Does anyone of you read Shingeki no Kyoujin? If so, be careful of spoilers if you haven't read the latest chapter.

Holy Shit! Plot armour really doesn't exist for anyone other than Eren and Mikasa after all! They burned Armin to a crisp! Armin, one of the three mains! Granted, not nearly as important as Eren or Mikasa, but still a main.

That really caught me by surprise. Looking at his body on the last page, I think he really is dead.

Also I loved it that Eren finished Berthold as a Human rather than as a Titan. Definite thumbs up for that Isayama-sensei.

Though I have to wonder why Eren, throughout this entire battle, never tried to tap into his coordinate power and wrest some of the drone-titans away from the Beast Titan's control to work for them.
