Though riddled with contradictions over the years, Isayama’s message of a future dependent on remilitarization seems clearer than ever. Lacking consistency within the narrative framework of the series, the final spats of exposition rapidly unfold, with the ultimate chapter devoting a flashback sequence to Eren disclosing his plan to Armin sometime well before the final conflict. Despite the intention of protagonist Eren Yeager, whose goal was to become history’s villain in order to unify people and achieve superficial peace, the Eldians come together under his name and dub themselves “Yaegerists,” remilitarizing their country in the years after Eren’s death.ĭuring this time, Armin Arlert, alongside remaining members of the now presumably disbanded Survey Corps, are on their way to discuss peace with the Eldian leaders. Somewhat predictably, a petition emerged on to change the ending of the series entirely.Īttack on Titan ends with the world at the cusp of a literal race war, with the Eldians and Marleyans seeing no true solution other than to remilitarize and kill one another until only one group remains. Some fans took to Twitter to insist that the story is one that discourages war and remilitarization while others lamented that the plot lacked a proper conclusion, even comparing it to the lackluster reception of the finale of Game of Thrones. While many viewed Hajime Isayama’s story as having a fascist subtext all along - incorporating real-world parallels to the implementation of concentration camps and even stalwart nationalism within its body of work - it took the creator’s final pages for many readers to buy the argument. The coda is a tangle of images, sprinting past plot points that go unresolved to illustrate heavy-handed imagery of war and peace, and leave the manga’s legacy muddled. The final panels of the manga jumped years after the Rumbling, focusing on a plot conceived by series protagonist Eren Yaeger to effectively enact genocide on the world at large.
