This was a really good chapter. :O  Not just for all the moving parts, but just from an art perspective I really liked a lot of the panels. I kept jumping around around thinking "Oh, I want to put this one on the wiki!  And this one!  And this one!  Oh no that's too many!"

Some of them weren't any good for the chapter summary, like Bertolt's sleeping position, but I'm glad we finally got to see one of his poses drawn by Isayama. (The silly thing is I actually like that position.  Never slept like that, but certainly have done it before while lying on the floor for some reason or another.)

It was nice seeing Kenny again, and I thought it was funny how he talking about Annie hitting her rebellious years and doesn't she want to spend time with her dad. If Kenny has any illegitimate daughters out there, I hope they all try to kick their dad to death, because someone like Annie is what Kenny should have in a daughter. xD

Is it my imagination, or does everyone in the 104th seem a bit smaller than they did before? It's the year 850 in the flashback, so it's right before the Trost battle is going to happen, but they look tiny, closer to how Gabi and co are being drawn now. I guess it's to contrast with their older selves post-time skip and of course the art style has changed, but they seem a lot younger than they were during say Uprising or Return to Shiganshina, and which are only months away. (I like Floch yelling at Jean and Eren to keep it down in the morning.)

I'm a bit annoyed that the amputated man seems to be Eren, but maybe he's changed a lot over the years. Fifteen-year-old Eren could never stay calm enough to maneuver through enemy territory in disguise. And he definitely wouldn't have picked up Falco crushing on a girl. Remember four years ago he couldn't figure out why Hitch would have been upset at Marlowe for joining the Survey Corps. He just didn't "get" relationships.

When I was reading his dialogue, it didn't feel like Eren until the end, when he talked about moving forward because that's something only he'd know since he'd seen memories of Kruger and his father. Until then he just sounded like a different person to me. But once we know he's going by Kruger, that pretty much gives it away.
