I just realized, I've been wanting Mikasa to become the Female Titan, but that might not even be possible. As they made a point to make it clear she's, like, Eastern. Which means she's not Eldian...
You realize that, barring some new magic being introduced, that's, like, a foregone conclusion at this point, right?
He's only got a couple years left to live now. He can either pick a successor and let himself get eaten, or just let himself die naturally and leave it to chance.
That said, if that choice gets made, it'll BE the finale. So there won't be anything left for you to not watch.
Other than, you know, like a dozen people back home? Why wouldn't he give it to Levi or Jean instead of some kid he just met?
And WHY would you intentionally pick a kid? Marley does it because they're child soldier brainwashing assholes. There's no reason for Eren to do that. They were going to make the commander the colossal titan until Armin needed it instead. Why doom some kid to die in his 20s when you don't have to?
