I agree, Isayama kind of messed up here. He should have given fans some hope that Armin might survive back in chapter 82, instead of making it seem like he just performed his final, heroic act, then bringing him back to life just as everyone had come to terms with his death.

All the narrative about Armin sacrificing himself to allow Eren to see the ocean in his place now seems rather hollow and pointless.
