Yo, Manuel.

I know it's a little late to suggest this (in my defense, the idea only came to me recently), but would you be willing to take into consideration that, instead of considering all chapters post 106 to be one arc, we split them into two?

It makes perfect sense when you think about it. What I'm suggesting is that chapters 107-121 (or 122) encompass one arc, and 122- be another arc entirely. The first one we would call the Yeagerist Arc (or Yeager bros arc or Yeager Family arc, whichever), since that's pretty much what's the main theme there. Those chapters pretty much deal with Eren and Zeke, their presumed relationship and attempts to reach one another, and the Yeagerist faction loyal to them doing all kinds of crap in the meantime. Even when Marley attacked Shiganshina, those two remained the main theme, as half the battle was spent trying to stop them from coming into contact. Then, of course, the time spent in the paths realm speaks for itself. Hell, we even got Grisha added there, so perhaps The Yeager Family arc might be better.

The second one, obviously, we would either name the Rumbling arc or whatever comes to mind. Heck, this recent poll could very well be the deciding factor.

The fact is, if we try to encompass 107- into one arc, there simply isn't one overreaching theme, idea, or story aspect, except maybe freedom, but even if we choose that, it sort of neglects far too much of everything else.

I know what Isayama said, but that could be interpreted in many ways, especially since translation isn't perfect. He could've meant that we were reaching it, he could've meant that the end of the manga was near, or that he was currently in the process fleshing it out and everything up to it was already decided, ready to be drawn.

Please take this into serious consideration. I know we have a poll, but honestly, I'm not really satisfied with ANY suggestion, even the ones I offered and chose, simply because it feels none of them really get the idea across of what an arc name is supposed to be.
