The Greatest Finale to the Greatest Show in Television History
5 November 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This finale is the greatest episode of any show I've ever seen. It absolutely exceeded my expectations. I already loved the ending in the manga, but the anime elevated everything to a whole different level. The animators went all out and delivered by far the best animation in the whole show. The OSTs used are absolutely beautiful and fit every scene perfectly.

Eren's conclusion is a masterpiece. The scene with Mikasa beheading and kissing him is my favorite anime moment of all time. The adaptation in this scene in particular exceeded everything I hoped for.

The Rumbling is depicted in a terrifying and dark way I've never seen before in any anime. Everything being black and white except for the baby is art at its finest.

I also love the dialogue changes when Eren and Armin talk for one last time. In the manga, Armin thanks Eren for turning himself into a mass murderer, which is a bit unfitting to Armin's character and led to a lot of controversy. Him instead thanking Eren for showing him the outside world is a lot more satisfying.

Attack on Titan is my favorite show of all time and now it also has my favorite ending in all of fiction. It's perfection from start to finish without a single bad moment in the entire series. This has been an incredible journey and I can't thank everyone who worked on this project, especially Hajime Isayama, enough for creating this masterpiece. It's really hard to say goodbye to something that has changed my life forever. This is truly the end of an era.
