I guess many of us, manga readers, consider that panel with Mikasa decapitating Eren and then kissing his head as one of the most controversial looking panel, at least in the recent chapters of Shingeki no Kyojin. Controversial either because of the content it presented, or because it was a bizarre conclusion to already controversial chapter 138. What do you think about Mikasa kissing Eren, I mean Eren's reaction? Did his facial expression looked neutral, or perhaps it looked like as if his facial muscles acted by returning the kiss to Mikasa? The title looks very general, but I wanted to make it like that to avoid spoiling the fact that Mikasa indeed kissed Eren in the penultimate of this manga.

umm, i pretty sure he didn't cause once you head is decapitated you can't control your tongue and i think this was kinda a message telling that only mikasa loved eren and eren not kissing her back (as he was decapitated) shows that this was one sided love but idk i maybe wrong

Look u can't use modern medicine to prove your opinion cause we seen eren alive after the shot on his spine he got from gabi with the sniper, there's no way u could get away with a shot like that one. So modern medicine has no say in this manga. About the kiss, when mikasa cut off his head his eyes was open (rest position of the eyelids) in the scene of the kiss they were close what could mean that he dead in peace and we can see that the last move was his lips acting on a kiss. I think Isiama wants us to make those details, and a try to satisfy all the readers. In the end that's my opinion, And in advance, I am sorry for my bad English.☺️

Maybe he did kiss back. Eren has escaped death, from decapitation in particular, multiple times already. His plot armor is strong enough for a disembodied kiss.

In theory, if he started the movement of his muscles as if he was kissing somebody before being decapitated, then it is possible that after being decapitated the head would still react for a while, still being able to recreate movements of impulses made before decapitation. If we assume that Mikasa's slash was swift and precise and she was able to grab Eren's head fast, within 3 seconds after which the consciousness is lost after decapitation (and therefore any movement is nothing more than twitches), then if this biological aspect is the same in Shingeki no Kyojin as it is in our world, then it is technically possible that Eren had kissed her back before she decapitated him.

i really don’t think isayama would make it so that the last thing that happened to eren after decapitation was an non-consensual kiss lmao. eren and mikasa have loved eachother the whole time, and i interpreted that as a final goodbye between the two after years of never confessing their feelings. making it one sided would be sinister. i think it’s safe to assume he kissed her back, he did love her after all. i don’t think there’s any room for ambiguity with only one chapter to go.

Eren loves Mikasa and the farmer is the father. Isayama already made it very clear during chapter 139.
