The reason Eren looked so scared when he kissed Historia's hand was because not only did he see his dad kill the family, but he saw HIS FUTURE SELF TELLING HIS DAD to kill them, which is why he was extremely shocked.

[@JessChillN_]

Exactly I had a huge brain blast flash back cause he sees grishas shocked crazy face and then eren has the same face but now we see why he got it so that means eren seen it happed and it messed him up🤯🤯This show is SS++

[@CougheePls]

Historia: It's ok, eren. It's your father who murdered my sister, not you. Eren: 😬

[@footlong7980]

That didn't look like fear though...

[@JessChillN_]

@@footlong7980 I mean more freaked out yeah but go back and look its literally the exact freaked out face grisha had and we didn’t see why his face was like that we just seen a crazy face like he was going wild while attacking them but now we see in this episode exactly why and when he made that face so eren seen it happened and he was upset about it

[@asif1845]

Its not that he was scared. It's more like he was disgusted by his father's weakness. He was angry at his father, he loosed all hope for grisha at that moment.

[@ahmadiskandarzulkarnain5833]

Isayama: I'm so tired of making this manga Eren: What are you doing? Sit down, author. Did you forget? The reason why you wrote this? Isn't it to hurt your readers? For open the sauna. You have to write this story and keep moving forward. Even if you die, and even after death. This is the story that you started, isn't it?

[@OtherDude]

Yup, even Eren fell victim to season 4 spoilers. No one is safe

[@ad7265]

because future Eren led everything to the point where Historia becomes the queen, so young Eren can restore his future memories

[@nirvanaqueens]

that makes sense now!!

[@DipMaster20]

@@ad7265 yea its crazy, that every single attack titan to this point, was led by eren, including his younger self. That is why the attack titan has always fought for freedom and advancement. That is not a Attack titan trait... It's Eren's traits being passed down all the previous titans to lead to this very moment. Like Kruger getting the attack titan, finding grisha and giving him the titan, then sending grisha inside the walls, having another kid and then grisha giving it to eren... All these events were written by eren... which is really cool.

[@animeproduction401]

I don't think Eren was angry when he kissed her hand. I feel like he was just shocked.

[@twanishq]

The parallel between Attack Titan and Founding Titan is mind-blowing, Founding Titan's power is defined by it's predecessors but the Attack Titan's power is ultimately controlled by it's successors.

[@alucard8433]

The only reason Eren was able to control the actions of his father is because Historia and Rod Reiss showed him the events of what happened, as the Attack Titan is not able to transfer memories to the inheritor he was able to manipulate the circumstances since he had gotten those memories. Otherwise he would only have been able to see the next Attack Titans memories that they showed to him.

[@drakephysecron6775]

And also seek was there for him to help him activate the founder power of memories I think the ability of the attack titan’a receiving memories and the founder’s all around memory manipulation help eren control what grisha sees.

[@Snzn18]

The parallel between Zeke and Eren is Nurture vs Nature.

[@hyunweewoo]

@@alucard8433 huh? isn't it that the attack titan can see both the past holders' memories AND the future holders' memories? when historia and rod touched him, it just let him see a part of that scene, just not grisha giving up in the moment. he then later saw grisha giving up, recontextualizing the moment (causing the shocked face because he was wrong about his father), when he kissed historia.

[@alucard8433]

@@hyunweewoo Pretty sure the attack Titan could only see visions from its future inheritors and because of Rod and Historia he was able to see the past and im pretty sure when he kissed Historia's hand he saw his dad give up on that day and saw himself standing next to him, after he kissed Historia's hand you no longer hear Eren's inner monologue. It was only after Rod and Historia originally touched him that he was able to see his dad's memories.

[@moralarf3041]

Eren is that one meme of the guy pointing a guy to himself, but unironically. Mans built so different he created a paradox in his own timeline to dictate his own life events. Isayama is astonishingly skilled. The way he weaved time travel into eren's character to portray him as the perpetrator and victim of his own atrocities is absolute genius.

He wouldn't have done anything if the dumb pacifist king just protected their people from the nazi Marleyns and the rest of the world 🙄😂😂

[@Hiky01Prime]

I think he didn't created any paradox. I think that everything here was already meant to happen. Any "influence" he had made, like manipulate his father, was meant to happen. I think he kinda sent his memories, his point of view, his way of thinking to his father. In other words, maybe Grisha was seeing Eren's memories from his point of view; and maybe the powers of the Attack Titan combined with the Coordinate and the royal blood (Zeke) permitted Grisha to feel his sons presence, and even able to see Zeke. Some theories indicates that everytime Grisha saw Zeke, Eren was behind him, so it was like Grisha saw the present through Eren's vision. It wasn't time travel, is was communication through memories across the timeline. I even think Eren has only now interacted to his father's memories to this level because now he's in the Paths and has someone of royal blood with him, hence it would cause some kind of "unlocking" in abilities, that being the capacity of not only have a glimpse of memories, but to "interact" a little more, like he were behind the scenes like that.

[@Trathien-]

there is no paradox tho

[@hmzhyt]

Remember Levi in Season 1 talking about Eren: "He is a real Monster, and im not talking about his titan abilities. No matter how hard he’s restrained, no matter what cage he’s put inside. He will never submit." Eren has always been the way he is since birth.

“From now on, it will go Eren’s way” - Grisha, in basically, the very first episode of the anime. This really puts things into perspective.

[@Tredhd]

Oh shit. 😟

[@grey-s]

@Mr. White It's the same timeline. It happens at the time of the very first episode (s?), even if you didn't see it in the first episode it still happened

[@grey-s]

@Mr. White sure, maybe I misunderstood what you meant. Still this did happen during Episode 1 (more or less) *Anime viewers read no further* even if things had happened 2000 years before that, the moment this plays is still the first episode, so he's technically correct, I think. But that doesn't matter. I think we're arguing the same thing. He said it's the first episode, which technically is around that time, you're saying Eren's story began way before that and you're also right about that in a way

[@xyz_xyz575]

@Mr. White i was not talking about the aot universe, i was talking about the first episode of the anime - series 1, episode 1, that aired on 7th April 2013. Again, the 1st aired episode itself, not the full timeline of aot universe that contains events that happened before those presented in the 1st episode aired in 2013.

[@luciferkotsutempchannel]

@Mr. White OK, but to clarify, the story may be non linear, but the timeline itself is fixed. Everything that happened was going to occur the way it did, and there's no alternate timeline.

[@davidvazquez4859]

The "Eren actually brainwashed Grisha" was one of the biggest plot twists, and the fact that you predicted it is amazing, love your reactions!

[@_syzygy_]

Pretty ironic too, what happened to Grisha was literal karma: brainwashed his first son to later be brainwashed by the second

[@at_oussama]

use “predicted” loosely here

[@terrencel323]

@At Oussama I was thinking the exactly same thing. They picked up on the clues early in the episode.

[@Dragondetierranegra]

I wouldn't call it influence, I mean. Zeke takes Eren to see Grisha's memories, since Zeke as a founding titan has that power. From Zeke's perspective, everything he is seeing is happening, for Zeke he is seeing in the present the past. For Eren, as an attack titan and the only one who can see the future, he is seeing what has already happened, that is, Eren not only sees what happens (present) but what will happen (future), for which, for Eren, the present is already past. While Grisha is seeing the future, since he is also the attack titan, but from his perspective, he does not see what has already happened, but what will happen, that is why he is able to see Zeke, because he does not see literally Zeke, he sees Eren's memories that are in the future (the present for Zeke and Eren) and that is why he can hug Zeke, since he knows that Eren and Zeke will travel to that moment, also taking advantage of the fact that Grisha can see the future, Eren sends a message to the past, doing what he should do, from Grisha's perspective, he is seeing the future, that is, Eren talking to him, while from Eren's perspective, he is doing what has already happened, while from Zeke's perspective, he sees what's going on.

[@BhlackBishop]

why do people keep calling it brainwashed, it was just a pep talk

[@Omega_Star_]

@@asif1845 he does, it's intended and eren is playing the devil's role in this.

[@qoenntrell]

The reason why Grisha appeared to be able to touch both Eren and Zeke is because by way of the Attack Titan's power, Grisha can peek into the memories of future inheritors, and the experience of seeing himself and Zeke from Eren's POV is so surreal that to them, they exist in the same time and space and are thus able to interact with each other as if physically together. That's also why Grisha only sees Zeke from Eren's POV, and never explicitly reacted to Eren's presence, he's essentially staring at an estimation of where Eren's at when he's "looking" at him, when he's actually seeing himself from his POV. Edit: Spoilers in the replies (Be careful)

[@s7r0ngm4d]

But only Eren can directly communicate with and dictate the past attack titans since he has both the attack titan and the founding titan, allowing him to access the paths dimension (after touching Zeke) and the past memories of attack titans wherever he sees fit.

That's why the first chapter of AoT called "To You, 2000 years from now." And the upcoming chapter called " From You, 2000 years ago" Almost like Ymir the Founding Titan addressed to Eren in chapter 1, then in next episode, Eren the Attack Titan gonna finally address to Ymir properly.

When Zeke finally tears up and calls Grisha "tosan" (dad or daddy) I straight up ugly cried.

[@Kalenz1234]

It was also brilliant to go with tou-san instead of otou-san. Tou-san is just short for otou-san but as Zeke's voice was cracking up he said as few syllables as possible.

[@qoenntrell]

It's so meta that Eren has essentially trapped himself in this causal loop by his own doing, an extension of his suffering as a product of his freedom loving nature. He's a slave to the determinism he engineered, a slave to the story and to himself (3x10 Friends). If everything was decided from the start, does Eren even have free will? Isn't it just ironic?

Eren whispered in Isayama's ear and told him to write this story On a serious note, it's really scary how Grisha, someone who was so anti-Marley and pro-Eldia, saw one glimpse of Eren's plan and was like, "Zeke. You have to stop him." Despite Grisha's hate for Marley and how far he was willing to go, even HE thought his plan was too far. He was genuinely horrified. Whatever Eren's plan is, Grisha does not want it to happen. Speaking of, Zeke and Grisha finally getting to work out their issues and hug each other in a moment of pure love is really heartwarming. Grisha understood his mistakes when raising Zeke before. Instead of only treating him as a tool, he treats him as his son. Zeke is finally able to take his first step towards closure after years of trauma. Even if they had their differences, Grisha and Zeke can at least agree with one thing: Stopping Eren...

[@wymg4480]

well i think maybe if Grisha was younger he mightve agreed with Eren. By the time he got the attack titan, he lost most of his anger.

The best way to describe the attack titan shenanigans is that eren isn't fighting for freedom because of the attack titan. The attack titan is pursuing freedom because eren possesses it.

To explain the future memories bit, the power of the Attack Titan is the power to send memories from its future inheritors back to its past inheritors. That makes it unique from other Titans which can only see memories from the past. The thing with the future memory transfer is that you can't send future memories back to your past self, since the AT only has to power to send the future memories to its past inheritors. There's a loophole, however, which Eren has exploited. If you send future memories to a past inheritor, and then unlock the past memory of that inheritor seeing those future memories, you see your own future memories. Grisha isn't actually seeing Eren. He's seeing himself in the 3rd person from Eren's pov, thus hearing what Eren is saying. It's the same with Zeke, Grisha only sees Zeke when Eren is directly looking at Zeke. When Eren kissed Historia, he unlocked the last of Grisha's memory of Future Eren sending him the future. Thus Eren learned of events which would occur in the future.

[@joeljosephjacob6898]

This is actually very wrong. It's interestingly done but also very wrong. You explained a loophole with which Eren can see his own future memories. But thats just unnecessary. Eren can anyway see his future memories because he's the last holderbof the attack titan.

[@viziontrex]

@@shavedata5436 I initially thought about it that way too. It's not so much that Eren can go back in time it's that by combining the power of the attack titan and the founding titan, Eren can essentially be in the past, present and future, simultaneously. In practice, it looks like time traveling back in time, but only because we experience the show through linear time. Like Zeke said in the previous episode, it had felt like ages before Eren woke up at the Paths. Time is not linear at that place, it is everywhere at once.

[@poppyseed1058]

@@martinaherrera3182 Saying that the entire story happens because of Eren's nature" is so ridiculously reductive to the cruel environment that exists out of Eren's control. Because if that's the case, why is it that when Eren and Mikasa run away in 138-Paradis gets invaded and the only way to survive is to run? Eren doesn't go to Liberio or rumble and yet the problem is still there. Making blanket statements about nature for the sake of being dramatic takes away Isayama's purposefully tight and extreme world building. Isayama didn't have to make the world hate Paradisians to such a degree if he wanted to make the point that Eren “would've made the same decisions because of nature." And he wouldn't have created a sekaikei element in the story if "nature" wasn't something that couldn't be changed. And calling it a story that Eren created is also reductive given an entire other character exists Ymir-who existed long before Eren and whose motivations and traumas and decisions were made outisde of Eren's conception. It's impossible to ignore the influence that future memories have on one's behavior/ feelings. So how can you draw strict conclusions on someone's nature when Isayama wrote so many plot devices that challenge that?

[@randy7796]

Technically, the current Eren has always been in control since the inception of the Attack Titan. It's a time loop, Eren influencing past wielders and even himself so that he ends up at this point in time to do it over and over again. Kruger had Eren's memories, Grisha had memories from Eren, and past Eren had memories and emotions from future Eren. In a sense, there are no Attack Titan wielders, just the Attack Titan, since the very last Attack Titan wielder will always have a dominating will over the past wielders, meaning the Attack Titan wielders in the timeline of AOT that we've experienced has always been just one entity (whoever is the very last wielder). Now, the question is, what future memories Eren has seen to warrant his actions and choose this timeline? Has he only seen his own future memories, or memories from yet another future wielder and Eren is actually the one being controlled, if you can even call him Eren?

Grisha could see Future Zeke because of the Attack Titan ability Which allow the current inheritor of it to see memories of the future (next) inheritor , in this Case Grisha sees Memories of future Eren who traveled back in time with Zeke to visit Grisha memories , so basically Grisha could see stuff from his own vision and from Eren perspective too . Eren was looking at Zeke at the end of the episode , so Grisha could see Zeke too but never saw future Eren , also if there was another person there besides Grisha, he would see Grisha hugging Air not Zeke , it didn't happen it reality , because Only Grisha could see Zeke (through future Eren perspective)

This episode answers why from the moment Eren kissed Historia's hand we could no longer see his inner thoughts like in the first seasons. Remember? Reading Eren's thoughts in the episodes? Because the moment he kissed History's hand he saw his FUTURE! Thanks to his Attack Titan extraordinary hability. That's why he reacted that way when he knows about Sasha's death, he laughs because he couldn't help it. And also I think Eren's expression when he kisses Historia's hand goes like this because he hears Grisha say to Zeke: "Please, stop Eren."

The word 進撃 has two characters: the first one means "moving forward" and the second one means to "attack".

Basically Grisha saw FUTURE Eren's plan and since CURRENT Eren can access Grisha's memories seeing the FUTURE Eren's plan, then he could basically see the future. - To make it simpler: Grisha saw FUTURE Eren's Memories - CURRENT/PAST Eren (When he kissed Historia) saw Grisha seeing FUTURE Eren's Memories.

Grisha screaming is always painful. Grisha Yeager's voice actor is the GOAT! •Some AOT fans when spoiled by the whole manga: spoils everybody. •Eren when spoiled by kissing Historia's hand: Shuts his mouth and keeps moving forward. •Grisha when spoiled: "IT'S TERRIBLE! ZEKE, STOP EREN!"
