Yes, that all happened only a few episodes in, and it didn’t let up throughout the rest of the episodes.
Eren manages to get through to Ymir and convince her that he can stop the cycle she’s been stuck in and finally kill those who enslaved her, and sure enough Eren not only turns into the Founding Titan but activates the much-talked about (and sung in a heavy metal opening!) Rumbling, leading a large army of Colossal Titans across the sea towards Marley. She had three children and those children were forced to eat her remains so her Titan power could continue to be transferred, hence the whole “Children of Ymir” thing. We get a brief flashback to Ymir’s story, as she was a simple girl whose village was taken over by Eldians and one day fell down a hole near a tree and encountered a being that gave her the power to turn into a Titan, the first of her kind. Zeke tries to show Eren the error of his ways via some flashbacks but ends up only seeing their father in a new light, and then finds out that Eren’s Titan transformation has allowed him to influence the past and he has actually been manipulating events for some time now, to the point where his own father Grisha somehow sees Zeke, apologises for leaving him behind and pleads with him to stop Eren as he’s seen the future via the same Titan power and Eren’s plan will succeed. Hmm… not exactly a much saner plan, but there you go. Now what happens next might belong in the spoiler section, but not only does it happen in the first few episodes but it’s right there in the opening, both visually and in the lyrics, so I’ll talk about it! Zeke and Eren do manage to touch (just as the latter is decapitated, long story…) and the two half-brothers get to spend some time in a weird side-dimension known as the “Paths” that’s exclusively available to the children of Ymir… and in fact is home to Ymir herself! Yes, the original Titan from 2,000 years prior to the story has spent all that time in this side dimension, apparently crafting Titans and watching.Įren reveals that he isn’t on board with the euthanasia plan and instead plans on killing everyone who isn’t part of Paradis as the only way to make sure his friends remain safe.
Meanwhile Zeke survived his confrontation with Levi (who is also seemingly alive, but barely) and arrives in time to assist Eren and try to touch our protagonist and set off his transformation into the Founding Titan. Giant naked blood bath brawls! That’s what Attack on Titan is all about. human war again, though this time on “home soil” in terms of the viewers of the show, so it had a bit more impact. While he’s doing this his traumatised friends are eventually released when the invading army begins to turn the tide, though the prospect of assisting Eren after all he’s done doesn’t immediately sit right with most of our cast (apart from Armin, who is as naively dedicated as ever, despite his earlier beating) but seeing their home island reduced to ash is even less appealing so they agree. The show wastes no time in picking up where the previous third ended as Eren takes on Reiner and Porco in a three-way Titan battle after the army from Marley invaded Paradis just after our main hero turned on all his friends and seemingly jumped on board a plan that would see all his people euthanised. So after a delay of a month or so let’s finally get a review up!
Attack on titan episodes 87 full#
The second third of the Attack on Titan’s final season was full of fun plot twists and really delved deep into the lore of the series, so much so that despite me poking fun at the “Final Season” now being three seasons long I’m happy they didn’t have to rush anything. Attack on Titan’s final sea- … oh, right, the second half of Attack on Titan’s final sea- … Oh, okay then.
