[@awatane3014]

This was my take. Current eren has been waiting for future eren to open his memories to grisha, while grisha was losing it eren was inside his mind watching the terror vision alongside grisha to learn whats going to happen later, when grisha said zeke had to stop eren it meant that grisha had finally seen the end, meaning eren had just seen the end.

[@feralprocessor9853]

4:57 Great, now I think the Editor is Sean's twin brother

[@kartikeytyagi2330]

also what Eren is doing here is trying to break Zeke's will to fight, he allowed Zeke to have a closure with Grisha so that there's nothing left within him to push further for his goal(euthanize plan)

[@nupreview]

It's quite funny and ironic to know that how the Founding Titan was ruled by its predecessors, yet the Attack Titan was ruled by its successors. Isayama really knows how to make a parallel story.

[@iamthebearjew96]

This is, in fact, the reason why I accused Morgan of witchcraft during the season 3 finale. I've yet to see any reason to retract the allegation.

[@alexinator-hh5fe]

Once again, props to Grisha's VA. He absolutely went off in this episode. The stuff with him and Zeke was really great. And even though Eren tries to act all like, "I was tricking you all along, brother. I would never go along with a plan like this" for most of this episode, I think Eren actually does care for and love Zeke. And the reason I say that is because we see that when Grisha tells Zeke to stop Eren, Eren forcibly rejects Zeke from the memory. Meaning Eren could've ejected Zeke the moment the Reiss family was taken care of. But he instead chose to wait and allowed both Grisha and Zeke to get their own form of emotional closure before cutting them off. So yeah, I think Eren does care for his older brother. The same way that Zeke cares about Eren and wanted to show him the light of his plan, Eren cares about Zeke but won't stop moving forward to reach his.

[@Tyrantofthewind]

Eren doesn't love Zeke, he pities him. There is significant difference. And Eren is able to forcibly eject Zeke from the memory because Zeke is losing control of the situation. It is a battle of wills and Zeke's is faltering.

[@Timtomjg]

I think that Zeke is the one who shuts the memory down. He was the one who initiated the walk through Grishas memories, and I think once he heard his dad’s shocking warning, he pulled the plug on the memory out of the panic wanting to exit that whole situation. He’s so shook he just fell down out of disbelief while Eren of course had the collected smug look, because he knew exactly what was going down. IMO

[@kartikeytyagi2330]

@@Timtomjg yes exactly this, it was zeke backing out of pure shock n terror cause in the next episode you can see that Eren wasn't done, he said "you haven't even seen the part where I eat Girsha" So it was Zeke backing out not Eren throwing him out.. Also Eren is allowing Zeke to get a closure because he's also trying to break Zeke's will to fight so that he can't continue with euthanasia plan

[@SeanTanktop]

yes, insanely powerful

[@crozecamp]

Zeke is the one who ejected from the memory. He had the founder and Eren was taunting him with the fact that they had skipped the memory where Eren inherits the AT.

[@youngrootv]

The basement twist was huge but this twist cemented AoT as one of the best things I’ve ever read/watched. This blew my mind when I read it in the manga for the first time. Also Grisha’s voice actor is hands down the best in the series. He gave an award winning performance 🤯

[@tx6723]

The performance was insane S tier

[@youngrootv]

@You alright boi ? I mean we knew from day 1 that there was an outside world but we didn’t know the scale of it. I read the manga and we had to wait literal months between chapters with nothing to go off of so it was surprising to read when it dropped for the first time. With the Mikasa thing, I think it was a weird plot point that didn’t really need to be in the story imo. She’s badass without some BS power

[@rei8949]

remember when the owl told grisha to build a family inside the walls? that was no random suggestion, this episode is implying eren staged his own birth 💀

[@elheber]

Maybe. It's also possible Krueger just saw glimpses of Grisha's memories with a family within the wall.

[@blackaxe2428]

​@elheber yea, Eren made Krueger see those memories. His point still stands.

[@areopanda1664]

If you rewatch Eren talking to Zeke about what Grisha did to the royal family, Eren says he was disgusted by Grisha’s actions. Eren was upset not that Grisha attacked the royal family, but that he was unable to.

[@Sir-Bane]

Last episode Sean, you thought Zeke had out smarted Eren. After this episode, we learn Eren was playing past, present and future 4D path chess all at once and winning. Also, Grisha's VA. 👏👏 👏

[@UnlistedAgain]

I don't really see Eren playing particularly good chess here. He just knows parts of how the future goes, so he tries to follow the path he thinks leads there. But he's still going to get outmaneuvered at times (like with Zeke or with Marley's surprise attack).

Eren was creating this new future by changing some events .He didn't take there titan powers so they could stop him and become hero . Eren was above everyone and in the end he made right decision not Alliance

[@ICavalcadeI]

17:34 To Morgan's point, the speed at which Eren resorts to violence is not by any means normal. He's had a normal, boring upbringing his entire life up until that point. No 10 (?) year old should be capable of that level of aggression unless they're some sort of psychopath or grew up in a violent, war-torn environment. For a variety of reasons, it took a full episode for the survey corps to get used to the idea of human on human violence back in season 3, yet it was second nature to Eren. Obviously Isayama was trying to convey that Eren's disposition is not something that was forced on him or inherited, and that he was always like this since birth, but Morgan is right to point out how disturbing it should be.

[@paulsanchez7833]

Agree. I understand that it was Mikasa or them and it was the only way but Eren killing two men specially at such young age and never losing a night's sleep over it says something.

[@tayshaunsteele8461]

[@AvereeChaloupka]

I also love how Isayama intentionally places Eren's child-murdering-spree *before* he gets the attack titan. He was like that without any titan influence.

[@JupiterCobalt]

@@AvereeChaloupka Eren *is* the Attack Titan's influence; none of its inheritors would have pushed forward like they did without his memories, including himself.

[@kartikeytyagi2330]

but have you thought about why was he always like this since birth, being born in a peaceful non violent atmosphere he still turned out this way why? answer is Ymir. He's born out of Ymir's hatred n anger that she didn't show infront of anyone but was feeling inside all along. She was waiting for someone like him, this hatred of hers took 2k years to come on surface as Eren.. 💀💀

Krueger wondered whose memories those were, so he didn't know the full picture of what the Attack Titan could do. The words he spoke were word-for-word what Grisha told Eren when injecting him, as Eren remembered in the episode he saved Armin and Mikasa from canon fire. Krueger could have been recalling Grisha's memories of explaining how to turn into a titan.

[@Ivy94F]

Wasn’t Kruger the one who explained the ‘secret’ of the attack titan to grisha in the first place? How could he not know? I just thought he was saying he didn’t know who’s menories those were because he doesn’t know who the future inheritors are, but he knows that there are future inheritors.

[@elheber]

@@Ivy94F He didn't explain the secret. If he had, Eren would have known about it before losing Historia's hand. Instead, Kruger just alluded to it. Grisha would have to figure it out on his own as he was being tormented by visions sent by his son.

Eren can choose which memories he wants to show the past Attack Titan inheritors, that's why when Grisha was screaming at the end, he said "Why won't you show me everything? The wall being destroyed, & the day it happens. If Carla is safe." Eren is strategically sprinkling these memories to Grisha, manipulating him to do what Eren wants. When Eren kissed Historia's hand, that moment unlocked all the memories for him, that's why his whole demeanor changed. Initially he became depressed in the last episode of Season 3, while everyone was celebrating seeing the ocean for the first time, Eren was the only one that seemed off. Then in Season 4 he just outcasted himself. From the moment he kissed Historia's hand, he knew everything that was going to happen, but just not in detail (stuff like Sasha dying), he just knew what he had to do from that point on. This episode was so good, I was mindblown & glad I wasn't spoiled. Lol

[@nupreview]

Eren was the child Grisha wanted in Liberio, and Zeke was the child he wanted in Paradis. What a tragic life did Grisha had, smh

[@janejanejaney]

I never thought of this before. Damn, Zeke could've had the childhood he dreamed of

[@kaial7058]

True

[@Shadowrendx]

A cool thing that took me a few watches to get is that everything Grisha is seeing through the memories is from Eren’s point of view. So when Eren is staring at him he’s essentially seeing himself in 3rd person, and whenever Grisha could see and hear Zeke it was because Eren was looking at Zeke

[@Wuffskers]

I'm glad morgan brought up Eren killing people as a child because it can sometimes be brushed off as anime exaggeration but this episode pretty much solidifies that no Eren is kinda psycho and this is just the kind of person he is, that wasn't just a one off weird thing for developing our otherwise noble hero, our protag is kinda psycho

[@justinb7494]

Exactly lol. When his actions are pointed out it's always "well he did what he had to do" when that's not even the issue.

[@Scrumshiz]

Eren's chains from the previous episode have a new meaning by the end of this one. He's a prisoner of fate unable to change the path he was on from the beginning. Looking back, it's interesting how the episode that revealed Grisha killing the Reiss family is simply titled 'Sin' without alluding to any specific person.

[@daniaaal]

[@oiijupiter]

19:12 it's really Eren "sitting there", the only reason the Attack Titan can see the future it's Eren, he's able to move freely through the paths after he gets Ymir's power. it's not really the attack titan power if you stop to think about it, Eren just manipulated all the attack titan holders (his father for example) to get him on the right path, it's specifically Eren's power

[@gokay6476]

Like Eren manipulated all the Attack Titan holders in the history... Wow

[@ayete6465]

Yep it's kinda weird when you think about how marley never found the attack titan even though it was right under them, then how kruger chose a failed spy to go into the walls all by himself to retake the founding titan knowing that even marley couldn't.

[@katonryuka]

it was actually the attack titan + royal blood power, cus just the attack titan couldnt do it, sadly Eren didnt liked to hold hands with Historia more often

[@emppa3138]

So few things to point out. - It is possible that Eren and Zeke spent years in Grisha´s memories. - Grisha didn´t "see" Zeke himself, he saw at Eren´s point of view, thats why he began to look depressed. Becasuse he all ways knew that the future Attack Titan is watching his every move (this is why people theorize they spent years in memories).

[@duckymcswizzle537]

Eren is the reverse of king fritz. Fritz goes forward to influence future shifters while Eren goes back. The details in this series is amazing.

[@vsGoliath96]

Grisha and Frieda are there for no other reason than to act as vessels so two people, one years in the future and one dead for a century, can have a debate on the nature of sin and freedom.

[@thesmackdragon]

I'm with Morgan. Eren relishes in the extreme, and I feel like that's what she's trying to say about him. He in no way questions himself going full violent in any scenario regarding vengeance. Killing the traffickers wasn't something most of us lost sleep over. I think what shocked us was this literal kid who took pleasure in their deaths and didn't think one more thought about it. Idc who you are that's disturbing, especially for a child who's had a decent upbringing; and I think that was the point. When he turned into a titan for the first time, once again, he was relishing in the destruction. When he was fighting Annie at the end of season 1, he said, "I will destroy everything." Correct me if I'm wrong on that or if it was a translation thing. But yea, I definitely see her point that he's always been like this from the very start. From ep 1, y'all have told Eren he needs to chill. lol

[@Reu8enofleon]

Exactly. The decent upbringing part. It’s very subtle but it’s a huge clue to Eren’s innate horrific nature despite his environment. I see him as the inverse of Levi. Levi’s environment would design him to be violent yet he’s very much a caring and sensitive soul.

[@hrodebrt]

welcome Sean to the "did Eren actually make this happen" club

[@mackowalk2456]

There's no question that this episode is the greatest and most confusing of all. Still I have something to point out. 15:10 Every time Grisha was able to see Zeke it's because he was seeing from Eren's Point of view. Because Eren was seeing both his father and brother, Grisha could hug his older son. ;) Great reaction! :)

[@Kpm1989]

[@tris273]

The moment Isayama got prices for Season2 Episode 6 ''Warrior'', as one of the best written/produced plottwists ever - he already wrote the ''Memories of the future'' and ''From you 2000years ago'' scenery that changes the whole paradigm of storywriting. Aot started 2011 and there Grisha already watched at grown future Eren in Chapter1/Episode1. That, for me, makes aot the best show to rewatch :D The whole 1-3 Saga are completely enchanted through all the foreshadows in like every episode and introductions to future Storycircles.

The Reiner reveal plot twist from Season 2 looks kinda cute now, doesn't it? We all thought that was the craziest shit ever, but this is so much bigger. The whole show started because Eren wanted to do a global genocide to free the Eldians on the island. If Eren didn't push his dad to steal the Founding Titan, the Marleyans wouldn't have sent the Warriors, and Eren's mom wouldn't have been killed, and Eren probably wouldn't have grown up to be someone capable of doing a global genocide. It's a full circle.

The Attack Titan can't change the past. The only reason it could do anything in that moment was Zeke enabled it by taking Eren on the walk down memory lane. The Attack Titan can just act independent of a linear timeline in that one moment because Grisha and Eren are both the same single entity-the Attack Titan. Eren didn't really change the past, the Attack Titan just did what it always did in a non-linear order from our perspective. Also I don't think it is about "Eren accessing Grisha" or anything like that...more like the Attack Titan picks and chooses what future memories to reveal to the past inheritors of the Attack Titan. The way I understand it is essentially the Attack Titan is in itself a separate individual with its own intentions and it hijacks every inheritor to make them do what it needs them to do to reach its final goal....a goal Eren's iteration of the Attack Titan seems to be fulfilling...

Just a wild theory. Eren woke up crying in the very first episode of AOT. Could he have seen all these events and the ones to come as a nightmare so he woke up crying? I don't know if its possible since he only got the titan form afterwards but the memories are all connected and present time Eren can traverse through the memories and he showed those memories to the past Eren. 🤔🤔

Morgan hit it on the head. Yes, when we saw Eren saving Mikasa we were like "fuck yeah", but when you think about it it's chilling to think a child around 8 just planned and killed humans just like that without hesitation.

Eren is that one villain whose backstory and reasoning for why he's doing what he's doing is so good, it'll trick you into thinking he's the main hero.

Well, absolute power can corrupt absolutely, but if power is not used to protect the people, it is also useless. Goes both ways there King Fritz.

[@vsGoliath96]

I think the craziest thing about the argument between Grisha and Frieda is that it's not even them arguing. It would be more accurate to say that its a throwdown between Eren years in the future through his father, and King Fritz a hundred years in the past through his descendant. The time in this show is all sorts of crazy fucker.

[@SenseofNoneYT]

For me personally, I didn't think the Attack Titan can go back and change history. It's just that they have access to memories of the past and the future, which gives them so much information on what to do. However, in this episode, we should remember that the place they are currently in is the place where all paths converge. Past, present, and future kind of connect to that same place. Eren doesn't have that power without the royal blood involved. Attack Titans having access to future owners' memories combined with Eren being in a place where all paths converge (including Eren's and Grisha's) made it possible for him to influence Grisha in that time.

[@multifacetedcalamity5387]

Diamn are they binging all the ep in one sitting

[@sajanilbh26]

I think Eren is controlling what Grisha and to some extent Kruger sees so that no one does anything drastic to change. The story has to unfold exactly this way to get to the ending. I think present Eren can see glimpses of the future but again future Eren is controlling it.

[@elheber]

I don't see it that way. IMHO, all that Eren knew about the future is what Grisha talked about at the church. Neither Eren nor any other Attack Titan can see their own future. They can only see memories of their successors. Season 3 Eren only saw this church scene through Grisha's eyes, and S1 Grisha saw parts of that church scene through S4 Eren's eyes (thanks to Zeke's royal blood memory shenanigans).

[@mohmedhassan6875]

22:30 im not sure if the bast attack titans knew about the ability of changing memories bcs they probably were controlled by eren crouger said after mentioning armin and mikasa that he didn't knew the person that send this memory

[@elheber]

He didn't know whose memories they were. Personally I think it's actually Grisha's memory from when he was about to inject Eren and telling him how to transform to save Armin and Mikasa. Literally word for word what Grisha said in S1 when Eren first transformed on purpose. And who knows, maybe that Grisha had already seen memories of Eren needing to transform to save Armin and Mikasa.

I'm so glad I can finally say this and it not be a spoiler, Thank you for being the only reaction channel to realize Eren was a fucked up kid and a murderer from the beginning instead of looking at the earlier moments of the show with rose tinted lenses. Eren is a freaking sociopath, and I am so happy that I'm finally not the only one who already knew Eren was gonna jump to genocide from the start (I mean c'mon, he has basically chosen violence as the immediate solution to pretty much everything)

I never understood why they didn't show Eren's thoughts right after he ended up killing a whole bunch of people when he fought Annie inside wall Sheena, i didn't read the manga so i don't know if they are gonna touch on that, but i find it strange that no scene was made showing Eren feeling conflicted or something

[@ICavalcadeI]

Part of it I suspect is because Eren is not fully conscious in his titan form until he fights Reiner halfway through season 2. He's mostly in a blind rage up until that point. The "reification of mankind's rage" as it was once eloquently put by Mikasa.

[@gokay6476]

@@gokay6476 But i think it's still off putting to the audience seeing him and his friends not mentioning or thinking about it when it happened, Mikasa talked to Eren when he attacked Marley but it wasn't the first time he killed innocents, as if Isayama decided to not touch on that and ignore for a moment without giving a justification why
