Well actually, they left shiganshina first, and since the armour Titan broke wall Maria, they went straight to rose

Badass episode! This show is even better than I imagined it would be. Its going to suck waiting from week to week for the next episodes. That is definitely a good problem to have though.

Another good episode, slower pace than the first one but still really good one.
I hope they do show some of the training and not just make a time skip, but I don't mind either way, as long as it keeps being dark and grim.
Btw, Erens expression at the end was great, filled with anger and desire to get revenge.

Now that ED came out I'm glad it's almost as great as OP.

Another great episode. i love the added scenes involving the armored titan because it shows the power and threat that the titan posseses and also i think it's a good idea for the anime to show the training first because it shows the characters turning into bad asses instead of the SAO route where Kirito just automatically turns into a bad ass instead of showing how he got his skills in the first place

And for the changes made to Mikasa's appearance, i think it's okay for a few aesthetic changes as long they don't change who she is as a character. but if people are still butthurt, just remember at least they didn't make her look like this

Awesome episode. And it ended really fast, I haven't paid attention to the time.

That Titan :o It felt amazing how he broke that wall, and he smiled as though he was showing off.

That was another amazing episode again. It’s not often you watch an anime that has you so engrossed in it from the first episodes. I’m loving it so far and happy that it is doing the manga justice.

It's the same seyuu?!

I don't know if it's a good ideia show the training in the next episode, but if the new scenes are at the same level of quality of this episode, I get relaxed.
What worries me are these flashbacks of Eren. That with his father should happen one year later...

Hah, they're gonna focus on the training, which was only mentioned offscreen in the manga, not to mention that it did not even finish chapter 2 of the manga. But I guess that's good for the pacing of the show.


Not really the manga skips forward to where they have already graduated, and then we got several flashback chapters to show us. The anime is just going to put the events in chronological order.

Could someone please explain to me all these walls stuff and were the survivors escaped through the river... .. is it an inside wall or a whole different empire...? =-="

There are three rings, the outer wall is Wall Maria, the middle wall is Wall Rose and the inner ring is Wall Sina. There are 4 districts attached to each wall (they sort of bulge out) and one of them, in this case Shiganshina, was attacked by the colossal titan. At this point, the titans still haven't breached Wall Maria. People then tried to escape through the gate that led inside Wall Maria. That's when the armored titan broke the gate and Wall Maria was lost. The protagonists eventually got inside Wall Rose along with other refugees and the people who remained between Wall Rose and Wall Maria were probably eaten.

To think how the Titans broke through Shiganshina and to see in this episode a fire breathing tank of a Titan take out the Maria gate just seems like they are unstoppable now.

Looking forward to the sart of the time skip.

Great episode but things got a little weird so me after erens dream sequence. Like, when the hell did erens dad meet up with him to try and inject him with whatever the hell it was and give him the key? Why wasnt mikasa or armin there to witness it? The escape on the boat and the moment eren wakes up arent that far spread apart time wise, you can still see erens hands are injured. I noticed the anime is taking a chronological order from the manga because they time skip to the beginning of their training. But didnt eren say hed apply to the military in one year? Thats a whole lotta growth in one year for anyone. Also mikasa got sexied up a bit, not sure how I feel about that considering how dead she looks in the manga. Still a good episode 9/10

I don't know about the rest if you find it weird but that dream sequence was there to show that it happened right after riding that boat and before that rations part... as for how mikasa and armin wasn't there, think of it that not everything is shown for whatever their reason is... maybe the father asked both armin and mikasa to stay away for a while so he and his son can have a private talk...

Hiyocchi has a really talented voice. I am so happy that she finally have her own single! And her debut single is being used in one of the most epic series ever existed as an ending song. Really happy for her. My all time favorite seiyuu!

Was it just me or did the voice actor for Eren change? It was much darker than the previous one.

I think I prefer Mikasa with slightly shorter hair, like in the manga. The lip gloss (or whatever you call it) didn't really suit her. I'm looking forward to the next few episodes.

Man, the main character is a total brat.


Kaji Yuki's voice will do that to a character.


Whining about about a 10yrs old being normal makes you bigger brats.


Well, he is supposed to be a brat. Even Armin had to apologize for him acting like a brat.

It's best to not think of Eren is the (only) main character. Best think of the main trio as the MC.
Except that the "brat" was right.


When he was challenging the soldiers, he was right. When he was throwing the bread, he was being stupid. When he was accusing of Armin of being livestock, he was being really annoying.

When he was insisting that he'd go to Wall Maria straight away and start fighting titans, he was being suicidal.

Eren isn't always right.
The only thing that pissed me off is that he blamed only the Titans for the 250.000~ dead instead of blaming the higher ups too.I dont see how they couldnt let them live in the "wild"(well they are still inside walls) and feed themselves.What hopes did they exactly had against the titans when the vast majority of them werent trained or armed?

made me hate the higher ups more and more... that was like performing a MASS SUICIDE the heck even most of their skilled soldiers mostly die and now they are sending 250,000 inexperienced amateurs to battle... just a pathetic easy-way-out solution for their food shortage problem

made me doubt Eren's reasoning at that part too as he only blamed the Titans

It's not like he was absolutely right in everything else but from my POV both Armin and Eren cancel each other out.Eren speaks purely on emotion(that is annoying) and Armin tries to calm him down but nobody is absolutely wrong or right.It is logical for him to want to kill the titans even as a 12yrs old and get angry to those that try to stop him and it is logical for Armin to try to stop him.

And really if Armin was the #1 MC and Eren #2 (and maybe with switched voices) the "annoying" part would be directed to Armin for being a pussy/weakling.How I know that?This is MAL.

He is a kid; he is going to blame the Titans and the Titans alone. When he gets older he is more likely to blame the higher ups for their actions. Even so, it’s a wa and the Titans are killing humans, sending an army to defeat them on the face of it to a child looks like a good idea. If the Titans never existed, the army wouldn't have needed to be sent out in the first place.

Also, sitting in walls for years and waiting for your doom is not a viable option either.

Everyone is trying to survive, at least while they can.
The government took advantage from despair and fear of people to sacrifice them. If not, they would be eaten anyway, and certainly could fire riots and rebellions against the internal walls.


I made up my mind.
I will read a few volumes of the manga, because I realize that it is impossible to escape spoilers. If it is to find out about the Titans, it better be through the manga.

But they knew that the citizens would literally be just food and they knew that those that lived in the inner walls didnt really care.Hell they were experiencing it during the ration scene.

I notice there are still a lot of people complaining about Eren though. Am I the only one who really appreciates how he turns this mental trauma into pure, unadulterated rage?
Now that's the attitude of a protagonist.

Totally agree with you, furthermore, people complaining about Eren being a kid in the first 2 episodes are just idiots.
