Attack on Titan’s ending has been making waves among anime fans lately, as it has been compared to the controversial ending of Game of Thrones. Both franchises are adaptations of books and are seen as gateways to their respective worlds. The manga version of Attack on Titan has also been widely criticized for its controversial ending.
The success and failure of Attack on Titan and Game of Thrones are intertwined. Attack on Titan’s success has led the anime to global popularity and the creation of various spin-offs and merchandise over the last decade. Similarly, Game of Thrones has done the same for high fantasy, with its political intrigue and seemingly uninterested approach towards magic.
Interestingly, characters in Attack on Titan are even based on actors from Game of Thrones. However, the controversy lies in the final parts of both franchises. The final season of Game of Thrones was disappointing for some fans, creating an ironic comparison to Attack on Titan.
The controversial ending of Attack on Titan’s manga is worse than that of Game of Thrones. In the case of Game of Thrones, the quality began to decline drastically towards the end of the fifth season, when the showrunners had to deviate from the books. On the other hand, the ending of Attack on Titan has created a more chaotic situation.
Fans of Game of Thrones who are hoping for a better ending for the series can look forward to George R.R. Martin providing a satisfying ending in his books. Meanwhile, Attack on Titan offers the opportunity to see a better version of the manga’s ending brought to the small screen. After all, the final episode of this beloved anime will not be released until 2023, and the actors are expected to take note of the manga’s bad beta ending. (Damai Lestari)
