Vanisher said: PO1SON said: This was an awesome episode I loved it and glad we finally got to see more than 10 seconds of Mikasa. But I got a question though regarding the titan shifters so they basically have to bleed or get injured to transform correct? but the injury must come from them or any random injury? I still haven't got the grasp of this yet. Yeah, any injury work. If that's the case then 2 episodes ago when Reiner was injured by that Titan and was like "is this really the end?" why didn't he transform? he got the injury and his will to live and survive? would this mean he accepted death back then? |
 yeehaw |
Mikasa tho  Another shocking episode at least for me. My mouth is still half opened xD That OST combined with eren's rage was epic at the end :0 |

| This wasn't much of a shock for me just cause I read the manga. Heck I remember when I first thought John was the Armored Titan during the time AoT S1 was airing(before I saw the manga). |
yuratchkka said: Clefairiess said: Ok now I need to understand: 1) the Titans goal 2). What's inside the basement 3). Titans origin. 4) What happened to Annie? I hope it gets revealed this season or else... I'll be disappointed. Unfortunately this season won't answer those questions. They've only adapted 42 chapters, and the basement and titan's origin are only covered in the latest chapters. Beyond volume 21. So yeah, we'll have to be patient, lol. Ah... I just can't stand the cliffhanger and at the same time I don't wanna read the manga. |

keragamming said: You're referring to the language thingy when Reiner was talking with Ymir or to that sort of flashback of someone they knew being eaten by a titan that looked like her? lol, you clearly haven't been paying much attention to Reiner character. You might need to re watch the last 5 episodes of season 2. Nonetheless there's little you can do about the ridiculousness of the twist or its timing. Of course you can rely in future justifications of his character. That's what this anime is always about. |
 |
| How is it possible for Reiner to carve out a message in titan's Annie hand while seeming like he was slashing out instead? Reiner must be an artistic swords men or something lol and. At least we're learning more about annie I was expecting the true identity of the colossal titan to be more sinister and terrifying so seeing that it was berthold's titan form the whole time is honestly underwhelming cause he never gaved off a terrifying presence every time he was on screen and he never offered much dialogue I wasn't expecting Eren to fight the armor titan and and rematched the colossal titan this soon in the series Reiners titan reveal and primary goal is shocking and exciting.like it a lot Bethord's titan reveal is huh? What? Didn't see that coming but it doesn't intrigued me. But I'm glad they're retracing their steps on what was initially going on under the scenes during the female titan arc. Good stuff. |

Well I don't want to dwell too much into spoiler territory, but if you think about the last few chapters (and this one) Reiner is clearly conflicted and a bit crazy, up to the point of almost having a double personality, his "soldier" and his "warrior" persona. Remember in episode 4 when he saved connie, Connie asked Bert if Reiner was always like that (saving others and shit) and Bert told that he used to be more of a warrior but Reiner didn't understand. So even himself was confused about who he really was. So up to that point you could say that he was still playing the part of a "human soldier" |

| OHHH MY GODDD. Did not expect the armoured and colossal titan to be revealed so soon!! I mean, it kind of makes sense to me now but I honestly did not see this coming. That was insane!! And handled very well. DAMN CLIFFHANGER!! |

Shiota_Nagisa_ said:  As someone who hasn't read the Manga, and have mostly avoided any spoilers, I AM SO DONE. I'm in shock and I need help and someone needs to donate me some oxygen because I CANNOT EVEN.  Like yes, my baby Ymir isn't dead.. I was pretty certain she was, which was kinda upsetting, I liked her a lot so I was so bummed last episode, but yeah apparently she's alive... so yay for Ymir... I was uber duber happy :')  Also loved Eren's dig at Hannes. Hannes is just fab :') Eren is like nah man you're always drunk. :') I totally like the banter they have.... I wish Hannes was around more but he's in the Garrison so rip. :')  I was like totally expecting something about Ymir tbf, but yano... I was like ooo interesting whats thIS CERTAINLY NOT WHAT I EXPECTED *SCREAMS*  I kinda laughed? Like I didn't know, but I just laughed because I was just in shock I think? LOL. I was like Reiner are you okay? Have you lost the plot? But damn son... damn. Bertholdt was just like Reiner is cray cray ignore him XDDD I'm shook. I'm sooo shook.  I don't think that's how you start a conversation personally, and I love how Mikasa is lingering, she is totally watching out for Eren. I don't even like her that much but damn she was badass when she turned around and was all like RAWR -slices dem boiz up-  Eren is a cinnamon roll and doesn't want to suspect anyone. I swear he was the same with Annie. Why is he so cute and why does he not like suspecting people? Can he not be so damn adorable yet so violet LOL. He's like omg I can't suspect my friends *see's Titan* DIEEEEEEEEEEEEE (LOL) Okay so maybe he has calmed down but shush okay he's pulling a Bakugou Katsuki.  Every face in this shot made me laugh. Everyone is like pulling a wtf face.  I actually got goosebumps here. Like I just couldn't. I personally was a bit like Eren and didn't really believe them... and then this happened and I was just screaming. I was like spamming everyone in every anime chat I'm in. I was like plEASE WHAT IS THIS.  And yep. I'm literally so done. I just cannot. I need the next episode so fast or I might succumb and read spoilers. I don't want to read Manga spoilers.... but damn cmon I can't wait a week like thiS I CANNOT EVEN. Damn son this series is killing me... It was deffo worth the wait. Send hope to me... and my baby Eren whom is crying.  Literally I wanted to cry when he was crying... like cmon this is my smol bean and he is crying and he just needs a hug and everyone is secretly broken af in this damn show and everyone just needs love, hugs, and life.... I can't even words anymore. Just give everyone some love. Wow you seem excited as fuck xD. I wanna see your comment on each episode from now on ;) |
Paul said: I'm not gonna lie it feels like season 2's reveals are lacking the suspenseful amazement it had when it gave us any information lack when lifted the damn rock. Like Everything that happened that season I was like "OMFG!!! EREN LIFFTED THE FU***** r0cK!!!, but this season if somethings revealed its like "Oh Ymir's a titan." I never did like the reveal, it was far too casual and always just felt out of nowhere. |

Hypeantonio said: I literally love how Bertholdt does nothing in the plot in his human form (even Reiner is more talkative) but his titan form is the main cause of everything. Yeah,the irony is so real.i always felt the identity of the colossal titan belonged to Someone who had more leadership qualities to them or maybe the colussal titan isn't as powerful as we've believed. He looks like a final boss. |
|
| Wait wait wait is Berholdt like the giant titan. Like the one that kicks a hole in the wall in the first episode? O.0 (someone please confirm this) That aside i kind of liked the way they announced it so casually to Eren while the others were already walking away. Let's you feel just as confused too yet very shocked. The ''he is saying that, WAT! did he just said.. wait wut? .... oooooo shiitt!!'' kind of feeling. Also i get the feeling there is something that these hidden titans keeps from knowing they are actually titan and what there mission is. But there is still so much we don't know about this anime. Holy fuck great directing 10/10 episode imo. |

Illyricus said: I mean yeah I guess its cause she looked cool and felt it would've been better for her to be the colossal titan than bertholdt because he's been irrelevant the entire season. sonicfan7474 said: She died like two episodes ago, what development is she going to have?So like did she just not matter at all??

johnyjohny said: Wait wait wait is Berholdt like the giant titan. Like the one that kicks a hole in the wall in the first episode? O.0 (someone please confirm this) He's not "like" the giant titan, he is that exact same titan. As is Reiner the exact same titan that came running through to knock the second wall. For me, even as a manga reader that's up to date with the recent chapter, this was a very well animated episode. The reactions of Eren and Misaka were just as it was in the manga. Armin's reaction was great too, gave off that "i knew it but i can't believe i was right" look. In the manga reveal I was like "wtf Reiner" but after knowing everything and watching that scene adapted, i feel really sorry for him. Great episode. 9/10. favorite bit was |

| HOLY SHIT THAT END WAS AWESOME ! i hope next episode is as good as the last minutes of this one also mikasa op as always lol |
favorite "new girls" from fall <3 (lol i only watched these) ... click sig for older seasons  |

Oh you answered some questions I was curious about. I have one more: are we gonna see some serious Levi action this season? Or even the next season :D Next season would be gold mine for Levi lovers, if it ever happens. |

| The animation getting pretty poor now. |
 |
| Those last few minutes have got to be the greatest anime moments I've ever watched, like damn I'm speechless. As for the reveal, I was already spoiled so whatever, but still I'm not sure whether it was underwhelming or incredibly creative. |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |
| WHAAAT, wtf! I had to read Rainer's explanation 2 times to understand it. And I also screamed: Mikasa, kill him (before he transform) |
| I never expected to like Reiner as much as I currently do. The animation for the colossal titan looked kinda weird at times. |
| HOLY SHIT that was a fantastic episode. The whole lead up to Reiner & Bertholdt being the Armored & Colossal Titan was so freaking intense. Been waiting ages for the reveal & it was so good. The transformations were amazing. That OST was great. Eren so freaking pissed right now. Mikasa going in for the kill was awesome. SO freaking HYPED for next week. |

geralt said: As for the reveal, I was already spoiled so whatever, but still I'm not sure whether it was underwhelming or incredibly creative. My thoughts exactly, at first I thought that the reveal was too anticlimactic and random but on the other hand NO ONE (except manga readers) EXPECTED SOMETHING LIKE THIS. Most people knew that Reiner and Bertholdt are titans so they were expecting a big and dramatic reveal but the anime was just like "lol nope". It was funny and disturbing at the same time. The could've handled it better and foreshadow Reiner's mental breakdown more in previous episodes, but I still kinda like how they trolled people with this random announcement "hey I'm the Armored Titan". I needed to rewind that scene cause I wasn't sure if I understood the subtitles right. |

On_the_Lam said: lol what....you can't be serious rightDefinitely the worst episode this season. What the fuck was that shit? |
| Yeah the revelation is kind of anti-climatic. I didn't expect a long winded drama or anything but to just go and said it is kinda let down. What happened with Annie was absolutely perfect with how they outsmart her, trap her in a situation that forced her to reveal herself, this one revelation is just OK at best. |
 |
| I AM STILL IN SHOCK!!! MY HEART IS RACING SO FAST! REINER WAS/IS A TITAN?!! THE SAME ONE WHO BROKE THE WALL!?! |
| I was kinda worried with the animation in the previous episodes not feeling as dynamic (I even ranted on another thead), but this, THIS IS THE SHIT!!! Gladly, I was wrong with my suspicions. The plot and characters were already well handled, but now all my fears are gone, this was perfect. If any episode would make or break the season, this should be it. Seriously, it's great time to be alive!! I even cried tears of joy D: 10/5 How am I gonna go on with my life until next week??? If anyone complaints about the CGI flags they've been there since season 1. |

| That was single handily the best episode I've seen this year. |
  |
| Cgi was ugly, but that revelation was gold. Did it so casually haha. |
| As a manga reader, I knew it was coming but still felt thrilling! Damn Reiner is still OP!!! |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Mikasa's face 10/10 |
| mods are cucks |
| Wow... speechless... I was scared they were just going to casually let things go when Eren dismissed it, but the tension and the overall atmosphere that followed was epic. |
| Interesting episode. I'm digging the transformation sequence of Eren and Reiner.that cgi of the colossal was horrible though. |
