Am I the only one who is noticing a pattern here? Eren shows up unexpectedly. He has a cut on his hand which he makes immediately known. He then proceeds to emotionally cripple his most dangerous opponent. This is Reiner in Marlay all over again. Mikasa may not be a threat to Eren, but she can cause trouble for Zeke and the Yeagarists. Eren may be trying to take her out of commission for a comming batte.

I get the impression that Eren believes what he is saying, even though it may not be true. I think Zeke really got in his head and I don't think the war hammer is helping much either.

One question this chapter has left me with regards Kenny and how he unlocked his Ackerman powers. If you need to feel a need to protect something or someone in order too unlock it, then how did Kenny? Kenny is a psychopath. I have a hard time imagining him caring that much.

For that matter, who was Levi''s origional host that he used to unlock his power when he was a kid? Why didn't he follow that person around for the rest of his life like Mikasa and Eren? I doubte he was protecting Kenny because he would know that Kenny wouldn't need his protection.

I kind of get the impression that that information Eren gave about the Ackermans isn't entirely true. We already know from the spinal fluid gas story that we can't trust any info coming from Zeke. He is good at strategic miss direction. Zeke would have learned enough from Reiner and Bert to know that Mikasa is in love with Eren. And the head aches could be a side effect of the Ackerman power. Zeke could have cleverly linked them together to fool Eren. On some level, Eren could feel hurt and be lashing out because he feels that his greatest friendship is a lie and every time she gets a head ache, that is her true self hating him. And thinking that any part of the man that killed his mother survives in his other best friend must give conflicting feelings as well.
