First off, RIP Ymir. The moment we saw Jaws, I figured she was a gonner. That being said we are definitely missing one of the Marley-controlled Titans.

They captured 7 of the 9 powers, so that means that the Founding Titan and the Attack Titan were the two they didn't control. The Ackerman, "Titan-science", theory is totally wrong - there have been 9 Titan shifters since Ymir.

There were two really big twists in this chapter:

1) Zeke's secret. The smart money says it has something to do with his royal lineage. Why hasn't he told the Marley government? Probably because he realizes how much control they would exert on him if they found out. No doubt he would end up in a breeding program and the rest of the Eldians in Marley would end up only as Pure Titan attacks. He must have a secret agenda and is playing a massively long game. I'm still trying to work out what it could be...and why he would still despise Grisha (thinking back to all the dialogue we've seen from him.

2) Titan Science. So are the Ackerman's are hybrids? Or an attempt to use the power in the Titan Spinal Fluid in a different way? I noticed in the second season of the anime that the tranformations of the shifters now visually look similar to the awakening that Mikasa expereience when Eren tells her to fight. That "awakening" that Levi spoke of...has to have some connection to the power of the Titans. What would this mean if Levi or Mikasa were to assume one of the 9 titans? So imba.
