@Anon I don't think Isayama will end the SnK around 20 chapters anymore. He's added way too much to the story now that my prediction is that he will go for at least 25 volumes total. By the way, that he's added and changed doesn't necessarily mean he's milking the series. In fact, everything is falling into place, and I hadn't realized until I read this theory.

As for what things are going right now, he seems not to want his story to be adapted into anime anymore. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone with torture scenes that are so explicit that can't actually be adapted into anime, unless they are heavily altered so the plot is actually changed or switch the genre of said anime towards something more gory.
