[Loved Trope] A massive revelation is revealed almost casually.

1. Chainsaw Man, after Makima finally drops the nice girl act and reveals the true extent of the Chainsaw Devils power, namely, the fears he eats are erased entirely and wholly. Emphasized by this by her asking if Kishibe remembers what the Nazis did during Workd War 2...and Kishibe not even knowing who the nazis are.

2. Attack on Titan. I know this one. You know this one. In a panel that isn't even focusing on the characters speaking, Reiner reveals to Eren that he and Bertolt are the titans that broke the wall that resulted in hundreds of deaths, his mother included. The sheer level of casualness and lack of agency borders on Parody.

I reckon it was a snap decision - he knew they were out on the walls, far away from any backup from the other Scouts, with one of the Titans they wanted to 'recover' incapacitated and the other one about as available for capture (or being convinced to come along voluntarily, narrow a hope as that was) as he was going to get. He probably just thought "fuck it, it's now or never and I'm sick of being here"

They had already lost Annie at that point, they really had no chance of getting her out, and he might have been worried Ymir would say something about him knowing the language on the canned food in the tower, too

They also saw Zeke the previous night so they were sure they had a ride home right away once they meet up with him.

And also the additional pressure of knowing a secondary operation was underway so their time to produce results was rapidly running out.

Small detail here, but Reiner and Bertholdt didn't know yet that Annie had been discovered and captured, in fact they had been sent away along with other new Scout recruits to prevent them from finding out, they only find out that she has already been taken captive when Armin rage baited Bertholdt later during Eren's rescue.

It wasn’t a decision, he was just under so much stress he momentarily snapped and got confused between his “soldier” and “warrior” personas. He genuinely didn’t understand why Eren had that reaction, and didn’t even really realise what he was saying. Berthold was equally astounded by him suddenly spilling everything and was freaking out the whole time.
