Kenny!!!!!

As shown in Ymir's big reveal flashack. Ymir got buried under the ground when she didn't move for years. Her mindless Titan form woke up from them camping nearby and she attacked in order to try and eat one of them like all mindless Titans. Marcel pushed Reiner out of the way and got eaten. Which turned Ymir into a shifter (since Marcel had the Jaws Titan) giving her her humanity back.

There they are having snuck in. And there's Eren, Mikasa, and Armin over there.

Flashback to season 1.

Yeah, personally I never read the manga so I strongly preferred WIT's anime designs even after seeing it.

Reiner playing dirty, Annie calling him out on his bullshit.

The camping site we originally kept flashing back to where Ymir ate Marcel. And the real reason Reiner ended up with it.

I think it's more in between since it still have some of the anime styling and I don't think it looks ugly and at times looks close to the past seasons. But at the same time having loved the look of the past seasons I would have liked to see these older versions get designed by the character designer of S1-3 since they did such a great job on the past seasons and they'd obviously be tweaked compared to these. We'd been watching the anime not the manga for these three seasons so just being closer to the manga is not "better" by default.

Roll call on the Titans Also, cool detail from last week that any ships they've tried to send to Paradis during the couple of years of the time skip have been lost.

Annie's badass Female Titan

There's the three in one shot. Reiner, Bertoldt, and Annie.

Good catch Krillin! But shouldn't have said anything heh.

Hope this helps! Found this condensed simple and helpful timeline of Seasons 1-3 upto the first ep of S4 with no spoilers on Reddit. Once they reach the basement and discover the journals for the two Grisha flashback episodes at the end of Season 3 Part 2 we saw our crew returned to the capital and have their big debriefing and medal ceremony. After that meeting in the season finale Armin narrated and we briefly see the seasons change twice before our crew sets out again and finally reached the sea. That period of seasons changing was about 8-9 months where the Scouts remained in the walls letting Hange's new "executioner from hell" kill Titans day and night, as Armin said. Then they reached the sea at the very end of the last episode of Season 3 Part 2. Between that moment at the sea and premiere of Season 4 Episode 1 is a 3 year timeskip and we pick up as we were introduced to that present day final battle of the current Marley war and the young Eldian "warrior" candidates situations:

Yeah, it does look like that head one ended up with one of their robes somehow.
