I am actually a little anxious as to what the fight next episode will bring. I don't wanna see anyone from their training group die, let alone get killed so soon!

Overall this episode is where shit hits the fan. Cannot wait the 7 day period between now and episode 5

This:

Known as humanity's most powerful soldier, the guy is a clean-freak. While it is said that he is blunt and unapproachable, it is noted that he has a strong respect for structure and discipline. The rumors are that he was originally part of underground crime before he became a soldier. He often comes off as unfriendly, but he cares for his team deeply and has never undervalued human life, thereby earning him the most popular character in Shingeki no Kyojin polls.

Hoping this crap is the result of focusing most of the effort on the cooler scenes.. not sure i'd accept it otherwise..


Wow... half-assed faces, didn't even notice, I could do a far better job...

Highlights of the episode!
- Rivalle makes his first appearance!
- Annie is a badass, evoked some thoughts in Eran
- Blaming Sasha, lol, at least she got her bread
- A wild Colossal Titan suddenly appears!

Onward to next week! Where the series finally begins!

Also, something I didn't notice before,

It's a major spoiler! So sit your ass down and enjoy the ride. It will make sense in the end


Why do you say it would make a sense? You can say it will be shown, but it possibly can't make sense.


Because it will make sense within the next 1-2 most likely 2 episode.


Okay. That means I don't have to wait much longer. Now that's good to know!

collosal titan is


but okay I will tell you the spoiler :



But didn't Sasha steal the meat from an officer? That is indeed some pissed off officer then. Haha.


Though I think the Lightning was a bit over the top because in the Manga it doesn't show any Lightning except for the Colossal Titan appearing.

Also, I really hope non-manga readers aren't reading that spoiler that guy posted without a tag..

That ending was completely unexpected. I had chills the entire time. We saw the old cliche (but in this case well handled) gathering of the hero and his company, but there's none of the expected deliberation. Instead, the writer said, "let's see just how convicted these characters are." Great story telling technique, and a great moment to let Eren shine. Whew. The stakes just skyrocketed.

There were so many ways the creators could have handled this. I was expecting Eren and co. to take the fight to the titans, and for there to be some build up to it. But episode 4's ending was realistic and convincing and fantastic. Life doesn't wait for you to make the first move, it comes at the most unexpected time and you'd better be ready. Eren is ready. He has conviction. Who doesn't love conviction? Are his friends ready though?

As always, Mikasa is a pleasure to watch. She's surprisingly witty, and otherwise steady and adept. A very desirable lady. And who doesn't love the genius?

Why do you say it would make a sense? You can say it will be shown, but it possibly can't make sense.

It will be somewhat explained...somewhat. The thing is, even in the manga, the people don't know much about the titans, and we're on the same boat as them.
yeah, I doubt they will have a proper explanation in this season. Hopefully a second season will properly explain it...when its it's properly explained in the manga.

I think it's implying that it's quite tricky, since it took them two years to reach a competent level.

Not to mention because it's literally impossible (speaking in regards to physics) to do it in real life, it's better if in-depth explanations of the 3DMG are left to a minimum.

One of Goku's future children. After many successive evolutions though, the Oozaru form is now as you see it: skinless human. And it activates during the day (sun) instead of the moon. He appeared using Instant Transmission.

As for this episode? Furking amazing.

Great episode.

For those who are inquiring about the Colossal Titan's sudden appearance via lightning:

I will actually list it for you. However, I have to say now that it is a MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR SPOILER and could RUIN your ENJOYMENT for the entire series.

If you still wish to hear it, then click on the following spoiler tag (I've used two tags just in case people click it by accident).

Yeah but I think they missed a big step in showing how they trained with it. Not full episode but atleast a quick briefing on how they are supposed to put it. Still love the episode but it just lost some points with that missing peace.

Agreed...Well technically it SHOULD'VE been like that(manga version).

Minor details(like "poofing" colossal titan) aside, this was on par with the first episode which was EPIC. Eren's VA and his actions don't seem that bratty either which is good.
