| OMG I LOVE SASHA'S BACKSTORY :0 she's so badass wtf |

| Glad they focused on Sasha this episode. I loved the part when she saved the child from that titan. And what's up with the crippled titan lol Anyways, I'm looking forward to the next episode. I hope I'll get used to the ED soon though haha. |
 “Even if the attention isn’t forever, I’ll keep singing.” |
| I've felt somewhat distant from this show in the past (I liked the first season, it was pretty alright but I think it might be the popularity that sadly ruined this show for me and I know that is a pretty bad reason but I'm not sure tbh) But it has some characters that I really enjoy, like Sasha. Seeing her again, with an actual episode mostly around her sort of touched me? SNK's plot is pretty good overall but I think the highlight for me that is going to keep me watching is seeing some people in the supporting cast that I like. Not a huge fan of like Eren and Levi, again mabey it's the popularities fault who knows that is just my opinion anyways. |
| I think the OP's grown on me :) I didn't think I'd like an episode away from all the action, but this Sasha episode was great! Thought that reading the manga might've ruined it for me, but this episode revived my hype for this show :D |
| Was that really necessary to recap that scene from the first episode again? :c Ayy Potato grill <3 Poor mother :( I hope at least Connie's siblings are alright... |
 |
| Are the events in the first half of the episode (with Eren's group leaving) not concurrent with the events of the second half (with Sasha)? It is night when Eren's group is leaving but daytime when Sasha breaks off her group. |
 |
| maaaan sasha is a sweatheart. |

Rei366 said: No wayyyyyy :000000 damn son, I didn't even think about that.It's as self-explanatory as in the comic when you watch the titan and the house's conditions: Makuro said: Is that Conny's mother?? |

darklord213 said: not filler wasn't slow eithersullynathan said: after 5 years you would expect no filler im asking myself why slow pacingSeries isn't about survival. You got things backwards, Sasha was a joke character until this point. Afterwards, her character becomes serious. yeah, they shouldn't have made the anime at all I'm dead serious, and you should know that since you read the manga too |

It is night when Eren's group is leaving but daytime when Sasha breaks off her group. They are different chapters in the manga but are in the same time. We are watching the same day all over. In the first chapter we started with a messenger informing about the titans breaking the wall at the evening, and then we jump to that... afternoon? when they see the titans, send that messenger and how Mike fights against some titans and what the beast titan makes him. In the second chapter we see what's happening with Sasha while Mike is fighting those titans and the scene with Eren is the next thing after the messenger alerts them. In the third chapter we are going to see what happens at the same time Mike is fighting those titans and Sasha is saving this girl, but from Connie's perspective. |

| @Rei366 It's a shame that so many people seem to think that "plot" equals big revelations shoved down your throat or action scene after action scene, especially when it comes to a series as mystery-oriented as SnK. Every single bit of information and hint to see and understand the bigger picture is important, but make them "easy to miss" and people won't call it plot anymore. With just a bit of thinking and from the elements gathered in this episode only, it's actually fairly easy to make an educated guess on the current situation within Wall Rose (more than one user in this thread made the correct guess after all), but I suppose complaining about allegedly slow pacing and the supporting cast getting necessary development is easier than sitting down and doing some actual theorizing. |

| I like all the focus on the side characters, they are honestly just a lot more interesting than our main protagonists (save for Armin, love Armin). I need some some screentime for my main main Jean, though. |

| That end... srsly wtf was that. Please don't tell me this is another one like Eren and Annie... I want an explanation before they introduce more of those >.< Also I was expecting more death. Sasha got out of that trouble quite easily (luckily. One of the best characters) and Connie was just careless AF. In the first season plenty of people died because of such behavior. |
| The thing that makes this story (anime and manga) such an "overrated" show/manga as the naysayers like to call it is the suspense. You don't know why things are the way they are and unless the story decides to let you in on it you cannot possibly guess what is truly going on. You will have fun or maybe be stressed (like me haha) trying to figure it out but you just gotta wait to see it unfold. And so as much as the naysayers may feel oddly bothered about it, this show lives up to its high rating in every way. The hallmarks of a good story is that it keeps you hooked and on the edge of your seat. I mean how many heart attacks does a person get in the course of the 20 or so minutes of an episode of this show? Even a seemingly "chill" episode like this one that was more about character building had our blood pressure rising. If its good, its good. |
hahaha Naru, also how I felt when I learned how to read all my Kana. Barakamon is everything!!:'D |

| yeaa sasha babyy enjoyed her moments and characterization this eps, and man that titan eating that woman i lowkey thought that was another human eating her trying to stay alive or some shit turned cannibal but its a titan like tf mustve gotten through the gate |
 Sasha episode. Nice. But I don't understand, why this girl was just watching her mother when that titan... And why her mother didn't even scream? |
-Terpsichore- said: Some people react to traumatic events by basically shutting down and becoming paralyzed in fear. Adrenaline can block out pain or the mother may have been a full blown paraplegic meaning she wasn't really feeling the bites. I do think that scene could have been played out better, it felt a contrived and a bit silly with the girl deciding to make a comment about Sasha's manner of speech when her mother was still being eaten alive. I was going to say the same thing, I think the mother was a paraplegic. That's probably what the girl meant by "Everyone in the village knew about her legs." But our explanation only covers why she wasn't screaming in pain. Doesn't explain why she wasn't screaming in terror, but I guess there could be any number of explanations. I think they had the girl comment on Sasha's manner to set up the flashback and to further establish how deeply in shock she was. On a side note, I've thought these first two episodes were pretty good, but it has been a real departure from the last season in the sense that they're spending a ton of time developing some of the more minor characters and both episodes have concentrated almost exclusively on a single character. When you consider that it's only slated for 10 more episodes, I just wonder about the pacing. There have been some of the trademark shock value moments though. For me, the ending to episode one was one of the most disturbing scenes in the series, up there with the part in the Trost arc where Eren saw everybody's corpses in the Titan's stomach. Then in this episode I thought for a moment that it was another human raping and cannibalizing that mother, but thankfully they didn't go that far. |

Sasha wasn't even popular when this chapter was release in the manga from my understanding, she got popular when the anime had aired. Think about it, how could fans influence him from killing her when they didn't know that she was going to die in that chapter? |
| some things were spoiled for me on youtube, but damn this episode brought back some edge to the mystery like wtf is going on |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| sasha is the real mvp!!! |
| Wow, if I didn't love sasha, I probably would have given this episode a 1/5. This is what happens when you read the manga i guess. Not enough titans in this episode for me. |
ALAKTORN said: Rei366 said: @ALAKTORN Doesn't the above qualify as "plot" since it's a story-relevant revelation ? (though I recognize that the action scenes looked like they were crammed in just for the sake of having action even more than to demonstrate a character's resolution) I didn’t figure out that it was Conny’s mother. Hard to call that plot when it’s so easy to miss (and is like 30 seconds out of 24 minutes). This is what's annoying to me. If they had it would have been way more obvious to some people. But I guess the titans eyes and connie's looking identical is a pretty obvious giveaway. |

Is it because she's too small she hasn't learned all that yet? Come on. People react differently. The kid had PTSD pretty much. There are some things that you won't know how to feel or realistically react to unless you experience it yourself. You can easily say that you would run or scream or attack the titan if you were in the situation but everything is easier said than done especially when you're just a bystander :P |

| Damn! Sasha Blouse is so awesome this episode! 5/5! |
 |
| Was this in the manga? Why do I not remember any of it? Sasha going in that house, saving the kid - I don't remember any of it. Only part I remembered was the stuff with Connie at the end. Either way, good episode. |

Finally someone did this XD |
“Even if the attention isn’t forever, I’ll keep singing.” |
| Damn i loved this ep. Sasha was great, i hope the rest of the season will continue to be this good. |
| Armin's always the smart one and its always nice to hear his theories though. Lol you're bringing Nick along for the reinforcements but since he knows more than he's saying it will be a good experience. The irony that Titans have been protecting them from other titans though lol. After all he's seen and been through Eren's behavior on hearing about Nick is to be expected i guess. Sasha and her continuous hunger though lol A side effect of the breaches in the walls will be of course be the fact that more people will be living on someone else's land and changing them to suit their needs. Something thats unavoidable i guess. Sometimes this will also affect their traditional life as well sadly. Still its nice to see Sasha stand up for tradition though. Tradition where you stay isolated or family and connection with the outside world eh. Tough choice really. I always thought that the little girl that remained in the village was weird when i saw her in the manga. She's just as weird now. The people that lived in the village sure were jerks just leaving the child and her mother behind as they knew that her legs were bad. Still Sasha was pretty brave in trying to get the child to safety on foot though. Krista was always the kind one that stood up for people. Its nice to see Sasha get some development as a character though. Its takes guts to take on a titan with just a bow and arrow.Its nice that Sasha and her father were able to meet up again and that her father finally accepts her. Meanwhile at Connie's village. |

| I loved this episode. That moment when the small titan went to crush Sasha had me going "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I already liked Sasha in season 1 and I am happy, that her character got fleshed out. |
You are welcome XD |
| this season is almost as bad as s1 |
 |
| It reminds me Koutetsujou no Kabaneri so much.. |
