Like he needed an extra push. But this episode made me really respect Eren. Because he really did stay true to himself. It’s true, he has always been like this since he was young. While I was waiting for season 4 to come out, I rewatched the previous seasons and during that time it became clear to me how Isayama portrayed Eren even from the start. It seemed likena clear foreshadow of what was to come. One of my favorite quotes from Eren is after he killed those men who kidnapped Mikasa. “I got rid of dangerous animals. They just happened to resemble humans.”

I actually think THAT is what allowed Eren to break the chain and regain control in the first place. My theory is that Zeke was only able to break the vow renouncing war due to the power of his own conviction surpassing that of even king Fritz'. With Zeke re-embracing Grisha as his father, he sees that being born an eldian into this world isn't just needless suffering, so his determination to go through with the eldian euthanization plan wavers, reinstigating the vow renouncing war since Fritz' determination once again surpasses Zeke's, thus returning the power of the founder to Eren.

The euthanization plan doesn't work without the 2nd part: the "sample/partial" Rumbling that Zeek needed Eren for in order crush the global alliance military so they wouldn't attack for another 50 years+. That's why he needed Eren to be a key and work with him so they could work around the vow (the euthanization itself would probably be fine with the vow though). Otherwise, if he ate Eren and obtained the power normally, he would be bound by the Wall King's vow and once they were all euthanized, Zeek wouldn't be able to scare the world away from Paradis for long enough for the rest of Eldia to die of old age.

Its important to note that Grisha doesn't see Eren or even Zeke, the reason he is looking at their direction is because Eren is simultaneously sending his memories of him and his brother in the PATHS to Grisha, which is why he seems to know what Zeke looks like because Eren is behind him (notice how Eren is purposely positioning himself throughout the episode), glancing at his brother. It's also why Grisha can seemingly hear Eren's words at the chapel, as he is sending his memories of him glaring at Frieda and at his father while reminding him about the families and allies he has lost because of Marley.

@@susano-o Yeah, I agree that giving attack titan to Eren is the only smart option for Grisha. But still, lets just imagine that Grisha gave his power to someone else or kept till his death. He could have changed future and history. I dont agree about "Eren being the attack titan is set in stone and there is no way out of it for Grisha". Grisha has his own freedom and he can do whatever he want. So there is a possibility where Eren doesnt get attack titan. I'm trying to say that there is theoretical way, where everything goes wrong. And Grisha theoretically could have chosen that way. Also literally every AT shifter could have done something to prevent memories that Eren sent to them. Kruger could not give his power to Grisha, Grisha could not give his power to Eren, Grisha might not even find Carla to birth Eren. So many factors that could went wrong. I understand that there is only one timeline and what heppend that heppend and you cant change that, but there were real possibilities that could change everything.

Thanks for explaining how Grisha was able to interact with Eren and see himself by looking at the Attack Titan current memories while he was in the past. Pretty mindblowing and a lot of memory inception stuff

I think its important to understand that Eren did NOT change the timeline. Grisha always stopped himself from killing the Reiss family and Eren from the future always pushed him to kill them anyway. This is what always happened. There is no version of that event where Grisha killed the royal family himself, he was always convinced by a future Eren to do it. Eren isn't changing the past, he is fulfilling what his future self in the past had already done.

@@D_.-00 The best way to explain this is to make 3 distinctions, Eren, hologram Grisha, and past Grisha. One thing to keep in mind is that hologram Grisha is just a manifestation of past Grisha and doesn’t exist. Another thing to remember is that the Attack Titans ability is it allows someone to see future memories of a next successor. Past Grisha can see Erens future memories, and if the Attack Titan hypothetically had a successor after Eren, Eren would hypothetically see the future memories of the next successor (afaik Eren doesn’t have a successor). Eren and Zeke didn’t go back in time, rather Zeke is showing Eren hologram Grisha. Now this leaves the question of how is Eren influencing the past if they didn’t go back in time. What Eren is doing is that he is taking advantage of the Attack Titans ability to allow Past Grisha to see into Erens memories. He is using this ability to talk to past Grisha. It is also through this that Grisha can see Zeke. He is not seeing Zeke through his eyes but rather through Erens memories and thus through his point of view. In the final scene where he hugs Zeke, Past Grisha is actually seeing through Eren’s memories both Zeke and Hologram Grisha. As far as past Grisha taking the founding Titan, Eren is taking advantage of the Attack Titans ability as a way to communicate with past Grisha. That’s the jist of it. Eren is seeing a hologram Grisha, hologram Grisha is simply a manifestation of everything past Grisha did, and Past Grisha can see Zeke and can receive messages and be convinced by Eren through the Attack Titans ability to show memories from future successors. As for how past Eren knew what was going to happen, he isn’t looking into the future like Dr Strange. He is looking into past memories of past Grisha. Because past Grisha has part memories of what older Eren will do in the future, younger Eren can access every memory that past Grisha had of older Eren.

Also, the scouts call zeke a 'beast' titan because paradis is a cold temperate climate, which harbors no monkeys, therefore they couldnt possibly know what a monkey is. FUN FACT: Coffee also cannot be grown in paradis, so when Armin investigates Zeke, Bertolt and Reiner's abandoned campsite (where they brewed coffee) he finds a used mug, which he smells to determine what beverage that they were drinking. He never drank or smelled coffee, so he describes it as a nutty, bitter black liquid. This happens in season 3 part 2.

I have a theory, Eren was chosen and is being used by the original king because he said if Marley broke the truce he was going to release the rumbling. The king entrusted the Attack Titan if ever Paradis needed to defend itself. He entrusted the Attack Titan to set things in motion if there was ever a time it needed to happen. Especially to circumvent his oath of peace that the founding Titan seemed to be stuck on.

Also I like your theory because let’s say if Attack Titan does indeed have these kind of power to see into the future from the very early days (before the oath), that means Eldian have strategic advantage over any war they fought because they can see the outcome. However in the oath case, since the cold war is going to be far spanning years, it is going to be a long game. So, the only titan capable of doing this is the Attack Titan. Also the Attack Titan must start from outside of Paradis in order to not have their memories erased (wether the king entrusted this responsibility or not to the AT).

I really appreciated the shift on perspective of Eren. While his rage against the titans is completely justified in earlier seasons (even his rage towards the people who left Eldians ignorant within the walls), his continued determined hatred really shows how dangerous and destructive he has been throughout the story. Of course Eren wouldn't change from simply witnessing the outside world for a few years.

With all that being said, this can also mean that Eren could have persuaded even other attack titans even before Grisha. So this means he could have manipulated Eren Kruger to give the attack titan to Grisha. This can even possibly predate all the way to the first attack titan. Since time functions differently in the paths realm, he could have spent all his time there manipulating every single attack titan so that it could end up in his hands eventually. I know that he would need to have the power of the founding titan to do so, but with the rumbling confirmed, it basically confirms that Eren also is given full access to the founders abilities. Thus allowing him to stay in the paths realm to send future memories to past attack titan users just so that it can all lead to this very moment. Meaning, that Eren could be the mastermind behind every thing since titans came about. Hence the intro "This is the story you started".

If eren is the last attack titan, he very well could have given the memories to make people fight for freedom in every generation, making him the sole reason the attack titan is the way it is.

I have a different option-opinion than the three you have established in the end about why Grisha went on to pass Attack Titan to Eren anyways.. I think that after all those interaction and realizations Grisha made in the hideout of Rheiss family with Eren, he felt like his own son,Eren, had total control of his father's mind..Grisha felt a prisoner of his own son's will and because of the Attack Titan inside him, he had a strong impulse to literally get rid of his Titan, so that he can feel free from his son. Just like an Attack titan would do everything to pursue freedom...

For the last part of the video when you explained Grisha's reasons for giving his titan to Eren, the better explanation is that Grisha's actions were set in stone. As you said, the fact that Eren sent him memories means Eren gets the Attack Titan in the future. So Eren not getting the Attack Titan would be a paradox, and it can't be resolved by Grisha just fading away, that's not how it works. What's next, the Reiss family members will come back to life and the church will be restored? No, the better explanation is that the future is already set in stone, just as the past is. Meaning Eren *will* get the Attack Titan no matter what Grisha wants. If Grisha decides to give it to someone else, then that someone will end up being eaten by Eren. It's basically like what happens in Oedipus. Even if you know the future, taking actions to alter that future will simply result in those actions leading to the future you were trying to avoid. It's a closed, unalterable time loop.

A lot of people were saying that Eren is 'picking and choosing' memories from paths to show to Grisha but I don't think that is what is happening. Obviously like the the narrator of this video is explaining, Eren did have some influence over what Grisha was seeing in this moment. But the fact that Grisha was seeing through Eren's eyes at these moments at all was not in Eren's control. I think that rather they were all fated to come together at this memory/memories. What is really happening here is the Attack Titan's power to transcend time (NOT Eren using the founding Titan's power to pick and choose memories to send to Grisha). For those who are confused about what I mean by this, here is my terrible explanation of what the narrator was saying in this video: Remember: Grisha said that the Attack Titan's power is that it is able to see into the memories of the future inheritors. An example of this could be when Kruger was experiencing the future memory of Grisha saying to Eren, "Mikasa's life, Armin's life, everyone's life depends on you being able to control this power", right before having Eren eat him. Kruger experienced that memory right before giving Grisha the Attack Titan and said to Grisha, "save Mikasa and Armin" even though at that time, neither Grisha nor Kruger knew who Mikasa and Armin are. Similarly, right before giving Eren the Attack Titan, Grisha has a similar experience. He sees through future Eren's eyes in this moment. The CRAZY thing is, the future memory of Eren that Grisha happened to see was this very moment itself, because in the future (aka this episode) Eren and Zeke decide to go through Grisha's memories and look back upon this moment. Why was it this exact moment that Grisha happened to see? Who tf knows lol. Why was it that Kruger saw Grisha saying 'Save Mikasa and Armin' from the future? I think the answer to both of these questions is that it is simply just fate. These are the memories they happened to see, no one was incepting them into their heads. So basically, Grisha is probably having a crazy out of body experience in this moment. He is looking through the eyes of future Eren, who happens to be looking at past Grisha through the power of the founding titan. So Grisha was seeing this present moment through Eren's eyes (and Eren is standing behind Grisha). So Grisha is basically seeing himself in the third-person as he talks to / hugs Zeke. One thing that is interesting to think about is how the f*** Eren must feel in this situation, or even how he felt at the end of season 3. When he kissed Historia's hand at the end of season 3, he glimpsed into Grisha's memories of this exact moment. That is why in this episode it flashes back to Eren kissing historia's hand. He kisses her hand, then re-lives these memories through Grisha's perspective. Remember the horrified face Eren has at the end of season 3 after kissing historia's hand? That is the same horrified look that Grisha had on his face when he was about to crush the children. So at the end of season 3, Eren experienced the same anguish his father felt on this day.... only to learn that the anguish was caused by none other than himself.... It must have been hard for Eren to deal with this. Think about the beginning of season 3, how disappointed Eren was to find out that his father crushed all those children. Then when he kissed Historia's hand, he realized that HE was the one who convinced his father to kill all those children and re-lived that experience through Grisha. I think this is the moment in the series where Eren "changed". And when I say "changed" I don't really mean he changed. I mean he realized that this future is completely inevitable; it is a conundrum, completely out of his control. From this moment on, Eren knew that sometime in the future, he would convince his dad to kill those children and push this story forward. From this moment he knew that he had to keep pushing forward. The future is the future. And when the future affects the past, it becomes certain that that future cannot be changed because if it was changed, the past would be changed too. From this moment on, he knew that things were going to go his way, which is why he was being so sketch in season 4 part 1 going along with Zeke's plan. Because he KNEW that Zeke's plan wasn't going to work as a result of this future-past-present bullshit.

its also interesting to note that from grisha's perspective, given that eren and zeke have been dabbling in those simulated memories ever since eren's birth (his first memory), grisha has probably been under the assumption than both eren and zeke have been watching over him. To put into different words, grisha was haunted by eren and zeke for the remainder of his life, ever since eren was born. its nothing too important, but it gives a new perspective on what it was like for grisha throughout those years after eren's birth. Also, WIT actually made a very expectable mistake when adapting the first episode, since they show grisha looking directly at kid eren and carla when holding the basement key. In the manga, its hard to tell but after seeing this scene you can very well assume that grisha was not facing eren, since you get a profile shot of him. that said, there is no background in that scene (its just blank white) so its completely understandable that WIT could think of it as just a profile shot of grisha facing eren and carla

The nature vs nurture theory is so well put in this episode the difference between Eren & Zeke and their backstory 🙏

Nature always wins.

I love grishas story throughout aot. Especially through Keith shadis's eyes he's called a chosen one at first then when he compares himself to eren grisha says Keith is nothing like eren. At first this seeks like a slight on Keith but after this scene we know it's more of a complement. Keith you are nothing like this monster of a son I have

Wow I've seen like two other videos on this episode still having questions or concerns, but this video basically stomped all of em. All the confusing parts have been put to rest. Thank you for the amazing video... subscribed

Truly

Grisha's VA is impeccable as is the animation by Mappa which perfectly portrayed his spiraling decent into complete hysteria. 13/10

thank you so much for this! this cleared up a lot of things that i was a little confused about but now everything makes so much sense:)

great explanation literally cleared up all my confusion on the time travel/memories

Honestly i really feel bad about Zeke and Eren’s relationship. The way Zeke is trying ti save Eren and become sort of like a Father Figure to his younger brother is cute, but for Eren to do all these things and just use him is sad. This episode was amazing because it also shows a bit about the time loop theory (which i think is true.). (Edit) Holy, never expected my comment to go a bit viral, this is my first comment that went a bit viral

What an amazing breakdown. Thanks for putting in the work TQ its appreciated.

thank you so much for this. I feel like I always get super confused with the lore heavy episodes apart from the action packed ones. This really just cleared up everything for me. crystal.

I love these so much. AOT is such a complex anime that my smooth lizard brain just can't comprehend half the time. I'm glad I can get a good analysis and breakdown with these videos

This was one hell of an episode hype for the next episode and i guess in the next episode were going to see founding Ymir's backstory because we saw eldians riding horses and Ymir's founding Titan hype to see it

Perfect breakdown of the episode brother❤❤

You are the guy I turn to soon after finishing the episode. Happy to say that I haven't felt disappointed by your explanations, even if the episode makes me feel so. And the fact that you know what's gonna happen next and still make 15 mins long videos without spoilers is just amazing, man. Thank you for being a brother like zeke❤️❤️

You’re actually the best anime breakdown person I’ve ever listened to! Thank you for making it clear!

This is the greatest piece of fiction or any story in all of history i don't think anything will come close for a long time. A true masterpiece .

THANKS! You cleared alot of things up!!!

omg this is like the only video ive seen that i actually understood rhanks

If you want some fun thoughts, rewatch the scene where The Owl talks to Grisha, it might not have been animated but Eren is manipulating Kruger at that time. (i think at least it would make a lot of sense)

I think after Grisha realized what Marley did, he honestly wanted everything from Eren's future memories to happen. I wish Eren showed that memory to Zeke.

Griesha *doesn’t* realize what Marley did. He cries to Eren wondering why he can’t know more - particularly about the initial Marleian invasion. He admits knowing what is to come much later - things even Zeke and Eren have not yet seen and only hopes and prays that it’s for the freedom of Eldia. He likely passes on the power for the same reason he killed those children when he clearly *didn’t* want to. He’s compelled by the path set before him - the story he started when he stepped beyond his own wall as a child.

Of course he does. Grisha cries just after the attack on the reiss. Once he goes back to find eren and pass him the titan, he KNOWS the wall was attacked and says to eren to avenge his mom. I believe this is the moment the OP was talking.

By far your are the best breakdown/analysis channel for attack on titan

My favorite part of my week is watching AoT and then watching your breakdowns right after. Even if i completely understand what i watched, i absolutely love watching these videos.

honestly ur weirdly good at explaining things lol thanks for this I was confused outta my mind

I was so confused this episode I’m so glad these videos are made 🙏🙏

This is for FOR SURE the best plot of all film I have ever seen. Such an interesting story that was carefully planned to lead us to a great end to the series.

This explains how Eren is misunderstood among the viewers, even when he was simply accepting the fate because there ain't no possible way and that is what had to be done through time to time...

This was super helpful. Thanks!

You're amazing man, I didn't expect your breakdown this soon. Loved your explanation.

@@CJ-ot5wp I disagree with the ideas eren is being controlled I don’t think any character from the series has any other control the the other characters don’t I believe that in this this universe things are not predetermined but happen because nothing else can happen for the universe can continue to exist and I think that any other possibility won’t happen Bc it cant/wouldn’t . Which is what makes the “future memories possible. I think that eren did exactly what he wanted to do the entire series and just accepted the sacrifices because as he said I would take others freedom before they take mine which is exactly what he did.
