How Season 4 REDEFINED Attack on Titan - Overanalyzing Attack on Titan

There’s a good example of an off screen death being well executed and having a gut punch- obviously we see her last moments in Porco’s memories later but it speaks to Isayama’s respect for readers intelligence that her fate doesn’t need to be explicitly shown to have a profound effect.

[@___AVARICE___]

I was always under the impression that a titan form is stronger/more devoloped when coming from somebody who is already formidable. Freckle Ymir was just some lady before getting her form, grisha was a doctor so was just a pot bellied dork, but the soldier types all have a way more developed physique in their forms and that may extend to their abilities being more refined as well

Same with his throwing ability, which he developed before becoming a titan. I wondered if that's why porco was chosen since his bloodline "meshed" with the jaw well

[@lukaslambs5780]

15:24 I think the soldiers especially not having faces is meant to show how in war the individual is swallowed up. In these huge intergenerational conflicts, countless people die who are all the main character of their own story, we just don’t know their story and never will. This fits really well with the theme of perspective in season 4 and really outlines one of if not the biggest tragedy of attack on titan (and the real world some might say) which is that violence destroys humanity on both a small scale and a large scale. Those killed by war are seen as a collective mass, as a statistic, not as a person each with their own hopes and dreams and hardships.

[@phillipgamer2222]

If I recall correctly, on the ship Falco tells Annie and the azumabito rep that Zeke sent him a memory regarding his Titan and the ability to fly, so I figured that by flying around and slicing up Titans, he was flying around watching Mikasa, Jean, Connie and Levi slicing up Titans

[@KyzenEX]

Yup, but that still doesn't explain the memory thing _before_ he ever was a Titan Shifter (or a Pure Titan, for that matter). It's an anime thing only for a reason; it breaks continuity and doesn't make much sense.

[@CardamomYGO]

​@@KyzenEXI mean, technically it's posible and does not break continuity, as all eldians are connected by the paths, even if they have no titans Was it a good addition? Thats another thing xd

[@Vladobrane]

​@@KyzenEXI mean... By the same logic Eren shouldn't have that dream in episode 1 as he's not a Titan Shifter yet. And following that, why exactly did he had a memory of flying anyway? Was there once a Beast Titan that could fly? If so, it must've been so long ago, so how Falco got that specific memory? Or was it a memory from the future (of him flying)? If so, that could only be Eren's doing with the Founding Titan powers, thus he could always send these memories to Falco at any time, even when he hadn't the Jaw yet

So power hungry racist people being 'saved' does not seem like a good thing to me. Eren had every right to do what he did. (And that does not mean that I think what he did was 'good'.

This is probably one of my most favorite episodes of AOT. As a fan of history, I loved the nods to real-world warfare in this episode. Trench warfare, machine guns, artillery, a literal battle train (which was also used in WWI), but there's a twist: Titan warfare. Having the Jaw and Cart Titans help attack enemy lines and give them an edge in battle was so cool. Then there was dropping Pure Titans onto the fort and Reiner coming in to destroy the rest. And the ost was so freaking good the entire episode. Honestly I wish we got a few more battles like this to really flush out the rest of the world, which honestly wasn't really explored much in the series. I won't lie that I did notice the CGI super quick but unlike a lot of CGI haters I ended up getting used to it and now don't have a problem with it.

Reliving all of this makes me wanna cry for some reason. The whole last season was so full of emotions, just remembering them and how I talked about our ideas with an old friend while we were watching each episode makes me so nostalgic. I still remember telling her how I thought Falco might inherit the Attack and Founder Titans from Eren due to the beginning of the episode, ESPECIALLY more so after the Eren eye scene where, for some reason, Falco appears looking back at the camera. Honestly, I genuinely think he might've gotten involved in the memory shenanigans due to him being firstly transformed via Zeke's spinal fluid.

[@wadephony9954]

Falcos jaw titan really bugged me at first but looking back, its established that the shifters can share aspects of their titans. Annie mentions that they had her eat all sorts of stuff to buff up her female. It really makes sense to me that falcos jaw would have beast aspects but the bird is still wild.

[@lilyofthemorningstarx3691]

Maybe im thinking too much into this,but Zeke being called Marley's spear is kind of interesting in a way given how the og Ymir was seemingly killed by a spear,but in the end died not because of that spear,but because she lost the will to live. Similarly Zeke fails to control her later in the paths and it's Eren who reaches her,letting her decide if she wants to join his cause

[@icarus2964]

23:41 I believe lineage does have something to do with titan appearance. If you notice, all three Jaeger titans all have pointed ears and are the only titans to have such ears. As well as the very obvious similarities between Marcel and Porco's titan's that you pointed out. I don't know if anyone else has said this, sorry if I'm just repeating another comment.

[@AstriaRanteas]

Personally Falco's memory thing just seems like a early example of how all Eldians are connected by the paths, we've seen non titan Eldians get memories of other people, like Ymir with Historia, of course that was like connected to the note she got, but it's not completely unlikely to think that because of the connection to that all Eldians have and with Eren eventually getting the Founding Titan, that when suffering serious mental trauma he might get weird glimpses of the memories of the person who commands the paths as it transcends time.

[@hhdbhn302]

At first I thought Falco was a flashback to young Reiner. So I was extra confused lol

about Porco, Marcel and Falco jaw titans armored faces ; i’m pretty sure it’s just a purely « jaw characteristic » as yes, the Gualliards could have had some armored titan fluids given to them but a problem to that theory is that well, Falco didn’t. So in the end i just think that freckled Ymir lost at the Jaw titan swag lottery and that’s it 😭

[@Koroto]

Yeah, Ymir could also just be the exception and everyone gets weird face hardening 😄 Though Falco's jaw could also just be a falcon beak (aka beast's properties) and not actually the jaw titan 🤔🤔🤔

​@@Koroto ymir spent alot of time as a titan. So when it came for big boss ymir to make her jaw the subconscious element from jaw ymir that goes into it, alot of it was just that she has an idea of what her being a titan looks like.

[@xoShortee93]

Haven't finished the video yet but had to pause it just to say THANK YOU for your comment on the "mirroring" of Eren and Gabi. They definitely had their similarities, but so many people got caught up in their "loud" personalities & the scene where Gabi puts her hair up that a lot of nuance for both characters got lost & both started to feel misrepresented. I'm so glad someone else said it, but also that it was you because your analysis is just truly above almost any I've seen to date. Okay, back to the rest of the video!

[@roxlife8173]

I think what truly separates Gabbi and Eren is that Eren hated monsters, he hated something that he had experienced first hand, something that took everything from him. Gabbi has never met, seen, or even understood any of the “devils”, yet she hates them with the same passion. What many don’t understand is that just because she sounds similar to Eren and acts similar doesn’t mean they ARE similar. Gabbi is racist, against people she has never met, yet we are supposed to accept it because we accepted Eren? Eren hated Titans, these aren’t comparable. She obviously was brainwashed by Marley, but that doesn’t mean she gets a get out of jail free card, she went to their homes, saw them help her and still called them devils.

[@grin1323]

"Imagine hating Gabi when Floch exists" is my favourite line in this entire video. Well, besides that, loved to see your great analysis again!

HELL YEAH WE CROSSED THE SEA!!! Oh... we crossed the sea.

I know the CGI is divisive, but I want to tip my hat to the poor animators that likely had ridiculous overtime getting this done.

Unrelated, but I like how Marley’s reliance on the titans for military might while technologically being on the back burner correlates to how in real life states that relied heavily on slavery stagnated in comparison to states with higher automation.

And I agree, Mappa really did an amazing work with these seasons, the colour pallete, the subtler lines, not to mention removing the shine that Wit seems to put on most things and people, really gives WW1 vibes.

When season 4 dropped I 100% paused the episode and looked to make sure I was actually watching Attack on Titan 😂😂😂

[@qinjikofoxx5580]

I actually get the feeling that Falco having memories of being a scout on Paradis is more related to him getting a bit of the Beast Titan's power. Technically he has a Titan and a half, and it shows in his Jaw Titan form. He may be the Jaw, but he has wings and feathers from that little bit of the Beast. My theory is that maybe because of this Eren (or just the paths itself) was able to give him a little bit of the Eldian experience on Paradis to make him a greater asset to the Paradisian Eldians in the battle to come. Can't be sure, though.

[@firecrakcer001]

One aspect of My War to consider is the birds falling section could also represent the death of freedom. Birds always represent freedom and rarely are they depicted as dead or dying. Season 4 is also the official start of Eren officially enacting his plan. Eren, now trapped in a loop, is doomed to carry out an attrocity against his own will to stop it. He's going to carry it out. He's a slave to his own desire. This also goes with the fact that if the world is dead, then no one is free.

[@vermahilen3824]

Love the new intro! ❤

[@rocket_eu]

I have a theory that explains why Falco has that "flying around with swords" line that maybe works in-universe. In the final movie, when Armin's body is unconscious in the mouth of the okapi titan and his consciousness is chilling with Zeke in the Paths, Armin explicitly recognises that his friends are in danger even though he shouldn't technically know it. He chalks this up to the fact that all Eldians are connected via the paths. I interpret this to mean that while his consciousness is in a low-power state (so to speak), his connection to other Eldians becomes more clear in his mind. It's as if the connection all Eldians share has a continuous influence on them, but the sensations that spiritual influence causes can only be consciously recognised when all the physical systems in the body are quiet enough. I think this is what's happening with Falco. Before his mind fully wakes up, his connection to the Eldians on Paradis via the Paths is just acute enough for him to recount their memories. Just as Armin can "feel" his friends fighting Eren, Falco can "feel" the whooshing of soliders flying using ODMG. It's not as concrete as Titan shifters sharing specific, vivid memories, but it is just enough such that Falco can make out a couple key details.

[@chumpakabra]

I think the experiments they have been performing are what Eren unknowingly performed by slurping the armor spinal fluid. Marcel is primarily Jaw with fluid from Cart (movement) and armored- which Marley both had possession of at the time. Ymir got primarily jaw and some cart, idk where the hardening went. Annie also has ability to harden. Falco was hit with Zeke (Beast) fluid, while also inheriting Jaw with cart and armored. Makes more sense why he can fly to me. Also, I always interpreted the opening scene with Falco as a *hint hint, nudge* visit from future Eren to try to save Gabi (and try to save Sasha) from inheriting the armored.

[@MathisR412]

Everything is connected through the paths. Falco was seeing Ymir's memories just like Armin states he saw Bertatoe's memories but 'nothing of note' in one of the episodes.

AND I think Falco was telling himself to fly away because he was seeing his own future in some tiny way.

[@jeremytomkiewicz5982]

I sort of thought the Falco talking about flyinbecaound and not quite looking how we would expect the jaw to look was because he pseudo-inherited a part of the beast since we only see him shift after Zeke had nearly died and was reborn in a titan AND because he was absorbed into Eren's final form. Also it means that Marco has royal blood in his veins so... maybe he is getting weird memory soup? Unlikely, though.

In the episode where Uri Reiss grabs Kenny Ackerman in his titan form, Uri's titan seems to be dragging it's face on the ground like his brother's. I'm really curious of your take on the observation.

I always thought Falco's titan dream was just from the connection that all Eldians have with one another through the coordinate

[@unoriginalandrew]

Oh yes. Here we go. So happy I found this series when I did. At the time I think there were probably 10 episodes? I binged them all and have been obsessed with the episodic schedule ever since! Glad to have fellow obsessive and overanalyzing friends out in the world!

I got the translation when I viewed it episode 59: The other side of the wall, episode 60: The other side of the sea/ocean

I like the idea that the midcard might be an encyclopedia entry or something along those lines about Marley and Marley is trying to project strength by stating how many they previously had rather than the truth. The idea that they had lost two titans to some underdeveloped island nation on a military mission they initiated does not project the strength they want to show, so lying that they still have possession of the titans (or maybe believing they will retrieve them so soon it isnt worth mentioning the change) may be a strategic move on their part

[@brianachim2670]

It’s a miracle Marley has lasted this long as a nation given their sheer incompetence 😂

[@taylertroutt1327]

I cannot tell a lie. I TOO paused the video a couple times in the intro thinking "Did i click on the wrong anime?"

[@goldbucketboys]

Agree with you on Shock, it’s my favorite ending in the series. I sit through the whole thing every time because the visuals are beautiful and I love the song.

[@KolTheSoul]

i believe they used the vocals on Splinter Wolf for the final season. probably one of the battles on the skeleton

[@dalidelights7796]

Just start watching you great content then you drop too top tier 💪🏽🔥

Babe wake up, new episode of Overanalyzing Attack on Titan dropped

[@Norbert_Sattler]

I have some nitpicks about Zeke destroying the fleet, but since this is overanalysing, it seems to fit here. :P Battleships are designed to withstand (to a certain degree at least) armour piercing ammunition, shot out of cannons with rifling, so the shells stay stabilized in flight, so they hit armour piercing tip first, then penetrate into the armour and explode inside. If the armour piercing shell hits with too little speed (like if it's thrown, instead of fired out of a cannon) or side or back-on to the target (like when thrown per hand, which would make them tumble in the air), they would do very little to nothing, since they most likely would first bounce off the armour and only then explode or not explode at all. And if he is throwing high explosive shells, which the immediate explosion on the outside of the ships, without delay would suggest... well, HE shells are made to be used against light and unarmoured targets, and are of very little use against the vitals of an armoured battleship. They'll smash up the upper works, but won't penetrate the vital bits, like main magazines, engine rooms or anything below the water line, meaning it's exceptionally unlikely for even a single one of those ships to sink or explode, much less the entire fleet. Of course, since we are dealing with a parallel universe or somesuch, it's possible those ships just look like real-world pre-dreadnought battleships, while actually having paper-thin armour in the story... so, there's that.

The new intro is fireee

[@doughboi2346]

For the opening scene its as simple as eren giving falco those memories to make him question marleys goals and lead him to do what he does

[@Tooupi]

3D is not a problem. There is a lot amazing looking 3D movies. Shrek is from 2001 and ppl back then knew how to make good looking animations. Problem is when anime studio thinks they can use 3D as a budget crutch. Without spending time on it, it will always look cheap and worse

[@Simp_Supreme]

yep, Japan also use 2D principles for 3D which creates a terrible jarring mess. UFOTABLE have utilised beautifully and seeing their behind the scenes is great, WIT also used CGI creatively during the graduation ceremony since the scene was meant to be uneasy.

[@0Stark24]

I have to say, the director of s4 Hayashi did such an amazing job that I doubt s4 will turn out this way without him. He has such an insane 3D/CGI diercting experiance that take advantage of that technology and not to mention doing all that under such strict time conditions and covid. He is easily my favorite director in AOT

[@RASHON49]

I just assumed Falco could see his memories from the future because Aaron was allowing him to with the founding titan, which isn’t bound by time you know the same way that he could see his own memories and grisha could see his. I assume that was the same thing .

[@commradepotatoe9356]

I always read falco's comment about flying as just a joke to let the viewers know they were still watching aot

[@SA80TAGE]

The colours in the opening and the songs cover art suggest it's more about the realisation that our focus is literal child soldiers. It's almost like a kids colouring book.
