However, this heightened homecoming is at its strongest during the muted moments of reflection. Emotions run high and everyone’s fragility is on display. It’s so powerful to have characters use the memories of fallen figures to prompt their own improvements. This is a nice parallel to Armin’s own ambivalence over his existence in this moment and how he still feels indebted to Erwin. He can’t help but feel that Sasha would also criticize him for his actions here and he’s left to wonder if the soldier that he’s become is someone who deserves to survive. He laments over the person that he’s become and how his mother would be ashamed of someone who gives her a second chance at the cost of a child. Armin holds himself to a high standard, but at this moment there’s no question that Erwin would be proud of him.įortunately, Armin’s selflessness is the catalyst for Connie’s change of heart. His attempt to sacrifice himself to save Falco is completely genuine and it’s another elegant occasion where the lines blur over who’s the real enemy. What’s so compelling about Connie’s struggle is that it becomes just as much of an opportunity for Armin to exhibit growth.Īrmin still carries the weight of Erwin’s loss on his shoulders and in his eyes he’s only failed to honor his fallen comrade’s legacy. Connie isn’t everyone’s favorite character and his plan to sacrifice Falco is reprehensible, but his desire to save his mother is something that anyone can understand. Lingering trauma is present in each of Attack on Titan’s soldiers and Connie’s perpetual pain stems back to the transformed Titan state that his mother remains trapped in. That is, of course, if it’s not completely trampled into oblivion. “Pride” is a cathartic episode for all of Attack on Titan’s characters as they’re given one last chance to confront their pasts before they decide who they want to be in this “free” world. Annie just went through this internal struggle with her father and now Connie is pushed to a breaking point as he considers the cost of “fixing” his mother. The first two-thirds of this final season have pushed every character into their own crises of faith as they examine the individuals that war has turned them into and how far removed these ideals are from why they first volunteered for this cause. So much of Attack on Titan’s final season has solidified the opposing forces in this war, but “Pride” continually rejects the past and emphasizes that it’s the current decisions that individuals make that determine who they really are. Pride is a transformative force that can be a poisonous venom when it’s abused, but this episode explores the healing grace of pride and what it’s capable of when it’s properly embraced among the right people. Pride and hubris are rampant in Attack on Titanright from the very first episode. The next episode, titled “Sunset,” will be released on Sunday, February 20 in the U.S.This Attack on Titan review contains spoilers. The release schedule for Attack on Titan has yet to change.

It delivered exciting sword fights against two-dimensional Titans with a banger of a song, all while ending in the climax to one of the show’s best character arcs yet. Last week’s episode gave us a thrilling and very nostalgic episode that showed just how far the story and the characters have come. It’s been nearly nine years, but Attack on Titanfinally brought one of its original antagonists back.
