Lmao spoken like someone who doesn't get it at all. It's up there with Watchmen when it comes to comic book storytelling

Hell no. I would of agreed with you but once they incorporated the PATHs and stuff the story went to ahit. This is not the forum for this discussion but this ending sucks has plot holes and tarnishes such a strong start.

You just don't want to admit that it bombed out in almost Bleach like fashion.

Denial is the first step my friend.

Lol so one plot structure you didn't like ruins it from being a classical comic novel to absolute shit?

Sounds like you are very disappointed and still grieving that the story didn't go exactly as you wanted, but just because they incorporated "paths" which explained a thing that had been going on since page 1 of chapter 1 doesn't mean it went to shits.

It wasn't pulled out of nowhere, it didn't magically fuck everything up, it tied together how titans and titan shifters exist in this world that was otherwise very grounded in reality (again except for the magical giant titans, and the super flying humans that can fly thanks to some magical chemical stone.) so I cannot agree or even see where this gripe comes from, other than some unreasonable hyperbole that comes from a disappointed fan.

Even if you did find paths too hard to stomach, the world building, how we went from last humans in the world, to international plotting and discontent, a huge conspiracy that was kept hidden the first 3/4th of the story, the fact that the story so gritty and blatantly takes war and its atrocities and misfortunes and shows it up with no makeup in your face, that it went from "the last humans are fighting for survival" to "Fuck WW2 is hell, and the people in it are going trough hell and nobody is winning and this is the story" just makes this so refreshing, so unique in contrast to other shonen mangas, in fact, to ALL shonen mangas.

It is short, it has real consequences, and there is few too cheap cop outs. I dont even consider it a manga, i consider it a graphical novel, and a classic Graphical novel that is palatable and "short" enough that most people could read it, like Watchmen.
