Anyway, plot armor isn't a survival mechanism, but there are enough (almost too many) potential survival mechanisms surrounding him, as well as lack of confirmation from anyone credible (Hange, the only one with knowledge of the serum).

There are 5 potential sources of titan juice, as well as the most brilliant titan scientist who just arrived. Hange is the only one there with a good idea of what can be done. I think he deserves a big "unknown" until the Hange speaks.

Also there is no precedent of main characters actually dying, and Armin would be the first. The last one who "died" really didn't die and that was at the very beginning of the story. If anything, Eren's "death" should make us more cautious, no?
