| Very interesting but a little confusing episode, there definitely is a big focus to make Ymir's character more known |
| I fucking knewwwww KNEEEEEEWWWWWW the titans were created by humans one way or another. Drug? Virus? I dunno, but I knew they were a cause. There were way too many hints in the 1st season about humans becoming monsters to defeat the monsters, humanity being the cause of its own downfall (this was outright said, albeit in different contexts, several times), all that shit. Great infodump episode, wonderful backstory. |

| Pretty strong episode! Some quotes I really liked, "Give me a break.... Die, die, die!!" Eren "Sorry for not remembering." "It's not your fault for forgetting. It was the same for us too." "Eren doesn't seem to remember either." Despite having a lot of flashbacks, this episode has a lot of forward progression even if the narrative time doesn't really move that much forward. It's really nice seeing Ymir's backstory and understanding more how the titan's work. Ymir's chomp was awfully surprising, but I really should have seen it coming. A very sexy chase scene at the end, and of course, horse simulator. |

| Okay, so there was a lot to unpack in this episode. 1. Ymir is too gay to function 2. Titans were former humans 3. Just because you can control your titan transformation now doesn't mean that you could always do it 4. Titans don't age 5. You also won't age if you keep staying in your titan form 6. eating (or killing, ig] humans could be the initial trigger of detransformation We don't know how much gap is between Ymir eating Reiner's friend and her detransformation but the sequence almost suggests that it happened soon after That could explain why titans are so bent out of shape trying to kill humans speaking of which, I wonder how they find humans out of nowhere Do they have a keen sense of smell? Do they just see super far so they can see scouts coming even when they're far away? It's not like there are any "leaders" nearby to tell them where to go |
 |
| Ymir's past T^T She was so cute as a kid as well. |
| Was that a death flag for Hannes? :( |
| There really is something up with Connie's parents and the very similar titan, Eren just going all out even without his hands punching Reiner They showed Ymir's past and its cruelty and how it all went down that was peculiar how it started and ended, Well seeing that Ymir changed when she met Krista really means that she cares for her which is the thing that I liked about her sincerity The Survey Corps caught up and they need to go quick, I didn't expect Ymir to side with Reiner and Bertolt but she does have her own hunch and taking Krista herself, Looks like things are building up to the last battle, That preview when I saw that creepy glare you should know that as well that it's Mikasa that was disturbing. |

| hmm things aren't very much clear yet, especially ymir's age and stuff, eren eating a human etc. it was both kinda funny and sad to see ren fight reiner with no hands, he's so frustrated and angry that he wants to kill reiner even without hands. ymir really does love krsita. we finally gonna see some action next episode. excited. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| Oh boy, that's Ymir decision. She must be so desperate to meet Historia, and Eren once again sleeping like a boss! Alright, looks like i got something wrong with Ymir past. The same fate with Historia actually lying to themself, and how they lived their lifes. Ymir first born as a human, but later getting drugged on from an ass soldier and become an ugly human, just because of certain cult. The aberrant that Ilse found at the ova, must be one of the people from Ymir flashback here. I believe its those blonde dude. Right? Also, judging by the timeline, 60 years ago, not 100 years, i think that syringe actually originated from Reiner people. I also believed Eren father was from there too, or at least their community, and thats why he able to got that drug. So basically the enemy still true to the people of Reiner hometown, however it is. Ymir must be trying to tell Eren about that drug and its people.... But, it can be all wrong above. My assumptions are always too wild here and there. But this is truly intriguing. Survey Corps and their first joint forces trying hard to reach them. The pursuit surely just the beginning.... |

| connie's village SUS and those soldiers are definitely onto something. ymir's story man.. her waking up in that pretty aurora place made me almost tear up |
| More questions arise, met only with vague answers. Love how it just keeps you captivated. "I'll get him back, even if it means trading my life for it!" No pls, Hannes you spoke too soon.... One small detail I really liked and appreciated is Hannes telling one of his fellow garrison members to round up the horses after they go up into the trees with their odm gear. I'm glad that was cleared up, because I would really have been left wondering "wtf happens to the horses after they leave them behind? I'd hate for them to just be wandering around after, horses get abused enough in this anime already!" deadass I just realized that one of my managers at work looks quite a lot like Ymir's titan form I wonder why that Marcel guy didn't titan-ify himself when grabbed by Ymir, about to get eaten. His arms were free, right? Just freely flailing about? I'm pretty sure he could've go and bite his hand real quick before getting eaten for dinner. Did Ymir just grab and eat him really fast, or was Marcel panicking? I wouldn't say he was panicking though, he was supposed to be the most competent out of all them. He was their leader if I remember correctly. Best part of this episode? Krista's (or Christa's, whatever) "huh?" when flying straight into Ymir's mouth. Season one was just straight up HYPE. This is hype as well, but it's more focused on the development surrounding the mystery of the titans, and it also fleshes out side characters in the mean time as well. Lots of people were comparing the two seasons back then; I mean, how could you not? They've waited 4 years for the next instalment to this story. They were bound to compare how it used to be to how it is now. But I'm not going to compare them, they are two parts needed to complete the whole. You can compare two different ENGINES and say which one is better, but who'd compare two different PARTS of an engine to say which one is better? They're both needed to form said engine. I'll be giving this season a 9/10 as well once I'm done re-watching it. As for the decimal part of the score which I give my ratings, well, maybe a 0.1 or two lower than season 1, purely just based on my personal enjoyment. But that might change, these last couple episodes might be even more legendary than I remember. edit: also maybe there was some subtext I missed, but I'm surprised that Ymir actually returned to Reiner and Bertholdt after they let her go to get Christa; couldn't she have easily just betrayed them and stayed with the scouts? Did she think Christa might perhaps be safer going with Reiner and Bertholdt? |

| A plot twist right at the start. Bertholdt said more already, I like this. That means Ymir is a special type of titan, unlike the others like Eren or Reiner. Krista seems pretty important. Bertholdt and Annie? ok looks like I'll have to get used to this couple, although I'd rather Annie paired with Armin or Eren. Sorry Mikasa, I want a love triangle between Jean-Mikasa-Eren-Annie, wouldn't that be great love story? It seems that the last eps will reveal many secrets, unfortunately, I want the magic show to continue until the final season. Again. Amazing talk scene. Now it's Ymir - Reiner. Why do I see them using gear that reminds me of spiderman? The metaphorical stories in AOT once again impressed me. Annie, then Levi, now Ymir. I believe it has real-life connections. So in the old days, turning into a titan was a punishment? But who invented that punishment? I don't want to know right now. Ymir's story is truly painful and moving, as it offers the most painful suffering: loneliness and time. Forget about Eren, the supporting characters are too amazing. OMG too beautiful story, where's my Ymir? I need one Ymir by my side. Looks like Connie isn't afraid of Ymir lol |

| Ah, that's the info I need. So it's about a "Coordinate." So far, they think Eren is the one they're looking for. I thought the Bertolt x Annie ship was just a joke from the parody versions of AoT. lol Interesting reveal. So, that's how they create Titans. As a form of punishment. Or is it only done by that particular city? So, they become feral first, and, given enough time, they eventually turn back into humans with awesome Titan abilities? I guess that solves Ymir's mystery. She has no allegiances, and she only cares about Krista. All she cares about is being wanted by someone. I'm looking forward to the reveal about Reiner & Bertolt. Whoever it is they're serving has declared war of annihilation on humans. I guess it's not difficult to survive as humans outside the walls since Bertolt, Annie, Reiner, Ymir, and many other people could do so for a long time. |
| Genuinely HATE the WORTHLESS characters like Ymir & Bertolt who gets more screen time than they deserve and fail to push a plot of 12-episode season of a Very Important Show, spit on their graves. EDIT: This Comment is added while I made my 1st rewatch of the Whole Series!!! So now I can sympathize with Reiner and Ymir (not goanna tell the same for 'Betot'). I really love Ymir's character, she is the most selfless character throughout the series If I'm not forgetting anyone more worthy, maybe Sasha. Historia's got nothing on them. |
