Did Eren Yeager Use Mikasa to Fake His Death? Attack on Titan in 2025?

Alright, let's be real-Attack on Titan has always kept us on the edge of our seats. And when the series concluded, it left me-and probably a lot of you-with some serious questions. One that keeps spinning in my mind: Did Eren Yeager use Mikasa to fake his death? And with the series wrapping up, could we really be seeing a new season in 2025? Let's dive in.

Did Eren fake his own death using Mikasa?

First, the big question has to be asked: was Eren's death actually real, or was it a part of an even grander plan? It certainly does feel like an ending when Mikasa deals the finishing blow and we witness Eren's head rolling off his body. Quite a tragic one, actually. But let's get this straight: Attack on Titan has never been one for simple resolutions, and it has always found its way to make us question the action that unfolds before our very eyes.

Eren has always been a master manipulator, and from the moment he acquired the power of the Founding Titan, he had been playing a much larger game than any person ever realized. Even if we say he must die for his plan to succeed, what if the most heartbreaking way of achieving that involved using Mikasa? Think about it: Mikasa is everything to him. Her love for him is pure and unwavering. Could he have known that for Paradis's future and to further his plan, Mikasa would have to be the one to take him down?

Eren has made it clear time and again that whatever is necessary for freedom, even if it means hurting those he loves, he will do. If he faked his death, it may have been the final sacrifice for a man who knew the pain of Mikasa would protect his plan from interference afterward. The fact that so much is left unanswered makes me feel this could very well be part of an intricate design. Could it be that he is still alive, living out his days in the shadows, manipulating the world from afar? Not outside the realm of possibility.

Clues that Suggest This Is a Possibility

Now, some of the clues that might as well prove he actually faked his own death: for one, the fact that he's related to the paths. Founding Titan that he is, Eren can defy the very notion of time and space. That means, unlike in humans, death is probably not absolute. We have seen other characters survive impossible situations, so why couldn't Eren? His influence is tied to the very fabric of the world, after all.

The final scene with the kid and the tree felt like an indication that the cycle of the Titans isn't over. A tree might have represented Ymir's powers and the root of the Titan curse. Does that mean Eren is continuing to have his presence in the world, his "death" merely another stepping stone to achieve his dream to change the course of their future? Perhaps this little boy in that last scene will inherit Eren's will, continuing this some way we cannot really grasp yet.

Is There a New Season of Attack on Titan in 2025?

What about the rumor of a new season in 2025? So far, nothing has been confirmed yet. The anime adaptation for Attack on Titan has, so far, stuck very close to the manga storyline, and it really seemed like it came to a close. But let’s be real—the ending wasn’t exactly “neat.” It felt like there’s still so much more to explore, whether it’s the aftermath of Eren’s actions, the impact on the surviving characters, or even a deeper dive into the origins of the Titans themselves.

Plus, the universe of Attack on Titan has a lot of lore. Whether it is a sequel, a spin-off, or even a prequel, there's still much left to dig into. In the case of the creators wanting to continue the story in some form, this might answer some of the remaining questions we all have regarding Eren's fate and what's really next for the world.

What's Next for Attack on Titan?

Whether we get more Attack on Titan content or not, one thing is clear: Eren’s legacy will live on. His impact on the world, his choices, and the sacrifices made will echo through history. But, as always, the lines between right and wrong are blurred, and no matter how the story ends, we’re left questioning where we stand in it all.

So, what's your take? Do you think Eren actually made use of Mikasa, faking his own death, or is there still more to tell from his story? And if there's another season coming in 2025, which direction is it going to take? One thing's for sure-the world of Attack on Titan hasn't let go of us yet.
