The World the Girl Saw: The Struggle for Trost, Part 2
Armin has serious trouble processing what he just happened. He can't believe that Eren is gone. Some of the other soldiers try to get him to get up and move. Eventually he does. He finds someone else who lost a friend and is trying to revive them. It is pretty clear to Armin that the soldier is dead.
There is a bottleneck at one of the escape routes because a farmer is blocking the passageway with his cart which won't fit. He wants the civilians who are standing around waiting to go through to help him push it through. Mikasa shows up and after killing a Titan in front of the group she intimidates the farmer into moving his cart so that the large group of people can get through.
Mikasa flashes back to her first meeting with Eren. It was the same day that her parents were killed. She was taken by the three men who killed her parents. The planned to sell her into slavery. Eren found them and despite being a child like Mikasa he killed two of them. Mikasa slew the third.
Mikasa still doesn't know that Eren is gone but based on the preview it looks like she is going to find out in the next episode.
Armin seems to be recovering, but slowly. It was interesting to see two instances of humans turning on one another in the same episode. I'm still curious to see how this arc turns out but uncertain as to whether will I continue to watch beyond that point.
