Forum:Titan Shifter Science

Shifter Question
I have a lot of questions about shifters.

Such as...

1. Why would Eren bite himself, drawing blood, at the time that the cannon was fired?

2. How does it work, where do Shifters come from?

3. Why couldn't Eren transform in that well, when his goal WAS to transform?

I have a lot more questions, but these are my most burning ones.

Please answer!

1. It was an instinctual reaction to save Armin and Mikasa, with the intention of protecting them by holding them inside his Titan form, otherwise the cannon would have killed them both.

2. It's currently unrevealed, however, the known Shifters originate from what they call "the Homeland" (or Hometown, depending on the translation).

3. If you're referring to the tunnel after Annie transformed, he still couldn't believe she was the Female Titan despite seeing her shift right before his eyes, due to his respect for her. He was also in shock and disbelief prior to her transformation.
