I am also a big fan of the first three seasons. The fourth season is not a whim, but the author draws the beginning and the end before starting the serialization (presumably because the style of the beginning and the end is consistent, not necessarily accurate). The story of the giant was conceived from the beginning, but the development of the story exceeded the author's expectations, and it was inexplicable to force the ending.
(The following is my own understanding.) You came after the first three seasons. You have thought that if you are Allen, when you know how powerful the power of the ancestor is, what is in your heart, you can think of Allen launching The order given when the Earth roared was definitely not to kill half of them and leave a little, but to paralyze all the Eldians and then kill all the outside of the island.
Allen's lament at the end of the third season, "Can we live free after killing all the people outside the wall?" It was at that time that he understood that even if all the people outside the wall were killed, people would still fall into the fight. Enemies like giants will have infighting, so paradise does not exist.
In the real ending, you can understand that when Jike and Allen came into contact, the ground chirping was already launched, and the plot of the fourth season could not stand at all.
Allen's lament at the seaside is: even if the people on the other side of Guanghai are killed, human beings cannot be free, but he still has to do it.
A good work, in addition to a smooth plot and distinctive characters, should also be thought-provoking. There is no doubt that the giant can achieve the above three points. As for many people saying that the ending is unfinished, I am undecided. We are no longer children, and we will not cry, make trouble and hang ourselves for the ending set by the author. The real ending should be in our hearts. , moving is temporary, but thinking is eternal.
