And you are pretty much touching the part where you shouldn't(wink). No, I'm correct, you cannot buy Shingeki no Kyojin right now, because its only just being released for stream and download. When it comes out officially on bluray I will buy it :D Nope, I'm pretty much paying to watch SnK in the internet(and it's legal and official). And you know people can just watch the live in niconico. And the reason you shouldn't touch the part is, you are practically saying 99% of anime communities should just shut down. |

markeo16 said: Everyone's s sayin it was a good episodes. hell no, they spent half the episode having that Pixis guy trying to motivate his men and then the other half was spent thinking of a plan. I know it's good for Pixis' character to be portrayed well so the audience know how he thinks and how he runs things. but really i don't think they need to spend 8 episodes on the 'defense of trost'. This anime seems to be loosing pace and the episodes are starting to get boring. f*** this i'm reading the manga. You'll be just as bored because it's exactly the same. This episode covered exactly 1 chapter of the manga. Also, people can say whatever they want on the internet, because it is the internet. Who on this website is getting paid? Only the developers who collect advertising money. |

I don't quite get why it was supposed to be boring, I'm trying to understand. (Maybe I'm not "shounen" enough...)

DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA (and other irrelevant crap) BEYOND THIS EPISODE. Anyone disregarding that should be considered pretarded. |

I'm saying the people who just sit and watch the stuff without contributing at all, who just criticize every little thing, attempt to damper everyone's opinion and "rally the forces" against a great thing should keep their mouths shut. There is no reason to complain about Attack on Titan, and some of the bad comments its getting on MAL are way too excessive. That pisses me off, because it deserves more from the fans so far. Right but you can't come off as just as big a jackass in responding to them. If you see a criticism that you know is objectively wrong, then respond to it with evidence that they are incorrect. On the other hand if someone says "I don't like this show for x subjective reason" then all you can say is "Well x subjective reason doesn't bother me as much as it bothers you so lets agree to disagree. After all this is just a hobby that I do in my spare time, so if someone else isn't into it as much as I am, it really has no effect on me." |

Sadly, your logic is right, but you're completely ignoring that BOTH compliment and criticism should not be made. So, everyone including haters and fans, except those who paid to watch, must shut up(according to your logic). and some of the bad comments its getting on MAL are way too excessive. welcome to the interwebz |

| I wonder how many people caught on to a verrry big foreshadow in this ep. It was only there for a second, but when it's revealed later it's quite a big twist in the story :P. |

No I was try to say that all people who complain and have something excessively bad to criticize about this series do far should go get eaten by a titan. I wasn't partaining to anything else. |

No I believe that was eluding more to the humans turning on each other to survive. I caught something else. |

No I believe that was eluding more to the humans turning on each other to survive. I caught something else. Actually in the manga that was a lot more clear. Right after Eren said "the titans are not our only enemy" Pixis shows up and is like "We're also racing against time." The implication being that even if Armin's plan isn't perfect, they don't have time to waffle around over what the best plan is, they have to go with whatever they can come up with quickly. |

Archer-san said: Alot of talk and then awesome 3D maneuvering scene! Oh, and the cliffhangar... I loved the sparks that came from Eren's gear. Also, I don't read the manga, so I have no idea why he punched Mikasa. Could be a joke ("Stop following me, I'm not your brother") or a weakness - lack of control over the titan. By the way, three pretards spotted so far. NO HOLY BUDGET WARS IN THIS THREAD Don't you guys have anything else to discuss than stills? |

Shiveron said: I wonder how many people caught on to a verrry big foreshadow in this ep. It was only there for a second, but when it's revealed later it's quite a big twist in the story :P. Oooh :) Let's put it this way - was it something foreshadowed already in the previous episodes in the anime? |
| Great ep! |
zellami said: Oooh :) Let's put it this way - was it something foreshadowed already in the previous episodes in the anime? I am an SnK-anime-only person over here, but these are only a few issues addressed: - Eren's punch at Mikasa - issues with the titan; is it taking over Eren? - Pixis: "Eren is the result of a top-secret project." - Might become a highly-discussed issue later on in the series. Is probably related to "the basement". - "Titans are not our only enemy."- Eren might be killed by crazed folks like Levi if they don't know he's a human titan, thus failing to move the boulder and making humanity suffer more. - "Eren will not be strong enough to lift that boulder in human terms." - another issue which may be lacking attention. - Eren: "I don't know how to activate the titan" - previous episode. Could be important. |

| ^ These are excellent observations and they are all important. Me asking was in the vein that anime could give clues on its own. If what he found concerns later events in the manga, shouldn't be discussed here, but I am curious anyway :] |
| Yo Yo my name is Eren Jeager Now im gonna live as a beggar So this is what happened No spoilers so you can just listen: Everyone thought i was a superman They all had hopes on me, damn!

After the third stave I could hear the typical background voices they do in rap ("Chea, foo' what's uuuuuuuup"). Also, I have a classy limerick to end the day with: A titan was formed by a boy, While using his friends as decoy. "And speaking of which, Let me punch that dumb bitch." It's funny, so Pixis feels joy. No spoilers (I can't guarantee you Mikasa is not dead, still). |
|
| Mikasa is dead! this anime is over |
| another cliffhanger. another week to wait. D: liked the 3d maneuver scene :D |
| Not much happened in this episode. Just like the last one. Hopefully the pace can speed up again to how it was before. |

T3rm1n4t0r2 said: I have a feeling the slow pace is possibly because the studio is planning on making this into a 36-52 episode anime series. They're not, you're an idiot. |
 |
| Ouch at the ending. Ouch. Eren loses control! I didn't expect that though when I saw it, I was like ya, expected. But damn. Damn. |

5layer said: What is this "much" you(and others) are talking about.Not much happened in this episode. Just like the last one. Hopefully the pace can speed up again to how it was before. If you mean that soldiers dying and Titan Eren killing some Titans is "much" but a commander using Eren's power,rallying the troops,stating possible theories for the Titans' origin is "not much happening" then I guess you are just an action freak. |
| I liked this episode, I don't love constant action so this was nice and I was mildly surprised by what Eren did in the end. |
 |
Pleistoros said: Action freakwhole episode was bla bla bla the only cool thing was Eren transformation and that got spoiled by his attack on poor Mikasa wonder what's next episode |
| 5/5 For now I just say that I liked the episode! XD |
 |
| Okay, so I guess Eotens were made by humanity to try to unite everyone... and I guess Eren's dad was working on some sort of secret project... good to know. Also, pacing of this show has officially turned from "Suffering" to "Bad". Every single episode they go over the same exact things... and then they spend the entire episode reiterating... and then they spend two minutes on action/plot, and then we get a cliffhanger. This is classic manipulative story-telling. Who fucking wrote this thing, a middle-schooler? How many fucking times does it have to be drilled into our heads that the soldiers are scared and want to run away? Only the best part is that they never do. Some character always steps up and gives a motivational speech that rallies them just enough to go on for one more time. BADASS!!! But repetitive and cheesy. Good Lord, I GET IT! The soldiers are scared! MOVE ON! Wow! Eren transformed and attacked Mikasa! Holy crap! I wonder what will happen next! What will be the next crazy cliff-hanger that will advance the story forward like one measly inch and is really just there to make sure I don't drop the show because the plot isn't moving anywhere!? I wonder if Mikasa will transform too and we'll get some Titan on Titan action? Or maybe Eren isn't such a useful weapon after all? The super-power of the main hero isn't overpowered because it has a weakness! INSTANT DRAMA! And at the low, low price of two seconds of thinking! Who needs creativity and story-building when you can just take your ideas right out of the "How to Write a Cliche Action Story" book? Well, I guess you could probably skip the chapters called: "Subtlety: Show Don't Tell" and "Tension: Don't Blow Your Load!"; and in fact, you could probably actually skip the whole book and just read: "Manipulative Story-Telling: How to Hide the Fact that You're a Talentless Hack!" Now maybe I'm being a bit harsh (I'm totally being too harsh, get over it), but holy crappola this show could lose a foot-race against a snail even if you gave it a ten-minute head-start. And I haven't even gone into the dialogue. My god, the dialogue. It's written like a bad fan-fiction. On a serious note though, the show is still decent, and the action is definitely top-quality; but action is like... the least important element here. Great action stories all have something in common: action is a supplement to the story: the story and themes are what really drives the movement and makes the action worth it. Without a clear direction and lacking powerful themes... action is meaningless. It's sterile and entirely contrived. There is no flow. You can almost hear the narrator saying: "Now beginning exposition. Exposition complete. Now beginning action sequence. Action sequence complete." I'm really considering moving this thing down to a 6/10. |

| I love how the theory of ending wars by uniting humans against a common enemy was applied to Titans. My faith is restored in this series once again because of this alone. |
