Armin lives and is now ready to fight alongside Eren as badass Titan Shifters (Mikasa is most likely next so all three can duke it out in the climax), Erwin dies like he wanted to in service of humanity, and the Colossal Titan will never again breach a wall. That would be awesome if Mikasa were the next to become a Titan (Not that she needs it yet, lol).

Given what the Homeland has pulled, odds are they aren't out of tricks to pull against the people within the Walls. However, the most powerful of their Shifters is now definitely dead which may at least buy the people some time to mount a truly effective offensive against the Homeland once they figure out what its nature is. If nothing else, it buys them some precious time to find out who the real enemy behind this Titan nightmare is.
