Absolutely loving where they are going on Mikasa's development as a character. Anyway, I haven't spoiled myself as to what is going to happen too much, but all I can say is I hope we get to see plenty more badass titan ;)

Man the writers should have just let Armin Arlert die, I want Eren man! It's just lie letting Luffy die in the place of Buggy.

Judging by the reactions so far, I think it will be more interesting next week, if they show it.

Soundtrack is by Hiroyuki Sawano. That's why it's so awesome. The man's last 3 or 4 anime OSTs have been absolute godly. Ao no Exorcist, Sengoku Basara, Gundam UC, Guilty Crown (didn't like that one much), and now this one. My new favorite composer now

Oh, and major plot twist at the end. Blew my mind. Didn't think the show could get more badass than it already has but it certainly proved me wrong. A week for a new episode and over a month for this soundtrack. Dammit somebody just make a time machine already lol

What an epic episode, wanna see what happens next week regarding that "abnormal" titan and to see if Eren is still alive which I believe so, and if I'm wrong then WOW I'm really impress. So far this series is a 10/10 I'm left speechless after each episode is over. Without a doubt best anime TV series of the season and possibly of the year.

Buggy is comic relief, Armin actually plays an important role and you'll see what that role is soon. Although I'm sure everyone got a big enough hint during the training arc if they listened to the instructor.

This episode was so great, even like the previous episodes. Actually, the plot twists in here and the manga are just making the show really AMAZINNNG.
I am freaking in love with the soundtrack as well, it gives off such an awesome vibe.

The way they put just enough more emotion into Mikasa's character made her even more great. I actually though it was great that they got into fighting again. Also, I'm glad the old Eren showed up, I almost died crying when it was playing the music and it showed him fighting. I was like "SHIT." Both the manga and anime are getting a 10 for me. I'm really looking forward to the next even though it will be a while and same as I read more of the manga.

Wow wow wow. Amazing episode after a weakish episode last week.

The badass Titan should've looked a bit "Dark"(as in, emo), but other than that, this is amazing, great animation(unlike last week's) and great liberty taken by the animators.

Well, in Jewish tradition a pomegranate symbolizes propagation and multiplying, so maybe it was a symbol of how humanity had to survive and keep reproducing.

It wasn't in the manga, so I'm not sure of the meaning but..

Symbolism can mean many things. "Gods Creation" "Reproducing" etc.

Awesome. Just speechless. She was lucky. Like she said, it was like wrath of humanity against the man-eaters. Dies irae: the day of wrath. Yeah if I were the director, I would've used the powerful song from Verdi Requiem for the scene.

I have to say the walls explanation was bullshit, they didn't even start to explain how they actually built the walls in the first place. If the manga went further feel free to enlighten me. Other than that this was a really good episode. I can sense the plot armor incoming, plus I was already spoiled but still it's pretty decent.

So she's thinking of making Babies with Eren if he was alive? Sounds legit :P

Holy FUCK! This show is fucking amazing... The amount of times that I shouted 'holy shit' in this episode was insane. Everyone was pretty much traumatized and really to kill themselves. Some guy even shot himself which was very disturbing. Mikasa acting all strong and hiding her true sadness in front of everyone was very touching. The action and OST blends so fucking well; I seriously can't get enough of those fast-paced flying action scenes. <3

The scene with Mikasa almost giving up on life but kept standing was amazing. I had goosebumps and I almost cried when she remembered about Eren. It just shows her love for Eren is way beyond the normal. Holy SHIT that abnormal Titan. It's Eren, right?! MY GOD, the Titan's scream was insanely awesome and the way he killed those titans. Loved the regeneration scene of his hand too.

Yeah, in my honest opinion this is the best episode! It was so perfect that I felt so many emotions in this one episode and it's only the 7th episode. Now I have to wait another 7 days. The wait is going to kill me.

Did not know that, that would be an appropriate message, though it would mean Mikasa would need to "do it" with someone who is not Eren...

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ARMIN!?

Huh... God's creation? Reproducing seems more likely

Did some googling, found this:http://www.religionfacts.com/christianity/symbols/pomegranate.htm

Apparently, jesus held that in a painting once when he was a child

also: "is a symbol of the resurrection and the hope of eternal life." So that's something


I DID remember it in Greek mythology before, so it can also symbolize sprint?

This show. This freaking show. It's absolutely crazy Every episode always seems better than the last, seriously. Just when I think I can't be more shocked, they pull more rug out from under me again and again. There are so many twists, it's unbelievable. I don't know if I've ever seen a show surprise me so much. Can't wait for more twists.

Also that badass Titan was the coolest thing. That roar sent shivers down my back and I enjoyed every moment of it. Then there was that six pack, dang.

Wrong. It is about vital energy, fertility, abundance and proliferation.
The red juice means the blood. Furthermore, in ancient Egypt the pomegranate juice meant a magic potion that saved the mankind from destruction.

LOL... Well this manga is based off of the manga and is very faithful to it.

That being said, I hope I was not the only one who thought Armin would have been better off as a trap.
