Returning after a 10-month hiatus, opening the “final chapter” of this long-running epic, Attack the giant Manages to achieve what some anime seasons, or really any TV show in general, achieve: a perfect hour.
“The Final Chapter (Part 1)” is set in a candy-colored sky, a world filled with giant man-eating monsters that crush anything that gets in their way. Marley’s human civilization is in the middle of nowhere. Not only stopping at the beautiful scenes, the real dramatic highlight of the episode is the surviving members of the 104th training regiment preparing to fight.

The only things standing in his way were a horde of children with swords and vertical maneuvering devices, and several giants who seemed to be on the losing side in most battles.
Attack the giant has long been at the center of controversy, as the tone of the series has changed dramatically since it was first published in Hajime Isayama’s “Battle in Heaven” section. While it’s certainly a philosophical journey that requires patience and attention due to its dense twists, revelations, and betrayals, season 4 is slow-paced and mostly unimportant. for a lot of people, sometimes there are some interesting staccato notes at the end of the opening. While some of these moments have been warmly received by the fan base, including Grisha Yeager’s heartbreaking story told through unfortunate memory, warped by time, the infamous heel flip Attack the giant Allen’s response was bland, like the comic’s equivalent chapter response when it was released.
Animation studio MAPPA has not ignored these criticisms and, as if in direct response to these rhythmic questions, presents Attack the giant The anime moves forward like a well-oiled machine, with deft punches in a dramatic rhythm that makes it feel completely effortless. The standout sequence is of course The Rumble, a gruesome act of genocide perpetrated by a terrifying Allen-like mutant centipede at the head of a swarm of suffocating Titans.

As two boys doomed to flee with their coins hidden, is the image of the mass panic and fear of the Liberians a metaphor for the inhuman effects of communism? Capital and industry? So, is Allen’s turn as a lustful villain as a throwback to the political turmoil he grew up in within the Walled City? While the capitalist system exemplified by Marley produced disenfranchised classes such as refugees, anarchy promoted in Erdia, while also producing soldiers capable of resistance every threat, eventually leading to the establishment of a totalitarian regime with genocidal ambitions.
Attack the giant is a visual masterpiece
In addition to thematic depth, the many themes of dialogue throughout the episode include love for Anne and Armin, the soldiers’ duty to work together to make a final battle plan, Alan’s free will… revealed his ultimatum and the generational impact of hatred. When the last general of the Marleyan army lamented the cruelty of his people to the Eldians, it was one of the most vivid and lavish displays in the animated series.

However, in contrast to this traditional heroic epic is their historical cost, the events in this story, they all became innocent killers in the course of senseless war. Even Amin, who was once wide-eyed and optimistic, now admits to killing hundreds with the power of the giant giant.
It is this finished product, brought together through thematic coherence, honest emotions and eye-opening action, that creates Attack on Titan: Final Chapter (Part 1) An anime milestone that all others should aspire to.
