  11.  @michaelhames6652  The message of the show was laid out perfectly by the after credit scenes. It's a bitter sweet ending, Eren's friends get to live full lives and so do their children and many generations to come, but Eren doesn't . The war and the destruction of Paradis was inevitable even if it became a reality 2000 years after the death of Eren. As for the sacrifice, to me it really was Eren. I came into this despising Eren and wanting him to die for his crimes, yet I came into sympathizing with Eren. Into understanding his reasoning, his feelings and his struggles. I still believe Eren had to die for their friends to live but I was utterly devastated when the moment did happen and it felt like Eren was indeed the ultimate sacrifice. That's masterful storytelling right there. The kids of the heros and friends did live happily for generations to come. The ending happens 2000 years later which is a lot better than the manga ending that happened 80 years later. Every person you saw fighting there was at the top of the cadets. They were talented and skilled and they polished said skills through endless war and fighting. The difference between Levi/Mikasa and them is still stark clear though. As for the people with titan powers being more powerful than their predecessors. It's kind of valid. My own explanation would be that this wasn't their full power but only an empty shell of what they used to be. Gabi's shot was in the end pointless and only aided to the torture of Zeke staying in the paths for thousands of years waiting for Eren to wake up. The "slow" form as can be clearly seen is infinitely more powerful than any titan form. It's enormous and it allows Ymir to create titan shells from it's own bones. And besides that, it's not really slow since it has a far higher true speed than Eren's bipedal form. The bipedal form could outrun it for maybe a few minutes or so with full effort sprinting but that's about it. He didn't save anyone else, because he couldn't. It was predestined. Eren's head was mashed by the elimination of time as well. My only criticism is the lack of explanation on how Zeke escaped the paths and allowed Levi to kill him. It was amazing ending, befitting an amazing show.
