Why did Eren put his team at the forefront of combat? Has he really changed as much as some folks think? And might those apparent changes actually be less surprising and unusual than they first appear?

I liked how they chronologically rearranged some scenes, it makes it better and more understandable, so with this pace, eren and Hanji scene, introduction of kyomi and historia’s pregnancy will be for ep 69(number 69 refers to health, family and idealism)

Note: This comment was actually posted before the episode itself was even released; folks were already looking ahead to S4E10 in the thread for S4E9.
[5, 6, 8, & 9 are the relevant parts of the “Brave Volunteers” reaction which I reference in Part 3 of my reaction to “A Sound Argument.” They contain discussions regarding the Liberio strike, the character development showcased in the flashbacks, and also Eren’s mirror chats. Plus, note is made of the fact that Mikasa is also shown talking to herself.
Part 8 of “The War Hammer Titan” reaction-interview is the one where WolfManiac_ specifically brings up that issue of why Eren is likely acting independently here, so that’s the one I’m singling out. But the surrounding episodes are also worth checking out if you’re interested in general discussion of the Liberio operation as a whole, including that question of possible war crimes.]
This is one of those episodes where the comment section will be open on YouTube, so feel free to sound off there! HOWEVER…if you’re a manga reader, PLEASE make sure to properly mark off and hide from view any Season 4 spoilers you wish to share (that is, use a spoiler warning and make sure the spoiler material itself is below the “read more” tag). I do plan on moderating comments to try and help people avoid getting accidentally spoiled regarding Season 4.
And if you’re a troll who wants to deliberately do that for “fun”? …I’ll respond accordingly.
All right, folks. Shinzou wo sasageyo!!

Content Notice: Regarding content, most of my coverage of Attack on Titan will be in the PG range, unless otherwise noted. PG-13 will be when we get into things like particularly graphic descriptions of violence and suicide.
The show itself is definitely an R/TV-MA series, however, and I would recommend a minimum age of 15 or so. That is chiefly due to violence, mainly of the action type. That aspect gets very intense. There’s some strong language here and there, but not to where it’s really noteworthy, and as far as I can recall, there’s been no graphic nudity or sexual content thus far, though there are certain other content caveats mentioned in my review.
