edited after the last volume officially came out
Had a couple paragraphs praising this series when the ending dropped but after reading through all the interviews and stuff, I don't think it deserves it.
Chapters 1-123 were really amazing and I loved the series more than anything, but if you are gonna destroy it all in a single arc, it's better to not finish it at all or take a hiatus to really think about your 11 years of work.
Isayama created something great, or atleast well above average, but to end it so bad that it retrospectively made the entire story worthless is truly admirable and some
...
might think he did it on purpose, like he stated before, he wanted to betray his fans. But he acts like this was really the story all along, not a dark series with interesting themes and MC, but a tragic love story and MC that only acted he had character development, but in reality he was someone, who he never really was from the beginning?
Delving deep into the series after it ended uncovered some really lazy and bad things in the series that I think I just overlooked back then because I saw it as a "masterpiece" in making, as a lot of others did, but I don't want to think about this shit series for too long and neither do I want to make this too long, so I will just cut it here.
Stay away from this series if you are lucky enough to not watch/read it yet, or end your reading on chapters 90 or 123.
If you are a future writer, I fully recommend it to see how not to end a series.
Gave it a 3 instead of 1 because I really loved it in the good times.
Hope Isayama opens his onsen soon so I can take a shit in it.
