24. Pride

Complete story — includes the ending

The last of the Wall Titans have left the sight of the walls as the civilians continue taking sides in Eren's course of action. After taking out the pursuing Jaegerists, Hange sets up camp in the forest and stitches up Levi's wounds. While wondering about living isolated in the woods, they receive Eren's message to the Eldians. Later, when Hange and Levi find Pieck and Magath, they offer to ally with them over Levi's goal of killing Zeke. Connie arrives with Falco in Ragako village, where he suggests an awkward task to Falco so he could eventually feed the boy to his immobile Titan mother. Being interrupted by Armin and Gabi, he takes Falco up to the Titan's mouth by force, but the despairing Armin jumps into it instead. He is saved by Connie, who changes his mind about his mother. They all return to Shiganshina where they happen to encounter Annie, who joins them, abandoning Hitch in the process. Meanwhile, Mikasa refuses to join the Jaegerists and recovers her scarf from Louise, whose injuries appear to be fatal. Floch prepares to have himself and Jean execute Yelena and Onyankopon for treason against the Eldian Empire. Onyankopon tries to convince the Jaegerists that massacring the world is insane, but is unsuccessful. He turns to Jean, who is about to shoot him but instead fires four shots into the ground. Answering this, Pieck's Cart Titan form suddenly appears and grabs Jean, Yelena, and Onyankopon in its mouth, taking them to Magath, Levi, and Hange, who have joined forces. At the same time, Jean's shots are also a signal to Mikasa and Connie's group to leave with supplies alongside Annie, Falco, and Gabi. As they leave, Annie notices someone in a window watching them. They then join up with Reiner in their mission to save the world.
