Dark humor moment: All those people and horses and people's and horses' body parts going flying off into the distance and not one Twinkle in the Sky?
It was particularly surreal with the shot of the team looking to their right and seeing a horse and rider go flying through the air parallel to their course. |

Oh yea, when the horse got kicked in the air. I remembered that part in the manga. I was like "FIELD GOAL!" haha. Or when she was swinging the other dude in a spin, that was merciless ... and hilarious at the same time. Cruel in its beauty.

Aaaaahhh... The Windmill! I've been waiting for that scene to be animated. HAHAHA! Absolutely glorious carnage and brutality.
The animators have really outdone themselves with the intensity of the episode. Not just the soundtrack, but also the presentation of emotions going around in the last five minutes. The team screaming, literally pleading, for Rivaille to give the order to attack, the tension piling as the FT closes in. Oh dear Lord, I've already read the manga, but this still got my heart racing and my mouth telling my monitor to "GIVE THE ORDER! GIVE THE ORDEEEEERRRR!!!" |

i been watching attack on titan since the first day it released and it looked really cool but you know, yea the giants are cool and all the gory kills and animation buuuut this series is kind of boring. Hey all im saying is this would be a pretty creative war series if the soilders would act more like soilders instead of just pissing there pants all the time, and if they would have made the main character more cool or uniqe and cut back on so much overly long talking scenes, i mean look at blue gender or muv luv, the story lines are pretty similar, like you know humans fighting a war against monsters. In those series they showed how horrific it is to fight monster just like attack on titan but the diffrence is that in attack on titan their afraid 24-7 and even when there fighting against the titans it doesn't feel like there fighting them its more like their attacking out of panic then battleing.

Nice episode. Armin is probably Detective Conan because he already has a big clue.
That Titan running at about 17:00 made me laugh a bit. I need a gif of that guy Quote:

They've also made special scenes showing you the scale of the Titans and if you've read the Official manga (not the fan translated), the translation and in-depth of how tall the Titans are gives you a clear idea. Just imagine something that big is standing in front of you and it just wants to eat you for no freaking reason. Aside from that, you mentioned Muv Luv Alternative - that had a completely different structure from characters, story, events and era and environment. Those two are completely unrelated to each other but only share one thing in common - Survival. Muv Luv Alternative does score better with story structure and character development, at least from my perspective vs. all other things I know about (Key VNs, Fate series).

@ animewars, have you read the manga? If not, I suggest you go and read it from volume 1. I'm also going to post few spoilers in the manga thread.

But I agree, once Eren turned into a Titan I was a bit disappointed but still liked the twist. So far, I am thrilled with the anime and manga.

To give further credence to the theory on who the Female Titan is, I noticed that she mercilessly killed the soldiers this week even if they were running away. Contrast that with the fact that she let Armin go after looking at his face last episode. That would indicate that she knows Armin and has sympathy for him.
So 2 parts of the episode that was interesting (besides the awesome Female Titan pawning everyone) were when all the guys noticed how much of a goddess Krista is and how really, really happy (think cat in heat) when the Female Titan sees Eren. Btw, Krista better never get killed. I'll probably break something if that happens. Oh, btw, what is the purpose for the Female Titan to find Eren? Is it to kill him, as an enemy? Is it to capture him, for further study of his complete form or maybe try to convert him to their side? Or even another reason?

I think that one of the unique things about this series is that the soldiers are portrayed as having fear, and lots of it. I think this is a good thing because war really does suck and not all fiction should try to cover that up. Another advantage is that it makes the true badasses really shine.
