As one continues into the series, we start to see the clearing of the smokescreen as truths, even if currently fragmented, begin to emerge. Yet, the narrative's curiosity to sink deeper, uncovering the past and shaping humanity's future, enlarges the scope and density of its story. No longer is the plot of our protagonist to end this cruelty enough, and neither is it truly just his story alone. Hajime Isayame has slowly, thus far, chipped away at the human mould to eventually find the soul that would justify existence. When mortality is absolute, the ultimate search for meaning remains at the forefront, and sometimes those who have faced such realities from others, carry on the search that their peers were not able to answer. This fourth edition is <i>Attack on Titan</i>, at least to this point, at its most introspective; disillusioning past beliefs and rules, and reshaping trajectories that are equalled with newly found threats.
