Just started reading and the first thing it says is "autumn 2020... the asteroids came crushing down towards the earth" and seeing the 2020 so far, guys, it might be coming... XD
What is wrong with you people, he RAPED Chiwoo, traumatized him, beated repeatly and separated from his friends and things he liked only to own him. And you dismiss it bc he's hot and his daddy didn't love him? Seriously?? Most people who went through worse don't end up being rapists and psychos. Even Chiwoo said a few times that he has destroyed his life (trauma that will never pass) and couldn't believe his best friend did it to him. AND SAID HE DOESN'T REGRET IT, even when Chiwoo was crying and begging him while in act to stop!!! He should've served way longer time in prison than he did and get some lifetime psychological therapy for being a horrible human being.
Unfortunately there is very little Eren in the story after where 3rd season of anime is ending; I wish there was more, I love this new genocidal-psychopathic version of him. Also, I am very afraid that the story may end with his death, that Mr Isayama will pull some Code-Geas-Ending-BS... it would really be something if Eren would actually win and after slaughtering everyone outside the Island, the entire world would belong to the titans... the end. Now, he is free. <3
At this point he pretty much has to die probably at the hand of his friends
Oh I hope he'll not make Mikasa do it or smth like this. Anyway, can't imagine 3 titans + those few ppl left killing Eren as Founding-Warhammer-Attack Titan controlling thousands of Collosals. But as I said, I think he's planning to let them kill him and die as our sicidal maniac saving the world by taking all the blame or smth.
I think that’s why he was being such a jerk to them, because he wanted them to turn against him. I mean I just can’t believe that all the sudden he doesn’t care about them
Yea I agree, I bet that is the reason why he is so heartless towards them. After all when he was already so cold he was still able to tell them that they are the most important people for him. That's why I still have a little hope about the ending... because after writing such a complex story and plot twists and everything it would be painful to have such an obvious ending we all see coming. I hope we still have a surprise waiting for us..
it doesn't matter if the ending is obvious as long as it makes sense and emotionally or story-wise satisfying.
There's a major difference between unhappy and bad endings.
Think of Game of Thrones - it was all the rage not too long ago, people hyping it up and loving it and excited for every episode, but the writing kept getting worse. The story /show took a nosedive in quality and ultimately, the ending was a betrayal to a majority of its fans who all went, "NOpe. FUck that. Fuck you!" and now it's practically never talked about anymore. A taboo even.
Also, if you go in another direction, so many series dropped in quality/were ruined because the creator decided to/was made to extend it/drag it out.
Another example is Gravity Falls. Fans had followed the series and were talking about it with each other and collaborating to solve the mysteries, especially the overarching major one, that they actually figured it out. The Original creator and his team didn't want people becoming bored and/or saying the show was too obvious so they staged an outrage of a leak to throw people off. and it worked! There was no need to change the story or throw in plot twists and deviate from the plan because if they did, it would no longer make sense narratively and that is one of the worst outcomes.

Srry this got so long, I guess i had more to say on the topic than i thought.
If i could make a tldr i would but i'ev never been able to summarize anything in my life.
Hope you have a good day! (●'◡'●)ﾉ
Such an interesting and smart response! Not too long at all, when the topic is fascinating I can talk/read for hours. :D
You are right, the quality is way more important than unpredictability, now I feel less worried for the ending, as I think we can count at that one characteristic of it. :)
I haven't seen Gravity Falls, but GoT is a great example of surprise-without-the- quality ending, the worst possible, I suppose. You really helped me to reevaluate my expectations towards the coming chapters, thank you very, very much and enjoy your reading! <3
There is better translation (2 versions) and quality at readsnk site, I highly recommand it, specially the "raw" one. :)
Also, I don't see a reason to think that Eren is a father of Historia's child. I read three translations so far and he just tells her that she should run or fight and she proposes that maybe instead of both she'd just get pregnant.
Also, I am SO GLAD that it's not going to be some obvious code-geass-ending. I love where this is going now. Although it'll be super depressing. But good and hq :)
I know from a spoiler that the author gave in an interview that in the finale there’s a person (possibly Eren or Mikasa) not certain because it's giving it's back and it's holding a baby. So I was desperately hoping for it to be Eren and Mikasa's baby but with this chapter they're scaring me into thinking it could be Eren and Historia's.
If that's true I think it would be something more like Mikasa holding her's and Jean's baby.
personally, if Mikasa doesn't end up with Eren I would've like for her to end up with Levi.
They're cousins??? Wtf
There is nothing says that they are blood related. Being in the same clan-having the same surname doesn't mean that you are related by blood or am I thinking wrong?
No they are not. They belong to the same clan but they are not close related, I mean as far as we know the members of Levi's family all had black hair but Mikasa's dad that was the Ackerman one, was blonde. And they never hint at being blood related even when explaining their past or the Ackerman bloodline
