O shit, so Ymir can transform too O_O But she's doing it to protect her beloved Christa, so she's apparently not a "bad", anti-human Titan like Annie? Anyway, animation of that scene was just crazy!

I wonder what that part about canned food was about, it seems it had some weird alphabet that "normal" people don't know? I honestly can't remember if there was something about it in the first season, so I feel totally clueless @_@

Can't wait for a flashback episode next week! (which is not something I usually say...)

I'd say this one is the episode I liked the least out of the last 4. Some pretty bad lines of dialogue. Also it's weird that Ymir isn't part of the whole deal. She's just a concealed titan that will get rid of those now?


I guess this is the right time to suggest watching the OVA (Ilse's Diary) again, if you haven't already. If you have, Hanji's and Levi's reactions in episode 3 when Mikasa mentioned Ymir should have made sense to you.

Oh yeah, that thing with the knife. The moment she said she'd do something about the titans and didn't threat anyone else, I was pretty sure she'd jump off the tower and do that. :D

And I talked a lot about Ymir in my previous post, but I guess Krista will play a big role in the upcoming episodes. Too bad there's very little information on that so far.

Also, inb4 the season ends and Eren's key serves no purpose yet again. I'm saying it right now, Eren's key will be just like Nisekoi's locket! SnK loves to set up a whole bunch of mysterious plot points, but it doesn't seem to care that much about answering a lot of the questions it raises. I wonder how much the manga has already answered.


Ahhh, the manga has answered plenty! History of the titans, the basement, Levi, etc. And Eren's key is the... key to those answers. Yeah. I realized how that sounded. Unfortunately tho they won't present themselves this season.

Omg i hope she become a big & fat titan , not a small useless one


A titan is not a dick, an intelligent titan can't be useless.
Smaller means faster here ( remember the colossal titan ), and as we saw, her titan isn't big at all ( around 5 meters I think ).

Yup :/ maybe it can throw fire as a dragon (bad english ^^ im french)

Ymir's transformation was ALL THAT! Loved it! However, her Titan form is hideous!! You can't even tell if she's male or female in that form.

The sexiest Titans are Eren,
!! Can't wait to see their transformations!

I read this bit of the manga so long ago, that despite knowing how things will go in general lines, I can still be massively surprised when things happen since I don't always remember exactly when or in what situation they will happen. All these little details come back to life.

That Reiner moment with carrying that titan was fucking badass.
Also, the Ymir reveal was revealed very nicely. Looking forward to the action next ep.

This episode was great but while watching these people getting
my heart started beating at the same time and even though the ending just ended 'To Be Continued'. They got me really mad like "OMG!" before I stepped my foot hard on the floor, at least I enjoyed it but I still have patient to wait another episode duh.

This episode was excellent. For the first time this season I felt like I was back in 2013 when I knew nothing about the world of AoT and each new chapter or episode was a complete novelty to me, despite having been a manga reader for years now. It felt really satisfying and a little unnerving (but in a good way!), because each scene packed a lot of punch: from Ymir and Reiner's conversation to Nanaba's death to Ymir's gorgeous transformation etc. Really good stuff.

Nanaba's death though. Fucking killed me, man. She was probably abused as a kid. ;_;

The soldier's deaths were heartbreaking in the manga but even worse in the anime. Isayama strips them to their bare human instincts when close to death which I find both intriguing and frightening at the same time. A lot of shounen and seinen have their resident badasses die in a dignified way but the fact that they succumb to fear humanizes them and I enjoy that. Nanaba's death, in particular, was heart-wrenching, reminding me of Petra's in season 1.


This. This is well said.

Basically, because she doesn't care about anyone but her self and Christa


Or she was hoping that things wouldn't turn out the way they did, forcing her to show her hand. I believe Ymir thought that the Scouts would be able to take out the amount of titans that had originally been there, but when the Beast Titan threw boulders at the castle that hope went to shit.


I don't think so, she really doesn't care about anyone except christa they will explain it in the next episode im trying to not spoil anything, you can call it "character development".

Glad they went back and added in the conversation with Ymir and Reiner. The rearranging of scenes has actually been a smart move so far and it looks like they'll be continuing that with the Ymir and Krista flashback next episode(which actually came before Ymir's transformation in the manga). Ending the episode on the transformation was a great idea. Overall, an excellent episode. Seeing this arc animated really is a treat.

Also R.I.P Nanaba and Gelgar, I really wish they could have stuck around longer.

Fantastic episode. Best one yet. So bloody intense & scary.

Reiner opening the door & that Titan staring him down was frightening. The thing of nightmares. DAMN the way he lifted that Titan was awesome. That is some strength.
LOL Reiner wants to marry Krista. Well who wouldn't. Truly an Angel.

The Beast Titan throwing shit is annoying as hell, but so dangerous.
More Titans coming.
R.I.P Gelgar & Nanaba. Seeing her apologize to her father before getting eaten was so sad.

YOOO Ymir transforming into a Titan was awesome.
Can't wait for next week.

That titan at the beginning who ripped the ear of some another titan was creepy as hell lol.
Anyways, this was a pretty thrilling episode and that reveal at the end was great. Gotta say I felt so bad for the poor dude only trying to have a drink, he was literally trolled till the very end
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...

Has anyone else made the correlation that the titan that ate Reiner's friend in his flashback is Christa? The resemblance is very close.
but seriously love every episode of this show, poor Ymir but I hope Christa lives. the "gotta marry her" line omg ship them now

God, that last scene with Ymir turning into a titan was much better than I remember it in the manga. Or is it just me?
Idk, the soundtrack and visuals made it so epic for me.
This is why AoT anime > manga. In my opinion of course.

They don't know about Nanaba's squad being stationed there at this point. Hange only said last ep that they're going to Utgard Castle since there's the tower that they can use to get the overall view near the Wall.

That took her long enough, it was obvious that she was a titan, though it's understandable why she wouldn't reveal herself. A pretty good episode, just disappointing that it ended so soon though, I was really starting to enjoy it. Hopefully next week will pick up the quality even more 'cause this is getting good, I'm enjoying it a lot more than the first season.

A good episode, but I'm wondering about how easily they're going to telegraph some things. Namely...

I posed some theories of mine to a friend who has caught up on the manga but she told me I was pretty much 0% correct on any of it, so I'm curious to see what will happen... EDIT: Well, she said she was mistaken and apparently she's way behind, so... posting my speculation since people seem to like that in these threads?

Speculation follows:

I'm still yet to see what they've "added" in the animation - budget issues couldn't be anymore obvious at this point. The solid plotline of the manga is the main reason why this episode was good.

Reiner's "marry her" was so awkwardly placed; more elaboration could have fixed the flow...
