I'd say Armin was double-speaking, intentional or not.

He was trying to fool the Female Titan into thinking that she had accidentally killed Eren.

Holy shit that was such an INTENSE episode! The pacing was great and the animation was amazing as always. Jean has changed so much, I really like him a lot now. I absolutely loved the scene with Reiner, Armin and Jean trying to talk down the female titan. The female titan killed the horse so easily like WHOA! Armin said some bullshit which stopped the female titan from killing Jean, way to go Armin! I seriously thought Reiner would die I mean the female titan pretty much crushed him! D-Don't tell me... he has regenerative powers? The OST during that scene was fucking awesome. I'm loving this arc so much already.
Also about the female titan...

May I add something?

The guy, who Armin speaks of is indeed

,

but I don't think she stopped because she didn't know who she had killed (she appeared too soon after the beginning of the mission, she selectively kills the soldiers of the Scouting Legion) - Armin`s bluff blew off her cover as a titan. Would Jean avenge the person she was looking for? Sorry, no. First thing, it really gives Jean an opportunity to escape, second - what Armin says is that she is a murderer and she will be treated as such.

Hmm... I like how they added the clues to what will happen later, but the female titan is a lot more obvious than it was in the manga probably due to the colors. Oh well, great episode nonetheless. Looking good animation-wise.

Although it's a cool episode, this is the first episode that to me, made no sense. The Female Titan spared Armin when she could kill him. She killed the others but somehow spared Armin. To me that makes no sense. That's like a absolute cliche plot twist that was done just to save Armin because he is a main character. I don't like that.

Another awesome action packed episode. I liked how it focused on other members of the cast and not just Eren this time.

The female Titan was awesome yet scary and even if you haven't read the manga, as long as you have a functioning brain cell it's pretty obvious who that is. And there was another hint at another possible Titan/Human. The question is how the hell are they being transformed? I'm looking forward to the big reveal on that further on. I'm really trying to avoid reading anything online on this series because those that have read the manga are not exactly the best at putting spoiler tags.

I'm sure Eren could figure out whether the Kyonyuu Kyojin's Mikasa or not based on the shape, size, and boingness of her bbs and nppls in proportion to her body. =D

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.

Don't worry, man. Everything here is happening for a reason. And the answers are just hiding in plain sight.

Just to help you connect the dots, Armin already realised that the Female Titan was a Titan-shifting human. And the Titan Shifter just happens to look at Armin. What's the only logical reason which would explain why the Female Titan that only kills to protect itself would just turn away from a human who could potentially kill it? Probably something along the lines of 'Oh, it's just Armin.' meaning that the Female Titan knows abour Armin already. Most probably as a human being.

I don't think so. You don't kill a lot of humans but leave one behind like that. It just makes no sense with the reality that was established so far.
Even if there is some kind of bs explanation, that Armin is important to the Titans, that speaks even more nonsense. It ires even more that the killed ones were pretty much side characters but Armin is a main.

Armin was also on verge of death before but was spared now. So technically if he should be dead now, then what's the point of sparing him? None other than that he is main character.

Nope, she is not killing anyone...at least for now. She ignored those 2 guys that tried to protect Armin, she only killed them because of self defense. What killed those squads on the right formation are normal titans.

She knows him as a human and maybe a good acquaintance with him? Then she would at least want to avoid killing him if possible. Lastly, if you watch the episode closely, she only kills those who went for her neck since she would be the one killed instead. You can conclude that she wants to keep the death rate as low as possible.

Best part.


YES! I was actually fooled for once thinking he really died. So I had to rewatch that scene a couple of times for the badassery. And yes nice Titan ass.
Isn't it extremely obvious that she's Annie Leonhart? But why do the Titans seem to obey human Titans like that blondie, and are yet hostile to ones like Eren? Is it the way they transform? A trick? The fact that they only retaliate agasint other Titans that are hostile to them too?

I'm going to pick up the manga one way or the other, the story aside, being as interesting as it may, the action is also top notch. The art is also very nice.

its your thinking dont made sense..before the episode end if you really got whats going you can tell this stuff:

(no spoiler .. it was all in the episode)
-the female titan knows them..hint: jean called eren suicidal idiot.. so when armin shouts "suicidal idiot" and "best friend" the female titan stops meaning that she knows eren .. if you still dont get it...of course if she knows eren she knows all of eren classmate
more like she spared armin maybe she hesitated to kill him

thats what i get from reading that chapter of the manga..in the manga the hair and eyes has no color so i have no clue who she is at that time..but i get that she knows them.. especially the "suicidal idiot" eren

well in the anime its obvious who she is..

There is no way that human can survive such a strong grip. Plus Reiner got out with no injury. I call bullshit or he is also a Titan. Which makes his ''badass'' moment pretty much nonexistent...
