That Isayama (creator of Attack on Titan) has been planning for the anime to be a sequel to the manga rather than an adaptation of it.
There's a lot of evidence to support this but the one piece that kind of kicked off the theory is the fact that Attack on Titan copied a lot from a game called Muv-Luv. The ending of Muv-Luv 2 is even nearly identical to the ending of Attack on Titan. In Muv-Luv 3, they introduced multiple timelines and it had a different ending. So if Isayama can copy and ending once he can probably do it twice.
Interesting, looking into this more now
Thanks for the info
The megathread on r/ANRime has a all the info on the theory. But be aware that there is manga spoilers and posts made by terminally online people arguing with other terminally online individuals who disagree with the theory. The entire Attack on Titan Reddit community is a toxic shit show.
Gotcha
It's no worries, I finished reading the manga a while back.
Good looking out tho
