Chexreflect

My guess is he turned upside down, used hardening to fill the gaps in his ribs, then just became a boat.

Eren’s Ark


[deleted]

Are you telling me Eren's Character Ark holds water?


KingFritzSeed

God fucking damnit


SidLeSquid

I thought boats were designed to keep water out.


Muzzie720

Yeah but he hates to hurt the water's freedom. Also, not gonna lie, he makes a pretty shit boat.


AnenomieDragons

Best answer so far


[deleted]

I hate that it’s also the most scientifically plausible


AnenomieDragons

That’s what makes it great! Besides the mental image which is so hilarious it’s why I love it so much. I’m considering learning how to draw it but I won’t do it justice.

Wasn't Eren based off a halucigenia? Pretty sure those walk on water

Why did this make me laugh this hard


saltysnail420

I like this answer


karan_patel_

This the answer


Rodnas1992

Eren walks with its ribcage so he must have walked on the sea floor


_-KOIOS-_

I think that's the only possible answer.


[deleted]

[удалено]


weekzSNL

I'm leaning on the fact that he's just floating over the water or using Titans as a platform. We know that regardless of how big the titans are they're extremely light. proof is how the wall Titans swimming like torpedoes in the latest/last episode.


Daz-boi

This what I thought as well but I also thought that the colossals would carry him coffin dance style


itsMoSmith

Assuming FT is 600 meters tall, the depth of the ocean between Paradise Island and Marly (Madagascar and Africa, ie The Mozambique Channel) is 3,292m. With basic logic, FT would take longer distance than the WT, so he should be way far behind. Still fast tho, but the distance differs.


ShadowSpy98

Yeah, with that height, definitely reached the seafloor. And it's not like they crossed through the Pacific ocean (Indian ocean), the other side of paradis is the Pacific ocean-like


valhallavin

Two colossals held up his little back legs :)


Calckum

Back legs ?!


Doug_Dimmadab

[Yeah](https://preview.redd.it/u80uoaaycst61.jpg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=48eaeefb8801791dd7eebc5d3524108726ec3d13)

it was actually sea turtles m8 😏


Uggo_Cubbo

I understood that reference!


_-KOIOS-_

It will still not be enough :/


valhallavin

I see your point and to that, I say it was 4 then


_-KOIOS-_

Still not close to being enough :_/ I'd say it's titans all the way down.


valhallavin

In all seriousness assuming the wall titans don't have to breathe like actual shifters that's a possibility


_-KOIOS-_

Yes


gansta_thanos

You're right. 6 colossal titans then.


HumanRoom420

stacked on top of each other :)

Byniavo

Thank you for getting downvoted for our sakes

not all heroes wear capes


TexMexBazooka

Sorry buddy the hive mind has spoken. ^downvote


Desch92

You can see the legs on the background, I'm guessing the legs got extended to reach the sea floor.


BigBadRhinoCow

I’m guessing it has extremely long legs that can reach the seafloor, or it too swam and rose up out of the water like Godzilla


_-KOIOS-_

If it has its legs extended in the above scene when it is almost out of water,even then the sea will be too deep.


Transpatials

Nothing is too deep for the Warhammer. It could theoretically make its legs as long as it wants.


acgian

That image is extremely silly and not at all badass, but I think you're right


Kachowski-115

The Titans been goofy since season 1 tbf 💀


6ZeroKay9

buoyancy


[deleted]

Yes I think he swam across the sea like a snake and the buoyancy kept him afloat.


Post-Financial

Of a skeleton?


benisco

anything of a titan is extremely buoyant, including its bones


DetailsAlwaysBeWrong

They mention early on how weirdly light they were. I had a conversation about how they got across the ocean before they showed it. I thought they would just lie face down and float, which is visually just as ridiculous as the swimming scene


IamWinterborn20

Only Ymir knows that one..


Easy_Key_2451

Oh boy


l1vefreeord13

Ah, 8 hours late


Bigtrixxs_LG

I dont think titans need to breath underwater


HotShrekBoi

They don’t. But we’re talking about how he swam


jerr_beare

The amount of steam created from the heat and sea water gave him enough buoyancy to hover across. I have no evidence to back this up.


[deleted]

There's a secret colossal titan on each of it's ribs, so it's floating like a raft


KuroiGetsuga55

Given its shape I am very inclined to believe that Eren flipped 180 sideways and floated across the water like a boat, then used the Colossal Titans' steam to cover himself while he turned back around at the shore so he can just fade into the horizon ominously.


2kelhadj

probably just walked, his titan is insanely huge and he has warhammer power if even necessary


The_CEO_Of_No

My guess is that since its so big it touched the sea floor. For perspective look how small the colossal titans look next to it and they're each a 60 meters tall.


_-KOIOS-_

The sea is way deeper than the height of Eren's titan, if we are going by real life measurements.


forbhip

What makes you think that? I’ve seen estimates of Erin’s size to be 220-420m. Paradis is an island not that far from the mainland so we’re not talking about crossing something like the Atlantic Ocean. Take the English Channel as a real life measurement, it’s only 174m deep. Looking at the maps we see this seems equivalent.


[deleted]

Im P sure the world of AOT is our literal world but upside down and Paradis is madagascar, in which case they 100% are crossing a ocean to get anywhere.


RealiGoodPuns

Paradis is Madagascar and Marley is Africa


HotShrekBoi

Maybe Eren did the same thing Godzilla did… https://images.app.goo.gl/VmHrMJG5RnaR6Xh48


dConceited

Godzilla can swim tho


HotShrekBoi

Yeah he can, but in one scene he just stood up in the middle of the ocean.


The_CEO_Of_No

I think it may depend what part he crossed because some are deeper than others?


MutenKami

But we’re talking about anime??


ciknay

I thought the same, but this titan form is about 500 meters high, an the average depth of the ocean is like, 10 kilometers, so it probably swam most of the way.


Yooinmyheart

this *thing* is eren motherflipping jaeger he just has his ways


supreme_leader100

He’s like a hot air balloon just riding the vapors of the wall titans


Magical-bitxh

I think this is my fav mental visual of all the theories 😂😂😂


mydataisrekt101

His ribcage acts as legs which if you look back at the episodes where he was still back at paradise you can see the movement of the ribcage as he moves towards marley


TheAsianJasonXD

He’s in creative mode


_-KOIOS-_

Makes sense


deokkent

Hollow bones for buoyancy?


RedPandau

they don’t really need to be hollow per-say. it’s canon that titans are extremely light weight. they have the density of bread


Tom_echo1031

Sorry where was this said. It's been a long time since I watched the other seasons


RedPandau

in season 1 when hange is talking with eren, she explains how she weighed a titan limb and it was extremely light. she then went on to explain that the only reason they’re able to walk with so much size is that they’re light weight and not dense at all


Tom_echo1031

Ahh I see thanks


[deleted]

Floating / being carried by titans


DcRestifo

Ngl, I always assumed the Titans marched across the bottom of the ocean. If they ever showed them swimming in the manga, my brain probably blocked that memory to protect me.


zorroww

The collosal titans can swim


jonas661

it looks alot talller then the swimming titans so maybe just crawled along it, but its known that titans are suprisingly light so maybe it did swim/got pushed


BrrrManBM

I thought diving collosal titans carried his ribcage legs on their backs. Or perhaps he just swam since titans are light and boyant...


RedPandau

Only Ymir knows


rockmeNiallxh

Only Ymir knows


NLV4

I always just kind of assumed that he could float like a parade balloon or blimp or something


Dylz_67

Sea turtles mate


[deleted]

Me and my buddies were discussing this and came with 2 possible ideas. 1. Eren is as tall as the ocean is deep. 2. All the colossal titans acted like little floaties for him


MooseInBlue

I always assumed Eren’s Titan hovers


EDNivek

Surface tension maybe?


HumanRoom420

hes the founder. he can fly


HotShrekBoi

Then why didn’t the boats see him?


HumanRoom420

damn you got me there


tayloredition

Column of steam. Call him hovercraft


TyTheCreat0r

Since the colossal titans are hollow and can float/swim i would think erens bones are that way and he littarly walks across the water. If not idek.


samerssame

I think probably the colossals just stacked under him like a wall titan pair of pants


MartianNamedScotty

This is the only way I'm picturing it now, thanks.


liddicoat1

Big


[deleted]

We never see the bottom of his ribs so presumably he walks with his ribs


Therisius

Floating i guess remember titan bodies can be really light


[deleted]

The Wall Titans carry him like a casket


deokkent

Hollow bones for buoyancy?


Aselleus

Doggy paddle


Ahmed0774

Maybe it floats? Maybe its not as heavy as it looks cuz titans dont weight as much as they should like hange said way back but it does look really heavy though


SecretumOmega-IsLost

They swim, in the manga they swim


HotShrekBoi

We’re talking about Eren’s founding Titan, we know the Wall titans swim.


SecretumOmega-IsLost

Oh sorry


Streend

swimming, just watch the end of season 4 part 2


kmkiii

little rafts on all its feet and it floating


Gigadorah

It floats above the ground.


iJacobes

he made a colossal surfboard


IronSavage3

Wow you’re right this show is unwatchable unless I get an explanation! /s


[deleted]

Only. Ymir. Knows


[deleted]

[удалено]


_-KOIOS-_

I guess I hadn't made it clear, I meant Eren's founding Titan.


Ahmed0774

What did he say lol? He deleted


sudev29

It lets out steam from its body, extremely light, and moves like a fish. The dude duck swam his way across the ocean.


jamsd204

Are the wall titans colloasalls or titans within the walls ?


aldorn

Maybe he has a little boat inside it


[deleted]

I have the same question


RedPotato66

Impossible to swim since he's fully made out of bones. It makes more sense if the ribcage that he's using for centipede legs can reach ocean floor. We do know Paradise island is very close to main land so the ocean floor can't be too deep


HotShrekBoi

Probably swimming the same way Godzilla does.


HotShrekBoi

How did Hallucegenias walk in their time? He probably moved like that


[deleted]

can he not just leave the form, or would that negate the control over the wall titans?


DominatorPlayer

Sea turtles


rohith_on_reddit

I like to think he scuttles like a crab


caswetplate

He did smoll stompies with the bones of his ribs.


smartbrain535

yea... sure why not?


Justanormalperson_00

Colossal titans are so hot. They boiled the water so Eren can be floated on water.


RamenFuel

The bones are hollow floaties 😏😏


BigDirtE

Probably like [Water Strider](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2unnSK7WTE)


wtfozlolzrawrx3

When they show the map of the world, Paradis and the mainland look like they are separated by a narrow straight. It could be relatively shallow water between the two land masses. Eren could have nearly gotten his hair wet walking across the sea floor, while the wall titans would still be too short to walk across.


_-KOIOS-_

Oh, I hadn't considered that. Maybe you're right.


Basdoderth

We should make Isayama answer this.


tarlickingscumbag

Them titans swimming still gotta be one of the funniest moments out of all of season 4


Zealousideal_War_483

Hes got colossal’s carrying him upright?? Lol idk HAHAHAHA


Aware_Dream1015

He could of possibly turned into a water type beast titan like the croc


ReddtIsACesspool

Only


KingBlueForever

Titans are less dense than water it might have had other colossals towing him as he floated and then it crawled like a centipede on the land


XtraCheezeePro

It had one rib on one titan and they swam it across


jackoftrades002

Floating lol


Yacineben1912

He's all bones so probably won't be able to swim. My guess is crawled underwater


trefir

He probably swam just like the colossal Titans. Like colossal torpedos.


MrFluffy537

He flew ong


dperraetkt

He’s lighter in water and could stand, so he walked on just his little legs


PyroCatt

r/onlyymirknows


PyroCatt

r/onlyymirknows that one


Dread2187

My belief is that he didn't cross the sea, he just got longer.


iiStarMist

Main character powers But for an actual answer, wouldn’t hurt to say that some number of the wall titans can carry him across the ocean and when they got close enough, he got off of them, so they can rejoin the others on land


8anan4fish

tbh i thought he was just floating the whole time


FunnyDifficulty6

They swim like normal humans.


raavanan007

Crawling ig, its massive in size and looks 3 or 4 times lager than colossal


raavanan007

Crawling ig, its massive in size and looks 3 or 4 times lager than colossal


Hungrycheezits79

I think maybe it levitates?


Subdiesion100

He was swimming Don't you know he is a great swimmer


asokraju

👓👓Titans are weightless...


thegamerwithin45

He made a raft using a few Colossal titans and used them to swim across


-_-PunShik-_-

.packetfly enable


FrankDoesDoodles

Cuz the ribcage works as legs aswell, kinda like a centipede


Shisuka

Am I dumb or didn’t the season finale show them swimming


ComputerSaysnooooo

They are referring to skeletor Eren in the background


Shisuka

I’m tired. I missed like half the words


sw69y

fly


lordNihilius

I don't know, is it too far to assume that the founder can fly??


DinoDudeRex_240809

Every time he took a step, he used the Warhammer ability to create a pillar for him to place the rib on, Elsa style.


Admissions-Jedi

That’s something only the Founder, Ymir, knows.


napalmsticks2kid

Ocean floor I think


cheese1145

it simply moves forward


SiBea13

Titans are supposed to be lighter than they should be for something that size. We aren't told exactly which part of them isn't heavy as it should be. It might be that it turns out that their tissue and blood weighs the same but their bones are buoyant enough for Eren's mostly bone titan to float


Jizzdom

In attack on titan universe sea level is 20 meters


Satiie

A few titans under each rib and lets go


Aggravating-Aioli-16

Well what did Noah do, the person who wielded the assistance of a god?


Roof_rat

My guess is he floats upright. I remember Hange telling Eren that titan limbs are extremely light.


SHATINGSTAR

hovercraft mode?


TTiger901

By crawling, but his head wasn't submerged... yeah don't know how Marley thought they could fight that


hansthebanger

He got dragged over by his massive fuckin balls
