The fourth and final season of the Attack on Titan anime television series, subtitled Attack on Titan: The Final Season, is produced by MAPPA, chief directed by Jun Shishido, and directed by Yūichirō Hayashi, replacing Tetsurō Araki and Masashi Koizuka respectively. Scriptwriter Hiroshi Seko took over the series composition from Yasuko Kobayashi, and Tomohiro Kishi replaced Kyōji Asano as character designer due to the series switching production studios.[1] The season covers the "Marley" (chapters 91–106) and "War for Paradis" (chapters 107–139) arcs from the original manga by Hajime Isayama.
The season follows Gabi Braun and Falco Grice, young Eldian Warrior candidates seeking to inherit Reiner's Armored Titan four years after the failed mission to claim the Founding Titan. Marley plans to invade Paradis to strengthen their weakening military and recover the Founding Titan. With the Survey Corps on the Marley shoreline, Gabi, Falco, Reiner, and other Titans go to war with the Paradis soldiers as Eren Jaeger reveals his new plan of attack on the Marleyan invaders: annihilation. As both sides take a heavy death toll, both the Marleyan Warriors and the Survey Corps must question the best approach to claiming victory over the other side. Eren's comrades begin to realize that he has begun to walk down a questionable path, while Gabi and Falco must combat their internal tensions over the supposed "devils" of Paradis.
The season premiered on NHK General TV on December 7, 2020 at 12:10 a.m. JST.[2] In the United States, Adult Swim's Toonami programming block began airing Funimation's English dub on January 10, 2021 at 12:30 a.m. EST/PST.[3] The first 16 episodes aired until March 29, 2021 and a second part was announced to be in development with an expected release in January 2022.[4][5]

Due to the Warrior Unit's defeat on Paradis Island four years ago, the Mid-East Allied Forces had declared war against Marley. The operation to reclaim the Founding Titan was put on hold. Marley sends Eldian soldiers to take Fort Slava, including Warrior Candidates (candidates to inherit the Power of the Nine Titans) Falco Grice, his older brother Colt, Gabi Braun, Udo and Zofia. Colt proposes to Commander Theo Magath that they use the power of the Warrior Titans, but he refuses due to the Allied Forces' armored train possessing a deadly anti-Titan cannon. Gabi manages to approach the train and disable it with hand grenades. This allows Pieck's Cart Titan and Galliard's Jaw Titan to attack the fort. From an airship above Fort Slava, Eldians are transformed into Pure Titans by Zeke and are dropped onto it, destroying much of its structure. Reiner's Armored Titan, aided by the Jaw Titan, successfully pulverizes the fort's defenses, including another armored train. Zeke, noting that the cause of this war was their defeat, transforms into the Beast Titan and annihilates the Mid-East Allied Fleet, thus ending the four-year war. After witnessing the developed anti-Titan weaponry, Marley realizes their need to retrieve the Founding Titan. Note: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Funimation added a disclaimer at the beginning of each episode stating that the English dub voice actors were able to record their lines from the safety of their homes. This disclaimer is played weekly before the English dub broadcast. | ||||||||||||

| At a Marleyan military meeting, Zeke proposes to use his last year of life to attack Paradis Island and retake the Founding Titan. However, as none of Marley's ships have returned for the past three years, it's clear to Zeke that Paradis controls at least two of the Nine Titans. On a train back to their homes, the surviving Eldian soldiers praise Gabi for her courage, while Reiner secretly encourages Falco to become the Armored Titan in place of Gabi. The Eldian soldiers and Warriors arrive at Liberio and reunite with their families. At dinner, Gabi recounts the victory at Fort Slava while Reiner is prompted to give an account of his time on Paradis. The next day, Zeke informs the other Warriors of his plan to use the Tybur noble family and their War Hammer Titan to announce an offensive against Paradis. Zeke proposes that the Tyburs publicly reveal their involvement and their plan during a festival in Liberio. | ||||||||||||

| Reiner thinks about his past and a conversation he had with his mother on the curse of being an Eldian. He entered the military training program where selected candidates were chosen to become Titans. Porco was devastated when Reiner was chosen to be the Armored Titan. Commander Magath then sent Annie Leonhart, Bertholdt Hoover, Reiner, and Marcel Galliard on a mission to reclaim the Founding Titan on Paradis, but Marcel, saving Reiner, is devoured by Ymir's Pure Titan. Following the assault on Wall Maria, they sneaked into Wall Rose and joined the Training Corps on Paradis two years later. Emerging from recollections of his past, Reiner attempts suicide, but stops after hearing Falco outside. He then tells himself that he needs to live because of his role as a mentor to Falco and the other Warrior Candidates. Falco stops by the hospital and has a conversation with an Eldian soldier who admits to faking his trauma-induced amnesia to avoid being sent back home. | ||||||||||||

| Kruger, the wounded Eldian soldier, asks Falco to post letters for him from outside the internment zone. Willy Tybur, the head of the Tybur family who possess the War Hammer Titan, meets with Commander Magath. They form an alliance to stop the warmongering and restore the balance between Eldia and Marley. Back at the hospital, the patient Mr. Jaeger, Grisha's father, approaches Kruger and asks him to avoid using Falco for his schemes and to return to his family. Willy invites the dignitaries present to a theatrical play to be performed after the festival in Liberio. Both Warriors and Candidates enjoy the festival the day it arrives. Later that day, they all head towards the plaza for Willy's play. In a post-credits scene, right before the presentation begins, Falco takes Reiner to a basement behind the stage, where he meets Kruger. Much to his shock, Reiner immediately recognizes him as Eren Jaeger, who greets Reiner, stating that four years have passed since they last saw each other. | ||||||||||||

| Willy begins his theatrical presentation to the audience while Eren and a terrified Reiner listen with Falco in the basement behind the stage. Willy tells the well-known story of Marley's hero Helos, who formed an alliance with the Tybur family to defeat the Eldian King Fritz. However, he reveals Fritz and the Tybur family fabricated the myth themselves since Fritz longed for peace. His ideology was passed through his bloodline, which kept his successors bound to his desire, while vowing to release the Wall Titans if the peace is shattered by Marley. Meanwhile, Pieck and Porco are sent down a trap door by a Marleyan soldier, which drops them into a small, stone-walled cellar, preventing them from transforming into Titans. On stage, Willy announces that an uprising has occurred on Paradis, and that the Founding Titan has been stolen by a man called Eren Jaeger. Willy explains that Eren is a threat to world peace as he is not bound by Fritz's vow to renounce war. In the basement, Eren apologizes to a horrified Falco and explains that since his arrival in Marley, he has realized that both Paradis and Marley are alike in that both sides are just people. He tells Reiner that the two of them are alike, but with contrasting beliefs due to their different upbringings. Reiner, devastated by the thought of everything that happened on Paradis four years prior, including the death of Eren's mother, is his fault, begs Eren to kill him. Just as Willy declares war on Paradis, Eren transforms into the Attack Titan, bursts out of the basement and crushes the stage along with Willy, throwing his mangled body into the air. | ||||||||||||

| In a flashback prior to Willy's declaration of war on Paradis, he farewells his family and discusses with Commander Magath the probability of an attack at the ceremony, although Willy is prepared to become a martyr in support of his cause. In the present, the Attack Titan devours Willy and continues its rampage, devastating the Marleyan military brass. Zofia dies on the spot, while Udo suffers severe injuries; Gabi and Colt manage to flee with him. Willy's sister Lara Tybur transforms into the War Hammer Titan, but is immediately assaulted by the Attack Titan. Lara overpowers him using her Titan's hardening ability to create destructive weapons. Meanwhile, Pieck and Porco are rescued by the Cart Titan's Panzer Unit just as the Survey Corps commence an assault overhead. The War Hammer Titan defeats the Attack Titan and forces Eren out its body. Just as she prepares to kill him, Mikasa arrives and attacks the War Hammer's nape with Thunder Spears, but it turns out to be ineffective. Meanwhile, Udo is declared dead; a vengeful Gabi heads back to the battlefield, only to witness more death and destruction, infuriating her even more. Eren realizes that Lara's crystal-covered body is underground, connected by a long white cord. He transforms into the Attack Titan again and severs the cord, preparing to devour her. Porco's Jaw Titan leaps onto the Attack Titan's nape, but Levi arrives and slices its jaw-joint, much to Porco's surprise and horror as Levi initiates a counterattack against him. | ||||||||||||

| The Survey Corps surround Porco's Jaw Titan, but they come under attack from Pieck's Cart Titan carrying the Panzer Unit armed with machine guns, which are effective at picking them off. While Eren is distracted by the commotion, Lara partially re-materializes the War Hammer Titan, impaling and trapping the Attack Titan in a tree-like structure made of its hardened substance, but fails to pierce its nape. Zeke's Beast Titan arrives while Marleyan soldiers surround Liberio. Falco emerges from underground, protected by a bud-like shield formed by Reiner's partial transformation; he reunites with Magath and Gabi. Mikasa and Eren fail to break Lara's crystal; Eren then transforms for the third time to escape the War Hammer's trap. As the Survey Corps lose several soldiers, Armin arrives and transforms into the Colossal Titan, destroying the Marleyan Navy. Levi uses the distraction to disable the Beast Titan, dropping a grenade on the fallen Titan's nape. Sasha kills a machine gunner of the Panzer Unit, enabling Jean and other soldiers to destroy it and severely injure the Cart Titan using their Thunder Spears. As the Survey Corps try to kill Pieck, Magath and other Marleyan soldiers defend her. Meanwhile, Hange arrives overhead in an airship to recover the Survey Corps, guided by lights placed earlier in the battle. The Jaw Titan attacks the airship, but is dismembered and immobilized by Mikasa and Eren. The Attack Titan then uses its jaws like a nutcracker to shatter Lara's crystal and swallows her remains, gaining the powers of the War Hammer Titan. As Eren is about to eat Porco too, Gabi and Falco's frantic cries for help awaken Reiner, and he reluctantly emerges to confront Eren. | ||||||||||||

| Eren engages in a brief battle with Reiner's Armored Titan, who is quickly beaten by Eren but manages to save Porco. Eren, having reached his limit, stops fighting and escapes with Mikasa. Levi arrests Eren for initiating his own mission and for involving the Survey Corps in his rescue. Gabi rushes after the airship with a rifle, but is stopped by Falco who realizes the enemy's own need for revenge after the devastation on Paradis that aimed to secure the Founding Titan. Gabi refuses and kills the Survey Corps recruit Lobov, then uses his ODM gear to reach the airship with Falco. Gabi climbs aboard and shoots Sasha in the chest. Pieck tells Magath that the woman who trapped them prior to the battle is a soldier named Yelena who was a crew member of the missing first scout ship sent to Paradis three years prior. Gabi and Falco are taken before Zeke who appears to have switched sides. Sasha dies of her wounds and Eren starts laughing bitterly after hearing her last words from Connie which were "meat". Jean reminds him that Sasha would have lived if Eren had not involved the Survey Corps in his mission. | ||||||||||||

| Three years prior to the attack on Marley, Eren's Attack Titan destroyed the first Marleyan scout ship and its crew were captured. Yelena and other Marleyan conscripted deserters who call themselves the "Anti-Marleyan Volunteers", offered help to the Eldians, backing Zeke Jaeger's plan to carry out the Rumbling in order to support them against Marley. Yelena and Onyankopon provided them with schematics of Marleyan guns and advanced weaponry. Using Yelena to lure in more scout ships while Armin's Colossal Titan takes some of them down, the Survey Corps recruited Marleyan soldiers as labor to build docks for the island. In the present, a Marleyan chef named Nicolo, who befriended the now deceased Sasha, grieves for her death and encounters the Braus family, inviting them to his restaurant. Meanwhile, Levi shows Zeke the Forest of Giant Trees where they will be staying, and Commander Pyxis has the Volunteers detained in order to keep Zeke on a short leash. Armin reflects to the still-crystallized Annie on how whether helping Eren in the raid against Marley was the right decision. Gabi and Falco are imprisoned; elsewhere, Eren himself is in a cell, where he finishes tidying up his appearance and tells himself that the only way to win is to fight. | ||||||||||||

| Two years ago on Zeke's advice, a special envoy of Hizuru, Kiyomi Azumabito, landed on the newly-completed docks of Paradis Island for negotiations. A tattoo on Mikasa's arm revealed that she is the descendant of Hizuru's ruling shogun. Lady Azumabito believed that Hizuru could help Paradis achieve Zeke's plan on using the Rumbling to protect the island, in return for the valuable Iceburst Stone - the mysterious Paradis substance which powers ODM gear. She listed Zeke's propositions: to enact a test of the Rumbling, strengthen and modernize the Paradis military, and for the Beast Titan to be passed down to someone of royal blood who would bear children, so it could be passed on every 13 years. Historia agreed to inherit the Beast Titan, though Eren vehemently rejected the proposal. However, Hizuru's help rooted in greed, and a year later, they would not help Paradis negotiate trade with other nations. At that time, while working on the island's railway, the Survey Corps kept struggling with deciding their strategy against Marley and who should inherit Eren's Titan when his term runs out. In the present, Hange interrogates Eren for acting on his own against the military, resulting in Eren grabbing Hange and angrily asking her if she has any alternative plans. Historia is shown to be pregnant and living with a local farmer she knew from her childhood. Jean and Connie believe Eren has lost all sympathy for his friends. Armin plans to speak with Eren together with Mikasa, all while proposing that the military could have Eren be eaten by someone more trustworthy to them. | ||||||||||||

| Gabi kills her prison guard and escapes with Falco into the wilderness. They are found by a young girl named Kaya who offers them food and shelter at the Braus stables. Lady Azumabito arrives at the docks with a Hizuru delegation and a covered aircraft powered by Iceburst Stone, which she describes as the "world's first flying boat." For leaking information about Eren's imprisonment to the press, Hange incarcerates four Survey Corps members including Floch and Louise. Meanwhile at the Braus stables, after Gabi rails against Kaya for being a "devil", Kaya reveals that she knows Gabi and Falco are from Marley. She explains how her village was destroyed and her mother was eaten alive by a Titan four years ago, and questions why these people should die for sins committed by Eldians hundreds of years ago. Falco calms the emotions between Gabi and Kaya, and the latter informs them that they have been invited for dinner at the restaurant run by a Marleyan who could help Gabi and Falco return home. In Marley, the military has realized that Zeke Jaeger had faked his death and likely sided with Paradis. As the new General, Magath informs the Warriors that in six months' time, the world plans to launch a global offensive against Paradis, but Reiner suggests they make a surprise attack before Zeke can come up with a defensive plan. | ||||||||||||

| Yelena reveals to Commander Pyxis that ten months ago, she had secretly met with Eren before his infiltration on Marley. Elsewhere, Onyankopon tells Hange how Yelena was fiercely loyal to Zeke in Marley, and he confesses that no other Volunteer knew about her secret. Mikasa and Armin meet with Premier Zachary to get permission to speak with Eren. Zachary denies them as he suspects Eren of colluding with the Volunteers and of being manipulated by Zeke. After they leave his office, a bomb kills Zachary and three other soldiers which stirs up protesters eager to fight for a New Eldian Empire. Eren escapes from prison and meets up with Floch and other allies. In the aftermath, the Military Police concede to the Survey Corps that their intentions were to take Eren's Founding Titan. Hange states that Eren's supporters, dubbed as the "Jaegerists", intend Eren to meet up with Zeke and reform the military with Eren as the leader. Since the number of Jaegerists and their identities are unknown, Pyxis declares that instead of fighting amongst themselves, the military should make a deal with the Jaegerists using Zeke's location as a bargaining chip. Lady Azumabito begs Mikasa to return with her to Hizuru, but Mikasa refuses, citing her loyalty to the Eldians of Paradis. Hange suspects that Yelena and Zeke were prepared for this situation and likely took precautions, so the Survey Corps should look into the Marleyan prisoners who obtained jobs on Paradis through Yelena. The Braus family, along with Gabi and Falco, arrive in Nicolo's restaurant, and Pieck is shown to have infiltrated the Walls once again. | ||||||||||||

| In the forest, Zeke tells Levi that four years earlier on Marley's orders, his spinal fluid was released in a gaseous form towards the Ragako villagers on Paradis. He says it initially paralyzed them, then he turned them into Titans with his scream. Zeke claims he did it to maintain his cover, but Levi accuses him of not truly caring for the people he killed. During the Braus family’s dinner, Kaya points Nicolo out to Gabi and Falco as the Marleyan who invited them, explaining that he was probably in love with Sasha. After the Survey Corps arrive in the restaurant to question him, Nicolo forcefully takes a bottle of Marleyan wine from Connie and Jean, telling them that it would be wasted on Eldians. He brings the wine to the cellar, to where Gabi and Falco follow him, revealing themselves as Candidates. Nicolo deduces that Gabi killed Sasha and attempts to bludgeon her with the bottle, but Falco takes the hit instead, and some of the wine gets in his mouth. Nicolo punches Gabi out then carries the two back to the dining room. He offers Mr. Braus a knife, saying either of them shall kill her. The Survey Corps intervenes, and through Mr. Braus, the emotions are seemingly calmed. Connie and Jean restrain Nicolo, but Mikasa has to save Gabi from Kaya who attempts to kill her. A devastated Gabi is escorted to another room by Mikasa and Armin, while Nicolo tells Hange to rinse Falco's mouth as he suspects that the wine Falco accidentally ingested is spiked with Zeke's spinal fluid. He explains that the wine came from Yelena's scout ship and was given to him by her to be served to the high government officials. Meanwhile, Levi receives word of Zachary's death and wonders if he completely miscalculated Eren's potential as humanity's savior. The Jaegerists raid the restaurant and hold everyone at gunpoint. Floch demands Zeke's location from Hange and reveals that he knew about Zeke's plan with the wine. Eren meets with Mikasa, Armin and Gabi and states that he wants to talk. | ||||||||||||

| At their round-table discussion, Eren claims he is acting on his own free will. As each Titan host is affected by memories of its previous owner, Eren asserts that Armin is being manipulated into regularly visiting Annie's crystal by Bertholdt's memories. Eren then reveals that Mikasa has been programmed to protect the Eldian royal family because of her Ackerman bloodline, being no more than a slave in his eyes, for which he had hated her since they were children. Enraged, Armin attacks Eren, although he's first unwillingly stopped by Mikasa. Eren repeats that it is due to Mikasa's lineage. Armin punches Eren in the face, but Eren beats him easily, mentioning he would never last in a fight. Together with the Jaegerists, they take Armin, Mikasa and Gabi to Shiganshina District where Eren plans to rejoin Zeke. In the forest, Levi plans to have Zeke eaten by a Jaegerist to prevent Eren from using the Founding Titan. However, Zeke runs from the camp and screams, which turns Levi's comrades into Pure Titans due to the spiked Marleyan wine they had drunk. Levi kills all the Titans and pursues Zeke, catching up with him. Zeke transforms into the Beast Titan in a desperate bid to escape, but Levi uses Thunder Spears to destroy the Beast Titan's nape and retrieves Zeke's damaged body. Floch turns the military cadets in Shiganshina to the Jaegerists' side by threatening them with imprisonment, forcing them to beat Keith Shadis. Zeke wakes up to find himself lying gravely injured in a cart, with Levi sitting beside him. He’s told not to move and is informed by Levi that a Thunder Spear is impaled into his stomach, tied to a detonator around his neck. Levi starts chopping Zeke’s legs; as Zeke falls unconscious in intense agony, he recalls a memory of his childhood. | ||||||||||||

| As a child, Zeke was treated harshly by his parents, as Dina and Grisha saw him as a tool in their plans to restore Eldian society and overthrow Marley. One day, Zeke encountered Tom Xaver, the current holder of the Beast Titan, and over the years, they developed a close bond. When Zeke learned that his parents were Restorationists, he turned them over to the police at the urging of Xaver and to save himself from being turned into a Pure Titan. Xaver told Zeke that his research revealed that the Founding Titan is able to manipulate the body of Eldians. They resolved to "save" the Eldian people from further persecution through sterilizing them using the Founding Titan. Later, Xaver also revealed how to get around Karl Fritz's vow of renouncing war. Eventually, Zeke inherited the Beast Titan and promised to find a suitable person for their plan. Reuniting with Reiner and Bertholdt on Paradis, he learned that Eren Jaeger possessed the Founder. He deduced that Grisha Jaeger had managed to avoid getting turned into a Titan and vowed to rescue Eren from Grisha's brainwashing. In Liberio, Eren agreed to cooperate with Zeke's euthanization plan. As Zeke finishes reflecting on his past, his mumbling is heard by Levi. Zeke suddenly ignites the Thunder Spear impaled in his body, detonating it and catching Levi by surprise. | ||||||||||||

| Hange and Floch's group is heading towards the forest when they hear the explosion of the Thunder Spear and decide to investigate. A female Pure Titan approaches the dying Zeke, tears open her abdomen and places him inside. At Shiganshina, Yelena and the Volunteers have Commander Pyxis and other military members rounded up since many among them drank from the tainted wine. The imprisoned Survey Corps members discuss escaping and Eren's recent actions when Yelena arrives to explain to them Zeke's plan: a widespread Eldian sterilization to prevent the births of any more Eldians until the death of Historia's child, after which humanity will be free from the threat of Titans. In the meantime, they will use the threat of the Rumbling to prevent interference on Paradis from other nations. Eren meets Gabi, ordering her to cooperate with him, but is interrupted by Pieck who surprisingly offers to join the Jaegerists. She states that the Marleyans must be punished for their poor treatment of the Eldian people and agrees to sell out her compatriots. On the rooftop, Pieck's ruse is revealed as Porco's Jaw Titan emerges from below and attempts to eat Eren. Eren transforms into the Attack Titan, revealing his location to approaching Marleyan airships. General Magath tells his men to get revenge for Liberio, as Eren and Reiner prepare to face each other once again. | ||||||||||||
