I like the detail that while Ymir was chased into the tree terrified of being torn appart by dogs, the kid at the end is walking in full of what looks like wonder and curiosity side by side with a dog as their companion.

Eren proved that "This world is not a better place"

At least Mikasa and all Eren's friends, maybe even their direct descendands, lived their life in peace.

The fact that the whole island had to be nuked is proof that the nation was not only stubborn but successfully stubborn. I imagine that many conquests of the island had been attempted, and had failed.

If they had to continue, the next series will be called Attack on Titan: Fallout lmao

I remember one of the opening lines from the OVA _Gundam Wing Endless Waltz_ : "As long as mankind exists, there will always be battles."

This is truly a "war.....war never changes" moment

A circle Never ends

thats one hell of a sturdy tree

''Human will continue to fight each other until the day when one human lefts'' -Erwin Smith

If We Win, We Always Live But, If We Lose, We Are Died However, If You Don't Fight, We Can't Win. FIGHT! FIGHT!

"Our names won't be remembered if we die like trampled flowers. I refuse to be forgotten, written off as less than worthless." - English Dub of Opening Song #1 "Guren No Yumia." I think I just recently realized those lines foreshadowed Eren's final fate of his tombstone being erected without his name, leaving everybody except his friends to forget who he was, thus leading to the destruction of Shiganshina that we saw during these end credits of the final chaper special. What deep foreshadowing.

Pure eren....pure mikasa....pure soldiers.... Pure people/humanity.... You fight for nothing.... You die for nothing.... People still figthing .... and we will got again titans....the boy at the end , probably is the new "ymir".... Sad , you sacrifice your people, you lose your life.... for nothing...you suffer for nothing, but you re heroes....(like in real life , like real wars).... Omg , it is a masterpiece.... My honor

Man this ending bring a powerful message

After the battle between Heaven and Earth the founding Titan was destroyed along with all the titans it has created including the 9 titan shifters as well. Armin and the others saved what was left of the outside world. Eren destroyed 80% of humanity that was wiped out by the rumbling after he died. Leaving only 20% that survived. Which means the rumbling failed to wipe out the outside world. So the Eldian’s will do what they always do…is fight. They will keep fighting tell they’re free from their enemies. A world with no titans now. As time went forward Mikasa laid Eren to rest under the tree where he will be buried. She was left heartbroken after he died but he wrapped her scarf around her neck one last time. As the years passed Mikasa, Armin, and the others lived a life in peace on the island and continued on with their lives in peace. Mikasa continued to visit Eren’s grave and gives him flowers as she moves forward with her life and started a family of her own. Later on the districts that surrounded the city begins to expand now that no walls or titans will keep them isolated anymore. The Eldian’s are free to expand. Mikasa went to Eren’s grave one last time as she grown to an old woman. After that she passed away peacefully with the scarf wrapped around her neck. Once Mikasa and the others were all gone the Eldian’s continued to move forward into the far future as the population grew more bigger and stronger. After so many years of peace on the island the world was eventually restored and came together and joined forces to destroy the Eldian’s. So the Eldian’s of Paradis did what they’ve always do. Fight for freedom. As the war continues on we see Eren’s grave was slowly being swallowed up by the tree over time and later the sky rained down missiles on the island to destroy the Eldian’s once and for all. When the war was over the Eldian’s were eventually been defeated then a young boy who survived the chaos of the war. He ends up finding a tree that stood taller then any other tree in the forest. The same tree that Ymir found from 2,000 years ago. History repeats itself once more.

That dog will become the new founding titan

“Peace is Temporary…War is Constant…”

He wasn't a villain. He just simply wanted to end the cycle of wars and pointless suffering

After Eren Yeager Died, This Cycle Will Also Keeps Repeating Many Times Since Mikasa Ackerman Died In Old Age

Floch is unironically proven right

I like how eren finally got the walls down so they can have freedom

Thank you for posting this HQ version of the credit!

It's finally in HD! Thankyou so much for uploading this!

The world is rebuilt and ushers in a new era that lasts for centuries until it ends with a world war. Now the titans will return. Its a never ending cycle.

This is really beautiful, with the song, it makes me want to cry 🥹.

"war never ends"

«Attack on Titan: Next generation»

I want that boy be the "next ymir", but maybe fo 5 years later from now, so we can feel the nostalgic feels so down deep 😢 all love hajime

It took me until today to realise the boy at the end was walking towards the EXACT SAME opening in the tree as Ymir back then. You gotta be joking. It was all for nothing.

0:15 🪦= 最愛のあなた ここで永遠の 居眠りにつく

Idk why but at the part with the young boy at the end, the setting just screamed NIER at me lmao.

GOT COPYRIGHT 😔😔 Please Subscribe 🥺

In the end, Jean is the only one whose dream came true

In general, one of two things: either Eren, because of his indecision, failed his "mission" and everything for which he and his friends fought, without negotiating with the Marlians and at the same time not achieving them to the end, or he saw something in the future that made him do just that, and in no way otherwise, and then it was not Eren's fault, but the author of the anime, because he did not even show what the main character learned, which made him reject all adequate options, including the euthanasia of the Eldians, the complete destruction of the Marlians, peace negotiations between paradise and the whole world (with proper policy, they had good chances) and probably there are many other options not mentioned that would be much better than what he did.

4:24 there is a worm like creature on bottom left screen pocking it’s head and looking at the tree. Tell me that’s not hallucigenia…

I like that at the end of the post credit so far they do the beginning of the 1st opening

I'm crying. Thank you, AoT ❤

People who don’t like this ending, don’t understand humanity.

Mikasa grew to old age and died, that’s at least 60 years alone right there, and thats before the development we see. Cities don’t grow or build fast, the world population was decimated by 80% The amount of time necessary to regrow the population, to then construct the infrastructure to house them and then to expand at THIS incredible scale, a tiny dirt village like Shiganshina to epic skyscrapers? Lets be real, we’re talking 700 to 1000 years have passed here not 100+ like on other forums and reddit, the world was ruined by the rumbling, economies completely shattered, infrastructures in woeful states, people broken, scattered and going through insane levels of PTSD? That’s generational, that takes a significant amount of time for new generations to rebuild and progress forwards, and it takes decades just to start any sort of healing from the initial calamity that took place. If we look at real world Europe, which was devastated after WW2, it took significant effort and support from other parts of the world to reestablish a baseline for them to reconstruct, now here in AOT, it’s going to be that much more insanely difficult with 80% of the world. Consider, you go outside and roughly everything you know is in ruins for as far as you can see and travel, nowhere in your life time will you see advancement, just your generation struggling to pick up the pieces and put somethings back together while attempting to survive on meager resources at the same time, cause there’s no grocery chains, or tool manufacturers or supplies readily available, and the surviving infrastructure is going to be stretched thin helping who it can.

If hate and conflict does of keep existing then the peace that humanity screams for want will never do of be And will be doomed of repeat the same actions on an endless cycle

I don't think the cycle would repeat again if the hallucygenia was destroyed.

The only enemies we all have are rich, they make us fight each other so we don’t fight them 😢 we don’t end war war will end us! ❤

フロックやエレンが正しいとか言ってる人は何にも分かってないんだよな フロックもエレンもアルミンもハンジも、結局は振り出しに戻そうとしただけで繰り返す事に変わりはない ただ人類はその中でも歴史と知恵を積み重ねて進歩し続けるわけで。いつかこの繰り返しを止める事ができるかもしれない それが進撃の巨人が伝えたかった事

Humanity's existence was always full of contradictions: to achieve peace, we prepare for war; to appreciate living, we must learn death; to embrace hope, we must go through grief and sorrow. History repeats not as a cycle but as a spiral - some things remain the same but circumstances change. The only thing that makes a difference in the future is our decision to either have faith for the better or succumb to our worst nightmares.

The same thing may happen again... But the ending doesn't have to be the same...

Crazy that the cycle will just continue again over and over, titans will never truly go away

The couple @ 2:04-2:09 is Mikasa and Jean and their baby, the same baby from Jean dream. The people @ 2:15 is Mikasa and Jean with their Child own family

Mappa executed the scene perfectly, I hope I can enjoy this in cinema

I like the detail that the tombstone gets swallowed up by the tree because that’s realistic, that’s what happens when trees get super huge. I haven’t seen the series but the animation looks amazing.

Truly shows how powerful the source of all living matter (the parasite) really is, it technically as a species or creature continued for hundreds of thousands of years, like a seedling from an ancient tree

"All of this has happened before. And all of this will happen again. "

Peace creates war, war creates peace its a cycle, a curse.

Rest in peace Mikasa and eren

Este ending nos deja una reflexión bastante importante y es que "La guerra nunca terminara hasta que la raza humana sea extinta para siempre" . Los humanos tienen por naturaleza autodestruirse a si mismos por lo que nunca aprenderemos de nuestros errores del pasado, ni de la gente que dio su vida por un mundo de paz.

One of the best anime.

This never had to have happened, had humanity set their differences aside! Sounds like the real world, doesn't it?

I kind of hate the idea that Mikasa (the most powerful human character in the show next to Levi) spent rhe rest of her life crying over Eren. Eren was wrong to want Mikasa to not move on for 10 years.

This could be our future.

The End of an Era.

War, Peace, Revolution. The Endless Waltz of existence… Seems that Attack on Titan and Gundam Wing have something in common…

Those are Jean and Mikasa's kids. Nothing will ever change my mind!

On the bright side it is obvious that Paradis at least managed to nuke who ever nuked them, so mutual destruction.

I think the one thing no one ever mentions while eren is technically dead his remains still had to witness the destruction of the island and I think that’s a cruel irony that even though he fought so hard to save them in the end at most what he did was postpone the destruction of Paradis, and while the boy approaches the tree gives a somber yet hopeful turn of things I think that Eren still having to witness the destruction of Paradis was the hell he landed in.

I, m proud for you eren, hange, Sasha, Erwin, porco, 😢😢😢😢😢

That post-credit scene is f**king bleak. Basically, ultimately, Erin accomplished nothing. The wheel comes 'round again. Humanity didn't learn a thing. We're a doomed, f**ked-up species. Yes, Erin's friends got to live out their lives in peace, free from fear of the Titans. Hooray. The Titans were never the real enemy, though, were they? Merely the shadow of all of humanity's hatred, bigotry, and destructive cruelty. Erin's goal was to prevent Paradis from being destroyed and (maybe) eliminate all Titans. A few thousand years later, where are we? Paradis is destroyed, and the Titans are about to return.

reminds me of Gang of New York ending scene.

And he also proved sometimes in life you have to become the bad guy the villian This world is not for the weak

"Ah sh1t here we go again!" Johnson, Carl.

And thus, the cycle began a new.

Im crying right now😢😢😢😢

Post credit scene: ''The titan power will be repeted again'' Everyone: ''A masterpeace will never be repeted again''.

A beautiful ending but Cruel🥺😢♥️🐚

Seid ihr das Essem? - Nein, wir sind die Jäger!

Remember when we all thought them living in the walls were the last of humanity and that they're living in a post apocalyptic world?

It hurts everytime...

I cried watching it 😭

Even if one war ends, another begins. Cycle starts anew.

Oh you all think the boy is going to end up like Ymir but you’re all wrong! The dog ran in there first! DOG TITANS!

Life is like a Circle It never ends

Titan is come in back😢😮

The start of a never ending cycle

War. War Never Changes. Ironic, Iike Humankind Never Changes.

Let´s imagine it is the dog who got the titan power ...

I speculate since it's so far in the future, that this final war that destroy the island of paradise, doesn't mean that eren's effort was in vain Because 1. It has been so far to the future that this war was not because of hatred that the outside world harbor towards titans, and titan basically has become legends and myth instead of history. Eren's effort at least bought centuries or millennia of peace. So he done his job 2. Maybe this war was cause by lack of resources like the modern world. Like less food, overpopulation, oil. Again not because the world remember what the titans was or where they come from. 3. If the final war was started by the people from paradise island, and it was retaliation fron the outside world, it's not eren's responsibility for what had happened. His time has passed. The eldians are responsible for what's coming for them 4. If the war was started by the people from outside paradise island, the only comfort i can imagine, is that the same thing happened to the outside world, and it's a Mutual Assured Destruction. That the outside world are also destroyed completely by nuclear war

❤️❤️❤️

I mean it’s a lesson irl, history always repeats itself

И люди так ничего не поняли и продолжили убивать друг друга... Все начнется заново

History repeat itself 💯...maybe AOT will start again with new story 🥹🥹.....man i love lovee love this anime even I'm in season one's 18th epi 🤧🤧🤧....but I'm speechless 😭😭 i love them all soo much eren, Mikasa, 🤧🤧 deserve better than this😭😭❤️❤️

This make me cry

Y la historia se vuelve a repetir :^ And history repeats itself :^

idk why people say this ending sucks its actually kinda good

HUMANITY FIRST

This got me looking at the wall

Eren was right after all

Bittersweet Beautiful yet cruel Eren actually proves how people are how wicked and how cruel they are l mean you force a donkey to drink water thats how humans are Humanity can't be saved even if you make a sacrifice still there will always be people who have power Eren proved all has points He wasn't the bad guy

進撃の巨人を愛してくれてありがとう

4:30 I like to leave this ending open lets us hope that history doesn’t repeat it itself and he’ll be taught not to repeat the cycle !

The kid who went into the tree looked like they were just on a hike. They weren’t running m and the dog looked healthy too. I really wonder what could come out of that tree since I think being exploited and having a suppressed need for freedom factored into what Ymir became thanks to the hallucigenia. Maybe the outcome would be completely different for this kid

As long as there's peace, there will also be war... As long as there is creation, there will also be destruction... Ergo one can never exist without the other, such as the cycle. The titans may have been destroyed during Eren's era, but in the course of two myriads of years (which is 20,000 years, I think), the titan race now begins anew because of one lone boy who survived his homeland's destruction, and along with it the people of the new era will have to suffer the same hell their ancestors had endured.

After 50 years Attack on Titan finally ended
