"oh hey btw i'm the armored titan". Are you kidding me? This entire episode was just a trainwreck of poor writing. It baffles me that anyone can defend the writing quality of this series after this episode.

I laughed so hard when Reiner just casually told that he's the Armored Titan like it was nothing.

Yeah what the actual fuck, it was like the Author just wanted to tell us who were the colossal titan and the armored titan already


It is just as Eren and Bertholdt said, Reiner is going crazy and doesn't realize the consequences of his actions.

Waited years to see this scene, they animated it perfectly! Seeing mikasa tear through both of them like that was worth the wait. And their transformations were so epic, only wish there was no CGI for the colossal titan.

When I read this chapter 2 years ago, I couldn't feel Reiner's madness. But now with voices and music, everything was well done.

I've been waiting for this since 2 years.

Stupid move by Mikasa, did she really think she could kill them like that? :P
Plot finally thickens for real. Had forgotten that Reiner reveal their true id like that.

It's hard not to spoil non manga readers :P
Is it spoiling to tell that certain things won't happen in this season, and that people will have to wait until season 3 for such? :P

Did any other non-manga readers see this reveal coming? After it was revealed that titans were living among humans in Season 1, I was pretty sure those 2 would be titans, mostly due to them being unusually close to each other and the hair of the colossal looking exactly the same as Reiner's. I never expected them to just be like "yeah we are the titans" just casually.

Even though I saw it coming, this episode was so hype, CGI Colossal titan didn't look that bad in all honesty, next episode looks even better.

5/5


Saw Reiner coming (OP2, Female Titan incident gave it away), but Bertolt was unexpected. Bertolt was a suspect because of his association with Reiner, but he doesn't look like Colossal Titan at all, and he's no last boss material (at this point anyway), so I dismissed it.


Reiner is a warrior, that'll be clear from now on even more. But Berthold is a friend, a bro, someone you want to have to your side due to his loyalty.

About the colossal, that's the best part, Eren, Reiner, Annie resembles their titans and that killed the mistery before the reveal, but because how the Colossal works (they'll explain it in S4 xD) Berthold doesn't resemble him and that's what should have been for every shifter.

Yea, so true. I mean this CGI titan was in show for like 10 sec. They've got 4 years for this crappy CGI moment. Shame.

Still this show is amazing. :D

AHHHHH I WAITED 4 FUCKING YEARS FOR THIS.

And what do you mean there's still people that haven't been spoiled for this. I was spoiled when season 1 was airing (or close to when it finished, don't remember anymore)

Anyway, breathtaking, Mikasa's crazy face, Reiner slowly losing it, Bert's desperation, everything was on point.

Now onto the fight.

I thought that the reveal was done perfectly-
and I thought the CGI colossal titan looked rather formidable... although it appears I am alone in that opinion. Oh well, I suppose everyone has different tastes in animation, especially when it comes to anime.

The last half of this episode definitely appeared as if it had received a significant amount of attention. After all, this episode marks the greatest tonal shift in the anime so far. Despite knowing that Anne was the female Titan, no information about the goal of the three (enemy?) titan-shifters had been given so generously up until this episode.

My gay boy Reiner was hurt mentally there and I felt for him.. Man why does this have to happen to my favorite character..
I just hope they'll find a way to resolve this without anyone actually dying.. We need to know their reasons, Eren don't go too crazy please..

Well, it's been a long time coming so any surprise for manga readers has been thrown out the window at least a few years ago now. Overall it was just as absurd as I remember the reveal to be. PTSD Reiner giving away all the secrets and forcing everything into motion.

Not too impressed with the Kyoujin animations, as the 3D rendering was made like it came out from the game, which kind of didn't match with the rest of the animation. However cheaper those shots may be, it just felt off.

Wondering just how far we'll actually get into by the end of this season.

> I'm the armored titan and he's the colossal titan.
Our primary goal was to ensure all of humanity was wiped out, but now there's no need for that. We killed your mother, but leave it in the past and come with us to enjoy the pleasures of the life.
As someone said once, the most easiest thing of the world is to create and feed a mystery. Hard is to conclude this one as well as it started. Though that ''primary'' looks doubtful, I really disliked how one of the most important secrets in the show was revealed.

"We were young?" Holy shit, nobody is too young to break a fucking wall and kill a lot of people, lol

My GOD did I get chills. That was a nearly perfect adaptation. It flawlessly captures how the original chapter was when this happened.

After Utgard Castle, you think everything's going fine. You find out Ymir's actually alive, and there really was no hole in the wall. Then, amidst Hanji's conversation, Reiner tells Eren the truth in the background. You're confused, so you rewind it, only to see that you read it correctly: "I'm the Armored Titan, and he's the Colossal Titan." Then, it cuts to a flashback, a flashback that makes you realize how evident it was that they were titans. You slowly put your thoughts together and by the end of the flashback your heart is pumping and you're ready to see some action. Reiner charges toward Eren but Mikasa comes out of nowhere, and you're still excited af, and seeing her about to stab Bertholdt just leaves you in awe. Then, the transformation finally happens, leaving you on the most gigantic cliffhanger ever that any series has ever done.

Only problem is the CGI Colossal Titan. Other than that, 5/5.

I literally love how Bertholdt does nothing in the plot in his human form (even Reiner is more talkative) but his titan form is the main cause of everything.

Been waiting for this to get adapted for a while and it did not disappoint!
I was at the edge of my seat towards the end there! Next week, it's Eren vs Reiner!!
Mikasa was a badass!
And the song used towards the end was right in point! Loved it!

Every episode never fails to make my hand shaking and freezing. Armin is smarter than I thought. I did not expected them just revealed their identities out of nowhere. Eren was still trying to believe in them just like he did to Annie. That music started when Reiner shows his arm was so epic. Mikasa was fast as always. Next episode!

I've waited for 4 fucking years for that revelation and I loved how they made it as close as possible to the manga, and the fact that I preferred the anime version. Fuuuuuuck! Daaaamn, they will literally cover the whole Clash of the Titans arc. I was literally screaming and it's 2AM here! Haaalp!

Praise Wit Studio. Praise Hiroyuki Sawano for the Vogel im Kafig remix. Praise Hajime Isayama-senpai.

Fuuuuuck!
