Summary

The story of this Arc explains how a group of Titans appeared inside the Walls due to a possible breach of Wall Rose. The members of the 104th Training Corps will suddenly have to fight against the Titans, and the battle will be bloody and extremely violent.

Thus, Eren Jaeger , along with the others, will find themselves involved in a decisive battle.

Plot

Titans have appeared in Wall Rose, and members of the Survey Corps are assessing the possibility of a breach. Ordering the evacuation of nearby towns will be a mission that will affect the cadets of the 104th Training Corps, while Mike Zacharius tries to buy time by eliminating a few Titans along the way. As Mike plans his retreat, a giant ape-like creature appears, attacks him, and steals his 3D maneuvering gear, preventing his escape and resulting in a fatal end.

Meanwhile, some members of the 104th Training Corps like Ymir Fritz None Krista Lenz and Connie Springer arrive at Utgard Castle after passing through Ragako. However, the castle is quickly infested with Titans. At the same time, two crews examining the Wall meet and report the absence of any breach. They therefore try to understand how the Titans managed to appear inside the Wall. Simultaneously, in the Trost District, Eren Jaeger None Armin Arlelt None Mikasa Ackermann None Levi Ackermann None Hange Zoe and Pastor Nick decide to go to Utgard Castle.

The Titans eventually invade the castle despite the lack of sunlight. They appear to be led by the beastly ape Titan . This unfortunate inconvenience forces the soldiers to defend the tower. As a last resort against the attacks, Ymir reveals her Jaw Titan form and manages to kill several Titans. However, the number of Titans is such that it is still not enough. But when the Jaw Titan seems to be about to die, she is saved by reinforcements from the Survey Corps , among whom were Eren and Mikasa, who eliminate the Titans and help Ymir and the others escape to the top of the Walls. There, it is decided that the members return to Trost to judge Ymir. However, before embarking on this journey, Reiner reveals his true identities alongside Bertolt: the Armored Titan and the Colossal Titan , respectively.
A battle between Eren and Reiner begins in their Titan forms, while Bertolt, also transformed, confronts Hange's squad and snatches them from Ymir. Eventually, Reiner and Bertolt triumph and escape, taking Ymir and Eren with them. Afterwards, the Survey Corps, along with the Garrison Regiment and the Military Police Brigade , attempt to chase them down to recapture Eren. Erwin takes advantage of being followed by the mindless Titans, who also attempt to eat them, and attempts to lure them to Reiner and Bertolt. This strategy costs the lives of several soldiers, including Hannes, but they manage to save Eren, who, consumed by anger, unleashes a new power with which he seems to be able to control the Titans. Ymir bids Krista farewell to leave with Reiner and Bertolt, and the soldiers return to the Walls.
