Okay, let's talk about Attack on Titan Season 4. Specifically, how many episodes it actually has. Because honestly? It feels like we've been waiting for the ending forever.
The "Official" Answer
If you Google it, you'll see the "official" answer. It claims Season 4 has 28 episodes. Seems simple enough, right? Wrong!
This is where things get messy. The season was split into parts, creating confusion.
The Problem with "Parts"
Seriously, who decided to split it like this? It's like they're trying to torture us! We're emotionally invested, and you break it up?
Each "part" feels like its own mini-season. We get a beginning, a middle, and then BAM! Cliffhanger leading to another wait.
Part 1: The Beginning of the End
Part 1 gives us 16 episodes of pure chaos. Marley is introduced, and the war is brutal.
We see Eren go rogue. My man went full anti-hero! It was wild.
Part 2: Even More Chaos
Then we get Part 2, with another 12 episodes. Things escalate quickly.
The Rumbling starts, and the world is in danger. Like, "end of the world" danger.
The "Final" Chapters
Oh, but wait! It's not over! We get "Final Chapters" which are technically, just movies that aired on TV.
Each film is basically a double-length episode. Adding more confusion to this whole saga.
My Unpopular Opinion: It's More Than 28 Episodes!
Here's my hot take: it's more than 28 episodes. Hear me out!
Those "Final Chapters"? Those are basically episodes. Long episodes, but episodes nonetheless.
So, if we count those films as separate entities, we're closer to 30. Maybe even 32! Don't @ me.
The Great Debate
I'm sure this is a point of contention. Some will say the films are just extensions of Part 2.
Others will say each split should be considered a separate season. Honestly, I'm starting to lean that way myself.
Ultimately, Does it Matter?
Okay, okay, maybe the exact number doesn't really matter. What matters is the story.
Attack on Titan's ending was epic, emotional, and definitely divisive. We still talk about it!
Regardless of how many episodes, it's a wild ride. One I'm glad I experienced. Even if it made my brain hurt a little.
So, How Many Episodes? My Final Answer...
Fine. I'll compromise. Officially, it's 28. But in my heart? It's more. It just feels like more.
Maybe I'm just trying to justify binge-watching the whole thing again. Who knows?
Now if you excuse me, I'm going to go rewatch it. And this time, I'm counting every minute!
Remember: The number of episodes might be debated, but the impact of Attack on Titan is undeniable!
