I mean they were cryptic enough about most of it but if you were a manga reader watching this episode you're probably flipping your shit seeing Ymir on the wall Flipping your shit in a good or bad way? I didn't mind that they included that in the anime already instead of waiting with it for season 3. It made the ep very enjoyable for me. I've read chapters 1-80 or more. Not in a bad way. Just personally I was thinking wow that shit is stuff ive only very recently seen in the manga, and just in comparison to none of that important shit being told in the anime yet i just got excited haha Kinda like when i saw the ED2 for season 1 and was gettin all hype seeing all the shifters before the anime only people really knew |
 |
It really looks like him. Spot on. Time to collect the dots. I read the manga in three days so, I am just giving you hints. |
| "Manga readers are annoying, all they do is complain or spoil the anime we discuss in an anime forum. They should really do their whining at manga forums." Stolen from Janethan23. Add in visual novel readers too |
| How they are handling this is absolutely disgusting. Using one of the best epiphany of the manga to fill the void inbetween scenes. How can you defend this? |
| holy shit im shook at this episode and i really cant anymore with the cliffhangers so i guess ill be reading the manga once this season is over ALSO, ive developped a little twisted theory of my own on everything that we've been getting the last 2 episodes i consider this theory pretty solid so anime only watchers who avoid spoilers (like me) stop reading now! (I dont know how to tag a spoiler lolol) anyway, as an anime only watcher, im figuring that titans are mainly humans turned titans as a punishement or so, and the only way for them to turn back human is by eating another human.. which explains why all titans eat humans despite not needing any food to survive but its not that simple, the human eaten needs to be a titan shifter for that equation to work, i mean ymir did eat marcel who was RAB's friend and obviously was a titan shifter as well... and so i am guessing that marco is from RAB's little clan and he's a titan shufter and that he was eaten by eren which explains how jeager can transform back to his human form manga readers please dont confirm this if its correct or not im just speculating and i rather avoid any type of spoilers but of course all discussion is open around this theory |

| God i miss Annie. glad they keep showing her. |
| They showed surprisingly large amount of Ymir's past. A bit spoilery but I still really liked it. Eren punching Reiner was hilarious.  |
 |
| Ok, so eating a human reverts a titan back to human form? So that's why titans target humans but leave others? |
| 'Ask her to wait a moment— I am almost done.' - Carl Friedrich Gauss ( When told, while working, that his wife was dying). |
| There was a lot of new information in this episode and it was almost overwhelming. Like, what's the coordinate and that whole Ymir's flashback seemed extremely important to the story. Very interesting stuff |
| 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... |
| this episode added a lot to Ymir backstory than the manga it seems but im glad i have read the manga since that backstory of Ymir eating one of friends of Reiner and Bertholdt makes more sense now |
| So that explains the talking Titan from the OVA. Must've been one of Ymir's followers that got Titan'd. A lot of really exciting revelations going on here, but this pacing is still killing me XD |
| Seeing the slow pace it has, I don't think the last 2 episodes are gonna get to the end of this arc, unless... The last episode is gonna be a 50 or probably 60 minutes eps. Is that possible?? I hope so. |

Still hoping for 50 minutes last episode, though... :) |

| I'm still having so much trouble putting these pieces together. Just hoping it will all make sense by the end of this season, sounds a like some reveals will have to come out of order from what the manga readers are implying. Anyway, Ymir's backstory was interesting and about as sad as I would have expected. I would've liked more time with that tbh, it felt a bit quick. Also there are way too many flags that Ymir and Christa's relationship is going to be a death immediately following confession thing... Which will somehow turn into betrayal and a major setback for Team Ningen. Ugh. |
 |
| Good Episode like usual... As the manga reader, I don't actually remember that Ymir's backstory at this point and They actually shows the part that supposed to be showing later in the manga (not supposed to be in this arc)? But I think It has It's own pacing I guess, still I would say "wtf?!" for this episode. |

| Alright, now we're getting somewhere! Ymir's backstory helped explain a lot of stuff. There are still some questions that need to be answered, but this episode helped connect some of the pieces together and I can take a few guesses as to what's going on. It took a while for AoT to get going, but after this episode, I'm interested to see what happens down the line. |

| Why the hell would they show that flashback so fucking early. I mean I guess anime onlies will still be confused, but come on. I could understand showing maybe some of it, BUT EVERYTHING? I'm really disappointed. |
| Too many give away whole season is filled with a lot spoilers especially ending ,and what will come onward with 4th season probally, Too many things were shown with yimir flashback.............. |

| Decent episode. My main issue was with the presentation of Ymir's backstory; it was both too rushed and too exposition-y for me to really get invested. It was intriguing and apparently hints at significant spoilers, according to this thread, but the way it was presented didn't really make me care about Ymir any more than I did before. |
Pie is delicious. |
So intense and more hype.. go Mikasa go, save Eren! |

| If you read the eyecatch, it's clear that Ymir's hometown is outside the walls, meaning that the cult thing happened in a town outside the walls. So the wall they kicked her off from is not any of Maria, Rose, or Sina. |

But I doubt you can understand it. You have to be blind not to see it. You literally see other people in an uniform with guns and people falling down and "exploding" (what can it be????) You also can't call it tease. You're contradicting yourself Are you really trying to call me out? Hahaha. Thing is people who read the manga are concerned for the future. We also just want the best for the Anime. But according to you I'm just some stranger who just wants to talk bad? There is a reason lovely underage. |

| The execution was perfect.... but what surpirsed me was they included so many spoilers in this episode (compared to the manga at this point) |

She became a Titan, wandered to the walls, ate Marcel, and became a human again. |
| I can't take those conversations seriously when they just fly in a straight line through the forest. Looks incredibly stupid and makes zero sense. |
"No you are a kid and you should trust this person without a doubt." Worst case there could be even an original ending for AoT Anime and I doubt that the animation studio is that depended on the mangaka. |

Tokoya said: keragamming said: Lmao, I'm very surprised that they did this....I'm not sure how I feel about it in the long run thoughh because I don't think that most anime original audiences won't pick up on this reveal after seeing thisNever thought they would show literally everything in Ymir backstory, this chapter came out literally month ago. It was really good episode regardless, I think Isayama told the anime team to include it so viewers will get more familiar with all these foreshadowing, so when we reach that point it will feel natural to viewers and not out of the blue, because he has dropped hints, but very subtle hints that your average anime only may not pay attention to. I saw some persons saying the series is going anime original, calm down, Seeing a scene that came out literally month go being animated feels great though. :D FRICK! I was freaking out while watching Ymir's backstory because it might spoil a lot But I'm happy that they made it as subtle as possible. Eeeek! My heart was pounding so hard since I was anxious that they might messed up because Ymir's childhood is a massive spoiler. Frick! Fuck you, Tetsuro, for fucking my heart up. Hahaha! As always this episode is GREAT! Friiiick! TWO EPISODES LEFT, SNK FANDOM! STILL HOPING THAT 12 EPISODES FOR SEASON 2 IS A JOKE!;-; |
