Attack On Titan is regarded as one of the best anime series to ever grace our screens. Topped with cliffhangers and mind-blowing plot twists, the post-apocalyptic show has become a global phenomenon, with season after season taking fans on a thrilling and dark journey.

“Do you always want to live hiding behind the mask you put up for the sake of others? You’re you, and there’s nothing wrong with that.” – Ymir Fritz

“We’re born free. All of us, free. Some don’t believe it; some try to take it away. To hell with them! Water like fire, mountains of ice, the whole bit—lay your eyes on that, and you’ll know what freedom is, that it’s worth fighting for!” – Eren Yeager

“It’s true, I did see everything on the other side of the ocean as my enemy. Then, I crossed it. I slept under the same roof as my enemies, and I ate the same food as them. Reiner, I’m the same as you. Sure, there were people who pissed me off, but there are good people too. Past the ocean, inside the walls, we are all the same.” – Eren Yeager
Tons of memes joke about how AOT should have stopped at that emotional last episode of season 3 with Eren pointing at the ocean. Because what happened next was just really too much to bear. But since the Attack On Titan fandom is basically a colossal bunch of masochists, they decided to go along with it, and whoever survived could enjoy one of the greatest action anime shows ever.
