| Meanwhile I'm freaking out how nasty it was to make people drink spinal fluid that mutates people into mindless zombie giants. Ewww... Also, I hate Zeke more than any villain ever. Smug sadistic bearded psycho! I'm just hoping Levi gets to slay him for good! |

Smug sadistic bearded psycho! I'm just hoping Levi gets to slay him for good! Same! It doesn't matter to me if Zeke did that for the sake of Eldia or not. The dude has no shred of guilt in his soul, his morals are so twisted and I just hope he gets what he deserves sooner or later. I seriously don't care how it ends, it'll be rewarding to see him go down in my opinion. |
| I sometimes forget to finish my sentences. |
| Cant wait for Levi vs Zeke scene, I hope they adapted it very well |
| Fun Fact: Gabi>Floch |
| Man, listen to them tear into me. Good thing I'm used to it. |
| Yes! Finally something's happening. I love Eren's hairstyle. Gabi deserved what she got, and hopefully Eren chews her out in the next episode. However I don't see how Eren hopes to win against the world when he's split Paradis' forces into two. |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| Finally caught up was a fun binge watch. The old crew back together but under interesting circumstances. Gabi is annoying because they won't do anything to her since she is a kid and Falco takes all the hits for her. Felt bad for Sasha's family. |
oikawa_the_door said: Amazing episode! Went through all the feels of Sasha all over again. My question is (and this might have been explained or I’m just dumb), why did Eren bleed without transforming?? I thought any kind of injury to yourself caused them to transform? Is it because Eren’s Titan clock is ticking and he is gonna die soon? Would rlly appreciate it if I could get some answers, but plz no manga spoilers ^ - ^ thx!! he can control whenever he wants to transform he did this in the declaration of war as well remember he needs to have a goal as well as a self-inflicted injury to transform, meaning that if he doesn't have a goal he won't transform (this has happened many times before) this is done just to say "I can transform at any time so do this" basically being held at gunpoint |
Sourire said: Man they leave us on a cliffhanger for the table scene, I need it now. Eren walking in casually in the room where Mikasa, Armin and Gabi are talking.. I have no problem whatsoever with this episode it was a great setup for the next 3 weeks. The voice actors are simply amazing, week in week out. Kaya’s VA gave me chills when she attempted swift justice on Gabi. I liked this part of the episode where they showed Levi’s flashback of his crew from season 1, we even saw Petra. Best moment of the episode goes to this ginger beauty  And we finally learn what’s in the wine and the stakes couldn’t be higher next week. Preview: Do you have that Joker Floch image in good quality by any chance? |
| I have lots of questions but I have to wait for the later episodes, hope they'll be answered. The whole stuff with Găbița - Niccolo - Sasha's father was great, I expected them to act like that and I am not disappointed by the outcome. Eren there took me by surprise, overall, lots of talking, the season started so good and full of action and now we're still on the island waiting for Marley's invasion, now we're in a civil war and all MP chiefs will transform into titans. Paradis looks too weak right now and Zeke's plan took fruition, they should have killed him when they had the chance. Paradis' hope of winning this war is close to 0 right now because of some really bad decisions, now that's why I'm disappointed about. |

They can't kill him, he's a titan with royal blood, and Historia is pregnant. The absolutely only way Paradis has a chance to survive is mini rumbling or rumbling in general. In other words, an individual possessing the founding titan(Eren) must come into physical contact with a titan of royal blood(Zeke). Therefore NO MATTER what Zeke does he's absolutely essential, and they cannot kill him no matter what. |

No, because you need to have royal blood in order to have access to founding titan's powers. Eating Zeke wouldn't make Eren someone of royal blood. Beast titan has no relevance, Zeke could have been any titan, Armored, female, pure. What makes him special is his blood, royal blood he inherited from Dina Fritz. Military planned Historia to eat Zeke, and get Beast, not founding, precisely because of Karl Fritz's renunciation of war. |

Marley or Zeke? because there was that weird dialogue between Griez and Niccolo where Griez said that Niccolo became too peaceful and forgot his role (or something like that) and how come a no name like Floch knew that much info about the wine and the MPs? and if so, why are they acting like that in front of the Jagerists if they're loyal to Zeke and plan something else? But if I get the answers in the next episodes I guess you don't have to respond |

But if I get the answers in the next episodes I guess you don't have to respond Niccolo is a specific case because he has fallen in love with Sasha. Some of the Marleyan soldiers are not ethnically Marleyan, they are from countries that Marley has conquered, such as Onyankopon, so their goal is more for themselves, they want to use Paradis in order to free their countries. Floch knows it because he serves under Eren. The anime right now has left viewers wondering why exactly ethnically Marleyan soldiers are loyal to Zeke, is he just so charismatic?. That is naturally a question i cannot answer to. |

That is naturally a question i cannot answer to. thanks a lot, really helped, the anime confused me a bit with all the alliances that I forgot about each group's real motives. Zeke is still a mystery though, now that he says that he wants freedom for eldians and he's cooperating with the islanders, I wonder if we could've avoided the conflict in Shiganshina (s3p2). |

TrillaDSmith said: bipac said: I don't get it. The OST suits the scene tonally and enhances it. What's the problem then? Or is it because YSBG is not being blared over and over in the scene? I can say with confidence that if people didn't know it was Yamamoto's tracks they would be praising it to kingdom come. bipac said: The OST overall could’ve been so better especially to suit that gabi scene the episode was amazing but I do feel MAPPA are not choosing the right OST for the right moments and scenes which would be much more impactful if they did like s3p2 the OST in each scene was absolutely perfect and brang out more emotion and tension so get where’s he’s coming from but that would be the only little improvement that’s needed everything else is flawless if you ask me even CGI till this day I don’t get the fuss about itI don't get it.

| Wow, amazing sequence of events that leads to, in my opinion, the biggest cliffhanger I have seen all season. Love the idea of the coup and overthrowing of the military very the Eren group as well, not often seen in anime. Also, Gabi is walking on thin ice rn I swear. |
| Things didn't go well for Gabi. Poor Falco, getting his head smashed like that. Even though I'm reading the manga, Kaya's rage and her attempt to stab Gabi in the head was really shocking. Great episode. Looking forward to things that will happen next episode. |
 |
| Rating: 5/5 • 0:38 So is this how he turns humans into Titans? • 0:54 Oh, it is. Kind of. • 4:47 Shouldn’t Niccolo (is that his name?) recognize Falco and Gabi? • 6:33 Wait a minute, this is bad, isn’t it? If the military is here, they’re going to see Falco and Gabi and recognize them for sure. • 8:48 Uh oh. Shit’s gonna go down when Niccolo finds out… • 13:39 This is not at all what I was expecting Sasha’s dad to say. What a legend. • 19:37 How the fuck did Eren get here all of a sudden? And why does he look like he belongs in a completely different anime lmao Hope Eren says something smart in the next episode. Something that doesn’t amount to ”I want to kill everyone, Marleyans are bad, Eldians good, I will have my revenge.” |
| Poor Falco and OG Scouts, we have barely anyone left to root for. |
  |
| oh god! intense! i got no words 5/5. i wonder what Gabi thinks right now, especially when 'He" is directly in front of him! BWAHAHAH! |
 |
| Floch rapeface was 10/10. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Throughout the season the plot continues to work in so many great ways and this episode showed just that, the continious character development of characters and all the hype moments keeps making me enjoy this as much as season 3 did. |
| Just like I thought it appears that Zeke has been playing a long con all that time (or since the Paradis brass objected to following his plan), via Yelena. The question is if that con is about saving the Eldians (as the "Jaegerists" think, most likely naively) or dooming them. I think -as a non-manga reader- it's about dooming them. The wine was a rather early hint, but I thought it might have been slow acting poison. I never expected that. If Zeke's plan has been to doom the Eldians then Eren bought his lies hook, line and sinker, despite knowing full well via the memories of his father that Zeke betrayed their father and Zeke's mother. Never really expected much from Eren, particularly this moody, "I am fazed by nothing" Eren. As Frank Herbert once said "Heroes are a disaster, superheroes are an absolute disaster", and the same applies to every "charismatic leader". I had not realized that fate(?) brought Gabi and Falco to the family of Sasha. I did not recall her last name, I just knew her as "Sasha" and "potato girl". The realization in this episode hit quite hard, it shocked me basically, so perhaps it was better this way. The scene with the "triangle" of Gabi, Nicolo and Sasha's family was high drama at its finest. Well done MAPPA, though I would have hoped for a bit less "shading of faces with vertical lines", which I think you use way too much of. Too much of anything is bad! :) |

| Honestly I have such a hard time keeping up with the plot on a week to week basis. I'll definitely need to do a binge rewatch once its done. Some people are really mad they didnt just kill off Gabi, and while I too hate her, I think a redemption arc for her would be pretty great if done well. She is inching closer to understanding that the people of Paradis aren't just evil monsters, and Mikasa's decision to just not allow violence was a nice touch. |
| I don't really get this whole signature thing, but I feel like I need something down here to participate in the trends. |
This episode had wonderful character design  Best meme XD I so wanted Mr. Braus to kill Gabi with that knife but what he said was justified. |
