nope i do hope he survives i like reiner although was very disappointing character, entirely understandable, he was bigger, more experienced than Eren and still he was a soldier in his heart, admiring Erwin, realizing Armin found him

and about Bert, it's been interesting how Isayama put him as an unnoticeable character though he may fight better than any shifter we have seen, he can use only half titan form so he doesn't really get exhausted, and he can escape quickly as a human due the big steam clouds (?) so he's kinda a stunt bomb also, easier to kidnaps/kill people in the meantime... i can continue by just thinking how annoying it can be if Bert turns out to be the Mikasa of the titan shifter trio, truth is that he's the colossal and it seems he can't do that much to the corps. problem is, that there's no right moment to do so, or simply when it happens could be too late when Hanji/Erwin and Bert can negotiate about information in trade for Annie and humanity's chances to live... i hope there's more like an exchange of information, or simple negotiation instead of the typical desperate fight

let's think about the corps a bit, they ve allied with a reiss, as dangerous as potentially she is chose to help and of course there's a very little posibility that she wants to become that god titan, Berth is a very different case, the corps perhaps can use him for a moment, for that battle only. of course is madness but wouldn't it be amazingly surprising to ally biggest humanity's enemy?

perhaps when he notices about Reiner's death he drops the homeland/titan side. I truly think Bert chances to offer more than a simple attack that kills most of the soldiers in the next numbers he could also turn the table against the beast titan but idk the armored's death disappointed me a lot, i still expect too much from the colossal's participation hah

and i take my words back, i don't think Ymir could take Historia away from the walls, it's like when she saw Eren's coordinate she realized humanity still have a chance to survive. but idk... maybe ymir has been hiding among the humans

and i have this idea that whatever he decides to do, remain a Commander or just getting his way into the basement... Erwin won't die, he will end turning into a titan because  it's more likely to beast titan plan is turning everyone into a titan, even the people living in the walls. it's just that after this battle the history can't take place within the wall anymore, there's a chance to know what the homeland is, what the hell happened to the rest of humanity, i don't think the titans rule the world, or they haven't found the cure to the biological weap that turns people into titans, and where in the planet is this story located?

Isayama has to take this story away from the walls after this battle.
