is Eren Yeager's dying? So what's up guys Foxen here! Is your favorite attack on
Titan character dying? Although this theory discussion is not limited to
Eren. Today let's go ahead and take a look at the curse of Ymir. Throughout the
past year I seen a lot of you guys ask me can this curse be cured? Or even is
this curse actually real? Definitely let me know your own thoughts on this! Let's
go ahead and get an in-depth look at the curse of Ymir. To start off what is the
curse of Ymir? Unfortunately that Deadpool
regeneration and that Titan perk comes at a cost.
Ding after 13 years this is included in that combo package. That
means the Titan shifters like Eren, Armin, Reiner, Zeke all of these guys
will die 13 years after they first became a Titan shifter. If they're smart
about it they'll go ahead and transfer the powers
before they actually get to year 13 but anyway
where does this curse of Ymir come from? Why is this a thing? The first one to
really have some information about this curse was Eren Kruger. Whoever inherits
the powers of the nine Titans will die after 13 years. Supposedly the original
Ymir died 13 years after awakening her almighty titan powers,
hence where the name comes from "The curse of Ymir". No one should be able to
get powers greater than hers so as you approach the time limit the Titan
shifters body weakens since the vessel has finished serving its purpose. All
right so here let me touch on one of the questions you might have had. Is the
curse of Ymir real? Iin the very same a chapter where this was revealed
you saw this weakened Kruger explaining this to Grisha. That guy looked totally
worn out and even his nose was bleeding. Perhaps he really shouldn't have
procrastinated. The thing about this is that Kruger is not the only example
Let's look at a past royal blood family member Uri. In the
uprising arc he saw him before and after he inherited the founding Titan. Similar
to mr. Kruger Uri had rapidly aged in just 13 years. It even looks like this guy
had problems walking on his own it was that bad. Forget about avoiding drugs
keep away from that Eldian stuff! But anyway there has been a more recent
example in present day for the attack on Titan manga and that is the war chief
Zeke. You saw a good look at this guy's bod at the end of season two. At that
time he was 25 years old. Post time skip Zeke has clearly been worn down. You
might be able to argue against this but the biggest giveaway is at white
hair. Keep in mind that Zeke is supposed to be 29 years old here. So here you got
three examples from the attack on titan story. Once or twice could be a
coincidence but three times the curse of Ymir is very much real but how about the
other question. Is there any hope in finding some sort of cure? Come on Hange
you got a science to crap out of this! This is where the theory discussion
starts for this topic. Let me first mention that there may be more to this
curse but I'm not too hopeful. If you're one of the ones hoping that Eren
survives this you may be disappointed. For this let me bring up Grisha. Eren's
father was also a Titan shifter. Back when wall Maria came down Grisha forced
a young Eren to inherit both the attack Titan and the founding titan. Any
possible wiggle room for this curse may come from Grisha. There's actually a
couple possibilities. Notice that Grisha should have been on his last year
however unlike the last three examples Griffith didn't seem weakened at all. Keep
in mind that just before Grisha died he was 39 years old. Just compare him to
Zeke who only had one year left. Is there a reason that Grisha looked like he was
doing much better? Perhaps you could say that Grisha had more than one year left
but that only then brings up more questions and possible implications
about Grisha. Let me go ahead and give you some possible explanations for this
although as I said they may be unlikely. Definitely let me know your own thoughts
on these! To start off, Grisha had just eaten Frieda
also known as a founding Titan. Could it be possible that by eating another Titan
shifter the possible time limit for the curse of Ymir had doubled? In other
words instead of living 13 years total, Grisha was now able to live 26 years
total. I don't really buy this one but the chance is always there. One thing
that does go against is is the thought that taking in more poison should
kill you faster right? I somewhat agree with this thought but then again it's not
like this Titan stuff is natural. As far as you know Titans more or less exists in
the magical mystical areas. So about Grisha having 26 years total I
personally doubt it however I think these next two possibilities are much
more likely. Instead of Grisha doubling his lifetime how about if he
either gained whatever life Freida have left? So if Frieda had four years
those four years would have been added to Grisha's life, or how about every time
limit resets when you eat another Titan shifter. After Grisha ate Frieda
he could have unknowingly lived for another 13 years. Imagine that! But anyway
those were three ideas on this. Do you buy any of them? Let me go ahead and
throw in my own personal theory which is slightly more complex. This goes back to
the reset idea. When you eat another Titan shifter what if it resets your
death limit but only to some extent? Let me explain what I mean. Take Eren for
example this guy has an Attack Titan and the Founding one. Eren had these force
onto him when he was ten years old this means Eren will die when he's 23
years old. Krueger mentioned that the original Ymir died 13 years after
awakening her powers. What if Eren dies on year 23 from the
attack Titan part of this curse except that he doesn't. It's possible that on a
year 23 the attack Titan is transferred to another Eldian
but Eren survives but why? You still know very little about how this whole
Titan inheritance works. It's possible that it gets even more complicated when
someone takes in more than one Titan shifter. This goes back to the second
titan shifter that Eren has the founding one. Technically Eren did not
activate or awaken the coordinate powers until the end of season 2. At this point
Eren was 15. What if at this point the 13 year counters started then for the
founding titan. Eren could lose his Attack Titan when he's 23
but perhaps Eren can live an additional 5 years thanks to the founding Titan
powers. Unfortunately this means that Eren still would die although that'll
be when he's 28 but hey that's an Attack on Titan theory more important let me
hear from you! Question of the day, do you think this curse of Ymir is real?
Can Eren survive this curse? Do you think it's possible for Hange or someone
else to find a cure for it? And out of all the possibilities that mentioned
which one do you think is more likely? If you enjoyed this theory and theory
discussion videos definitely gives this a colossal thumbs up and subscribe! You
could enjoy five or more anime videos every week this includes some juicy
attack on Titan ones. By the way since we just talked about Eren Yeager how about
the other Yeager Zeke? Definitely check out my recent
video on why Zeke will betray his buddies and I'll
see you guys later
