Okay, let's talk Attack on Titan. Or, more accurately, let's talk about when the heck it finally ends.
Is it ever going to be over?
Seriously though, feels like we've been waiting longer than it took Eren to figure out what he wanted. Remember when he just wanted to kill titans?
Good times. Simpler times. Before the Rumbling, before the questionable haircuts...
The Endless Finale
The "final season" started in 2020. That's practically ancient history in anime years. Then it split into two parts. Okay, fine.
Then those parts got their own sub-parts! It's like a Russian nesting doll of endings. Someone please make it stop.
We're now at Attack on Titan Final Season THE FINAL CHAPTERS Special 2. I had to look that up. My brain hurts.
My Unpopular Opinion (Brace Yourselves)
Here's my hot take: I think they're milking it. Don't get me wrong, I love AoT. It's epic.
But at what point does "epic" become "exhausting?" Maybe I'm just getting old.
Or maybe I'm just impatient. But come on! Give us the resolution already!
So... When Is The End?
Alright, alright, enough ranting. We all want to know the magic date. When can we finally put this titan-sized saga to rest?
The official word? November 4, 2023. Mark your calendars, folks. Set your alarms.
Prepare for the feels. And hopefully, some closure.
But...What If? (A Little Conspiracy)
Okay, hear me out. What if "November 4th" is a trick? What if MAPPA suddenly announces Attack on Titan: The Really, Really Final Season, Part One the day after?
I wouldn't put it past them. The internet would explode. The memes would be glorious.
And I'd probably still watch it. I'm a glutton for punishment, apparently.
Let's be real.
We all are. We've invested too much time, too many emotions, into these characters to walk away now.
Even if we secretly suspect the ending will be bittersweet (or downright depressing), we'll be there.
We'll be huddled on our couches, binge-watching the finale, probably crying into our Levi-themed body pillows.
Final Thoughts (Hopefully)
So, November 4th. That's the date. Let's hope it sticks. Let's hope Eren doesn't suddenly decide to rewind time again.
Let's hope we finally get some answers. Some peace. And maybe, just maybe, a happy ending for someone.
Until then, let the speculation continue. Let the theories run wild. And let's all just agree that Attack on Titan has given us one heck of a ride.
Whether we wanted it to end three years ago or not.
See you on the other side (of the Rumbling... of the ending... of this article).
