Armin’s entry in the fourth and final season of Attack on Titan left people in awe. With only seven episodes released between 2020-2021, Armin, the Colossal Titan holder, makes his entry while Eren and Co. fight off the Marleyan army.

Note: The following contains spoilers for Attack on Titan season 4, episode 7 by Hajime Isayama and Yūichirō Hayashi.

Attack on Titans is going strong with its final season, and the characters are putting everything at stake to win this fight. Eren’s genocidal plans are taking shape, and inadvertently he is hurting a lot of people, including his friends and family.

Eren’s big reveal in episode six

Eren finally confronted Reiner Braun and declared war on Marley. While the whole attack was pre-planned for months, its repercussions cost many innocent lives, and even Mikasa pointed out that this attack can never be justified. Eren announced the war, and by killing the Tybur family head, he has started the biggest titan war in history. To accompany the battle, the Survey corps arrived in Marley to control the situation once and for all.

Armin’s entry into the season

One of the biggest reveals after the four-year time skip is the arrival of Armin. Towards the end of season 3, Eren and co travel to the ocean and declare war on the rest of the world. However, in season 4, Armin’s entry to Marley signifies a pre-planned attack. Eren, who was living in Marley as a defeated soldier, planned the entire raid and even used poor Porco to send letters to his friends. But Armin’s entry to the battlefield was different, and he transformed from a boat that was sailing towards Marley. The 60-meter giant crushed the Marleyan navy, and he even killed the innocent Marleyan citizens.

Finally, after waiting for years, the final titan war is here from the Marleyan’s army - Beast Titan, Cart Titan, Warhammer titan, and the Jaw Titan fight on their grounds. From the Paradis island, Eren’s Attack Titan, Eren’s Founding Titan, Armin’s Colossal Titan, and the exceptionally skilled Survey Corps members battle towards their freedom from the rest of the world.

Armin’s transformation wipes out the entire port, and the shockwave destroys the nearby buildings, killing thousands of Marleyan women, children, and soldiers.

Conclusion

Now, both the team are pushing to win the battle, but Armin’s involvement changed the power level, and by the looks of it, the Paradis island might win the war against the Marleyan empire. So many things, families, and nations are at stake, and it is only a matter of time when one of the two sides will surrender in the biggest titan war ever.
