- Jean Kirschtein: Come on, he wouldn't have transformed unless he knew for sure he could take her this time. He's got this, okay?
- Armin Artlelt: I don't doubt that, but determination alone isn't enough to win a fight. You of all people should know that. It'll take more than that to beat Annie. A lot more.
- Eren Jaeger: Annie, always so cynical, like every little thing around you was pointless. Nothing worth a second look. Every now and then, though, I could see through the act, especially when you were showing off your fighting skills. Maybe hand-to-hand combat didn't count for squat against our final grade back at the academy, but to you, it was a different story all together. Yeah, about that much at least. It was obvious that you were a liar. Fighting's your whole world. But what exactly are you fighting for? What could possibly have been worth all this DEATH AND DESTRUCTION!
