Attack on Titan spoilers have arrived earlier than everybody expected. Hajime Isayama's post-apocalyptic masterpiece has now entered its most crucial phase after the Survey Corps found out the truth behind the titan and the world from Dr. Grisha Yeager's journals.
The upcoming chapter of Shingeki no Kyojin will reveal more about power of the progenitor titan, backstory of the Dancing Titan Ymir, and possibly a hint that they are living in an unbreakable time loop from the start.
Here are the top 12 moments of Attack on Titan Chapter 89:The Conference
-The Shingeki no Kyojin pose. Commander Hange Zoe noticed Eren Yeager placing his close fist on his heart, a sign for Shingeki no Kyojin - the titan power acquired by his father from Kruger and subsequently passed down to him.
-Levi Ackerman confirmed Eren and Mikasa were imprisoned for 10 days for disobeying military order. He also gave a light on the current status of the Survey Corps, who have nine members left after the Ape Titan almost wiped out the entire battalion in Shiganshina. By the way, Mikasa lost a lot of weight after spending 10 days in prison.
-Historia Reiss, the ruler of the Wall, received a letter from Ymir just before an inquiry in Trost District. In the letter, she mentioned of Reiner pepping while she's writing. Reiner apparently was the one who delivered the letter to Historia though still unknown means.
-Ymir went on to narrate her story. She was a beggar at first with no memories of her father or mother. Later on, he was adopted by a Priest worshipping the wall. She was given the name Ymir, likely to pay homage for the Progenitor Titan - Ymir Fritz. By having that name alone, people started to worship and treat her like a God.
Ymir admitted he felt good people treating her that way. He was happy to see that people gain happiness by doing so, so she continued to play the part as Ymir.
-When Marley soldiers discovered their activity, the people who worshipped her and the man who adopted her called her a demon. Apparently, Ymir and the worshippers of the wall were executed by becoming a titan. Ymir's letter also mentioned how she acquired the titan power by devouring Marcel. She added that she has no regrets being part of the endless cycle of pain and agony because she keeps moving forward.
-Again, out of 208 Survey Corps members who partook in the mission to regain Shiganshina and Wall Maria, only nine members managed to survive while 199 Survey Corps members were pronounced dead. Commander-in-Chief Darius Zackly said a proper burial will take place to honor the fallen soldiers.
-In the conference, Zackly unveiled the three books written by Dr. Yeager. These are "The Real Name of Grisha Yeager," the Complete History of the Titans, and the Information of the Outer World. Hanje then revealed that the real enemies aren't the titans, but the civilization outside the wall, the world of the Marleys.
-Flashback of Grisha and Kruger's conversation conformed that Eldians used titans as mass murders to invade lands during the Ancient Times. Only the time when an influx of Eldian people started living in the continent, the Marleys were able to counter the Eldian because of the sheer number of Eldian people they have.
The Owl added that Marleys aren't attempting to invade Paradis Island for now, but they are nevertheless expected to make a move soon because of the vast resources of fossil fuel, abundant in the location.
-The Fritz King, the 145th King, decided to flee the continent and build the wall in Paradis. He tried to alter the memory of his people, making them believe that the wall is a paradise. Together, Kruger and Grisha made a pact to retrieve the Progenitor Titan's power from the Coward King and use the Wall Titans to crush the civilization.
-As Hanje explained the truce made by King Fritz, Eren realized that having a connection with someone with Royal Blood allows him to order other titans. It happened when he punched the Smiling Titan, who turned out to be Dina Fritz. With that, Eren believes absorbing someone with Royal Blood will help him handle the progenitor titan's power. However, he is hesitant to tell it to the Survey Corps since he wasn't sure what will Survey Corps do with Historia Reiss once they found out this piece of information.
-Kruger convinced Grisha to start a family inside the wall, stating it's the only way for him to mesh up well with the society. Kruger then he must love everybody around him or else the same story will happen over and over again.
-Before the chapter closes, Kruger drops a bombshell. Kruger to Grisha "Mikasa and Armin, If you want to save them fulfill the mission." Grisha asked who are Mikasa and Armin, but Kruger only had this reply "I don't know, who is the owner of this memory?" Is this an indication of a time loop. They keep fighting an endless battle because everyone is moving in circles just as what Ymir pointed out?
