Fans respond to the ending ofAttack On Titan
The ending ofAttack on Titanwas set in stone from the beginning, as confirmed by the author himself. Many fans and viewers remain dissatisfied with the ending.
There were also rumors about the anime original ending, or AOE, which would see Eren not stopping at 80% but destroying all of humanity.
Many people believe that Eren’s sacrifice was all in vain, as it can be seen from the post-credit scene that after some centuries, Paradis gets bombed and destroyed utterly.
Viewers also point out that Eren showed sides he did not have, as seen when he openly admitted his love for Mikasa and his desire to be with her and not die.

What message did Isiyama want to convey through the ending ofAttack on Titan?
The author’s message for the story was evident: that violence and hatred are inbuilt in humans.No matter the action or consequence, it will constantly be repeated and can never be stopped. Humans will continue to kill each other until one single person stands.
In the last shot of the series, we see a child with a dog who visits the tree where Ymir got her powers from. This could be a way for Isiyama to tease the audience about what might come in the future.
There are many topics to discuss about the ending, and maybe this is what Isiyama wanted from the get-go—to keep Attack on Titan always in the minds of viewers, and he may just have achieved it.
The ending beautifully depicted that the Titans were not a problem; the real problem was and will always be humans, and they will continue this cycle of hatred.
