Just when you thought Attack on Titan couldn’t rip your heart🀅 out anyღmore, one eagle-eyed viewer has spotted an incredible callback that makes the finale’s most traumatic scene even more tragic.

Earlier in the Final Season, Eren glimpsed a pregnant woman at🐎 the port in Marley. It’s a small, insignificant act at first glance – but one that ultimately reminds him of his mother as his humanity begins to fade away.

That woman returns in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Attack on Titan Final Chap🧜ters Special ෴2 in an especially harrowing scene involving the Titans of the Rumbling forcing a large crowd of people to tumble over a cliff-face. While the mother is not so lucky and seemingly dies, the baby is carried to safety. See the𓂃 moment for yourself below.

But, then, Attack on Titan was never going to be all sunshine and roses. As creator Hajime Isayama told , he quickly had to "give up" on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the idea of a happy ending.

"I guess there could have been an ending where it was a happy ending and the war ended and everything was fine and dandy. I guess that could💝 have been possible. At the same time, the end of fighting and the end of contention itself kind of seems hokey," Isayꦜama said. 

He continued: "It kind of seems like it’s not even believable. It’s just 𝄹not plausible in the world we’re living in right now. And s🅘o, sadly, I had to give up on that kind of happy ending."
