When Ymir was telling her story, she said she was roaming around as a mindless Titan for 60 years (not 5). This concludes that she was from a different time and she did not age in while in that form.
I didn't realize how much was revealed in this episode.. looking back, if you take some time to connect everything shown in Ymir's flash back scene there's a whole lot you can figure out. Man, right in our faces.
You should probably start using your airpods when watching this series from now on. This show has lots of bangger OST that made me more emotional and appreciative on this anime
i think reiner just got infatuated with christa. i can’t remember if reiner actually knew anything about her until they revealed her full name. idk someone in the comments can clarify
Everyone gets infatuated with her really. Remember at the beginning of the show when Jean, Armin and Reiner were all amazed by her "godlike" beauty. And Sasha even asked if she was god. Something about Historia seems to give off that feeling. But we don't know what it is.
What happened is when Ymir was caught, they turned her into a titan... As you may not know pure titans can turn back into a human IF the titan can devour a titan shifter... hence, you are now the inheritor of their titan powers... since she watched this episode already i hope i didn't give away any spoiler...
