No way. No.Fucking.Way. Are... are they showing Marco's death next week?! Fuck, I already cried today, I don't want to cry next week AGHHHHHHH
Oh boy, it really looks to me that WIT studio are going there, and episode 34 will show Chapter 77 animated!
I think the biggest clue is that screengrab of Bertolt from the ep. 34 preview. His expression is identical to this one seen in ch. 77; and if you look closely at the background in the episode preview, those clearly look like buildings (similar to those in Trost) rather than a forest of big trees.
I’m still not in agreement about moving this scene so far forward in the anime. I like it’s placement in the manga; it really contributes to Bertolt’s character development in the Return to Shiganshina story arc. However, this scene will make sense in the context of ep. 34.
We’ve already had flashbacks of Marco and Annie this season, so it doesn’t feel out of place to have another flashback with them included again. Additionally, I think they’re including this flashback now to make Reiner’s dissociative disorder more clear to anime-only viewers.
Whilst I’m not a fan of them changing the order of the manga, I still can’t wait for ep. 34. Next week can’t get here soon enough!
I always had a feeling Marco was one of them, aka a shifting titan human.
