Thaw

Eren and the Wall Titans march off to trample the world outside of Paradis. Reiner and Gabi search for Falco who was presumably carried away by Jean and Connie. Reiner was wounded while protecting Gabi from falling debris for his Titan's armor also disappeared. He regrets his failure over halting Eren and urges Gabi to escape and warn everyone, but she points out that Eren must be stopped. Reiner states he has already given up, so he's left behind in a house. The Pure Titans created by Zeke run amok in Shiganshina. Armin, Mikasa, Jean and Connie discuss Eren's actions and an unconscious Falco's fate when a Titan's sudden attack allows Connie to escape with the boy, planning to feed him to his mother to make her human again. In the Titan-filled streets, Gabi saves Kaya from Nile's Titan and the Braus family and Nicolo protects her from the Survey Corps, mending the rift between them. Armin, Mikasa, Jean, and Shadis rally the remaining Jaegerists and Cadets. The soldiers lure all the Pure Titans towards the fort in the center of the district where they work together to finish off their former comrades with Armin killing Pyxis' Titan. The battle ends with all Pure Titans and Marleyan soldiers killed, although the thrilled Louise is injured. Onyankopon and Yelena are baffled to witness the Rumbling. Floch is revealed to be alive as he arrives with an intention to punish the Volunteers. Mr. Braus takes Armin and Mikasa to Gabi who is horrified to learn of Connie's plan and pleads with Armin to convince Eren that not everyone outside the island has to die. Upon learning that the Armored Titan's hardening came undone at the same time as the beginning of the Rumbling, Armin deduces that Eren commanded all Titan hardening be undone, implying that Annie's crystal is now also undone.
