Honestly, she looked more quiet these last chapters, being torn between her comrades who blamed eren and her own perspective and feelings (not the romantic way, the unclear what is but not the romantic way) towards him. Am I wrong? Before timeskip, Mikasa was inclined to protect and defend Eren at all costs since she's indebted to him because Eren saved her life and has considered the only remaining 'family' left (her parents and foster parents died).

Timeskip happened and Eren has 'changed', she's confused on his actions lately (attacked Marley and killed civilians) and her loyalty to defend him (to Connie) is slowly diminishing. Not the usual old Mikasa where she will go rampant (to Levi or anyone else) just to defend Eren. Agreed. If you'll pay attention to the flashback, you'll notice that Eren's eyes are obscured, making him appear dark and almost evil-looking. I think it's a sign that she's becoming disillusioned by him. She's grimacing in the present, because she knows some of his recent actions cannot be defended and he seems to have changed from the boy that saved her life. I see.

So it's like watching a brother or sister growing up, becoming someone else you don't recognize anymore, doing something you can't even differ whether it is right or wrong, and in the end you don't know what to do. Hence, above all, I love this character development.
