Cheat happens attack on titan
This was the first time audiences, as well as the main cast born within the walls, learned that some people could turn into Titan shifters. While he remembered what happened to his mother, his memories about what happened to his father, Grisha, were blurry, and things only got more confusing for Eren when he learned he was a Titan shifter back in Season 1, Episode 8, "Hearing the Heartbeat - The Battle for Trost (4)."
Apparently, all of Eren's experiences have rendered him nearly incapable of recognizing what actual love even is, which gives even more context to his epic slide from heroism to villainy.WARNING: The following contains spoilers up to Season 4, Episode 10 of Attack on Titan, "A Sound Argument," now streaming on Crunchyroll, Funimation, Amazon Prime and Hulu.Įren has been a primary protagonist since the beginning of Attack on Titan, with his world falling to pieces when his mother, Carla, was eaten by a Titan. While connecting with Zeke prior to the raid on Liberio, the holder of the Beast Titan dismissed the idea, suggesting that, look bro, maybe she just really likes you. In a complete 180, it turns out that what Eren told Mikasa about her protective instincts may have been a lie. RELATED: The Rise (And Rise) Of MAPPA, From Terror In Resonance To Attack On Titanīut while Mikasa may be starting to move on from Eren, this latest chapter shows, through flashbacks, that his hateful words didn't have any bite to them. Mikasa stopped wearing the scarf shortly after Eren's apparent betrayal to side with Zeke, his half-brother by blood, and is now faced with the eventuality that the only way to stop the man she's spent most of her life protecting from harm from destroying the world is by killing him.
That scene is a far cry away from the cold and cruel Eren in Chapter #112, and even further from the vindictive monster he's become now. After a night of drinking, the two fell asleep practically holding hands. The phrasing wasn't so much suspicious probing but a genuine need to solidify their bond - whatever that bond was. In a previous chapter, during the Scouts' infiltration of Liberio, the pair shared an intimate moment in which Eren queried what exactly her feelings toward him were. He ends this tirade by telling his adopted sister that he's grown to "hate" her for it. In Chapter #112, Eren drops a sizeable bombshell on Mikasa pertaining to her kind, revealing that her feelings are nothing more than her being bred to protect the Eldian King - an instinct she's transferred onto Eren. The result of experimentation on Eldian blood, the Ackermans are an enhanced group that doesn't have the potential to turn into Titans but can still access a portion of their strength, speed and durability. So intense are her feelings for him that Hajime Isayama even went so far as to make this a genetic trait of the Ackerman clan. Placing a scarf around her neck, he welcomed her into his own family and she's been slavishly devoted to him ever since. Mikasa's deep-seated feelings for Eren stem from him saving her from an abusive home as a child.

The source material itself has long played this relationship as tragically one-sided, to the point that the Season 2 finale of the anime had Eren somehow miss Mikasa's painfully obvious attempt at a pre-certain-death kiss.Ĭhapter #130 gives what might be the clearest indication yet that Eren is unmistakably aware of her feelings. Being not as convoluted as Vampire Knight's or as icky as The Irregular at Magic High School's central romances (Eren and Mikasa are adopted brother and sister, after all), their "will they, won't they?" dynamic has fuelled intense shipping within the franchise's community for years. Since the series' debut in 2009, Attack on Titan's Eren Jaeger and Mikasa Ackerman have been flying the flag for complicated sibling relationships in manga/anime.
