| Finally he put that stupid rock into place! And story is moving forward again, yet very slow (I hate this ever-slow pacing). Climax of this episode came at its half, the rest was battle aftermath. But at least we got no cliffhanger this time. Next time, Shingeki no Recap. This show should rename itself for sure. Let's hope story after that moves a lot faster. |

shanimebib said: Jyupita said: Vokoca said: is this for real? Fuck if I know what this is. Maybe magic or something. Every anime fan should watch Gintama at least once in their lifetime to absorb the meaning of those purple bits! Yeah, someone just told me th same thing. Is it true that there was a whole episode completely devoid of characters because the character animators were on vacation, or something? I’ll have to watch it, if just for that. :D |
| The 3mins of recap at the beginning of this episode feels too much, also a little too much zooming in on Eren's Titan face during his walk. Otherwise, the episode is pretty good, and I wonder if they will really travel dozens of kilometers to Eren's house, in Titan infested land? |

| Three minutes and eight seconds to tell you what happened in the last two episodes. Then next week we'll have a recap episode. I've done a little bit of math, if they continue to give us about one and a half minute recaps at the beginning of each episode plus this roughly twenty minute long recap, we'll end up with nearly one whole hour of footage we get to see at least twice if not three times during these 25 episodes... What the hell. |

| First half was incredibly intense! The OST alongside it was just perfect. |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| Ooh, they made this episode so epic! Especially Levi's appearance. And we get a recap episode next week. (>.<) |

| A really good episode, I screamed when Levi appeared. Loved the end when Erens voice was a bit different cause of the Titan in him. I just love this anime. 5/5 |
 |
| Super nice OST esp the one where they were protecting Eren at all cost while he is bringing the boulder.. Epic episode. Having goosebumps all the time while watching this! |

I just love this anime. 5/5 So far Levi is nothing special in anime. He did nothing worth of remembering and he simply acts like cool badass stereotype. I know his praise is coming from manga but if he is this villainous and snooty on purpose he won't get any of my likes at all. |

Thanks! Been looking for this. Fit the episode perfectly. |

Or run away from situation where he is needed. For reasons of his own. And I haven't read manga so take this just as my guess. But cocky, yes, that's more like it. |

arimpact said: LOL you clearly didn't read my reply. symbv said: lol clearly you don't watch one piece.Budget constraint? Schedule constraint? Staff resource constraint? But the recap is getting worse and worse. Last week the recap lasted 2 minutes; this week it is more than THREE MINUTES!! I never see such long recap episode after episode in an anime series... Let me quote it here: Raito said: One reason why I no longer watch Naruto and Bleach LOL But seriously such long recap is a lot more understandable for long-running anime that lasts 4 cours or more, like Naruto and Bleach....symbv said: I never see such long recap episode after episode in an anime series... You should really see the recaps of some episodes of Naruto and Bleach. |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| omg awesome OST! |
Darklight0303 said: You say that after what he did to the dying soldier a couple eps back? Seriously ? I don't know, I think this is simply the mask he is showing to outside world. Down the inside, he is following his own goals. Remember, he was criminal mastermind before, right? I think he is playing his own game in the background. And for me, his introduction in first part of that episode was done pretty badly. As it stands now, he is just minor character, forgettable - at least in anime (I am not saying that this can't change in future eps). Blame creators for not giving him enough screentime. Right now, there are other characters that are more fleshed out - like Jean, Reiner, Annie or Pixis for example. Sorry, but I simply don't see where all his praise is coming from. |
| Good episode. But there's still some problem with the animation and,above all,with the censorship. Do you think that with the release of the BD the censor will be removed and some scenes reanimated? |

| ALL I KNOWWW IS MY LIFE IS GOOOOOOOOOONE!!! I think the impact of people dying is less severe than it was at the start of the anime because now we can tell who the "nameless" characters are... I knew for example that Jean or that guy with the bald head wouldn't die. But that part where a "nameless" sacrifices himself to save another person from literally the jaws of death was touching; too bad that guy wasn't a main character, otherwise we'd have another Titan transformation. :( |

| So the main plot point in this episode is that Eren FINALLY moves that fucking boulder. Oh and Eren joins a special military squad so he can KILL ALL TITANS - Again. Not the most thrilling of episodes but alright. 4/5 Next week is a... Recap episode... Ahh shit -_- |

They actually do lol, and judging by the situation of episode 4 and 5, they will probably fix this episode :) |

antonn said: Well,I've seen the BD version of Mirai Nikki and they have removed all the pixel censorship and redrawned a lot of scenes. So I think that is not impossible to see an uncensored version of Shingeki no Kyojin,especially considering that currently it's one of the most famous anime.No. They never do that for BD releases. |

| Finally some action! This was the best episode yet! Loved it :D |
 |
| Rivaille XD OMG they won but at a cost Poor Jean, Sasha, and Annie Eren joins the Survey Corp : 0 |
| Not sure if all the people who like Levi have read the manga or are just following the crowd around. Or both, perhaps. |
 |
| At first I thought it's a recap episode. Previous episode summary lasted 5 minutes... 5 minutes of nothing. But hey, at least something happened for the first time since first episode. I hope they will manage to do something again before last episode... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
Jyupita said: Not sure if all the people who like Levi have read the manga or are just following the crowd around. Or both, perhaps. I don't like him very much and I have read the manga. He's a polarizing character. By the end of this next arc you'll at least understand his huge following. |

Rivaille...Criminal mastermind?Playing his own game in the backround?Wears a mask and he is following his goals? For what? World domination? I can understand that you don't even know the character since he only appeared in 2 episodes, but saying all those stuff about him it's kinda ridiculous. I am not saying you should like him or anything but imo it's better to see a character develop through the anime/manga than judge him/her only because you have some thoughts of his ''true'' nature. And he will get all the screentime from episode 14 and onwards. I don't know if you will start to like him but there are various reasons why fans like him as a character and in the new arc, we see why. |

| Awesome episode. Not sure why it started off with a huge recap though, if next week's episode is an entire recap episode, why not save that stuff for next week? :/ Looks like we'll be seeing more of Levi from now on, sweet. |

I can't believe I just read this... It's ok that you don't like the character. Not everyone is going to like the same thing. Whats not ok is how your making things up. Rivaille wasn't a criminal mastermind, he was a thug (but thats debatable seeing as how we still haven't gotten a proper backstory about him) . Also saying that he's plotting and has his own goals is not accurate seeing as how from the first time we see him we learn that he is extremely devoted to mankind and to "him men". While it's true that characters like Jean and Reiner have gotten more development that doesn't mean that Rivaille hasn't been developed either. He has gotten more development from the 8 minutes of screen time he has than from the 20 minutes of screen time the silver haired lady has. Screen time does not equal the amount of development a character has. In fact the very simple action of him grabbing his dying comrades hand even though he is a clean freak leaves more of an impact than a five minute speech on how humanity must unite. |
