I don't know about any of you, and the last chapter might change this, but it feels like this chapter was completely unnecessary to the story? If the centipede thing dies after Eren does somehow, then why not just have them both die when Armin transforms. I get that this progresses Mikasa's arc...
I believe that he may have thought he could prevent Sasha's death, which he knew about, and saw in the end that he really was powerless. This may have solidified the role he was to play even more. But that is just speculation.

Why do I keep seeing this everywhere? This is simply not true and entirely made up. I could see an English localization changing her name to Angie because that is just what they do, but the names being similar does not make Angie the intended name. Japanese is entirely phonetic and all the...
I have a feeling a lot of readers are gonna kinda skip over this since a lot happened this chapter... but Pieck's cart titan ability is BADASS.
