Attack on Titan has finally unleashed the long foreshadowed and highly anticipated Rumbling with the newest episode of the series! Ever since the anime came back earlier this year it has been setting the stage for the grand finale by dropping small teases about what Eren Yeager was cooking up for the future. Previous episodes of the season have teased that Eren has something terrible planned for the future by showcasing just how far he was willing to fall in order to achieve these new goals. But with the newest episode everything became clear as Eren fully unleashed The Rumbling.

Foreshadowed in small hints throughout the rest of the series as a whole, it was revealed that Eren was trying to gain control of the Founding Titan's power to unleash the Rumbling. While Zeke had been working with him under the idea that they would eliminate all of Eldia's future children, it's confirmed that Eren's real plan is much worse than that. By activating the Titans sleeping within the walls, Eren plans to destroy the entire world outside of the island of Paradis. It's complete annihilation. Check it out below as spotted by @_Dominating on Twitter:

Picking up from the previous episode that saw Eren and Zeke return from the past, Episode 80 of the series sees them return to the Paths. In this space Eren is chained up, and Zeke plans to keep him that way in order to follow through with the Eldian euthanasia plan. Then fans are treated to a sequence that reveals the true sources of the Titan's power, and through this connection Eren then is able to make a deeper tie with the founder herself, Ymir. He activates her rage as she seeks true freedom.

Instead of following along with Zeke's plan, Eren talks the founder into breaking free of her thousands of years long vow to serve the royal family. Having her completely sink into he rage, he then activates The Rumbling and soon it wakes up all of the Titans in the walls. But it's a massive shift as the Rumbling is not meant to just destroy the invading forces of Marley, but Eren seeks to use the power to destroy the rest of the world. Now it's a matter of seeing who survives from here.
