I figured if Eren is sending memories to the past which doesn't affect his timeline, then what is he affecting?
Sorta think that, that timeline would become one exactly the same as Eren's but it isn't a paradox because the information came from a parallel timeline that already existed.
I see what you mean, and I would be more than happy if my theory is wrong and this is actually the case.
Also, this would mean there are parallel timelines in this universe, if not infinite. That sounds interesting but I hope the manga doesn't delve too much into it. Except a what-if Erwin...
Well, Kruger's words are from Eren's memories which in turn came from what Grisha said to Eren which in turn would lead back to what Kruger said if Grisha deliberately reiterated Kruger's words. Hence the paradox.
Well, the story really. If Eren's friendship with Mikasa was a deliberate machination due to Krugers words then that would mean:
Mikasa going to join the military is a paradox. Mikasa's strong skills as soldier that helped save Throst is a paradox. Mikasa helping Levi bringing down the Female...
It was Kruger's quote "Mikasa and Armin... If you want to keep them safe then fulfill your mission".
If Grisha deliberately brought Eren with him to Mikasa's family to get closer to Mikasa and ultimately have Eren befriend her then we have a paradox. After her parents were killed he could had...
I am not happy with the ending, really. It basically means Eren's friendship with Armin and Mikasa as his adopted sister is a huge paradox. Erens motives are a paradox, and this entire manga is a paradox, as much of the story's foundation lies on this main trio of friends.
The zero escape...
Reiner's psyche got shattered and Annie spared Armin and when Marco got silenced they were disturbed by what they did.
To me, it looked like they didn't want to do the things that they did, but had to do them anyway. They were children so I can't see why they would sign up for this.
Maybe their...
I really enjoyed this chapter.
It was quite the infodump though.
What fascinated me though, was the total amount of shifters there were. I just kind of thought there were a lot more, not unlimited, but more.
If I'm counting correctly it should be: Ymir, Armin, Eren(Grisha+Frida) Zeke, Reiner...
My bad. I forgot that detail and just thought it was standard for everyone.
Yeah, perhaps. If Bertholdt wakes up first and decides to spill the beans then maybe they will reconsider their options. Though i'd rather not have the scene stretch on any further. Just get to the basement already...
I'm betting for that Erwin will get the Serum. From a narrative standpoint it makes the most sense to me. Armin seems to have closed his character arc and Erwin lacks his, as his wish to see the basement never really felt like he truly gave up on it. Armin on the other hand made peace with his...
Not Armin. Awww, he was one of my favorite characters.
Out of all the characters I thought would last to the very, Armin was the one I most expected.
I'm excited to see how this will affect the rest of the group, especially Mikasa and Eren.
Though, with Reiner Bertholt and Zeke defeated, I'm...
Yeah, seeing how that the Beast Titan has an important role to the story I doubt he'll be defeated.
Erwin is likely to die without ever seeing all his hard efforts and sacrifices bear fruit, though.
I think that would be a great thing for the story if that happened. It's pretty much been...
I wouldn't think it would be exactly that, but I think he will have amnesia.
Whats the point of coming back from the brink of death after having your entire brain blown to bits, of you're not going to suffer from any repercussions?
I dunno, maybe the guy will come back as a blank slate and it's...
Dang it! I really thought Reiner died there. How do you make conscious decisions from your spine.
But never mind. Bertholdt's personality change caught me off guard, and him saying "I did it!".
Is he being controlled like Frieda was with the first King's will?
If I remember correctly, he said...
I know that Titans shifters rely on their spinal fluid to regenerate but the brain must play a role as well.
When normal Titans are slain, the spinal cord gets separated from the brain stem and Titan stops regenerating.
While it is technically possible to "live" with only a brain stem as it...
