I mean things are still deeply, deeply fucked up (what the fuck are you doing, Historia?) but at least. Some things. Are sort of going right?

I know that some people will be disappointed about Erwin's death wish going unfulfilled yet again, but I for one I'm happy we got to see one of his plans coming together after so many chapters of plots going nowhere.

The way Erwin and Pixis went about things was more than a little manipulative, but it did bring the point home that the nobles are assholes and therefore made the plan of overthrowing the government as a whole make a lot more sense, and I liked that Hanji emphasizes that the "revolution" isn't just killing a couple nobles but the summa of a lot of individual choices.

Plus I'm happy that the narrative is finally justifying my fondness for Niles Dawk. And the kids partying when they get the news that things went according to plan! Jean fistbumping Marlowe! Aww.

And now I'm beginning to think this chapter is a little hope spot that will be followed by another barrage of sadness and hopelessness and blood and death. Oh well.
