| Sure this is a dilemma, you just can’t expect anyone from Armin, Connie, Jean or Mikasa to shake hands with Annie and company to kill their very own ones, Yeagerists that is. But well anything to save humanity for now. Fooling Floch… well that’s a tall task and of course it didn’t take that long for the genius to figure out what’s happening behind his back. Still it was too late, his crew in shatters now. |
 |
| Floch's scene with the Azumabito lady was poorly done, but Armin and Connie's scene with the two Jaegerists was awesome, exactly like in the manga. Also, the 2D titans were INSANE, honestly WIT level. Sucks that they switched back so quickly to the 3D ones. |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| Another build-up episode but man, what an episode it was. The first half was just another dialogue-heavy episode but the other half had a lot of action in it and Holy shit, the Omine direction once again popped off. What a legend this man is. Great job, Omine. My GOAT. A great fricking episode. Loved it. The music choice, the animation, and the emotions in this episode were so well done. The ending scene with Connie and Armin was so emotional. :'( Just 2 more to go... |
 |
| Man, some of those scenes were tough to watch. Connie managed to strike first and save the day but that just goes to show that they turned out to be the more decisive and perhaps heartless party as opposed to the other. Annie and Reiner's transformations though! It's always a pleasure when they hype it up with some 3D manoeuvre gear moments. And that too, right behind Floch to surprise the life out of him. That's what I like to see! Commander Magath's bow to persuade Armin and co. was quite touching too. I like that little peek to Gabi too. Meanwhile, badass Kiyomi-san. Poor Floch, xD. Yay for more Mikasa entrance scenes! Just two more episodes to go, let's go! Expecting the movie announcement or something of the sort in two weeks.

| This episode was a lot more intense than usual. Magath really beat the shit outta Yelena but I do like his development in this episode. I will never understand Floch simps. Floch is so damn annoying in this episode. I guess his power thinks that destroying the outside world would be best for him? But anyways though I do like that scene when he was getting kicked, Azumabito definitely deserves a praise for this, she do be a badass granny after all. Mikasa appeared in a surprise attack style and her segment were pretty cool. The Armin and Connie with the other comrades scene was really hard to watch, Connie was shooting his comrades to the deed though it’s reasonable in their position especially for a long run to save other people’s lives. For the better or the worse. I did feel the manga’s artstyle were a lot more gruesome than in the adaptation but I can still feel the raw emotion when the moment when everyone was in tears and Connie pull up the trigger. Annie and Reiner’s transformation were pretty satisfying and glad to see their inheritence back! Not a bad episode overall. 2 more episodes to go. |
"......If I told you that I was a real witch, would you believe it?"  |
| Connie did nothing wrong, he and the global alliance are not traitors Omine did not storyboard this episode so i guess it shows even though he is the episode director EDIT: let me rephrase that Connie and the alliance are LESS Wrong, they are not traitors for the greater human society |

| Yet another good and intense episode. |
 |
| How cute, Connie and Armin allying with Magath, Annie and Marley to kill their paradisian comrades who they've grown up and fought with. The impact an overnight stew can have on your decision making and allegiance is truly underrated. Oh well, it resulted in the best scene of this episode yet I still dislike that moment. MAPPA didn't even show Kiyomi grabbing Floch's arm to flip him on the ground while he wasn't looking, only the aftermath. They can't stand the Floch slander from Isayama, bless 'em. That whole moment is devoid of logic anyway, Isayama writing yeagerists to be the dumbest jocks alive. The 3DMG movements looked good for the most part but the direction and cuts made these moments less hype than they could've been. I felt the same with the scenes where Annie's FT and Reiner's AT were animated and fighting yeagerists; the way action flows and shots are storyboarded leaves a lot to be desired. And it looks like MAPPA is really ending part 2 with chapter 130 instead of 131, what a shame. |
 |
| Damn, the emotional impact of this episode... Props for Connie's VA for bringing the most out of his character as well his personality. Operation save the world from The Rumbling has been amazing. |
 |
| God DAMN Reiner and Annie transforming and kicking ass was fucking lit!! Felt good to see the Female Titan back in action after so long. Those two showed why they're such a formidable duo. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |

Daz, was shown as a very scared person, but when it came to protect the Trost district, while he was scared as hell, he fought because he had a sister and a family to protect. He then joins the yeagerists, because he things that that way he can protect his family. He was able to survive the terror of the titans only to be killed by some trash, who wants to protect people who want eldians dead. A fucking murderer the global alliance is the lesser evil so lesser murderers in this case |
imbAF said: So I guess if 1000 people want to kill you and your family for no reason at all, you will let them have their way with your family members, simply because they are more in number? You gonna tell your mom to take it because it's more virtuous to do so? Ok Jesus Christ except its not my mom and my own family that im gonna kill so false comparison |

| FANTASTIC EPISODE. LOVED THE TENSION during Traitor sequence. KneelBeforeMe said: It's almost like they are just following what Scouts have already done? To always fight for "humanity"? Ig Scouts should apologize to you for being loyal to what they stand for. It also ain't like they were happy good shoes with Magath LMAO. If not for hange in the previous episode. A conflict would have started. It's not about killing their comrade but more about opposing xenophobia and supporting what Scouts stood for.How cute, Connie and Armin allying with Magath, Annie and Marley to kill their paradisian comrades who they've grown up and fought with.

That whole moment is devoid of logic anyway, Isayama writing yeagerists to be the dumbest jocks alive. And Many of them are rookie recruits, a few of them cowards, like Daz, you can see it in their expression, for many of them the only real battle experience they had was in Marley. In addition, the weapons they have are old, the dispersion is greater than current weapons. All these factors justify the few secs of slow response from the soldiers, just before Mikasa shows up. It's not a big deal. |
    ═════════════════════════════ You're going to be all right. You just stumbled over a stone in the road. It means nothing. Your goal lies far beyond this. Doesn't it? I'm sure you'll overcome this. You'll walk again... soon. ═════════════════════════════  |
imbAF said: And who decided that? Oh...as long as less people are being unjustly wiped out, it;s ok? Wtf kind of logic is that? utilitarianism is that kind of philosophy and its the most popular moral philosophy |
imbAF said: Not really. It's a dumb thing, when you decide who lives and you base that on numbers. Who should live, a group of 100 scientists or 10k prisoners? You decide that, in case you are forced to, by judging the people, what they represent and whether is there a reason to initiate a war against them. In this case, you are siding with racists who decided that people of a certain ethnicity ought to be killed simple because of the crimes committed by their ancestors. It's called generational blame, which is prevalent in North Korea. Congrats, you'd fit right in. faulty comparison again, they are not siding with the 10K criminals in this episode they are siding with like at least 10K innocent people that are brainwashed by Marley and the World Leaders its Necessary Evil to kill Floch and his gang sure Utilitarianism is not always right but it is most of the time, its a good rule of thumb and in this case its right again |

AishaBi said: Why you keep on repeating same shit again and again bro. Yeagerist which is run by bunch of immature trainee can't do a shit against 4 Titan shifter and an Ackerman.imbAF said: yeagerists clearly had more resources than alliance yet no one from alliance is actually injured except Armin because he's the one who can heal so probably yeagerists have never dealt a single damage.They have 4 shifters and an ackerman, and the majority of the yeagerists are not trained with ODM gears... |
| Great episode. The tension was real and I take this over the manga any day. imbAF said: So I guess if 1000 people want to kill you and your family for no reason at all, you will let them have their way with your family members, simply because they are more in number? You gonna tell your mom to take it because it's more virtuous to do so? Ok Jesus Christ This is a laughably inadequate comparison since Eren wants to kill the entire population including countless innocent people, wanting to stop that is absolutely understandable. It's not like Connie shot Daz in cold blood. He was struggling with tears in his eyes and lost it. There wasn't much of a choice when Daz and Samuel got in the way of their mission. Besides, another second of hesitation could've costed his and Armins life. I will admit, tho, shooting Samuel was overkill and seemed to happen in the heat of the moment. Alas, they're soldiers and if you pick up a weapon you gotta be ready to face the consequences. |

adnan_ said: The scouts fought for humanity within the walls. not outside. Also, "opposing xenophobia", uh? We were literally shown guards in Marley in the previous episode that were still heavily racist and xenophobic towards Annie's dad and other eldians. Not to worry though, the savior Armin will bridge the differences between eldians and the rest of the world!FANTASTIC EPISODE. LOVED THE TENSION during Traitor sequence.

It's not a big deal. Again, allying with Marley because you want to prevent omnicide is understandable but it's still illogical in regards to what the scouts have put forth in terms of alternative solutions so far. But hey, now that Magath's home is about to get fucked without lube he suddenly regrets his warmongering against Paradis and we're suppose to feel bad for him and support his alliance with the scouts. Right."whatever you said" is a good summary of op's argument. |

| Honestly, I've been waiting for this chapter to get adapted and I'm not disappointed at all! Magath reflects upon his past actions and thoughts. Looks like they were successful in rescuing the Asumabito. Ngl today's ODM gear scenes seemed even better than the previous ones! Especially the Floch and Reiner ODM scenes. It was great to see Annie's female titan. Man oh man, Connie has it rough. Ever since S4 started, he's just experiencing more and more despair. First the Marley attack, then Sasha, then the depressing events of S4P2, and now he had to kill his own classmates. |
