Oh snap, you're right. I was thinking of the scene where he starts to have flashbacks about his father in his titan form and remembered him as saying it rather than writing it.

I thought the story would fizzle after the basement reveal like Twin Peaks but suddenly it was a bigger gently caress Yeah than the Trost arc.

Captain Invictus posted:Remember, up until now the ENTIRE story has taken place on an island the size of(and actually is due to lazy map designing early on) Madagascar. Weird, the whole setting of Adventure Time is apparently set on post-apocalypse Madagascar. I guess It's the go-to large island for dystopian (future?) societies.

net cafe scandal posted:It’s so awesome. Honestly I've been really impressed by the pretty risky/different direction the story has gone in. Usually popular series like this tend to play it safe and become/stay mediocre with popularity, but this has completely changed gears post-basement and it's been totally worth it.

I'm hoping the manga doesn't turn into Paradis vs. The World from this point on. I feel like Marley was forgiven a little too quickly for conquering people using the Eldians and then just kind of brushing it off at the play. The Middle Eastern league and anyone else that was conquered by them using titans should want Marley destroyed. They might want Paradis nuked as well but since time is on their side there's no real reason to go out of their way to finish it off.

Paradis vs. The World seems like a likely premise for most of the rest of this manga, but I'm sure the divisions in the world are going to come into play during that conflict too.

You remember the scene where the 'Asian' delegation parted ways before the big presentation? It could be a clue, maybe Paradise has already made diplomatic contacts behind scenes.

I'm glad Mikasa was able to quickly dispatch the new titan, I was prepared to be upset if it turned out to be some kind of god invincible titan. Hell yeah human power. Really drives home the whole "titans are a thing of the past wars." Still cool that warhammer ended up being like, designed for shifter killing.

Pretty good chapter, but I'd like to see more bodies hit the floor over the next few chapters, Marley, Eldian traitor, and foreigner alike. I predict one of the next few chapters will end with a shot of a huge fuckoff Paradisian invasion fleet about to D-Day this continent. And I kinda hope the Paradisians figured out flamethrowers, so we can watch fire units literally burn these cities (and especially the people in them) to the ground.

She seemed defeated , but maybe not killed.

Why are there three walls? If the founding titan wanted to just create a jail/paradise for Eldians so they would stop all the unnecessary bloodshed, then why did he make three walls? According to Willy (who is probably lying), the FT even said that when the outside world came a knockin' for revenge that he wouldn't do anything about it. If that's the case then just the outermost wall would be needed to coral everyone in and keep enemies out (until enemies were strong enough). But instead they went with a more strategic three-wall option so that they wouldn't be overwhelmed if the outer wall fell. Do you think there will be an actual reason for it or is it more likely just that way because it made everything until the basement possible?

Having 3 walls is symbolic to Ymir's 3 daughters, and more walls means more colossi. The first chapters also had pages that detailed the design of the walls for fending titan attacks (that were a real threat to the Walldians pre-revolution) so more walls meant more feeling of security to the citizens.

Who's going to eat Warhammer? Eren already has the hardening thing and an armored colossal titan seems like it would be too much of an overpowered battle-ending plot macguffin to fit in with the storyline. Does Misaka has the right DNA to use the titan power?

I assume Ackermans cant become titans because they’re titan science byproducts, although I don’t think it’s been confirmed one way or another.

Maybe the Ackermans were the reason the king stopped fighting. The thought of every Eldian having titan powers and immunity to mind control.

When I think about it, night fighting is perfect terrain for 3DMG, because without blue sky to silhouette against, you're nigh impossible to hit or see coming. A lightly armed squad of elites would slaughter regulars. Also it's cool that a titan is using titan-matter to make weapons. One thing they've kept consistent is that titan-matter is spooky, it doesn't have normal values of tensile strength or mass-to-weight. Which is why they couldn't work out a way to equip Eren with weapons, anything man-made would snap under its own weight. Finally, Tybur had it coming. The compact between Fritz and Tybur was that Fritz would section off Eldians in paradise, while Tybur kept the peace in the regions newly liberated from Eldia. This broke down almost immediately, Tybur collaborating with a newly vengeful Marley regime and allowing genocide and ghettoization to occur, led to a radicalization of the Marley regime, culminating in the Paradis expedition. Tybur hosed up. If they had stopped the use of Paradis as as a grotesque execution ground for Eldians, then none of the militarization of Paradis would have occurred.

Turin Turambar posted:Ackermans are not Eldians. I'm not so sure. Titan power comes from the paths that connect all Eldians, and both Levi and Mikasa felt a moment where power came to them suddenly. I think the Ackerman power is drawing energy from the paths without needing a titan soul, and you'd need to be Eldian to be connected to the paths. Would also make sense why Ackermans were persecuted alone when several nobles were immune to memory erasure. The king didn't want titan-power users in his Utopia who could not be controlled.
