This was a superb episode. Right up there with Episode 5.

Levi looked great. Armin looked pretty damn good. Jean's model looked so much better this episode.

I don't think they missed much off the manga, if anything at all.

Gabi and Falco's VAs are killing it.

The OST was on point this episode as well.

I actually felt a little bad for the Marleyans here, I don't remember feeling that way in the manga at all. They got absolutely demolished. Testament to the direction.

Using dynamic camera movements does make the 3DCG more bearable. I thought the Beast titan looked fine overall as did other titans. The only one who’s model looked off at times was the Attack titan. Soundtrack was fine but nothing special. Fights were enjoyable even tho it was a one-sided slaughter and we finally got to see the Nutcracker titan

The character designs and overall hand drawn art and animation was the best so far apart from episode 1 I thought. Levi and Mikasa looked good as did Armin and others. Some screenshots:


One thing I thought could’ve been improved was Armin’s transformation into the Colossal titan, I thought it could’ve been made a bit more epic visual-wise but that’s me nitpicking.. example

Also with Jean questioning to kill both Pieck and Falco, but my guy just goes and shoots lmao. The calamity of war is an interesting watch indeed, watching people's action during such a time.

Also, did MAL go down because of this?

This was SOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD bruh. There were a hell lot of 2D moments inserted, and the blend between 2D and 3D was better as well compared to the previous episode. All the major moments were covered as well: Armin's entry, Pieck's slaughter, and Reiner's transformation. Hell, they made even Reiner as 2D. Damn that looked so dope. 10/10 episode once again fam! Now, next episode:

HEICHOUUUUU LEVIIIIIII. I’m a manga reader and that honestly got me so hyped seeing the beast fall to the floor 🔥

AND ALSO ARMIN WTF HE LOOKS SO GOOOODDDD!

Cgi was really well done, nothing that seemed subpar by any means, loved the entire ep.

Poor Galliard got clapped 💀💀
10/10 episode, best of the season

Oh well ODM scenes this season are fucked. CGI ODM is just ugly and has no fluidity. The slash animation feels so fucking cheap.

Armin looked amazing and the long distance shots of the Collosal as well. Wasn't a fan of the Collosal's body in the near up shots though. (looked something that came from S1 and looked too glossy there. Armin was really fucking skinny in the manga if I'm not wrong )
Face looked fine as usual.

Loved the explosion OST but the overall OST usage has been just 'okay'

The attack titan is just depressingly bad. The nutcracker scene was unfortunately disappointing. Still not a fan of the metallic SFX for Reiner's titan but I guess it's fine.


Can't believe how they've managed to make our horse so much worse and Eren just meh.

The persistent issues of the shitty filters remain but I guess it's a slight improvement

If this is the standard this season maintains holy fuck 116-119 will be a huge letdown

Amazing episode! Definitely one of my faves so far. The CGI was consistent. Armin looked so pretty. The scene I was awaiting excitedly, i.e. Porco being used as a nutcracker was insane! I felt so bad for him, Reiner and Gabi. And the OST slapped on top of it all. Great work from mappa 10/5

This is the best episode this season so far. CGI is awesome, some shot kinda off but its allright. Camera movement hell yeah. When eren plug off jaw titan hands kinda satisfiying, just like Thanksgiving. The Isabel crystal looks lit.

The backsound and the ost is rlly different from prev eps, thats really show the different of perspective and thats great. Armin atomic bomb is really silent, just tragic everywhere. easy 10/10

Gabi and Falco's VA is insane, but for Porco VA is kinda missed for me, but thats no problem

wow this episode totally exceed my expectation, im glad it was far better than last ep

im used to the CGI already and the OST was on point.

props to Ayaneru and Hanae Natsuki for that voice acting

i freakin love the atmosphere when Eren about to eat the Warhammer aka the Nutcracker scene, that was intense.

also i love the way they directing Reiner's monologue at the last moment. '

i agree this is by far the best episode along with episode 5

My God. What a great fucking episode. How the heck they managed to maintain tension throughout the action scenes is beyond me. Props to both Hayashi and Sishido. I am still getting goosebumps from that nutcracker moment lol. Also holy shit,they went above and beyond with Armin transformation. And the soundtrack!

Again, brilliant episode.Even the art was phenomenal throughout all the actions.The cg of jaws and AT was brilliant. Besides, Eren big braining that WT.And Reiner seems to finally gain the resolve to not die. Bruh I am literally fanboying rn lol.

No he’s talking about Eren refusal to swiftly eat Porco and acquire another titan. That was something that did annoy me in the manga as well when I read it. It is plot armor but for a good reason in the grand scheme of things..

I think Eren was trying to be intimidating by beating the shit out of an already beat up warrior who just lost the will to fight because of what Eren did. And this makes sense to me because Eren is actually impersonating the devil which Willy Tybur was talking about.

If not, then yeah, it's plot armor as you say

Eh, It would have been 10 times worse if it was Eren in that situation as we all know he is the main character, plot armor for the villain(I don't consider them as villain but you get what I mean) is much better than having it for the main character.

Plus it was a one sided match as well.

This was a bit of a mixed bag for me. The Colossal and Beast Titan moments definitely exceeded my expectations, while the whole Attack Titan vs. Jaw Titan fight and the nutcracker scene was, well.... not much to say, really underwhelming.... We've been through these rounds, I'm very well aware that MAPPA is getting the best out of the miserably short time they were given, but yeah, I can't help but wonder how quite a lot of scenes could have looked if the production committee didn't try their hardest to kill and dishonor the series for quick money.

At the end of the day, it's coming from the mouth of a manga reader, who knows and loves the story, and all he wants is to see this masterpiece animated. The overwhelming majority of AoT fans are anime only, and the plot fully makes up for every flaw the production itself has and manga readers criticise (some of them reasonably, and some of them like the 5 years old kid screaming in the supermarket whose mom didn't buy him the toy he wanted).

Eren made the Jaw Titan his bitch and regardless of how much Pieck got fucked up, she's still cute :3

Crazy good episode. Visually and acoustically it managed to convey the terror and I honestly felt helpless just by watching the victims, Falco and Gaby. This was like the very first episode on steroids. The intensity also never seemed to dip. Just wow and I'm hyped for handsome Squidward.

That's true but it could have been done in a better way I think, Galliard didn't have his arms/legs and Eren was toying with him in the middle of the battlefield, it wasn't subtle.

I think it's safe to say this the best episode of this season so far.

Armin's transformation scene was just 10/10 it's 100 times better than I expected. And the colossal titan was 2D! Honestly they did my boy Armin justice, he looked so good, I was kinda worried he might look weird like Floch last episode lol. Hange and Onyankopon looked great too. AHHHH I'M JUST SO HAPPY THEY'RE ALL FINALLY HERE!

Also the nutcracker scene finally happened lmao, I feel so bad for Porco now he looked so traumatized, I never cared about him in the manga but the anime is making me like him alot more. And that gulping sound when Eren ate the Warhammer ugh that was gross and terrifying.

Just absolutely amazing episode!! MAPPA GOAT.

OMG! Mikasa amputated the Jaw Titan then Eren used him as a crystal cracker!

Levi once again knocked down the Beast Titan.

Team Sasha and Jean on the other hand almost killed Pieck.

Devils of Paradis beat the crap out of Titan Shifter Eldians in Marleys this episode!
