Also given that she has all the titan powers that means that she can see the future and/or past simultaneously.

Is it not that Eren is sending himself the message we see in the first episode, and Ymir is essentially the messenger given that he had not yet attained Titan powers, but she could still find him via the Coordinate?

I am intrigued by the exact wording of the title. As if someone sent a message to themself over a span of 2000 years, and I think I know what it might be. So it has been revealed that the attack titan can obtain memories from their future inheritors. So Eren has some kind of control over every Attack Titan user before him. Knowing this you can interpret the thing that has been sent "to you, 2000 years from now" as the founding titan's power. And during episode 80, Ymir is the one to give it to Eren from himself, 2000 years ago

So that means, when Eren said that "it was you who guided me" in Path, at that moment Yimir sent Eren's memories back to the 10 yr old Eren who was sleeping under a tree which brings us back to the first ep.

Finally a good explanation!

Such a masterpiece

It’s nice that 1 and 80 come around like 180 degrees

Assuming this is correct, what would be the point of Ymir sending Eren the memories of how his home will be destroyed? It was going to happen anyways, so it's not like she had to send him anything to convince him of taking revenge on the titans, eventually leading to Eren freeing Ymir.

She wants revenge on the world. Same as Eren. Ymir was used as a tool, a weapon, by King Fritz. When the Titan power fell into Marlean hands they did the exact same thing King Fritz did. Used them as weapons to subjugate people. Eren hated the world because they refused to let him be free (or at least his definition of free)

Agreed with everything said here except for the very end. Even though its not ever stated in the manga, I don't think Ymir is thinking about revenge here

Still dissapointed Isayama never elaborate further what hallucegenia is. Why it trasformed ymir into a titan? Is it some kind of a lab experiment from an advanced society? an alien? a god fragment? The story has so much potential to continue if he decided to explore more into the source of titan power.

I don’t think it’s Stockholm syndrome. I think it’s her imagination of wanting to create a better world by being nice and kind to counter the evil in the world

A man of no reputation Yo, they cut her tonge off for being a slave. She has no one and seen so many horrible things.

OH WOW GREAT EXPLANATION The to and from was the memories sent from ymir to past eren

The connection is amazing, however as it has been said, it took almost a decade for the fans to be answered, yet still amazing. I have noticed they put more "foreshadowing/future events" for example in Season 2 they added Ymirs titan transformation which had not been included in the manga, I guess they wanted to "keep up" with the manga. So we already learnt info 2 years prior before it was whole explained in season 3 part 2. Really great times.

The title is basically Isayama saying, "No really -- I planned all this shit out from the beginning. Look at this! LOOK AT IT!"

6:32 Dude used Ymir the same as everyone else. Eren sympathized with her in goal of obtaining the power for his Vendeta, through bypassing the decree she followed that excluded anyone but the royal bloodline to take control of their slave.

I feel like the titles is simple, one is giving the curse of the titans to humanity (to you 2000 years ago), and the other is taking that curse away via extermination of humanity (from you 2000 years ago)

All my homies hate King Fritz.

He had it all in mind man

I have a question: If Ymir's spirit is building all the titan bodies, who built Ymir's own founding titan body when she transforms?

My theory: We know attack titans can send memories and receive memories from past and future attack titan holders. These could've been future Eren talking to his past self to mold him to how he is now.

Playing titanfall in aot video : perfect

The manga chapter 1 does more foreshadowing than anime episode 1.

Ymir was in LOVE with King fritz , kinda like how harley is with joker no matter how much abuse she gets ,

the whole Viking mythology is woven into this story, the world tree, the snake that lives in the tree, witch causes ragnarock. the end of the world.

Wdym over the years lmao the episode just came out

Nah, when he got the power, he sent the memories back to himself and changed everything to what would make a better future

@@uditisinha305 Eren can now access the power of ymir, Google " what does the founder titan do" So it can manipulate and erase memories of the eldians. That's not all since that's just accessing it and giving orders to ymir but now eren on the last episode was given full access to the founder powers " ymirs powers" Since he asked ymir to give up her powers to him. So he can basically visit memories of the past without going with zeke, communicate with all subjects of ymir, control actions, it would of been easy for him to even brain wash himself in the pass to always search for freedom. Eren with just the attack titan can only share his memories, now he has ymirs power

as they all are subjects of ymir , I think eren can send messages to past eren as well because founding titan can influence both titans and subjects of ymir . Its just my thoughts on it. otherwise as like mentioned in this video ymir send the message to the past eren.

I waited 5 years for this episode

You pointing out that his dream predates his titan power just blew my mind. The only option is that Ymir sent it to him….unless he did once he got the founding….brain implosion

Didn’t erin already have the attack Titian at the time though… and seeing memories from all attack titan users is it’s whole thing.

why do good girls like bad guys?

My interpretation is that Ymir created the Attack Titan for the sole purpose of setting herself free. Part of her resented her status as a slave, so she created this titan in the hopes that someone like Eren might come along, someone who fully resents being opressed and who would do anything for freedom. She gave the titan the power to share memories between generations and even affect the past, so that the inherritors know what they have to do and never stray away from the path of liberation. Grisha almost strayed away, but Eren kept him in line. When Eren inherrited the titan, he also inherrited Ymir's wish, and in the end managed to achieve exactly what the titan was designed for.

It hard to understand Ymir action through with this few scene. Ymir may suffer form Stockholm syndrome or let say some kind of broken Shell, but then why Yamir sacrifice or killed her self? Because she couldn't bear the pain and suffer. This mean Ymir is not empty Shell or had Stockholm syndrome. Which rise another question why Yamir let Firtz use her power? Certainly she more powerful then him and even slaves, have free will and power to resist their capture. These might be an hole, even if the reason is Stockholm syndrome, it didn't was shown in this chapter. Great Episode, Great Video

Essentially, Ymir desired love and affection, however she was also bound by her own slave mentality. When she took the spear, it’s probable that when she saw Fritz not care about her, still referring to her as a slave, that she simply lost the will to live. So when she reincarnated in the paths, she unfortunately was still bound by her Stockholm syndrome-esque love for Fritz, combined with her slave mentality, and thus she was destined to follow the will of Fritz and made all the titans

Probably the same thing except the curse of Ymir would be longer. That spear attack was clearly a inside job. So as soon as he was dead his rivals would swoop in to control Ymir. Maybe they would have been better or maybe they would be worse. If Ymir did die later on who knows if they would be crazy enough to try cannibalism to retain her power.

@@DwolfFW I disagree, a big point of Ymir is her loyalty to the king and king only(it’s obviously not like she chose this but in her mind that was her purpose as she was conditioned to think). Everything she did was for him and even after his death, for his descendants. The only thing she ever did for herself was trying to be saved by Eren. I don’t think she would become someone else’s slave but she would definitely want revenge for king fritz as she loved him and craved his affection.

This is deep

If ymir creates the titans in the paths who built ymirs founding titan?

the creature from the tree I guess

Those dreams Eren had in the first episode were only in the Anime. In the Manga Eren had a dream of Mikasa. So I don't know what to think of the dream vision in the anime

Not ymir, eren did... as if you can remember he was controlling kreuger when he and grisha where talking. And he probably manipulated every attack titan as well to go in his way while he was in full control of the founding

That’s a good Theory.

5:38 - he already had the powers. He just didnt know. He had already eaten his father at the point. Eren himself send the message....to himself.

No he hadn’t, that happened afterwards as the events of the show suggest

tbh I felt sad that Ymir was trapped for 2000 years in that dimension, but killing all of humanity is a bit too much, until I heard that in her time, which is slowed down, it meant she was there for millions of years if I was that, bro fuck humanity

Is it possible that like griesha she somehow new fate was this way and just took her place in history?

Since the 9 shifters were created from the kids eating ymir's body, doesn't that mean that theoretically you could have thousands of titan shifters if they're all just fed parts of the previous shifters?

can someone please dumb it down for me? i dont understand the connection between the two episodes (From/to you 2000 years ago/later) i am an anime watcher.

Isayama finished his story before it's start 💀👌.

theres a theory that dina was controlled/ told by eren from a path from the future to eat young erens mother that we saw. This gives the Eren we know the drive to deliver what happened.

wait so you said ymir wasn’t waiting for anyone in particular but it happen to be eren. then you also said ymir sent the memories to eren so she could be eventually set free. then wouldn’t ymir be expecting eren specifically ? im confused
