1 Shit!

Eren, you're awake?

Just hang in there a while longer. Everything's fine.

Historia's all right?

Eren, listen to me.

My father has been an ally to all of humanity within the walls,

for many years past and many years to come.

We were clearly mistaken about him.

It's true that he's been a problem for the Scouts,

and his people did kill Pastor Nick...

But he didn't have any other choice.

Everything he's done, he had to do for the sake of humanity.

Historia. Let me explain the rest.

It's coming back to me... Yeah...

The last thing I can remember is those two.

How long has it been?

Captain... Armin... What happened to the Scouts?

What's up with these walls, glowing like that...?

I can't tell if it's day or night...

No, hold on a second...

Haven't I been to this place before?

What's wrong? This is the first time you've come here.

Though, it wouldn't be strange if you recognize it.

What does he mean by that?

F-Father, explain to Eren.

Yes, I intend to.

However, there's something I want to try first.

If we do this, he may remember all on his own.

What... is this?

These aren't things I've seen...

No!

Whose memories are these?!

This key!

Is this...?

It can't be...

Dad?

Well?

Did you remember? Your father's sin...

"Sin"

You're amazing, Historia! Look at how well you can read now!

That's only because you taught me so much!

Hey, we can't have this. You've got a runny nose.

You need to learn to be more ladylike, Historia.

Here, blow.

Ooh!

Good! Very well done!

Hey.

Hmm?

What does being ladylike mean?

Well... I suppose being ladylike means being a lot like this girl right here.

Christa?

Right. You like Christa, too, don't you, Historia?

Yeah.

Christa is always thinking about other people because she's so kind.

You should try to be like Christa, too.

The world is full of pain and suffering,

so you should live in a way to be helpful and loved by everybody.

Okay.

In that case, I wanna be like you.

Huh?

When I grow up, do you think I can be just like you?

Sure!

Whoa!

Sure, sure! That's perfectly fine!

Whoa...

I'm sorry, Historia, but it's time for me to go.

You'll have to forget about me again.

Until we can meet again.

Huh?

Huh? Who was that girl just now?

What's wrong, Historia?

Why?

Why did I forget about that until now?

I was never alone.

That girl was always there for me.

She gave me books... Taught me how to read and write...

And was so kind to me...

How could I forget about her?

You met Frieda?

Frieda?

If it was a young girl with long, black hair...

it was most likely Frieda Reiss.

She was your half-sister.

She must have been worried and came to check up on you occasionally.

If she was erasing your memories, it was all done to protect you.

Huh? Erasing my memories?

Yes, but touching your hand to him seems to have

uncovered those memories again.

Um, Father?

Where is Frieda at now?

I'd like to see and thank her.

If she wasn't there for me, I...

I need to thank her for what she did for me then.

Frieda is no longer in this world.

Huh?

At one time, I had five children.

But my wife and all of my children, Frieda included,

were killed five years ago by his father, Grisha Jaeger.

Grisha was a person with the Power of the Titans.

I do not know who the man was, but...

...his goal was to steal the power the Reiss family possessed.

This power Grisha sought to obtain...

It was the Power of the Titans residing within Frieda.

Frieda's Titan was superior to all other Titans.

You could say her Titan had unsurpassable power.

However... She did not have the experience to properly wield it.

Unable to unleash her true potential,

she was eaten by Grisha and he stole the power.

But that's not all...

He then attacked my entire family.

His rampage sought to eradicate the Reiss family.

He crushed the 14-year-old Dirk and 12-year-old Abel.

He trampled over my wife and 10-year-old Florian still clutched in her arms.

Lastly, he took my eldest son, Ulklin, and squeezed the life out of him.

Miraculously, I was the only one who made it away.

Unbelievable...

That's how she...

Why would he do such a terrible thing?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

What the hell are you guys blabbering about in here?

I hope you know a buncha shit is going down outside.

Kenny? What happened?

The Scouts started a coup d'état and all the regiments changed sides.

Everyone knows the King's a big fake,

and all the big shots ended up getting captured.

Oh yeah, it's a royal shit show.

Only a matter of time till they show up here.

You oughta wrap it up lickety split.

Yes, all right.

Take your Anti-Personnel Control Squad and defend the entrance.

I believe I told you already that

I need you and your crew to leave for the ceremony.

Whoa, now, King. Did I make you mad?

Sorry 'bout that. I'm just so worried about you.

Kenny... I trust you. Go.

So do I, King.

Tsk.

From now on, you'll be digesting everything you eat from the bottom up.

Plus, the only clothes you get to wear start at your knees and below.

Of course, once a week we'll take you outside

and parade you around to the public.

How beautiful...

This may very well be the finest work of art ever conceived.

All those decades I spent envisioning it paid off.

But see, only after you're publicly humiliated

in front of the same people you tyrannized

will this masterpiece be truly complete.

Zachary!

You just wait and see!

The only blood in you is slave blood!

It's nothing like our noble bloodlines!

Soon enough, you'll lose your memory and even forget how to shit!

That one insult of yours is getting pretty stale!

Don't you have anything new?!

This could be bad, Erwin.

All the officials are saying similar things.

It's just as your father speculated.

The Reiss family must be able to alter people's memories as it suits them.

From the sound of it, certain bloodlines,

including theirs, are immune to the effects.

How is that even...?

If Reiss is able to obtain Eren's "Scream,"

this uprising will amount to absolutely nothing.

As proof of that, they're spilling all their secrets with no shame.

As if saying we'll get what's coming to us.

I see...

In other words, we may forget even that fact altogether.

Though, I suppose having them experience torture by the hands of Zachary

is better than nothing in my book.

I don't understand that man.

To think he dedicated so much of his life just so he could do that.

Commander, you knew about him?

Mmm... 'Twas a slip of the tongue.

Indeed...

I suspected Dhalis Zachary had such ambitions.

Unlike you, I'm not very fond of gambling.

And also, unlike you...

...I value the number of remaining humans over my own life.

The reason I backed you was because I believed

it the superior choice for humanity.

Had the government been the favorable choice,

I was prepared to fight against Zachary.

To think, we're comrades just following a coup d'état, and look what I'm saying...

I once heard a song that someday humans will stop fighting, but when will that be?

Commander!

All troops are prepared and ready!

We're ready to go!

Humans will continue to fight one another until the day there's one human or less.

I was hoping for a better answer than some bleak hyperbole.

All troops, fall in!

Our mission to recover Eren and Historia will now commence!

We make for their location, believed to be the chapel on Reiss territory!

Understand?

He's Kenny the Ripper.

If he's there, he'll be our biggest obstacle.

In terms of how much of a threat he is, equate him to me as an enemy.

No... With those weapons of his, he's deadlier than me.

Then he's unbeatable, at least for us...

If we could meet up with the troops...

Absolutely not.

I know, absolutely not!

If we wait until morning, Eren might end up getting eaten!

Though, if what the captain said is true, it's not like he has no weak points.

For real, Armin?

Yeah, I'm sure he's trained plenty, but having combat experience is something else.

I wonder, how is it that you lived with Kenny the Ripper

but know almost nothing about him, Levi?

Sorry, but I only found out his full name not too long ago.

Apparently, it's Kenny Ackermann.

He some relative of yours?

I heard from my parents when they were alive that my dad's side, the Ackermanns,

were persecuted in the cities.

My mom's family was Oriental,

so being a different race meant they didn't fit in anywhere.

Both were people chased deep in the mountains near the edge of the walls,

so that's how they met and married.

But I never found out why the Ackermanns were persecuted.

My dad didn't seem like a different race like my mom was.

Has there ever been a moment

where it's felt like power suddenly awakened inside you?

There has.

Kenny Ackermann had a moment like that, too.

One time, out of nowhere,

he felt an absurd amount of strength surging within him

and he knew exactly what he had to do.

I've felt moments like that, too.

Fess up, Gramps.

You're about to die anyways, right?

Kenny...

Were you out killing more Military Police?

Yeah...

If you're talking about those goons snooping around,

they're in the ground helping the trees grow.

Speaking of branches,

the branch family moved down south around Shiganshina.

But it turns out someone's interfering with their business there, too,

so they're still poor as hell.

What's the big deal?

Didn't the Ackermanns use to be a family of warriors protecting the King?

Now the whole family is on the verge of extinction.

The hell did you do to piss off the King so much?

C'mon, fess up. Wontcha tell your cute grandson?

What cute grandson?

The one who's Kenny the Ripper, terror of the capital?

The Ackermann family isn't hated by the King.

It's just, they're afraid of us.

It's because the King isn't able to control the Ackermann family.

Control?

I personally don't know all there is to know.

But it's true that our family was once the

King's sword and one of their vital supporters.

However, the King passes down the Power of the Titans from generation to generation.

Huh? What's this Power of the Titans?

It's an immense power they possess

to alter all of humanity's memories and make them entirely forget the past.

Except for a few noble bloodlines.

Among them, there were two groups that turned their back on the King.

That is, the Oriental clan and the Ackermann family.

Hence the persecution.

Such a dreadful story.

It ain't the heartwarming story you wanna hear on your deathbed,

but I did find my little sister.

Kuchel's been working at a brothel in the underground.

Got pregnant by one of her customers.

Wants to have it and won't listen to me.

Hell...

Being born in this piece of shit world...

Ain't a single damn dream worth suffering through it.

Found it.

A hidden door.

Eren's gotta be in here with the enemy.

Hopefully the layout in there is like I predicted.

These presents better pay off, considering

we went out of the way to prepare them.

There's seven enemies at the least.

You can be sure Levi's among them.

As you know, Levi got completely ambushed last time

and yet he still killed 12 of our comrades.

The rest of the Interior Police are out of the picture,

not to mention the government lost control.

It's a bad situation all around.

In a world as tiny as ours,

dying would be preferable to the life that awaits us the second we surrender.

Then again, is a life stuck in these walls any different?

We've got an enemy we can't defeat and all we can do is wait

till they break down the walls and destroy us.

We chose to join the Military Police,

aspired to be Interior Police, and joined up with Kenny.

All to seek meaning in our meaningless lives in this meaningless world.

Let's keep believing all the way to the end...

...that Kenny and his dream can turn the tables on this world.

All right, we're good to go!

Are we?

Is everyone ready to get their hands dirty, too?

Guess so.
