Summary

The video critiques Attack on Titan's original ending for retconning Eren's character and the story's moral complexity, proposing a detailed rewrite that maintains the series' gray morality and delivers a more impactful, character-driven conclusion.

Key Points

  • Eren's character, defined by his desire for freedom, was forced into an "impossible choice" between sacrificing Historia or activating the Rumbling, a conflict the original ending failed to resolve consistently. 
  • The video critiques Attack on Titan's original ending for retconning Eren's character and sidestepping the story's established gray morality, which initially presented a compelling moral dilemma. 
  • Hanji's death is made narratively significant by her instrumental role in understanding Titan mechanics within Paths, providing Armin with crucial knowledge to counter Ymir. 
  • Zeke's redemption is reframed around his daddy issues, culminating in a final game of catch with Levi and a realization of what truly matters to him, intertwined with his father's memories. 
  • A major twist reveals Ymir as the ultimate antagonist, driven by 2,000 years of suffering and spite, leading her to destroy Paradis and torment the Alliance. 
  • Armin's character arc is redefined, evolving from a "useless" strategist to a "devil" capable of making sacrifices, ultimately outsmarting Ymir to find a way to stop the Rumbling. 
  • The proposed rewrite features a full Rumbling, arguing it provides maximum spectacle and resolves character closure issues by having Eren achieve his goal before the final confrontation. 
  • Annie switches sides to protect her father, forcing her to confront her selfishness and providing a significant plot shake-up that allows for a more impactful character arc. 
  • Eren's final character arc progresses from a manic, stressed killer to a terrifyingly serene individual who accepts his nature and is willing to kill his friends for his freedom.
