Day 178: Still no signs of Titans in the manga.
At least Zoe and Levi showed some badass asskicking to keep me entertained.

I'm not too annoyed but the lack of titans, but I do hope something pretty major happens soon. These aren't fillers, but they feel like fillers. I hope next week the king reveals something big and turns Erwin into a titan and releases him to the rest of the titans or something.

I felt extremely happy and surprised when I saw the abounded building was overflowing with citizens of Trost, I want for all the world to know any sort of central military police they have. I want all of them to be found out, every last one of them.

I find it interesting, I mean the surname of Kenny, he has the same surname of Mikasa.. maybe he's from the same Family as Mikasa -_-

Fillers ? the survey corps are about to get eliminated, the formal commander of it is about to get executed, Eren is in a mortal danger and someone is about to eat him -_- this goes beyond a mere filler, It's the future of the survey corps.

Ok, Erwin is alive for now. For a moment I got scared when I saw Erwin hanged, but I didn't read the baloons yet. As I said in a previous chapter comment, I don't think Erwin will die for now.


I thought exactly the same. Actually when I saw that picture I thought he was already killed before... It is a miracle that he is still alive if we see the manga's political world ( and not to mention Ishiyama's skills as he eliminates his characters with the speed of light...)

I think Erwin will die, even if he weights/weighted a lot. I was already happy to see that he is STILL alive, this chapter exceeded my hopes until now.

Too bad, as he is one my favourite characters with Levi, Hanji, Mikasa, Eren and Pixis. (Still I hope for the best... Maybe Pixis changes his mind and saves him somehow. He still has more power than the remaining SCs.)

^ I think Erwin is about to be hanged, though.

Logically, his conversation with the Fritz cannot happen after being put on the gallows, but before that.

Second, Levi's squad movement and Hanji's advance develop differently in time (by a 24 hours difference). In Levi's timeline, Erwin has finished the conversation with the king (and is about to be hanged), in Hanji's timeline - he is summoned before the king.

Besides, the only useful move Erwin has (in case nobody comes to help), would be to talk to the people, gathered around the gallows, and reveal that the king is fake and an usurper, planning to kill the rightful heiress, Historia Reiss, and create titans inside the human territory by feeding Eren to them. Something within these lines.

A great chapter, with lots of things going on and a nice cliffhanger at the end.

I'm happy Hanji and Füller got their time to shine, and the mention of the minor's story was neat. Mikasa's reaction to the dude Levi was beating up mentionning Captain Ackermann's nickname was a pretty clear indication that she's got no idea who that nigga is, and we can assume Levi intentionally withheld the info from her up until now. We'll most likely get the whole story in the next couple chapters.

I'm also 99% positive Erwin is going to be hanged. He does weigh a lot, but I can't help but feel he's already accomplished all he had to do. He's already passed the torch to other members of the Survey Corps he deemed worthy and reliable enough to carry on his will and finish what he started.

I know a lot of people are disappointed because they want to see more titans (cause let's be honest, they can blame the pacing all we want, what their real problem is is the lack of titans), but I've really been enjoying the direction Isayama's been taking with his story a lot.
The whole political stuff and corruption behind the wall has been handled very well, and despite all the talking I rarely ever got bored (save for a few transitional chapters between chp50 and 55). Anywayz, just to say I'm really really liking this arc.

This could also mean that his known role as the Commander of the Scouting Legion is finished, but doesn't mean he can't adopt another role further in the manga. So, why kill him.

Certainly, hanging on the gallows is one of the options he expected ever since the forest with the giant trees and Stohess, and if Eren proves to be not the trump card he has hoped him to be for the humankind area, then it all sums up to his situation in this chapter. I don't know what he could have possibly accomplished in the mean time, apparently took some beating and torture and ..., but by all means he was prepared. And he needs the audience for what is to come.

Seeing him with his only hand tied up, it feels awful and ridiculous! Some kingdoms got revolutions for less!

The manga has quickly turned from a fight against giant naked people to a crappy political game. I can't tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

It's not really filler. It's already been establish since very early on in the series that this arc would have come sooner or later, this whole government thing is an important plot element that Isayama have to get to regardless. You gotta be shitting on me if you didn't see this coming from miles away when they started talking about government banning people knowing anything about the outside world, how humanity never united to begin with, how civilians are always kept in the dark about everything and how fk-up social systems they have (rich people living in the inner-most, poor people in the outer wall, sending innocent refugees to combat against the titans to take back wall maria as a shit excuse to preserve more food for the riches). Honestly, given the popularity of the series, the author could have give into the hype and keep on doing titans vs human killing over and over again to please the fan (since that's what most people want -.-) but he didn't do that and i respect that. In terms of evaluating the story, there will be lot of plot hole if this government thing issue didn't get addressed (why didn't they use balloon, why didn't they built an underground city, why did the miner disappeared when they tried to dug underground, etc.). If SNK was just a stupid plot about humans vs creatures non-stop crap, then i would have dropped everything altogether (Take a look at Terraformars please). IT's only been 10 chapters and everyone is screaming like it's been going on for years. :/ It's funny how people are bitching about nothing happened again yet in that one whole fking chapter dedicated to armor titan vs eren fight, people seem to responded positively.


You're completely right. It baffles me to read all this complaining and bitching all over the net that the last 10 chapters have been a "boring filler". It feels slow only because it's a monthly manga. Seems some people really do lack basic comprehension what this series is about. I personally find this way more interesting then just titan slaughtering.

You'll see when all this comes alive in season 2. NOBODY will complain then....

To the people who are complaining that there is too much talking and politics in the series now, if you didn't expect this to happen then you clearly weren't thinking about it enough. From the beginning, there were things that didn't add up about the SnK world, from the construction of the walls to the mention of a monarchy without ever actually showing the king, and of course to the whole corrupted system to where the best soldiers were sent inside Wall Sina, where they didn't even have to fight titans. The fact that the military police were lazy and corrupt in general was another hint, as well as the disapproval of the survey corps while people tried to maintain a false sense of prosperity, even as they sent people outside to intentionally thin out the population. While, yes, the series was originally action-oriented, it literally wouldn't make sense for there NOT to be any politics involved. It was obvious that the society that humankind created for themselves was far from perfect with clear evidence of corruption beneath the surface. Honestly, fighting between humans was inevitable from the start, and if there were no politics involved, the series would truly feel incomplete and illogical.

Okay, that's my little rant on that. I apologize.
Anyway, I really enjoyed this chapter. It was great to see Hanji kicking ass and getting to convince more people of the MP's corruption. I'm worried for Erwin and think that it could go either way--while he is still very important to the story, if he were killed, it could become Hanji's responsibility to understand and decipher what his plans were and to try to put them into motion. Also, she is clearly a very capable commander and I have no doubt that she would be able to lead the survey corps just as well as Erwin did.

His is the nature of a monthly series. This IS the story whereas the previous arcs consisted of mainly action, the author thinks very far ahead to plan his twists as shown with the armored and colossal Titan stories... Just get used to it, see you in a few months!

http://www.mangareader.net/shingeki-no-kyojin/60/35 ----- you were saying

Hm that's easy - They come from the inner cities. to them this place looks abandoned, because it is a dump, so they are surprised to see people still living in it. It is a town, they just don't think it has as many people there as it did.
That being said I agree with some of your points. With the whole - Hanji enters to hear just the right part of the conversation thing. But it must be like that in order to move the plot faster. Do you really wanna spend time on seeing how and were exactly she sneaks? I know I don't. :D It's like that in every movie so... You are kind of nitpicking, as if searching for reasons not to like the chapter. (Makes me wonder why you even read it, but it's your business. :) )
As Flegel being 15 and a president of a company... It is a little lame, but then again we have 16 year olds who are in the army and fight titans, and 34 year old guy who looks 13... Watching anime, I got used to such things.
Plus Flegel might end up being just the "Face" of the company, or his young age might turn out to be a problem later on - we don't know. He might be wunderkind, he might fail completely... for all we know he could be a lover of the king or something :D Nothing is certain.
Killing characters just for the shock of it is something I'm not a fan of, but to each their own I suppose.
As much as you want - for whatever your reason is - Levi, Mikasa or Armin to die, it will not happen soon, if ever. I think that's painfully obvious - they are important plot tools. And Sasha, Connie and Jean are way too liked (So is Levi) to be offed soon. Fan shield - tougher than a plot shield! :D

Erwin on the other hand... I think his relevance is fading, he already gave his position to Hanji, and the way I see it, he is one epic action seen and important deed away from being offed. I think his death would give the Scouting legion a more personal reason to fight rather than the more political, as it is now. As much as I like Erwin and his psychopath-like choices I see a major death flag on his ass. And I am sure it will be a glorious death at that.
I think it would be epic and tragic if the and up turning Erwin into one of the mindless titans, so the corps have to kill him or Hanji has to keep him locked somehow. But that whole thing is very unlikely.

I liked the chapter, mostly. We are about to know if the fan shippers of LeviXMikasa will have to get used to Incest or not. :D (I don't really think they are related) he sure knew he had SOME connection with her since he knows her surname and that they share it. One of the things I like about Levi the most is that he is either very nice or astoundingly crazy/vile, so I won't be surprised if he knew something all along, though I doubt it.
It will be a Troll if it turns out it is just a common surname, don't you think? :D

I hope Magenero will not be right that the journalist are only Deus Ex Machina (Though I see why he might think so) and that we will see them being more connected to the plot later on. I can imagine the older one sticking with the monarch out of fear and the young guy writing the truth while he ends up killed or makes a change... or both. Controlling the media is crucial in a big political game, so I liked that Isayama put this aspect of things in the manga. I will just believe he knows what he is doing.

What I wonder is why the titans are not attacking now? The kingdom is in chaos, they think Annie is tortured, what are they waiting for? Are they on cooldown or something? - I will not say I miss the titan action that much, since we have the epic 3D gear with guns. I am fine with it. I just wonder...
It was clear from the start, when Pixis and random fat VIP played chess, that there will be some human drama going on later in the series. And to me it's going on well, but the longer it takes the more legitimate this question becomes: Where the fuck are the titans? Did I miss something? Did they go on vacation? Is Eren being brought to them now, so they don't need to attack again?

Btw I have a strange feeling this whole revolution think will not end up as any of the sides are planing, but we'll wait and see.

Thanks god for the faster pacing!

An Okay chapter - a little in between things, but I liked it.

I'm not sure R+B+Y knows that the kingdom is currently in chaos. True that tortured Annie should've added up to their motivation, but thing is, Eren's got the Titan God power now. And that's the only thing they know from their last fight. They didn't know he was kidnapped by the Reiss, right? If I were them, I'd try to strategize first rather than risk having all titans outside the walls hurling at me under Eren's command.

Aaah I also wonder... who knows where they are right now. Maybe reporting to the Ape Titan? Connecting to Ymir People? Lol I don't understand who's the bad guy now, at all.

Sitting on the face of someone who betrayed you must be damn satisfying.

Hange was pretty badass. But shouldn't she have been a bit dizzy, having been shot right next to the ear? That something to break your ear-drum.

Levi is the best at interrogation. Dude is being annoying as fuck, just put your foot in his mouth. I also doubt the people are approaching them are enemies. They wouldn't have done a flashback of one day earlier showing Hange success otherwise.

Another Ackerman?! Could they have had any connection to each other at all? If so, prowess in combat runs in their blood.

Hange is a full-on Splinter Cell elite, sneaking up like that and ambushing those MPs :o She didn't even flinch from having an old high-power rifle blast right next to her!

Seeing those villagers emerge from the building was a great reveal! Lol at Flegel sitting on that fool xD Hange used Death Stare at Roy-san... Was it effective?!

Erwin, NO! You won't have your last words yet! There's still so much to do for humanity... Fuck the government lel.
