YHBG ~ Chapter 121 featuring The Humble Servant and Akai

For our chapter 121 discussion we were joined by  The Humble Servant and  Akaikitsu, a member of the SCNK  who is responsible for amazing manga colorings like the one below.

Since Humble and Akai are both very much fans of Eren Jaeger and we are not, the conversation very much became a discussion of Eren’s mindset and morality.
