The story of Attack on Titan or Shingeki no Kyojin began with the destruction of humanity, and those who managed to survive did it behind walls just over 50 meters high to protect themselves from the Titans.
As we learned, the titans did not need food to live, since they could live without it for more than 100 years, while they do not have a complete digestive system.
As a result of season 3, we were able to learn more secrets regarding the origin of the titans, the types of these creatures that exist, and it’s very sad what pure titans have to do.
One explanation is that changelings are those humans who acquire one of the 9 powers of the original titans, are sentient even in that form, and revert to human form at will.
Other types of Titans do not possess this and eat humans for only one reason: they hope to meet the Titan Shifter in order to steal its power and become human again. Oh!
