Was Marley Revealed in The First Episode?

That picture was shown about 60 times before Marley was revealed and we never thought about that boat

The little details hidden in the show and the manga Isayama created is one of the reasons why I love this show

[Auramaki_]

It's been 3 months since the show ended, and we're STILL finding new details about it

[WolfPackIncorperated]

Aot foreshadowing is insane it really shows that the creator had the entire plot mapped out and didn’t change things on the fly

[raymond-jfke]

Why is there so many things hidden in episode one 😭

[Crestfallen]

that ship is actually the ship armin and the rest of "the scouts" are coming back on because the entire story already happened and it's just a retelling from armin

[milkduds]

There’s also the dream Eren has in episode 1, where it briefly shows military uniforms that look like they belong to the tybur family.

[GemzOSC]

As an overanalyzer I agree aot is too complicated even for me

[antoniopraide]

In the second ending “the great escape” you can see all living members of the 104th together near a wall. On one side of the wall, eren, mikasa, Connie, armin, Jean and Sasha.
On the other side of the wall, annie, reiner, berthold ymir and historia.
This could be an early hint at the other Titan shifters being from Marley.

Its hard to believe that isayama had everything planned out since the beginning, he is truly an artist

[victherocker]

These details just show how well planned out the entire series were. From beginning to the end, everything was planned out and executed perfectly as planned, just like the plot of the story itself.

[sloth]

It's a given for any story's plotline to already be decided at the start (this can include the introduction, climax, ending, et al.) I believe Isayama had already likely planned everything, but changed bits as the show progressed. It's crazy impressive to plan a story like AOT. A kind of story that comes once in a lifetime.

[razer_the_red_lantern]

I feel like with the somewhat complicated lore and hidden details all throughout, AoT is the Gravity Falls of anime.

[Alice.Morningstar]

For the longest time, I thought it was just an old painting sort of thing (cus I knew the titans came from somewhere obviously), but I thought it was symbolism and not related to that…

But we all know now what that really is…

[dfmrcv]

There's actually a bigger detail if you pause the very opening shots of the episode. There is a doll of Marley's hero seen in one of the shots.

[marcuscarana]

Eldians get exiled in upside down Madagascar a very long time ago.

King of the Eldians uses superpower to build walls.

Marley from upside down Africa does not forgive.

Marley sends Eldian prisoners to Madagascar.

Eldian prisoners gets injected with titan serum.

Eldian prisoners turn into titans.

Then Eldian titans surround the walls.

And that's the story where the titans in season one come from.

[DukeMadDuck]

I could watch SNK in a bucle forever such a masterpiece with deep characters and plot

[shunein]

When I first started watching aot I noticed that lol

[ryuukiie]

i don't even realize it was a map drawing, i always thought it was some random board.

[Flowst-px]

i think the boat is the boat at the end where we see armin and other go to negotiate with yagerists (because armin is the narrator of the whole show so the boat is from the location where he is narrating)
