In this same episode they bring up how they couldn't even move a relatively small rock, from this you can deduce they don't really possess advanced enough tech to reinforce their walls, how these walls came to be to begin with ...

Too many responses- I appreciate all the info- but a couple points some are overlooking:

1: Poison doesn't have to just 'do damage'- too many hit-point games do that to your thinking. They can make you sick, comatose, delirious- even kill dead. Most concede regeneration after dead usually doesn't work.
2: Anything I said probably was an point to exploit some aspect of more immobilization. All traps, all pointy jabby siege weapons- all of it. Except the explosives- which would be good for slowing it down/finding the regen limit (if one exists).
3: You don't train a bunch of 'privates' and let them loose without a leader. Not unless you don't mind making more 'privates'. Zero combat experience is one thing- but unguided pressure cooker expectations like this should result... well, like this.
I doubt poison would do much. There is more to the titans than just regenerating, human-like beings, and it should become more clear as the series progresses, which is why I won't say anything yet. Traps are great for immobilizing yes, but remember the colossal titan. It degenerated, or "disappeared". Not too sure about it, as I forgot what happens in the manga, but yeah, there is a little thought. Like some people said. They pretty much act as meat shields. The proper leadership is best to be saved for last line of defense, especially since they aren't high in population.

But Seriously, this show has the balls to kill the *MC* so early. SnK could be a masterpiece the way it going. Can't wait for the next episode.

Implying Eren won't come back to life in the next episode.

God I'm so happy with this episode.

Eren lost an arm, and a leg!

Even if he miraculously survive, he's not getting his limbs back, not with those gunpowder-age monkey medicine technology.


Armin's PTSD will go through the roof after witnessing that as well.

Oh god! Eren just got chomped! He got what's coming for him, that's what you get for trying to be a hero, that's what you fucking get for yelling at people all the freaking time!


I'm so happy. If he survive this somehow, maybe he'll finally settle down a bit and use his head instead of his "hate" and screaming teenager attitude.

Holy fladdleflapping fiddlesticks, this was a good episode. Found that my hands were balled into fists and my palms were sweaty the entire time. Have never both feared and hated a set of antagonists this much in an anime.

5/5, officially riding the hype train, next stop: Mikasa flashback episode.
And what if all love is an act of bravery?

Could you look me in the eye and say that you are not afraid?

Wow, so amazing! The action is so cool.

Here I thought that they would really massacre the titans, but it seems not so =(
I don't believe he died, but I don't know anything about what will happen so I'm pretty eager to find out!

Again, amazing action, and the maneuvering gear makes it so unique! I think this may be another favorite anime series of mine by the time of its ending ^^

5/5.

It's a noble act to sacrifice yourself for the sake of others.

What I don't like, is his attitude toward people that are not soldiers. It seem like he really look down on those who don't wish to fight.

I mean, for fuck sake, just because someone speak the truth once, he hit them over the head with a firewood. When his mother try to reason with him, he scream at her face.

Who the fuck do you think provide food, weapon technology, as well as lodging?
Farmers, Engineers/Scientists, Builders


NOT SOLDIERS!

Show some fucking respect to people of different profession. Don't just scoff at those who can't become soldiers/scared to become soldiers as "useless livestock". You're just a soldier, one who fight to protect.

When the war with titan is over, what are you?
Nothing!

Maybe sit at home and brag about how you saved humanity from titans, backed by supplies of Farmer, weapons designed by Engineers, research conducted by Scientist, and politicians that pour funds into your war.

EDIT:
This is where shows like Maou Yuusha of last season shine. Constantly spreading the message of importance of education and knowledge. Showing how soldiers are absolutely unnecessary unless it's desperate.

Instead of testosterone/adrenaline rage filled, scream with anger to solve a problem, being dead-set on ending titans and all that. As well as hating on those that are... Well... Livestock.

Comparisons are based on scanlations and episode 5 with gg subs.

Episode 5 is helluva a faithful adaptation of Vol. 1 Chap. 4 and the first seven pages of Vol. 2 Chap. 5 while adapting the second fight between Jean and Eren (Vol. 1 Chap. 3).

There's a little reordering, the first seven pages of Vol. 2 Chap. 5 was placed around mid-episode 5.

The portion with Commander Pixis is anime-original, but is not a filler nor is there anything in it which will indicate a direction towards a dreaded anime original ending. It just introduces the head of the Garrison (or Wall) Troops and (similar to an anime original scene in episode 2) again highlights out the corruption in the upper echelons of society.

The lecture portion looks as though it's missing info bits about the 3D gear. Not really, since there's close-ups of the gear and how the wire shoots out and rewinds and how the control handles work during Eren's fight with the Colossal Titan. So basically, this information was shown in the anime while told in manga.

The second fight between Jean and Eren which was skipped out in episode 4 is instead here.

Conclusion: Episode 5 is like Episode 2. Very faithful with some expansion. There's some more differences but they're improvements like more action and details during the battle scenes. Really a well-done adaptation.

If I got some things wrong or I missed something significant, please let me know over at the "Comparisons between anime and manga" thread.

The episode discussion thread is moving too fast for me to catch up.

You should know that humanity in Shingeki is on the verge of extinction, meanwhile they don't in Yuusha. And in that kind of world, human is forced to fight even if they don't wish for. Those who don't fight will, eventually die like a livestock.

Its true these people are important as well, but we must know who are the one actually risk their life just to protect people inside the wall.
Anyway, did he look down on those people. I thought he only hate Jean for being honest about how he felt on fighting those Titan.

I know that they have to fight.

But the way he just disregard those who cannot be soldiers as rubbish is wrong in it's own way. There's some major flaw in his attitude when it comes to treating others.

Not to mention he's extremely over confident as a soldier. Driven only by his rage testosterone.

Talking about training just moments ago, immediately lost himself in rage and charge head first toward a titan, alone.

What's wrong with him losing himself?

His whole team have to follow him to back him up and end up becoming titan food.

I'm sure that is not how they're trained to handle titans.

He never said anything like this about civilians and neither is he looking down on non-soldiers. That is just his general attitude to civilians and soldiers alike who are content living inside the walls while dismissing the idea of an outside world entirely because it would be uncomfortable to think about. That's what he means with his livestock-talk.

Did something happen to you to make you hate soldiers? Was your village raided or something?
At any rate, the show pointed out, on episode 1, that it doesn't matter that they're nothing during peacetime, because the fucking war would be over. That's more important. Also, Eren hit the guy because he felt that the Scouting Legion, which went out and risked their lives against harrowing odds, were being under-appreciated. You can scarcely say that he thinks of people who aren't soldiers as "useless livestock," because he stated from the very beginning that he wants the exact opposite. It never even hinted that he doesn't respect farmers [he was one for a time], engineers, and builders; just people who either: join the military for a time and puss out, or people who try to join the police force for the express purpose of living in comfort and safety while others die around them.
Also, strickly speaking, his mom ;_;7 was the one screaming in his face, whereas he yelled at her from at least ten feet away :P

WHAT THE FUCK!!!!

The MAIN CHARACTER just lost an arm and a leg on his first major battle, and he got eaten?

OMFG.

Wtf is going to happen now? This isn't the 21st century where we could give him prosthetic limbs. Shit, how the fuck is he going to even LIVE?!?!!

Wtf wtf wtf.

Awesome ep though. I'm just seriously mindfucked right now.

MIND FUCKED.



From my previous experience with zombie games/biohazard movies. He'll probably gain them back via some medicine technology that help grows limbs like a earthworm.

The dad's injection is definitely something.

Ah, yea that makes sense.

I completely forgot about his dad and I figured they'd have to use some kind of regeneration, and since we learned that the titans regenerate, that could be it.

I was just too mindfucked by the ending that I completely forgot lol.

I think Eren getting eaten is my favorite part of the story so far.
