AyumiVk said: People shiting on eren for not transforming and crying are just straight up ignorant and stupid. The guy just remembered he ate his own father and that if he was eaten by historia the humanity he was trying to save by killing the titans would finally be free from them. That was eren's goal since season 1 and now someone tells him all he has to do for that to happen is die, and of course because he is so emotionally damaged already, he agreed. YOU, you are not the one in eren's place and so you dont even have the right to condemn him from how he acted just because you didnt like it. This is why i mainly hate people who only care about the action, since they cant stop to analyse the story even if only for a brief moment to actually understand whats going on and why. That aside, seeing best girl Historia on her badass scene again after years from reading that manga part was so hype. This exactly. I could not agree more. Thank you for putting it in words. I don't understand how someone would /not/ be emotionally unstable in Eren's shoes. Seriously, with the shock from the influx of information, of course the emotional turmoil within him would make him break down. his reasons for relinquishing himself to Historia made sense. |

Thought you're talking about the whole season but |

| Yes it has. https://twitter.com/i/moments/1026748655640821760 His talking about this arc... |
I know. I edited my post. Thought they were talking about the whole season for a second. And keep in mind that they cut out a lot of conversations. |
Emerald_WinterSep 3, 2018 10:02 AM
With this pacing. I think so. |

| Best episode so far, historia is awesome and the voice acting was top notch |
 |
Oh you have a point there. |

| I will say chapter 71 and 72 is apart of the uprising arc, so this arc could still end on episode 12 and not 10. |
| Levi squad absolutely killed Kenny & Co. It´s a hardened crew still left of the Scouts. They take absolutely no bullshit anymore. The Levi and Mikasa duo is an army of their own, I mean goddamn. How Eren´s hate turned into grief like that was heavy, he was ready to die. And something died in Jean when he killed that guy. Historia finally had it, her determined and true side was great to see, if I had been her I would probably felt the same. You could even say that happened due to Ymir. And Hanji. She has earned a spot as one of my favourite characters. I have liked her since the beginning but never expected her to take such central roll. Super smart, manic, a wee bit crazy, forward, gutsy, and has one hell of punch. Just awesome. |
 |
| Great episode. Loved the action at the beginning. Kenny is a very interesting character. I felt bad for eren. But at least historia saw through her father's bullshit. |
| Eren VA was amazing, i need to hold my tear. |

| I was thinking that Historia was way too easily manipulated. She'd make a perfect puppet Queen. But thanks god she snapped out of it! |
Priestess_Alva said: Wow this episode is awesome. Historia did the right thing. Soundtrack is very good too. bitch could have saved humanity, but ok |
| Amazing episode, this season keep getting better. |

| Hory shet! This was perfect. I'm amazed. |

Username23489023 said: You're going way out of context with this one honestly. W123 said: I assume there can be many people with the last name 'Jaeger'. And in regards to the the nobles, there's no way that they could have known that Grisha allowed himself to be eaten by his son thus possessing the Founding Power. Most of your questions can be answered by the use of common sense - if you can muster the courage to use what little you have of it. Ok, lets say it’s a common name. Why not round up all Jaegers and interrogate and execute them until they find Eren, then use him as leverage against his father. |
| lol people are taking these questions seriously. |

| My only gripe about this episode was the fact that the serum can be taken orally. Why go through all that trouble trying to inject someone while it can be easily ingested through the mouth. The father licking the ground ruined it for me; it would've been believable if he gathered the serum in his palm with pieces of glass and metal then squeezing his hand around it causing his blood to mix with it. |

| Really good episode, Levi got to hurt Kenny, an intense fighting at the beginning of the episode. Also Historia took a decision about what is the correct answer and her answer is no to control humanity and continue a legacy thas has no head (they don't even remember how they started to do what they do). Now Rodd had contact with the titan liquid and is gonna fight for that power and legacy. Very intense, let's watch what is coming next. |
 |
| Ok so Rod Reiss is a nutcase ... but why didn't they eradicate the titans 100 years ago ? Confused about the part with God etc. |
luccide said: There's something beyond that actually (which hasn't been revealed). No need to rush though, we only need to stay tuned for what's to come next. :)There's actually no right or wrong for Lord Reiss case, just like Thanos's beliefs. If titans doesn't exist.. that means human won't be united and sooner or later war against each other will start. Blood will spill and everything will keep repeating century after century. luccide said: Indeed. My brother (anime-only) asked me whether the episode ended in a cliffhanger. "Oh yes! It'd be better to wait until next week," I said with a grin. He looked kinda annoyed since he knows well that I read the manga.Goooooseeeebummmpppss!! 22 minutes are simply too short for this show!!! |

| First Erwin and now Historia... some supporting characters of this anime are ridiculously cool and hardcore. And now the final part of the ending is even more epic. go snk |

Maybe the author want to build the idea "the quality of the titans depends on the recipe and the dose they receive" ... what happens, if it's obtained by licking (partially) or and some other reason; because his mouth was already bleeding |

Username23489023 said: If the king can control memories, how do we even know all this backstory is real? Why would Eren’s father leave him all alone without explaining any of this? Don’t they have pen and paper? Put a little note in his lunchbox. If the noble bloodline traits are so strong how did ninja girls’s parent die so easy from thieves? Thieves that were easily defeated by children. The 'king' is Rod Reiss's family. The previous King was Frieda, who died. His bloodline is immune to memory altering. Eren's father didn't leave him all alone, when he gave Eren the Titan Serum, Eren ate him. And yes he does have a pen and paper, and yes he did explain in some way, they just didn't get there yet. Their bloodline is strong but they aren't naturally strong, they need that one moment in their lives where they snap, awakening godlike natural instincts and strength. And both the thieves and Mikasa's parents where ambushed in some way. Edit: Just gonna go on real quick and explain that Cavern-like place is made of the same material as the walls, isn't indestructible. The material around Annie isn't either, the problem is a different one. |

Username23489023 said: All shifters with the exception of the Founding Titan don't remember the moment of their transformation. The Founding Titan is the only one where the memories of previous holders are part of the tiitan himself so to say.tzarye14 said: 4th question: The memory delete stuff doens't work in the Ackerman, the asians and the Reiss family. When a shifter acquires the shifting powers they don't remember almost anything (most likely do to the shock). But Historia’s sister erased Historia’s memories of her, and her father brought them back. Historia's memories came back not because her father brought them back but because she touched Eren which is the current holder of the founding titan. Unlike Eren, which is not from royal blood so he can't acess the memories of any previous holder including the first king, Historia with the help of the crystal cave was able to regain her memories. It's a pretty dificult situation to explain. The manga did a better job if you want my opinion. Username23489023 said: About Annie, wait for the next episode an you will see why she could use the crystal.Roy_Cybertron said: Lol , what that guy said was hilarious. He indeed thinks he is a smart-ass and trying to stand out from the crowd.That's just straight up nitpicking. Everyone knows that no work can be perfect completely , and perfection can never be achieved. There is always little inconsistencies. What we should really care about is the story and the characters. I just wanted to give one explanation that swords and bare fists can't do any damage to the crystals. As from the today's ep , only guns had done damange to the crystal and that are dents ONLY. And titans don't possess guns.So ,thye can't break the walls. And even if they tried to get Annie out of the crystal but using guns , then they coyuld have killed her. Hum. The king said the first of his line created the crystal chamber and walls with their royal bloodline trait. So Annie, blond girl from s1, is royalty? Another thing to think about, is if they knew who Eren was, considering he has the same last name as his father, and his name would show up on military rosters which the nobles could read at any time, why did they let him level up and get stronger? Why didn’t they grab him when he was noob and let Historia eat him then. Before they became friends/lovers whatever they are now. Furthermore, why would the king even let his daughter join the military? They were being hunted and killed by Eren’s father. It would seem dangerous to keep your only heir in the same place as the son of the guy killing your family. Rod didn't know at the time who Eren's father was. He must have only find out later. Historia joined the military because she wanted. Even though she was a half royal blood she had no connection to her father. Rod may have let her live because he thought that he might need her later while we was searching for Grisha Yeager who could not even be inside the walls anymore. He only finded out about Eren when he used the coordinate to control those mindless titans at the end of the second season. As far as he knew, Eren had nothing to do with the massacre. Also, Eren's father did say something to the royal family in that cave and what he said might be the cause for Rod not even try to look for him. What he said will only come up at the end of the season. |

| Mikasa and Historia were legendary this episode. I hope Hange is OK. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
QuietComfort said: I don't know about that. It really seemed like her father would have been controlling her, and/or wasn't being totally honest with her about the whole save humanity thing. nah lol it was pretty obvious why she shouldn't do that. The ideology of her ancestors would just live on within her and nothing would change. |
| Omg I agree with the peeps who said this was the best episode of the season yet! - The smoke screen idea was genius (Im looking at you Armin) - Mikasa being the badass she is finally - The fight between Levi and Kenny was epic - Hanji noooooooo?! - Finally got some light shed on the Titans connection to the Reiss family (I think) - And last but not least poor Eren and Historia actually womaning up! Her bae points just shot up so much XD Light-Yagami-God said: Dayum bruh, I don't even know anymore who's lying and who's telling the truth. Lol and this. |

Thank you for putting it into words, I wanted to write the same thing out myself! I was genuinely impressed Eren didn't fight back unlike some cliche protagonists, because that is how it should be. He is written as a truly broken character and I think this shows how great his character's writing is. Why people are upset about how he reacted I cannot understand. |
| IMO the best AoT episode. An intense fight and a choice to effect the whole world. And that ending/cliffhanger. |

| Good job Historia! |

keragamming said: Best episode so far this season, this one top episode 2 for me, and I love the soundtrack! same frodo same :p |
 |
| Are we gonna say “this is the best episode!” in every single damn episode? lol yeah this is ATTACK ON TITAN simply baby eren he suffered enough, this is your time you have to save them naw get up boy Did you guys think than kenny’s squad belittle levi’s scout? I am a little disappointed of them like they were in mess completely.. and I don’t know sometimes I feel like kenny don’t want to kill Levi and leave him get his chance to win Edit: it’s shame on me to forget about Hange.. she’s strong she will be ok that hit is in her shoulder just .. she will be fine :( |

| they animated the historia scene perfectly, SHE SNAPPED!! AND WOW THAT SOUNDTRACK/OST!! |
  |
| I don't really like Eren's attitude during this episode. It feels out of character. This feels like a point for Eren to make a speech about how they need to take back the outside from the Titans, and all that. Sure, his dad did a fucked up thing, but I think the ends justify the means. |
| 5/5... 4.5 points earned by Hiroyuki Sawano alone. |

| That was fucking awesome, more details regarding Eren and Historia. |
 |
| The best part was the fight between Kenny and Levi's group, both teams had a couple of badasses. Jean just sliced off that guy's head. Also, the part when Historia smacked Eren upside the head for crying while she was trying to unchain him. Historia almost got brainwashed by her father. He's going to be a titan now, ya'll see that long ass spine? Kenny salty af because he can't become a titan shifter like Eren. I like how bitter and petty he can be but he's still a badass. Historia, Mikasa and Armin are all best girls. |
| 臭い- |
| Seeing Historia's moment completely animated is so much more epic than the manga, absolutely loved it. Historia is still my fav character in the series <3 This entire season so far has just been great, am really loving this arc. After this episode I think I can definitely understand why they decided to go with "Red Swan" as the new opening. The more intimate, emotional tone of this season so far fits Red Swan much more than the typical epic opening the series is known for. |

Bibimbapski said: Kenny was pissed off because he learnt that even if he were to become a Titan shifter and eat Eren as he planned all along, he wouldn't be able to use the Progenitor Titan's power just like Eren's case. Also, he might not be able to turn into a Titan at all in the first place, due to his Ackerman origin. The best part was the fight between Kenny and Levi's group, both teams had a couple of badasses. Jean just sliced off that guy's head. Also, the part when Historia smacked Eren upside the head for crying while she was trying to unchain him. Historia almost got brainwashed by her father.

Historia, Mikasa and Armin are all best girls. And, Armin is definitely NOT a best girl. You should know 'that'! sunsetbridge said: Yeah, it perfectly fits the theme for this first arc. I love the refreshing tone; it feels like we finally get some breaks from the Titan's terror. Well, it seems we'll very likely get the typical Opening Song for the second arc. Oops, spoiler alert! :)After this episode I think I can definitely understand why they decided to go with "Red Swan" as the new opening.
