Well, that was one hell of a bleak episode, but it was also exceptionally well done. I'm just hoping that at least some of this effort actually proves to be worthwhile in the end.

This Part is a jaw-dropping scene when I read the manga, and I'm not disappointed when It got it animated... The Direction are so great, music, animation, everything...

I'm crying when Erwin giving his speech... Really good, easily the best episode in the season so far.

So sad about Erwin :( really the heart of this series for me, I wonder who's gonna take that torch from him... I don't believe that Levi will take Beast down and that makes it even sadder... when does Eren realise he's the Coordinate? Maybe him being on top of the wall now will enable him to see the massacre below, and he's gonna do something unexpected...
The one thing they should've done after blowing Armored's neck up was to drag Reiner out and fricking quarter his body - they've seen regenerating limbs and stuff, why trust that it's enough to blow his upper body up and leave him in this armor?? Stupid.
Also, I find Beast's choice of words weird and puzzling - why "perfect game"? Are they gonna insist that baseball exists in this universe?? Or is it like... are the titans from the other side of the wall in another era? Is it a society that evolved way quicker than our protagonists' and they have things we consider modern (or at least XIXth century) like baseball? But why not modern weapons then?:p Or am I reading too much into it, and it's just an anachronism because the Japanese love baseball so much :p

One thing I just wanna say too was that this episodes direction was phenomenal. The scenes in the first half showing the Beast Titan massacring the scouts with the boulders was so, so fucking well done it was unreal. This ep handled the absolute dread humanity was feeling against these foes absolutely perfectly. Still have chills over the first scene where the rocks fly by Levi in slow-motion followed by the dying throes of the scouts.

If I recall correctly they never show him getting executed. He just disappeared. Beast titan seems to be the leader so he must be very knowledgeable. Like Erwin's Dad was. It was just something I thought would be cool.


What is your view then on him killing his own son ?

We don't know if he's dead yet. I mean unless you read the manga which I haven't.


Neither have i but i don't think he will survive.. as he was prepared to die to get away from this hell so i don't think he will survive tbh.

The story has kinda made it quite clear that the MPs torture and leave anyone to rot or execute them if they know any type of secret, they're normally not that lenient on prisoners who know things that could cause a lot of trouble, so him escaping is not likely. There has been an off screen death tho, Levis mom in the first part.

I know this day will come. Erwin, big salute for you...that speech was amazing and look at the soldier, they're all ready to face their deaths...that's just crazy but that's the only option. I still think that maybe they can use Eren but with that condition I think it's impossible. And Erwin, big honor for you...

Basically, Connie was saying that Eren's house could be destroyed along with the rest of the city, which he omitted to "Eren's house could be...". In Japanese, the sentence is "Eren no ie ga..." which sounds similar to "Eren no Yeager".

Great episode. At first I was like "Heyyy, it seems really convenient that Bestial Titan is just standing around insteal of attacking" but having a titan just throwing rocks and killing everything in sight is scary...

I honestly don't see how Eren can win...

Just as a side note :
Maybe it's just me but I don't remember there were some Titans so close to the wall just standing in a straight line ? (when they all appear, they are close to the colossal titan and I don't think there is much point to have titan near the wall when Colossal Titan is playing baseball with boulder). Seems a little too "convenient" but since this episode was great, ok, Levi, time to go hunting !

these titans appeared with the beast titan in the first episode from his both sides... and basically making half a circle from the beast to the walls... he doesnt want anyone to escape under his nose does he 😉
If u speak about the colossal.. he is in the other side of the wall bro... in shiganshina district. .. remember the view we've been given when erwin was standing on the wall


Well, I re-watched the end of episode 50. If you look at 22:07 (just before the to be continued), you can see that, when they appear, the closest titan is at least 100-200 meters away from the nearest house. The "funny thing" is, they only show the titan close to the wall in a line in the "drawing version" when they explain at 21:14 in the 51 episode.

But, maybe it's because the circle is so great that each time they show a POV from where Erwin is standing you only see a straight line in front of them and not the actual circle.

The only thing I can say for sure is that, at the time of the appearance, there were no Titans near the wall for at least 200 hundred meters.

Basically, TV watchers in japan are getting tired of animated gore, so thats why you're seeing a lot more anime censorship these days. I could be remembering wrong though

Great episode.

Anyone know why they choose to alternate between 2D and 3D colossal? Why not just stick with one style? Also, I noticed that they animated the CT in some parts when he was 2D. Isn’t it easier to animate 3D?

I just got done reading the latest manga chapters, and I won't spoil anything, but the series gets A LOT more intense and better from this point. The only sad thing is that it's going to take the anime forever to catch up to it (while the manga chapters update monthly).

Read news that WIT studio is going to stop working on Shingeki no Kyojin. I'm guessing another studio is going to get it instead. It's going to get passed around like other series have.

Anyways, damn that hole in Erwin's side. He doesn't have to worry about eating anymore. He doesn't have a stomach anymore.

Levi about to go wild in the next episode.

The final 5 minutes were just as good as in the manga, and the last scene really hurt.

What I'm scared about now though is the next episode. The finale of the fight against the Beast Titan is better suited to be at the end of the episode to have maximum impact. Just like epsiode four's.
The studio would need to fill in the other ~15mins somehow first.

@ketaketaketa
Single phrase replies are bad as they serve no purpose (when being positive) in a "discussion" thread. When being negative they have no other purpose than hate and baiting.
There's no ground to work with that IF someone has the urge to quote you.
In your case though it's somewhat a grey zone as you asked a question, albeit an off topic one. Hope that helps.
