The Final Chapters of Attack on Titan Manga: Countdown to the End

The Attack on Titan manga, a masterpiece by Hajime Isayama, came to a grand conclusion after 139 incredible chapters. The final chapter, Chapter 139, was released on April 9, 2021, marking the end of this legendary story. For those still following the series keenly, the manga concluded with a definitive resolution to the epic tale that captivated millions of readers.

Countdown to the Final Chapter

Just a year before the final chapter was revealed, another fan article excitedly informed readers that the manga was set to close with the release of Chapter 139 on April 9, 2021. This timeline provided a clear and exact end date, making it easier for fans to follow the series's progression. However, some fans had their own theories and predictions based on the release pattern of previous chapters.

Personal Predictions and Theories

Many fans, including some individuals who were closely following the series, had their own predictions. One such prediction assumed that the manga would end with the final battle already concluded, leaving only the denouement to complete the story. Another theory suggested that it would take approximately two chapters to conclude the final battle, followed by a denouement chapter.

Key Points of the Final Chapter: The final battle was wrapped up in what was originally considered the second to last chapter but revealed to be the second from the last. The story concludes with a denouement, providing a satisfying end to the narrative.

Revisiting Predictions

As the last chapter approached, one fan predicted that Chapter 137 or 138 would be the final chapter, sticking to the theory that it would take at least one or two more chapters to conclude the final battle and followed by a denouement. This prediction was based on Volume 32 ending with Chapter 134, suggesting that Volume 33 would end with Chapter 138 if the concluding chapters were of the usual length.

More recent insights have confirmed this theory. Chapter 136 marked a significant update, and with Chapter 137 revealing that it wouldn't be the last, the final chapter had to be re-evaluated. The original prediction was off by a chapter or two, covering the span from Chapter 135 to 139.

Conclusion and Final Release

The final chapter was indeed released on the scheduled date, April 9, 2021, concluding the manga series with Chapter 139. This marked the end of the grand finale and the resolution of the complex and intricate narrative developed over the years. The manga's finality came as a culmination of all the events and developments that have captivated its audience, making the final chapter poignant and meaningful.

For many, the release of the last chapter was a bittersweet moment, marking the end of a beloved series but also affirming the profound impact and legacy of Hajime Isayama's work.
