What's more, the painter is giving the pictures to certain kids. One of them is I think not by accident named "Tokio", and he was angry about giving picture to other kids. Somehow the painter is creating those Man-Eaters in the future world - the fish with hands? So if he's giving picture to Tokio, monster appears in Tokio, if not, Monster appears somewhere else, like in second episode the bird was given to other child than Tokio. What you guys think? I haven't read the manga so it's just my theory, but can be real.
Although the whole bunch of mysteries, unspoken threads happening in this anime is incredible, I feel like I'm watching first time Attack on Titan. :D
