ErenxMikasa said: http://i.imgur.com/byD8Sd5.jpg Them feels T_T RIP Petra She was significant because she was one of the prettiest girl in the anime and not annoying. Dark Cyclone would disagree. I can imagine why as well. "You don't trust us Eren?" That could get on people's nerves I understand, but I'm not easily annoyed by fictional characters. That's suppose to be Levi's desk I'm guessing btw. |

| This ep was really sad, poor guys :( Levi was so badass there. |
| Just researched again because I can. Levi kicking ass is still awesome. I love the soundtrack in this anime, it just works so well with the story and feel of the scenes. The families of the elite squad waiting for their loved ones to return :( Mikasa watching over Eren like a hawk <3 Petra's body, and Levi's face when he saw that it was her :( Eren waking up to Mikasa looking over him <3 Eren and Mikasa seeing themselves in those children, they both look so upset and in Eren case shocked (this scene hit me hard for somewhat obvious reasons (username) and because it shows just how far both Eren and Mikasa have come, yet it all still ended in defeat, and Eren is reminded of how he used to be, and it shakes him to his core. Petra's father (holy crap, this scene was a heavy hitter, and still is after watching again) Eren begins to cry (again, only in front of Mikasa) and she HOLDS HIS HAND, frothed at the mouth at this scene (semi - srs) Overall 9.5/10 episode for me, because it made me ride an emotional rollercoaster, anything. That can make me feel so much has to be good, plus that action sequence at the start, cot dam I love to rewatch this episode. |
| The Saddest Episode in this anime... Dem feels... |

But it's not like his foot will be ruined forever. He should be able to fight again eventually. Yeah.. but that eventually would likely to be after so many chapters of manga and so many episodes of anime. orz Well at least we have that spin off manga with Levi as MC coming out soon. |

I felt like I was a victim of this (Damn you GIT)  |

| sldkfjsd the filler though :| |

| Very sad episode :( |

| Who gives a shit if it's a filler? It was a very good episode and that's all that matters. You don't have to follow the source material to a tee, for Christ's sake. |

I can't give a 100 percent on this information, but it seems that Isayama Hajime actually might have written the extra scenes that appeared in this episode. Even before I heard such a thing, I, a long-time manga reader, was thrilled at the extras in this episode. Didn't seem like filler to me...had more of an impact this way. |

Don't worry, it's been confirmed that Isayama was part of writing the 'filler' extras. It's not Isayama or his manga that I have anything against, though. It's only with quite a number of the manga readers. Let me remind you, though, that a lot of the people have jumped onto the manga bandwagon ever since the anime started, so my problem isn't against anyone who's been a manga reader for any certain amount of time - it's those people that complain about specific parts of the manga that, when adapted to anime, is all up to interpretation and thinking about a more varied presentation. I mean, seriously, where else do you see people whine about "lipstick" lips and how it destroys the character and how 'immersed' some fans are with the character itself? Really? It might be exaggerated, but some of them just think that every single panel is too precious to change (no matter how much it can be improved upon), let alone having to add 'fillers' that didn't have any single panel in the manga at all. It makes me sad that because of this mentality, some people just can't seem to accept and actually appreciate how brilliant this episode is. |

It makes me sad that because of this mentality, some people just can't seem to accept and actually appreciate how brilliant this episode is. Actually, in my opinion the anime went above and beyond needed adaption--some scenes you can place a manga panel directly on top of and receive the same image! I did see lots of complaints saying that the girls looked like they were wearing makeup and that they were too pretty--(Gosh, I'm sorry they're SO PRETTY) but one has to understand that unlike manga, anime has to cater to a wider audience, so of course the females were...enhanced a bit. Not too much, so I don't find it a big deal, or a deal at all. Ehh, I guess some fans want to show off that they're 'different' and know it all, at least that how it seems sometimes. I like the anime a lot, which is surprising for me, who doesn't watch too much anime, and this episode was great. |

Fluffyman said: sim0n2170 said: Why was the female titan crying? I like to think that she crys because she realized that all the people she killed died for absolutely nothing since she failed to capture Eren. As much as i hate her i know that she isnt pure evil because she spared armins life twice so she actually does care about people/isnt killing for pleasure..i think she has a !VERY! good reason since she is willing to kill so many to capture eren..still alot of secrets. Crying because she feels bad for relentlessly murdering hoardes of soldiers? Fugg that crybaby feelings crap. She didn't seem so sad when she shouldered that guy into a tree, or whilst soccer kicking Auruo into next week, swinging that guy into the ground, or playing fucking yoyo with that one dude She's obviously crying because Levi broke her tear glands when he shanked her in the eyes. There's no other reasonable explanation. That or she's a really, really bad loser |

| "Aiming for the mark takes precision, balance, and patience." ....Screw that, let's shoot the damn thing! |
| Man, this episode was great and gloomy. The scene were Eren saw the excited kids from wagon, especially it was followed by the flashbacks... It got me. |

RaurosFalls said: Throwing out bodies to lighten the weight and be able to escape? wtf. It would have made more sense if they were using them as bait or something. Dafuq?, you are critizing basic laws of physics. |

| So gar for Levi. This episode was so godlike. It's a shame that the series had wonky pacing at times. |
RaurosFalls said: pralan said: Dafuq?, you are critizing basic laws of physics. <sarcasm>Oh, so this is a physics problem? As in like... "You're being chased by a titan in horse-drawn cart. The titan chases you at speed x and your horse pulls your cart at speed x lower than titan speed. The cart weighs x kg and you have 30 dead bodies on board each weighing 70kg. If the horse exerts a pulling force x on the cart, and the force of friction the other way is x, how many dead bodies will you have to throw off to escape the titan?" I see, that makes perfect sense. I shouldn't have doubted it</sarcasm> Sorry, I'm just a little grumpy these days Less weight=more speed, simple as that |

RaurosFalls said: Wow, I'm surprised everyone reacts so positively to this episode. This episode has actually turned me off from this show. I was willing to put up with the slow pace of it before because it still held some interest but everything that happened after he cut Eren out seemed completely pointless. I could tell it was filler. It's going to be 100 episode before it starts getting to the interesting parts, I don't have the patience for that. Throwing out bodies to lighten the weight and be able to escape? wtf. It would have made more sense if they were using them as bait or something. Though I guess maybe titans don't eat dead people or something... I think I'm going to finish Oreimo S2 instead, regardless of how jarringly different it is from this show lol You know there's only 2 more episodes left of the season right? 100 episodes of filler when only 2 episodes are left. You're trolling. |

theblur said: So gar for Levi. This episode was so godlike. It's a shame that the series had wonky pacing at times. The pacing is definitely suspect at times, and is honestly my only issue with the series. I've felt like in some places 2 episodes could've been 1 since progression was so small I was very hype for 22 after 21, it didn't really live up to expectations for me but it would be hard to match that level of intensity for 2 episodes whilst progressing the story. There were parts in this ep that were well done still like the different emotions conveyed by the characters following all the events that happened As for 23 tonight whenever it gets subbed I'm expecting it to go back to the slow pace of episodes 16-20 including another annoying cliffhanger, and will carry on till the end of 25 where I'm anticipating something big will take place, no idea what they'll decide to end it on though which makes it all the more exciting for me (having not read the manga and all) |
| Levi was even more effective at stopping the female titan than Mikasa was, but then broke his ankle because of her. I'm starting to see why fans seem to like him so much. |

| i cried at that petra getting body thrown out of cart part then cried even more when levi had ivans uniform patch then cried EVEN MORE when petra's dad was talking to lrvi T.T |

| That concludes the expedition. The disastrous outcome of the secret mission left the Levi squad, humanity's best, decimated. On paper, the unit took a vicious mauling with the leader injured, and all other members aside from Eren dead. That was a big blow for the Scouting Legion in more ways than one. Was that Petra's body among the corpses they dumped along the way? Levi seemed to be particularly spited in that one shot that he can't even bring her body back for burial. Seems even he secretly had a soft spot for her. I don't remember any of this stuff being in the manga, but it was well executed and rather hard-hitting for anime original content. Like rubbing salt into the wounds of our battered characters. |
| Watching Levi walk while being talked to about marriage was just very... Bitter. |
