Attack on Titan: Before the Rumbling (Mermaid Version)
15 parts Complete Mature'Am I making the right choice... helping him?'
Sent to land to adapt to human life three years earlier, Marie, a powerful 20-year-old Semi-Mer, is assigned her second and last task after successfully learning how to disguise her nautical origin with the help of her parents and best friends. With the main reason for her given role purposely concealed from her, she curiously follows along with her given order: to find a man named Eren Jaeger. Intentionally left with little information on him to help enhance her intuition, the conclusion of a generational mission begins.
While hanging out at a festival in Liberio with one of her best friends, Analise, they're briefly called over by the third member of their trio, Alice. Attempting to catch up with Analise, Marie accidentally runs into a soldier and knocks him down-quickly helping him back up and apologizing, she takes a long look at his face when he turns his head to look at her.
Accompanying Analise to visit her father in a hospital later that day, she finds the same soldier in another room and approaches him to apologize once more, striking a small conversation with him before turning around to leave, only for him to abruptly catch her by her arm to stop her, claiming to need her help.
