But Hange and Armin are both under the delusion that just talking to their enemies is going to end a war with a world that wants nothing more than to wipe Paradis out of existence, even before Eren's rampage in Liberio. Add the fact that she actively suppressed support for Eren and is against the people of her island despite their overwhelming support of having Eren lead them tells me she is unfit to lead. So yeah, little more respect for the Levi thing but overall haven't liked her in a long time.

-From a certain standpoint, many deaths in the series have all been cheap and lazy, particularly when some characters could have had much more use in the story. With Sasha specifically, she only died because Isayama didn't like her (his editor made him spare her, for which makes me glad the editors/powers-that-be have some control over what Isayama does with the story) and would rather focus on a 12 year old psycho war criminal that is literally just a copy and paste of the MC. Sasha aside, however, if a character death/story element causes enough people to literally drop the series, the author is doing something wrong (look no further than Levi fangirls ragequitting even after the leaked spoilers), because no matter how you want to tell your story, keeping your audience should be a writer's top priority.

-PATHS probably will have a role in the final battle, but if it does connect to Ymir being able to revive Titan shifters, why'd she pick Zeke over other candidates?

Its not really Isayama disliked Sasha hell I don't know if that's even the case but Sasha had a role to play and she played her part. I think people drop the story was only because A) they don't how to handle a death of a favorite character and they are just overreacting to the point where they even issue death threats and even burn their manga volumes to the author just because the story didn't go the way of the fans. "Keeping your audience should be the top priority" yeah that's the point of the author, but author shouldn't cater to what fans want or else you just ruin the story entirely because importantly the author should write what she/he wants, not what fans want or how he is dictated to handled the story. And Finally B) you forget that the original death for Sasha was that she was gonna get eaten to death by a Titan, compare to that, getting shot in the gut seems slightly more dignified. Look the point of the whole Gabi-Sasha conundrum is that it is a classic example of how violence begets violence and hatred begets. Gabi is a symptom of the Marleyan brainwashing and Sasha is a causality of that. All of things they had once came crumbling down.
