I did like the memory fragments in the beginning though, especially since I couldn't identify a couple (who's the kid in the fez on page 10?). Seeing that Eren had dropped the baseball Zeke tossed him was a nice touch, and I liked seeing an Eren Kruger POV flashback. I assume everything is just getting turned into one big paths muddle.

I also like the idea that Ymir was just a girl who stumbled into incredible power, but I don't like the idea that Ymir (or the one in the coordinate) is simply a slave to anyone else with royal blood. It doesn't make sense that she be beholden to her descendants in such a way. (And why does she appear as a young girl rather than the age she was when she died?)

The traveling through Grisha's memories was unexpected, but I like that he took Kruger's words to heart and truly found love within the Walls. The fact he found the Reiss family's hideout beneath the chapel and didn't act on it for years speaks volumes about how his priorities changed. If the Warriors hadn't attacked that day he might never have taken the Founding Titan. He only went there as a last resort to try and save his family.

I also enjoyed the basement scene where he has the photo of his first family out and reveals that he's never forgotten Zeke. It's a side of his father that Zeke never got to see, the Grisha who regretted trying to turn his son into a weapon. I also noticed in one of the memory fragments of Eren that there was a image of long haired Historia which was never shown in the manga before. So this may prove the theory that Eren is the father of Historia's child?
