Speaker 1: the description the Life of Erwin Smith Attack on Titan.
0:10
Speaker 1: Irwin Smith was the thirteenth commander of the Scout Regiment. Discerning, intelligent,
0:15
Speaker 1: and widely respected, Erwin was an able commander. While he
0:18
Speaker 1: cared deeply for his men, he did not hesitate to
0:21
Speaker 1: sacrifice them for the good and prosperity of mankind, and
0:24
Speaker 1: his men have proven more than willing to stake their
0:27
Speaker 1: lives at his order. Erwin developed the Long Distance Enemy
0:30
Speaker 1: Scouting Formation due to uncertainty about his future. He later
0:33
Speaker 1: named Hanji Zoe as his successor. Welcome to the Imagi.
0:37
Speaker 1: In today's video, we're going over the life of Erwin Smith.

0:49
Speaker 1: As a child, Erwin was a curious and insightful individual
0:53
Speaker 1: who did not accept facts at face value. He questioned
0:56
Speaker 1: why humanity had no memory of what happened before they
0:59
Speaker 1: lived within the wall, because even if they had lost
1:02
Speaker 1: all their records, the first generation should have been able
1:04
Speaker 1: to teach their children. His father shared a theory with
1:07
Speaker 1: him that the King had altered humanity's memories when they
1:10
Speaker 1: first entered the walls so he could control them better.
1:13
Speaker 1: Too innocent to realize why his father would not discuss
1:16
Speaker 1: this in the classroom, Erwin shared it with the other
1:18
Speaker 1: kids in town, which resulted in his father's accidental death
1:22
Speaker 1: arranged by the military police regiment. From then on, Erwin
1:25
Speaker 1: became convinced that his father's theory had been correct. However,
1:29
Speaker 1: Erwin came to an additional conclusion on his own. The
1:32
Speaker 1: government is not interested in protecting humanity so much as
1:35
Speaker 1: their land and wealth, and that they would kill anyone
1:37
Speaker 1: who threatens that authority. When he joined the Cadets, he
1:40
Speaker 1: became friends with Nile Dock and used to tell others
1:43
Speaker 1: about his father's theory and his own theory that the
1:45
Speaker 1: royal government was hiding the truth about the world. He
1:48
Speaker 1: thought that once he became a Scout he would prove it,
1:51
Speaker 1: but after he joined the Scout regiment, he stopped talking
1:53
Speaker 1: about it. Instead, he realized that unlike the other Scouts
1:56
Speaker 1: who were fighting for the sake of humanity, Erwin was
1:59
Speaker 1: fighting for his personal dream. Eventually, he found himself in
2:03
Speaker 1: a position where he had to get orders and inspire others.
2:06
Speaker 1: So he learned to fool his comrades and himself into
2:08
Speaker 1: making sacrifices that had nothing to do with what he
2:11
Speaker 1: truly wanted. Wall a squad leader, Erwin devised the long
2:14
Speaker 1: range Enemy Scouting formation as a way to minimize casualties
2:18
Speaker 1: while on expeditions. Erwin began implementing his strategies in his
2:22
Speaker 1: own squad when he became commander and overtime. Other soldiers
2:25
Speaker 1: and the populace began to notice that his squad would
2:28
Speaker 1: take no casualties, whereas Keith Shattus would often be the
2:31
Speaker 1: only survivor of his charges. A Choice with No Regrets,
2:35
Speaker 1: Part one, Erwin and his squad pursue Levi, Ackerman, Ferland Church,
2:39
Speaker 1: and Isabel Magnolia in the underground after they commit a heist. Levi,
2:44
Speaker 1: having been given warning that they would be after him,
2:47
Speaker 1: splits off from his friends and leads the squad on
2:49
Speaker 1: a good chase. He engages Mike Zacharius in combat with
2:52
Speaker 1: a knife before Erwin hurdles down from above to intervene.
2:56
Speaker 1: They clash, and Erwin convinces Levi to surrender since his
2:59
Speaker 1: squad has already captured his friends. Levi drops his knife,
3:02
Speaker 1: and after their restrained, Erwin asks the trio about where
3:05
Speaker 1: they obtained their omnidirectional mobility gear and how they learn
3:09
Speaker 1: to use it. When they don't immediately answer, Mike shoves
3:12
Speaker 1: Levi's face into a dirty puddle, causing Ferland to insist
3:15
Speaker 1: that they're self taught. Erwin finds this difficult to believe,
3:18
Speaker 1: but Ferland tells them that they had to learn in
3:21
Speaker 1: order to rise above their current living conditions, something that Erwin,
3:24
Speaker 1: as a person who lives in sunlight, wouldn't understand. Hearing this,
3:28
Speaker 1: Erwin kneels down to Levi's level and introduces himself. He
3:32
Speaker 1: offers Levi a deal. If he joins a Scout regiment,
3:34
Speaker 1: he will not be charged for his crimes. If he refuses,
3:38
Speaker 1: he and his friends would be handed over to the
3:40
Speaker 1: military police regiment, which is unlikely to treat them well.
3:44
Speaker 1: Erwin is pleased when Levi agrees to join A Choice
3:47
Speaker 1: with No Regrets Part two. At a meeting with Keith Shattis,
3:51
Speaker 1: the current commander of the Scout Regiment, the other section
3:54
Speaker 1: commanders express disapproval over Erwin's recruitment of Levi, Ferland and Isabel,
3:59
Speaker 1: as well as his desire to take them on the
4:01
Speaker 1: next mission. Erwin understands their concerns but vouches for the
4:04
Speaker 1: former criminal's skill, and Keith backs him up. The commander
4:08
Speaker 1: also believes that Erwin's new long ranged scouting formation will
4:11
Speaker 1: help avoid Titans and reduce their losses. On a carriage
4:14
Speaker 1: ride back to headquarters, Keith informs Erwin that the delayed
4:17
Speaker 1: budget for the next expedition has been approved. An assembly member,
4:20
Speaker 1: Nicholas Lavov, suddenly switched his vote. Noting Erwin's lack of surprise,
4:25
Speaker 1: Keith asks if he has done something underhanded to cause this.
4:28
Speaker 1: Erwin informs him that Lavov favors the company that supplies
4:31
Speaker 1: the military police and wishes to reallocate the Scout Regiment's
4:35
Speaker 1: funding to them. He has proof of it. Fighting Titans
4:38
Speaker 1: has taught Irwin how precarious humanity situation is, and because
4:42
Speaker 1: of that, they must not abandon their efforts to retake
4:44
Speaker 1: the world, no matter what methods they must employ. On
4:48
Speaker 1: the twenty third Exterior Scouting mission, the long range Scouting
4:51
Speaker 1: formation is used for the first time, but before long
4:54
Speaker 1: it begins to reign, ruining visibility and the usefulness of
4:57
Speaker 1: signal flares. Erwin advises Keith to nik narrow the formation
5:00
Speaker 1: and slow down in response to the weather. The rain
5:03
Speaker 1: prevents several of the scouts from seeing an abnormal titan
5:06
Speaker 1: in time, and Ferlan and Isabel are killed. Irwin arrives
5:10
Speaker 1: as the rain lets up to find an angry and
5:12
Speaker 1: distraught Levi standing beside the dead body of the titan.
5:15
Speaker 1: He asks Levi if he's the only survivor and calls
5:18
Speaker 1: him rather unsightly. Still seething, Levi attacks Erwin, saying that
5:23
Speaker 1: he will kill him, that is why he is here.
5:26
Speaker 1: In response, Irwin throws out a copy of the document
5:29
Speaker 1: that Levi and his friends had been searching for and
5:31
Speaker 1: lets him know that he's too late. Lovov, the man
5:34
Speaker 1: who hired him, is already done for. Seeing that Levi
5:38
Speaker 1: is beginning to emotionally shut down in the face of
5:40
Speaker 1: everything he has lost, Erwin tells him to stop before
5:43
Speaker 1: he regrets this. No one knows what results their choices
5:46
Speaker 1: will bring. The mission will continue, and Levi is coming
5:50
Speaker 1: with them. The Fall of Shiganshina ark in the year
5:54
Speaker 1: eight forty five, Irwin takes part in an expedition beyond
5:57
Speaker 1: Wall Maria. When the soldiers encounter a Titan, Erwin reports
6:01
Speaker 1: their distance from the titan to Keith's Shadis while the
6:03
Speaker 1: scouts split up to engage the titan. Erwin is among
6:06
Speaker 1: the soldiers who returned to Shiganshina alive after the failed
6:09
Speaker 1: mission Ilse's notebook notes from a Scout regiment member. While
6:13
Speaker 1: leading the forty ninth Exterior Scouting Mission, Erwin is confronted
6:17
Speaker 1: by Hanji Zoe, who demands that they will be allowed
6:19
Speaker 1: to capture Titans to use as test subjects. Recognizing the
6:23
Speaker 1: extra danger that would arise if soldiers did not engage
6:26
Speaker 1: titans with the intent to kill, Erwin refuses Honji's proposal.
6:29
Speaker 1: When shortly thereafter, Hanji abandons the larger expedition. Forced to
6:33
Speaker 1: try to capture a Titan on their own, Erwin orders
6:36
Speaker 1: Levi to follow Hanji and keep them out of harm's way.
6:39
Speaker 1: Following the retrieval of Ilse Langnar's notebook, which detailed Ilse's
6:43
Speaker 1: encounter with a Titan that possessed the ability to speak,
6:46
Speaker 1: Erwin approves Hanji's proposal to begin capturing titans in order
6:49
Speaker 1: to study them. The struggle for Trost. Arc Erwin leads
6:54
Speaker 1: the Scout regiment as it works to clear the town
6:56
Speaker 1: inside wall Maria, they discover Titans are moving north towards
7:00
Speaker 1: the Trust district of wall Rose. Fearing a breach, they
7:03
Speaker 1: head to the Trost district and narrowly save a trapped Erin,
7:06
Speaker 1: Armin and Mikassa. After their mission to block the hole
7:08
Speaker 1: is complete, Erwin next appears when Arin recovers from his
7:12
Speaker 1: three day coma and is kept in a jail cell
7:14
Speaker 1: beneath the military court. He explains to Erin that his
7:17
Speaker 1: Titan powers have caused an uproar within the walls. He's
7:20
Speaker 1: taken the key to Erin's basement and asks if the
7:23
Speaker 1: secret to Titans is located in the basement, to which
7:25
Speaker 1: Erin replies that he thinks it is. Erwin then formulates
7:29
Speaker 1: a plan to use Erin's Titan form to retake wal
7:32
Speaker 1: Maria so they can investigate the basement. Eve of the
7:35
Speaker 1: counter attack, arc Erwin attends the military's tribunal to determine
7:40
Speaker 1: what to do with Erin Yeager, proposing to the military's premier,
7:43
Speaker 1: Dallas Zachary, that the boy be entrusted to the Scout
7:46
Speaker 1: Regiment so that his powers can be used to reclaim
7:49
Speaker 1: Wall Maria. In the middle of the trial, Arin loses
7:51
Speaker 1: its temper, prompting Levi to beat him in front of
7:54
Speaker 1: everyone to prove that he can be controlled. Seizing the opportunity,
7:58
Speaker 1: Erwin promises that he will stay Erin under Levi if
8:01
Speaker 1: he's allowed to join the Scouts, ensuring that he will
8:04
Speaker 1: be kept under control. Additionally, to keep the Walls civilians calm,
8:08
Speaker 1: he agrees to hand Erin over to the military police
8:10
Speaker 1: if the boy proves to be a failure on his
8:12
Speaker 1: first scouting mission. Satisfied with Erwin's proposal, Zachary hands Erin
8:16
Speaker 1: over to the Scouts. After the trial, Erwin and some
8:19
Speaker 1: of his officers meet with Erin privately. Erwin apologizes to
8:22
Speaker 1: Erin for Levi's treatment of him, before commending him for
8:25
Speaker 1: unwittingly giving them the perfect argument to convince the military
8:28
Speaker 1: to turn him over to the Scouts, formally welcoming him
8:31
Speaker 1: to the Scout regiment. After the death of the Titan
8:34
Speaker 1: research subjects Bean and Sonny, he tests everyone in the
8:38
Speaker 1: Scout regiment by asking them a direct but confusing question
8:41
Speaker 1: to gauge the reactions. When this turns everyone innocent, he
8:45
Speaker 1: begins planning the next expedition to capture the spy, guessing
8:48
Speaker 1: they have abilities similar to Erin and are intent on
8:51
Speaker 1: sabotaging the expedition. Erwin later appears that the recruitment drive
8:55
Speaker 1: where the one or fourth Cadet Corps choose their path.
8:58
Speaker 1: He makes an impassioned plea that this scout regiment and
9:01
Speaker 1: Erin represent the hope of humanity, although he is very
9:04
Speaker 1: realistic in telling them that a sizeable number of them
9:07
Speaker 1: will die. His speech and other factors succeed in recruiting
9:11
Speaker 1: every remaining member of the top ten graduates, except Annie,
9:15
Speaker 1: who joins the military police brigade the fifty seventh Exterior
9:19
Speaker 1: Scouting Mission ARC. Erwin leads the fifty seventh expedition out
9:23
Speaker 1: of Kalanath District on a mission to reach Shiganshina District
9:26
Speaker 1: and potentially uncover the secret of Erin's basement. Shortly after
9:30
Speaker 1: the scout regiment reaches open territory outside wall Rose, he
9:33
Speaker 1: orders them into a long range scouting formation. Despite the
9:37
Speaker 1: decimation of the formation's right flank by an abnormal titan,
9:40
Speaker 1: Erwin continues the operation to the surprise of his soldiers.
9:44
Speaker 1: He directs them to a forest of giant trees, where
9:46
Speaker 1: the central column containing the carts and the Special Operation
9:49
Speaker 1: Squad are to follow him inside, while the rest of
9:52
Speaker 1: the formation surrounds the force perimeter to prevent the entry
9:55
Speaker 1: of any additional Titans. Understanding that the abnormal titan destroying
9:59
Speaker 1: his ranks is intell diligent, Erwin plans to deal with
10:02
Speaker 1: it inside. The Special Operation Squad leads the female Titan
10:05
Speaker 1: into Erwin's trap, where he orders the firing of the
10:08
Speaker 1: Special Target Restraining weapon. This allows the Scout regiment to
10:12
Speaker 1: successfully capture it. When Levi and Mike try to cut
10:15
Speaker 1: through the female Titan's hands to the nape, Erwin notes
10:17
Speaker 1: that it can selectively harden its body, similar to what
10:20
Speaker 1: he's heard about the Armour Titan. He decides the Scouts
10:23
Speaker 1: don't have enough time to see if the titan will
10:25
Speaker 1: weaken under repeated assaults, and calls Kaji over to prepare
10:29
Speaker 1: explosives to blow off the female Titan's hands at the
10:31
Speaker 1: wrists to avoid killing the person inside. Before that can happen,
10:35
Speaker 1: the female Titan screams, and Mike alerts Erwin to multiple
10:38
Speaker 1: titans approaching from all directions. Erwin sends the car team
10:42
Speaker 1: to intercept the first wave of Titans, but they ignore
10:44
Speaker 1: the soldiers and break through. He realizes that they're after
10:48
Speaker 1: the female Titan and orders the scouts to defend it. However,
10:51
Speaker 1: they are overwhelmed and unable to keep up. The female
10:54
Speaker 1: Titan is torn to pieces, and Erwin calls his soldiers
10:57
Speaker 1: to retreat. They are going back to Callin. As Erwin
11:01
Speaker 1: watches the Titans devour what remains of the female Titan,
11:04
Speaker 1: he admits to Levi that he didn't expect their enemy
11:06
Speaker 1: would be willing to sacrifice themselves. The steam emitting from
11:09
Speaker 1: the remains of the female Titan causes them to think
11:12
Speaker 1: of the colossal Titan, which had also vanished in the
11:14
Speaker 1: cloud of steam. Before Levi can call back his team,
11:18
Speaker 1: Erwin tells him to refill his gas and blades. Hanji
11:21
Speaker 1: questions the order while they ride out of the forest
11:23
Speaker 1: because they cannot spare the time, and Erwin explains that
11:26
Speaker 1: though the female Titan has been eaten, he can't say
11:28
Speaker 1: the same for the person inside. He expects that their
11:31
Speaker 1: enemy has regained human form and is now able to
11:34
Speaker 1: move around. If they also equip omnidirectional mobility gear. Then
11:38
Speaker 1: they're likely wearing the Scout regiment uniform and are camouflaged
11:42
Speaker 1: as a fellow soldier. Erwin thinks it was mistake to
11:45
Speaker 1: have based their assumption of the female titan's abilities on Erin,
11:48
Speaker 1: who is a complete novice when it comes to his powers.
11:51
Speaker 1: On the way back to kalinef Erwin receives a report
11:53
Speaker 1: from Pierre on the number of deceased soldiers whose bodies
11:56
Speaker 1: the regiment was unable to retrieve. Erwin orders that they
11:59
Speaker 1: be lit as missing in action, prompting objections from two
12:03
Speaker 1: soldiers named Dita and Jurgen. Unconcerned with their protests, Erwin
12:07
Speaker 1: refuses to send anyone to recover the missing bodies. The
12:10
Speaker 1: regiment resumes its return to Kalinath, but is soon attacked
12:13
Speaker 1: by Titans, Whodita and Jurgen have accidentally attracted while trying
12:17
Speaker 1: to recover their friend's body. With no nearby trees or
12:19
Speaker 1: building to utilize their ODM gear, Erwin has the formation
12:23
Speaker 1: raced for the walls. Rather than attempt to engage, he
12:25
Speaker 1: leads the Scouts back to Kalinath, where they are greeted
12:28
Speaker 1: by grumbles of wasted taxes and demands for justification for
12:32
Speaker 1: the number of dead. Because of the expedition's failure, Erwin
12:35
Speaker 1: is summoned to the Capitol to hand over Erin assault
12:38
Speaker 1: on stow Hiss Arc Before they depart for the Capitol,
12:42
Speaker 1: Armand shares his suspicion with Erwin that Annie Leonhardt is
12:45
Speaker 1: the female Titan, planning to capture her. When they pass
12:47
Speaker 1: through Stohs District en route to the Capitol, Erwin has
12:50
Speaker 1: Jehan Kerstein masquerade as Erin, while Erin, Armin and Mikassa
12:54
Speaker 1: lure Annie into a trap. When their plan forces Annie
12:57
Speaker 1: to transform in the middle of Stojis, Erwin informs the
13:00
Speaker 1: Nile Doc to prepare his troops and to assume that
13:02
Speaker 1: a titan has appeared inside of the district. He then
13:05
Speaker 1: instruct Jehan, who has shed his disguise, to equip ODM
13:08
Speaker 1: gear and help with the capture. A scout soldier arrives
13:11
Speaker 1: with ODM gear for Erwin himself, and as he equips it,
13:14
Speaker 1: Erwin orders all soldiers president to follow him to assist
13:17
Speaker 1: in the titan's capture. However, he stopped at gunpoint by Nile,
13:21
Speaker 1: who accuses Erwin of treason. As the two men stand off,
13:24
Speaker 1: Nile receives a report of civilian casualties caused by the combat,
13:28
Speaker 1: angering him further. Erwin freely admits that he expected casualties
13:32
Speaker 1: to arise from his plans, explaining that he was prepared
13:35
Speaker 1: to make sacrifices to lead humanity to victory. Nile threatens
13:39
Speaker 1: to execute Erwin for his actions, but Erwin tells him
13:42
Speaker 1: that if he does, then he will have to take
13:44
Speaker 1: Irwin's place in leading the capture operation. Swayed by Erwin's words,
13:48
Speaker 1: Nile orders that Erwin be detained before ordering his own
13:51
Speaker 1: troops to begin aiding evacuating civilians. After civilians have been evacuated,
13:55
Speaker 1: Erwin accompanies nile squad as they go to observe the
13:58
Speaker 1: end of Erin and Annie's battles the edge of the district.
14:01
Speaker 1: Although the others take cover from debris from the battle,
14:03
Speaker 1: Erwin elects to watch the entire capture to its end.
14:06
Speaker 1: He's eventually apprehended, and Erwin goes into an emergency meeting
14:10
Speaker 1: held to sort out the day's events. He manages to
14:12
Speaker 1: convince the council that despite the expedition failure and subsequent
14:16
Speaker 1: death of some civilians in the inner city. They finally
14:19
Speaker 1: catch the female Titan successfully, and this indicates that there
14:23
Speaker 1: must be more of her kind hiding among them. Flash
14:26
Speaker 1: of the Titans arc in Stohez's district, Erwin takes a
14:29
Speaker 1: report from his aids that the Scouts have covered the
14:32
Speaker 1: newly discovered Wall Titan with sheets until more proper measures
14:35
Speaker 1: can be taken after sunset. One of them says that
14:38
Speaker 1: he never imagined there would be Titans inside the walls,
14:41
Speaker 1: and Erwin concludes that it's not that no one imagined
14:43
Speaker 1: they would be there, so much as there are people
14:45
Speaker 1: who knew and people who did not. When Thomas arrives
14:49
Speaker 1: with news of the Wall Rose invasion, Erwin asks if
14:52
Speaker 1: Levi is able to go, and the latter says there
14:55
Speaker 1: isn't much of a choice. Though it's now nighttime. Erwin
14:58
Speaker 1: leads the Scout regiment out of Stohis and they ride
15:00
Speaker 1: to Ermish District, since they know the walls are safe
15:03
Speaker 1: at least up until that point. By the next day,
15:05
Speaker 1: Erwin's forces are in Tross District, where he meets up
15:08
Speaker 1: with Dot Pixis. Pixis congratulates him for finding one of
15:11
Speaker 1: their mice, even though the plan did not succeed as
15:14
Speaker 1: well as hoped. Now those in the interior will reconsider
15:17
Speaker 1: their motives and beliefs. Erwin says they have. The military
15:21
Speaker 1: police have been forced to come out and help fight
15:23
Speaker 1: against the Titans. Erwin is present when Phil reports to
15:26
Speaker 1: Pixis about having met up with Hanji's unit on top
15:29
Speaker 1: of Wall Rose. He hears that in additional three cadets
15:32
Speaker 1: of the one o fourth can change into Titans, and
15:35
Speaker 1: asks what happened when their forms were revealed. Phil tells
15:38
Speaker 1: him the scouts engaged the colossal and armored Titans, but
15:41
Speaker 1: the battle was over by the time Phyl's unit was
15:43
Speaker 1: able to join. The combined military forces ride along the
15:46
Speaker 1: top of Wall Rose, and when they meet up with
15:48
Speaker 1: Hanji's unit, Erwin has them deploy the lifts to carry
15:51
Speaker 1: the horses down to the ground on the outside of
15:53
Speaker 1: the wall. Though badly injured, Hanji gets a map and
15:56
Speaker 1: shows Erin where a force of giant trees is. Hanji
15:59
Speaker 1: suspects Reiner and Birdtholt have gone there, explaining that even
16:02
Speaker 1: though they can change into Titans, they are probably exhausted
16:05
Speaker 1: and will need to rest somewhere. Ordinary Titans are not
16:08
Speaker 1: able to reach them before making a run for the
16:10
Speaker 1: outside of Wall Maria. The scout regiment will only have
16:13
Speaker 1: until nightfall when the other Titans can't move. Erwin leads
16:16
Speaker 1: the combined military force into a long range scouting formation
16:19
Speaker 1: as they head for the forest. When Titans begin to
16:21
Speaker 1: approach from the right flank, Erwin has the formation pull
16:24
Speaker 1: in on the side rather than change direction, as they
16:27
Speaker 1: can't afford to lose time. As Titans continue to approach,
16:30
Speaker 1: Erwin tries to maneuver the formation, but they end up
16:33
Speaker 1: being hemmed in on both sides as well as ahead
16:35
Speaker 1: of them. Deciding that it would take too much time
16:38
Speaker 1: to make a detour, Erwin orders the soldiers to force
16:40
Speaker 1: their way through. They arrive as the sun is setting,
16:43
Speaker 1: and when they see the light from a Titan transformation
16:45
Speaker 1: inside the forest, Erwin notes that they've arrived on time.
16:49
Speaker 1: He has the soldiers dispersed to locate and recover the
16:51
Speaker 1: kidnapped Erin. Their priority is to recover and retreat, not
16:55
Speaker 1: to fight the numerous Titans swarming around them. Erwin spots
16:59
Speaker 1: the armoured Titans gaping at the edge of the forest
17:01
Speaker 1: and calls for all squads to follow him. And let
17:04
Speaker 1: the Titans chase after them. He leads the military straight
17:07
Speaker 1: at Rhiner with all the Titans on their collective tail,
17:11
Speaker 1: Knowing that the Titans will be just as happy to
17:13
Speaker 1: attack the armour Titan, he shouts for all soldiers to
17:16
Speaker 1: disperse and get away, leaving Rhiner to deal with the
17:19
Speaker 1: brunt of the titan attention. Once Reiner is immobilized beneath
17:22
Speaker 1: the weight of all the other Titans, Erwin calls for
17:25
Speaker 1: the soldiers to attack because they must recover Erin if
17:28
Speaker 1: humanity is to have a future. As he leads the charge,
17:31
Speaker 1: a Titan unexpectedly appears in their midst, catching his arm
17:35
Speaker 1: in its mouth. Erwin shouts for the soldiers to continue
17:38
Speaker 1: their advance as it carries him away. He returns to
17:41
Speaker 1: the battle as Armin is baiting Berthold and Rhiner into
17:43
Speaker 1: losing control, and takes the opportunity to cut Erin free
17:46
Speaker 1: of Berthold, as well as severing one of Berthold's ODM
17:49
Speaker 1: grappling lines. Erwin's right arm is now cut off just
17:53
Speaker 1: below the soldier and bandage with a makeshift tourniquet. With
17:56
Speaker 1: Erin retrieved, Erwin bellows for all soldiers to retreat, begins
18:00
Speaker 1: throwing Titans at the fleeing soldiers, and Erwin is knocked
18:03
Speaker 1: from his horse as Emir takes out the titan chasing him.
18:06
Speaker 1: When a scout tries to help him, Erwin insists that
18:08
Speaker 1: he's replaceable, retreating with Erin is their top priority. The
18:12
Speaker 1: battle turns against the military as the soldiers are hammed
18:14
Speaker 1: in and the armoured Titan recovers enough strength to begin
18:17
Speaker 1: moving again. While trying to protect Mikasa, Erin strikes the
18:20
Speaker 1: Titan attacking them. This triggers something and causes all the
18:23
Speaker 1: other mindless Titans present to tear it apart. The Titans
18:27
Speaker 1: then go and attack Reiner and Berthold as well. Seeing
18:29
Speaker 1: the opportunity for escape, Erwin shouts for the soldiers to withdraw.
18:33
Speaker 1: Following the battle, Erwin recovers in Trost District and Hanji
18:37
Speaker 1: brings Connie to his room so he can confirm the
18:39
Speaker 1: discoveries made at Ragago Village. They don't have proof yet,
18:43
Speaker 1: but Hanji hypothesizes that the Titans fought within Wall Rose
18:47
Speaker 1: for the inhabitants of Ragako. Levi notices Erwin smiling despite
18:51
Speaker 1: the implications, and asks what he's smiling for Erwin initially
18:55
Speaker 1: says it's nothing, but elaborates that this knowledge brings them
18:59
Speaker 1: one step close to the truth the uprising arc. Once recovered,
19:04
Speaker 1: Erwin begins researching Christi Lenz's connection to the Rhees family
19:07
Speaker 1: and learns that Historia Christa Len's real name is the
19:10
Speaker 1: illegitimate daughter of Noble Rod Reese. The revelation only serves
19:14
Speaker 1: to leave him befuddled as to why a regional lord
19:17
Speaker 1: such as Rod would know any secrets about the Walls.
19:20
Speaker 1: He informs Levi of this during a meeting, during which
19:22
Speaker 1: Levi also updates Erin on how Hanji's experiments on Erin's
19:26
Speaker 1: Titan are going. After the government declares a hold on
19:29
Speaker 1: all Scout regiment activity, Erwin sends word to squad Levi
19:32
Speaker 1: of the development. As his messenger is departing. Nile Doc
19:36
Speaker 1: arrives to personally detain Erwin and relieve him of his belongings.
19:40
Speaker 1: Once Nile's finished, Erwin invites Nile to chat with him
19:43
Speaker 1: for a while, a proposition which Nile refuses. Erwin muses
19:46
Speaker 1: about their past together and voices his distrust of the
19:49
Speaker 1: government in securing the future of humanity to Nile's horror.
19:53
Speaker 1: After Nile leaves, Hanji and Moblit approach Erwin with the
19:56
Speaker 1: news of Erin and his Storia as captured by the
19:58
Speaker 1: military police and theirs suspicion that Erin might get eaten.
20:02
Speaker 1: Suspecting he will soon have all of the information he needs,
20:05
Speaker 1: Erwin sends DoD Pixis a letter informing the commander that
20:08
Speaker 1: he plans to orchestrate a rebellion against the royal government.
20:12
Speaker 1: Pixis visits Erwin immediately to confirm Erwin's intentions. Erwin reassures
20:17
Speaker 1: Pixis that depending on whether his suspicions are correct, they
20:20
Speaker 1: will be able to take power peaceably rather than by force.
20:24
Speaker 1: As he waits for confirmation of his theory, Erwin tells
20:26
Speaker 1: Pixis the story of how his father died. As Erwin
20:29
Speaker 1: finishes his story, Hanji and Moblt arrive with the information
20:32
Speaker 1: they gained from Jalsan's. Erwin informs Pixis that the Rehees'
20:36
Speaker 1: family is the true royal family and that Historia is
20:39
Speaker 1: the next in line for the throne. He plans on
20:42
Speaker 1: rescuing her, then publicly installing her as queen in order
20:46
Speaker 1: to force a regime change. Pixis agrees to support Erwin's
20:49
Speaker 1: plan and departs. As Pixis leaves, Erwin turns over all
20:53
Speaker 1: of the information he can gather on the Rheese family
20:56
Speaker 1: to Hanji. As he's doing so, a scout arrives and
20:59
Speaker 1: informs Irwin that the first Interior Squad is making a
21:02
Speaker 1: ruckus out in the city, saying that Erwin organizes the murder.
21:05
Speaker 1: Erwin orders Hanji to get away from here while he
21:08
Speaker 1: acts as the face of their organization. He informs Hanji
21:11
Speaker 1: that they will be the next commander of the Scout
21:13
Speaker 1: regiment and places the Scouts under their command. As he
21:16
Speaker 1: arrives at the scene of the crime, one of the
21:18
Speaker 1: military polices accuses the Scouts of hiring Reeves to stage
21:22
Speaker 1: a kidnapping of Erin so that the Scouts would not
21:24
Speaker 1: have to turn him over to the government, and killing
21:26
Speaker 1: Reeves afterward to keep him from talking. The MP charges
21:30
Speaker 1: Erwin and the Scouts with a violation of Clause six
21:32
Speaker 1: of the Humanity Charter, prioritizing one's gain over the safety
21:36
Speaker 1: and longevity of humanity. For this, Erwin and all of
21:39
Speaker 1: the Scouts in the city are arrested after he's been arrested,
21:43
Speaker 1: Erwin is visited by Gerald, a military official in King
21:46
Speaker 1: Fritz's Royal Assembly. Gerald apologizes for keeping Erwin waiting and
21:51
Speaker 1: proceeds to interrogate him. Though he's badly beaten during the questioning,
21:55
Speaker 1: Erwin doesn't reveal any information to his captors. He's later
21:59
Speaker 1: visited by Nile, who informs him that he's been granted
22:02
Speaker 1: an audience with the King, during which his fate and
22:04
Speaker 1: the fate of the Scout Regiment will be decided. However,
22:07
Speaker 1: Erwin ignores this dour news and instead asks Nile about
22:11
Speaker 1: his family and what section of the Walls they live in.
22:14
Speaker 1: Niles is confused by the question, and Erwin explains that
22:17
Speaker 1: he has entrusted something to Commander Pixis, cryptically stating that
22:21
Speaker 1: when the time comes, Nile and the Assembly will be
22:24
Speaker 1: forced to make a decision. Erwin is escorted to the
22:27
Speaker 1: Royal Throne Room, where he is to stand trial. As
22:30
Speaker 1: he arrives, one of the nobles asks if he has
22:33
Speaker 1: any final words for them. Erwin begins his defense by
22:36
Speaker 1: arguing for the survival of the Scout Regiment. He argues
22:39
Speaker 1: that should Wall Rose be breached by the colossal Titan,
22:42
Speaker 1: the way Wall Maria was. The subsequent evacuations of citizens
22:46
Speaker 1: to Walshena and the food shortages it would cause would
22:49
Speaker 1: lead to civil war within the Walls over resources. He
22:52
Speaker 1: also reminds them of the constant food shortages plaguing Wall
22:55
Speaker 1: Rose and argues that the only way to stop said
22:58
Speaker 1: shortages is for the Scout's reclaim Wall Maria. The nobles
23:02
Speaker 1: ignore his arguments and deflect his requests for alternative solutions
23:06
Speaker 1: to his suggestions, and after conferring, announce that Erwin will
23:09
Speaker 1: be sentenced to death for breaking the Charter of Humanity
23:13
Speaker 1: despite his grim predicament. Irwin smiles upon hearing the verdict,
23:17
Speaker 1: and as he is being escorted from the room, looks
23:19
Speaker 1: to Nile to observe his reaction. Anka bursts in and
23:23
Speaker 1: announces that the Colossal Titan and Armour Titan have breached
23:26
Speaker 1: Wall Rose. Refugees are already en route to Walshena. Pixis
23:31
Speaker 1: reacts immediately, calling for soldiers to secure an evacuation route,
23:35
Speaker 1: which causes the officials in the room to reveal their
23:38
Speaker 1: true colors. They give the order to shut the gates
23:41
Speaker 1: to Walshena, sacrificing half of humanity and Nile, appalled, chooses
23:45
Speaker 1: to stand with the Scouts and the Garrison in helping
23:48
Speaker 1: the refugees. On the heels of Nile's decision to side
23:51
Speaker 1: with Erwin, Premier Zachary arrives with a group of armed
23:54
Speaker 1: soldiers and announces that the attack was just a fabrication.
23:57
Speaker 1: The announcement was attested by Pixis to see if the
23:59
Speaker 1: Ara aristocracy is worthy of ruling the human race. Now
24:03
Speaker 1: all heads of the military are against them, and thanks
24:06
Speaker 1: to a report from the Burg newspaper, the civilians are
24:09
Speaker 1: as well. Erwin's coup has succeeded. However, Erwin doesn't celebrate.
24:15
Speaker 1: As he's released from his shackles, Erwin points out to
24:17
Speaker 1: Nile that the path they have chosen for humanity is
24:20
Speaker 1: much more dangerous than the one they were previously in.
24:23
Speaker 1: After the proclamation that the military has seized control of
24:26
Speaker 1: the capitol, Erwin departs in a carriage with Zachary. He
24:29
Speaker 1: expresses second thoughts about having deposed the monarchy, regardless of
24:33
Speaker 1: their corruption and selfishness, humanity had survived this long under
24:37
Speaker 1: their guardianship. Zachary tells him that he threw his lot
24:40
Speaker 1: in with the coup because of an intense desire to
24:43
Speaker 1: humiliate the king and his men, and he had planned
24:45
Speaker 1: to eventually give it a try with or without Erwin.
24:48
Speaker 1: The revolution is irrelevant to Zachary, and he shrewdly points
24:51
Speaker 1: out that it is the same for Erwin. Erwin planned
24:54
Speaker 1: the coup despite his misgivings and contacted Pixis because he
24:58
Speaker 1: was selfish and willing to put himself over the fate
25:00
Speaker 1: of humanity. After a moment's thought, Erwin admits that his
25:04
Speaker 1: reason is for a childhood dream. Later that evening, Pixis
25:07
Speaker 1: informs Erwin that all of the captured nobles are saying
25:10
Speaker 1: the same thing, that the king has the ability to
25:13
Speaker 1: manipulate the memories of the populace and will be able
25:16
Speaker 1: to destroy the military's coup in one fell swoop if
25:19
Speaker 1: they do not rescue Erin. Pixis unhappily tells Erwin that
25:23
Speaker 1: he is not interested in gambling when humanity's fate like
25:25
Speaker 1: Erwin is admitting that if the government had behaved in
25:28
Speaker 1: a way that indicated that they had humanity's interests in mind,
25:32
Speaker 1: he would have stood with them instead of the coup,
25:34
Speaker 1: as Pixis unhappily muses how long it would take for
25:37
Speaker 1: humans to stop fighting each other. Erwin receives a report
25:40
Speaker 1: that the Scouts are ready to move out and rescue Erin.
25:44
Speaker 1: He orders his soldiers to depart for the Rhese's chapel
25:46
Speaker 1: to rescue Historia and Erin, pausing only to tell Pixis
25:50
Speaker 1: that humans will continue to fight each other until there
25:53
Speaker 1: is only one left alive. On the way to the
25:55
Speaker 1: underground chapel, Erwin and the Scout regiment encounter a giant
25:58
Speaker 1: titan crawling faith down on the ground. It's hot enough
26:02
Speaker 1: to ignite trees around it, and Erwin orders his soldiers
26:05
Speaker 1: to get back and evacuate any nearby civilians. One of
26:08
Speaker 1: the Scouts reports that Squad Levi is nearby. Having successfully
26:12
Speaker 1: rescued Erin and Historia. Erwin rides over to them and
26:15
Speaker 1: finds out that only Hanji is hurt and not too badly.
26:19
Speaker 1: Levi informs Erwin that the giant titan is rod Reees,
26:22
Speaker 1: and the Scouts fall back to ORVD District. In a
26:25
Speaker 1: meeting to discuss a plan for defeating the titan, Erwin
26:28
Speaker 1: announces that they will not be evacuating the civilians. To
26:31
Speaker 1: the horror of the district's soldiers. Carston is enraged by
26:35
Speaker 1: the plan, but Erwin and Hanji explain that Rod is
26:38
Speaker 1: being attracted to the district by its larger population, and
26:41
Speaker 1: that they will need to take advantage of the fact
26:43
Speaker 1: to draw him close enough to fire on him with
26:45
Speaker 1: the wall's artillery. In order to appease Carston, Erwin suggests
26:49
Speaker 1: conducting a mocky evacuation drill to rouse the district's citizens
26:53
Speaker 1: so that they will be ready to evacuate in the
26:55
Speaker 1: event that the Titan is not stopped, which Carston agrees to.
26:59
Speaker 1: The Titan arrives at dawn and the opening cannon volley
27:02
Speaker 1: by the garrison does little to slow Rod despite being
27:05
Speaker 1: the best effort or if it could scrape together, but
27:08
Speaker 1: Erwin still has a strategy. Hanji brings out barrels of gunpowder, ropes,
27:13
Speaker 1: and net to form a blunt weapon like stuffing a
27:16
Speaker 1: sock full of rocks, and Moblet wheels out a barrel
27:19
Speaker 1: of gunpowder strapped to a cart and modified with ODM
27:22
Speaker 1: gear to reel itself into its target. Finding history among
27:25
Speaker 1: the soldiers, present Erwin expresses his concern for her being
27:28
Speaker 1: on the front lines, since she will become Queen if
27:31
Speaker 1: they survive. Undeterred, History asks if he thinks people are
27:34
Speaker 1: naive enough to follow someone who is a ruler only
27:37
Speaker 1: by name, she has her own mission she intends to
27:39
Speaker 1: carry out. Erwin disapproves, but admits that due to his
27:43
Speaker 1: missing arm, he cannot stop her. The titan reaches the
27:46
Speaker 1: wall and Levi's squad manages to blow its head apart
27:49
Speaker 1: using the explosives that Erin's titan is carrying. As large
27:53
Speaker 1: chunks of the titan fly into the air, Erwin calls
27:55
Speaker 1: for his soldiers to finish it off, since the titan
27:58
Speaker 1: will regenerate if the nape is not destroyed. This is
28:00
Speaker 1: eventually done so by Historia. Erwin later attends Historia's coronation,
28:05
Speaker 1: joining the other heads of the military in bowing to
28:07
Speaker 1: her in front of the populace as she's crowned. Erwin, Pixis, Hanji, Levi,
28:12
Speaker 1: and Zachary have a private meeting to discuss the injection
28:15
Speaker 1: that Kenny gave Levi. Hanji explains that analyzing it is
28:19
Speaker 1: impossible because the fluid evaporates in contact with air. Pixis
28:23
Speaker 1: then decides that it must be used for the purpose
28:25
Speaker 1: it was made for, to allow a human to become
28:28
Speaker 1: a Titan and then take the power of the Titans.
28:31
Speaker 1: Erwin decides to entrust the vile to Levi because he
28:34
Speaker 1: is their strongest soldier with the highest chance of survival.
28:37
Speaker 1: Levi will have the freedom to use it based on
28:39
Speaker 1: his judgment of the situation. In the Trost District, the
28:42
Speaker 1: Scout Regiment's head members are having a meeting about Keith
28:45
Speaker 1: Shoddis's revelation. Erwin listens as Hanji explains that Grisha Yeger
28:50
Speaker 1: had the power of the Titans from outside the walls.
28:53
Speaker 1: They discussed why Grisha did not speak of the information
28:55
Speaker 1: he had to the Scout Regiment, but also committed the
28:58
Speaker 1: killing of the Rhees' family the day Wall Maria fell.
29:01
Speaker 1: They theorize about what may be hidden in the basement
29:04
Speaker 1: of Grish's house, as Erwin suggests that it may be
29:06
Speaker 1: the memories of the world that the Rhe's family tried
29:08
Speaker 1: to erase. Irwin then announces that the operation to retake
29:12
Speaker 1: Wal Maria is ready and will commence in two days.
29:16
Speaker 1: When the meeting ends, Levi closes the door behind the
29:18
Speaker 1: other members and begins to persuade Erwin with the threat
29:22
Speaker 1: of breaking his legs to stay behind in Trost District
29:25
Speaker 1: due to the fact that his missing arm would make
29:27
Speaker 1: him tighten food, especially on the front lines. However, Erwin
29:30
Speaker 1: confesses that seeing what is in the basement is more
29:33
Speaker 1: important to him than living and that he must be
29:36
Speaker 1: there to see this moment for humanity. After hearing this,
29:39
Speaker 1: Levi gives up and realizes that he will unfortunately not
29:42
Speaker 1: be able to change the commander's mind. The day of
29:45
Speaker 1: the operation, all soldiers are ready at dawn. Erwin and
29:48
Speaker 1: other high ranking soldiers salute to members of the other
29:51
Speaker 1: branches and head to the wall. However, the soldiers are
29:55
Speaker 1: surprised after seeing that the civilians know about the operation's
29:58
Speaker 1: goals and start to cheer for them them. Erwin, seeing
30:01
Speaker 1: the best send off the Scout Regiment has ever received,
30:04
Speaker 1: cheers a loud scream back at them as he raises
30:07
Speaker 1: his one arm into the air, leaving his subordinate surprise
30:10
Speaker 1: for this unusual reaction. He then orders the start of
30:14
Speaker 1: the operation, and the members of the Scout Regiment start
30:17
Speaker 1: their path towards Chigangshina District as Erwin leads them, yelling
30:20
Speaker 1: for them to once again advance return to Shigangshina arc.
30:25
Speaker 1: Upon arriving in Chigangshina, Erwin commands the scouts to switch
30:29
Speaker 1: to ODM gear and rush the gate, as he himself
30:32
Speaker 1: also switches to it. Erwin is aware that their enemies
30:35
Speaker 1: know about the operation to seal the wall and investigate
30:38
Speaker 1: the basement, so he has one hundred soldiers covered by
30:41
Speaker 1: their hoods rush the gate so the enemy will be
30:43
Speaker 1: unable to know which soldiers Erin until he has sealed
30:46
Speaker 1: the gate. The scouts are wary of the complete lack
30:48
Speaker 1: of Titans in the area, but they choose to continue
30:50
Speaker 1: with the mission anyway, aware that they are playing into
30:53
Speaker 1: the enemy's hands. The scouts stand by and prepare for
30:57
Speaker 1: the closing of the wall as Erin flies up above
30:59
Speaker 1: the gate and prepares to transform. As he's waiting, Arman
31:02
Speaker 1: alert to Erwin to evidence that people have been camping
31:05
Speaker 1: atop the wall recently, and he orders the boy to investigate.
31:08
Speaker 1: Erwin continues to survey the mission's progress after Erin has
31:11
Speaker 1: successfully sealed the hole in the wall. Dirk wearily notes
31:15
Speaker 1: that the enemy has not attacked them yet, suggesting they
31:18
Speaker 1: might be overwhelmed by the scout's numbers, though Erwin is unconvinced.
31:22
Speaker 1: Armin interrupts their conversation to inform them that he's found
31:25
Speaker 1: evidence of a third person camping in Chiganshina, in addition
31:29
Speaker 1: to Rhiner and Berthold, and he and Erwin both deduced
31:32
Speaker 1: that the fact that the warriors were able to dismantle
31:34
Speaker 1: their campsite before the Scouts arrived indicates a fourth assailant
31:38
Speaker 1: who is acting as a lookout. Erwin gives Armin authority
31:41
Speaker 1: over a team of soldiers so that he can search
31:43
Speaker 1: for where their enemies have hidden themselves. Dirk is uncertain
31:47
Speaker 1: about Erwin's decision, but Erwin is confident that Arman will
31:50
Speaker 1: be able to find the enemy. Arman has the idea
31:52
Speaker 1: to search the wall itself for holow points where the
31:55
Speaker 1: warriors could hide inside of it, and although the Scout's
31:58
Speaker 1: balk at the idea, Erwin ordered them to obey. Armine's
32:01
Speaker 1: hunch turns out to be correct, and Rhiner is uncovered
32:04
Speaker 1: inside the wall. As Rhiner transforms into his Titan form,
32:08
Speaker 1: the Beast Titan appears, along with the horde of other
32:10
Speaker 1: Titans from beyond the Northern Gate. The Beast Titan throws
32:14
Speaker 1: a rock which destroys Shiguanshina's inner gate, and Erwin realizes
32:18
Speaker 1: with frustration that the Titan has trapped the Scout's horses outside,
32:22
Speaker 1: making escape into the district impossible. With no means of escape,
32:26
Speaker 1: Erwin declares to his soldiers that only one side is
32:28
Speaker 1: going to survive the ensuing battle, either humans or the Titans.
32:33
Speaker 1: As Rhiner begins climbing the wall, Erwin orders the Scouts
32:35
Speaker 1: to avoid engaging with him. As he surveys the Beast
32:38
Speaker 1: Titan's forces, Erwin notices a quadruple Titan carrying luggage on
32:42
Speaker 1: its back and theorizes that it was the Scout that
32:44
Speaker 1: warned the other warriors of the Scout's arrival. When the
32:47
Speaker 1: Beast Titan's forces begin attacking, Erwin predicts that they will
32:50
Speaker 1: attack the Scout's horses next. In order to completely remove
32:53
Speaker 1: any option of retreat, Erwin orders Dirk, Marlene and their
32:57
Speaker 1: squads to join with Klaus squad in protecting the horse
33:00
Speaker 1: north of the district, Hanji and Levi squad to engage
33:03
Speaker 1: the Armour Titan, and orders Levi to attack the Beast
33:06
Speaker 1: Titan directly and kill it. Erwin also has the idea
33:09
Speaker 1: to use Erin as bait to lure Rhiner away from
33:12
Speaker 1: the Scout's horses, and orders Armen to relay the plan
33:15
Speaker 1: to Hanji. As he observes the battle from atop Wall Maria,
33:18
Speaker 1: Erwin notes the Scout's lack of manpower, prompting him to
33:21
Speaker 1: reflect on the lives lost under his command, being sent
33:25
Speaker 1: to their deaths for his own ambitions of proving his
33:27
Speaker 1: father's theories of the outside world right. Although he feels
33:30
Speaker 1: some guilt, Erwin quickly turns his attention towards Erin's basement
33:34
Speaker 1: and begins trying to work out a way to reach it,
33:36
Speaker 1: even if the Scouts are defeated in battle. When the
33:39
Speaker 1: Beast Titan begins assaulting the Scout regiment to the north
33:42
Speaker 1: with a barrage of stones and boulders, Erwin orders the
33:44
Speaker 1: retreat and joins with them at the base of the wall.
33:47
Speaker 1: Erwin informs Levi of their desperate situation, having lost many
33:50
Speaker 1: of their soldiers as well as their advantage in their battle.
33:53
Speaker 1: As the new recruits descend into panic, Levi asks the
33:56
Speaker 1: commander if he has any more ideas. Seeing the inn
34:00
Speaker 1: sevitable defeat of the Scout regiment, Erwin begins to grieve
34:03
Speaker 1: over the failures of his attempts to learn the truth
34:05
Speaker 1: of the world. He thinks back on the many soldiers
34:08
Speaker 1: that died for the sake of humanity. Levi decides to
34:11
Speaker 1: make the choice of action on Erwin's behalf. Erwin must
34:14
Speaker 1: give up on his dreams and die with the recruits
34:16
Speaker 1: while Levi battles the beast Tite. Despite his dreams coming
34:20
Speaker 1: to a bitter end, Erwin is relieved. Standing before the
34:23
Speaker 1: panicked recruits, Erwin announces their plan to charge head on
34:27
Speaker 1: against the beast Titan, using smoke signals as cover, while
34:30
Speaker 1: Levi moves in from the side to confront him, using
34:33
Speaker 1: the line of titans as a means of clearing the distance.
34:36
Speaker 1: The recruits are distraught at the plan, asking if it's
34:38
Speaker 1: even worth the effort, if they'll die anyway. Erwin admits
34:41
Speaker 1: that the decisions of the recruits to fight or abandon
34:44
Speaker 1: their duties are meaningless, but the lives of the soldiers
34:47
Speaker 1: who will die are not without meaning. He declares that
34:50
Speaker 1: it is the duty of the living to give meaning
34:52
Speaker 1: to the dead, and that they must carry out their
34:54
Speaker 1: duty in a way that the living will give their
34:56
Speaker 1: own deaths meaning the recruits agree to ride forth to
35:00
Speaker 1: their deaths. Using smoke signals as cover, they charge the
35:03
Speaker 1: beast Titan head on with battle cries. Charging into the fray,
35:07
Speaker 1: Erwin urges the soldiers to let their blood boil, to
35:10
Speaker 1: let their voices be heard and fight. Erwin is struck
35:13
Speaker 1: in the hit by a flying stone at the front
35:15
Speaker 1: of the charge and falls off his horse while the
35:18
Speaker 1: remaining recruits carry on with the charge. Erwin manages to
35:21
Speaker 1: survive the hit, but is left unconscious and mortally wounded.
35:26
Speaker 1: He's found by Flock, who carries him back to Shiganshina District.
35:29
Speaker 1: Upon arriving, the realization that Erwin is still alive causes
35:32
Speaker 1: a conflict between the remaining soldiers, who are divided on
35:36
Speaker 1: whether to save him or Armin with the only titan
35:38
Speaker 1: injection that they have. After a scuffle with erin Amikassa,
35:42
Speaker 1: Levi is about to give Erwin the Sierra when he
35:44
Speaker 1: remembers Erwin's desire to give up his dreams and die.
35:47
Speaker 1: With the recruits killed earlier, Levi gives Armin the Sierum instead,
35:51
Speaker 1: allows him to eat Berthold and tells Irwin that there
35:54
Speaker 1: will be a delay in his promise to kill the
35:56
Speaker 1: beast Titan as Erwin dies peacefully. After he wakes up
35:59
Speaker 1: fully healed armand learns that Erwin died so that he
36:02
Speaker 1: could live, Levi explains that it was ultimately him that
36:05
Speaker 1: chose to save Armin. When all is said and done,
36:07
Speaker 1: Erwin's body is laid to rest in an abandoned house,
36:11
Speaker 1: with his cloak draped over his body and flowers set
36:13
Speaker 1: next to the bed where he lays. Did you enjoy
