| This episode was kinda slow for my tastes to be honest but at least Armin got some development and hopefully this is the last we see of his inferiority complex. |
| I'm glad Eren questioned his fathers whereabouts. Ever since episode 2, I've wondered where the hell Dr. Jaeger was and thought it was wierd how Eren never thought of him. |

DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Everyone panicking ;o Dat OST again. My ears. I still admire Eren's determination in this series and the promises he has made. Some flashbacks here and there. Oop here comes another cannon shot. I kinda liked Armin's determination this episode as well.  The kid's got some balls. But ya, that bearded commander really pisses me off, even in this episode. Go Armin~ Ohi Pixus. Much cooler commander tbh. |

Production issues and for keeping the pace good? they will probably end it on Chapter 30-31. I'd think that's where they might end too. My only fear is that they'll do a claymore, where once the last 2 eps comes, the anime deviates from the manga and ends completely like crap. Don't jinx it, no but if they do that and there is a second season it'll probably be shit. Tetsurou Araki does have a habit of shit endings (Guilty Crown) but who knows. |

lateraldeath said: That's one of the reasons why people say it's good they are doing a recap. There's no point in doing one(since they're kind of a downer in the ratings) if they aren't planning on conserving chapters, there's no point to conserve any chapters if you're planning on making it an anime only ending.Eniie said: ssjokg said: Does that mean that they are planing for a cliffhanger ending?I see no profit from a recap if they want an original ending.Why would they waste an ep like that instead of throwing some deaths and hack & slash scenes?

| There is always that old geezer that doesn't know what the shit to do when it comes to it. |
| The characters are finally starting to grow on me, especially Eren. It's been taking me a little while to develop an attachment to our main trio. |

| I've been waiting for this episode. Armin dear, you did good. ;_; <3 |
| >.> |
| Today was a bit slow paced, and a bit boring too.....!!! |
| Worst episode yet. I think they've put a little too much emphasis this part of the story compared to the manga. Well whatever it was still enjoyable, but boring compared to the rest. Now things are about to get fun! Oh and.. Eniie said: FUCK!It is confirmed that episode 14 will be recap. ;__; |
 |
| I have been so excited for this episode and it certainly didn't disappoint me at all! Yes it was just talking, as many of my friends complained about when I talked to them, but it was still amazing. It was Armin's first time to truly shine and discover just how important he is in the trio. It was great! I love the music and how it was animated and just wow...I am so glad they did his speech that well! |
| Armin became legendary after this episode |

Valaskjalf said: Does that mean that every single Titan is "piloted" by someone or something ? Because their "weak point" is actually the location where the "pilot" is suppose to be. Not every Titan. How would someone fit in back of the neck of the 3m class Titans. |
| It was ok! Though now as an armys slave, Eren wont have a choise over many things ... Armin showed us some guts too XD |

No, just me? I also noticed this too. Kaji did a great job voicing Eren this episode, his voice being more rough because Eren was tired and drained from using the titan form :) ah yep. Eren is so drained and Kaji always does a great job in voicing him ಥ_ಥ This episode is for Armin and MORE EREN PLS whenwillIteasemyeyeswhenheturnsintotitan AND WTH IS DAT EREN SAYS TO MIKASA, "I'm not your brother or your kids"?? LOL. Mikasa you just got rejected. |

| Lol Sasha and her stomach Bravo for Armin? Already #8? Isn't this too early? Maybe some people scored this based on manga? Well maybe next episode will be more interesting than this :) |

| This reminded me of Dragon Ball Z, where the events of 2 minutes time were showed during the whole 20 minute show. Just shows how overrated this show is, it isn't bad though. |
| Armin deserves a salute! And that captain needs some sleep; look at his eyebags. I like this ep regardless of the self-reflection scenes. While I recognize how necessary they are, I think SnK's reflection scenes drag on for too long that it eats a lot of the episode, which kinda makes it boring for me. Maybe it's too cheesy for a grim anime, or maybe there's too much internal dialogue, I dunno... there's just something that makes me feel unsatisfied. And yeah, that captain needs some sleep, just saying. |

| episode was good, can't wait to see Eren blocking that hole |
TimeTravel_0 said: WOW LOL I was going to log in just to post the exact same thing almost word for word ahahah! The only difference is that I love this show, but this episode was weak..This reminded me of Dragon Ball Z, where the events of 2 minutes time were showed during the whole 20 minute show. Just shows how overrated this show is, it isn't bad though. - We have 15 seconds - We have 20 seconds .. 20 minutes later okay GO! |
|
| I've read the manga, so I know that the next arcs are still epic. Actually I think the next arcs are even better. Though I agree that this and the previous episode are boring. |

| Once again another amazing episode. OST was just magnificent , there's not a single song in this anime that I don't like. Now , will he be able to close the gap or not ? Can't wait for the next episodes as always. |
 |
| I wiped with emotion after Armin's speech. Desperate, yet beautiful and powerful. |
| WTF is this bullshit? Nobody wants to see people talking about crap? Who cares about this shit, man! no one gives a rat's ass on character development or plot progression and all that crap. Where the fuck is my action and gore! I waited a week for this shit! I wanna see people get killed and eaten, I thought this show was mature not talking, feelings shonen bullshit! no one cares about feelings you dumbass! I want blood and guts and fighting like a mature show! Worst show ever, Another week of this homosexual Armin crap and I will drop it! 1/10 |

| Yeah, this episode was boring as fuck, Mikasa and them were there for 3 quarters of the episode discussing how to escape and other random and pointless crap that we already knew. And to make it worse, Erin's Titan form could've done SOMETHING, but no, Erin's Titan didn't do anything and all their planning turned out to be pointless. Erin's Titan practically just instantly died out out of nowhere a few moments after being shown for the first time this episode and Pixi's ended up saving them in the end. And I'll also add dan's pointers to my opinion as well coz it's true too. |

I need to see more of eternal rage guy or damsel in distress turned mary sue or maybe just socially awkward guy being bullied but ofc he must manage to pull through with the power of friendship. Man this development is far too deep for me. |

| Armin did a good job there. And Kitts Verman is a freaking coward. Finally Commander Pixis is here. I expected some more action in this episode. Guess I'll have to wait another week again :( |

And I'll also add dan's pointers to my opinion as well coz it's true too. I'll play the butthurt fanboy role for this one, even if this guy is just being sarcastic. ( I LIKE TO RP!) So essentially you have a fucking attention span of a rodent, since Eren didn't turn into a titan and pretty much go suicidal to get out, only to become an enemy of humans and titans. You also somehow forgot the second plan, which is the one they went with, where the first plan was a 'last resort'. Finally, you fail to see the whole fucking point of Armin's speech to save their asses by hopefully getting through to the army, to spare all of their lives. Which then, thanks to Pixi, who was the only level-headed guy there, saved them. May, I add the whole fucking point to what Armin's plan was to do. Finally, you didn't even comprehend Dan's post, as he was sarcastically talking about how some people are going "hurr durr no action, bad episode"(Hint hint, YOU) when we had some juicy plot progression and character development on Armin's part. -Butthurt mode off.- And that's why you should have sex with me. |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |

Eren says "guize we should escape" while they are hiding in cloud of smoke post-cannon fire, but then he goes on a huge monologue about why they should escape, (we fucking know) analyzing the situation, arguing with his pseudo sister, complaining about daddy, making threats, raging, speculating about the enemy's actions, punching his own titan corpse, philosophizing about his situation, praising the fuck out of that blonde trap weirdo, and planning out what he will do after and where he will go. Oh, and we got some inner-Armin whining too. Fucking terrific. Like "bitch, the smoke's gonna clear; you can't do this shit later?" AND THEN THEY DIDN'T EVEN FUCKING TRY TO ESCAPE? What the fuck was the point of that? That ate up more than half the episode? Plot's moving too slow imo. Plus the voice acting and animation was underwhelming, as usual. There was even a section where Eren was talking, but his lips weren't moving. Tha fuck? |

| Umm eren cameout from the neck of the titan , is that's why their weakpoint is their neck? means that they have to hit the person himself inside the titan inorder to kill it. |

pming said: Btw, more talking in next episode, which should further shock the "SnK is brainless action show" crowd. "JUST LIEK U CANT EXPWAIN HOW U ARMS MOVE"- Eren Jaegar, mad person extraordinaire Yeah, I'd prefer the braindead action. Especially when the voice acting is sub-par. |

I happen to think that Pixis' speech is the most dramatic. Also, I heard that Commie finally gave up on Eoten. Will the fandom forgive them? ... Probably not. They took too long. Did they gave up using random German in GuP? |
