| Another relaxed and explanatory episode, the designs are a little weird to me, but overall, good episode. Who will be the father of Historia's son? (￣～￣;) |

To be fair she wears long sleeves a lot but I just checked back to the beach scene in season 3 part 2 and there's no bandage. Then I looked at the manga panel for that scene and she does have a bandage so I guess the anime majority fucked up with this one. Or maybe Isayama should have done a better job making its importance known if it was present throughout the manga. Eren made it seem like this was some big mystery revealed but I'm pretty sure everybody along with myself just went: "Wait what? Mikasa's been hiding something with a bandage on her wrist?" Anyway it this wasn't planned since like chapter 1 of the manga, Isayama probably should have just come up with a different way to accomplish the same thing. Maybe Mikasa just recognizes the crest, mentions her mother had it on something or another and then the Asian folks deduce that she must be a descendant of that important guy because that's the only way she'd even be on the island. But other than that I did enjoy those scenes with her regardless. I'm happy that there's at least a bit more backstory to her and it even has some plot relevancy. On the other hand it was pretty depressing to see Historia looking miserable as fuck with that pregnancy especially since they just showed her fooling around and smiling 2 minutes earlier. At least she's alive and not a mindless royal blood titan so maybe her situation will improve. Also I'm surprised Mikasa didn't have an explanation for Eren laughing at Sasha's death considering she saw him laughing in a similar way when Hannes died. It's just his way of dealing with sudden loss. He's probably laughing at the absurdness of having all this power now and having come so far since he was a child watching his mother die, yet he's still unable to save one of his friends. I guess maybe it will come up again but regardless I feel like Mikasa should know this? Oh and just lolz that people even feel the need to ask her whether she'd side with Eren considering the only reason she even joined the military was to stay by his side. I mean come on. Her wrist is covered in the manga on the beach. WIT did not include it ,idk why. There are no plot holes on aot You clearly didn't read much of my post since I commented on that as well but yea looks like it was just never in the anime. I am curious how consistent the manga was with it and when it first appeared. |

| Damn, Historia looks so hopeless I thought there must be something that has changed but still can't get out of this situation. lol Man, she deserved a better life.”) |

Harsha1314 said: vegeta8639 said: its really tough to go through the whole thing now lol, anyways, I kinda don't feel it was very consistent even in manga, cause many of the chapters have had quite some modelling and such inconsistencies, like one time a dude is wearing shorts, next chapter he is wearing pants and such.You clearly didn't read much of my post since I commented on that as well but yea looks like it was just never in the anime. I am curious how consistent the manga was with it and when it first appeared. Regardless was it a thing present in the early chapters or did Isayama retcon it in halfway through the story? Maybe if he had made a bigger deal of it like include a scene of a character commenting on the bandage, the anime people would have thought important enough to include. As is it's just weird. |

First there are no plotholes. 2nd the main source material is the manga. So if i read the manga and only the manga there are no plotholes. That is WIT's error for not including that. Plot holes means that the author just asspulls something, which is not the case. And tell me some plot holes on AOT Colossal Titan doesn't have nuke effect in Season 1 when he was appeared right in front of eren? You want more plot holes? Or maybe Eren Titan Berserk Mode crap (anime-only) another crap. I don't care if it was in manga, we are not discussing source materials. Anime Adaptation has many plot holes. |

The colossal titan transformation is something the user can control...so that is not a plothole Nope, it doesn't make sense. When it was stated Explosion could have been controlled? Then why Pieck and Porco didn't transform after they trapped. Pieck stated her transform would hit him. Even Manga & Anime denies that. |

| Another dialogue heavy episode. Seems like each episode goes back in time a bit to enlighten the audience about what happened in between the time-skip. Discussion on the inheritance of Eren's founding titan was discussed although a conclusion has not been reached. Historia gets pregnant...on Valentine's Day...congrats... |

I guess Wit is just at fault for not including it which is a shame since it looks like this should have been foreshadowed years ago. Although her mother tells her right there that it's a family crest so I guess there wasn't much of a mystery other than what it looked like. |

vegeta8639 said: it actually doesn't play much into the plot really, just that it keeps a question if or not mikasa could become a titan, since she has ackerman blood and azumabito blood. Both of bloodlines with uncertain eldian qualities, and stuff like thatWell okay then.

| good episode. i really liked how lighthearted parts of this episode was and the flip between past and present showing how they have changed. |
 |
| I love this lone wolf thing Eren has got going on lol. But I got a bit confused about this episode cause I swear they went back in time without putting an indicator so I got a bit confused. Love this new Eren. Eren has always been my favourite but now he's by far the best. He's so cool now. |
| Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Eren was about to transform inside the cell in front of Hange. She would be dead instantly. Historia in pregnant. I haven't read the two latest chapters so I wonder who her partner is. Only six more episodes to go. |
 |
| Eren seems pretty different from when we last saw him in Season 3, what happened during the 4 year time skip to make him change this way? |
 |
| Having watched the subbed version, it was another great episode. Some of the exchanges between the group were hilarious, especially the dead pan one between Connie and Sasha about inheriting Eren's titan. A nice use of the OST as well during that whole scene. The Mikasa - Hizuru clan link was actually covered way back in the manga, but never in the anime by WiT. I guess at the time they just didn't think it was all that important a detail. The only criticism I'd have of this episode was that some of the dialogue was delivered so quickly during some scenes in the 1st half of the episode, that each scene was never really given enough time to breath, and for the audience to take it all in. Even though MAPPA are covering these recent chapters really well, and slowed the pace right down to accommodate a lot of important information, it still feels like they're rushing through some sequences. Given the amount of dialogue-heavy chapters they are covering though, it'd be difficult to slow it down anymore than they already have. |
| Okay hold up Eren is blushing, wtf?!!! Looks like the Hizurus and somehow Mikasa is actually a descendant of their former Lord, so wow nice job. Also a nice relatability with Historia there, knowing they're both leaders on their own front. And hey Eren smiles!!! Unfortunately the Hizurus are only up for their resources, and if they want to prevent the Rumbling, it's either Historia acquiring the Beast Titan or get pregnant for some unknown reason. Either way, because of some goddamn spoiler that I actually got exposed to, Historia is actually pregnant now, and who knows who's the man who gave the seed, Idk probably... That scene where they were riding the carriage shows how Eren is still close with his friends. At the time when they still resemble their early Survey Corps days, even after a tense talks of acquiring Eren's Titan power, they can't help but all blush (EVEN EREN) because they still care about each other. How I wonder that all of those feelings faded away in a span of a year. And since Eren has a good 4-5 years left, they're now scratching for decisions if they want to initiate the RUMBLING and the person who's going to acquire Eren's powers. Personally I will pick Levi on this job, but the man's a bit old now, spare him his remaining life that he has. Pretty tense episode overall, we got to see more of the events after the Shonganshina Arc, and I'm more curious on the events that led Eren to initiate his actions on Marley. How can he change drastically like that? |

Although her mother tells her right there that it's a family crest so I guess there wasn't much of a mystery other than what it looked like. I mean, WIT never really made a mistake, as the tattoo is in the front of her wrist, which was never shown. The beach scene just showed the back of her wrist (and omitted the wrapping). That's not even true. You can clearly see both sides of her wrist on the beach scene in different frames. Also she's suppose to be actively hiding it so having no bandage on in front of all those people is no good. |

| Another episode giving some background before season 4 and the repercussions of Eren’s actions. It is all very important to show how drastically Eren has changed and also setting up why Historia is pregnant, but I would be lying if it didn’t feel like a lot of information thrown at me. The next episode should be an important one for uncovering Eren’s and Zeke’s motives. |
| Nice they built a railway, Mikasa's embarrassed blush is also a rare sight indeed |

Read between the lines, or do you expect everything in the story to be spoonfeed to you? Or maybe Eren Titan Berserk Mode crap (anime-only) another crap. What is the plothole here? Not saying the series is perfect, and you are right about today episode reveal being a plot hole in the anime, but you are trying way too hard. Manga readers including myself are simple defending the author, its much better if its a studio mistake and not the author mistake, because when anime only view these scenes they will assume its the author mistake and not the studio, so we have to make it be known that's not the case. We want to make sure when anime only point this out we can make it be known that Wit studio fucked up not the author, that is what we really care about. |
