And there are some who I want to see die. Like Connie. For the life of me, I can't figure out why the hell he's still alive. In the entirety of the series' (current) 85 chapter run, his only crucial role was coming from the Village that Zeke turned into mindless Titans. Other than that, he's basically as pointless Keiji. I remember, I once tried to figure out what possible reason Isayama had for keeping him alive in the manga. The only answer I could think of was comedy, but Sasha's already got that covered on her own... I guess they kind of work well as a comedic duo? Maybe? I like Connie, but I agree... at this point he just seems like dead weight, but yet he gets more time in the spotlight than characters like Floch, who I'd like to see more of.
