Some people claim that I'm just mad that my expectations weren't met. While you're technically correct, you've also managed to completely miss the entire point of the video. I would have been fine with my expectations being subverted if it had been, you know, good.

You’re getting a lot of hate from a blinded fan base. Pretty much all your points are valid in addition to being presented convincingly. Great analysis

How funny most of the comments are written by the people praising the ending just because they forgot the story

I love the part when you crying about how Eren doesn't know what he's doing, and 80% this 20% that, not gonna solve the problem, delaying conflict bla-bla-bla.... Yet Paradis was untouched for thousands of years after even despite the disappearance of the Titans and technologically advanced rapidly, until a point when finally it got destroyed (assumably due to a completely separate reason). After all, Eren won. His friends had a long happy life, and Paradis survived.

Amen. Eren as a character devolved into Black Pilled, EdgeLord. Fucking shame, I wanted this story to be more than a Snuff Piece. But the characters with heft to them got shafted left & right.

Why I love the attack on titan ending

Based video about biggest disappointment for someone who has been reading manga for 5 years

bro and what ever happened to "no character being safe"? They literally fought hundreds of titan shifters on Eren's bones, and were perfectly fine other than Levi breaking his leg.

As someone who's been watching this show for 10 years, I hate this ending too. I remember after the release of season 1, I was so hopeful of Armin, Mikasa and Eren eventually being able to explore the world. Yes probably with some good characters dead or gone, but after 10 years waiting it's disappointing I wont lie. And it wouldn't be out of the question to have a "good" ending. My reasoning is many of horror/drama anime HAVE bad endings, so for once to have this end on a good note would not be crazy. It just seems so rushed to be like "Oh yeah Eren sees into the future so he has to do everything and he's in everyone's minds and basically god at this point who is suicidal" What?

I don’t think he cared about killing the whole world or what would happen to paradis island longgg into the future. I think he only cared about having his friends and loved ones having a peaceful and free life. And of course being the people who killed him and became heroes. Once the last of his friends died of old age , I think he wouldn’t give 2 shits about what happened to the world / paradise island

The ending makes Eren more compelling. It shows that absolute power corrupts. When leaders have no checks and balances they often make horrific mistakes. Imagine how hard it would be to make a good decision when you can't tell between the past, present, and future. When choices got hard he would just resort to killing, that's what he did with the rumbling. Eren didn't just kill 100% of the outside world is because he would of had to kill all of his friends to do it. Even if he did that peace on the island would only be temporary. They would just end up fighting each other like in season 3. Eren's plan was not perfect is because he's human. The whole point of the show is to show the flaws in humanity. There has never been a point of time in human history without war. Evening out the populations it gave his friends just enough time to enjoy some peace. In the end we are human and we will always end up killing one each other. Isayama wouldn't be doing the world justice by giving it an happy ending. In reality, our world is just as cruel as theirs. Eren had the power of a God but in the he made horrible choices because he's human

Moral lesson: Don’t assume. You will only be disappointed.

"If your expectations are always low you can never be disappointed." A wise person

Eren's personal suffering was so great since the very beginning, that even Isayama himself (and the majority aot fans) couldn't fathom it.

Like I assume many did, I got the panel of Eren crying in the water spoiled to me. Just the image, I threw my phone away before I could read the dialogue.

I find it funny how when people talk about bad writing they immediately compare the show to Game of Thrones ending.

I disagree with the majority of your points within this video.

Based + Flochpilled

Some of the points are being brushed over and you haven't understood his character that well

Gotta agree with you.
