It doesn't make much sense, again, Zeke stopping the rumbling seems to contradict earlier events and what we know about the founding titan, along with several other inconsistencies. Eren hasn't spoken a word this whole time, he appears to be sleeping. Way too optimistic for AoT. I agree with the fakeout vibes.

my first thought was how fast it was blowing past all the points of note people were discussing as being issues there weren’t enough time for. I don’t think it was rushed, entirely, but it did go really fast. My second thought was that at first I did not like the “lend me your strength” team of heroes rising to fight moment, but as the rest of the chapter focused on parts beside the fighting, I liked it more. I agree it is probably a fakeout, though I wonder if “will they stop eren” is itself maybe just that. Reframing the context for the stakes would be very on brand.

Eren and Reiner need to have a shirtless fistfight on top of the wreck of the Founding Titan.

I’d be fine with a twist, I’d be fine with this being the unironic path to the end, it’s good stuff either way

No Wave posted:A lot of really important stuff happened.... feels like this should have been more than one chapter. Yeah, the weak part is how quick and easy (and unoriginal) has been the talk with Zeke, as from there they could win. "Oh, but little things make life good!"

strong vibes like 138 is going to be ‘no, _this_ is really how it’s going to go’ followed by 139 epilogue. at least Feb is a short month!

I thought with Ymir being free Zeke was useless like a discarded key to a broken lock. Weird that killing him would end things so suddenly

It would be incredibly lame for that to be the end of Eren. They didn’t confront him or his ideology and prove that his way was wrong, they just fought a big monster. That can’t be the conclusion to this conflict.

If you remove the key, you shut off the car.

I’m going to be very disappointed if Reiner doesn’t plot armor his way out of this.

That chapter ruled and I'm glad it made Yaegerists mad. I'm also glad Levi finally got to keep his promise to Erwin.

That went by fast and I'm a little confused. Zeke is still relevant after we established that Ymir is actually calling the shots? He says you can't leave the paths then just leaves anyway? He had that choice all along? I dunno, I'm going to re-read it in an hour guess and see if it clears up a bit

I feel like something else happened in the paths dimension that we weren't shown. Although I did go reread some old chapters the other night and Armin figures that killing Zeke night stop it 4-5 chapters back.Gibbering posted:I’m going to be very disappointed if Reiner doesn’t plot armor his way out of this.

if you need to kill a pseudo-immortal transdimensional parasite thing, a tactical nuke might just do the trick

I guess the ram horns Titan must be Zeke’s mentor’s beast titan right? I guess Zeke had a mostly human looking beast titan because he had royal blood.

I noticed that Falco titan has a normal human face with a bird helmet I don’t like it.

I found the audio of the exhibition Isayama had for the final chapter and how he thinks it will sound, so I really don't think this is how it ends. For the curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNJ9ft7RCFs This definitely feels like a fakeout to me.

Yeah I thought Falco had a Big Bird mouth instead of a man face.

Could also be that the beast takes the form of an animal you have an affinity for. Zeke had a monkey doll as a kid, who knows what Ksavers favorite animal was.

Only thing I don't understand is the Zeke/Ymir dynamic, which seems like either a disappointing retcon or something we weren't shown yet. Everything else was cool and people totally blew this out of proportion. Eren will be fighting back next chapter and Mikasa's gonna give him the scarf.

If Eren fights back next chapter he'll probably win, if he doesn't fight back I'll be confused about his motives

We still haven't got his whole prospective, after all. And ignoring that seems way too sloppy for Isayama.
