Taltibalti said: Funny you say that with the AoT manga in your favourites. It objectively has a pretty bad art style with inconsistent character design throughout the whole manga. I know. And? It's in the last spot for that reason, and many more. |
Mathi786 said: Emanon30 said: Right. The uninspired soundtrack, which plays "Ashes on the Fire" 9 times out of 10, is also very important, of course. "Animation isn't all there is to an anime" is such a funny phrase. Sounds just as funny as "drawing isn't everything about a manga". Look Buddy u should just stop arguing with these kinda idiots, they don't have enough thought process to understand these kinda things, your just making in vein efforts 1/10 for FMAB 8/10 for Ergo Proxy I see we understand each other. |
| Eren is pretty sadistic |
| Interesting turn of events. If Isayama had this planned the whole time... I feel like this episode will confuse a lot of anime-onlys though. |
| These episodes made me remember why I love AOT. I haven't been this hype watching the show since season 3 part 2. |
| Ahah yeah the story is getting even more interesting but also even better, that travel through all the memories of Grisha and Eren's life was incredible, but especially for the revelations especially with the future seeing power and how Grisha could already see Eren's journey in the future so that's why the mass murder happened with the royals, and damn Grisha begging Zeke to stop Eren while crying was the best scene of this episode |
 |
| I have just loved it, haven't really seen the minutes passing. Only really excited for next ep. |
 |
| I'm fucking shaking. God what a fucking episode! |
 |
| Is it just me or is Zeke animated significantly worse than everyone else? He looks so 2D, flat, or like he’s missing detailing that every other character has? And his mouth movements are animated so badly, like the frame rate is super low compared to everyone else? Eren is a close 2nd, whereas everyone and everything else looks animated like normal, the same as it looked in the final season part 1. Everyone praises the animation but I saw this weird shift in the animation of Zeke and Eren (especially Zeke) as soon as they entered the paths. |

 |
| This was a great chapter in the manga and they did an excellent job adapting it. Voice acting, music, was all on point as far as I'm concerned. I got goosebumps hearing Grisha Yeager saying out loud Shingeki no Kyojin |

| It was emotional but worth it |
 |
| Cannot wait for the next few episodes. MAPPA is doing a great job adapting this. Great episode. |
| ''Oh yes, I'm a professional critic.'' ''Oh yes, I understand the technicalities that you don't.'' ''Oh yes, because of my rooster of 527385623 watched anime, I now have an eye that discerns all imperfections.'' No no no, my little doomers. That's not what it is. What it is, is you thought yourself mature, when in reality, all you are is sticklers. Boring party poopers that rate their anime by pulling out a sheet and subtracting points from the ep as it goes on, thinking that is somehow the reality of the situation. Did this episode have problems? Absolutely. What you fail to understand is the episode is still a 10 with all those imperfections. |

| Ah yes, the famous Eren reverse uno, it was glorious. |
gurrensworld said: Emanon30 said: speaking of manga yes the Quality of a drawing isn’t everything about manga it’s definitely a plus if the art is amazing but it’s more abt the writing and story then anythingRight. The uninspired soundtrack, which plays "Ashes on the Fire" 9 times out of 10, is also very important, of course. "Animation isn't all there is to an anime" is such a funny phrase. Sounds just as funny as "drawing isn't everything about a manga". I think the most important thing is to clarify "movement". I mean not only visual movement, which is made clear, for example, by speed lines, but also emotional movement. A mangaka could have simply published his story in novel form. But he chooses a manga. Why? I think to convey movement. Because he is convinced that the emotions of the characters can only be conveyed through pictures. |

Just rate the season a 1, be more honest that way. 6 is too high for you. All your attempt at a clap back did was further cement your pretentiousness. |

| That last part made my eyes teary, Grisha voice acting was superb 5/5 FMmatron said: Lmao my sister reactions were hilarious man, I kinda envy her for that.I honestly wishey I could've went into this episode blind. I kinda did, since my memories from the chapter are anything but fresh, yet the wow and wtf effect surely would've been insane if I didn't know what to expect. Damn great episode. |
| Not the development I expected, but it's a good surprise. Those episodes are way too short tho lol. Should've waited for it to finish airing... |
WIIXAnd said: So how everyone is already considering that the peak already happened, or they mean just the start of it? The last couple of episodes have been the start of it. |

| Eren halfway "Im the guide now, for this memory lane trip." Zeke surprise faces have equal force as surprised Pikachu. |
 |
| Kinda weird plot hole in this episode, unless it'll be cleared out later. Grisha wants to stop Eren after killing Founder, but after that he transforms young Eren into a titan so that Grisha can get eaten by him. |

I_Am_Freeballing said: Just rate the season a 1, be more honest that way. 6 is too high for you. All your attempt at a clap back did was further cement your pretentiousness. Nah, 6 is good enough. It seems like some people are inherently incapable of understanding that it's possible to like a series, even giving it a 10/10, and still write a long ass essay about its problems! Your ad hominem assumptions (sticklers, boring party poopers) are a very childish overraction. |
| who ever animated grishas freak-out scene at the end, you made this episode for me! the adaptation is quite flat most of the time, character art is off frequently, but they do sneak in some good cuts in every once in a while. Story wise, obviously this is goated, and the soundtrack is also very nice. hyped for future episodes. |

Most of us are really looking forward to Mappa's Chainsaw Man adaption. |
| Wait, was that butterfly (when baby Eren was trying to catch it) the same one in the final frame of the opening theme? Wow. Great episode. I definitely didn't expect something like this. ~and those facial expressions and hand gestures were a beautiful thing to see. Reminded me of Death Note a bit. |

| I loved the episode as usual since it never fails to disappoint me! Even though I have already read the manga this episode still managed to give me a lot of goosebumps! One thing is that this episode made it so emotional with the voice acting and soundtrack in the background which was an absolute masterpiece! Honestly this was an amazing and perfect episode and I am looking forward to next weeks episode as usual! This is definitely a 5/5 episode per usual! |

I'm gonna binge the season with a group of friends in a few weeks. Most of them are anime onlys, so that's gonna be interesting. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Best episode this season by far, MAPPA did a great job capturing the emotions of the characters. Great plot twist as well! Looking forward to the next episode. |

| The good thing about Mappa redrawing the chapter 1 scenes, is that they didnt fucked up the most important part like WIT did, but hey, keep praising WIT, there's still a BIGGER mistake to see, and that one will affect only to anime viewers thanks to WIT and their crappy adaptation Haythemdbara said: just a humble question why was grisha clearly looking at the old eren while addressing to the younger one in this scene? i checked the original scene from the first episode but grisha's face didn't even show   It is shown, as a mistake, for just 1 second, Grisha looks to kid Eren on WIT adaptation, then the scene of the key appears  |

| I'm not english, i'm spanish, so sorry for my mistakes when i write D: I figured out the ending of Shingeki no Kyojin back in 2014 :) |
| What a performance by Hiroshi Tsuchida as Grisha. I have always enjoyed his voice ever since first season, but this episode takes the whole prize. As for the episode, it went by in 5 minutes. There's no fuycking way I watched a 20 minute episode. What an intense atmosphere. Sure, the animation could've been better, but the Rumbling is coming soon. They must save all the budget for that. I have never enjoyed the time travel tidbits, but reddit is there for you if you don't understand this stuff like me. This was a cliffhanger I didn't expect. Next episode cliffhanger will be really annoying, if I'm correct. |
| "Manga readers are annoying, all they do is complain or spoil the anime we discuss in an anime forum. They should really do their whining at manga forums." Stolen from Janethan23. Add in visual novel readers too |

It's coming in here acting surprised people like it and acting like your more critical opinion is somehow more grounded. 6 is perfectly fine, your reasons for 6 aren't. |
