According to this source (not sure if it's true, but a Q&A that was answered by the mangaka) that Armin is a girl that is in the best term with Mikasa.
https://twitter.com/KugelschreiberG/status/520129496020566016

Rough translation, sorry if it's not as good as the scanlations.
Q: Which girl in 104 period that is in best term with Mikasa?
A: It's Armin.


Edit:
Marina Inoue, Armin's seiyuu, then replied to this by saying that Armin is a boy, but is ambiguous for Mikasa.

WHAT?! I dropped Shingeki no Kyojin so I could finish it in the next few years or so to marathon it but holy fuck a trap? I might continue this. I want to see how this trap thing gets established, sounds like a comedyfest.

This can't be serious. It must be just a joke from Isayama because he looks like a girl. I'm 99% sure this is a joke.

I initially thought Armin was a girl but he was referred to using male pronouns ... and now you tell me this? The author is just trolling us but one thing is sure, his/her gender is ambiguous. If I remember correctly, he slept in the males' dormitory in one episode so I think he is a boy.

Please stop spreading falsities...

Isayama has trolled this fandom from day one. This is no different. Armin is a man, sleeps in the male dormitory, and has always been referred to as one.

Yeah it's true that she's a girl and it's not really amazing. Even if she's a girl she can still be a good character, so there is no problem about it. At least she's a good girl and she always helps her friends. I'm actually glad that it was confirmed, that way there is no doubts anymore. So now we know Armin is a girl and lets hope fansubbers will never make the mistake again.

^ Isayama was trolling, though.

Mikasa, in the recent manga chapters, said that she "didn't raise Armin to become like this", and since the question was about her preference, I can hear Hajime gg when replying :]

Yea Armin was always on the male side of things. He/she bunked with Eren I think. I wonder if Eren and Mikasa know? I want to see Mikasa get jealous of Armin and go all terminator on "it's" @$$.

But honestly he must be trolling us right? Though this explains to Eren why Armin seemed moody at a certain time every month as well as explaining Armin's odd habit of sitting down on urinals. Sheesh Eren you take the oblivious guy character to a whole new uncomfortable level.

It's really sad how many people don't understand a joke when they see it. Sure the joke is in poor taste, but still a joke.

The joke is because Armin is weak and feminine looking and Mikasa doesn't have any friends at all, so Armin is the only available option when asking who her best female friend is.
