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.

I kind of get the impression that that information Eren gave about the Ackermans isn't entirely true. Maybe the person unlocking it dying is a thing that 'releases' an Ackermann? I mean, Kenny's personality had to be shaped by something to end up as he was. Maybe he awakened trying to protect his potential host, yet failed to do so, resulting into a mental break - possibly 'a way out' until he finds someone suitable, like Uri, or no one at all (since he hasn't found one till the day he died)?

Also, I find it interesting how this kind of info puts Lost Girls 3 into perspective, Mikasa hearing a voice and facing a masked figure. Could it be the representation of herself being locked against an Ackermann inside her own head?
