[@BandannaDann]

Just so you guys know, this episode covers 4 chapters, 131-134, not 2 chapters. It's just that they decided to split up this animated special into two 'chapters' -- 131&132 was the first 'chapter,' and 133&134 were the second 'chapter.' So all that's left to cover is chapters 135-139, which is 5 chapters, and we're guessing it'll take a little longer than an hour to cover all that.

[@__Krystal__]

This ⬆️

[@momame8258]

They didn’t adapt 134 fully tho. The first half gonna be in the next part probably

[@slobertooth1358]

80 percent of that chuck of chapters is just action, they'll fly by that.

[@patatebanine4278]

Also, they removed a dozen of pages of the chapter 134. We will probably see those pages (Historia's maternity and the rumbling 2.0 with the baby scene) in the cour 2

[@imshubhajit]

134 not completely... They did 3.5 chapters total... The next TV special should be 1hr15mins in length or slightly more in runtime, that's all that is required.

[@AppleBaron]

I feel like a lot of people missed it, so I just wanted to point something out: the elderly couple at the jail in Liberio were grandparents of Zeke and Eren. After Zeke betrayed Marley, his grandparents obviously lost their titles of honorary Marleyans and were thrown into prison.

[@AlejandroMeridaDropTheLimits]

fkn true

[@sebastianvilla2413]

The greatest 🙌

[@martfp88]

The thing I don't see mentioned often and I think it is at the absolute core of the show is that it isn't even about Eldians, everyone so concern about the Titan problem and how to end that, but without Eldians, humans will find other ways to be in the same position of hate and destruction. This is why characters like Armin gets it, it is about empathy, coexisting and constant dialogue, there is no single solution you execute to magically get long lasting peace, it is a constant effort.

[@DNephilim]

It is easy to put blame on a common oppressor. Remember WW2? who was the bad guy for everbody? Nazis. But that doesn't change the fact that "good guys" sent two nukes to a country and wiped away their citizens. As long as humanity exists there will always be conflict always people with no empathy and lust for power, this cannot change. So the solution is to wipe out or control a race that has the power to oppress others very easily, like becoming a Titan. So the only solution is to wipe out one side so everyone would be in equal grounds even if there is conflict in the future...

[@aureliamonap]

The oriental woman, whose name I don't remember, said that too. When floch told her they were getting rid of all their enemies she said they would still have conflicts, they were just "shrinking the world".

[@wordsoflove8787]

[@AvatarTheLastPodcasters]

People say Eren is in the wrong but never come up with a solution that doesn't result in the Genocide of Eldia. There is no right or wrong, there is only your perspective. The point of the story is to communicate before it comes to this.

[@upvotecomment2110]

[@Abhinab_Roy]

No Spoilers This 1-hour episode adapted 4 Manga Chapters not 2 So S4 Part 3-Part 2 will adapt remaining 5 Manga Chapters, therefore a 1.5-hour special episode will be enough

[@neardarkroad1347]

Eren VA, Yuki Kaji tweet the next part is the last time. so, yes, we will finally have freedom in the fall.

[@neardarkroad1347]

@The Normies, if you are aching for anime that gives almost same dread as AOT, try 86. Its have the same composers of AOT final season, Sawano and Yamamoto. -they have similar common enemy that threaten the whole world. - they have conflicting moral dilemma -they have badasses - sadly, their version of "TATAKAE" is not from protagonist but the antagonist.

[@sickleweed3270]

Hange made me cry a lot but honestly my heart is most broken for Levi, who lost everyone he loved and cared about and as humanity's strongest can barely hold his gear now.

[@dariusradu2369]

To answer Marketa's question, fighting and action scenes are adapted way faster than dialogue heavy chapters due to their fast pace. For example, you could turn AT MOST 1 and a half chapters of heavy dialogue Into a 20 minute ep, while for the action heavy ones, you could even stuff up to 3 chapters per episode sometimes.

[@erikstrickland96]

Very true. I was thinking the exact same thing. While this battle will be extremely cool, it can’t be longer than half an hour or my eyes would fall out 😂

[@evgenkhersonets880]

It depends on the manga also. If it's Jujutsu Kaisen, for example, then it can be up to 4 chapters of action per episode. But if it's JoJo, then the pacing is gonna be faster.

Thank you Mappa y’all made me cry watching this 🥲 y’all did Hange Justice. I love Attack on Titan!!

[@thelegacyofgaming2928]

Wit and Mappa created a masterpiece

[@SwiddyDiddy]

Fun fact: the Marleyan continent is actually…Africa! The AoT world map is our world map but flipped upside down, and Paradis is Madagascar. You can see this in this episode in the flashback when Yelena is showing Eren where the Marleyan airship base is. It’s Africa upside down! Another side note, this is interesting because their world history is also “flipped” compared to ours. The Marleyans are essentially the old Romans, and the Eldians are the old Germanic tribes (this is evidenced by their last names…Marleyans have Italian names while the Eldians have German names…food, culture, and in the Ymir origin flashback, their military uniforms.) In our world history, the Romans conquered and enslaved the Germanic tribes, however in this “flipped” world of AoT, the Germanic tribes stumbled upon the power of the Titans, and subsequently won those wars/battles against the “Romans”. There’s a whole lot more trivia to this show, especially pertaining to Norse mythology, but this comment is long enough already.

[@mrottaku]

This episode adapted from chapter 131 to 134, some scenes from chapter 134 were missing that I believe were left for the next episode, so there were 4 chapters, only 5 chapters were missing.

[@mohamedelhediissa289]

I don't think we will see most of the 134 rumbling We got new scenes to make up for it and as of now we already got past that point, it will be weird if they stop everything to go back and show more of the rumbling (especially when they already showed alot like burning bodies, decapitated heads and limbs, crying children, babies and families and suicide and people fighting over a car I feel like all of that makes up for everything 134 has to offer except like the baby scene)

The Parallels of Eren and Reiner confessions. Annie and Mikasa moment. Eren’s Actor killing it as always. It been a pleasure watching it with you Manga readers, anime onlys, anime-day oneers, newbies, and more.

I love how I can't predict this story there was no way I saw Hange taking out more than 2 colossal titans in my mind because of the thunder spears but holy shit was I proven wrong what an absolute true commander Hange had become shouldering the weight of her people in a single moment as those before have just wow the technique needed the power momentum and rotational force of the 3D manoeuvre gear to slice a colossal titans nape and damn MAPPA WENT TF OFF!!! absolutely GOATED 🐐

The ending Akuma no Ko kinda explains Eren as a whole. He's been fated to start the rumbling since birth and he cant change it. He was born to become a devil hence the song's title being Akuma no Ko (Child of the Devil).

[@MishaHusnainAli]

Well, the world made the Eldian and especially the Paradis Eldians "the Devils" by treating and calling them that. Eren is the child of the devil/evil, so that hatred coming back to reflect on those who have been serving it. Absolutely out of line killing billions, but still he's the product of the world he was born in.

5 Chapters are remaining to be covered and they alone contain the Greatest animation required more than the whole Season 4 so It'll definitely take time to animate. That's why we will have to wait again for 7-8 months and I'm Damn sure the Last Episode will be 1hr 30min at least. The whole Mappa team has my Respect for dedicating their heart and providing movie level animation in this fkd up schedule 🛐

[@SchoolVideosGoHere]

1:06:00 It's worth acknowledging Annie's point isn't just giving up to depression. It's a pretty fundamental question: I'm tired of killing people and fighting. Why should I go kill and fight for a world that will likely kill me after that? Keep in mind Marley treats Eldians _better_ than everywhere else in the world. Given she believes her father is already dead, you can't really blame her for not wanting to get involved in stopping Eren's omnicide when she honestly thinks that it will just lead to a genocide of the Eldians.

[@reaperandyel]

Eren is answering the morale question of killing 1 close person or many strangers. And he chose the 1 close person. Annie spent years inside a rock, now the world is about to end most likely and she thought her one and only family is dead ... Of course she just want to spend her last bit of time in peace.

[@peruvianbv]

They covered 4 chapters in this first part 131-134. There are five chapters(135-139) left to adapt in the last part unless they decide to change things(aoe). That being said this special was so good and the Hange sacrifice had me in my feels. Waiting until fall is way too long

[@kevindharmani6495]

y'all say that you would go with the zeke's plan but then the world also wants Paradis' resources. They will never leave them alone

[@waltz4life]

I like to think that the scene from the first ep was future Eren trying to show his kid self everything that was going to happen, maybe to try and see if that would give him enough time to find a solution to change the future. But kid Eren was only able to interpret it as a long dream, even tho deep down he was crying because of what his future self just showed him

[@Wade8419]

I think Chris's interpretation of Eren's freedom within the time stuff is the best. It's only predetermined because he knows he'll want to make the same choice again.

29:32 Suraj's reaction to Eren's "Tatakae!" here is golden lol. Was anticipating this specific reaction the entire time. 😂

[@TheSageFlare]

"Why Eren, why couldn't you do a soft rumbling?" Because the soft rumbling relies on Historia breeding kids for the sole purpose of slaughter in order to maintain the power of the Founder? People always seem to forget that.

[@lumi3333]

They also forget the whole problem of the world becoming to advanced for a rumbling to even be productive

[@bigbywolf1330]

Exactly. A soft Rumbling as what the fifty year plan was suppose to do. Cause financial issues but blackmail the world. It wasn’t gonna stop and technology was advancing. Given this set in the early 1900s based on technology, decades after you have jets, tanks, increase numbers of battleships, submarines, or a nuclear bomb. All that will leave the Rumbling obsolete.

I cried too when I watched chapter 1. It was so heartbreaking. The destruction of rumbling, all those people dying, the kids and Hange. But at least we got to see all the fallen scouts/veterans. Shinzou Wo Sasageyo!!!

[@kairostimeYT]

*Key things to note for the next part: (No spoilers below)* 1. That initial scene with Mikasa saying goodbye was in the first chapter of the manga but for some reason, it was removed in the anime version. 2. Note that Eren doesn't have a definite "overarching" reason to initiate rumbling. He just saw bits and pieces of the the future where he would initiate it. However, no matter how many options he tried out, things happened exactly the way they did in the memories at the end. Just like all the other founding titans across time (the royal family, ymir, etc.), he too was a slave to time. In a way, you could think that time used Eren and all the other founding titans in the form of hallucigenia to change its own course; free will doesn't exist in AOT universe. 3. Eren doesn't know the specific details behind his memories. For example, Eren saw that one golden flower with blood spilled over it in one of his memories. Well, that could be that flower with his mom's blood when she died, flower present during Hannes' death or flower Ymir Fritz looked at when she was severely wounded. So, he has to live his present out to deduce which time he is at, since he has most of the memories from the start to the end, in a puzzling fashion. He might not be able to recall his memories in the moment accurately either. This is starting to sound more and more like dementia now. 4. Every eldian is connected to another if they are close enough in some way (through blood relations, contact or rarely mere thoughts). This is why people can even unlock other people's memories (especially in the case of titan shifters) but we saw Falco seeing visions of soaring across the sky in S4P1 and Reiner getting random visions of Falco and Gabi in Paradis. Historia saw Ymir's past and her being eaten by porco galliard just by touching the letter. Porco unlocked Marcel's memories by touching Reiner. 5. _"It's as if all the Subjects of Ymir are connected by something we can't see. One inheritor said they saw paths. The blood and bones that form a Titan, and at times, even memories and thoughts are sent through those paths. All the paths cross at a single coordinate. That's the Founding Titan. Every single Subject of Ymir is connected to that coordinate."_ Mikasa, Armin, Jean and Connie cannot just run towards Eren and get to that single coordinate because they are not founding titans. Paths transcend physical space and time. 6. In "Two Brothers" episode, when Eren enters the paths, he sees memories of various different things; some which are not even related to him. In one such memory (if you pause it at the right moment), he saw Falco using modified Jaw Titan flying to Fort Salta. 7. The ending credits is clearly about Mikasa. We saw black screen at first. Then, we saw Mikasa walking slowly over a patch of grass with rocks and pebbles here and there. Then, with Mikasa walking in the background, we saw a tree on a hill. We can infer that she is walking "towards the tree on that hill". This happens to be the title of the final manga chapter. I doubt this is a coincidence. 8. In an episode called "Outside the Walls of Orvud District" (from Season 3), you could see Eren's skeletal titan form for the first time; I think that it was supposed to be a vague representation of a future memory. 9. Eren's titan is the best environment for vertical maneuvering equipment; it is even better than forest of tall trees because not only can they up the tall pillar-shaped bones but they can go under the bones too, which allows so much versatility. This is why the team dodged Beast Titan's shots easily this time around and defeated it quickly. I feel like Zeke's Beast Titan is not a S tier titan but a low A or a high B tier titan because you need to set up circumstances for it to win. Otherwise, it will struggle landing its shots. Also, it's not particularly tanky either.

[@neontyler6663]

[@User-s23-m937sqrz]

Hanges scene almost brought me to tears and I haven’t cried in years 😭

[@ICavalcadeI]

48:00 I think that Eren does not necessarily experience all timelines at once until he merges with Zeke. Before that, he was only experiencing glimpses into the future. That's why he says "*most likely*, I save this kid" because he knows Ramzi appears in a future memory. He's already been shown that the future cannot be changed, because every single choice he makes brings him to another point in the memory, regardless. Whatever Eren "chooses" to do is what was always going to happen. Isayama is not just conveying a story about determinism, he's created a tacit rejection of a libertarian notion of "free will". More specifically, the idea that a person is the "author" of their own thoughts and, all things being equal, could have chosen option A just as easily as they could have chosen option B. In the case of Attack on Titan, every "choice" that Eren will make leads to a predetermined conclusion, because every choice that Eren makes is not of truly of his own volition. It's not truly of anyone's volition. If Eren had chosen to not save Ramzi in that instance, that's what was supposed to happen anyways, because in every timeline, Eren makes that same choice no matter how many times the scenario plays out. I also love how thorough Isayama's theme of "everybody's a slave to something" permeates throughout the series. He created a character so free that they're a slave to freedom itself. All of this is happening because Eren literally cannot accept the world trying to take his freedom away, even if he's fully aware that the better option might very well be for Eldia to perish instead. Incredible.

Wat would you rather do?

[@johanneseiche664]

Chris, Suraj Navi, marketa, Micky! Around 10:30! The attack titan = shingeki no kyojin =進撃の巨人 「進撃」means advancing/charging in the context of a battle rather than attacking specifically, so the nuance is lost in the translation. There isn't much that the translators could've done unfortunately. The "Charging Titan" doesn't sound nearly as good as the "Attack Titan", and it doesn't have the broader meaning that the Japanese word does unfortunately 「の」 means of, 「巨人」 means titan But attack is usually 「攻撃」 not 「進撃」 in Japan. 「攻撃」, 「進撃」 and 「巨人」 are Chinese characters and have meanings on their own. 「進」 means advance forward, go up, improve, etc. 「攻」 means attack, learn 「撃」 means beating, attacking 「攻撃」 means attack. In Japan the attack titan means kogeki no kyojin, means 「攻撃の巨人」 but the creator, Isayama, chose to name it shingeki no kyojin! It is difficult to translate shingeki no kyojin to English. The name of the Titan and the name of the show is: The titan who attacks to advance forward. That Is the more correct meaning.

Been waiting for this!!! This episode was tremendous...I don't even remember the last time a show made me whimper out loud, and ofc so much crying. Can't wait to relive this ep with you Normies!! Also can't wait to do it all over again with the dub crew!

[@11Ky]

I think people are forgetting that this is a war The World declared war on Paradis in the first part of s4. Eren and Paradis spent a couple years trying to make peace prior to that. But in the end the World decided to take Eldians out. Eren only has a couple years left to live at this time and Paradis still never found away to make peace with the world. Like when Hange said they failed to give him another choice. Which was hinted in ep10 of s4 when Eren was in prison and he asked Hange if she had any other ides on what to do. And that led to Eren doing what he's always done rather letting the world take his family's freedom he took their freedom first. A lot of people say do a partial rumbling but it wouldn't work because if you remember they attacked Marley in the first part of s4 that was suppose to hold them off for months but they came back in 2 weeks. The outside world was developing fast so they had way more knowledge then Eldians so they would've responded quickly. I think he's doing it to become the catalyst of hate so that they would come together and stop him. Which is why I feel like he wants Eldians to stop him so that the rest of the world would respect them giving he's family true Freedom.

[@LordVerdo]

Everyone is always horrified by Eren here but… as you said, “they caused this”. Exactly.

[@Cerrano9008]

Finally got an understanding of why Falco is a Bird type titan. He's a mix between the beast titan and the jaw titan due to Zeke's spinal fluid that got in his system. Which explains why he can see Zeke memories and such...

[@greendragon4870]

Man,so much respect for Suraj for acknowledging Floch and his motivation. He fought till the end for his country !

[@lightbringer34]

The Rumbling is the original definition of “awesome”. Great in its power, terrible in its existence, the kind of thing that had people falling to their knees and struck dumb, that had angels saying “do not be afraid.” Equal parts horror and awe. A primordial expression of power that by all rights should not exist. Poor Ramzi, he didn’t deserve this.

[@TheBGExperience]

Watching Marketa silently cry even before Hange takes off since she knows what's coming 😢

[@Shinigamibraggo]

The quiet smile of acceptance when she shows up with thunderspears

[@fanita91]

for example when even sees the kid getting beating he doesn't save him right away because he was trying to change the future by not saving him. but he makes the choice to save him and reaffirms his belief that the future cannot be change. he also does it with mikasa last season when he asks her how she feels about him knowing what her answer will be and hoping she will be truthful.

[@14s0cc3r14]

That’s the tragedy of the show. Eren always wanted “freedom,” but as soon as he gained the power to see the future he realized nobody could ever really be free. Their world is predetermined on one path to one future, there is no free will.

[@jasonginnard3712]

RIP Ramzi, Halil, Hange, Floch, and literally everyone else in the world

[@PoPo-qp8zq]

Remember that Eren didn't hurt anyone until the whole world declared war on the island, and in war you don't stop and say it's too far, especially when you're wining

[@IshkenJD]

I used to think that too

[@tsukki1126]

I cried my eyes out for Hanje, she’s my favorite and everything but- the way my eyes dried for Levi’s expressions.. how many times did he had to see his friends and fellows dying 😭 if you think of it, Hanje was the last close friend he had but she died. Levi is going through so much sadness

[@kowsermia4156]

Many Of Us Already Knows Hange's Manga Spoilers, But Still Seeing Animated this as so Badass way to send her off, goosebumps, chills then i cried like a baby!! That's AOT!! That's Hange for us!! Who Dedicated her life for others... # RIP Hange ♥♥♥

[@SamirSiraj8542]

I love how eren got them questioning their morality

[@amberxv4777]

wow, their reaction to the rumbling and Ramzi was very genuine and relatable. I love Marketa's reaction to Hange. I usually have the same reactions as her.

[@ozyssah]

BTW this actually covered 4 chapters and there are 5 left to be adapted, so we are looking to be good for another hour and half or so special. Also I really hope there is not anime original ending, the manga was NOT rushed and the ending is good, it just didnt go the way some ppl wanted it to so they just pretend its terrible throwing tantrums bc its not what they wanted.

[@cameronweaver2013]

IMO, some parts could have been fleshed out more or worded better. But I do think it ended in a suitable way.

[@Closetorouter619]

I agree we don't need an original ending. The manga ending is good. BUT it was rushed. Especially the last two chapters.

[@nkft1]

It's just like the last of us part 2, people don't like getting something that they were not expecting. But IMO the ending suits perfectly to the whole thing.

[@ozyssah]

@@cameronweaver2013 i agree that it could be more fleshed out and definitely agree some things need better dialog

[@HotLeafJuicer]

Holy fucking shit I have never been this hyped watching any show besides like Arcane and ATLA

[@DrawingPicture]

I really like that we get some of Eren's thoughts again. I really missed that for the first two parts of season 4. Knowing something of his state of mind gives a whole other dimension

[@chasingfelix3609]

Suraj is such an AOT fan and I love it.

[@sudarsanp998]

20:24 no dictators would cling to a ship all the way and even being injured would try to save the his people and motherland till last breath , he was just a determined, patriotic soldier and i will always respect him for that

[@chessnerd1055]

Floch and Hange both fought until the very end for what they believed in...RIP

[@jackakimbo5718]

In the former's case, the P stands for Piss.

[@sudarsanp998]

​@@jackakimbo5718 u just didn't understood floch character

[@bowserfera]

for me, i TOTALLY understand both Eren and Annie's decisions (AND Reiner's prior suicide attempts). You see, the show presents us various characters with various motives and personalities, and with all the events that happened, various depression facets. Just like cancer, there isn't just one type of depression, there's many. and maybe there are even more than the DCM-5 can register, and will register. and that's because human behavior is probably one if not THE most complex and deep thing to understand. when we see Eren's response towards his depression, trauma, and cruelty/deception towards humans, he totally gives up his WHOLE humanity. all he is able to feel after he gave up on ignorance is hate, disgust, and regret. and on his final act, all he wants is to have a glimpse of the one thing he always dreamed about: freedom. rejecting all humanity's cruelty, he wipes out everything that's making the world the way it is: humans. i think there's much more to think about each one's decision upon facing all the trauma and disorders. Annie has seen all sorts of things and has been subjected to EVERY possible exploration in any kind of way. I can only comprehend just a fraction of her fatigue. one thing every person has to understand is that, as well as human behavior is EXTREMELY hard to understand, one should never have concrete preconceptions about someone's suffering. everything is debatable, and every personality in every single person is constantly changing. annie went to the fight to save the world just to realize later that if she never have been born, she wouldn't be part of the human's cruel nature. and by that, i think i can agree that yes, Zeke's euthanizing plan made sense, but don't think that Eren is wrong. ignorance indeed is a bliss, and as we can se throughout our history, many of the philosophers and geniuses had some sort of mental decease. i don't think the world (human world) was made for someone to be self aware, and we can go even deeper in the thought saying, just like many "conspiracy" theories, that the REAL state that a human has to live to understand the whole complexity of human existence, is pain. only by giving up on human expectations such as religion or a "will" to live is when we can finally understand the world's existence as a whole. and i think Eren, Annie, and Reiner pretty much understood all that. Although unlike Eren, Annie and Reiner found comfort within other people's sufferings. but i think Eren, with all his experience and trauma, thinks he has the responsibility to make things better for the few people that he still cares, his family.

[@7daimeHokage]

I almost caved my chest in doing the salute when Levi said Shinzo sasagye and again when I saw and heard Erwin

[@XTheCrystalBeastGuyX]

We all know what Erwin would say in a time like this... "Just another day for the Survey Corps!"

[@Solaris_Paradox]

Chapter 139.5; After Mikasa and Armin stop the rumbling sparing 20% of humanity which Marley later repays Paradis back by dropping war bombs on Shiganshina and the extermination of all Eldians out of bloody revenge. Eren and the Survey Corps all died for nothing, Floch and the Yeagerists were right along. The entire world was the true enemy outside the walls and never wanted peace.
