OMG such an amazing episode! I'm curious how Eren survived. That moment when Mikasa started crying I had a tear in my eye, oh the feels.

I knew that was Eren! It's all in the eyes! Hopefully they'll shed some light on how the f*** that was possible. Great episode 5/5.

Good to see Eren back.

Although, completely predictable that he wasn't really dead, I'm sure 99% of all of us who have seen countless anime knew that.

I'm not sure why some people thought this episode would unleash a shitstorm.

I see nothing to rage about.

Now we just need an explanation as to how Eren was able to survive.

Either way, great episode.

I was a little worried for potato girl for a second there.
I had guessed Eren reincarnated as a titan but instead he hijacked a titan.
Amazing episode even if things are unexplained at the moment.

If you don't like the reason why Eren is still alive you're probably not going to liek the rest of SnK as much.

I don't read the manga so I also guessed that Eren had somehow turned into a titan.

I knew he wasn't dead, and it was very obvious that that titan had something to do with Eren.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see how all of this was possible.

Personally, after watching over 400 anime, nothing really surprises me anymore.

Although, I am intrigued as to how they will explain this.

Wow.. it was so obvious that it was Eren, but I didn't think he would come back as a human. This is like.. controlling a giant humanoid-robot of sorts and guiding it by the strongest emotion/instinct. Like, if you're a bully, you'll enjoy torturing humans when you become a Titan, if you're will is strong, that'll be the basis.. Okay. That much was understood/expected.

Well, I'm glad Eren's back, as a viewer. Plot wise, critically.. I guess it works out because of the "lack of knowledge of the Titans". That itself gives the plot enough leeway to make its own changes as desired. All I'm thinking is how Armin's gonna be a researcher and document these studies, while devising strategies. :)
More critically, it would be interesting to see the transformations of the others who were eaten up. Sure, they may not be easily identifiable, but would be nice to see that. Unless of course Eren did something specifically to gain control of the Titan.

I'm wondering how it would have been if he did not come back. If he remained a Titan. Then again, what would be his lifespan. It was interesting to see that the regeneration is limited too. That a Titan can burn itself out. But how are they made? If Eren gained control of that oldie Titan, he superimposed his identity onto that? He fused with that? Really interested in what the mangaka planned.

On a side note,
I can't believe people are complaining SO MUCH about the stills.. O.o
You can't take the animators and producers for granted... Sure, who doesn't like full animation sequences. But there's always some compromise. Maybe future animations will consider this and keep the animators slaving. Maybe they'll even ask for donations or share market it just to get the ridiculous budgets into account. Hurrah. O.o
Sure, I'd love it too, but you gotta take what's available.
Go buy this series to support them. ^_^ Hopefully they'll put that money to use for their next production.

Remember people! his dad wanted to show him something and he was a "doctor" :) take that into consideration, I haven't read the manga so this is purely speculation.

And remember! where eren was sitting which was at the back of the neck, which is also where they can only get killed if you strike there oohohoh I just thought of that, I'm excited now.

I've only seen about 150 so some stuff does surprise me. It hasn't been completely explained yet, but what they've foreshadowed in the manga isn't bad, in my opinion.

So.. what the hell are stills?

As for the episode, I actually liked it. The only thing I hope for is that the way Eren survived is sorta 1 time only thing, because I don't really want every time an MC gets eaten by a titan they just do some dramatic music and then they'll survive as a raging titan that kicks everyone's asses until he dies, and then they end up unharmed.

Basically a cheap way to animate something and chew up airing time, where I believe it isn't animated and its like well .. still.

I find no reason to complain about the stills, as long as the action scenes are so amazingly good!

Epic episode overall, from the HQ battle to the twist at the end (which I unfortunately had it spoiled for me). As a non-reader, I hope the show continues that way to the very end.

Perfect 5/5

Eren - power
Armin - strategy
Mikasa - skill

This episode shows that teamwork is the MC. Eren may have the power, but without Armin and Mikasa - they'd be all dead - including Eren.

Aside from the separation of brawn, skill and brains - the leadership role goes to someone else outside of the main trio - Jean.

Jean's got the leader role. That's why all the talk with Marco.

Basically, people will better follow a leader with whom they can see eye to eye with and who they know is as weak as they are.

Most people are not like Eren or Mikasa or Armin. Most people are like Jean and Marco. They just want to live and survive.

jean is considered has the potential of becoming a leader. He can make a good decision in a bad situation, and although he felt guilty of using comrade's life for the sake of the team, if he can surprass that, he can be a leader.

Because it will be stated in this series, that a leader must have the courage to sacrifice his comrades for the sake of winning.

The sacrifice thing is more Armin and Irwin, rather than Jean. Jean actually questions the sacrifice tactic, not once but twice.

As a leader, What Jean does best is to find a way to keep his teammates alive.

Moe overdose in this episode since we had moe giant and moe Mikasa face when she found Eren. R.I.P moe giant.
Armin stepped up his game. It seems his gonna be a strategist from now on.
Wow! at the preview. People turning against Eren? Mikasa will need to kick the ass of few people it seems.

People are wrong complaining about the stills. Not a single scene with stills was actually
important to be animated. If they are gonna save a little by putting a few stills then am very happy that the people doing it are smart enough to do it exactly at the scenes that are completely useless to see much animation on and animate what it really needs to be animated.
