Attack on Titan 34
**S
A satisfactory conclusion for an incredible story
It's a bit difficult expressing my thoughts on a story that meant so much to me, but I'll try to get them across the best I can in this review. (SPOILERS INCLUDED)Attack on Titan is responsible in no small part for bringing anime and manga into the mainstream in the modern era, yet its journey played out in a way that wasn't quite foreseen.What started as a high-powered and unpredictable rollercoaster ride featuring action-packed chapters and bombastic dialogue gradually changed to mystery and later dove deeply into political and psychological thriller territory. Just as the story had set that tone and the readers were starting to adjust to it, the manga shifted once again to show an arc from the antagonists' point of view, urging its readers to consider whether the characters they had grown up with were the good guys.What was generally expected to be another addition in the ever-expanding catalogue of shonen manga had completely transformed itself into something more akin to a sober commentary on war and fascism, the consequences those involved at the forefront are forced to deal with, and the cycle of violence perpetuated by the horrors of oppression.The simple conflict between humans and Titans that had defined the story in its early stages barely seemed relevant, as the moral sphere now resembled varying shades of gray. Was this character justified in this action? Was the decision made by another character one morally right? It was largely left to the reader's interpretation, as the story didn't take sides for most part.The final volume of the story concludes it as a Greek tragedy. While violence and conflict continue to persist, there remains hope for humanity to find the solution. Will the future be one of hope? Or despair? Time will only tell.There are so many things that I loved about this story, but the one that stuck with me the most was the world being cruel but beautiful place. Despite how bleak and unforgiving it could be, its the serene moments that stick with me the most.Eren wrapping his scarf around Mikasa. Historia telling Ymir her real name. Armin's expression of wonder on finally reaching his dream of seeing the ocean. Levi's bittersweet farewell to his comrades. And my personal favorite, Carla telling Keith that it was fine if Eren wasn't special. He already was great, because he was born into this world. Tragically, Eren's own twisted ideal of freedom was the thing he could never be free from. His own life burnt to ashes outside the walls, which he could never fully escape.

A beloved manga series comes to a end.
I love this series so much, from volume 1 I was hooked and to see it come to an end bring a tear to my eye. Reading Eren, Armin and Mikasa's adventure and discover the truth about their world was amazing to see. This has one of my favorite power-system in manga. Isayama's writing is outstanding and the foreshadowing is genius. He deserves all the praise from the millions of fans and I that loved the series he created.

PEAK (also pain)
Absolute Peak. To me, nothing compares to Isayamas work. An amazing ending that for the first time had me in tears over a book. (You will love it I promise.)

A Harrowing & Heartbreaking Conclusion to a Modern Epic
Our surviving cast comes to terms with the choice they have to make in order to save the world from the person they called their closest friend. Never in a million years would I have been able to predict Attack on Titan’s painful, but incredibly poignant ending. Easily one of the best series I’ve had the pleasure of delving into. Dedicate Your Heart. Forever.

Read other volumes first
From my 12 year old son: if you haven’t read the other volumes it will be confusing.From my 10 year old: it’s very sad.Both say 5 stars.

Finally get closure when your tired of the anime having back to back 'last seasons'
I dont usually read manga but I was so frustrated with the anime prolonging the ending and teasing us with back to back 'last seasons'. Just be up front geez its so annoying. Anyway, this will give you the closure you need that way you dont have to constant anxiety on if the next 'final season' is the ACTUAL 'final season.' Just in case you want to do the same as me, you will need this one along with the one before it (issue 33). The quality of the actual book was perfect. Still processing the ending.

The part where Levi see's the dead scouts and "cries" hits hard💔. The little stories at the end I love. The aot school castes was funny but also pretty sad😭. Anyways 1000000000/10. Also this is a sign to get a wings of freedom tat ;) It's gonna look so cool animated omlomloml😫 Sad to finish this though... Isayama you did an amazing job tha k you for this <3 T_T
