RATE THE CHAPTER

2,275 Responses

When people claim that Isayama is rushing to the end or losing interest in his series, it’s nice to point to the poll. Attack on Titan fans are as happy and enthused as ever . This chapter is no exception with 97% rating it as good to excellent.



I am still fucking SHOOK. I am sobbing for Levi, for Erwin. I want to give my Eremika babies a hug. And I would sell my kidney to see Armin and Hange rn. That’s it, I don’t think I can trust myself around words anymore.



I’ve waited a year for SC to return and I couldn’t ask something better. Good job Isayama, this was really a gorgeous chapter, that creates the bases for all the action and plot to come.



I’m fucking pumped up for this straight up war stuff. The last few panels were the most intense, and Ugh everybody looks sexy. Where’s MY glo up??



Isayama paced the panels of this chapter like an Imax blockbuster and IT WORKED. I COULD HEAR THE ACTION MOVIE SOUNDTRACK WHEN LEVI SHOWED UP, AND WHEN ZEKE SHOWED UP, AND AT THE END. "DON’T DIE. SURVIVE.“ BEST CHAPTER ENDING EVER OR BEST CHAPTER ENDING EVER???



Will Zeke finally show his hand next chapter? Also, I really hope Falco’s alright… Pieck was able to get suited up and Reiner is still nowhere in sight.



This is hands down the best chapter of this manga I’ve ever read. And I have some HIGH opinions of past chapters.



I’m glad february is 28 days long



WHAT MOMENT WAS MOST EMOTIONAL FOR YOU?

2,287 Responses

This was close!! The vote was split between “all of the above”, “seeing the survey corps” and “Mikasa crying over Eren’s actions”. I delighted that Mikasa pulled off the victory!



I got the most emotional not when I saw Mikasas tears, but at Eren’s expression when he saw that, there was so much happening in there. How this dude isn’t completely insane by now I don’t know



I wanted to vote again because Udo’s confirmed death and Mikasa’s crying are the emotional moments for me.

pour one out to the gate guards them mans did nothin wrong ;(((

The scene that hurt me the most was when Gabi started heading to kill Eren. God… That made me so sad. The parallels are overwhelming and so, so well done.







WHAT YOUR FAVORITE MOMENT?

2,287 Responses

You can tell a great chapter when our list of 12 favorite moments isn’t enough. “Seeing the Survey Corps” was the winner with 32.9% of the vote. The War Hammer’s abilities and “Dual Ackermans cutting it up” also had strong showings.



Chapter was amazing for sure, but the real highlight was Pieck’s shifter lines. I saw a woman so beautiful I started crying!



Magath once again proves he’s one of the best characters in the series. He may be the "villain” to Paradis, but goddamn if he isn’t one of my favorite characters.



Glad to see my boy Galliard on the attack with the jaw. I hope he doesn’t get wrecked or die.



Levi entering like a badass was the best



I want an entire chapter to be devoted to springles taking a break from the battle to go raid some food stands. Sasha needs to experience the miracle that is pizza. And maybe the food chapter will finally answer all our sour cream questions



I’m just really really glad Levi is not bald. Now I just hope Armin doesn’t have facial hair.



Love the moment with Mikasa and Eren the most. It wasn’t on the best moments list, but it’s excellent thematic and character writing.



Thanks to the “gremlin” jaw titan I would sell my soul for an AU where all the titans are the same but extremely small. Like…cat-sized.







WHICH CHARACTER HAD THE BEST GLO UP?

2,292 Responses

Was there ever a doubt that Sasha would take this? Almost 40% agreed that the potato girl is just stunning! Jean was second with 27%.



Been an entire year since we saw most of Squad Levi 2.0 AND IT WAS WORTH IT. That glow up was AMAZING!!! Jean has become a stallion!!! Sasha is a beaut! Connie is so handsome! Bless Levi and sticking to his roots!



Sasha was such a babe, dear lord.



Jean looks so strong and mature, like the leader we know he is… and amazingly hot.



Does anyone actually know where Levi gets his concealer bc he’s supposed to be 38(?) but he looks 25



holy shit sasha is beautiful



Levi is as badass as ever. Sasha is a babe and Mikasa done with the cruel world



Jean went from being a horse…TO A STALLION!!!



i want sasha to bake my potato



I’m straight and Springles turned out hot, Jean’s hot, Floch’s Trump, Eremika’s still hot and Levi looks old as hell



my best boy Connie has grown by a few inches <3

POST TIMESKIP SASHA THOUGH. I HAVE NO WORDS. SHE’S BECOME 10/10 the hottest female in the series



It’s happened. You all thought me crazy, but I was right all along. Connie/Hair, the one true pairing of the SNK fandom, is 100% confirmed canon. Mark it on your calendars, folks. This is the month we made history

Why they keep saying that Mikasa become manly, she is cute!!!



Jean-Boy has ascended into Daddy Jean.



Levi looks the same…well, there’s nothing to improve ;)



WHICH CHARACTER WERE YOU MOST EXCITED TO SEE?

2,277 Responses

I was a little worried the poll would get spammed this month since fans can get competitive about their favorites, but I saw none of that. For 48.2% of us, Levi was the character we were most excited to see. Jean and Mikasa were far distant second and thirds.



MIDGET SPINNER IS BACK



Smh where’s my hype about Connie being the tallest person present



I am blessed to see my son levi I am…



I’m just so happy to see my children again. :’)

When Levi showed up I had to say: 🎵"I’M CRYING! MIISSSING MY LOOOVER!“ 🎵

Where is Armin!?!?!?!? I miss him ;-(





RATE THE EVOLUTION OF FLOCH’S HAIR FROM REPULSIVE LIKE A TRUMP COMB OVER TO CUTE LIKE A CIRCA 2009 BEIBER SIDE SWEEP

2,260 Responses

When he isn’t opening his mouth, 30% of us think Floch is rather cute. While no one said anything about Floch’s hair in the comments, they had plenty to say about Floch himself.



Floch the GrimReminderofHumanity can practically start a new cult. I’m in. "my mission is to bring the devil back to life” (ch 84) – “to us, those demons are necessary” (ch 102) – “make Paradis great again” (oh wait what do you mean that wasn’t what he said?)



flock is an amusingly irritating character as always, i really hope he survives till the end

I hated Floch in his original introduction, but I appreciate that he’s the only one who recognizes that Eren needs to do what he’s doing.



i am so glad Floch is still a part of the story

I expected Flocke to be on the background throwing shades at Eren like the living anon rude message he is, instead not only he agreed with Erekin Skywalker decision but he was on the fucking frontline blowing up a fucking building and ready to wreck the shit out of everything remotely related to Marley. What a guy.







IT’S BEEN NOTICED THAT LEVI IS THE ONLY CHARACTER TO WEAR A CAPE. WHAT BEST MATCHES YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS?

2,279 Responses

75% believe the cape has meaning beyond being an article of clothing, a large number of those feel like Erwin was a factor. We had 164 write in comments on this question. Here are a few:



it’s Erwin’s. And Levi soaked it in Erwin’s blood, that’s why it’s darker, because he’s obviously still grieving like the loyal waifu he is and once he kills Sieg he’s gonna suffocate himself in erwin’s blood scent and die so he can finally be reunited with his husbando, because he clearly doesn’t care about anything else uwu

Seeing Levi back brought tears to my eyes, I’m so glad to see that unlike the other characters, he hasn’t changed much. He’s still holding onto the past, holding onto his memories of Erwin, his promise that he still needs to fulfill. It’s nice to see that Erwin’s death isn’t something Levi can recover from easily, that even after all this time he is completely focused on Zeke and taking him down. Four years is a long time. I missed him so much.



Levi is a creature of habit. And a beacon and all that shit.



He’s like those old guys who yell at you for using social media but they end up making a very cringy facebook acount anyway



Back in my day, we wore capes all the time. And we didn’t just wear them, we worked ‘em

It is what he wore from his start in the corps and I think he wears it to remember his squad and all the vets who have died, especially commander Erwin.



He’s stubborn and probably likes his cape. Man can’t go into battle lacking style.



Erwin may be gone, BUT HE WAS NOT FORGOTTEN!



Seeing Levi being the only one wearing the “"Erwin era”“ SC uniform is a big flag for me that Levi hasn’t forgotten his promise to Erwin and it’s likely he may join him soon :( - but maybe that’s my soft spot for Eruri showing.



He is a cold, hairless goblin.



I was conflicted between the "it’s symbolic of the past” option and the “eeeerrrrwwwwiiiinnnn” option, so I wrote here I chose both since imo they are the same . #neverforgetthoseeyebrows



He’s wearing it so he can be easily identified by Monkey Trouble so he will shit his pants upon recognizing him



Cranky old man likes his haircut, cape and blades, fandom be damned.

Levi is just that extra





IS EREN ACTING WITH HIS OWN WILL OR IS HE POSSESSED BY THE ATTACK TITAN

2,283 Responses

While very few think Eren is completely possessed, a majority do believe that he is being influenced by powers outside of his control. This is one of those times the poll results surprise me.



One thing I’ll note about Eren is that his reactions are kinda odd to me. There are moments where he genuinely looks as if he’s regretful of the circumstances but almost grudgingly charges on anyway. I guess that bleeds into the “probably influenced by attack Titan” thing, in which it’s like it’s a person saying “Go” and he allows it to pull him along.



Eren is possessed by the attack titan, it’s been foreshadowed ever since EM were in the cell back in Paradis. The key is to overcome that will somehow. MA knows this, and hope for ”their Eren” to come back. I think Eren has been only semi-conscious about his actions after the ocean scene.



IT’S TIME TO ASK THIS AGAIN. HOW WOULD YOU RATE EREN’S MORALITY ON A SCALE FROM “GENOCIDAL KILLER” TO “TOTALLY JUSTIFIED”

2,280 Responses

I do wish we’d made this scale with an even number so people were forced to pick one side or another. As it is, the majority chose the safety of the middle option. Looking at this curve, it’s clear that a sizable percentage of the fandom are worried or uncertain about Eren. On the other side, 260 respondents (11.4%) see Eren’s actions as being totally justified in the massacre at the theater and residential apartment.



Awesome character development of Eren. From being a knuckle headed impulsive brat ( typical anime portagonist ) to a cold and ruthless killer . He didn’t dive head first but used his head to capture the Warhammer titan. Hats off.



They declared war first, Eren is justified



Eren’s DEFINITELY becoming more of an antagonist now, which is sad because it’s ruining his character and NOT actual character development.



Questioning Eren’s actions is perfectly reasonable, but trying to make a final judgement call right now seems too early. This shouldn’t devolve into a with-us-or-against-us mentality that goes nowhere.

Eren, please. Stop what you’re doing. You’re becoming a Devil. You have been too far, you crossed the line. Stop making Mikasa crying because of your warcrime of willing doing civilian casualities. Please.



Eren’s demeanor is terrifying



i’m too mad & disappointed with eren that’s all



Isyama has done a good job at shrouding Paradise and Eren in mystery, to mirror Marley and the titans from the early series. This is clearly setting up to bring us a final arch told from two perspectives, a bold and ambitious, but exciting choice.



I feel like it’s still too early to judge Eren’s actions as we’re not being told the full story - as “"unforgivable”“ as his actions are, there is still a lot to uncover about him and his experiences from the past 4 YEARS



So, where’s the denial standing at this point? Are people pissed at Mikasa for calling Eren out, or "respectfully” disagreeing with her and her tears and still coming up with excuses for his “justification?” Either way, wasn’t expecting such a blunt call out. I’m nonetheless pleased. Ecstatic, even. I do wonder how much more Mikasa is willing to tolerate, though.



Eren did everything wrong

EREN DID NOTHING WRONG







HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT TO HUG MIKASA?

2,279 Responses

It’s been a rough few chapters for Mikasa so we thought we’d try to gauge fandom sympathy for her. This question ranged from “I’ll pass” to “I am her parent now”. 53% of respondents chose the highest option, while almost 10% selected “I’ll pass.”



Fun fact: In chapter 100, we asked this same question about Reiner. In his case, 20% chose the lowest two options. With Mikasa’s, that number is 15%. With Reiner 38% selected the highest option.



kudos to Mikasa for voicing what we all have been thinking, I don’t think she was thinking less of Eren there like many had interpreted but she had things to say about his actions.



If now I’m Mikasa parent, will she call me daddy?



I’m glad Mikasa called Eren out on his shit, that’s actually a big step for her and I’m proud. She’s realised she can still protect him while also disapproving of his actions and not following him blindly.



Mikasa showed more emotions in one chapter than she did in the entire Uprising Arc. If that is not the sign that she’s getting development, I don’t fucking know what is.



I got so worked up about the “"I am her parent now”“ that I clicked twice. Please let my girl Mikasa be happy…



I don’t think Mikasa is pissed with Eren. I think she is just extremely sad to see him transformed in this. It’s like she is sad for the man he had to become. There is no going back from this, she says, and it’s true. Eren, as a person, can’t go back from this. We still have yet to see what reasoning he had for taking this route. Hell, we don’t really know anything, guys.





IN THE CHAPTER 100 POLL, 70% BELIEVED EREN AND ZEKE WERE WORKING TOGETHER. NOW THAT ZEKE HAS RETURNED TO THE BATTLEFIELD, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

2,274 Responses

Amazing how a month can change things. Previously 70% of us believed Zeke and Eren were working together. That number has dropped to 25%. The majority of 63% believe his objectives aren’t tied to any allegiance.

He goes on ONE bathroom break and everyone thinks he’s holding a coup.

Zeke tried to rush the war declaration when he said he has only 1 year left so i guess he knew and wanted to draw Eren to his side cuz bros before ackerhoes



i’m still under zeke-is-not-working-with-eren shock

Warrin’ Zekevon is in it to win it



Zeke will use the warriors to his own advantage.



It could go either way and I will be simultaneously very shocked, yet have known it all along deep down



Obviously, Isayama has trolled us with the letter and baseball items. At first I thought that he wanted to be eaten by Eren, then that he would betray Pieck… I don’t know now. He just seems to want to fuck up in a very twisted way. He’s not on his mind, probably. Jaegers are mad.



CAN ISAYAMA PLS CONFIRM ALREADY BECAUSE I DONT EVEN HAVE ANY IDEA ANYMORE

I feel like he’s cooperating with Eren to a certain degree, but ultimately he has his own agenda and is only cooperating with Eren because of it.



when I read that Zeke said to kill the SC, my first thought was "ok so they aren’t working together”, but now that I’ve calmed down a bit, I think they might still be. Zeke is cunning. He can act. But he definitely also has his own agenda. AHHHH this series…..



I’m calling it right now. Zeke is going to betray Porco and Pieck. He’s just so… shady…



Zeke is layered af, other warriors don’t know of his ties with EREN,but they are aware of the fact that zeke himself don’t fully trust the MARLEY. The “battlefield” could be just a show zeke is putting on for MARLEY to witness and give him even more credibility,which will be useful later for his wishes.

Zeke may be working with Eren but he is sure as shit not working with the Survey Corps.









IN THE CHAPTER 99 POLL, 78% THOUGHT TRAPDOOR-KUN WAS CONNIE. WHO DO YOU THINK IT IS NOW?

2,280 Responses

The thought that trapdoor-kun was Connie fell from 78% to 14% in three months. Meanwhile Armin rose from 5% to 22%. Most of us have given up all speculation on the topic. “I have no idea“ is the majority view.



I can’t believe there are still people who think Trapdoor-kun is Armin. Come on. It’s clearly Connie with a fake beard! Why else would the beard have been pointed out by Pieck?



eyes and jawline,Connie. height and facial hair, Jean. I’m confused af now



An obsessed porco/pieck shipper



Connie shaved right after that.



Trapdoor-kun isn’t Connie, Connie has gotten taller, but he didn’t get that tall. He is about average height now, but Trapdoor-kun is described as “Lanky” while towering over Porco so he is easily 6'3" or taller



There really aren’t that many living characters that fit Mr. Trapdoor’s features of dark eyes and blondish, short hair. Maybe Boris from the MP lmao? Anyway, my bet is that it’s someone random or maybe Isayama just miscolored Connie’s eyes.

I just really hope its not Armin, I dont need any more facial hair on my 104ths

Marcel who has come back with in an unexpected flashforward



OKAY I WAS IN THE CONNIE CAMP but I am happy to be mistaken because actually connie is a confirmed QT





DO YOU THINK PIECK IS MISTRUSTFUL OF ZEKE?

2,269 Responses

70% say yes! And since the majority of us believe Zeke is shady as hell, that would make her exactly right!



Pieck looking absolutely mad and hella suspicious at Zeke was one of the best moments for me.



Porco was super excited to see Zeke and Pieck had a look of death at him. She knows something is up.



Pieck looking mistrustful of Zeke better not end up being a Red Herring, I think this uncertainty makes things interesting and sets up Zeke’s own motives (zekerets at last?)







GABI’S GOT A GUN AND SHE’S OFF TO TAKE REVENGE. WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN?

2,285 Responses

These are some grim poll numbers, my friends. In total, 78% of respondents think a death is going to result from Gabi’s angry rampage. 45% think she will kill someone, 26% believe she will die as well.



“Dear Gabi, I have a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long otaku career. If you let Best Girl live (aka Sasha), that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you! You’ve been warned…

Ps: Feel free to kill Eren though.”



Gabi if you’re gonna kill one of our people can it be Floch?

Gabi is 100% going to kill someone we love. The plot doesn’t seem to wrap around anything else with Gabi but that.

Gabi was the character in this chapter that really got me worried. The parallels between her and younger Eren are obvious, but I think the most terrible part is just the recurring cycle of violence.



I can’t help but hope Isayama uses Gabi’s character for a more positive message (i.e. her breaking this cycle of hatred and war somehow or at least contributing to it) rather than seeing the cycle repeat again. Even if the story ends bittersweet or even tragically, I don’t want the message of SNK to be that humans are beyond hope.

I think instead of Gabi killing or getting killed, she’s going to get caught in the crossfire of the battle and gets her ass saved by one of the SC, which will make her question everything she knows and believes.



This is pure speculation, but I suspect that if a member of the SC dies by Gabi’s hands, Floche is the one who makes the most sense, narratively speaking. We’re too attached to the others, and it’s been too long since we’ve seen them, for their deaths to be emotionally interesting. We need to see how the years have developed them, and then I’m sure many of our beloveds will die, but they deserve buildups to their deaths. Floche, on the other hand…



If Gabi kills someone like Connie I will quit everything and live in the forest





WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE LIGHTS THAT THE SCOUTING LEGION IS SETTING UP?

2,257 Responses

57.2% believe a Bertl Bomb Redux is on the horizon. 23.3% think the lights are to show what areas are clear of enemies, while 15.9% believe the Survey Corps will have an aerial escape.



COLOSSAL TITAN BOMB BAYBEE



Hanji’s on their way on a freaking plane need light to land (let me dream damit!)



Unless they’ve managed to wake up all the Colossal Titans in the walls and are planning on dropping them on everyone’s heads, it better be something pretty damn good or their asses are toast.



It seems to be some sort of signal, they seem to be attacking in waves. Eren signaled the first wave, this will likely signal a second, whatever that entails.



I think they don’t want to hurt civilians (or at least not if they can avoid it) (or maybe I’m just hoping) and the lights are there for Armin, so when he attacks, he won’t step on the buildings in case there are any people left.



Possibly for an escape signal but I’m 300% sure they are made of crystals from the Reiss cave which I still stand is a fucking chekhov’s gun waiting to explode



To show which buildings are of innocent civilians, so SC won’t destroy them since one of their objectives is not too kill too many innocent people (in case you didn’t got it dear Eren)







EREN’S ATTEMPT TO VORE LADY TYBUR’S CRYSTAL COULD BE AN INDICATION THAT ANNIE HAS MET A SIMILAR FATE. AFTER BEING MISSING FROM THE MANGA FOR 69 CHAPTERS, HOW MUCH HOPE DO YOU HAVE FOR THE RETURN OF ANNIE

2,281 Responses

We couldn’t stop looking at these results while we were collecting responses - it’s essentially a four way tie. While the fandom wants to believe Annie will be back, there’s a lot of uncertainty. Ymir’s off screen death and Lady Tybur’s crystal have given many doubt.



Annie is confirmed out of the crystal. Whether that means she’s alive and allied or been eaten by Eren or someone else, I can’t say yet. I’ personally leaning towards “she’s dead” and Eren ate her (since he’s clearly trying to reunite the Titans).



ANNIE PLEASE COME BACK



every new chapter it’s getting more and more likely Annie pulled an Ymir. :( I wish we could meet her again



Annie’s not dead. I don’t care that Eren tried to eat the warhammer titan while she was in a crystal, ANNIE IS NOT DEAD AND I REFUSE TO BELIEVE OTHERWISE. She’ll come back to us… I know she will…



The good news: Annie is no longer in her crystal.

The bad news: Her chances of being alive are abyssal.



i really want annie back but i feel like i’m clinging to a shred of hope so thin it might as well be my chance of getting into my dream college

I was an honest-to-God firm believer that Annie was dead. She could be still if she truly doesn’t need anything to live while inside the crystal, or unless they managed to break her out. However, I now feel 100% that she was not eaten since the only ones capable of that are Eren and Armin.



if Annie gets the Ymir treatment I’m gonna have words to say on how Isayama treats his female characters and none of them will be pretty.

with Annie, I’m really hoping to see her again. Isayama has been dropping so many hints that her allegiance to Marley was waning. I want her to show up and Reiner just be like “You Traitor!” Then she’s like “Fuck you guys. You’re mean and I just wanna see my dad





ANY THOUGHTS ON EREN’S RELATIONSHIP WITH ARMIN?

2,277 Responses

68% believe Armin and Eren are a-ok. I tend to agree with the first comment below that Armin is probably more ok with the current situation than Mikasa.



Armin was originally the one to argue the necessity of "giving up one’s humanity to overcome monsters”. If He and Eren had an ideological split, it wasn’t over this. At most, any friction would have probably been Armin convincing a reluctant Eren to go through with what he did.



just give us the f***ing EMA separation already. There’s been hints, and even Mikasa’s giving a more distant but still caring vibe towards Eren. I want the character development that will come with it so badly, I just want it confirmed already.



I never did understand Armin, but now more than ever, I want to know what his thoughts about this situation are.



Armin is slowly abandoning his remaining humanity to overcome the monster that is “the world”, and will be the real genocidal monster in the end.



please, I just want Eren and Armin’s relationship to still be as beautiful as it was. It is the most prominent and loveliest bonds I have ever seen. It would be so heartbreaking if it were destroyed.









WE’VE SEEN ALL THE TITANS AND WHAT THEY CAN DO. WHICH IS YOUR FAVORITE?

2,278 Responses

She spikes, she spears, she materializes a freakin’ cross bow. The War Hammer Titan is crazy op and wins with a landslide, Attack and Armored are the distant second and third.



Lady Tybur is the biggest badass ever. If she’d gone to Paradis, they would have been screwed.



Wat Hammer Titan OP. pls nerf



Picking a favorite titan is hard, since they all have cool abilities. So I picked the Founding because you get awesome psychic powers.







WHOSE DEATH FLAGS ARE FLYING THE HIGHEST RIGHT NOW?

2,228 Responses

With 42.6%, Sasha gets this dubious distinction, followed by Gabi with 36%. Lady Tybur is third with 33.5%.



Get those deathflags away from the walldians! We just got them back!!



Reiner MUST be alive. He’s the one who always defies death, and he’s made the mind change in Marley, along with Falco. I’m still afraid to see Colt ending like Farlan, or Hanji like Erwin.



The amount of luck that the 104h has is insane and ridiculous at this point. It’s time for one of them (at least) to die. My bet is Sasha. It seems like she’s the only one not wearing a chest plate, so it would be pretty ironic and fitting for SNK if she’d be shot by Gabi. I’d also like to see my best girl Pieck taking out someone from the SC (and I don’t mean the randos).

My hopes of Falco surviving are diminishing with each second I don’t see him T_T and put that fucking gun down Gabi



While I am more in the favor of our main protagonists and the 104th my heart is breaking knowing that most likely more of my Marley innocent poor little babies will die in this battle.



Part of me thinks Gabi’s death is being teased but that it’s not gonna happen. Most of her friends have already been killed, so I think she might live. If I’m picking a SC member that’s gonna die, I think Connie, but I’m hoping Floch because I hate him. Then Pieck, I really like her, so I don’t want her to die, but I’m thinking she’s loyal to Zeke and has a chance of being taken out.



IM IN DENIAL OF ANY DEATH FLAGS



Spare Pieck pls ;_;

Porco please don’t die too soon, you are the one and only funny character at this point



If Gabi so much as harms a single beautiful hair on Jean’s perfect head, she is joining the ranks of characters I hate.







HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT A PARADIS FLASHBACK?

2,285 Responses

Only 38% strongly want a Paradis flashback. The excitement of Marley has many feeling alright with staying put for now.



I definitely want that Paradis flashback, absolutely, but not now. I’m much too scared for Reiner and Falco’s lives to be taken from this scene before finding out what happened. If we don’t find out real soon, I think it’s time we organise an angry mob.



As far as flashbacks go, I feel that I might be in the minority here; I’m curious to know what happened in Paradis but for once I don’t mind having to fill in the gaps myself.



I feel like I am the only one who doesn’t care about the SC right now… I’d rather know Falco and Reiner’s fate, about Annie and/or what Zeke is up to honestly



WHO ARE YOU ROOTING FOR IN THIS FINAL SHOWDOWN?

2,279 Responses

Paradis wins with 67.4%, but Isayama has worked hard to build sympathy for the other team. In the course of 12 Marley chapters, it looks like he’s been somewhat successful.



Although I like several of the Marley characters, ultimately I am on Paradis’ side. I hold those characters close to my heart, and would be devastated if any of them die.



I can’t believe how completely Team Warriors I’ve become. The most emotional moment for me in the chapter was when it looked like Porco was going to get killed, and I realized how INVESTED I am in his and all the other Warriors’ fates. Isayama pulled a damn Jaime Lannister on me and got me emotionally invested in the other team!

I hate this, I hate that I sympathize with mostly everyone here, I hate that I know Paradis probably will (and should) win, I hate that babies Zophia and Udo died for no reason, I hate that Eren’s become what he hated, Isayama is personally attacking me.

I just…. want them to survive….. and for them all to live peacefully idk

Paradis 4 lyfe



I like how at this point it’s entirely justifiable to root for either side for the most part, and I feel that is what Isayama is going for.

“Who are you rooting for in the final showdown?“

Me: Why, I can’t possibly choose, they’re all my children, I love them all, I mean–

Me: *Remembers how happy I was when I saw the Jaw titan appear to save the WHT, how disappointed I was when I thought Levi would kill him, the relief when Pieck showed up to save the day, and the giddiness when all three of Marley’s remaining titans rallied together*

Me: *silently clicks Marley*”

I will always be with paradise, just because they are fighting for their lives, Marley is fighting for resources and world domination.



That “"who do you support”“ question really threw me! For me it’s both and neither…. somehow? I think that’s the exciting thing though, because the narrative means we have characters we’re rooting for on both sides (eg Colt Piek and Levi) and those we’d like to see fall (I’ll keep those ones to myself ;)).

It’s so painful how everyone is right from their own point of view yet this compels them to fight each other. Why can’t there be peace? I guess it mightn’t make for very exciting story…



GO TEAM PARADIS

ANY OTHER CHAPTER THOUGHTS YOU’D LIKE TO SHARE?

441 Responses. A link to all responses is here.



The battle between the War Hammer Titan and Eren is one very extreme game of Whack- a - Mole!

Magath this chapter is like a disgruntled wife glaring at her husband because it’s 3am and he was supposed to be home by 12.



Loved the chapter, but it feels like the start of the end and that makes me a bit sad. I’m worried for Levi. I don’t want him to die, but I think narratively speaking he probably will. And I know I’m going to feel just like all the Erwin fans did when he died. Not looking forward to that day.



Next chapter will be Kiyomi looking at the corpse of Udo followed by the scene Kiyomi watching the battle between Marley and Paradis with a smug grin.



I loved the two final pages: the Marley side’s choice of words was based on ”“aggression and death”“ while Paradis’ was about ”“defence and life”“. They are two sides of the same unfortunate coin. It’s always been like this, even though we know that the Warriors did what they did just to survive, and now the SC looks like the aggressor. But they’re still defending themselves at the end of the day. It’s obviously more complex than this, but I liked the subtle contrast of intentions, and how they can be read both ways.



PORCO’S BUBBLE ASS

While I’m happy to see the SC again I really don’t know how they’re going to succeed when literally the whole world is against them. I’m most anticipating how Isayama is going to write their success or failure. And god I hope they win but I don’t know how they’re gonna do it.



Felt like I finally woke up and took a deep breath of fresh air. This past year has been so lackluster, I’m glad the vibe I fell in love with came back.



I will definitely cry at the end of the series. I just know it. And while I’ll be cursing myself for becoming invested in SnK and the fandom, I will also be thanking god for introducing me to my roommate who introduced me to SnK



I REALLY hope Armin has beautiful, super long hair put in a braid. Or, have it just a little longer but not as coconut-like. Also no facial hair. He needs to take back his rightful place as the prettiest girl (boy) of the male cast from Eren.

AS EXPIECKTED OF PIECK SAVING THE DAY LIKE ALWAYS

I’ve always been an anime watcher - but SNKwas the first manga I got into. This is one chapter that gave me chills that I have never gotten before watching the anime, damn!



I’m on Paradis’ side for the war and in general, but Eldians are a huge threat to the rest of the world- Once our titan shifters die, it’ll just pass on, which could lead to worldwide terrorism. I don’t want Paradis to lose, but I don’t want Eldians running too wild as it would have a great threat to the future of humanity.

I’m so happy to see all my 104th kids again but I would give them all up in an instant to see Armin

Levi is finally going to fulfill his promise to Erwin… Or is he? His fans must prepare for the worst imo. And I REALLY hope Reiner and Falco are still alive, they don’t deserve to die like this, especially Reiner. Idk he’s the main antagonist??? Dying like this would be so lame.



Why does mikasa look like a man now? Did she change her gender after realising eren is gay? Sasha totally stole the spotlight!



Really looking forward to see how Paradis’ main cast has changed in terms of their views and relationships (both between themselves and with the rest of the world). It would be interesting if they have drastically changed their main goals, although it doesn’t look like it.

STILLL RIPPP ERWIIINNN

The only person it makes narrative sense for Gabi to kill is Flock. Isayama clearly wants us to sympathize with her, so she may try to kill others, but I sincerely doubt she’ll be able to.



I kinda hope Floch survives the series just to spite 80% of the fandom, lmao. Jk. But… People are honestly not taking the time to understand his perspective. Dude basically lost all of his friends during the suicide charge, thought his sole purpose for survival was to save Erwin, just to find out that even if he died nothing would have changed. He’s still a dick, sort of a terrorist (bombing civilians is never okay), but it’s definitely understandable how a ”“normal”“ person like Floch might become like this. Thank you, this paragraph was brought to you by the Donald Floch Foundation

Seeing Levi made me sad because just like after chapter 84 he is like a totally different person, I miss his sass and attitude but I understand why he changed and it makes perfect sense

Seeing the SC grow up has been crazy. I missed them so much and of course, Levi. Need me some Hanji!



zeke is going to announce that he sexually identifies as ape



When the fighting is done, Mikasa will tell Eren to come home one more time. This time she’ll add the detail, "The kids miss their father…” Erekasa will be made official. Eren will apologize. The war will be over. It’ll flash to Reiner emerging from the rubble, only to see that Falco had died. He’ll have a “should’ve been me” moment. Everyone will then hold hands and sing Kumbaya while Reiner goes off to find an empty house to shoot himself in.



Used to like Floch, but dude is even more douchebag now

WHERE IS REINERRR???!!!1!1! ISAYAMA IT HAS BEEN 1 MONTH HOW CAN YOU LIVE WITH YOURSELF NOT DRAWING YOUR FAV BOY IN EACH CHAPTER?

Wasn’t too fond of some of the twists that were incorporated in the latter half of this chapter, and I felt the pace was too rushed for my liking. But the questions of morality are brilliant and the set-up work that is being done through these Marley chapters is absolutely fantastic, I can’t wait to see how everything is going to fall into place

i really would like to save my judgement on eren’s actions until we know the full story of what happened during the time skip. he’s wrong for killing innocents, i wont deny that, but why? does he have a plan, or is he so jaded that he wants to see the world burn? regardless, it seems that eren has hit a moral even horizon. is this a “you either die a hero or see yourself become the villain” scenario, or is it something else. clearly, gabi is meant to be set up as a parallel to eren, so i wonder where things are gonging with her.



I just have a lot of feeling. Mikasa deserves the world. Protect Eren 2k18! Im glad to see Sasha and Connie. Jean makes ne proud. I hope Levi gets to keep his promise. Give me my brain babes. (Armin&Hanji)



#TeamEren. Desperately hoping they have a solid escape plan.
