My thoughts on Chapter 107:

I don't particularly like the idea of Historia becoming a broodmare for a new bunch of royals. The only reason I can tolerate it is because it feels like something she *would* do considering that she's shown an extreme pragmatic streak since the Uprising arc. She was ready to kill Eren until she realized that eating him wouldn't actually save people, and she also was politically savvy enough to tell Erwin to credit the kill of Rod's Titan to her, even if she wasn't the one who actually killed him. Popping out babies to save her country is extreme, but the look on her face while she's pregnant says that she's not doing this to raise a happy family. She's doing this because she believes she has to.

Kiyomi drooling was kinda gross and I think out of character for an ambassador. It looks terrible. I know she's head of the family, but still, you'd think she'd have more self-control in that role and/or she'd shave the presence of mind to send someone more restrained instead.

I'm not sure I like Zeke having been a good guy all along. While it's not that different from what Eren Kruger did on the outside (playing ball with Marley to pretend to be on the same side), he decided on this course of action as a seven-year-old, which I find much less believable. Even if it was a spur of the moment thing he had to live with afterwards, there are a lot of variables that I don't think Zeke could have planned on in order for his plan to work.

For instance, he didn't know Eren would someday get the Founding Titan. He didn't know there would be a loophole around the king's vow (I assume he figured it out from Reiner and Bertolt telling him about Eren punching a Titan, and Zeke guessed that Titan was Dina). So what was he going to do if none of that happened? Zeke's plan only exists because of unusual events that have happened thus far, none of which he could have counted on.
