| That ending triggered me so BAD |
 |
| fuck me! erin the master of bjj this was sooo good man |
| Mixed feelings for the CGI colossal Titan but the rest was fantastic! |
 |
| I already read the manga and this did not let me down. Freaking awesome. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| Really...Connie doesn't know? They changed into titans right freaking there! And these cliffhangers suck when you have to wait a whole week. I should have just waited and binge watched it all. |
 |
| That was some intense battle going on. |

| Yes! So happy to see Erin in control and using his head rather than raging. Connie..... Makes me sad. I'm still feeling the sting of the betrayal. Reiner, whyyyy! Can we win for once?! Erin had the upper hand and then THAT CLIFFHANGER! WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN! Can't wait to find out. It gets better and better. Bertholt grabbed Ymir and someone else... was the other person they grabbed important or just collateral damage? |

Trigun1127 said: Has no one really brought up the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu displayed in this episode?! Annie showing Eren the standing arm triangle to side-control/arm triangle. I thought, oh its just a fluke there's no way anything else BJJ related could possible happen. Of course, to my surprise, the armored titan traps and rolls Eren, with Eren landing in a beautiful triangle setup and seems to lock up the triangle, as soon as Reiner struggles out Eren switches to an armbar. After that little bout they go back to standing positions. Eren positions himself next to the wall and Reiner rams right into him leavingEren on the ground. Eren knowing he needs to go for a joint lock goes for the double outside ashi (i could be wrong) and then sweeps him using X-Guard. After all this goes down, Reiner goes for the desperate double leg but Eren FREAKING PULLS GUARD INTO A GUILLOTINE GUYS, LIKE SERIOUSLY DID THAT REALLY HAPPEN?! Eren almost completely finishes the fight right there and concludes with him almost snapping the head clean, can we please get a Gracie breakdown. He is a MMA fan. https://perfectackeracy.tumblr.com/post/146507219238/fuku-shuu-interview-isayama-hajime-x-horiguchi |
I'm pretty sure this has never happened in the UFC. |
| marvelous...mikasa felt that she made a mistake by not going for their heads earlier...and here I felt why someone like her would do that on person, one just can't turn against their own people in an instant..the battle was incredible!! not a shred of dissatisfaction |
 |
| I'm so sad this season is only 12 episodes, it's going by so fast and for me personally it's even a bigger step up from season one which was amazing in my opinion, I really hope we get a season three and not after another 4 years :/ |
AidanKieran said: Agreed with few fellas here. While watching, I felt something was off. I felt that there wasn't a coherent flow to it, but I wasn't sure what it was lacking. I only noticed that in the beginning of the episode, the song didn't sound quite epic enough to my ears, It sounded too soft and had anxious tone to it, not something I would have expected in a fight scene. My point is, the choice of song in this episode wasn't to my taste. I needed more epic, stronger, berserk feeling in it. Some times during the episode, they even used more of an idle theme which didn't sound just right to me - a piece where they often use in a scene where nothing happens or people just walking around anxiously, looking each other in the face, doing nothing. I am happy for those who enjoyed the episode wholeheartedly, I wish I could be among you, but my ears wouldn't allow it. LOL I feel like the fight with colossal titan should've been done with a more intense score like the one used when female titan was chasing Levi's squad. This one feels mostly anxious and emotional at start, then slowly starts getting epic when they fly around colossal titan's body. Then it goes full silence. While it's silent, it feels like everything has slowed down and it doesn't feel as intense as it should've been. It feels like they have a lot of time to talk and think while colossal titan is taking his time. Despite anime having barely any extra dialogue/scene afaik, that feels much slower than the manga. It's a little bit of both the use of score and pacing. Also, that grab from the colossal titan felt a little more impactful in the manga as he broke the wall during that grab. Well it doesn't have to follow manga but that scene feels like it could've been done better in a faster and more intense tone. I am still satisfied with this episode due to the overall stunning visuals and the well-executed scene at the end though. |

| Intense fight between the Titans, although Eren no wins yet!! |
| I wonder if the other guy that got eaten by the colossal titan is relevant at all. |
 |
| Great episode! Every expectation I had for this episode after last week was far exceeded and I can't wait to see what happens next! I can't believe they left us with another cliff hanger like that! C'mon man! |
| I shall rule over the realms of anime and manga! Mwahhahahahaha!!! |

| Dude I should probably learn MMA. That fight was awesome. And of course another cliffhanger ending. This show really knows how to keep you wanting more. |
 |
This episode was amazing, great fight. I really hate when the episode always end in the best scene, now we can only wait until next Saturday! |
 |
| Anyone knows where can I find the soundtrack for ep 6 and 7? |
| Great episode! The fight was fun to watch, and the episode was directed well. deadshot222 said: Really...Connie doesn't know? They changed into titans right freaking there! Connie and the others were relatively far away and walking in the other direction when those two transformed. Plus Connie strikes me as the type to be in denial even in the face of such a revelation. |
Pie is delicious. |
JJ1210 said: What chapter is episode 7 in the manga??? Chapter 43 - 44 Lordwen said: Series went full battle shounen mode at last! Nonetheless watching this is quite boring because I'm completely certain they will at the very least escape for plot convenience. We just saw them escape. The colossal titan, blew them away JohnTron said: Attack on titan is a slow paced series in the long run. Reiner and bertolt will tell a bit more of their motives in the next 2 episodes. You won't get all the answers you're looking for till season 4 if the show is following a 12 episode format. Plus they really have no reason to tell Eren their motives anyway.keragamming said: Are you serious? You clearly saw Eren transform last episode, so wasn't that enough hint that this episode will be more about the action? The title for this episode is "close combat" I don't know why you guys keep brining up the fact that it is 12 episodes, You guys seem to forget this is adapting material from a source material that was made years ago, The anime staff have no control over that. 100% Serious. Anime and Manga are two different mediums, sometimes they're done page for page in animated format, sometimes they aren't. I don't really care personally. For the amount of hype the show has received since season one, you cannot look me in the face and tell me this isn't a disappointment to some degree. About season 2's length, I couldn't care less if it's only 12 episodes. I do care about how 12 episode-based shows work though. Season 2 is breaking the formula of the 3 episode plot point in that regard, which is okay. The only thing that's not okay is that it's taking so long to solidify a key point. Last episode paved a nice path for explanation, this episode has been wasted, for me at least. I'm literally only holding on due to the fact that the show is airing, and I'm waiting for some explanation by the end of the show. As of now though, the most boring 22 minutes of my weekend. |

Someone said that that song is a part of Vogel im Kafig. Not sure, though. |

lunarxlunar said: You seem displeased with the obvious fact of calling it a battle shounen in your first comment and in your second one you point out the fact as if I wasn't supposed to know (and hence, my comment xD). I didn't watch the next episode preview either, I never do with any series.lunarxlunar said: Going full action = Shonen ??? K Nonetheless the preview indeed seems to have given out too much. Don't know if this is predictable for anime only viewers. AoT IS shonen btw. It's such an ambiguous "genre". Even Death Note is shonen. |

| Decent episode, they captured the atmosphere quite well. PROPS to them for cycling in Counterattack Mankind, that was beautiful. CGI Colossal though... *shudders* |

deathKnight19 said: keragamming said: I have read somewhere that the anime is taking it's original story and not adapt some chapters from the manga so that there will not be a 3rd season. what do you think?? Feel free to correct me if i am wrong.Great episode, collosall titan cgi wasn't that bad, and it wasn't in cgi all the time. The fight was also great I was a bit worried that they wouldn't adapt two chapters this episode, but the pacing was pretty good. You are wrong, what the author said was he will change the story at some points, just some minor changes, because he didn't like the way he wrote the manga. So the anime will be a better version of the manga technically. |
| lol mikasa possiv of eren form annie |

As the manga reader I'm intrigued. |
| Great action, though the only thing i disliked and not only here is the Battle shounen aspect of get beaten first then win the fight with your determination lol. So far 2nd season is on par with the 1st. |
| Best ep so far imo Shame it ended on a cliffhanger. I know what'll happen of course, but want to read the comments on the event xD Will be fun to read the comments of non manga readers after the next ep. |
 |
| I can totally feel Eren's anger! :D Yuki-sama is really an awesome VA! :D Epic battle indeed! These characters are so badass I don't know what to feel anymore XD Final scene and the way they cut it made me so hyped! XDD |
