@TornadoOfTerror @Wolffkran I'm glad other people are on board w/ this, I've been saying it forever. I remember how titan showed up and got IMMENSE popularity in the US, particularly among the youth. THere were all kinds of panic articles of journos seething that it "glorified fascism". Japs are utter pushovers, and all it takes is a phone call from someone at the embassy saying they represent "powerful" groups/people who are "worried that the direction of your publication will foster extremism".
It doesn't make sense why the guy used to be so consistent about who he was and what he liked, only to literally give the protag a 180º character turn that's just about as purposefully displeasing to those who idolize him as you can.
ZOG and its priests HATE heroes, and they love being able to write a character they believe their enemies worship - if they were writing the ending themselves, how could they make Eren look any worse, weak, foolish, and faggy than they did? They literally made the cuckiest dialog they could, made the worst ending they could imagine so that future kids wouldn't "go alt-right" out of their admiration for a protag who's unrepentant about looking out for he & his.
The ending about eldia being holocausted was just the writer's last little spurt of authority over the story, a way to underhandedly throw it back in his editors' and publishers' faces. That's why it's so scatterbrained, the story was written by one man only to become a script-by-committee at the 11th hour.
