Attack on Titan’s Eren Transcends Humanity in Horrifying New Fan Art

Warning Attack on Titan manga spoilers

New Attack on Titan fan art foretells Eren Yeager‘s plans for humanity, including three vital elements needed for his ascension.

Created by Hajime Isayama, Attack on Titan follows Eren and his pledge to exterminate all Titans, wreaking havoc on humanity. With the help of his best friends Mikasa Ackerman and Armin Arlet, the trio enlists in the Scout Regiment- a government military group focused on killing Titans. Along the way, the group uncovers the hidden truths residing beyond the three Walls of Paradis Island including the existence of Titans. As the wielder of the Attack Titan passed down by his father, Eren uses his Titan form to battle the Titans in hopes of restoring peace to the island. However, the closer he gets to unveiling the truth behind his Titan powers, the darker his path becomes in achieving his dreams.

On Twitter, @Shonenvibing revealed a haunting Attack on Titan fan art by artist @OmarvinG94. The fan piece shows Eren at the center of chaos, surrounded by the Rumbling Titans, Attack Titan, and founding Titan- Ymir Fritz. Serving as the head of all Titan creation, Ymir’s death brought forth the nine Titans- Founding Titan, Armored Titan, Attack Titan, Beast Titan, Cart Titan, Colossus Titan, Female Titan, Jaw Titan, and War Hammer Titan- all of which hailed upon her royal descendants. A story set from the original Attack on Titan 0 prototype involving Titan creation by cult environmentalists. The current Beast Titan, Zeke Yeager, is one of those descendants, and although he does not descend from royalty, Eren’s plans to wipe out the outside world conflict with his brother’s brainwashing euthanization plans.

The fan art perfectly illustrates Eren’s mass tirade for peace by activating the Rumbling, a horrific catalyst involving thousands of Colossal Titans to roam the Earth and reduce all life. After witnessing the future of the Rumbling through the Attack Titan’s power and having seen how the world views Eldians, Eren chose to protect his friends by becoming the villain of his own story. In his plans, Eren used Zeke to gain access to the Founding Titan so that he could transcend beyond humanity and thus begin the Rumbling.

While pushing away loved ones and sabotaging his relationship with Mikasa, Eren’s deceitfulness to his friends made sense.  He realized that without the destruction of the world’s population the fate of Paradis Island would have been met lost. Rather than bear the weight of humanity’s destruction Eren‘s sacrifice for his friends is a true testament to choosing the lesser of two evils in this mesmerizing  Attack on Titan fan art.
