I don't understand how Eren is supposed to transfer his abilities by being eaten. He was eaten by a Titan in Trost, and then he shifted into his Titan form in the stomach of that beast. Titan died. Maybe they want to drug him or something like that, in order to avoid him shifting again inside of the Titan? There is another flaw, didn't Ymir become a shifter by stealing something from the mysterious homeland of Berthold & co.? (That's why they are after her.) Eating a shifter to acquire shifting abilities would be pointless then. People suggested in the past that Titan shifters have to eat a human to be able to shift back. Maybe Hanji's conclusions are wrong?

Two things: 1.) They lost Erwin. 2.) We still don't know about the relation of Captain Ackermann and Mikasa.
