| Perfect episode. It wasn't a filler at all, morons. |
 |
| HOLY CRAP THIS FILLER. DEM ANIMATIONS. Oh gawd. Too good. Just. Wow. |

| DAT ANIMATION OOOH GOD |
| I found the episode problematic, people acting OOC all over the place. The original Eren from the manga with the "Its a cruel world" "it sure is" and the massive upercut was just so much more epic and character building. The whole drama thing was unnecessary. I would have preferred less flashbacks etc and have the anime end on episode 24. Cut out the trap scene, cut out parts of Jean/Levi/Erwin, cut out parts of Eren in bricks etc, and the season could ahve finished right on a cliffhanger today. Mikasa should have totally been on Eren. I mean she wanted to ditch in Trost and ditched in the forest to save Eren. Tottally out of character for her. I would say she values Eren more than the combined lives of humanity. Nice to see Jean a bit better but seems OOC still for him, at least compared to the manga. Annie was also OOC, not following up on capturing Eren and instead stupidly chasing Armin. Armin was the best performer out of this episode IMO. Hanji was awesome too |

Wae said: Again, it depends on how you define the word "filler". This is the reason I've started using "anime original" instead.Perfect episode. It wasn't a filler at all, morons. |

| If they were suspicious about Annie, then they must have suspicions about the people close to her, like Reiner or Bertolt. Heck, even half of the main cast could be accomplices. Also, that last sentence in the preview, "onward to destroy this entire world" seems intriguing. Cause the only one I see who cause destruction is Annie. |
 |
| The transition between two OST at the end was nice. |

| Dat. Animation. 11/10. Very intense episode, still doesn't beat 21 though. Once again it didn't feel like filler at all, but then again I haven't read the manga yet (will start reading after the next episode). They managed to mix different OST's pretty nicely. Finally the last 7 days of waiting for a new episode, always so unbearable because of those cliffhangers. |

| It makes me sad to know that there's only one episode left. This anime truly is unique among others. BUUUUT. does anyone else wonder what the fuck is in that basement? I hope the producers will be able to explain everything in the last episode without rushing it |

That was my gripe with this episode too that "It sure is" was epic. Still I liked the close up on Mikasa's eye quivering when she was asking if Eren had "certain feelings" that were preventing him from fighting Annie. That and then straight after her words to Annie " I won't let you have Eren". Still if Eren was injured like that Mikasa would be down there helping him straight away. |
| Wow loving all that anime only content, more 3DMG scenes to watch! I like how they added a part with how the military police are pissed at Erwin for defying the King's orders, but none of the people in the MP knows what's going on. Mikasa and Hanji made some creepy expressions in this episode, but none as crazy as Eren's right before changing into titan mode. I'm glad Eren finally came to his senses at the end, it did take him much longer to transform in the anime but I guess it really hit him hard how someone he knew and trained with could be a traitor. They did a great job on the build up to when Eren finally transforms and punches Annie. |
| Ermehgerd. Hanji and Mikasa's crazy eyes! O.O With one episode left... How long of a wait will that take? I can't wait for the end, would it cut to a big cliffhanger (with Annie and Eren's battle?) or end it where everything calms down? (for a moment.) Bwahahahaha |
| Nooo only 1 more episode left :( |
| Great set-up episode, looking forward to the season finale. Epic fight with FT coming up |

But then again, she specifically said she was protecting Eren from Annie when she was fighting her. Dude, you can't fight the truth. Seriously though, do not fight the truth. Anyway, I'd have like it more if Eren remembers Mikasa saying: "The world is a cruel place" while preparing to bite for the last time, while thinking "It sure is", then transform, then fucking send Annie flying 1500 miles. I preferred it this way because it actually shows character development in Eren. Character development isn't always a positive development in a character and here you can see that Eren is slowly starting to lose his humanity. I find it interesting that people barely bring that up when talking about Eren, I'm sort of glad the anime made it clearer. Am the only person noticing that when Mikasa is in trouble, Eren ends up saving her? For all she goes on about him needing saving, it is him that attacks Annie when she has Mikasa down. Also I had a good laugh at Levi saying at least Jean had the balls to go and fight, and then insulting Nile's beard. |

The "fighting other danger" excuse doesn't fly. esp since Armin/Jean could have led her away to trap while Mikasa helps Eren. I agree that it does help but he's in immediate danger of being crushed under rubble while Annie can be handled (albeit not as well) by other people. Maybe Mikasa felt as the next best soldier after Levi, and it was her mistake that injured Levi, she has a duty to take over that role. I still think that would be OOC for her given what we have already seen. Or maybe Mikasa is jealous on Annie and is taking that our on Annie. I wonder though if Levi + Hanji's threats are actually motivating Annie into trying harder to escape? |
| This was just plain epicness from start to end. SnK knows how to mix dialogue and action into the perfect episode. Wow, I'll have to re-watch that a few times I think to pay more attention to all the 3D Gear scenes... The thought of only one episode left makes me incredibly sad, this series has been incredible. |
 |
| Favorite episode of the entire series. Everything was epic, a good amount of characters got their spotlight, and the entire episode highlighted the theme of sacrifice that SNK is known for. Did a mention dat OST and animation. Best thing ever. Hell this might be my favorite episode out of any anime. |
| Episodes like these make me wish this show had more episodes left. :| Well, one more week of waiting it is. |
| Gonna have to start calling Eren "Princess Pinch" from now on. His sucking is getting a little old, but hopefully in the future he will suck less. Good episode though. |

| Another suspenseful cliffhanger leading into another suspenseful cliffhanger. I wish SOMETHING would happen during an episode instead of between episodes. :/ Eren just becomes more and more of a pussy to me... <.< |

Another Mikaere moment as well when Eren pulls them close to transform, Armin doesn't bat and eyelid yet Mikasa gets all flustered... I wonder why? |
| Did Hitch ever find out Annie is the FT? |
 |
| Time to prepare my tears for next week's finale, |
| So, What do you think is on the other side? |
| Eren was annoying this episode and he pace is still slow |
niaxato said: Gonna have to start calling Eren "Princess Pinch" from now on. His sucking is getting a little old, but hopefully in the future he will suck less. Good episode though. Come on? Eren saves everybody at Trost Closes the breach at Trost Has more titan kills than any other trainee Has saved Mikasa more times than she has saved him, yet everybody thinks she is a badass? (she is, but so is Eren) I mean the guy just got told the girl who taught him to fight and was a close friend had murdered his friends and comrades and betrayed him. He then has tonnes of debris dropped on him. So of course he is going to take a little while to get into fighting shape, but when he did... |
| Awesome episode. |
 |
| I was laughing at the military police who were shitting their pants! They thought they were safe, I think that Erwin's plan was to teach them a lesson! Armin is asking Eren to lose his humanity, shit that boy is already crazy any more and he'll end up being a monster through and through. |

Wait, was that moment in episode 9 ? :P Anyway, to them foos who want more episodes, don't worry, Season 2 will come. This is one of those anime that will deserve a fucking season 2, hell, season 3 to end it all. But before that, prepare for a long wait.... well, until WIT decides to animate SnK: Before The Fall, all the VN games Nitroplus is making and some anime expansion content supervised by Isayama-Sensei as a interquel season. Nah, she says it this episode, oh man Mikasa was mad. SnK will have a second season for sure, the Manga is just starting to really heat up too, |
| As much as I love Mikasa and her jealousy, which was portrayed just great this episode, I gotta give it to Hanji this episode, she's still my favorite character. |
