SkullProX said: Berserk Titan mode was ridiculous anyway it was an anime only thing, I'm glad they didn't have it in here.Why didn't Eren go to his berserk mode, like vs annie? Looked like he only won with some 'tricks' and the help of Mikasa, maybe he could've won easily in berserk titan mode. (No manga spoilers please) |
| oh my god im gonna watch it again cant get enough of Eren's Titan <3 |
Madishi said: He is turning into a skeleton due to the mass amount of steam he's been usingCan someone tell my why the Colossal Titan transformed without legs? And why is he a skeleton at this point? Is Berth still in the titan form? |
| WOW Fantastic & Brilliant Episode. So much greatness happening. Eren vs the Armored Titan was amazing. Eren was awesome in this fight. Learning from Annie & using her technique in battle. Mikasa getting in on the action was great. Hange blushing over Eren's Titan form. Hange & the Survey Corps trying to attack to Colossal Titan was awesome. The 3D maneuver in action was cool. Holy Shit the Colossal Titan falling. |

(No manga spoilers please) The Annie flashback reminded me of that 'FIRE MODE' titan power-up. That was so stupid. Just to end S1 more flashy, they gave Eren a generic shounen clutch ability... and are now gonna ignore its existence and hope people forget. Totally went against the growth he showed during the Reiner fight, which was ironically based on having his arse kicked by Annie. Kinda defeats whole point of learning techniques when you can go berserk and win anyway, 'innit. Also, we need to see the winner of Eren's superpowered harem battle. More interesting than the Reiner fight. Maybe. |
| The Titan Trio are literally my favorite! Damn I miss Annie :( |
| I repeat myself every week but wow, this episode was so damn good. Right from the start I liked that they showed Mikasa actually hesitated in decapitating the 2 guys, which explains how they survived and at the same time also shows she isn't just a cold-hearted badass. Then, there was that 3d maneuver gear goodness against the colossal titan and the flashback, which were both brilliant. The fight between Eren and Reiner was also pretty awesome, especially because the betrayal that Eren felt was conveyed so well. And speaking of him, gotta say he absolutely rocked in this episode. Love this show so much. |
| 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... |
| Snk is the king of cliffhangers :p also Eren matured a lot , im proud of him |

| Fanboying so hard right now, loved this episode. |

| That was the intensity I've wanted from S2 this whole time |
keragamming said: If I had to ask of course I'd want them dead, and the sooner the better. After all they're lame characters and I couldn't care less about those motives xDLordwen 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. Why wouldn't you want them to escape with Eren? Aren't you interesting in their motive? Where they came from etc? So you would rather they die without getting any answers? They dying would be the equivalent of Annie crystalizing from giving the viewers any answers. So ironically they dying would be another plot convenience, because that would just delay all the questions in the series. At this point I think this series would be better off without giving any answers. The suspense/mistery would die out sooner or later, but hey. Instead we get corny flashbacks and titans practicing martial arts. Not to forget about a key to a certain basement. |
 |
YESSSSSS WHYYYYYYY???????????? God adaptation overall. |
 |
| They're all amaze by the fight of eren and reiner, though to me, I'm already glad seeing Jean again betting to Mikasa xD The collosal cgi wasn't that bad, its motion looks smoother this time. Next episode, some info dump dialog again. |
 |
| What is up with the Colossal Titan CGI.. whatever it was worth waiting 4 years for this. |
| People who are complaining about the episode ending on that cliffhanger: That's the exact way chapter 44 ends (manga). Faithfull adaptation. |

| LMAOOO never thought i'd see aot turn into the UFC, get dana white on the phone |
| the official MAL hall of fame/cursed comments is now open for business - you are welcome to PM me any potential quotes to include |
@julianobouken manga readers had to wait a month, anime only will wait only a week. Life if much more easier for anime only watchers. lol |
| So instead of getting the explanation that was the Titans themselves we instead get a shonen powertrip... Any sense of whatever is left of this series being cutting edge like how it was in season one has literally been diminished to flashbacks and stupidity. We're seven episodes in, the show is almost over and we don't even know what the hidden premise is. God knows why you guys love this overrated medium. |
| Lie until what you want to be true becomes truth. Lie until you can't remember what's a lie and what isn't. Lie until you aren't lying anymore! Figures  |
| @keragamming But they waited 4 years for a second season. hahaha |

We're seven episodes in, the show is almost over and we don't even know what the hidden premise is. God knows why you guys love this overrated medium. 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" what were you expecting, eren and Reiner in their titan form drinking tea explaining their motive to him? like ughhh! If you are trolling you did a great job at it for triggering me. 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 whether we get answers or not. You will get answers when the anime reach the point in the manga where questions are being answered. So you either be patient or read the source material. |

| @keragamming It's good only 12 episodes now because the next arc is: I guess next year we gonna have 2 cour adaptation. |

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. |
| Lie until what you want to be true becomes truth. Lie until you can't remember what's a lie and what isn't. Lie until you aren't lying anymore! Figures |
| What an ending. Still want to know what the whole deal is with some titans being controllable and others being zombie like. Hopefully find out soon. |
| DAMN that was intense, the hype is back |
| OMGGGGGGGGG THIS WAS SOOO EPIC !! When this season ends i must continue the manga, i don't even know why i stopped reading it xD This was so epic!!! As always, OST + Fights 10/10! Eren badass af xD |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| RIP to Eren and Connie's relationship with Reiner and Berty. Srsly, i'm so upset about this :(( but, this was a super intense episode, and when Eren took down Reiner with the skills he learnt from Annie. That was sick!   |

| I personally thought the cgi was worse in this episode, but it focused mainly on eren vs reiner which was great. |

Well, for the most part season 2 will be a disappointment for you then if you are expecting full answers. Just going to tell you from now that you will get hints sprinkle here and there this season, but you will still be left in the dark in what is going. I suspect many will read the manga after this season, especially if it ends where I think it will end at. I just did you a favour, now you can have the lowest expectation for the rest of this season. |
| Dayum this is epic af, that cliffhanger tho *_* |
 |
| The cliffhanger is real |
| That was a oool fight |
julianobouken said: People who are complaining about the episode ending on that cliffhanger: That's the exact way chapter 44 ends (manga). Faithfull adaptation. Yeah I'm laughing at all the people crying about the cliffhanger. They only have to wait a week to find out what happens next. We had to wait a whole damn month for the next Manga chapter. Glad the studio is being faithful to to the manga with this adaptation too. Not throwing in crap like the berserk mode Eren Titan from last season. |
| Honestly it was nice to see Eren able to get the upper hand so easily. |
 |
| Omg they can't end it there omfg |
| Daaaaamn, that episode feel like it last 5 minutes. I was so excited when Eren was fighting Reiner, was saying "hit him" all the time LOL Btw, I love Reiner's titan form design, looks pretty cool. |
 |
| Seriously, my only problem is the inconsistent animation and the dam CGI... -.- The rest is TOP :D |

Going full action = Shonen ??? K Nonetheless the preview of next episode indeed seems to have given out too much. Don't know if this is predictable for anime only viewers. |

| While the last episode was really good, this one was one of the worst of whole SNK imo. Nor exciting fight, nor plot development. Plot armour all over the place.... I still liked it tho, just didn't feel the same... And I still wonder what part Papa titan will play in this one |

| These spies... if they were actually doing their job instead of making useless friendship and flirting with their enemies, they would've been fine. smh |

Even Death Note is shonen. |
