I have so many problems with Attack on Titan, but right now I want to talk about the illogical world-building.
Giant creatures who only eat humans and only have one 'Achilles Heel' to take them out. Got it.
And you want to fight them with swords?
How did two swords win? They went through the trouble to build a whole, physics defying harness contraption to make them fly?
Tumblr media
There were so many other weapons they could have used if they couldn't get to 'the weak spot.'
Step One, discover electricity. Step Two, build a goddamn fence.
Do they breathe? I don't remember, but poisonous gas. (Not in a civilian setting obviously and you'd need a breathing apparatus.)
Invent the flamethrower.
Too much to ask? Fine, here's some less technical solutions:
Caltrops.
Boiling oil poured over the side of the Wall.
Sulfuric acid and other dangerous chemical compounds that will break down organic matter. (There's gotta be a chemist somewhere here.)
Put spikes on the Wall.
Survey Corps all gathered together in a concentrated group to lure the titans in to a trap...coulda used that tactic to dig a pit trap, no?
Set the titans on fire.
Let's also address the fact the Survey Corps was completely useless by existing as the living embodiment of Einstein's definition of insanity. “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” That 'brilliant idea' of Armin's where they travel to Shiganshina at night because the titans are less active..............you're telling me....that in a hundred years...nobody else thought of that?!
The government and public were right; they were a strain on resources and brought little benefit to society. If they wanted to be useful, the purpose of the expeditions should've been more forage/hunting based in order to bring food back to a starving populace. And there would have been food. The people of Wall Maria had to abandon their homes within a twelve hour or less span, so there is no conceivable way everyone could have brought all their livestock with them. Survey Corps could've been protecting civilians as they rounded up lost cattle, pigs, chickens, sheep, etc. And Sasha might’ve gone down in history as the greatest Scout of all time.
Another thing that doesn't add up: the textile industry. With as much land as they had, the pasture land food-clothing ratio was not adequate for the population.
There are not enough cows!
Based on available materials, I assume the ODM harness and boots are made of leather. With the limited space for cattle, that supply could not meet the demand at the rate the Scouts were being killed off. (They were definitely recycling dead people's boots and gear.) That's not even taking into account regular people who need footwear or the countless other things that require leather: saddles and other horse tack, gloves, tools, heavy protective aprons for factory workers or smiths, etc.
Cotton requires a long growing season. Do they have that? Linen comes from flax seed. You'd need space to grow that and flax doesn't have much nutritional use other than soup. Same goes for jute. Wool is a possibility, but is everything made of wool? What about silk? Do they have silk worms? What are the wealthy wearing?
We can probably rule out synthetic and mineral fabrics as I don't think they have the technology.
Natural resources: They use firearms and cannons, which means there has to be a sulfur mine somewhere to make gunpowder. Except naturally-occurring sulfur is most commonly found near volcanic regions. Volcano on that island? Maybe, if sulfur was one of the 'resources' the Marley people were after.
Where are they getting the alcohol? There's a food shortage and no sane nation is going to allow citizens to plant vineyards on land that can be used for crops and they're not going to use grain for beer when it could be used for bread. I get there was corruption in the government, but limited space is limited space.
Another thing I would like to point out is no matter how many times the Founding Titan suppressed knowledge of the outside world, any mathematician with enough determination could have gone rogue and calculated the size of their world. Despite what we were told in kindergarten, people did not 'discover' the earth was round when Columbus 'discovered' America and nobody believed the earth was flat. (He also didn't discover America, but that's not what we're here for.) Ancient Greek mathematician, librarian, astronomer, scholar Eratosthenes of Cyrene determined the circumference of the earth by comparing the sun's position in the sky in relation to two different points on earth.
He was off by 2%.
Why is this important? The old order of the Walls was very much greed-based. When word of exactly how much land (and wealth) they were missing out on got out, the merchant guilds would have had their own coup against the king.

just copy and pasting some aot meta stuff here for myself
From a Google search and two sources
"Subjects of Ymir" is their race whereas "Eldian" is their ethnicity or nationality.
Ethnicity. According to Marley, the Eldian Empire had forced other races to have their children, to produce more Subjects of Ymir. This implies that if a Subject of Ymir reproduces with an individual of another ethnicity, the offspring will be a Subject of Ymir. Subjects of Ymir can be identified through blood testing."
From a Quora Q & A
What is the difference of the subject of Ymir to the Eldians tribe? Why do other subjects of YMir have no royal lineage?
MANGA SPOILERS AHEAD
To awnser this question, you first need to understand three distinct definitions:
Eldians: members of the Eldian Tribe, all of them regular humans at that point. Under the Empire of Eldia, most of them are Subjects of Ymir but some of them remain 100% human. However because most of the Eldians (again, not all) are Subjects of Ymir, by the time of the events of the manga both terms have become synonims as a result of generalization, despite not actually meaning the same thing.
Subjects of Ymir: people who possess Ymir's inhuman blood, and are able to turn into Titans as a result because of their connection to the Paths Dimension. Ymir's unnatural blood cannot be diluted so any son of a Subject of Ymir, independently if the other parent is a Subject of Ymir or not, will be another Subject of Ymir.
The Royal Blood: the individuals who possess the royal blood of King Fritz, enabling them to exert control over the Founding Titan by having access to the Paths Dimension where they are able to command Ymir to fulfill their wishes just like their ancestor, King Fritz, did in life. Because the King's blood is purely human, it can be diluted over time to the point where Ymir no longer recognizes her master's blood and will not be able to be commanded. Because of this, keeping Fritz's blood as pure as possible would be of utmost importance to the Royal Family of Eldia in order to keep their access to the Founding Titan intact through generations.
Now that you understand the difference between those terms, both awnsers are rather simple:
What is the difference between the Subjects of Ymir and the Eldians?
That the Subjects of Ymir are those who possess Ymir's blood and thus, are able to turn into Titans while being Eldian means being a citizen of Eldia.
Why do other Subjects of Ymir not have royal lineage?
It is because only one of the three daughters of King Fritz became Queen of Eldia after her father passed away and kept her father's blood pure in her royal family. However, the other two presumably became breeding machines to create more Subjects of Ymir (and by extention, Titans), and as a result of this, King Fritz's blood was eventually lost in their descendants
However...
What is the difference between Eldians and the subjects of Ymir?
I will be exploring into the latest manga chapters to answer this question…But as far as I know, there is no clear answer.
Subjects of Ymir are those people who are descendants of Ymir Fritz (married (forcibly) to King Fritz), the first Founding Titan.
Eldians are the people who make up the nation of Eldia. The nation of Eldia consists of people who are subjects of Ymir and other clans who have joined Eldia in its conquest. So basically,
Eldia = Subjects of Ymir + Other clans (Like the Ackerman clan)
The Founding Titan can control all subjects of Ymir as if they are a part of itself. The other clans should be immune to the Founding Titan’s powers. In order to maintain peace, the King of the walls ordered these other clans to prevent passing on Eldia’s history to their children so that the Founding Titan’s memory manipulation, which only works on subjects of Ymir, would be successful. Two of those clans, Ackerman and Asian, have not agreed to this and hence they were prosecuted.
But Mikasa, an Ackerman, was affected by the Founding Titan when Eren used its powers to address all the people. Since its the power of the Founding Titan, it should affect only the subjects of Ymir (Armin, Jean, Reiner, Pieck, Zeke, Gabi etc etc) and not the other minority clans. But Mikasa was there in the co-ordinate space….
This just breaks everything I just said at the top. But many chapters hinted the difference between Eldians and the subjects of Ymir (as mentioned above).
So either I’m wrong and further chapters will reveal the exact difference or the author has made a mistake in drawing Mikasa there or I’m wrong and it has been revealed in past chapters and I failed to see it. In the later case, it would be helpful if someone can explain it to me. As of now, the exact definition is not clear.
More Q & A from Quora
What happens if a marleyan becomes a titan, do they die because they aren't subjects of Ymir, and why don't the eldians who inherit one of the nine, destroy all of marley for the things they've done to their people?
A full-blooded Marleyan cannot become a Titan. Only Subjects of Ymir can become Titans. If a Marleyan or any other non-Eldian were injected with the Titan serum, absolutely nothing would happen.
Tumblr media
However, people with even partial Eldian ancestry can presumably turn into Titans because the Eldian gene appears to be dominant. As stated here by Grisha’s father, it appears that any racial group who interbreeds with Eldians produces offspring that are all Subjects of Ymir and are therefore capable of turning into Titans.
Tumblr media
That is why individuals like Reiner are able to turn into Titans.
As for the second part of your question, I am assuming you are referring to the Warriors of Marley. They are indeed Eldians so why don’t they revolt against the nation that has oppressed their people for generations? Well, let’s take a look at them:
Notice something?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They are children. Only children.
Marley was very smart in designing their Warriors program. They use children because it is easier to control them psychologically. They need Warriors who are absolutely loyal to Marley and who will buy into their propaganda without question. It is more difficult to brainwash adults and they cannot risk the Warriors rebelling. Marley is heavily dependent on the Titan power, if not entirely so, for their military dominance, so it’s safe to say if the Warriors saw through the lies and decided to revolt, Marley would be finished, even with the Warhammer on their side.
I also think this is an excellent way for the Marleyan military to maximize the thirteen year time limit the Titan Shifters have. It appears that pre-teen children are normally granted the Titan power so they will have soldiers at peak physical age as they will be in their mid to late twenties when their “term” expires.
And to elaborate on my point about loyalty, the Marleyan authorities are also effectively holding their families hostage. Should any Warrior show signs of dissent, their power will be stripped from them and their families will be sent to Paradis. It’s cruel but effective.

Genuine question: Should the wall titans have turned into a bunch of very confused naked people after the curse of Ymir was broken?
They were made from humans, they can be killed by slicing out their napes like every other titan, so shouldn’t there have been a giant crowd of millions of two thousand year old Eldians at the end of the series?
I think I’ve discussed this before, but I can’t remember if it was on the discord or here. Thoughts??

Tumblr media
With the void, black space and sparkling little dots in the sky, you traveled home in your car listening to the radio play hits of the month. Tonight was heavenly for you, you loved hot summer nights ever since you were a kid, don’t even get you started on spring or fall nights. Summer nights were filled with people walking on the sidewalks talking with their friends, relatives, and partners. They were filled with loud music blaring from bars, clubs, and people sitting in their cars.
As you drove to your professor's house as his T.A., You passed lots of entertainment and that made you smile so much. You couldn’t wait to collect the test answers so you could grade your students' tests. You wanted to be able to enjoy this adolescent night. You were planning to go to a restaurant that stays open until 4 am with your friends since they needed to catch up with you. All you need is the test answers and then you’re set, probably should be finished by 12:30 am. Your friends should be coming out of the club by 2:30 am, so you’ll even have time to shower and get ready. You all decided to pull an all-nighter because you missed the days when you used to do it.
You passed a few big houses before you made it to his large house, the house always brings up memories you held deep inside of your memory. Memories that you shared with 4 other men including Erwin Smith. You stopped your car and got out after turning the headlights off. Your keys jiggled and moved as you walked up to his door proudly with a small smile on your face. Once you made it to the double entry wrought iron doors that stood taller than you. You have no idea how he could afford this but you had a guess in mind since he wears a lot of expensive tailored suits to work.
You pushed the doorbell, rocking back and forth to calm your nerves of being here again. You haven’t been here in a month, couldn’t face them outside of work. You were glad you only got to see Erwin instead of Levi, Who was in the same department as Erwin but had a different subject— which was Writing while Erwin had History. Miche was in the art department while Nile was in the science department with Hange. Hange, a person you wished you could’ve had there as well since you’ve always eyed them.
You rang it again before deciding to knock on the door when you didn’t hear an answer. You moved to the side and peaked through the glass to see if you saw anyone and you didn’t. So you stood there for a minute until you decided to just go in. You twisted the doorknob and it opened, it was almost like someone left it open for you. Erwin definitely did because he always used to say let him know when you’re on your way and you did, only two hours ago. You shrugged your shoulders and walked inside— closing the door softly, avoiding the slam the door always did when you used to come here freely.
You walked to the entrance of his living room and heard his groans loud and clear. He was too occupied in pleasuring himself out in the open to even realize the door bell had rang. He had on the new Apple vision pro vr headset and the noise coming from them was so lewd that you were speechless. You could hear it from where you were standing, so you slowly put your purse/bag on the table an arm length next to you and slowly walked to him.
Once you got closer to Erwin, you heard the slick noises of him stroking his dick up and down with , from the smell of it, strawberry lube you brought over here from the last time you were here. He kept it with him and you wanted to know why, soon you will find out. Just as you were about to speak, you heard your voice speak from the headset in a needy tone.
“ Fu-ah-ck~!! I can’t take it anymore Miche, please please please.” Your moans were so pretty and you almost wanted to pat yourself on the back from how pornographic they sound. You slowly walked around the couch and stood on the edge of it looking directly at Erwin.
“ shit! Welcome, Miss { reader’s last name}. Your…”. Erwin was stuck when his dick pumped in excitement in his hand. You didn’t know if the excitement was from the video, the adrenaline of being caught, or from your stare on him. His body was sweaty and you could tell he’s been at this for a minute now because of the smell of strawberry and cum around him. The saltine air was doing something to your senses and it went straight to your now tingling pussy.
“ Is this how you greet all your past T.A.’s, Mr.Smith. If so I’ll begin to think of you as a horny pervert. Wouldn’t want that now would cha’?”. Your whispering was getting to him as you now noticed he paused the video with his finger pressing into the air. “ How can you even see out of those? Hmm, wanna give me an explanation as to how that is and what I just walked in on.” Your voice was so alluring to him, it didn’t matter if you had a gruff velvet tone or soft tone, he loved hearing your voice.
Erwin showed you his small smile as he began to talk again after searching for his voice for about 5 seconds, “ I would gladly explain this futuristic device to you later, miss { readers last name} but I’m a little preoccupied with trying it out right now. If you’re looking for the test answers, they’re in my office down the hall. Specifically on the desk.” He then lifted the device off his eyes, setting it on top of his blonde, unruly hair. Sweat built upon his forehead as the lines from the device formed on his red face making him, surprisingly, look very enticing to you.
You looked back at the hall he pointed to prior to looking back at him with low eyes, “ They’ll have to wait for now. After all, we have a three day weekend starting tonight, so why don’t I show my appreciation to Professor Smith. Put back on that VR set, sir. Want you to focus on that video and that video only.”
He almost let out a low groan at the pet name he so desperately loved, especially when you called him that. School or not, he’s always gonna feel something when you call him that. You slowly took off your top as he slid the car set back on his face. After your top came off, your bra followed— gently falling to the floor. You walked up to Erwin and slowly got on your knees in front of him. His cocked open legs were so thick and muscled, you were planning on riding them sometime in your life, maybe tonight. Who knows. You trailed your acrylic nails up his thighs— dragging them close to his trimmed pubic hairs. You watched as he bit back a moan and as his dick jumped against his lower stomach. The red angry tip was having a stare off with you and you were winning because of his twitching.
Your knees hurt on the carpet but you were gonna ignore it for now. You wanted his cock in your mouth and you were gonna get him in your mouth. You tried to enclose your right hand on his dick, but it didn’t fit around the entirety of his cock. Thick fingers trying so hard to wrap around his thick abnormal dick, you then pressed his tip on your lips giving him a little peck prior to rubbing his wet tip across the lower half of your face. You wanted this to be messy and you were gonna get it even if he was caught by surprise when you did that.
Erwin was bigger than Levi and close in length to miche whilst being close to Nile in girth. You could tell he started the video over because you heard your whimpers which meant you were being teased by Levi.
“ How long have you dreamed of this, little girl? I’m sure you even day dreamed about being used like a little slut by us. Such a shame really. Such a pretty little shame.”, Levi says on the video. Erwin watched on the big screen he had on his Vr set. He was so glad he got this VR set because he could watch this video in 3d with a fake background of the ocean.
He watched your eyes look up in a squint as you looked at Levi, “ I’m not a little girl. So don’t call me- hnngn.” Two fingers were placed inside of your pussy by Levi who looked at you with low sharp eyes, “ what was that? Couldn’t hear you over you being a slut for my fingers.” The camera panned to Miche, Nile, And Erwin before he set the camera up on the tall night stand in his room.
Erwin moved next to you to plant his kiss on your buttercream scent lips as Miche whistled at Levi words, “ Come on, Levi. You gotta give the girl credit for seducing each one of us with those pretty brown eyes of hers. Eyes that told stories without talking, we’re now experiencing another story of hers.” Leave it to Miche Zacharias to bring his perception into this, reasons why he’s an art teacher.
You, on the other hand, took the tip of his cock in your mouth causing him to let out a low moan. The way your lips instantly lock on his dick should be awarded. The sucking sounds from you was enough to cause him to put down the VR, but he’ll never be able to get to his favorite part if he does.
Erwin's body shuddered when he heard your pleas in the video and felt your lips swallow more of his dick in your wet, hot mouth. You almost vomited on his dick, but you controlled your breathing and throat to take him in completely. Both of your hands were now on the lower part of his cock as spit slowly glided down his dick and onto your hands. Erwin held your head in one of his hands as he tried so hard to keep his eyes on the screen like you said.
The convulsing of your throat was enough to make him want to snap his hips up, but he resisted and let you take control, just this once.
“ Ummph, your dick is stretching me, Nile. Pl-”, you moaned as he slid inside of your wet pussy with the help of miche holding your legs open from underneath you. Levi let a small smirk display in his face in the video. Erwin just now noticed that little smirk and he was so gonna tease Levi for it later but right now your moans plus your lips wrapped around his cock was the only thing on his mind.
“ Ease up a little, Nile and Mike. Don’t want my little TA to call off work just because we broke her.”, Erwin said as he played with your pretty nipples in a clockwise motion making you squirm even more. Levi stroked himself on the side of you while sucking on your neck. Nile was too busy trying not to cum because of the way you were squeezing around his dick, “ Looks like she needs to ease up on me before my dick breaks. She’s fucking tight. So please, sweetheart. Ease up for me, will ya’ ?” Nile held your face in between his hands— looking directly in your eyes.
You couldn’t even think straight because of the fullness you were feeling in both holes. They complimented each other all too well, but you got pulled out of your daze when you felt a kiss on your mouth from a different man. The man in front of you, Nile. His kiss was ruff but a little passionate which suddenly made you loosen up around his dick causing him to move back and forth with ease. Miche groan loudly when you convulsed your other hole around his long cock, “ Fuck, pretty girl. You’re treating my dick so well.” His deep baritone voice sent shivers down your horny spine and you couldn’t do anything but moan, loudly too.
Levi rolled his eyes when he heard you repeating curse words with a whine laced in your whimpers, “ Erwin shut her up before I do it.” He was such a mean Dom and you loved it. Nile and Miche shared a choked moan and groan because you tightened around them at the same time when you heard what he said. Erwin chuckled and turned your head to his standing cock, “ Come on, my princess. Don’t wanna upset him any further now, do we?” His tone was chilling, almost like a threat and you loved it. Erwin took his cock in his hand and tapped your plump lips, “ Open up wide for me, darling. Want you to open up nice and wide for me.” You looked up at him through your lashes as your body thrashed up and down due to Nile and Mike’s movements. They were so in sync with each other as you parted your lips as you could go. Next sounds that were heard were your slurpy moans and the moans of all the men around you as you pleasured them.
Levi was in love with the way you twisted your hand around his cock, “ such a pretty view to see you filled up in all of your holes. Shit! Your fucking hands are working me so perfectly. Being such a good girl right now, baby. Keep it up for me, got that?” Your moans on Erwin’s dick told everyone everything they needed to know. You were gonna be a good girl for them after all.
Erwin couldn’t handle the way your head bobbed up and down on his cock with ease now. Your throat warmed up to him and he couldn’t be more proud of you. You were struggling to take him in the video but now here— it’s like you were a new person or spirit. He loved every second of it, paying attention to the dick sucking sounds you made as you devoured him. “ Mmm” and “ hmm” were heard all around his living room. Teary eyes was something he saw after rolling his eyes to the back of his head in pure lightness. He looked down at you slurping his cock up like you were drinking out a small straw with a thick ass milkshake.
Erwin reached to the top of your head, setting a shaky palm just over your hairstyle, “ May I?” You bobbed your head up and down to answer his question and he sequenced after moving whatever hairstyle you had in your hair out from your eyes, so you can really see. One of the small things you noticed about Erwin compared to the others is that he knows the boundaries and doesn’t over step them without thinking about it. Bare minimum? Yes.
He tasted so good in your mouth, salt with a small hint of used cum. You couldn’t describe it exactly but you knew his dick had just the right flavor to openly want to suck his dick up the way you’re doing it right now. Hollowing your cheeks caused him to spring up and try to knock his knees together but you scratched at his stomach letting him know to sit down and take it like he told you plenty of time on his desk, bed, etc. “ Ah, Ah, swee-sweetheart, I’m going to cum soon if you keep doing - oahh- that.” Erwin was never this vocal before and he needed to start being this vocal because now one of your hands dropped from his dick— moving down to your undergarment. You rubbed yourself in slow circles feeling the wetness spreading on your fingers like it was honey.
You removed your other hand and dropped that one to his balls to play with them in a soothing but pleasuring way. Your moans were getting louder on the screen and off the screen. It wasn’t just only your moans though, Erwin’s moans were off screen. He was enjoying himself too much and honestly he didn’t care. He was mouth drunk in a sense. Could wait for it to end no matter what. He didn’t want this memory to end at all. Miche was right, you were a part of the memories he had to reminisce about when he gets older and wither away like all older people do.
The sounds of gagging were heard when your mouth moved further down his cock up until the little blonde hair on his pelvis. Your moans from playing with yourself were stuffed so good with his cock deep down your throat. “ fuck! Sweet girl, your mouth and hands feel so good. So. Damn. Amazing. Keep going for me, my sweet doll.”
The video now showed you now taking him and Levi inside of your pussy together. Your screams of pleasure were one for Erwin’s history books. “ Fuck, she’s fucking swallowing my dick right now. Erwin you choose the right one to be your damn T.A.” Erwin chuckled as he focused on holding your thighs— you were in the cowgirl position on top of him.
“ You should see her face taking both of us right now, Levi. So damn beautiful.” Erwin kissed your neck wrapping both of his arms around you— Levi wrapped his arms around your arms pulling your upper body up a little bit, “ beautiful huh? Maybe Mike or Nile could take a picture and send it to Eren Kruger and Zeke, let them know what they’re missing.” Tears fell down your eyelashes as they battered their dicks inside of you with soft little kisses from Erwin to comfort you even more than you already felt.
Miche chuckled with his head tilted back before getting up to come hold your chubby face in between his big hands, “ such a beauty indeed. Even more beautiful with a fucked out expression on your face. Such a pity they couldn’t come, huh.” Nile came up beside him, both with their dick standing on full hard, “ I’ll take the picture only for me, then two don’t deserve to see this masterpiece of a woman, isn’t that right my little bunny?” Just then Erwin snapped his hips up as Levi followed after, both spilling inside of you as your mouth fell into a silent O as you came on their cocks— That silent O soon got filled with a thick tip of Mike’s dick.
“ God, I wish you could see how pretty you look right now. Gonna- mmph.” Erwin groans turned into moans when you let out a little moan against the sensitive part on his dick, his veins. The video stopped and you notice he snatched off his Apple Vision Pro headset and grabbed your head to make you engulf all of his dick without any room to breathe. Erwin grabbed your throat to feel his bulge against it and nothing could ever satisfy him the way your throat bulge did. You stayed where you were until you felt thick salty fluid in your mouth. You had no choice but to swallow all of his cum inside of your gagging mouth. Small Snot flowing down your nose with Spit and the rest of his cum you couldn’t swallow flowed down this dick to his ass. “ Holy shit! Fuck, m gonna cum in that pretty little mouth, don’t run. Don’t run. Breathe through your nose for me….” And you did to which he responded with a lazy smile after he came down from his high, “ good girl. Such a good little slut for me.”
He let you go when you tapped his thigh and you automatically lifted your throat off his cock, coughing a little prior to a small smile displaying on your face, “ Next time, could you do that during the intercourse. I liked it, especially if it’s from you.” Erwin body slumped against the back of his couch as he peered down at you with low blue eyes, “ You’re so pretty. I need you to say it back to me, pretty girl.” You didn’t know where the serge of affirmation came from, but you were living for it as you looked at him like he was the only man in the world. Little did you know, you were always the only woman in his world.
“ I’m pretty— your pretty girl.” Your voice was so low and he knew it was because of his dick. Erwin pulled you up by your hands, kissing them. He then pulled you down on top of him and kissed you on the mouth, “ Yes, my pretty little butterfly. Thank you for giving me the best I ever had …. Now about those test answers?” He lifted up his eyebrow at you. Somehow, you had forgotten about them because your jaw hurt. You’ll have to grade tomorrow and make sure the girls make it back safely. You’ll have to reschedule everything all because of Mr.eyebrows with the big dick chuckling at you waving your hand whilst laying on his chest.

Why i believe Gojo could come back
This chapter left us in a devastated state and was absolutely uncalled for, but I personally believe this isnt the end of the strongest sorcerer. There are several reasons as to why (These are just opinions, I could be wrong in certain areas AND personal feelings might make an occassional appearance.)
LEAKS:
Tumblr media
This whole panel was obviously made for a reason. And we dont see gojo making a decision. Considering the fact that this is literally THE Gojo Satoru, he's more likely to choose north since there's numerous things left as plot holes. We'll get to that.
Tumblr media
Here in this page, he mentions that Toji should've cut his head off to actually kill him. In the leaks, whats cut off is his upper body but not the head! I still can't quite wrap my head around RCT but lets say he's not able to heal himself. You know who can and who would? Yuta and Shoko
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now moving on
Tumblr media
"Gojo then bids farewell to everyone." If hes truly gone then why would he be bidding farewell to the fallen comrades? If he's dead then isn't he supposed to stay in the afterlife with them?
Tumblr media
Pretty self explanatory

What if Kashimo is going in to distract Sukuna while Shoko and Yuta can heal Gojo?
Now think about this. Gojo is gone, Shoko doesnt fight and who are all left? A bunch of sorcerers who are literally under 20, need guidance and we havent really seen any panel where they actually plan how they're going to go about in the whole battle. Gojo isnt a want, hes a NEED, a NECESSITY.
Remember, Toji who was dead long ago pretty much appeared out of nowhere in Shibuya Arc LMAO so- yes
Tumblr media
WHAT IS THIS EVEN SUPPOSED TO MEAN
Theres no way Gojo would be left sealed for 3 whole years, brought him back just to kill him off in the most disrespectful way possible.
Besides, things that Gojo wanted to do haven't happened yet.
He wanted to tell megumi about his father
He wanted to see his students surpass the strongest sorcerer, aka him
He wanted to get rid of the higher ups
He wanted to properly mourn suguru (for which kenjaku has to be defeated but oh well)
He wanted to save Megumi
Tumblr media
How'd we know what Gojo said here.
On to the other aspects of why killing off Gojo was a bad idea. We barely ever saw what happened to him, and an off screen death to the so called strongest sorcerer is just senseless. Gojo is a fan favourite. People started watching the show for Gojo (myself included) and there's a high possibility of multiple people dropping the manga since he isn't even there anymore.
The ending could take a turn for the worse considering the fact that Sukuna is just overpowered and Kenjaku hasn't done anything as of now. Unless there's some heavy plot armor I dont think the students even stand a chance against Sukuna and Kenjaku. Both outcomes- the students and others emerging as victors or sukuna emerging as a victor could make the ending absolutely terrible and this might as well top AOT for being the manga with the most disliked ending.
Gojo Satoru is the mentor for multiple; for Yuji, Nobara, Megumi, Yuta, Maki, Panda, Toge and the third years and its necessary for them to have someone to teach them. It is one of Satoru's wishes to see his students surpass him, which can happen only when he's there since there's nobody else who is actually capable of teaching them and leading them into the world as actual graduated sorcerers.
So Gojo dying will make the manga take a turn for the worse. Killing him off in the middle makes absolutely no sense and is just plain bad writing. People are prolly gonna kill me for this but lets admit the truth. Hyping this battle, building up tension just to finish him off screen is NOT good writing.
Anyways. There is factual proof of Gojo potentially making a return. Maybe at a cost, like him losing his power, losing his "strongest" title or anything else. He may not even be the same anymore but honestly as long as he's back, I'm fine.
Tumblr media
It happened previously, and could happen again.
Satoru Gojo may not be the strongest and the honoured one, but may be reborn as a newer version of himself after getting humbled. Lotuses, as mentioned above symbolise rebirth, which is why i believe this is not the end.
A small bit of advice for gojo fans: Go watch haikyuu or highschool babysitters as a form of self care <3

Sooo how do you feel about the aot ending.
i don’t think you meant how i feel compared to the manga ending but since it’s connected to my feelings i’ll go that route anyway :D
i was always super mixed on the manga ending. and don’t get me wrong there’s no plot difference, which is why it’s a little hard to explain why i think the anime executed it perfectly.
1: the manga ending felt rushed. specifically armin and eren’s last conversation, there wasn’t NEARLY as much depth. mappa changed that, with a bunch of very slight additions which ended up making a huge difference.
2: so did the pacing of (for instance) mikasa’s grieving under the tree, the extra pages passing along slowly with the end credits, historia’s last monologue about her memories of the future that eren gave her.
3: the manga also did VERY little in giving a glimpse into everyone’s lives in the epilogue. as armin is telling annie how important it is that paradis hears their story, there’s just panels of how onya, levi, etc looks like. yelena wasn’t there at all. the anime really did everyone justice.
even on my second reread of the whole manga, the ending just left me feeling really really empty and bummed out. it felt like nothing everyone ever did mattered. it was abrupt i guess? the anime better communicated the idea that YES while there will always be “titans”, aka war, violence, cruelty, no matter what, you can still hang onto hope. there is still love to be found.
really if aot was given a happy, everything worked out ending, then that would’ve made everything before that utterly pointless. aot was ALWAYS about love and hope in the face of death and cruelty. humanity will never not be human.
specifically in the final scene with the boy and the dog going to the hole in the tree, he has THE CHOICE to go in. unlike ymir, he isn’t being forced to hide and most likely die. could the worm be there? yes sure. it symbolizes that cycle of violence, but in this case, the boy has the FREEDOM to do what he chooses.
aot was always nuanced. there was NEVER any morally best or morally worst characters. everyone had sympathetic reasons, even when they did horrible things. i appreciate the tenacity(?) isayama had to tell a story like that. to this day and most likely forever, every fan will be divided on every damn thing. but that has nothing to do with how great the ending is (to me at least).
so tldr, the way the anime handled the ending made me love the ending period.
here’s a little more of my thoughts btw

Mikasa shouldn't have been written as Ymir's parallel cause it ruined the story
I think Isayama's goal for the last ep or chap was to shoe-horn eremika to sell that Mikasa merch(yes, i am calling it shoe-horning cause there was no compelling build-up. it's so fucking one-sided). It was no longer about the plot or the characters because he threw plot and character consistency out of the window to force Mikasa into becoming a central character (which she's not).
But if he badly wants to make this shit canon, then he could've just not force the Ymir-Mikasa parallel or have Mikasa be the one to free Ymir. I thought it was Eren who freed her but if he wants a fucking parallel give it to another character who would make more sense.
If Isayama really wants Eren to lose and proclaim his love for her, he could have written something like 'Tell Mikasa that I love her and I'm sorry" to Armin. None of that Ymir chose Mikasa bullshit cause only Ymir knows.
Granted this ending wouldn't be perfect. It would be mid, but at least it wouldn't have devolved in aot being about a one-sided love story. If Eren just randomly said he loves Mikasa before dying (without the Ymir-Mikasa parallel bullcrap), I'd find it odd but I'd prob be able to accept it. It would still be odd cause it wasn't established but at least it wouldn't retcon most of the characters and the themes.
Like Isayama wasn't perfect. There are writing choices which I find odd because it wasn't established like aruannie, the Reiner transferring his consciousness in retaking shigashina arc, or Armin not dying after being burned to a crisp and falling from a 50m drop. But I was able to accept it because these did not puncture a plot hole so big that it would make the story contradict itself.
It's so funny that Isayama has to puncture holes into his story to force the relevance of this ship.

Who else here......
Is absolutely not going to watch the AOT finale?
I would sooner throw myself in the path of a speeding car. The ending is still a horrendous finish that doesn't begin to make up for so many plot holes and half assed resolutions that carried over from the manga ending.
You cannot hide its failings with Mappa's overblown, still rather ugly animation and self aggrandizing music.
Also fuck you Isayama, my girls Sasha and Hange should NEVER have been subjected to that kind of finish. Everyone deserves better.
Hell's got your reservation, pal.

LOOK AT THIS POINT
No, really, take a look at it.
Tumblr media
For at 17:23 CEST, on September 23rd of the Year of our Lord 2023, I have finished the first draft of the 15th and last installment of Clarity.
Peeps, I am grieving.
When I set out to put this story into words, I had never written anything beyond 10K. The idea of doing a chaptered story, a slow burn at that, was so foreign to me. I was convinced I'd either solve the plot in 3-4 chapters or, as it's happened to me in the past, I'd lose faith in the story and ditch it, and it'd become one of those abandoned fics we all hate to love.
It wasn't easy, not just because I'm writing in a language not my own. Some of the scenes I'd played dozens of times in my mind before sitting to write them, and then they would... jut not come out? Emotionally charged scenes drain me; Blorbo's feels are my feels. I felt insecure about a myriad things that I'm not experienced about, or didn't do the research about, or just plain thought were too silly or self indulgent for others to like.
I got caught in the rabbit whole of worldbuilding, and created props and hid them as easter eggs and no one but one person found them but I had a blast anyhow.
I got also caught in the rabbit hole of tea and drank a ridiculous amount of it to create a menu and make it more than just a character quirk.
I had lots of fum coming up with the fake preview posts before every chapter (did you getthe hidden message in the last one? did you?)
Most of all, I rekindled my love of writing and I've found amazing people in the fandom, fellow delulus from all around the globe who support and inspire each other and (gasp!) even liked my fic.
Thank you all who accompanied me in this amazing journey, be it by reading, commenting, kudosing, or just supporting me with likes and reblogs here. Special shout-outs to @chaosisbeauty23, one of the most talented fic writers out there, for sharing so much of my delulu as well as the outlook on life of us the not-so-young ones; @onigiri-dorkk my first fandom friend here, for being a ray of sunshine and always encourage and support fellow fans; @bryhaven (even if idk when you'll read this) for your amazing feedback; @ash-aot for bringing my fic to life with your lovely voice; @binibchielq for creating a safespace for us rm spawnlings; @lucysarah-c for the "aguante" and the fandom talks with Argentine taste; @lividayis for the beautiful fanart you created for my humble story.
The party isn't over yet though! I still have to edit this, as well as a last look at ch. 14 before I upload it, but this is it for this story for now. While I still have ideas in the Clarity universe, I would also like to chase other things and/or take a break. In the meantime, Thank you thank you thank you!!!!

Lycoris recoil
Genre: Action
Warnings: Violence/ Blood
You want a ridiculous anime? You got one! (stick with me for this one)
A secret Japanese organisation fights terrorism by training orphaned teenage girls to be unparalleled assassins called Lycoris. The two Lycoris, Chisato and Takina, become partners after a rash decision causes Takina to be kicked out of headquarters. That’s how she meets Chisato, Lycoris prodigy, who is determined to show her there’s more to a Lycoris’ life outside of headquarters.
I know it sounds stupid but I swear you’ll be glad you watched this.
First of all, yes, I’m aware how ridiculous 16 year old assassins that fight terrorism are. I’m also aware this is a fictional work and I can appreciate ridiculousness because Attack on Titan is just as ridiculous if you think about it but it’s just set in a different world so everyone loves AoT.
Second of all, I also know that the reason Chisato is so OP is absolutely stupid but once again. This is an anime that just decides to really go for ridiculous and I’m here for it.
I have watched anime after anime of ridiculous male leads with stupid strong powers where they manage to do the most insane shit and that anime is still considered good *cough*Devilman Crybaby*cough*.
Thing is, the point of this anime is not the Lycoris. It’s not the fighting. It’s Chisato and Takina and the fact that if you add a confession scene, this anime would’ve been the best fucking yuri ever. I will die on this hill, we got queerbaited HARD and you know what? I ate it up. Gimme more. I know those girls are lesbians and they will one day realise they’ve been sitting in a glass closet with no doors.
Moving on from the queerbait tho, while the plot was a bit…. hole-y, I actually found the character writing very good and I’m sure people will disagree with me. But watching Chisato and Takina (even outside the queerbait) I thought that they were two very well rounded characters with interesting personalities and clear ambitions. Plus (and I’m aware the bar is on the floor) but god bless the artists for designing uniforms that made sense and didn’t sexualise them.
Overall I think that this is a great anime. Fight me.
Tumblr media
(I dare you to say they’re not in love)
Thanks for reading another anime ramble! Enjoy watching :)

So with the alleged S4 pt18 super final last season AoT “leak” going around over on 🤢twitter🤢, I figured now was as good a time as any to state my take on the whole AoE thing. Obviously major spoilers under the cut for the manga end so read at your own risk:
Controversial opinion, but I really don’t want an anime original ending.
Not that the manga ending was amazing or anything, far from it imo. It just that for an anime as heavy as AoT, having an open end with Mikasa, Levi, Armin, Jean, Connie, et al surviving was kinda the best case. Eren being hailed as a hero I could do without, but ultimately, having the remaining scouts have a chance at peace and a normal life after everything they went through is nice.
And in my shipper brain, having Mikasa and Levi survive leaves the door open for them to build a life and a family together in peace. It allows them some softness in their lives that had been completely missing. It gives them the space to grow beyond “Humanity’s Strongest”. To just be Mikasa Ackerman and not “The Woman Worth 100 Soldiers”. To be Levi Ackerman and not “Humanity’s Strongest”.
And when you have an anime original ending where, if AnR is to be believed, everyone dies or even just Mikasa dies, it feels super shitty. Like super super shitty. AoT has always sorta been an anime about hope. Hope for a better tomorrow. Hope for the future. Hope for peace. And yeah, maybe it lost that message in the dumpster fire that was the Marley arch, but the manga end just reflects that hope. Yes the world is in a shit place after Eren’s stupid fuckery, but you can hope that, at least for the remainder of the scouts time, and likely their children’s time, they got to know peace and love and rest.
Killing everyone off denies them that joy and ultimately, I feel it twists and taints the message that AoT was trying to deliver. What is the reason for it in the story? So Eren can have “man pain” for the rest of his life?? What kind of an end is that for Historia? She gets to watch remorse tear her husband/lover apart for the rest of his life, while simultaneously being saddled with the knowledge that she might have been able to prevent it?
Mikasa killing Eren was a gift (that gross ass kiss excluded). It was the moment when she FINALLY realized that Eren was not the pure sunshine boy she had seen him as. She finally took of her rose tinted glasses and realized the Eren she had known and loved had died a long time ago and the Eren before her was who he really was: A 19-20 year old playing at god, because he selfishly thought he knew best. And I think she spent the next three years not only grieving Eren, but beating herself up for not seeing it sooner, for not steering him away from the path he took. For breaking her promise to Carla. If she gets killed and then gets to meet Eren again in scout heaven then that whole opportunity for growth is gone and she dies as she lived, seeing Eren as faultless.
I’m not going to go into all the massive plot holes in the end, that’s a rant for another post, (seriously though EVERY nation sided with Marley?? Even the ones that had been colonized???) but the manga as written, however shitty, ultimately had a half decent ending, and if AoE happens and everyone but Eren gets killed, I’m going to be so disappointed. AoT was never going to have a happy ending, but it had a hopeful one, and I think that should stay in place.

If the Scouts were so unpopular with the citizens in the Walls and were constantly on the verge of dissolution, what they needed to do was make the pointless expeditions less about exploration/titan research and more about foraging for food to bring back to the people.  Not only is this infinitely more useful, but more people might’ve enlisted because dying by defending a wagon of fresh game from a rampaging titan is a lot more honorable than riding out to ‘survey’ and dying with few, if any, results.
And Sasha might’ve gone down in history as the greatest Scout of all time.

⛸️ Yuri!!! On ICE Review! 🏳️‍🌈
Hello! Welcome to a new anime review, everyone! In this one, I'll review a classic among the classics: Yuri!!! On ICE!
Tumblr media
Before we begin, I'd like to ask any homophobe reading this to brace themselves, as this will probably hurt their fragile ego. Also, please do not be homophobic; thank you :)
Now, Yuri!!! On ICE aired in 2016 and has twelve episodes. As you may have surmised, it deals with ice skating with a romantic subtext. Surprisingly, it's a very mature anime that will resonate more with adults than kids!
To start, I have to point out that this anime has some vibes that remind me of my favorite anime, Your Lie In April. That, in and of itself, makes for a strength in my book. It's also somewhat similar to Free! if some of you have watched this series.
The plot is a mere character development device, so I won't write an essay about it. It does its job and does it well, even if it's fast-paced.
Ah, the cast... well, it's very gay. I think that sums it up quite well. More seriously, it's got a decent cast with a good duo of main characters and an okay third wheel. The side cast is hit-or-miss, with one a-hole and some pretty cool characters. But yeah, very gay.
The main strength of Yuri!!! On ICE is its character dynamics. It's a short anime but has excellent character dynamics. It has some romantic, sensual, and even sexual vibes that separate it from the rest. It's nothing NSFW, but pretty unusual nonetheless.
The focus on the leading duo shows the story's maturity, although I'll admit I didn't like the dynamics with the third MC quite as much. It's minor, though, and doesn't hurt the experience much.
Yuuri, the protagonist, is a sort of Kousei Arima with Shinichi Izumi's character design. I think there was room to improve his character (his humor, especially), but he's a good protag.
Victor, the second member of the leading duo, is also a good character with fewer flaws than Yuuri, in my opinion. His character was more complete, to begin with, so I suppose it was easier. They make for an adorable duo, though, no questions asked.
Damn, this anime's got good music. Of course, ice skating relies heavily on music, so it makes total sense, but still. Big YLIA vibes here with some classical pieces.
THE OPENING. History Maker, by Dean Fujioka, is one of the best openings I've ever heard. Possibly the most fitting of its anime, too. It falls really short of my top five, honestly. I'll be listening to it a lot in the near future, that's for sure.
Visually, Yuri!!! On ICE has good animation and decent art. It was actually made by MAPPA, which surprised me when I saw it since they're usually known for their shonen anime (JJK, CSM, AOT Last Season...).
Overall, this anime is an experience. It's nowhere near my favorite anime or even my top ten, but it's intriguing, to be sure. I would recommend it!
Down below is the tierlist for the characters in this anime!
Tumblr media
...I'm just kidding, haha. But, honestly, this might be the most realistic tierlist you'll find for this anime. More seriously, down below is the true tierlist. Thank you for reading this review!

Attack On Titan's Anime Original Ending
I have an unhealthy obsession with this animanga. There, I said it. No, but really, it’s more than just love. You know I parade it around like it’s a gift to humanity from god and it’s the perfect work of fiction, but it’s not (UNLESS you scrap everything past chapter 90 in which case yes it is perfect. I’d rather have a partial conclusion than an awkward one.), because we got Game Of Thronesed. With the release of the final chapter, the fanbase was extremely divisive, and with the 8 extra pages included later on because only god knows why, everyone just hated the whole thing. And that gave birth to AOE, Anime Original Ending, because you know, AoT, AoE, you get the point. When I caught up to the manga in 2021, it was at 137 and I read every chapter (2) since then in the few minutes since release, and I was pretty much okay with it. Like it was not the masterpiece I expected from Hajime Isayama (I also have a huge problem with idolisation. Like every single person I idolized has let me down terribly. Thank god I still have Toby Fox and Tatsuki Fujimoto.), but still, it was just fine. I just went two years pretending that never happened and Attack On Titan is still the same perfect manga that inspired me to pursue writing. 
That was until last Wednesday, when I went down the AOE rabbit hole and spent like 24 hours doing nothing but that. I slept like 2 hours in between I think. And now I have crippling anxiety about the last episode of the anime. As a redditor aptly put it
 “If it happens Yams will turn into one of the greatest creators of fiction in history
If it doesn't he will turn into one of the greatest clowns in fiction history”.
I’ve read every theory that people have written in the subreddit, and it’s pretty compelling. There are some subtle differences between the anime and the manga that could either be just because he forgor or foreshadowing, and knowing Isayama, it’s highly likely the latter. Seriously, the plot consistency and subtle symbolism and foreshadowing and the storytelling quality of everything up till chapter 90 is unparalleled, so as awkward as the rest of it was, I’m still holding out hope. If the last episode just turns out to be a straight adaptation I am going to be so pissed because with how much evidence there is it just feels like the dumbest freaking thing to do. I would agree that some parts are a bit of a reach but like, the rest? Impeccable. I kinda wish I didn’t read the theories like before when I thought this was just delusional because if this happens, this is going to be like the biggest thing to happen in anime history. It would be flipping game changing.
I know I shouldn’t care this much, it’s just a dumb anime, who cares, right? But as I alluded to before, I have sort of a personal connection to this, even when I joined at like the very end of it. I was born too late :(, I would have been 7 when the first season aired. It meant so much to me even when I joined this late, imagine how much more it would have been if I had been reading it as it aired (emphasis on read, because Season 2 came out a whopping 4 years after Season 1.) I really hated doing art as a child. Not because I had a distaste for it, but I was kind of a perfectionist. I didn’t want to make anything that wasn’t a masterpiece. It’s dumb, and I still have that feeling, but seeing Isayama make such a storytelling marvel at his first shot at a serialized manga, that was really inspiring (and caused me to set a nigh-unattainable goal :P). It is dumb, but I hope you see now why I want to see it become the best that it can be. There is just so much freaking potential in all the theories that I have read. I know I’m hoping for too much but I just can’t accept the fact that it has such a mediocre ending. \*sigh\* I really need to get a life don’t I?

Can I just say I love Tulia ✨✨ She is so badass and sweet and finally Jean gets someone! How would you describe her personality tho? Like it changed slightly in each book?
Also what is your fav Aot and jjjk book you wrote? They are all so unique and different, like I’ve never seen stories like those before since most stories follow similar themes and plot
Awww yay I’m glad you like her!!! I do change which aspects of her personality I focus on depending on the storyline of the book but overall (with the exception of pomegranate ink because everyone’s just goofy in that and the first half of endure because she was still a kid) she’s a pretty mature and self-assured person who’s very kind and wise. She does have a shorter temper though and her judgement can be clouded when she gets angry, and she can be reserved with people she doesn’t know. She is a pretty good judge of character though! And yes her and jean are so cute together I love them.
Hmmm I think for aot it would be a tie between ship in the harbor and endure. Endure is like a comfort because it’s (so far) the longest story I’ve ever written and the one most people have read and I feel like I learned a lot from it. However ship in the harbor is definitely my most creative and has the most complex characters (especially Y/N in that story she’s probably one of the most interesting characters I’ve written) and it really makes me go out of my comfort zone. It’s also going to end up as my longest story once I finish it so that’s cool. Honorable mention goes to the 13T series even though I don’t like the writing style anymore just because I like the mythology I came up with for it.
For jjk I feel like all of my fics are very different and I like them in different ways. Pomegranate Ink is very lighthearted and fun (although there is angst planned for later on dw!) so it’s good to just feel good. I think icoamd has the best worldbuilding for sure and it has the most to be explored — for example, my favorite relationship in that story is between Y/N and a character that hasn’t even been named in the story yet. And then I love h / h because it’s the kind of fic which is almost even better when you know what’s happening due to how many plot twists are in it.
Thank you!! When I’m coming up with plots for my fics I have two methods: if it’s a canon au, I look for ‘holes’ in the story that the author did not necessarily explore to the fullest. I think the best example of that would be promise Y/N being an MP which there are no main characters in aot who are MPs (i guess besides annie and hitch but annie is only there as an MP for a season and hitch isn’t really a main character). If I’m coming up with my own world building, I try to think about what I want to happen in the story and then come up with plausible reasons for it — like in icoamd, I wanted Megumi to be Y/N’s guard but for it to be a very forbidden relationship, which meant she had to be engaged but with no chance of falling in love with her husband, so I made her future husband wayyy older than her. Then the question became why is she marrying someone so much older than her?? Because she’s a royal, marrying for an alliance to stop a war made sense, but then there had to be a reason for the war (which there is, Y/N just doesn’t know it yet). From there it comes down to research and referencing history to try and be somewhat accurate.

Hii regarding your tags on that autism fueled-rant post, you mentioned talking about the ramifications that the aftermath of the rumbling would have and!! I have been thinking about that nonstop for the past couple of weeks and I’ve been searching everywhere for posts discussing it and I haven’t found much in depth stuff!! I haven’t read the entire manga but I have read the conclusion and I really don’t like how it just timeskips and doesn’t discuss much about what life is like after. So rn I’m working on a post-rumbling fic to fill in the blanks of what things would be like the following year. If you’re cool with exchanging ideas about it, what do you think would have transpired?
MANNNN you have no idea how long i've wanted to talk to someone abt this!!! i totally feel your pain😭
sooo we know that the world map of aot is just backwards + upside down version of the real world. this is even more supported by names like the Port of Acrifa (Africa) and Salta (Atlas) - to explain the names of regions in the map below.
what we don't know is just about everything else. cultures, technology, populations everywhere except for Paradis, Marley (and very roughly) Hizuru? nope. so this is going to require some speculating.
credit to this reddit post for the best approximation of aot's world map.
I highlighted Paradis in yellow, marked L for Liberio, and i marked X where Fort Salta is. really all you need to know about that place (if you don't already) is that's where the Rumbling stops.
therefore, the Rumbling got this far:
Tumblr media
so, what the fuck does THIS mean?
WELL FIRST OF ALL...
this is a map of where the Walls are canonically situated on Paradis Island:
Tumblr media
...did Eren actually get the Titans to stomp out all life on the majority of the fucking island???? did the Wall Titans just step around all people inhabiting those areas?? are there enough gaps between the individual Wall Titans to preserve the island?
also, did just the Wall Maria Titans walk? otherwise the only preserved part of Paradis would be all the land in Wall Sina.
if i'm missing something, please let me know. i'm going to operate on the assumption that it's a plot hole, because otherwise, Paradis would be a destroyed nation after the Rumbling.
therefore, the timeskip where Paradis is shown to be a thriving fascist military state simple wouldn't make sense.
moving on, during the Rumbling, 80% of humanity is just exterminated. so the vast majority of the human population was apparently concentrated in Marley (the African continent), and parts of the Middle East and Asia.
we're never given a number for the human population on AOT's earth before the rumbling, but say we placed it at 1.5 billion like our earth in 1920—to adjust for the technology apparently available seen mostly in Marley (black and white photographs, model-t cars, etc).
120 million people. so it seems a bit more realistic that 120 million people could be left in the unshaded region.
it doesn't need to be said that Marley has practically been wiped out. so what does that mean for the world?
at best, it's gone from the leading world power to a “third-world” country. That's pretty much the bulk of the devastation from a political perspective, but the leading world power is gone.
imagine modern China or the USA just disappearing off the face of the earth. Marley contained the majority of the world's population too. so total economic collapse, right?? a global recession, economic ruin for decades to come.
would war immediately break out for that land?
FUCK NO!! it's pure wasteland coated with blood, flattened ruin, and carrion. totally inhospitable. there is nothing left. (that's depicted in a panel from ch139 that i won't show just in case of spoilers.)
but you can bet your ass that nations after the Rumbling are going to turn on Paradis. right, Eren frightened the world into submission—but he said himself that it'll be decades before there's a counterattack. so in the meantime, Paradis canonically becomes a fascist military state.
WORLD WAR.
a few decades after the Rumbling ends, there will be all-out war, and not just out of the fear and hatred we're familiar with.
however, in the following year like you asked, by-far i imagine people globally would be in a complete state of shock, still reeling—especially politically—from the devastation. that's the best way I would sum it up.
probably imagine the state of the world after WW2, except the political and socio-economic equivalent of the USA and parts of western Europe were bombed into nothingness.
and resources?
what effect did such decimation of life on earth the Rumbling caused do to the entire continent of (what is) Africa, the Middle East and a part of Asia?
i don't know enough about Africa, the Middle East and Asia to explain accurately, honestly. but undoubtedly, Eren fucked everyone over in severe respects globally and he didn't even succeed in exterminating humanity.
But also, we can't assume that the world of AOT is a perfect replica of our own in terms of... well, anything besides size and climate. the most useful info we know is that the vast majority of the world's population is (was) situated in those places.

the majority of the world's deserts and tropical grasslands + much of the grassland is just.... gone.
so much farmland. at least I don't think that the world would be starving, but considering the economic breakdown i mentioned earlier, there would be plenty of anarchy in the first year following the Rumbling.
surely there would be a global shortage of oil? essential minerals found only in deserts? many types of animals would be extinct or pushed to the brink of it.
as for the ocean, Wall Titans are seen swimming through it, but what kind of impact would all that heat have on marine life?? NOT GOOD ONES.
sorry that i'm simply not knowledgable enough to give out many specifics, but for anyone who is, please add on if you'd like :) there's a ton of factors to consider in what the world would be like post-Rumbling, many of which i think would have to be filled in by fans since Isayama doesn't fill many blanks.
