Erwin on the otherhand, while a great strategist, sacrificed a great number of soldiers in order to advance; plus he was content with dying alongside them this time to atone for what he did. Reviving him would've diminished that valour; he lived full life with no regrets.

As for Bertolt: Screw him. He got what was coming to him.

(Also, is it just me or was this chapter a lot shorter than usual?) Now I'm genuinely wondering if Hange could somehow be the one to ensure that more of the new Survey Corps, if she rebuilt it could do what Erwin didn't and make it a force that can see its mission through without senseless sacrifices. Hange's always seemed to have better means of combating the Titans without recklessly risking soldiers than Erwin did.
