- Levi and Zeke surviving. Unfortunately this confirmed that Octorift was right in the last thread, Isayama has no balls when it comes to offing characters that matter. Unfortunately moments like this have completely drained the tension for me as its just weak as it shows that even a regular human like Levi is practically invincible as long as they are a primary character. The one thing I miss from early AOT is the feeling that anyone can bite it but it feels like that hasn't been true since the Female Titan arc as its only gotten progressively worse. The manga is close to the breaking point for me when it comes to its stakes right now and Isayama needs to pull the trigger on someone that matters (Ex. not a character like Pieck as she's the least developed shifter).

Look I get you have your doubts and misgivings but you can't say primary characters won't bite the dust because they are primary characters, what about characters such as Erwin and Ymir? Remember that Levi have the Ackerman genes which are a different type of human, but it doesn't mean he is immortal, plus doesn't it count for something he got his hand blown off and pretty much bloodied and scarred from head to toe? Also I do agree the one characters are the ones at least developed such as Sasha, Petra, and others I could name get one-offed as they are  least developed or not. Not to mention, even the mentality that anyone could die in early AoT is kind of an exaggeration. Yes, a lot of characters died but most were small-time characters that we either didn't know the name of or didn't know for very long.
