User blog:Speculation no Kyojin/Episode 25 - The Titan in the wall

A theory I had come up with and worked on with a friend of mine was about the titan/s in the wall showed on the last episode.

We came up with the idea that maybe the titan/s in the wall had built the walls to help humanity, and could be titan shifters. The story of the digger showed us that the walls were originally a lot larger than thought. The strength of titan shifters seems to differ greatly from normal titans, and the titan showed in the wall seemed to have a very similar appearance to the Colossal Titan. With their size, it seems completely plausable the titan shifters built such large structures. The titan didn't move when revealed, so it could be in a dormant state of some sort. It could be that there is a human inside there too, living, but in sleep.

Another thought we had was that they could have either agreed to be kept inside the walls to help humanitiy if the wall was destroyed, were kept in there out of fear, or were put in their against their will.

The last theory we had was that the walls could have got their name from the titan shifter's real names.

Anyway, this is just a theory that we decided to put out there for discussion. Hope you liked it!
