Oh so the suit with the knife is named "Captain Ackerman"? I was confused for a moment; I mistook him for Historia's father, but I guess I could check the chapter again and discover that it was a different person all along. Gotta love ADD. Not.

This chapter was pretty good. From my perspective it shed some new details about how the government is operating....plus it seems like there is an omniscient group in the government that seems to know all and see all, and maybe this group even decides who becomes king or queen. Could they be tied to the Wall Cult? Then again that's my speculation, that the Wall Cult are the true holders of power, advising those in positions of power on how to go about their businesses.

Despite the lack of titans in this chapter, as has been for about half a dozen chapters now, I think we can expect some interesting stuff happening in the near future, hopefully next month. I look forward to seeing what this "Anti-Personnel" unit is all about. I wouldn't be surprised if their equipment is more advanced than the Recon Corps'. I can't tell how advanced theirs would be, but if their gear ends up appearing modern or futuristic, I might be shocked....like, say, the Scouting Legion and the rest of the military are using archaic equipment, yet the AP unit would be using stuff such as automatic-rifles, grenades, rocket-launchers, the type of weaponry we see in contemporary real-life. As silly as it would appear to me, at the same time it would be a wicked display of polar opposites. Obviously the AP unit would have access to these weapons since, despite repressing mass technological advancement, they'd keep it for themselves, likely for their own reasons such as what's about to happen.

Oh, and about Captain Ackerman resembling the Ape Titan?.....eh, I kind of see a resemblance. I wouldn't be surprised if anyone in the Church (Wall Cult, I mean) had such power, thus personnel operating in the AP unit would have such powers too (assuming the Anti-Personnel group has ties to the Wall Cult).
