Attack on Titan (進撃の巨人)

There are names given to each of the Nine Titans.

That includes the Titan you will inherit.

No matter which era this Titan has found itself in,

it has ever pushed forward, seeking out freedom.

For the sake of freedom, it fights.

Its name...

...the Attack Titan.

Eren was able to control Pure Titans in the past...

...to escape a dire situation.

If someone with royal blood is made into a Titan that I touch,

it might be possible for me to use the Founding Titan's powers.

But if they knew of that possibility, what would the military do to Historia?

Have a family.

Huh?

Your wife, your child, your neighbors if need be...

Love someone inside the walls.

If you can't do that, it'll only repeat.

The same history... The same mistakes... Over and over...

To save Mikasa, Armin, and everyone else, you must see it through.

Mikasa? Armin? Who is that?

Who knows? I'm not sure...

Whose memories are those?

*ATTACK ON TITAN* Season 03 Episode 22

"The Other Side of the Wall"

Episode Title: "The Other Side of the Wall"

Our enemy is... the world.

But if we announce this to the public, the walls will crumble into chaos.

That's right. We still haven't fully grasped the magnitude of this situation.

Then will we deceive the people again?

You wish to follow the lead of King Reiss

and ensure the people of the walls stay domesticated and ignorant?

If so, then by what ideals did we rise to take the crown from King Reiss?

Let's announce it.

After all, we're just returning the memories King Reiss stole

back to the people a century later.

We all share the same fate as people of the walls.

We must unite as one and bring our entire strength together.

The true identity of the Titans who've threatened us are humans.

They have the same ancestry as us. We are "Subjects of Ymir."

Our King erected these walls 100 years ago.

He then altered our memories using Titan powers

and made us believe humanity outside the walls was wiped out.

But in fact, humanity hasn't perished.

When speaking of Subjects of Ymir, they call us this: A race of devils.

In the near future, the enemy will invade our lands to obtain resources.

Their plans began five years ago with the attack of the Colossal Titan.

I know the article's already published, but... Is this as credible as you make it sound?

At the very least, it's consistent with the doubts we've had this whole time.

I don't want to believe it, either, but it's true.

Thanks.

So? How are people reacting?

It's a bit of everything.

Some accept it. Some laugh it off.

Some lash out at the military and insist it's a conspiracy theory.

As all of you feared, it's become chaotic.

Yeah, but there's no helping that.

The reports are what put food in our mouths.

The taxpayers decide what to make of it.

That's one thing we're doing better than the old King.

I couldn't be any prouder of all you.

Eh?

Not only as a person of the walls, but also as a fellow working man.

Thank you.

Right... Next time, whip up an article that pats us on the back.

What will happen to all of us?

Just as we've looked at Titans with fear... with hate...

...and with the wish that they would disappear from the world,

the people of the world see us not as humans, but as dangerous monsters.

And as a result, what if this hell only repeats itself?

Until the last of us are wiped out, this hell...

won't end.

Hey, you heroes of the walls.

Hitch... You came?

I just came to see you guys receive your medals.

I see.

Marlo was...

..brave all the way till the end.

Yeah.

Right, Floch? Tell her.

Sure...

Marlo Freudenberg was an urgent recruit, just like me.

But he managed to bring us recruits together.

The situation was hopeless and the Scouts were on the verge of ruin.

We thought all was lost and were stricken with fear.

But he... Only he inspired us.

Yeah?

He was an amazing person.

I know. That's why...

That's probably why he never listened to me.

But in the end...

...I'm sure he regretted being there.

Thanks.

I'll laugh if you screw up the ceremony.

Hey! Why did you do that?

Because... Someone has to tell the truth.

I know how desperate you were to revive Commander Erwin.

That's right.

It should have been the commander, not you.

I'm not the only one who thinks that.

We all do.

Everyone who read the report thinks the same thing:

Why wasn't Erwin the one picked?

What the hell do you know about Armin?

Tell me!

Nothing at all.

I'm not his childhood friend, and we're not chums, either.

But I can still tell you why Armin was chosen.
