A colossal-sized omnibus film bringing together the last two episodes of Attack on Titan in the franchise's first-ever theatrical experience. After venturing beyond the walls and separated from his comrades, Eren finds himself inspired by this new truth and plots the "Rumbling," a terrifying plan to eradicate every living thing in the world. With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, a motley crew of Eren's former comrades and enemies scramble to halt his deadly mission. The only question is, can they stop him?

The film critiques the dangers of extreme nationalism, ethnic conflict, and unchecked power, presenting a nuanced commentary on the devastating consequences of ideological extremes from multiple perspectives rather than endorsing a specific political solution.
The film explores complex themes of war, genocide, and nationalism, which indirectly touch on issues of systemic injustice and conflict, but it does not explicitly foreground Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion themes in a manner typical of US discourse. While characters exhibit visual diversity within the fictional world, there is no indication of explicit DEI-driven casting or narrative focus on specific DEI categories.
The film inherits and maintains the existing positive LGBTQ+ representation from the 'Attack on Titan' series. This includes the affirming depiction of Ymir and Historia as a lesbian couple, and Hange Zoë's intentionally ambiguous gender, which allows for non-binary interpretation. The movie does not introduce new LGBTQ+ elements but preserves these appreciated portrayals.
The film features Mikasa Ackerman, who consistently engages in and wins close-quarters physical fights against male human and Titan opponents using blades and hand-to-hand combat, demonstrating superior skill and agility.
The film utilizes Christian motifs such as sacrifice, sin, redemption, and persecution to enrich its narrative. These themes are presented with gravity and depth, aligning the narrative with the dignity of these concepts and fostering audience sympathy for the persecuted, reflecting a positive engagement with Christian themes.
Judaism is referenced through the theme of persecution, likening the plight of Ymir's descendants to historical Jewish persecution. This narrative framing encourages sympathy for the victimized group, thereby affirming the historical experience and resilience associated with the Jewish faith.
The film faithfully adapts the source material, and the provided analysis explicitly states that no characters have an on-screen gender differing from their established gender in the manga or anime. The portrayal of Zoe Hange maintains the character's original gender ambiguity, with no explicit gender reassignment.
The animated characters in the film are visually depicted as European-like/Caucasian, consistent with their established appearance in the source material. While the voice actors are Japanese (East Asian), the on-screen visual portrayal of the characters' race remains unchanged from the source, thus not meeting the definition of a race swap.
