EMAymniam
MovieEMAymniam fuses reworked passages of two earlier cues, E・M・A and YAMANAIAME, into a single 5:30 Hiroyuki Sawano track first issued on the soundtrack of the debut Attack on Titan compilation film. Its later TV placements range from Flegel's gambit against the Military Police to the last embrace between Eren and Armin.
Overview
EMAymniam holds the fourth slot on the album for the franchise's first compilation movie, subtitled Guren no Yumiya and released on March 18, 2015. The piece found a second home on June 7, 2017 as the second cut on disc two of the Season 2 Original Soundtrack. Like the rest of the score preceding The Final Season, it is the work of composer and arranger Hiroyuki Sawano, and it runs five and a half minutes.
Plot
The awkward name simply advertises the recipe: reworkings of two earlier cues, E・M・A and YAMANAIAME, stitched into one piece. Two halves structure the track. Up to 3:26, a YAMANAIAME remix carries the opening stretch through 1:38, after which a treatment of E・M・A's first section fills 1:48 to 2:53.
From 3:27 onward the material returns to YAMANAIAME: its ostinato appears twice, at 3:40 to 3:54 and 4:07 to 4:22, before that song's bridge closes the piece from 4:23 through the final bars.
Reception
Its film debut scores triumph: the cue plays while Eren hauls the boulder to seal the breach in Guren no Yumiya. On television, the second half accompanies Flegel turning the tables on the Military Police officers chasing him in episode 41, then returns in episode 69 as Eren opens up about how deeply his friends matter to him.
The finale gave the piece its heaviest duty. It underscores Hange reuniting with dead comrades in the afterlife, seen in the first THE FINAL CHAPTERS special and episode 89, and the embrace Eren and Armin share in the second special and episode 94.
