I was thinking about the timeline of events on the main continent, and noticed something very interesting.

It was said that Ymir Fritz obtained her Titan powers around 1820 years ago. This was followed by the "80-year long Titan War" which Marley won, forcing King Reiss to retreat to the island of Paradis, where the people lived in peace for 100 years before Wall Maria was breached.

So we have 1820+80+100=2000 years between the origin of Titan powers and Eren's dream about "Mikasa" in Chapter 1. So what if Eren was somehow a reincarnation of someone close to Ymir Fritz? And the "Mikasa" he sees in his dream is really Ymir Fritz?

I can imagine Ymir saying to him, just before she accepted her Titan powers, "See you later, Eren", but couldn't because the Titan power got out of control, and it is only after these 2000 years of conflict that Ymir would get to see Eren again. Hence the name of the first chapter "To You, 2000 Years From Now".
