The beach scene made me cry, like SOBBING. Because they’ve lost so much to get there, and just beyond that sea MORE FIGHTING, more loss, more pain.
It is devastating to know the truth...that all this time they're killing their own people, they're still not free even after being outside of the walls, and their enemy is the world. AOT undeniably has an incredible story. I can't get over it especially now that is near to end
I prefer watching Evangelion, because there is no such thing as ideal world! Everything is could be painful and even worthless, just because we're try to be happy! But, life still goes on. 😌
literally the same. I binged the whole series, s1 to end of s3 over one weekend and I guess the binging made it worse. At the end of s3 p2 I just felt despair and started sobbing at the hopelessness and bleak fate the characters are just trapped in. the story is such a complex, intricate political mindfuck, brilliant as hell world-building.
And eren face was so empty
@@HH-yj1gf eren saw the most history because he has the founding titan. The Man knows everything thats ever happened, no wonder why he seems so depressed
Some people just hate on Attack on Titan just because they think that every popular anime is overrated
yeah this, they think this is gonna be just some gore fest or cliche anime
Lol even i thought aot was basically about giants eating people and what not but then decided to watch it.
One of the best decisions I've made in my life. And now I've also caught up on the manga too. Mind blowing.
ikk theyre popular for a reason...? Cause theyre good lol. Ur not quirky for not watching main stream 🙄
it is overrated, but good. just because something is overrated doesn't mean it's automatically bad. overrated isn't always a bad thing, just depends on what is it.
don’t forget when people say “iT’s ToO PoLiTiCaL” 🙃
I love how they carefully set up all these elements. Marco's death was a meme at the time, just another side character pointlessly killed. But guess what... it wasn't pointless at all!
especially now in the manga! god Marco was my first husbando!!!!.·´¯`(>▂
@@laurengaudette1370 not... levi?
I didn't even know who Marco was when I realised he died
Gaige Schaal i know it wasn’t pointless but i not sure if it’s the same reason that u have. mind telling me why it wasn’t pointless??
okay speak for yourself I loved Marco his death was so sad
Last episode of season 3....
Armin: Wow the sea is so beaut..
Eren: *Death*
Yeeeaaaaahhhh
No Fan service, only war crimes.

They probably go up, preventing anyone from losing their hoods.

I didn't even know what was going on in the fights until I read the comments and watched Chibi.

True.
I like how elitist always hates something so popular, yet preaching something that "underrated" like hurr durr no one know this, that makes this is a brilliant thing
@@dendiepie1547 I'm interested in watching Attack on Titan. Which version should I watch? Dub or sub?
@@moneymayweathera im not english native so i reccomended sub. and also to feel the emotion.
@@dendiepie1547 ok 👍. thanks for the reply
I got lucky and avoided AoT until the end of season 3 when my girlfriend wanted me to watch it. So I got to experience the whole story of the walls at once and absolutely loved it. Especially since I got to experience it all at one time the story got to build quickly and I got to have almost every question answered quickly and efficiently. This story is personally an absolute masterpiece that builds and builds. I can't suggest at least trying it enough.

Aot is one of those animes that I would pause every 5 minutes and give some random speech about what happened to some imaginary people but it’s truly amazing and most of the characters are just so likable

THAT IS TRUE. DOESNT MATTER IF IT HAS 50+ episodes, every episode is gold
Bruh none beats me on that. I've watched it 5 times.

@PEANUT HAMMY it's not a rumour it's officially confirmed by crunchy roll and nhk
I'm not sure if I should be glad or sad that AoT was the first anime I chose to watch 'cause now my expectations are so high lol
watch one punch man/ jojo's for some fun and excitement, wolf and spice, the case study of vanitas, fruit basket, kamisama kiss and full metal alchemist for lighter anime, death note, vinland saga, berserk and monster if you like Eren like persona but personally even tho I love AOT and think its a masterpiece that broke the barrier bet anime and non anime watcher I still enjoy the ongoing one piece, still attached to naruto and looking forward for anime like chainsaw man and yes, I'm not watching demon slayer and jjk. other recommendations: steins gate, katekyo hitman reborn, black clover, neon genesis evangelion, HxH, fire force, tokyo ghoul (but manga is better). if you want sports Haikyu, prince of tennis and eyeshield 21 are the ones I enjoyed the most. there were lots of anime that you can still explore but AOT is way beyond mid level so I hope you won't compare it to anything but death note and vinland saga are my other faves

Tbh the first 4 ep of s4 is confusing as fuck
@@azurii my guy just wait til the rest
@@randomdude1890 yeah no need i already read the manga but the first few ep is still boring oof
I think the point of making the audience think that Eren was eaten was because it made him realize that no one is special, if your there at the wrong moment at the wrong time you’ll die. It made the show seem realistic
When eren got eaten I thought: "damn is this actually all a backstory for mikasa and not eren?!?!" and then i was like waaaaaaaaaaa
@@spaceiscool1236 yeah i also thought that Mikasa is going to be the protagonist lol
When he died I was so shocked I had to stop watching for like a week and I don’t even know why it affected me so much
But then he didn't...

Could you imagine completely erasing all knowledge of AOT just to rewatch it again in complete suspense.

Well, goodbey sweat life and social life then. Wouldn't do anything else in my life, but wiping my memory and watching the AoT like a junky that I am.
I never thought that I would actually say that Attack on Titan is underrated.
RubySapior it is still popular and people say it is overrated because it’s popularity I mean how people get jealous from anime🐸💔

Is it tragic-- yes
Is it bad -- no
@@bakadabakada is meaningless- yes
@@cutiemeowie8352 SPOILER WARNING: come to think of it, isn't that what the show is trying to portray? the show has been telling us how the world is a cruel place and how even as years pass the people will still look at the sins of the past and repeats the cycle as seen in 139.5. Yelena said that we can't take away violence from people. That's why wars have gone through even after all our main characters died. so is it meaningless? Yeah, but eren did achieve what he wanted to do the most and it was to give his friends a chance to live a long and happy life.
@@cutiemeowie8352 seeing that as meaningless is very narrow minded of you, eren achieved his two goals. he rid the world of titans and got his friends freedom. as we see in the real world, peace is never permanent... it can only last for so long. isayamas ending is as real as it gets
Hahahaha you think S3 P2 is the peak of AoT...
Oh boy hope people like plays and marionettes
Mah boi Sawano Hiroyuki strikes every single time. His songs have been amazing in every single production he’s been a part of. Guilty Crown, Aldnoah Zero, Xenoblade Chronicles X. He’s my favorite music composer.
That's cause it IS. This season culminated everything that the whole series built upto and delivered in massive fashion.
Not that anything afterwards isn't great but, the pacing and political elements might not be as enjoyable to everyone, or even too convoluted to enjoy from there on out.
TLDR: It gets edgy, not but really edgy.
I finished watching season 3 and said fuck it i’ll read the manga for season 4..and oh my sweet jesus..this is the greatest anime of all time
Laughs in manga
Reason I won't read manga until the anime finishes: I want to experience AoT the way it was, is and will be with all the great soundtracks, great voice acting, great animation. I want to keep the same feeling until it ends, because AoT is the best Anime Adaptation Series for me so far, not because of it's original story, but because of all the editing, sound mixing combined
Lam Thai that sounds like a good idea!! I’m a manga reader and I kinda wish I could do this because reading it first hand doesn’t have the same effect as watching it. But I struggle just waiting a month for a chapter to come out so I don’t know how I’d go with waiting till the anime airs at the end of the year (if it doesn’t get delayed)! However, the wait will be worth it for you! I’m so excited!☺️
I wanted to do the same as you too but I am very impatient and I don't want to get spoiled. That's why I read the manga first

i hear so much info that are in the manga do you think the last season will include it all or do you think i should read the manga afterwards bc the anime won't have a canon aspect
@@andyvargas2313 Depends on the studio, really. I can't say. They could make 35 episodes to include everything, or compress it into 24 ep.

When Attack on Titan is massively popular in 2013, people say it's overrated. When its popularity dies down, it becomes underrated... *Internally curses at the universe*
Right?I started it a month ago and was honestly a bit shocked at how smaller than i expected the current fandom is...it deserves more attention i swear
@@gumdrop_galaxy Dont take the comment seriously my guy... Just poking fun of the irony for Attack on Titan's situation
It's kind of like what happened with Pokemon Go. In the beginning, there was a lot of hype, and a lot of people got into it (including first timers for that genre/medium).
After people viewed all there was to view and were dissatisfied, as well as waiting long periods of time for updates, a large number left the hype train and abandoned the show/game.
Now, when there are much lower numbers of people involved, AoT has not only hit it's stride, but exceeded it, and Pokemon Go is... still shit.
Wherever there is quantity there is shit. I'm glad that the series has a smaller fanbase now.
But it’s overrated in 2013 because it didn’t have all the story you have in 2019 :3
And now it’s fleshed out people think its underrated, not that hard to understand?

I remember refusing to watch this show because of how simple it was and looked but as the final season started airing I gave it a watch and I binged the whole series. Literally became my favorite show in the span of 3 days.
Someone said “isayama has no idea what he’s doing”
*laughs in manga*
Isayama has no clue what he's doing.
It's all Eren's plan.
Who would even say that.I cant even praise Isayama enough(and ofcourse those who helped him)
He has no idea what he’s doing
Laughs in it was the wine all along
Honestly I think that it's kinda true. Isayama writes whatever comes into his mind and then fills in the voids. If you read the manga carefully, you can find mistakes and contradictions.
@霊幻Arataka -Ymir's pure titan and Jaw titan looks identically same. Pure titans resemble the human's physical appearance and surely look different than 9 Titans. This shows that Isayama didn't have the concept of 9 Titans when he first created the idea of titan users. A similar mistake goes for Frieda Reiss' titan which basically looks identical to female titan.
-During the battle of Trost, Colossal Titan vanishes within a second. This cannot happen as the body of a titan will remain for a short time even after the user leaves the titan. Also when Eren becomes a titan for the first time his titan doesn't regenerate its body.
-As Eren is not of royal blood, he needs to touch someone with royal blood to use his Progenitor powers. When he used it for the second time, he ordered all titans to attack Reiner without touching someone with royal blood (unless Mikasa is of royality).
I've found a few mistakes more when I first read the manga but honestly I can't remember them, sorry.
The worst thing about Attack on Titan is that it makes your bar so high every other story becomes boring
Ikr I can't fucking enjoy things now
Thing is even Western TV shows with millions of dollars of budget cannot reach this. I can't stand to watch other cliché anime either
Zack Fair just shows how much of a genius isayamma is when it comes to story telling Attack on Titan is a perfect story
It makes most other Shonen boring, and it resembles Vinland saga and beserk more than demon slayer, My Hero academia, or Naruto.
Watch
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Steins;Gate and Gintama, if you have not
They are amazing especially the first two and also Code Geass season 1 and if you can bear it then season 2 which is not better than season 1 but it's ending is one of the greatest endings I have ever seen which isn't saying much.

My friend spolied me and apparently mikasa dies

“And now that we’ve reached a point where you actually care about these characters and it’s not fucking two-lined Lenny riding to his death.”
And then there’s me, who would ball their eyes out when even a No-Lined Larry would die in the background.
I like how, when he says that, he shows Floch as well, who basically embodies _every_ "Two-Line Lenny" who ever died in the show.
And then it flips the script by having the actual developed character die and him survive.

0:54 The realization one has when we realize AOT is now officially a much superior than GOT. Where it's ending was so great it caused a resurgence of fans and interest that might captivate people for years where GOT got the opposite response
Great you say.
The ending sucked though?
It may have stumbled at the literal last second, but the finish was solid. A climactic battle, character defining choices, enemies and allies joining together to face off against a fellow enemy, amazing artwork, stakes, payoff, sacrifice, callbacks, emotional reunions, and every character getting the spotlight for at least a moment.
Maybe Erin's story was not perfect... nor was his resolve. But no matter how he felt on the matter he followed through with all his decisions.
Sometimes I think people like to focus on the bad a little too much, so they ignore what made the story great. Bad criticism is fun to read and think about, but you should still give a product praise when it deserves it. And AOT definitely deserves some serious praise.
The ending while not explained the best (but not terribly) is really fuckin good, and left you pondering if you were the kind of person who wants that
@@ChasehaWing Solid? 💀💀
I am starting to think AoT's fans are just a bunch of kids thinking they are intelligent.
Got fandom were adults,they realised immediately that their ending sucked and they accepted it. Just like you do when you are an adult instead of lying to yourself and try to convince people "Oh the ending is really good" and they give no single objective reason on why it is.
Aot fans are trying to do mental gymnastics over a bird's symbolism trying to justify a low quality plot making decision. The moment when the "godness of the titans" did what she did because of a Stockholm's syndrome bad introduced with no good basis in the manga and no further development at all just shows you they will eat anything,even if its shit and they will say "masterpiece".
Aot was one of the best animes ever made and this video is true,but only for the 3 first seasons.
The 4th season in solid and good but the last arc is bad paced and the bomb that dethroned AoT and will make the show become the next GOT is the last chapter.
At this point in the manga I am questioning my own existence
Eren wrote you. You just don't know it yet.

Love this comment
I am an anime only, and I haven't read the final chapter and I plan to wait for the anime until 2022. But I have heard a lot about how isayama ended it on an unsatisfactory note and how it was not good and all. But isn't it always has been the case that a lot of elements in the story are too conveniently placed there (and I accept that that convenience factor has always paid off well at the end) to raise some eyebrows. For example: Eren was not eaten in the beginning of the anime with just his limbs cut off, mikasa was saved by eren when she was out of gas losing hope in her and suddenly at a convenient timing..eren showed up, when beast Titan began throwing rocks at the scouts.. Levi was standing at the top of a house.. but didn't get hit (conveniently). Don't get me wrong, I love this saga.. and I know some things are essential to happen for the story to move forward. But at the end..my point is.. *Isn't reality filled with a lot of uncertainty to which a lot of our expectations falls victim to? Isn't it the case that disappointment and despair is what gives us the motivation to keep moving forward to find a better way of life?* The only thing I am getting at is that reality is filled with disappointments and aot has always taught us more than enough to come to terms with those feelings.
(Sorry for this essay.. )
None of the things you said could qualify as convenience .
I am glad if u think like that, my point was only the uncertainty aspect of everything. I am infact in no position to nitpick the genius of isayama's craft.. every story has its flaws and opinions differ. So I am happy to see ur perspective.
@@chewypossum2547 Isayama did not just bring conveniences into the story , Isayama moved out of his league . He tried to go beyond his lane and his his story suffered. I would be very amazed if he could pull it off. It was not only the final chapter , it was the last arc as a whole , all the events were culminating to the finale we got.
Honestly the ending is significantly better if you weren’t keeping up with the manga fandom and their shipping wars and theorizing for the last few years. Some people will still dislike it but I guarantee the anime only fans will enjoy it more generally speaking. Many of the manga readers didn’t like one specific aspect of the ending and because of that they act like everything about the ending is shit when that is just blatantly untrue. Since it didn’t end in the way they wanted, they decided everything about it is bad. It’s honestly really petty and pretty damn obnoxious.
hey Mikasa will live because the author says so. who's the author?, that's the question to be answered on last season. chapter 139 is great if you don't belong to the infamous yeagerbomb and anr shits of reddit and twitter
For most shows I watch it gets harder to stay surprised and engaged when plot twisting scenes happen as the story progresses. When I tell you the story in Attack on Titan will constantly keep you surprised, I'm not joking. Even though its nearly finished, I am always in awe of the new information given. And when you put all the pieces together you get blown away. Let me tell you, by the end of the story, all your questions, even ones you didn't even knew you had, will get answered. Everything will eventually make sense. Also, there is so much symbolism and opportunities to make viable theories. It's basically impossible to get all the details without rewatching over and over and over again. And it's not just Eren's story that matters, everyone's contribution and development shapes the world. It's so depressing. It's so complex. There is no such thing as purely good or purely bad. No plain villains or heroes. Everything is gray. Eren is not your typical shounen protagonist, he is far from it. In conclusion,
Isayama is a *_mad lad_*
One of the better comments on this video, it perfectly sumarizes my feelings on the show.
oh god you EXACTLY explained what most of us feel but cannot find proper words to describe it
Perfect conclusion 10/10
You’ve managed to put the feelings of thousands if not millions of fans have for this show into a perfectly written statement.

To Megashark : It's almost as if AOT itself grew in complexity like a living organism. Starts out simple but if you stick with it it grows and matures into something beautiful you really didn't expect. :-)
@Boi! I completely disagree. I absolutely loved Season 3 Part 1. Sure, it was different, it didn't have Bertholdt, Reiner, or any Titans, but the themes were really strong. I loved Historia's character arc, Kenny was absolutely amazing, and Eren actually got some really good character development for once.
As Gigguk said, it's a perfect subversion. The series goes from a world where the enemy is obvious and irredeemable monsters, to where the enemy is unknown, and made up of humans with lives and real motivations.
Season 4 would be more blood bath..
