kamisama751 said: • Our protagonist touched a very hot pipe before and felt no pain. However, someone kicks him in the ass and it hurts. The pipe implied his skin got numb. It has nothing to do with nerve terminals, the thing that makes you feel pain. He isn't the Kiznaiver's MC all of a sudden. We know shit about kabaneri, where is implied they can't. (This defense is rather weak, so actually yours is a good point) kamisama751 said: • Caring out a funeral is more important than surviving. What if lots of Kabane attacks follow the fire and attack you? Well I can't defend this one rationally, but at least it shows you how superstitious the plebs are. kamisama751 said: • His imouto is already a Kabane. How can a little TNT bag pierce though that heart protector? It just does. The little thing is OP. kamisama751 said: • Pregnant mother needed an entire day to turn into a Kabane. The speed is way too slow. You forgot there's a 3 days rule, designed to contain people that are suspected to be infected even for the tiniest scratch. A rule so specific can be crafted through observation and experience. kamisama751 said: • As we can see from Ikoma's sister. You will stay unmovable for a while before completely turning into a Kabane. However, this is not the case with the pregnant mother for plot's sake. The sister is dead. The mother was alive and got scratched. Considering the survivors weren't investigated, no one noticed until it was too late. Man I read some good ones but I didn't copied them. Well, it's still good. How come you didn't critiziced the plebs's overdramatic reaction to the Kabaneris? |
 It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; What is essential is invisible to the eye.But does the heart have the right perspective? |
| Awe man. That ending though, will he bite or will he not bite! |
 |
| Cliffhanger! I had to do it sorry! I hope they keep on creating such crazy cliffhangers though. This show deserves that. Ikoma and Mumei are going to be the stars of this anime, both being so contrast and one knowing all and the other still learning. I liked how they gave it a rest, the action which so crazy in the last 2 eps. |
 |
| Conflict created by Mumei not saying anything in multiple occasions? Most bothersome thing of the episode. She smells a kabane on the train? you wouldn't understand. Ikoma needs blood to drink? What's the big deal, let him find out himself. Ikoma should train? Just beat him that will sure teach him how to fight. The ribbon holds Mumei's power back? lol, same dumb logic of the first episode. It wouldn't be that big of a deal if the show didn't take itself so seriously but that's not the case. When his sister was bitten he ran away but when he came back where were the kabane? Of course nowhere, they can't kill the MC but he needs a tragic backstory and killing his own sister seems pretty tragic. Give two rations of food to a kabane? What a waste of food when they don't even have enough food for the humans. At least Mumei didn't waste time comparing normal food to horseshit or other disgusting things and directly asked for blood, the ones surrounding her are minor characters anyway so who cares about them. People hating on Kurusu when he is the only reasonable person on that train. At least the princess is not completely useless. But it has pretty colours 10/10. |

| prediction for next episode. ikoma bites ayame and she turns into a kabane. it is then revealed that kabaneri need blood to drink blood to survive. The suspicous man who tried to kill ikoma earlier tries to kill ayame with his gun and kurusu takes the bullet for her. Kurusu gets badly wounded and the only way for him to survive is to be turned into a kabaneri by ayame. They arrive at kongokaku and ayame uncle disowns ayame for being a kabaneri. A huge kabeneri appears out of nowhere and destroys the fortress wall. The kabaneri survey group is formed and saves the day. Then somewhere in the story the green stone plays an important role like having the ability to reverse the kabane curse. |

| wow Kabaneris eat human blood too just like those Kabane/Zombies lol this is not good for the Kabaneris |
| Oh well, basically Kabane are vampires before Byron. And Kabaneri are vampires after Byron. |

| Cool episode, but rather... boring? Not much really happened. Mumei is a huge bitch. most of the time. Also, is she the same one from before? The one with the balded sandal? |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| After watching this episode, I'm starting to think that it's like Walking Dead and everyone's already infected, except the natural infection gives you a mental illness that makes you completely dumb. I might end up dropping this. I'm perfectly fine with the edgy themes, but the stupidity in this is physically painful to get through. |
| Not as action packed as the last episode, but for good reason. Gotta develop them characters! I absolutely love Mumei. Not only she is a bad ass killing machine, but her personality is so care free. You get to see how she is really like when she was around the kids. We also get to see more of what a Kabaneri truly is. Ayame seems pretty competent enough to be a leader especially how she handled all the situations that occurred through out the episode. Got to see more of Ikoma's past as well and see what drives him to be who he is today. He is very thoughtful of others own safety, which is even more admirable considering he tried to sacrifice himself last episode. ....That cliffhanger..... Loving this series so far and I had my doubts that it might be an Attack on Titan rip off, but so far so good. |
 |
| Behold a great candidate for one of the best anime of the season in my opinion, each episode I am increasingly excited about this plot and also the characters .. |
  |
| I sided mumui in this episode... but that last scene though |
 |
| Mumei is really turning out to be the UN-likeable version of Levi. Oh now she's awesome with kids too? Great! I don't get why so many people love her? Other that not liking Mumei beting up Ikoma, I think the episode was pretty good. |
| Resist your urges Ikoma! we knew Ayame got the boobs but learn to control your self! haha! God Damn! Mumei never stops being badass! I worship her! 5/5! |

Other that not liking Mumei beting up Ikoma, I think the episode was pretty good. Nonsense. Levy isn't likable in the least until near the end of the anime >_> I realized something about this episode's reveal. THe guy who was with Mumei in episode one. That guy was clearly not a fighter. So what if he was the supplier of blood for Mumei on the journey. |

The writers have tried to make Mumei like Levi along with adding a few irritating trait to her personality. She is so annoying that I might just not like the anime as much simply because of her idiotic personality. She tries so hard to act cool but alas, she's just not good enough/ |
| Getting MCs reasons for fighting This was pretty much episode 1 of AoT And the repetitive conflict of naive hime and paranoid commoners about trusting MC and Loli kinda bothered me Inferno792 said: I don't get why so many people love her? Me neither...or wait...it's because people love badass lolis |

Kinaro said: Getting MCs reasons for fighting This was pretty much episode 1 of AoT And the repetitive conflict of naive hime and paranoid commoners about trusting MC and Loli kinda bothered me Oh I'm sorry. Remind me where Eren had to KILL his mother with his own hands. Last I remember he got yanked by a guard and dragged away screaming. Kind of a big difference how those played out. Different psychological effect to boot. |

She's been this annoying for the good part of all the 3 episodes. I don't know how much I'll hate her after the season is over. |

| Damn. When did the pregnant woman get bitten? That sucks. Brutal episode. |
| surprise engrish xD |
 Fixes to make the Profile more bearable after "the Modern★Profile★Update★★Rip★Profile★" |
| Pretty good episode, I hope that we get more than just 12 episodes. |
| Blood? You can have my blood anything ;) 4/5 |
 |
| I like the show so far. But I hope we can move on to episodes not filled with 90% "Those people are Kabane ! Throw them off" dialogs |
| Good Episode, Not as action packed as the last one but it definitely delivered. Mumei is awesome, Really liking her. I'm seriously disgusted with the generally populace on the train, Last episode showed how ungrateful they were but this episode painted them in an even worse manner to me. They were saved by Mumei and Ikoma and the very least they could do is rethink their impressions of them rather than just blindly considering them monsters, I guess I can't expect a bunch of superstitious obsolete traditionalists who want to hold a a funeral while you're running for your life to show a bit of sense. Ikoma's past was definitely a common story but still sad :( I was waiting for the "I'll destroy all the Kabane" line, I always like that sort of thing XD So Kabaneri need blood to survive, Didn't expect that. That does make them pretty similar to the common Vampire trope. |

| To everyone who kept spamming "attack on trainwreck" as if it was ever the least bit funny: how stupid do you feel now? |

Trying way too hard to nitpick things, your bias is more obvious than finding Waldo at a nudist camp. Just lol @ everyone that expects a bunch of terrified industrial peasants to behave the way you want in a high-stress fucked up situation with fresh trauma and an ongoing zombie epidemic. |
|
| Mumei is rather bothersome with her actions...but besides that, quite the episode with that ending! |
 |
| Should hopefully get more than 12 episodes. |
| How come every single character in this show is an annoying fuckboii/gurl? At least SnK had Levi |
 Nico- said: Conversations with people pinging/quoting me to argue about some old post I wrote years ago will not be entertained@Comic_Sans oh no y arnt ppl dieing i need more ppl dieing rly gud plot avansement jus liek tokyo ghoul if erbudy dies amirite |
| Its really nice to see such competent and interesting male and female leads. Mumei's no-bullshit attitude combined with her screw up cute nature is a breath of fresh air and Ikoma is enjoyable science-nerdy. Really nice relationship build up both between Mumei and Ikoma as well as Ikoma and the princess, alongside some nice worldbuilding and visuals. Any comparisons to AOT at this point are idiocy at best. Inaccurate, as Mumei does not make me want to repeatedly stab her in the face with a shovel. |

I am a failure, sorry. It's that just only writing "edgy and mediocre" is not enough characters. |

Daw11 said: Mumei, as soon as she realize that Ikoma is the only man in the world that would marry an half kabane. Nope. Also when Did Mikasa ever beat Eren down for the purpose of training?

You're really really threatened by this series aren't you? Afraid that this series might get more popular than Titan and then Titan gets pushed back indefinitely. That's all I can hear from your ridiculous arguments Mod Edit: Modified quote of edited post. |
