About "Rumbling arc" I think it would work even if the Rumbling doesn't happen (although I'm of the opinion that what's currently going on already qualifies as the Rumbling happening), because if it doesn't happen, it means it will be stopped and that would be the stakes of the arc : preventing a full scale Rumbling. Ever since the first flashback chapters of this arc, the Rumbling was brought up as a solution. The stakes then became to try to find another solution. Then, after the attack on Liberio it stopped being about preventing it but instead taking measures to make it happen (Shiganshina being evacuated, the military wanting to clear things out with the Volunteers and Eren to be sure he wasn't controlled by Zeke so they could safely let them experiment it, the Yeagerists seizing power so Zeke and Eren could come in contact and trigger it). Whatever happens next will either be the Rumbling happening or the Rumbling being stopped. In both cases, the Rumbling still is the center of things.

One possible problem may be that it seems Kodansha US dropped the name "Rumbling" for "Earth-Shaking". But Rumbling or the word Rumble can also refer to other things. A Rumble/Rumblings can be defined as "a widespread expression of dissatisfaction or unrest". Sounds familiar? That perfectly summarizes the first part of this arc. The idea of Rumble can also refer to the current fight. And finally, it also refers to a low heavy rolling sound like the footsteps of millions of Colossal Titans walking, hence the name. So yeah, I just like how the idea of Rumbling can be applied to different aspects of this arc and I think it would be a shame to not put it as a potential candidate. If "Rumbling" arc doesn't convey those different aspects, then maybe "The Rumble arc" does the trick, but I've already proposed two names. If it's accepted though, I'm okay if it replaces my proposition of "The Attack Titan" arc. And the thing is, if Rumbling isn't officialy a term for releasing the Wall Titans on the world, then Rumble arc shouldn't be considered spoilery as someone who only read the official translations would probably interpret it as a normal person would, and be intrigued by what it means.
