- I'm kind of surprised Hange didn't wolf down the Titan juice. Or even giving it to Erwin would be okay, it would probably fix his wounds
- D'awww, Levi is basically Mikasa'ing Erwin
- Potato Girl turning into a Titan over the meat
- Mikasa's happy face while Jean and Eren punch each other out
- I continue to hate how Eren talks as if he can't turn into a fucking monster Titan
- Haaa everyone knows what they're planning to do
- And they're finally getting a heroic sendoff
- YOSHAAAAAAAAAA ERWIN LET'S RIDE
- HEY HEY THAT'S REINER AND SOME NEW GU- FUCK OFF TO BE CONTINUED
- "Huh, outro's glitching ou- WTF"
- "HOLY SHIT WTF"
- "OH MY FUCING GOD HOLY SHIT WHAT IS HAPPENIN"
- LEVI WAS FUCKING STEAMING
- HOLY SHIT I'M HYPED THAT FUCKING OUTRO INTERRUPT

S3E12/E49
THEY STOP US THERE?? An entire season of nothing and then they tease us with that and make us wait till next year?!? GAGHHH!
- Spoiler:
-oh god, Beardy officer want to put his fucked up torture thing on display
- "you'll just be dead weight," man, Levi doesn't pull his punches
-"then let me be food, use me as bait." Erwin's not fucking around either
-what is Erwin still holding back, that he's so determined he has to come with, it sounds like more than just "I'm the smart one, so I need to be there to make the plans once we know more"
-they can't believe they're getting meat
-and then everything just explodes
-Sasha just grabbing the entire roast and biting it with an expression like a Titan
-and then she starts eating Jean's hand wtf
-they literally had to knock her out and tie her up, this got insanely out of hand
-four months ago she shared meat with everyone when she didn't have to, it didn't seem like the last four months were that hard on her, if they're trying to show how bad a state everyone's in
-wow, Mikasa's letting Eren fight his own battle, I guess she considers him to have levelled up enough to take care of himself
-they're just like "why isn't anyone stopping us?"
-Eren's found the power of friendship and isn't angsty anymore
-all seeing Hannes walk by in the dark street and falling quiet
-all the people cheering them on for once
-woah, the ending film stuttering and switching
-WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED
-MIKASA WITH HER SWORD ON LEVI'S THROAT DAMN YOU SHOW US A MIKASA-LEVI FIGHT
THEY STOP US THERE?? An entire season of nothing and then they tease us with that and make us wait till next year?!? GAGHHH!

Re: Attack on Titan
I've started watching! I have a lot of catching up to do. We'll see how binge-y I'm feeling.
Watched episodes 1-3 so far.

- Spoiler:
- That opening scene of the titan peeking over the walls was quite effective. And the show gets gruesome and dark pretty quick. I see what you guys were talking about though, when you described the show to me. When the titans are around, it's interesting because you want to know what's going on and where these things came from, and how things got to where they are, and what can the humans possibly hope to do against this dire threat, and holy crap someone just got eaten, and oh shit is that one ramming the wall?!
But then when things quiet down it's just... okay. It just feels like we're passing the time until the next dramatic/horrifying titan attack.
I am very curious about the worldbuilding elements though, so I'm looking forward to watching more.

Re: Attack on Titan
- Spoiler:
- Yeah, first few episodes are a bit slower than the rest of the first two seasons just because they have to set up the characters and the gear they're using and kind of the military structure they're operating under. I do remember feeling antsy waiting for the hype to start going early on, because I was hyped up on the series before I got into it.

Re: Attack on Titan
- Spoiler:
- Yep, I think it's always a weakness of the show, but the first few episodes are way worse about it because they spend so much time establishing characters that aren't interesting or original enough to need that much time to establish, it'll get better over time.

- Spoiler:
-YES! We're back to fighting music! Even if it's not very good fighting music. Still, hopefully that bodes well for the season.
-the titan right there, they are not doing a good job of looking out!
-does Eren's voice sound different? older? I guess he was barely around last season, so maybe I've just forgotten what he sounds like
-Eren apparently didn't get over his angst last season
-Armin's not afraid to admit to being afraid
-the moment when they leap off the galloping horses into the air
-Eren starts shaking again when they get a look at the old town
-that blast of energy when he transforms
-Bertholdt and Reiner!
-the hole plugged with a crystal titan butt
-they should have had someone other than Mikasa give Eren a new cloak, anyone who knows them watching can easily tell who's Eren if they can see Mikasa.
-Glad to see Irwin working with Armin and giving him more responsibilities, it's about time they used him for something other than just fighting
-Armin's first time giving orders, finishing up with "p-please?"
-THEY're in the walls!!
-LEVI RIGHT THROUGH THE THROAT
-HOLY FUCK SO MANY
-Beast titan!
-the ending music is more on the nostalgia line of last season, seems like they're trying to find a balance between action and char development.
The tension of leading up to the wall and then the big fight coming, I'm pretty optimistic that they're going to do better this season!

Re: Attack on Titan
Episodes 4-5
- Spoiler:
- Where the heck does this optimism come from that the main characters have? "We're facing giant, nearly invincible foes that we know very little about, of which humanity has lived in fear and confined to a single stronghold for centuries, and who have recently decimated the human population. But we trained to fight using wooden dummies, so we got this!"
Also, given how easily the titans seem to breach the walls, I'm surprised they haven't wiped out humanity already. It's also weird how they keep their distance for years and then suddenly show up out of nowhere. If their goal really is to just kill the humans, as the show suggests, rather than using them as a food source, I don't see why they haven't just done so already. There's definitely more going on here.
Also, HOW do the colossal titans appear/disappear like that? That's just bizarre.
I knew going in that this show wasn't going to pull any punches when it came to character deaths, but I didn't realize that would apply so early for a character that they built up as a protagonist. Dang!

Re: Attack on Titan
I didn't have anything to say about it, really. Just breezing through the episodes and making comments here and there as I go.
I don't know how you guys do this thing where you react to every moment, that's not really my style.

Re: Attack on Titan
Well, sure, but are you, like, typing as you're watching to get this blow-by-blow commentary? Wouldn't you have to keep pausing the show to do that? I feel like that would take away from the immersion.
Or are you listing all this out after the fact by memory?

Re: Attack on Titan
A little of both. My attention span sucks, so it actually works better for me to have a reason to pause every so often anyway.

Re: Attack on Titan
I'm mostly pause/typing, or sometimes I simultaneous watch it with someone else online and look back at the things we said and how I reacted to things and sorta do it by memory. Or sometimes I just don't feel like typing out too much because the episode can be self-explanatory.

Re: Attack on Titan
That makes sense. Maybe I'll try it once I'm caught up and on the 1-per-week schedule with you guys.
I'm up to episode 11 now. Won't have a chance to watch more until tomorrow, so time for some preemptive speculation!

- Spoiler:
- Okay, so if Eren can make titan flesh materialize out of nowhere, there's probably a similar mechanism going on with the colossal titans appearing and disappearing, though I still have no idea how that's supposed to work. The colossal titans could have humans attached to them as well, or there may be something else going on. I'm guessing that the existence of the titans in general is either some kind of government conspiracy (keep the masses living in fear while the people at the top profit in some way) or an old experiment gone horribly wrong. Or maybe the titans arose naturally, humans experimented and created the colossal titans to fight them off, but that backfired and now the colossal titans have turned on the humans. Lots of possibilities right now.
Eren emerges from his titan in the same place at the back of the neck as their "weakpoint." I don't think all of the titans have humans attached to them (you'd think we would see them after the titans get cut open and burn away if that were the case... maybe?), but if so that would explain the vulnerability. If not, I assume there's just an important organ there that controls their bodily functions and regenerative abilities, and Eren is tapping into it when he's in titan mode.

Re: Attack on Titan
Watched episodes 12-13.
- Spoiler:
- Thinking about the military structure a bit... Since the titans only attack the walls on rare occasions (first after 100 years, then after 5 more years), the only soldiers who actually get practical experience fighting them are the Survey Corps who go and seek them out. Wouldn't it make more sense for all the soldiers to take turns between wall-guarding and survey duty, so that they all get that practical experience, and then the ones on the walls can better fight against the titans when they need to? I feel like this was a factor in this battle. A lot of the soldiers are way out of their element, but when the Survey Corps finally shows up, they help turn the tide a bit.
I hope they'll be able to get some useful information from the two titans they captured. It's awfully convenient that titan bodies burn up on death, leaving no way for them to study their physiology.

Re: Attack on Titan
Up to episode 16 now.
- Spoiler:
- Oh no, someone killed the captured titans. I'm definitely leaning toward the theory that there's some kind of conspiracy going on. Someone clearly doesn't want people to learn more about these things.
But I feel for you, Hanji. I would want to experiment on them too, just without the creepy attachment and keeping a muuuuch greater distance.

Re: Attack on Titan
Ep 51
- Spoiler:
- Nope, the intro is just not growing on me.
- The Titan runs are getting worse
- Totally boxed in
- God, Erwin is such a badass commander. Totally assesses the situation, creates a counter-strategy immediately, and even freezes fucking Reiner in Armored Titan mode, stares him dead in the eyes without flinching.
- "Hey Levi, go kill the Beast Titan."
- Reiner transferred his consciousness to his body, otherwise he'd be dead. I'm not sure if we knew Titans could do that before
- Eren makes knuckles up with Titan Crystal
- Levi noticeably huffing and puffing taking down "easy" Titans
- Erwin on Griffith's mountain of corpses
- Why did they animate Reiner's armoured taint?
- God damn, Reiner tossing Eren around and face-punching, not going down easy
- Thunder Spears to the eyes awwwww yeah
- Don't you fucking dare end there, anime
- FUCK
- Reiner def survived, even if the preview is some kind of flashback, he said he was going to use "that", implying he had something up his sleeve.
