If that solves it, why didn't the First King do that then?

U-DO Burger posted:i don't even know what the actual plan was tbh It seems that Eren went to Marley on his own and caused the Survey Corps to launch an attack/rescue operation to get him back. Perhaps the Survey Corps wasn't interested in such a bold attack, so Eren decided to force the issue. It was apparently his plan to consume at least the Warhammer Titan and possibly other Marley titans, as well as help Zeke secretly defect during the chaos of battle. People are mad at Eren because this battle would never have happened if he hadn't gone AWOL, thus none of these people would be dead. I'm a little alarmed at the mention of a New Eldian Empire. I may end up eating a shoe after all.

They seem sufficiently bloodthirsty. This confirms my theory that Floch is not an aberration. Our heroes are of a dying pacifistic breed. This new generation wants blood and power. Goddamn, how does each new chapter manage to be better than the last. This arc is loving awesome.

Apparently Falco was significantly inspired by Jessie Pinkman and man, I can really see it.U-DO Burger posted:I really like Gabi and Falco Sasha was the best shot they had on their side, which'll matter now that they're using guns more. Her death is also important because it shows that despite all his new coldness, Eren still cares. Also that even Mikasa was crying, when she tended to be indifferent to anyone other than Eren and Armin. Cuntellectual fucked around with this message at 05:32 on May 4, 2018 |

So now the plotline of who will inherit the Armor from Reiner turns into... will these kids who have been training to take on titan powers now eventually switch sides and end up taking on titan powers on the Paradis side? Zeke is probably nearing the end of his titan lifespan, but has an important role to play first with his royal blood... Oh well another month before we get any hints! Also when I think about Eren having like 3-4 titans in him by now and how titan powers are transferred... I wonder if he'd transfer all the titan powers when consumed, and if the only way to transfer them separately now would be to die normally and let them transfer through whatever their random osmosis bullshit mechanism is Tenkaris fucked around with this message at 09:36 on May 4, 2018 |

Do you guys think that Zeke still might be in Liquid Ocelot mode and preparing to betray both Marley and the Eldians? He's the most qualified Big Bad, and not exactly trustworthy. With him on their side, the heroes literally have no opponents even approaching them in power.

I can't see him being the big bad when he's so close to his time limit. what does he have to gain from betraying both sides? siding with the eldians makes sense for him at this point

There could still be some surprises there that produce new threats. Beyond that, I don't imagine all the nations will be excited about this new Titan-heavy player on the field. Remember that the entire reason Marley wanted access to Paradis is for resources to produce better weapons of war. Titans are still pretty powerful at the moment, but they aren't what they used to be and we don't know what kind of technology other nations have.

Our heroes are of a dying pacifistic breed. This new generation wants blood and power. That's what I was expecting out of the Walldians. A reawakened zeal for conquest and revenge after the true nature of their people(and how they fit into this new hostile world) was revealed. We're probably going to see some hosed up poo poo out of our new shocktrooper heroes. I'm guessing all engagements are going to be soft target guerrilla maneuvers unless Walldia has miraculously mobilized a regular army thats just as familiar with the WWI style engagements as any other global player.

Just the fact that they have titans means that they command the attention of the other nations. They don't even need to use them in military battles. They are the perfect terrorist weapons. Having only the giant titan means they have an undetectable reusable weapon of mass destruction.

So...given all that we now know, what were any members of the Ackerman clan doing in Wallmaria? I mean why were any there to begin with? Fritz brought all of the Eldians he could mind-wipe into the walls with him, but why would he include anyone he couldn't wipe? I think the Ackermans weren't part of the original migration but came later. Something that's bothered me is right before the attack in the Eldian ghetto, the Asian representative was leaving the speech flanked by a pair of Kenny cosplayers. I think it was the same representative who showed compassion to the Eldian child who spilled wine on her. I'm sure their country had a hand in the attack, but I can't help but also wonder if they also knew the truth about Wallmaria the entire time and have even directly interfered in some capacity in the past, explaining why there were any Ackermans on the isle at any point in time.

I think the Ackermans weren't part of the original migration but came later. I've seen theories that the Ackermans were created to serve the King and his family. We heard from Marley folks that they were created with "titan science" which could mean basically anything. There are a couple points where Mikasa and Levi try to kill Bert and Reiner and are unable to, and at one point Levi says something along the lines of "is this his power?" when he's unable to kill Reiner, implying that it's not emotional or physical, but something else that's restraining him. It makes me think that while the founding titan can't mind wipe, there's probably some degree of control shifters (specifically the founder) have over Ackermans.

But then why wasn't the King constantly protected by Ackermans at all times? In fact an Ackerman was sent to KILL the actual King (Who the gently caress even hired him and why? Few even knew Fritz was the true King.) and only after that was Kenny called into the King's service. My actual question is what happened on the Island that the Ackermans were present, but not in the capacity of protecting the King, and in fact don't seem to have an agenda to begin with? I think the original intent is that Mikasa's mother knew. Died before passing on the truth. EDIT: Re-read some previous chapters. They were there the whole time and the monarchy pushed them away for purity reasons and the fact they couldn't control them for poo poo. The first generation decided to not pass on the truth to the next, and so here we land at the current situation. Still think the Asian representative was shady as gently caress and the Waldians have a pact with her country. BuhamutZeo fucked around with this message at 21:11 on May 6, 2018 |

JahRoo posted:at one point Levi says something along the lines of "is this his power?" when he's unable to kill Reiner I read that encounter as Levi was being philosophical and his dialogue would be read more as "is fate deadset letting this guy live from certain death scenarios"? And Mikasa not killing Bert and Rein is about not giving 100% killing intent to murder her friends, she even flashbacks at their horrified faces when she ponders this.

Fritz brought all of the Eldians he could mind-wipe into the walls with him, but why would he include anyone he couldn't wipe? I think the Ackermans weren't part of the original migration but came later. The king still needed a few families with memories to form the central military police, suppress technology that would allow travel outside the walls, run the wall cult to prevent people from doing construction on the walls, protect the Founder titan and control the press. All the noble families made a pact to die with the true history, leaving their descendants to live wealthy lives in the center of town. The Ackerman family was persecuted by the other nobles because they have a mystery titan power in addition to mind control immunity, and could pose a threat to the king's paradise if they decided to rebel. And Ackermans would have to be part of the first migration since the Marley were aware of their existence. I'm really excited to see if the Warhammer memories shed any light on the Ackerman's ability. My best guess so far is they can draw power from the "paths" without needing a shifter soul. My wild guess is Carl Fritz's pact with the Founder and the Ackermans are related. Maybe he transferred some "free will portion" of the Founder soul into the first Ackerman and all his descendants get titan-lite powers as a side effect. Building on this, my other really wild guess is Eren could control titans that one time because he touched a royal blood titan and Mikasa was with him.

You've already answered your own question, but I don't think Kenny wasn't sent to kill the King, he attempted to assassinate the King of his own accord, he just got help from someone in the King's inner circle by getting information from them. And whoever it was that informed on the royal family got offed, and Kenny ended up taking his place. Sucks to be that guy. ZepiaEltnamOberon fucked around with this message at 16:30 on May 7, 2018 |
