## Key points

- Polygon ranks ten anime with stronger endings than Attack on Titan.
- Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood takes first place.
- Attack on Titan’s ending remains divisive.

## Summary

Polygon argues that Attack on Titan’s controversial, bittersweet finale is compelling but less coherent than several other anime endings.

- Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is ranked first for its thematic closure, character resolution and satisfying payoff.
- Takopi’s Original Sin is praised for treating childhood trauma with sincerity rather than offering a magical quick fix.
- Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion is included for the effectiveness of its concluding arc.
- The article frames these and seven other series as delivering stronger coherence, conviction and catharsis than Attack on Titan.
