Eren cannot believe he plugged the outer gate so easily, but Levi warns him that their enemies can always break it again as long as they live. The Scouts signal their success and Hange has them head for the inner gate, continuing to hide their faces. Though his ODM gear is fine, he lost his cloak so Mikasa gives him hers. Eren's attempt at hardening his Titan is successful in plugging the breach, and Mikasa retrieves him so he can rejoin the rest of their squad. Nearby, inside unknown locations, Bertholdt and Reiner are able to see the light from Eren's transformation. Hange agrees and fires a green signal flare to announce that they have arrived at their destination.Įren hurtles over the Wall and dives down to the breach below as he bites his hand to transform into a Titan. Hange finds it strange, but Levi says they have to continue with the plan. He flags Erwin's attention, realizing that Reiner Braun and Bertholdt Hoover must be nearby.Īround the outer Wall, Hange notices that there are no Titans around. However, Armin pauses, noticing a sooty residue on the top of the Wall the remains of a fire. To avoid their enemies singling out Eren for an attack, all one hundred of the Scout Regiment soldiers are wearing hoods to cover their faces.Įren is briefly overcome with emotion after landing on the Wall and seeing the town inside, but Levi Ackermann tells him to hurry, and Eren and his squad follow after their captain. This will isolate the town, allowing the Scouts to exterminate any Titans remaining inside. Erwin's plan involves sealing two gates the inner and the outer of Shiganshina. When they get close, they switch to omni-directional mobility gear and scale the Wall. Ahead of them, one of the Scouts calls out that they have found a trail, and Eren, Mikasa, and Armin realize that they have finally come back to their hometown.Īs day breaks, the Scouts charge on horseback for the Walls of Shiganshina District. Mikasa then stops, recognizing the woods they are in as the place she and Eren used to gather firewood. Feeling better, he thanks Armin and tells him that by this time next year he bets they will be looking at the sea. He does not know why, but when it comes to taking back their freedom, he feels a strength flow through him. Armin asks Eren how he was able to do that.Įren replies that he remembered when Armin showed him the book about the outside world and he realized that they were trapped by the Titans. Most people would be terrified of them, and Armin himself was almost eaten by one, but Eren was able to pull him out of a Titan's mouth with no regard for his own safety. Though Eren denies his fear, Armin tries to comfort him by showing him that he is shaking as well, and asks if Eren has ever been afraid of Titans. Mikasa Ackermann and Armin Arlelt pick up on his nervousness. The Scouts leave the Titan alone and Eren Jaeger begins to feel the pressure of the operation, and how everyone is counting on him. Hange Zoë speculates that it is not one of the new types that can move at night, but it could be inactive simply because they are traveling on a moonless night when the sun's light cannot reflect off the surface of the moon. The Scout Regiment travels towards Wall Maria under the cover of night to begin their operation to reclaim the territory they lost five years ago.Īlong the way, they stumble across a Titan, but it appears to be asleep and does not react to their presence. This cuts off the Scout Regiment's only way of escape, forcing them to face the Titans. It hurls a boulder into the breach in the Wall's inner gate, closing off the district's only remaining ground exit and trapping the Scout Regiment's horses on the Titan side of the Wall. Outside the district, the Beast Titan appears along with a small army of Titans. They uncover Reiner Braun hiding inside the Wall itself, but Levi Ackermann is unable to kill him before Reiner transforms into the Armored Titan. Eren Jaeger successfully plugs the outer gate leading to the exterior of the Walls, using his Titan's hardening ability and without encountering any enemy resistance.Īrmin Arlelt discovers signs of an enemy presence and leads a group of soldiers to search for their hiding place. The Scout Regiment arrives in Shiganshina District only to discover it is completely devoid of Titans. 3 Currently Publicly Available Information.
