User blog comment:XGlass Reflection/Ep & Ch Review~ People Die When They're Killed!!/@comment-179280-20130908194225

By the way, I've noticed that everyone in the web has misunderstood the motives Levi had for jettisoning the corpses. It's not because they would slow Titans down or distract them, it was because the weight of the bodies made the carts heavy, therefore slow, and they had to do everything they could to speed things up, so releasing the bodies would increase the horses' running speed significantly.

On the other hand, Mikasa doesn't do much against the Female Titan, and all the slashing she does in Chapter 30 was put at the end of Episode 21, so that's all she does. The anime did animate everything in the manga chapter, with nothing out, and lots of painful filler in-between.

And on Chapter 49... AT LAST!! Two months of wait for some action finally pay off, and what an ending! Hell is gonna break loose on Chapter 50 holy shit. Time for Hannes to shine or to die, but he will surely play an important role on the next chapter.
