Ymir was obviously very important to Historia but there's never any indication she reciprocated it romantically - to the contrary, it seems she never even realized that Ymir's affection was of that type until she was already gone.

The penultimate page could always be of a group of armed men guarding Eren as they fulfils his last request before being dragged off to the gallows for his crimes.

So we think Eren is somehow going to be allowed to survive after killing hundreds of eldians and millions of non-eldians? Or the last panel is someone else holding the baby?

I mean, one of the running themes of the manga is that the cycle of vengeance needs to stop, even if it means that the guilty sometimes go unpunished.

Reiner literally seeks it and is going to be denied it to the very end

Hell Eren will probably break the curse of Ymir and Reiner will live out his days until he dies of old age at like 92 treated as a war hero

It's an artistic medium, the baby panel doesn't have to be literal. It could be Eren and Eren could also be dead, easily doable in a series with future memories and magic ghost dimensions

Much more fitting for Eren to have to live w his despicable choices and all the friends he's killed than to get off easy via death.

Ok, going for the super far-out theory. Eren dies but is somehow reborn as the baby allowing him another chance at life without the whole genocidey bits.

One of the leakers mentioned the episode titles / chapters for 13/14:

code:
Ep 13  Ch 111 "Children of the Forest"
Ep 14  Ch 113 "Savagery"
This hints towards the big Zeke flashback/episode for 15, and ending episode 16 around 116/117, possibly with Reiner/Marley hotdropping in. 119 would be a stretch at this rate and 122 seems completely out of the question. I'm surprised they haven't announced anything regarding a part 2 yet.

Taking things a little slower is good. Do a ~16 episode part 2.

The manga will end and then the anime will actually have the exact opposite ending. Manga Eren is stopped, Anime Eren successfully genocides the world or vice-versa.

Anime Eren will be stopped when it turns out that the the Power of the Titans is drawn from the energy produced by people dying in an alternate dimension and somehow the paths are used to banish Eren to Germany in the 1920s.

I will confess,
I love this cultured hell that tests my youth.



Eren actually died years ago when Hange roasted him for posing when name-dropping the series. It's why Eren fantasizes about grabbing them by the shirt in the basement jail then about them dying from the heat of the Rumbling; because it's the only way Eren can personally cope with being burnt to a crisp on the spot like that.

Can't say if if it was a mistake but the anime titled this week's episode, which is almost entirely dedicated to ch109 Guides, "Deceiver".

And next week's, which looks like will be dedicated to ch110 Deceiver based on the preview, "Guides".

Are they actually going to make it to the Paths by episode 16?

There's so much more left to cover, we're only going to be at the exploding chair part next episode and now we're at the point where they can't actually skip anything because it's too plot relevant to zoom through. If they keep doing a chapter a episode, they're not even gonna get close.

There is rumor that it will around ch. 116.

The final chapter reveals that the Earth is flat and surrounded by a giant wall of ice, beyond which are two even larger walls of ice surrounded by hordes of even larger Titans.

115 or 116; stretching it you could end on the very beginning of ch117, as Eren marches off the castle to confront Reiner.

I was pondering how someone with a titan power could refuse to pass along their power. Given they die after a certain # of years, presumably they'd have to completely burn the body, but that got me picturing them just dumping it in the ocean... which also made me imagine what would happen if, say, a shark ate that shifter. And well,



this manga was so close to becoming Street Sharks

Thanks for the warning. Next chapter may well be make or break for the series, so I'm going dark on all AOT now so I can read the chapter in its entirety when it's released.

IIRC if a shifter dies without passing on the power it just shows up again in the next baby born to the subjects of Ymir. But there's no rule that says a shark can't be an Eldian AFAIK
