!he Warhammer Titan! Is a final Titan just to overpowered? So what's up guys
Foxen here. Today and let's go ahead and get into a deep discussion around the
Warhammer Titan. I'm gonna be getting into everything including my theories on
it. So let's get into it. The Warhammer Titan just officially debuted in chapter
101 of attack on Titan and so far looking at it it seems like the only
unique thing about it really is a head piece. There has been some discussion
about whether the mask is some type of armor I kind of doubt it.
Although I do think it could offer some very limited protection maybe from Titan
flies. And just looking at the mask itself that seems to be a pin point
about whether you're a fan of it or not. I've seen some people say that it looks
either too bland while others say that it looks creepy. Personally I think I'm
somewhere in between. I mean if you look at it without the color it does look a
little weird but I have seen some colored versions of it. In those you can
see the red underneath now that is something that looks like something out
of a horror movie but what do you think? Creepy or not? Now let's take a step back
let's look at the mask and the whole body. When I first saw this thing it
reminded me of two things from Bleach. One of those was the rank I think 11
Espada and the other was Aizen in that
cocoon-like form. I just pictured this thing being mostly white all around. I
think that's why the actual body structure looks very similar to that of
Eren's Attack Titan, although perhaps not as buff and really I have
seen a lot of people complain about this. Most of the complaints being around this
thing looking way too human. Of course it is hard to tell or just get a good
feeling about this without any color. It does seem like the Warhammer Titan might
have this thin layer of armor combined with the mask piece just think similar to
the armored Titan. Although definitely not as strong and
then the other thing you should notice about this is a mask combined with the
body plus the stance you see in the current chapter. I did forget to mention
it the first time around but when I saw it it did give me this feeling of it
being some type of executioner and that feeling just got doubled down when it
said the words do you have any final words? I'm pretty sure Isayama was
thinking back to one of those medieval type of executioners. I don't know did
anyone else get the executioner feel? Next up let's talk about the power of
the warhammer Titan. Going back to the original
question is this thing way too overpowered? So far seems like this thing
should be called The Alchemist Titan because forget about hammers this thing
could really just make anything. So far we've seen three things. You saw that
super drill at the beginning of the fight. It was that giant drill that
pierced and sent Eren flying. Just keep in mind this was all while it was getting
its ass beat and perhaps it wasn't fully transformed yet. Then you got the super
long hammer. This is what everyone was waiting to see and by the way thanks a
lot if you told me this thing looks like the Warhammer Titan playing polo. I
totally can't unsee that now. And then following the spikes on the ground. I do
question how useful these things are. I saw some people trying to argue that
these spikes were the reason that Eren lost hmm I'm not sure about that. So
overall the power seems to just be able to make stuff at will. I would imagine
there has to be some type of limitation but I'll get back to this. Originally I
thought all of this stuff was coming from the body of the Warhammer Titan.
Some people were thinking oh this stuff has to be coming from the skin but when
I was seeing this it didn't really look like that to me. Instead I thought
crystal I mean once again it is hard to tell because a manga is in black and
white but it could be similar to Eren and Annie's Titan. The Warhammer Titan
could just have a better grasp at summoning this stuff. The real power here
is bending the crystal into useful weapons or structures and not to mention
just doing it very quickly. I mean just think back to when Eren did it back in
the uprising arc in a cave. It seems like that just a more controlled version. As
an alternative think about this. Another option could be that this stuff is made
from the ground or even wood. What do you think about that? This Warhammer could be
an environmentally friendly Titan! Also it is worth noting just how strong is
this stuff from the Warhammer Titan? Think back to the giant spike that
penetrated Eren. Eren's Titan is supposed to be strong but still it didn't seem
like it was that hard to break it. I would imagine that the hammers and
spikes in the ground have a similar durability. And then we have the second
thing that makes this thing overpowered. That super quick regeneration. At the
very beginning it had like half its head destroyed.
Keep in mind that this was Eren beating the crap out of it. After his hands got
super hard in that other scene where the spikes were penetrating Eren. The
Warhammer arm is just gone it almost looks like a burn victim.
That's how bad it was beat up. Still there is a question about whether this
was an ability of it or perhaps it was just due to it being mid-transformation.
I mean that's possible we haven't really seen a Titan attacked mid
transformation yet. Oh yeah incomplete side note Eren
sucker punching that thing really reminded me of him punching Annie's
Titan in season 1 right into that church. Alright so those two key things
are why this thing seems very overpowered but how about some
weaknesses or potential weaknesses? Let me go ahead and start with the obvious
one. The one controlling the Warhammer Titan right now is Willy's sister. This
means there is a questionable amount of limited combat experience she does have.
I could really only imagine there's some type of training that each Warhammer
holder has to go through so it's not like she's totally without experience.
However it's not like she's fighting in the frontlines in constant combat just
compare her to someone like Reiner or Zeke
or even Eren at this point. Let me also take a moment to mention the other side
theory I had. The Tybur family has been around a long time.
Arguably they know the most about Titans and everything else revolving around
Titans so I give you this question to. think about. How much does a previous
Warhammer Titan come into play for combat experience? You know about how
there's some level of memories being shared. The Tybur family should know how
to access this to the fullest. Just imagine if the Warhammer Titan holder
was able to tap into the battle experience of all the previous holders.
Now that would be overpowered but who knows? What do you think? It is something
interesting to think about. Anyway as for an actual weakness let me bring up this
popular theory. Right now that the Warhammer Titan cannot move in battle.
The popular idea right now is that the Warhammer Titans power comes from it
being planted into the ground in other words it can create a bunch of stuff
from the earth but the trade-off is not being able to move at all.
I think this would help to explain that super long hammer. I was also thinking
that the spikes on the ground could actually be the roots of the Warhammer
Titan. So I was thinking about this and then looking back at the manga this
could be true but I got my doubts. Looking back at the battle scene and I
totally admit that it's not super clear to see what's going on but you can see
the Warhammer Titan has been moving around throughout the
battle. You could go ahead and look for yourself to make it easier just use the
giant spike in the ground for reference. However I do think that the Warhammer
Titan has to be touching the ground for this to work and that's really just
because I think there has to be some type of limitation otherwise that would
be way too overpowered. There is also a possibility that to compensate for the
ability the warhammer Titan itself is not too fast and the actual body it has
could be very fragile. Having a weak body would help explain that super quick
regeneration. Anyway for a moment let's assume that the Warhammer Titan does
need to be planted on the ground. Also I don't think it's crazy that it survived
that explosion to the neck. On top of that jaws and Pieck are coming any second.
With that in mind how do you beat this thing?
Assuming Eren could get his Titan back up again he could use the attack
Titan strength to throw this into the air. I mean he was able to lift that Boulder
in the past before so this shouldn't be hard at all and then while this midair
the scouts could nuke it while it's flying. An alternative could be to
release their god of destruction. You already saw how the colossal Titan
send Eren flying with a kick so just imagine Armin super kicking it or
picking it up. The issue here would be how slow the colossal Titan is. That's
why a third possible option could just be Armin body slamming the damn thing.
And almost forgot the final option there is always Levi coming out and then
turning this thing into complete barbecue but I think Levi might be
waiting for the beast Titan round two but anyway let's go ahead and take a
step back. The Warhammer Titan is a long-awaited final Titan shifter the 9th
one. I'll ask you do you think this is really the final one? You were told a
long time ago that there were nine total but do you think they'll go the Naruto
route? In other words could there be a super-powerful 10th one. Perhaps when all
powers combine into one that's what you get but that's just really throwing
something fun out there. What I really want to get to is this, about how the
Warhammer Titan could be the missing link to a mystery. You know about how the
walls were supposedly created by millions and millions of colossal Titans.
Do you really think this was done using only the power of the founding Titan? The
recent chapter revealed about how the king and Tybur family once worked
together. When I first saw the alchemist abilities of the Warhammer
I had this idea. What if the Warhammer Titan also helped to build
the walls? You got the founding Titan using his power to control the Colossal
Titans. The colossal Titans then harden. The problem is now that you're left with
this massively uneven wall. This is where the Warhammer Titan could come in. The
Warhammer Titan could have helped build the almost perfect top layer of the walls.
This way realistically the walls could have been built in a short short
time. Otherwise the king would have had to use every Eldian to focus on layering
the walls for decades and decades. I know it's not completely the same but let's
look back at the Great Wall of China. As a comparison the total perimeter of wall
Maria is about 3,000 kilometers. The last piece of the great wall was about
six thousand kilometers. That took about two hundred years to build if you take
half of that you got 100 years and sure in attack on Titan you don't actually
have to build the walls just layer them. In this case that also involves two
other walls Wall rose and wall Sina. I don't think I would have taken a hundred
years but it still would have taken several several decades to do so. So far
in canon there's been really almost no evidence of people actively working on
the walls. They just kind of appeared one day so this highly supports idea that
the warhammer Titan played a huge role in building the Eldian cage on
Paradise Island but hey that's just an attack on Titan theory! Anyway more
important is what you think! Do you think the warhammer Titan is too overpowered?
what do you think could be its weakness? And what do you think about my theory
about how the warhammer titan helped to build their cage? By the way
definitely gave a colossal thumbs up and subscribe. A lot more attack on titan
videos are coming. Right now I'm trying pretty hard to get a weekly schedule
going on plus attack on Titan videos isn't the only stuff coming. By the way
do check out my top anime for 2017 go ahead and find out if there's anything
you missed and I'll see you guys later
