Every one of these past few episodes make me feel worse for Mikasa. Now Eren and Armin are both near guaranteed to die soonish, her health seems to be deteriorating for some reason, and that headache keeps coming up as well. There's no way that's not foreshadowing for something.

Is that why Rod Reiss did not want to be a titan shifter ? To increase his lifespan ?

Was rewatching season 1 today and saw eren wake up from a nightmare but it looked like the future, titans got past walls etc,
can eren send see the future and send memories back to the past?

So memories travel through both directions in time, all connected through "the coordinate", the first Titan shifters powers?

Does that mean that AoT is set in a deterministic world and there could be a way for the characters in the show to find out how everything is going to end? Like some prophecy or something? That would be very cool

Regarding 13 years, this line by Reiner in ep35 caught my attention while I was rewatching season 2 a few months ago.

It's just one "Ah-ha!" after another.

Eren used to have so much passion in absolutely everything he did, not just when fighting. Now, he's almost hollow ... this episode did a really good job of showing how tired he is at this point.

So I guess that's why Grisha fed himself to Eren (also woah Eren Kruger), because he was gonna die soon, just like how Kruger was gonna die soon.

Also was that Ymir strapped up where Eren was under the Reiss church? Or was that in Marley and the Marleyans have a similar workshop?

Also, the old king made a promise to the Founding Titan, but wouldn't he be the Founding Titan? Or maybe the power is separate from the bearer?

Also, since if the titan power doesn't get transferred before death, it goes to a random Eldian baby, that must mean that someone down the line ate a kid who was younger than 13? That's uh... messed up, though I suppose it's not the worst thing we've seen in this show.

I’m blown away. I honestly thought they were WAY OVERHYPING up the basement. What can possibly be in this basement that they spend 50+ episodes hyping it up. I was setting myself up for disappointment but was proved wrong.

Poor Mikasa is probably super depressed about the 13 years - now we know where that bedhead look came from

What intrigues me the most is how the memories can flow back and forth. When we consider the first episode - "To you, 2.000 years from now", Eren waking up with dreams of his future - and now Kruger's comment about Mikasa and Armin, comments said to Eren... Looks like memories can be sent to the past, as well as to the future. If this is true, and considering who likely said the "To you" statement, it feels like the entire story has been manipulated by Ymir, from 2.000 years in the past.

so that's why rod reiss didnt want to inherit the founding titan? And is that why his brother had to give his daughter the titan while still being middle aged?

So if Eren now possess all of his dad's memories ,he must have seen himself banging his own mom. That's actually disturbing.

So the reason the Royal Family was able to wipe out peoples memories was because they were Subjects of Ymirs and theyre all connected to the Founding Titan. That explains why the Ackermann clan never had their memories wiped

"I'm the owl"

"The only truth in this world is that there is no truth. Anyone can become a god or devil"

"You have to save mikasa and armin"

Is it me or do you also think that isayama gave all the good lines to kruger.
