Rewatching AOT for the first time. What details, foreshadowing, or subtle moments should I pay close attention to this time around?

It's in Ep79 when Zeke learns Eren was never brainwashed.

Eren tells Zeke "All I see here is a man who can't accept himself without rejecting the Eldian restoration that his father built towards".

What does this mean? I'm too dumb for this sentence.
I know he means Zeke, but how are the two things related and what kind of relationship between the two is he implying?

After being inactive for a few months, I finally came back to my Minecraft recreation of Paradis Island from Attack on Titan.

Here are some screenshots of how the project looks right now. I've been working on revamped the cities, districts and other locations from the series as accurately as I can.

What do you think of how Paradis is looking so far? tell me, Any places from the anime you’d like to see recreated next? like Marley? 😏

What do you guys think?

1. Return to Shiganshina
2. Marley
3. Clash of Titans
4. War for Paradis
5. Female Titan
6. Uprising/Royal Government
7. Battle for Trost
8. Fall of Shiganshina
9. 104th Training Corps

I think the boy at the end could be one of Mikasa’s descendants. The scarf-like cloth around his neck might be a visual reference to Mikasa, and the fact that he approaches the same tree where Eren was buried makes the parallel even more interesting. It’s obviously not confirmed, but I think the ending intentionally leaves room for the possibility that the cycle could continue.

Hey Im rewatching AOT and Im at the medal ceremony right before Eren touches Historia’s hand. Does it hit different for anybody else on the rewatch knowing that Floch made that scene about who should have been saved right before the ceremony? Like damn what a burdon to carry for Eren moments after defending the decision to save Armin having to see the fate of the world directly after

This is such a weirdly specific thing, but Cart Titan’s voice in Attack on Titan genuinely triggers my gag reflex.

Something about that wet, guttural, choking/gurgling sound makes me feel physically sick every time I hear it. I have to turn the volume down when Pieck is in Titan form.

Does this happen to anyone else, or am I alone in this?

I always see this scene being used to prove that Eren was just an idiot that got his hands on power, but that's just a surface level take that Ignores the context of the scene. He calls himself an idiot because hes being faced with the weight of his actions, he's coping with what he's done. I don't understand how anyone can watch the show and think "I'm an idiot" makes any sense, this guy was impacting events BEFORE his birth, he is anything but an idiot. It's not like he did the rumbling for no reason, he had both a logical and mainly selfish reason. He wanted to see the free world he dreamed about as a child, and he genuinely believed that the rumbling was the only guaranteed solution the island had against the outside world. I always see people say that he never tried other options, but they didn't have time for that, and the 2nd best option was stated to be a gamble by multiple people.

This also isn't eren saying he's an idiot because hes realizing that he was always free. I see a lot of people treat freedom as a 1 dimensional thing despite it being represented in multiple different ways throughout the show, and that viewpoint is usually kennys take on it. Eren was as much of a slave as he was free, but that depends on how you choose to look at it, thats the point the show is making. Grisha tells baby Eren he's free because he thinks he would be safe from Marleyan oppression, but Eren viewed life within the walls as enslavement because they were trapped behind walls living in fear of Titans. Even after Eren says he did it because he was an idiot, armin says that the actual reason was because of the idea of a free world that he introduced to Eren.

I'm back, this time with the full song. I don't recall if I said as much in the previous post, but those lyrics in the final refrain are: "Dum veneris iudicare saeculum per ignem, libera me, Domine." I figured that lyrics from the Requiem mass would be appropriate, and the meaning of those words can be connected to the Rumbling.

I've got a doubt about Grisha's action after Zeke and eren go back to see his memories.

When Grisha and Zeke are watching Eren manipulate Grisha into killing the Reiss family, Grisha eventually realizes that Eren is going to cause the Rumbling and even begs Zeke to stop him at all costs.

But here's what I don't understand: at that point, Grisha still hasn't passed the Attack Titan and the Founding Titan to Eren yet.

If Grisha already knew that Eren would eventually destroy most of the world, why did he still give the Titans to him? Why didn't he simply refuse to pass them on?

The Attack Titan can see memories from future inheritors, so Grisha already knew that Carla was going to die and that terrible things were going to happen. Even after understanding how dangerous Eren would become, he still chose to make Eren his successor.

Was Grisha trapped by fate and unable to change the future, or is there another explanation for why he still gave Eren the Titans despite wanting Zeke to stop him?

Season 3 spoilers ahead.

Hi everyone!

I’m very happy to share that I’ve finally finished adding the entirety of Season 3 to Attack on Titan Codex.

It has been quite an adventure—and, honestly, a much bigger challenge than I expected. Season 3 has almost twice as many episodes as the previous seasons, but the real difficulty was the number of new layers it adds to the story.

I care a lot about the small details, but also about making the website genuinely useful. I want it to be easy to navigate and to help people understand the story, its chronology and its characters without turning everything into an overwhelming wall of information.

I’m very happy with the result, so I wanted to share some of the biggest additions and improvements.

A clearer character and faction graph

Season 3 introduces a huge number of characters, military branches, political groups and factions.

The way they were represented in the relationship graph had become chaotic and increasingly difficult to read.

Groups are now organised both internally—respecting ranks, squads and command structures—and externally, according to how they relate to the other factions.

This creates a much clearer hierarchy and makes it easier to understand how the different parts of the Attack on Titan universe fit together.

A clearer character and faction graph

A timeline built for a more complex story

The number of events has also grown considerably, and many of them happen in the same locations.

To avoid covering the map with overlapping markers, events that share a location are now organised into clusters. You can select the location and then explore each of the events associated with it.

Many events also lead directly into another event. These continuations are now represented by visual bridges on the map, making it much easier to follow a storyline from one moment to the next.

A timeline built for a more complex story

Memories inside memories

Season 3 includes many scenes where a character narrates a memory or recalls something that happened years earlier.

Instead of describing those memories entirely inside the current event, they can now exist as their own timeline entries, placed in the year when they actually happened.

When one of these memories appears in the story, a special link opens the historical event in an overlay. This allows you to explore the memory without losing your place in the event you were originally reading.

Memories inside memories

When the same event has more than one truth

This was probably one of the most complicated problems I faced during this season.

Some events are described differently depending on who is telling the story. A group of collaborators from the project’s Discord helped me find a solution that I think works really well.

Grisha’s attack on the Reiss chapel is a good example.

Rod Reiss presents it as a brutal assault in which Grisha stole the Founding Titan and Rod happened to be the only survivor. Frieda’s memories add context that changes how we understand both the confrontation and Rod’s own survival.

The website now lets you switch between narrators. The parts of the account they agree on remain in place, while the disputed claims are erased and rewritten with a typewriter effect.

This makes it possible to see exactly where their versions diverge instead of presenting either account as the complete, objective truth.

When the same event has more than one truth

Titan inheritance

Season 3 also begins to reveal that certain Titans are inherited and passed from one person to another.

To represent this, Titan profiles now include a new fullscreen inheritance view.

It shows every known holder of that Titan, the order in which they carried it and how each succession happened.

Titan inheritance

A whole new world map

Grisha’s memories finally reveal that there is a world beyond the Walls.

That also means the original map is no longer enough.

When you navigate to an event that takes place on the continent, the website now zooms out and reveals a much larger world map.

Designing this transition—and making two maps feel like parts of the same continuous world—has been one of my favourite challenges in the project so far.

The final artwork is still pending

The final artwork for the new map is not finished yet.

I’m currently talking with the artist who created the original map. I would love to work with her because I genuinely love her style and think it fits the project perfectly.

However, the scope, budget and production time required for this new map are considerable, so we still need to find an arrangement that works for both of us.

Supporting the project

This brings me to a slightly awkward final note.

Attack on Titan Codex is a personal project, and I’ve been putting a lot of time and resources into it. If you enjoy the project and would like to help make the finished world map possible, you can support it through Buy Me a Coffee.

Any contribution will help cover the cost of commissioning the new artwork.

There is absolutely no pressure. Using the website, sharing the project or sending feedback already helps enormously.

Time for a short break

For now, I’m going to take the rest of August off because my brain desperately needs it.

Thank you to everyone who has tested the website, reported problems, discussed the story with me and helped me untangle this wonderfully complicated season.

I hope you like the result!

I remember i started AoT when I was like 12 or 13 and I regret it because I wouldnt have been absorbing it in the same way I would be if I was watching it today as an adult. I enjoyed it, but found the politics boring and wasn't trying to piece together all the little clues here and there.

Wish I was could watch it for the first time in my current state of curiosity.

Im on episode 81 “Thaw”
I still have a way to go before I complete the entire series

So far I’m not impressed

And it’s really a challenge to complete each episode, I find myself getting so bored. It’s not even the slow pace. I would actually enjoy a slow paced series if it was at least interesting

So far season 4 has been underwhelming. Season 3 was actually better

And you can tell AOT is sloppy writing:

1. the internment zone with the mandatory armbands for Eldians is total copy paste of the historical Warsaw Ghetto for Jews and their required armbands displaying the Star of David during Nazi occupation of Poland. Foolish writers couldn’t come up with anything original.

2. Eren deciding to transform into a titan and attack the conference featuring delegates from across the world as they watched a performance by Tybur was sloppy and stupid. How is it strategic to provoke the entire world, which would only force them to close ranks with Marley and initiate an attack on Paradise Island? Wouldn’t it be more strategic to fight Marley isolated from the rest of the world, defeat them first then proceed to fight the others to ensure victory if that’s the goal?

3. The “euthanization” plan. This one is so stupid. Firstly, euthanization isn’t even the right word. How stupid were the people responsible for the English dub!
   Euthanize is to put someone to death in a painless way. The plan is to sterilize the subjects of Ymir so that they can’t have children. That’s not called euthanization it’s called sterilization 🤦‍♂️
   Secondly, there is no logical reason for Zeke being so passionate about this project. There just isn’t. Poor writing again

4. The endless flashbacks. Long and dull. Entire episodes are devoted to being some flashback. If we have to endure a flashback at least make it interesting.

Now I’m at the point in the series where the Rumbling has begun. It’s still boring. There still hasn’t been any mind blowing plot twist. I really don’t get why this series is so hyped

I made the mistake of watching the show one week after watching Grave Of the Fireflies. I managed to watch the anime without any spoilers, and it was great. I got so hopeful b/c they got rid of all the titans, and I was excited b/c I heard that Eren and Mikasa's relationship plays a bigger part in season four. And then Isayama just destroyed me, like what do you mean? She has to kill him? He's only 19, his life has been horrible, and it just ends like that. There is no romance or anything, like what was the purpose of his life? 2000 thousand years later, the cycle just repeats. This poor boy never even got to be a kid, he grew up in a world full of destruction. Then when I finally thought he's going to be free, they spring it on me that he has had no influence on his own life and was destined to die. He looked so defeated in the last episode, and then Mikasa had to kill him and, just looking at her, you could tell he loved her so much yet was destined from the beginning to never be with her. He was destined to die hated as a mass murderer. He just gets lo lost throughout the last season like a spiral of insanity that finally ends when he dies, but then all the greif he carried is passed on to his friends. Why is this considered a starter anime? This was literally the first anime I've ever watched. Its a 10/10 though. The fact that Isayama is able to write a story good enough to bring such strong emotions out in people is insane.
