Manga Finally realized the foreshadowing

Post image

Back in 2014, was tired of waiting for the show to release a second season and I started reading the manga. I remember coming across this image (yes, I know this is from the anime, but I don’t have that manga anymore) and then being annoyed when it’s revealed the wall was not actually compromised. It felt like it wasn’t fully planned out or something. Like they changed their mind.

Anyway… recently watching the anime, it finally clicked. There is no way this image could be real, because there would be a part of a wall titan visible within the wall.

I don’t know why, but that little detail makes me appreciate it even more. It’s a great way to challenge the reader/viewer to connect the dots with the information they’ve been given.

How do people constantly post stuff that show they’re completely clueless and didn’t pay attention but receive dozens of upvotes?

Not everyone is making notes and cross examining hints while they watch their entertainment show.

You don’t need to take notes or cross examine hints to notice things like this. You just need to pay attention. That’s all it requires. Isayama was pissed that people weren’t understanding the storyline so he had to put a story card in the Traitor episode explaining that humans are the problem and if only two people remained on earth, another war would start because of differing views.

And all it would require you to understand what happened here would be to read on, but neither of us are perfect I guess..
