There's a fuckload of ways the information can be squeezed out of him. Kill his family one by one in front of him. Waterboard him. Drug him. Offer him sex and money. Whatever. Not just give up and take his word for it that he won't tell and bring him along on your cart.

Really wouldn't be difficult to get information out of him
Just spend the best part of a year torturing him

but he did give up the fact that Ymir/Christa is important(it was never made clear as to who he actually meant as the author conveniently cuts off the next panel), a lead that seems to be paying off so far.
well sort of.

it was made blatantly clear hes talking about Christa wasnt it? whats why the 2 spy-titans agreed to kidnap her

Man the anime is taking forever. First half of episode 20 was a long conversation between Mikasa & company on the trees. Last half was the she-titan breaking free.

Although sadly, next season is going to air a at least a year(at the very very very least) from now since there is not enough story material to cover one more season currently.

They could probably make one season (13 ep.) out of + Show Spoiler +the trip to the wall and end with Eren being kidnapped or something.
There's a lot of flashback stuff too as filler.

They've been going slightly faster than the manga chapters I think.
|
I've been really enjoying the pacing of the anime actually. Kinda got hooked and blazed through 16 episodes.
|
fuck my life, waiting for new chapters is agony. and the worst part is that since the series is only "half done", we're not going to be finished until 2015.
|
+ Show Spoiler +They should probably just end the first season after they capture Annie and discover the Titan in the wall. ![[image loading]](http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121220011743/shingekinokyojin/images/thumb/e/e1/Wall_Titan.png/482px-Wall_Titan.png) Immediately end the episode and play the EP after this shot and the anime fans will lose their shit waiting for Season Two.

I know that titans are not supposed to look in perfect human shape but the one in this just seems weird. It's like an early beta version or something like that And the scene where + Show Spoiler +he eats that pregnant woman alive is like the most disturbing one in this manga to me dunno why
|
Lol, only 10 pages.... And the fat guy looks like the rich dude who wanted protection when wall rose was breached.
Also, any1 read the light novels for shingeki no kyojin? I think it's the same thing as the prequel manga, but it's already out in light novel form.

+ Show Spoiler +Funnily the entire series made me genuinely uneasy at first but after a while I stopped caring when they got eaten, the woman was no exception. I'm probably just not in the mood of the manga

omfg only 10 pages.. Had I known I wouldn't have read it!
