#mindless titans

Maybe because she was mindless for a lot longer than the rest? Cause most shifters don’t spend more than a minute in their mindless forms...

And perhaps she saw PATHS in the same way that predecessor saw them, the one Kruger was referencing. It could be that on rare occasions, some SoY's consciousness is transported there during their “rebirth” (while usually, they’re not aware of it). And that could be linked to the theme of wishes.

I did not initially plan on pointing this out because I thought I was the only one who noticed this. (Cause I don’t want to look stupid :/ )But after @simibraun also pointed it out, I think others may have noticed too.

Falco’s titan shooked us all with how ugly it was, especially considering how pure and beautiful he was in his human form. But Isayama seems to draw everything for a reason, including small details.

Falco’s titan form is odd to say the least. But upon looking upon him again, I noticed that Falco has some resemblance to a newly hatched bird.

The way his face and mouth are shaped, look almost like a beak. His nose extends into his mouth, creating the beak like shape. Further he also lacks a definable jaw. Also the nose on Falco’s titan is curved like a beak, this would make little sense, as in his human form Falco does not have a bent nose like that. Its the opposite actually. So Isayama must have changed the shape of his nose just to accomodate for Falco’s bird like titan.

Falco also has a very fragile and thin, but long neck, as is common with baby birds. Further his arms and hands are very small and thin in comparison to his body.

Falco as a trained warrior had a stronger, but thinner build in his human form, and no visible potbelly. Yet his titan form has it, just like any young bird.

It seems very likely that Isayama modled Falco’s titan after a baby bird. Which would make sense considering Falco is short for Falcon. Other than that, Falcon’s also seem to be a spirt animal of sorts to Falco. After all, Falco and a Falco is the first things we are introduced to in the Marley arc.

You know, one thing that I've never understood is why exactly Annie killed the two Titans that were captured in season 1 of AoT. I'm up to date in the manga, so unless I completely forgot the answer, it's always been an unanswered question. Sure, the obvious answer is that she didn't want the Survey Core to discover more information on titans.

We know that titan shifters reside in the nape of a titan, and the nape is of course their weak spot. So, is it possible that Annie killed them, because she doesn't want the Scouts to discover that MAYBE, a person can be extracted from the nape of a mindless titan?

Ymir remembered her dreadful 60 years as a mindless titan, so is it possible that many answers may be answered via the trapped souls within the mindless titans? Remember that the blonde woman who was turned into a titan just seconds before Ymir suffered the same fate? When she was a titan, she thought that Ilse was Ymir, resulting in the titan showing intelligence. So in a sense, her human form momentarily "woke up" from the mindless titan nightmare. Hoping that by killing poor Ilse(thought to be Ymir) would turn her back into a human.

Who knows, maybe Annie will spill the beans when she fucking finally eventually comes out of her crystalized state.

If this turns out to be the case, then OH MY GOD!

The Marley Succession chamber is exactly as I imagined it. Dull, grey and dead. Completely devoid of life and beauty.

Its so simplistic and it is also clear that this is a man-made chamber, unlike the one belinging to the royal family.

The royal succession chamber feels so grand, beautiful and honourable. A marvel made of titan crystal with a grand stairway.

Either way, mindless Titans means Eldians being turned into man-eating monsters for eternity, so I’m having trouble understanding why Eldians would be okay with turning a great number of their own people into that (since they believed they’re so superior and all that, unless they think it’s an honour to become a Titan forever or something). 

I was looking at these shots again, and I’m not so sure this is actually the ocean...? It looks like they’re rising out of the hard ground, just like Ymir (104th) did after she buried herself and woke up years later.
