[00:00] ---
    We die trusting the living who follow
    to find meaning in our lives!
[00:06] ---
    That is the sole method in which
    we can rebel against this cruel world!
[00:12] ---
    My soldiers, rage!
[00:14] ---
    My soldiers, scream!
[00:16] ---
    My soldiers, fight!
[00:32] ---
    The commander!
[00:34] ---
    Don't look back! Charge!
[02:09] ---
    "Hero"
[02:21] ---
    How pitiful...
[02:24] ---
    To never learn from the mistakes of history...
[02:27] ---
    It's a tragedy how King Reiss
    stole their memories of the world.
[02:32] ---
    That's why they're repeating the same mistakes.
[02:35] ---
    In the end, they'll send every
    last person in the walls,
[02:39] ---
    down to the children and
    elderly, on a suicide charge.
[02:43] ---
    Saying if they're going to die,
    they may as well die proud.
[02:46] ---
    It's bullshit!
[02:50] ---
    I crushed it into dust?
[02:54] ---
    What's gotten into me?
[02:56] ---
    Why are you getting worked up?
[02:59] ---
    You're not like your father, right?
[03:01] ---
    You've gotta try to enjoy things.
[03:04] ---
    So let's turn them all into
    proud little chunks of meat!
[03:08] ---
    The second volley is coming! Fire!
[03:17] ---
    It's coming...
[03:23] ---
    Is this how I die?
[03:27] ---
    I wonder what Hitch is doing...
[03:31] ---
    Wait, I bet she's still in bed...
[03:36] ---
    Sounds nice...
[03:38] ---
    I don't get it... Why am I,
    at a time like this...?
[03:53] ---
    Yeah!
[03:55] ---
    Game over!
[03:57] ---
    You like that? I changed how I threw the pitch.
[04:01] ---
    Now you're done for.
[04:09] ---
    Fire!
[04:14] ---
    Like I said... How is firing those
    things going to help you?
[04:21] ---
    All that screaming...
    What good is it going to do you?!
[04:36] ---
    Aww, you poor things...
[04:42] ---
    Hmm?
[04:45] ---
    What's that?
[04:47] ---
    My Titans have fallen...
[05:03] ---
    Huh?
[05:04] ---
    I need to watch out for a single soldier?
[05:07] ---
    Yes. Captain Levi is dangerous.
[05:11] ---
    Is this Levi?
[05:14] ---
    My nape!
[05:18] ---
    What the--?
[05:19] ---
    I can't see a thing!
[05:22] ---
    Did he take out my eyes?
[05:25] ---
    My legs!
[05:28] ---
    What happened to all that fun you were having?!
[05:34] ---
    Tsk! I'll harden!
[05:35] ---
    Shoot, I won't make it!
[05:37] ---
    Come on, let's try to enjoy this!
[06:02] ---
    After transforming, if your
    body's severely damaged,
[06:06] ---
    it's too busy healing to let you transform.
[06:09] ---
    Isn't that right?
[06:14] ---
    Hey, answer me.
[06:16] ---
    Learn some manners.
[06:19] ---
    I can't kill him yet...
[06:22] ---
    Isn't anyone out there still alive?
[06:26] ---
    If they are, even on the brink of death,
    this injection will make them a Titan.
[06:33] ---
    We can have them eat this guy
    and steal the Beast Titan's power.
[06:38] ---
    Someone, just one...
[06:40] ---
    ...I can bring back to life.
[06:58] ---
    Hey...
[06:59] ---
    Where are you going? Stop...
[07:02] ---
    All of you! Go kill him!
[07:13] ---
    It hurts! You've done it now, Levi!
[07:16] ---
    It hurts!
[07:18] ---
    But your weapons have to be all used up.
[07:21] ---
    With this, you'll all be wiped out!
[07:23] ---
    That might've been a close one,
    but victory is ours!
[07:27] ---
    Wait...
[07:29] ---
    I made a promise to him...
[07:33] ---
    ...that I'd kill you no matter what.
[07:37] ---
    I promised!
[07:47] ---
    Why... am I... alive?
[07:52] ---
    The others...
[07:56] ---
    Hey!
[07:58] ---
    Is anyone else alive?!
[08:06] ---
    That bastard...
[08:08] ---
    To think he's seriously alive...
[08:11] ---
    Why won't he just stay dead?
[08:14] ---
    What the hell do we do...
    against something like that?!
[08:19] ---
    Hey, Armin...
[08:21] ---
    I think having Eren escape
    is the best we can do.
[08:25] ---
    He's thinner...
[08:27] ---
    Huh?
[08:28] ---
    The Colossal Titan has gotten a little skinnier.
[08:33] ---
    It's just like Hange said!
[08:36] ---
    The Colossal Titan is weak
    in a battle of attrition!
[08:40] ---
    Remember Eren's experiments!
[08:43] ---
    He could only transform up to three times.
[08:46] ---
    If that's the case for a 15-meter Titan,
    a 60-meter one might be less efficient!
[08:52] ---
    And there's his steam attack, too!
[08:54] ---
    I bet it's consuming everything except
    his skeleton to produce that steam!
[09:01] ---
    So what are you saying?
[09:03] ---
    Armin...
[09:04] ---
    I have a plan.
[09:06] ---
    You all need to draw Reiner away.
[09:08] ---
    Eren and I will defeat Bertholdt ourselves.
[09:14] ---
    The two of us can win and I'm going to prove it.
[09:19] ---
    All right. Leave Reiner to the rest of us.
[09:24] ---
    Took long enough, dummy.
[09:27] ---
    I really thought we were goners.
[09:35] ---
    I don't know why, but when it comes
    to taking back freedom...
[09:43] ---
    ...strength flows through me.
[09:54] ---
    If this plan goes well, I...
[09:58] ---
    ...I won't get to look at the sea...
[10:03] ---
    For some reason, when I think
    of the outside world...
[10:07] ---
    ...courage flows through me.
[10:15] ---
    Eren, wake up!
[10:20] ---
    Let's go look at the sea!
SIGN    "Information Available for Public Disclosure" "The Outside World" "It's said a world beyond our wildest dreams extends outside the walls. It has fiery waters, lands of ice, sandy snowfields, and a saltwater lake called the sea that stretches far past the horizon. Some have joined the Scout Regiment to fight solely because seeing it is their dream."
[10:47] ---
    Eren, that sums up my plan.
[10:51] ---
    As long as we properly execute it
    and manage to trick Bertholdt,
[10:57] ---
    this battle... is ours for the taking.
[11:02] ---
    Got it?! We've gotta trust that Eren
    and Armin can handle Bertholdt!
[11:07] ---
    We just need to keep Reiner
    away from them if we can!
[11:11] ---
    Let's keep him occupied from a safe distance!
[11:14] ---
    Roger!
[11:22] ---
    He ignored us?!
[11:23] ---
    That jerk! He's changing his focus to Eren?
[11:28] ---
    We'll just have to kill him!
[11:29] ---
    Mikasa!
[11:51] ---
    Hey!
[11:52] ---
    If we can't get Reiner's attention,
    we have to finish him off right here!
[11:56] ---
    It's on us to protect Eren and Armin!
[12:00] ---
    Yeah, I know...
[12:02] ---
    We've only got three Thunder Spears left!
[12:04] ---
    Shit! But...
[12:06] ---
    We've gotta try anyways!
[12:08] ---
    'Cuz unless we fight, we can't win!
[12:12] ---
    What was that? What got me?
[12:16] ---
    A single attack took out my knee...
[12:19] ---
    I can't remember much since then...
[12:23] ---
    I'm blowing this whole area away.
[12:25] ---
    If you can, lie down with your
    Titan body facing upwards.
[12:30] ---
    Bertholdt...
[12:32] ---
    What the hell happened to me?
[12:35] ---
    I don't know what's going on...
    and I don't have much strength left.
[12:40] ---
    But... I know Eren's over there.
[12:43] ---
    And as long as we capture Eren,
    that should still mean that we win.
[12:49] ---
    Isn't that right, Bertholdt?
[12:51] ---
    I'll deal with these chumps quickly...
    and come running to back you up.
[12:57] ---
    Reiner must be facing the four
    who went that way.
[13:00] ---
    Strange... Only Eren and those guys
    in the 104th survived the explosion?
[13:07] ---
    To be perfectly honest,
    I hoped to blow everyone up.
[13:12] ---
    But I'm used to these sorts of trials, Armin...
[13:16] ---
    What's the point of waking Eren
    when he's all battered like that?
[13:20] ---
    I want you to show me.
[13:22] ---
    What will you leave behind
    in your final moments?
[13:27] ---
    I know it's a plan I thought up myself,
[13:30] ---
    but its success mostly depends on
    how long I can hold out for.
[13:37] ---
    Armin, don't tell me you're...
[13:40] ---
    Eren... Sorry, but I can't die
    till I look at the sea.
[13:45] ---
    So I'll have to call it quits
    before it gets out of hand.
[13:49] ---
    The rest is up to you.
[13:51] ---
    Y-You know, because I'm just not a hero.
[13:55] ---
    No... You're wrong...
[13:58] ---
    The Armin I know is...
[14:01] ---
    Eren... You should know.
[14:04] ---
    We promised to go to the sea together, right?
[14:07] ---
    Have I ever lied to you in my life?
[14:14] ---
    So no matter what happens,
    stick to my plan till the end!
[14:33] ---
    Sh-Shit...
[14:42] ---
    Eren!
[14:44] ---
    I knew it... This battle is already won.
[14:48] ---
    He probably has a severe concussion
    and can't even stand on his own.
[14:55] ---
    Enough of this...
[14:57] ---
    Let's end it!
[15:11] ---
    Armin...
[15:13] ---
    All the way to the very end...
[15:16] ---
    ...you fought well.
[15:22] ---
    Eren! Armin!
[15:25] ---
    No... We left it to them...
[15:28] ---
    We're going to kill Reiner.
[15:30] ---
    If there's one way to take Reiner out
    with three Thunder Spears, this is it.
[15:36] ---
    We'll pick a fight with him
    while he still can't move.
[15:39] ---
    Either way this fight goes,
    this is where it ends.
[15:45] ---
    Bring it on.
[15:52] ---
    Reiner!
[15:57] ---
    First, I go as the decoy.
[16:01] ---
    Conny and Sasha will follow
    with two Thunder Spears...
[16:05] ---
    ...and aim for Reiner's jaw from both sides!
[16:15] ---
    Sasha!
[16:16] ---
    Jean!
[16:19] ---
    One of them missed...
[16:23] ---
    If we blow off his jaw,
    Reiner's mouth should open up!
[16:26] ---
    Mikasa can use the last Thunder Spear
    to hit his nape through the mouth!
[16:32] ---
    His mouth isn't open...
[16:34] ---
    Even so, I have to do it!
[16:41] ---
    Why?
[16:42] ---
    I can't blow Armin away...
[16:45] ---
    Why won't his anchor come loose?
[16:47] ---
    He shouldn't even be able to get close!
[16:51] ---
    I knew it...
[16:53] ---
    His bones aren't being consumed!
[16:55] ---
    The anchors stay put if they're not in muscle!
[16:58] ---
    But most importantly, he can't move
    his body while he's emitting steam!
[17:04] ---
    But, Armin... Is this how you go out?
[17:08] ---
    In all your wisdom, the best plan
    you could come up with...
[17:12] ---
    ...was to get scorched to death like this?
[17:17] ---
    I can't breathe! I have to let go...
[17:20] ---
    No! Not yet!
[17:23] ---
    It's not enough!
[17:25] ---
    I've gotta buy more time!
[17:29] ---
    What's he trying to accomplish? A diversion?
[17:32] ---
    But Eren's still beat to a pulp over there.
[17:35] ---
    Mikasa and them have their
    hands full with Reiner.
[17:39] ---
    There isn't anything else to it?
[17:42] ---
    If this really is the end for you...
[17:45] ---
    All right... I'll make it quick for you.
[17:53] ---
    Hold on!
[17:55] ---
    Don't let go!
[17:57] ---
    I entrust it to Eren!
[18:00] ---
    My dreams... My life... Everything!
[18:04] ---
    This is the one and only thing I have to give!
[18:10] ---
    I'm sure...
[18:12] ---
    ...Eren will...
[18:14] ---
    ...reach... the sea...!
[18:19] ---
    He'll look at...
[18:22] ---
    ...the sea for me!
[18:32] ---
    Mikasa! It's too risky!
[18:34] ---
    No, it's perfect!
[18:47] ---
    Hange!
[18:50] ---
    Now's your chance, Mikasa!
[18:57] ---
    She can't be...
[18:59] ---
    Reiner!
[19:00] ---
    Come out!
[19:16] ---
    It's over...
[19:20] ---
    Next is Eren and the horses...
[19:29] ---
    That's...
[19:32] ---
    ...hardening?
[19:40] ---
    Gotcha!
[19:55] ---
    A diversion?!
[19:58] ---
    Which means Eren tricking me
    into thinking he couldn't move...
[20:02] ---
    ...and all Armin's stalling...
[20:04] ---
    ...was just to buy Eren enough time
    to make a replica hardened Titan!
[20:17] ---
    They did it... to make me think
    there weren't any enemies nearby...
[20:22] ---
    To make me... lower my guard...
[20:53] ---
    Have I ever lied to you in my life?
[20:58] ---
    Dammit, I should've known...
[21:06] ---
    Hey, why don't you fight back?
[21:09] ---
    Huh?
[21:13] ---
    They pick on you 'cuz you don't hit back.
[21:15] ---
    Are you fine with losing forever?
[21:20] ---
    I'm... not losing.
[21:23] ---
    Huh?
[21:26] ---
    Because I don't run.
[21:35] ---
    Hey, what's your name?
[21:37] ---
    Huh?
[21:49] ---
    I knew... you were more of a hero...
[21:55] ---
    ...than anyone else.
[23:40] ---
    Finding resolve, Eren and the
    others defeat their enemies.
[23:44] ---
    However, what they lost cost
    more than what they won.
[23:48] ---
    The despair alone has left them stunned.
