I finally got around to watching the final episode of Attack on Titan. I've been watching that show for years. I say "watching," when I really mean "waiting." I never read the manga (I am largely not a manga reader), so I don't know how it differs from the show. But it was alright. I think my favorite part of the final episode was the realistic ending.
Spoilers
Titans may be gone, but that doesn't mean it's all rainbows and sunshine. No, humanity still fights on, fighting each other. The Eldians on Paradis Island didn't just stop being pro-Eldian, even though they no longer had Titan powers. No, they were still out for blood. The remaining scouts were attempting to to make peace with Paradis on behalf of the rest of the world, but it wasn't shown how that ended up.
Idk, I often like story endings like that. Where everything is not automatically solved and fine. So yeah, it was alright.
I noticed on Crunchyroll there's a new Psychopass movie. "Psychopass: Providence." After GitS, probably my next second favorite series/universe. Both those shows hit on similar topics. So I started that, though haven't finished it yet. I didn't realize it was going to be like a bridge from Psychopass Season 2 and Season 3. But I'm glad it is. I watched Season 3 plus the associated movie earlier this year and was a little confused with the new team of enforcers and the passage of time. So it'll be good to see how it all ties together.
