Hate to be a killjoy, but I did notice some dodgy animation here and there. That should be fixed in the BD release though.

How could Eren be alive after getting eaten like that? Can someone care to explain without spoiling since I haven't read the manga? I was really confused when even Mikasa was 100% sure Eren's alive. How could he? He got EATEN pretty brutally.

I assume you're referring to the preview? All explained in the next episode. As a matter of fact, it will probably kick off that way. Though if you really want to know, since its not too suprising...



As for the FT's 'brutal' chomping of Eren, well I thought Reiner's 'death' was too real to survive from. Rough, yes. But it doesn't look like he would really die from that. Mind you, he can regenerate.

Epic episode! I get the goosebumps every time I hear that beautiful OST!

Ever since I watched this show, I always thought it was similar to The Walking Dead in the way that no one is safe; anyone can get killed off at any time. I haven't read the manga yet, so I wouldn't know what was going to happen, so don't bite my head off orz.


Finally, someone else who can compare this anime to The Walking Dead. I though I was the only one!

Noooo, Petra ;_; it's so horrible.

I was pretty invested in this episode, I was basically thinking KILL THIS BITCH the whole time after Levi squad got stomped on. I was rooting for Eren but Erwin did say he was an amateur so I couldn't really expect him to win.

Levi and Mikasa next? Anything could happen with this titan, I'm looking forward to it.


"KILL THIS BITCH"
I was thinking that the entire time! I knew the chances were slim...but still...Levi and Mikasa can make it happen next episode. They have to!

Because Petra was the most likeable.

And she was cute.

In the manga I cared more about Auruo because he came off as really quite funny, but in the anime I cared more about Petra.

Pretty much.

Attack on Titan takes a different path other than the cliche route that so many other shounen cling to about always trusting your friends/comrades no matter what. That's one thing that makes this series so great, it's not afraid to do something different.

Just as Levi said, often times in hellish situations you just have to make a decision and live with the consequences since reality can be so unpredictable.

And the animators went out of their way to give Petra the saddest death face ever. Those dicks!

I'm hoping the anime doesn't end before they explain why the FT wants to capture Eren rather than kill him. Unless the titan power users think they can brainwash him to join their cause, whatever that might be, wouldn't it be better to just off him? What information/assets could Eren have that they'd want?

That aside, I'd love to see some (more) destruction mode Levi & Mikasa sword dancing next time, they have friends to revenge >:/

Looks like next ep. will be Mikasa+Levi vs. FT O_o cant wait, might be possibly even better than this one.

FT is not OP she is as skilled as

Add her skill in her human form to a titan form and she is unstoppable . I mean Eren couldnt beat her in human form whats up in your mind thinking he'll beat her in titan form?


and in titan form she can harden her fist that can brake a jaw in 1 blow

so eren is eaten again? christ how useless are u (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻


feels like this is dragging ass. too many fucking flashbacks during that titan fight too


its stupid to say eren is useless..

-he only got 3-5 years of training..(forgot how many years he trained)
-no training in titan form (dont know his titan ability like hardening parts)
and limited experience as a titan
-not even a year of experience in actual combat outside the walls and part of the survey corps
hes just a beginner or a novice

lets say that levi is more than 5 years of experience of combat/skills and surviving ability
if he got killed in one blow.. NOW THATS WHAT YOU CAN USELESS

Pacing at the second half of the episode was way to fast for my taste. But the episode was beast anyways. A bit sad that they didn't make the "Levi sees his squad dead" scene a bit more sadder and dramatic. And the face when FT bit eren out was so much more terrifying in the manga.

The scene the frame rate for the scene wasn't very good at all tbh. I agree, it was much nastier in the manga. Hopefully a BD fix should do the trick.

Oh sht oh sht wow this ep was insane. I accidentally spoiled myself to who the female titan was, but I'm sure most ppl can tell who she is by looking at her. Only 4 more episodes left :/ ... Most ppl are saying there'll be a season 2, but anybody know how long that'll take? How many chapters will this season cover? And what chapter is the manga at currently?

and FINALLY Mikasa and Levi joining together, I've always wanted to see the strongest two working together, I'm looking forward to what they can do, hopefully they will pull Eren out of her stomach >.<"

This episode was just fucking amazing. Once Levi's team told Eren to believe in them I knew they were going to die. Goddamnedd nakama power. Man I was liking Levi's team too. That Titan v. Titan fight was just epic. I got really into it and caught myself almost throwing a random punch in the air. Also Mikasa was badass too. Glad that she showed off some insane manuevers this episode.

Also when they showed Petra's body it hurt just a lil bit inside. She definitely was my fav.

Damn, Eren could have won that but he acted like a raging fool. He had her pinned down and instead of going for the lower neck he punched the face leaving her free space to move her head and avoid it.

Angry Mikasa is not someone you want to cross.

Now the strongest compo. Mikasa and Levi. Let's see what they can do. Hope they have a go at the female Titan. Does he plan on letting her run a little more so she can get even more tired and attack? I really don't get why they he said they should just follow her. If she gets out of the forest then they won't be able to follow her or fight her.

The scene the frame rate for the scene wasn't very good at all tbh. I agree, it was much nastier in the manga. Hopefully a BD fix should do the trick.

I honestly think that this is nitpicking, though. Seeing the amount of things they've done right in this episode are just so high up the scale that not even a 3-minute recap, missing animations and hiccups here and there can topple the episode's overall quality whatsoever.
And I fanboy even more whenever I think that it's even gonna look more amazing in the BDs.

If there's one little detail that basically made this one of the most memorable episodes for me, it's when Levi was passing through his squad mates. At first, I thought to myself that they should've changed the soundtrack into something more mellow and sentimental when Levi was looking at the gruesome deaths of his squadmates.

But then I began to realise how effective using that certain soundtrack actually was in the scene. I felt that using an aggressive song during that part made me imagine Levi's thoughts differently, something along the lines of 'This Female Titan bitch killed my team? All the more reason to destroy Titans and give them the most painful deaths'.' It felt like it was no time to be sentimental, and that his squadmates' deaths are a testament to why he has to continue demolishing Titans even more, no matter how emotionally stricken he is.

That single scene defined a lot of things for me, even if it wasn't intentionally made by the staff to be that way, honestly. Oh, and brilliant episode, btw.
