Attack on Titan · Story arc
Marley
Four years later, on the other side of the sea: Marley wins the war against the Mid-East Allied Forces at Fort Slava and prepares to invade Paradis. In Liberio Willy Tybur declares war on the island — and beneath the stage waits Eren.
The story is told from the enemies' point of view: Gabi and Falco, Warrior candidates; Reiner, crushed by guilt; Zeke and Magath, who know the Titans are no longer enough. Eren, under a false name, gets himself admitted to the military hospital. During the festival he transforms, devours the War Hammer and the Survey Corps carries him away by airship. Gabi kills Sasha.
