What isayama's original plan could mean for a series

Summary

• Isayama's original attack on Titan End was inspired by the film “The Mist”.

• The end of the fog included Eren, which may have made it possible to continue the rattle.

• The end of the fog could result in a dark and regretful result for the characters.

What if Attack on titanium Did he end up differently? It's not just a question when fans regularly ask; It's something that had a deep impact on Isayama. Was widely reported that Isayama fought Attack on Titan's They end up and many fans were left without influence on what he came up with. But there was a place where Isayama intended to do something else: the so -called fog.

Fog is perhaps the closest we have to the official alternative end Shingeki no kyojin In addition to the fans of fans created since the series, it ended in 2021. Since we know, there are several possible ways to play.

Isayama reveals the original plans of the end

In an interview from 2013 (announced about the comic book Natalie) Isayama revealed that his plans to end Attack on titanium has changed. His comments are translated in more places as follows:

“Although I progress towards the end that has been set earlier, my approach to the end has changed from the original plans. Because I now feel responsible to the reader. I originally wanted to illustrate something like a movie Fog”

This is not the only time that Isayama spoke about Attack on Titan's end. In more interviews, he said he was not satisfied with the end of the series, and apologized to the fans for the fact that in 2022 on Anime NYC on Anime NYC.

Also, the changed end is not the only example of changing the story due to external pressures. Was widely reported that Isayama intended to kill Levi, one of the Attack on Titan's The most popular characters, but his editor Shintaro Kawakubo was convinced.

What is the fog?

Fog It was a movie horror MySsire based on a novel written by Stephen King. Was released in 2007, one year after Attack on Titan's The original disposable shot was created, but two years before the start of serialization of the series. Interestingly, the film is most remarkable about changing the end to something much darker and more brutal than in the original story.

IN FogPeople from a small town in Maine find themselves trapped in a supermarket after a fog containing strange, dangerous creatures surround them. The film, which is limited and the fear of monsters outside, primarily deals with volatile dynamics of those who are trapped inside the supermarket when people start to turn each other.

IN Fog The end of the film that avoided the supermarket, but feared the escape of the horrors of the fog, the main character, David, kills everyone with him as an act of mercy before entering the fog, and expects to kill monsters. A moment later, however, the fog is cleaned and is rescued by the US Army. David, he realized he killed everyone without a reason before they were going to save, shouting in horror.

Destruction, shock and regret: What could an attack on Titan Mist Ending might look like

Isayama gave a greater clarity of his idea of ​​citing fog in the original interview above. This interview is no longer officially available online, but translations can still be found throughout the community. Here is one example from Reddit:

“In the middle of the movie, the story.” Fog It is at a typical level of B-List. Based on its conclusion, however, he used the deep, inner beliefs of the main character about what is right to disrupt the main character himself, which led him to act in the opposite way. What the audience believed that it was right is also overturned upside down. At the beginning I spent a while analyzing how to imitate this style for Shingeki no kyojin”

Humbling is probably the key to attacking Titan's fog

A lot of Attack on Titan's Success comes from how she carefully planned the series from the very beginning, which allowed Isayam to create a plot and pretense for which she is known. This is perhaps best illustrated by the reference “2000 years” in the opening chapter and the episode and the chapter just before the rumbling, the beginning of the end of the series.

Key principle Attack on titanium From the very beginning, Eren's unsurpassed desire to kill all titans. His destructive tendencies often brought him to fight as a child, and the passion for fighting causes Mikasa's unspeakable problems that try to keep him safe soon in the story.

If Isayama wanted his original end to follow Fog – Clicking the inner beliefs of the main character and then corrupt them until he finished the opposite – the obvious solution would be that Eren decides to need Titans alive to get what he wants. This is largely what is happening in liability. Therefore, it is very likely that it played a key role in the original fog.

Another part of the supposed plan of Isayama was the overturning of what the audience believes is right. Fog He does it by revealing that the fog eventually did not kill the main characters as they thought. If there is a spirit Attack on Titan's Mist, there are several ways to go.

Maybe fog ends 1: The world ends

One version of the fog ending Attack on titanium It could be that it is not possible to stop the relocation and eventually killed everyone.

If Mikasa killed Eren's founding Titan, but the wall Titani continued their unstoppable march around the world and eventually killed all of them, including those on Paradis, then you would see the end where Mikasa must accept death, knowing that her act of killing Eren had no point.

This could be the kind of conclusion of the intestine that Isayama originally assumed but is a little more separate Fog than the second possible end.

Maybe fog ending 2: Eren's hollow victory

Another, perhaps more likely version of the end of the fog could be that there is a spirit, but it will not achieve what Eren wants.

If Eren's founding Titan defeated the reconnaissance corps during the battle of heaven and the earth and his spirit was allowed to carry out his course, Attack on titanium He could end up being the last main character alive. He would be the hero of the people of Paradis, but he would also know that his actions had killed all he took care of.

Then it could appear a few years later that the small resistance forces somehow survived the scattering and rebuilt on the mainland and planned to attack Paradis again Attack on Titan's Anime. Without a hint of permanent peace, Mikasa, Armin and the deaths of others would be futile as the death in Fog.

There are no information from Isayama right now on which details Attack on titanium The end was different from what he originally assumed. Maybe in a few years we will be lucky to get more information from the creator. Regardless of how the end should go through will probably take a long time to the future.
