Ahahahaha!  http://www.mangareader.net/shingeki-no-kyojin/12/17 This is sooooo much funnier for the fact that this manga is so dark and serious most of the time, so it comes completely unexpected.

Wow. Probably one of the best chapters we've had. The art gave an extremely strong sense of space and you could really feel how things fit together in every scene. The torch scene was great. Relieving but confusing when the two groups meet up. Really nicely written.

Why do our predictions have to be right about the worst things? And now we have even more evidence against Ymir! And Connie is going to go insane if he finds out the truth.

Yeah this chapter basically confirmed the Reiner/Ryner being a Titan suspicion, since we already knew Ymir was involved. Chances are there's 3 factions: Humankind, whoever the furry titan is involved with, and the human titan group that includes Annie/Reiner/Bertholdt and probably has something to do with the church.

Chapter was great. The author is getting much better at drawing as well so the problem with weird proportions at distances seems to be almost none existent now. Its becoming more apparent that there was a time where technology was at a higher level. I wonder how far things will go. If the decline was sudden or by stages Also started to think about the factions. The bigfoot titan and his crew can walk around at night. While the other titans cant. This makes me think that their titans are more complete, or even original/"natural" titans. That the ones that are light dependent were at one point man made and incomplete. Still too early to make a clear picture on this mystery.

Lots of distrust of the human characters on top of the usual tension from death looming around every corner. And the scout guy and Mikasa riding in to set up an action packed next chapter was the icing on the cake

cooldude2.0 posted:Maybe, probably, he might not want Connie worrying about his new titan family or he may just not understand what's going on. Then again, there's not a single panel where he isn't suspicious. Whatever the case, he's clearly not on the same side as Ymir Ymir and Christa were specifically stated to have "broken away" from the church(and presumably the same group Annie, Reiner and Bertholdt belong to, as seen by the Church guy's reaction to Annie's rampage in the innermost wall), so of course she's not on the same side. But the side definitely exists and Reiner clearly knows what's up with Ymir and Christa, considering he's asking them to keep Connie from thinking too hard about the truth.

The crazy scientist girl is one of the earlier examples. I thought Ymir was a guy as well, mostly because of the name and some rough facial characteristics. I was caught be surprise with Conny called her a woman and only noticed her breast when she was kneeling looking for food.

I didn't notice Ymir until this thread pointed out the connection with the titan that mistook the random scout girl for her. Which kind of hinted that Ymir was a girl, you know?

I was also surprised that Ymir was a girl. It's probably her mannerism that made me think otherwise. Anywho, this was a terrific chapter.

I still have a feeling that Ymir is a red herring.  If titans are indeed mutated humans, then it's likely that Annie and Erin are perfected versions of titans. Or not, and we've yet to discover what a supertitan is, which is probably the Sasquatch titan.Also, the scene with Connie probably confirms the titan who mistook the woman for Ymir was once a wall worshipper, and that Ymir is somehow more important than Christa. Edit: How could you mistake Ymir as a boy? That's probably the most shocking thing this chapter.

That one was actually in there a few chapters back when the hairy titan first appeared, though. Actually, now that I think about it, the really weird looking one with the huge eyes got killed in that chapter but suddenly showed up again in this one. I can't tell if that's a mistake or intentional foreshadowing of some sort.

It's possible that the ones in charge still teach the old language, but I'm thinking Ymir is just hundreds of years old, like a titan in human form

Hey did anyone catch the name of the castle? Utgard? hmmm that sounds norse like what with ymir and all i wonder what it is? wiki bomb http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9Atgar%C3%B0ar In Norse mythology, Útgarðar (literal meaning: "Outyards"; plural of Útgarðr; the word can be anglicized to Utgard, Utgardar and in other ways) surrounded a stronghold of the giants. They are associated with Útgarða-Loki, a great and devious giant featured in one of the myths concerning Thor and the other Loki who compete in rigged competitions held in the Outyards. In another version of Norse mythology, Utgard is thought to be the final of the three worlds connected to Yggdrasil being the home of the demons, the other two being Asgard and Midgard. There are three layers of walls right?  Zasze fucked around with this message at 20:30 on Oct 11, 2012 |

Man, the last few chapters ever since the conclusion of the Annie fight has been build-ups. Where are Mikasa, Eren and Armin at this point in the story? I find it hard to keep track of all the characters' location in city even with all the maps for some reason.

The are very close to Castle Utgard, the same place where all those giants, Ymir, Christa, Reiner, and Connie are. I can't wait until the next couple chapters come out, because we are getting a lot of clues/answers and that means even more mysteries will be learned. That, or Christa will die before we get any answers from her

I was surprised at the canned herring, too. Wasn't canned food invented in the early 1800s? Even 21st century canned food goes bad after 5-10 years, so someone's gotta still be making it. These people have gas powered jetpacks and steel boxcutter swords, so not everything's at the middle ages carts-and-castles level that things appear to be at first glance. drat I love this series so much.  And I still wish they'd use tripwires to kill those big bastards. It's already been established that non-aberrant giants are usually dumb enough to walk into obvious traps, so (unless I'm missing something) building narrow passageways and stringing rope or wire across them and then having nearby attack teams to hack at the necks of the giants that fall over would seem like a better solution than aiming cannons from atop the walls and hoping to take out the small vulnerable portion just below their heads.
