It is nice to see more of Shouko's introspection, but finally. Finally. Finally. Ishida, you had us waiting.

I love the ending line for some reason. W-what is the miracle on the bridge (橋の上の奇跡)? Happy ending yay!

Not much dialogue in this chapter but more of a built-up I guess. I predict they might meet up by the end of next chapter most likely on a bridge (based on the title).

This is starting to take the Aku no Hana route where there are long chapters of nothing but art.

At least it left off in a good note. Can't wait wait.

It did kinda feel like a filler chapter but at least next chapter seems promising enough.

If I had to guess... (and this is pure speculation)

But we'll find out soon enough... No, wait. That's wrong... It won't be nearly soon enough, because I want it NOW!

it was intentionally done by the translators or accidentally done by them either way it should've been her name normally spoken. although given that it's actually translated by crunchyroll I would say it was an accident.

Let me hug you, Shouko.

7.5/10 for this chap.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

Silence chapter, no words but full of meanings.

No words can express how Shouko feel, but by looking at her face, we can see how she really feel.

Sorry Ueno he chose Shouko, while you're with him. Finally, he wokes up!!

Don't want this Manga to end T^T 1 Volume left.

Was there any dialogue here that takes place in the present except for Shoya shouting out "Cho-ko!" though? Not that I'm complaining.

I think what's happening is that Shoko is finally processing her "grief". She's been so down and I think just feeling plain chaos that she hasn't had time to process her "grief" and sadness, and that's what she's doing at the bridge, crying, screaming. Seeing Shoko cry really is painful and sad. Especially the page where Ishida says "You forgot this". Shoko's face as she is about to tear up and cry again is just so painful to see. I don't want her to suffer, to feel pain, to be so sad and down and depressed.

Shoya is awake! HE'S AWAKE! And the first thing that comes to his mind is Shoko. Damn. He's probably worried that she's still suicidal. I love Shoya for that.

Not much to say about this chapter since it was mostly building up and also because there's little dialogue here. Can't wait to read again!

Also: sometimes Shoko is just the spitting image of her mother, except slightly kinder.
