This is despite the fact that Annie acknowledges later being aware that leaving Armin alive would likely lead to him being able to use his wits to identify her as the Female Titan and thus potentially jeopardizing her mission. However, her growing feelings for him caused her to allow him to live.
Instead of killing him outright, the Female Titan -- Annie -- decides to lift his hood and confirm whether or not he was Eren, as that was her objective. Even after the encounter, the Female Titan decides to not kill Armin.
It is most likely that Armin found Annie intriguing due to her history and actions, and that his inability to fully understand her motivations kept him interested.
Since Armin was the Colossal Titan, he did inherit Bertholdt's memories, since he was the previous wielder. There is speculation that Armin only thinks he likes Annie romantically because of inherited feelings from Bertholdt.
When she lost Eren due to the actions of both Mikasa and Levi in the Titan Forest, Annie saw the easiest chance to return to her father was gone and she began visibly crying in her Titan form.
The Female Titan doesnt kill Armin | Attack On Titan
What happens if the Female Titan is eaten by a man?
It is known that the titan forms do not change regardless of who possesses the titan in question. Through this knowledge, it can be a plausible theory that even if a man inherits the Female Titan, the form will not change.
Armin's feeling for Annie are more subtle during Season 1 but it is possible that Armin has had feelings for Annie before her reveal as the Female Titan.
Eren clearly loves Mikasa, and wants to spend his life with her. He loves her so much that he wants to be on her mind even after his thirteen-year lifespan is over. He has hinted at his feelings in the past, so Mikasa has some indication that he has a certain kind of love for her.
Annie Leonhart first shows up in Attack on Titan as a traitor and her relationship with Armin and the rest of the Survey Corps is based on lies. However, the anime's final season shows that a surprising relationship has continued between Armin and Annie, even if it's considerably one-sided.
Secondly since he was the attack Titan there was a high chance he also had the founding Titan in him. Excluding this the reason she kidnapped him was to bring him back to Marley to have a warrior from there eat eren. It's better to have the full manifestation of a Titan than to have it lying dormant in another person.
Annie is genuinely selfish, due to having been abandoned at birth and being used as a tool by everyone she has ever known, even by her adoptive father who wanted a better life for himself through her. She has no interest in protecting strangers due to being unattached to most of humanity to an absurdly high degree.
While Erwin plans to blow away her hardened skin with explosives, Levi tells the Titan that he will make her suffer. In answer, the Titan roars, making nearby Titans come to eat its body. The soldiers tries to stop them, but the Female Titan is finally eaten alive, heavily surprising Erwin.
Suddenly, Armin begins to yell that Jean must avenge "that suicidal blockhead," referring to Eren. He yells that she killed him in her rampage through the formation.
Armin will most likely end up with Annie because he's hopelessly in love with her, but that's if they survive in the end. And if the curse somehow gets lifted, since Annie only has two years left of her life, while Armin has nine. If they survive, I can see them starting a family together and living quietly.
At the Animagic 2014 series panel, producer George Wada confirmed that Ymir and Historia are "indeed a couple", which confirms that Historia in fact has romantic feelings for Ymir.
Why Eren Says He Hates Mikasa in Attack on Titan. Eren hates Mikasa's supposed lack of free will and claims he always hated her for having no freedom. Eren points to Mikasa's headaches as proof her Ackerman bloodline is all that's keeping them together.
Most believed it was the farmer as the Military Police stated, meanwhile the other half believed Eren Jaeger was the father. However, in Chapter 139 the theory was debunked and the Farmer was confirmed the father of Historia's baby.
Floch was entrusted to guard Historia. By telling Floch and Historia his plans, Eren was able to spread word of his intentions. By impregnating Historia, he would protect her and eradicate the Curse of Ymir. These events took place approximately ten months ago, the pregnancy period for Japanese women.
Armin is a masculine name of Ancient Persian and Old German origins to help baby build up their armor. Coming from the name Arminius, it translates to “whole” or “universal,” reminding baby to appreciate each and every aspect of their life.
Historia and Reiner didn't seem to be very close, but Reiner seemed to have an interest for her since season one in the anime and the manga. He brought up multiple times how he wanted to marry her; the first time was when Reiner, Jean, and Armin escaped from the Female Titan's grasp.
Conclusion: Armin's affection for Annie in Attack on Titan appears to be a combination of his own curiosity and admiration for her, as well as the influence of Bertholdt's memories and emotions. While their romantic involvement may not have been foreshadowed, it was not entirely out of the blue either [2].
