17. Judgement

Complete story — includes the ending

Hange and the Jaegerists discover Levi's body and find Zeke as he emerges from the dying Pure Titan fully healed, which Hange uses as a distraction to escape with Levi. Zeke explains to Floch that his massive wounds were treated by a mysterious girl in the mystical place called the Paths. Meanwhile at Shiganshina, Marleyan soldiers descend from their airships, and Pieck and Gabi reunite with Magath and Colt. Deducing from Zeke's words recited by Gabi, their objective is to not let Eren and Zeke make physical contact. Reiner and Porco battle Eren, but he overwhelms them using the War Hammer's power. The tide turns when Magath fires a new anti-Titan cannon at Eren from the Cart Titan's back on Wall Maria, incapacitating him and giving Reiner the chance to gain the upper hand. The Jaegerist soldiers suffer heavy losses from the Marleyan forces. In desperation, Onyankopon releases the imprisoned Survey Corps members along with Nicolo and the Braus family and asks for their help to defeat the Warriors. He convinces them that he was not part of the euthanization plan, but they debate whether they should help Eren and Zeke, possibly the only ones who can protect Paradis Island. Armin suggests that Eren lied to Mikasa and that he's just playing along with Zeke and Yelena, but the response is silence.
