Petra....... T_T
The action in this episode was amazing! First was Levi's squad, then Rogue Titan VS Female Titan and Mikasa attacks. Music was great as well. 10 out of 10! Quote:

As for the squad, don't forget stress buildup. Even the best can lose their cool when under immense mental pressure, which was the situation they were under. First, chased by the titan while everyone around them was getting killed, having to follow orders and do nothing, then seeing their friend getting killed by a surprise attack.

Useing a attack pattern and thinking are 2 different things. They did not calculate their enemies ability's or intelligence which cost them their lives. The enemy completely baited them in they should have found it strange that a titan who has been fighting on the offensive the whole time would all of a sudden switch to defense and back up to a tree that was a trap right there. Quote:
Again they are soldiers they should be used to this. The real reason they lost is never having to face a intelligent enemy especially one leagues smarter than them. Oh wait I am forgetting something once eren calmed down and noticed the female useing a muay thai stance he stood there dumbfounded due to shock not exhaustion. Plus he could have won high pressure fighters that never tire out can beat out smarter technical fighters Happened to floyd when he was up in coming and won a fight he really lost.

Something I noticed Erwin saying near the beginning of the episode. He mentioned that the Colossal Titan's human had 3D gear to escape in the steam after it disappeared. That would indicate that the person had prior experience with the equipment and would have already been in army at that point. That would then suggests that the Colossal Titan is not one of the new recruits, whereas Erwin suspects that the "traitors" are new recruits, or at least joined the army after the fall of the first wall.
Considering what most of us figured out as the female titan, does this make sense? Would that also mean that the human form of the female titan knew who to use 3D gear by the time of the first attack on the wall? Which would then indicate that either they are people from inside the walls with special training, or there are forces outside the wall that also knows how to use 3D gear. Too many unknown variables right now, so I'm just thinking out loud.

Seriously, titans are vastly superior to humans. FT even has some powerful abilities which other titans don't have. As long as she is not a total idiot she will easily roflstomp everyone. |

Levi's team made all the right moves but ultimately they never counted on a Titan being able to speed up regeneration of certain parts or grow armored skin because they had no way to expect it. It was more a case of them being taken by surprise and outsmarted than them being incompetent at fighting. I don't mean to be offensive but you make it sound like they should always be able to read what their opponent is doing no matter what. EDIT: Looking at the episode again, I definitely think it was unfair to say they just rushed in blindly, Levi's team coordinated their attacks based on everything they knew about Titans (including what limited knowledge they had on the intelligent ones), again I'd like to reiterate they were taken completely by surprise and they most certainly weren't noobs. EDIT2: Man, there's a huge difference when you actually see Levi's reactions to his squad's deaths animated, I like the way the animators handled it. I'm not sure if it was just me, but you can just barely see his eyes well up when he looks at Petra's corpse. Last edited by Raviel; 2013-09-01 at 03:56. |

I do love it. Every time I think that Shingeki no Kyojin is finally finding something good, NOPE. Yet again, the only way anything can be conveyed is through mass slaughter of even the most likable characters. What better way to teach our characters the harsh lessons of the episodes than to kill everyone?! Can't have our viewers actually enjoying the series either.
Seriously guys. Most of the Survey Corps has been destroyed, and on top of that some of their best people. Oh, but I'm sure we'll be seeing more super-expert Survey Corps members appearing out of nowhere to replace the cast of dead elites. By the way, the breed of horses they used is called the One-Trick Pony. In case anyone was wondering. Oh, and that was a nice touch stopping Mikasa, because the two of them clearly would have been outmatched despite the fact that she was doing surprisingly fine on her own. Honestly, if she weren't such an important character she'd be dead right now like everyone else with a name. Beyond the laughable plot, the action sequences in this episode were pretty great. I had fun watching when I wasn't ridiculing it for its lack of thoughtful writing.

oh god, this episode, this episode...
never have I felt something like this when watching anything else, I was watching it with eyes wide open, and I was sweating a lot when though it is 15 degrees in here. I just couldn't believe it. first they had to retreat, then gunther had his nape sliced off, then petra, and everyone else. just when you thought this couldn't get worse, eren was eaten the second time, in front of mikasa, again. oh god, it just kept on coming, just when you thought eren could defeat her, then noo no nono, then it takes eren titan's head off, god. I'm more heartbroken about petra though, such a loss. I need to go outside, my heart is still beating fast. that episode..

Very good episode, due to the slow pacing of the 3 previous episodes I was afraid they wouldn't go further than Eren transforming into a titan, I was surprised in a good way. They manages to put the two fights entirely. This is definitely the best episode of the whole Female Titan arc.

Looks like Eren is just a baby considering the female titan and her abilities.
Some new info about that female titan would be nice. She's been around for a few episodes now, but they're really stingy with information. Eren should definitely practice more using his titan powers.. Female titan vs Eren titan! Now that's something! Wow! The female sure has some aces up her "sleeve". Awesome episode!

This human-type Titan fight between Eren and female Titan felt rather one sided.
Oh yeah sure Eren goes into rage mode and land some tough punches, but female Titan still kicked Eren ass around like it was nothing in the end. The animation of the fight scene was pretty nice eye candy though. Next episode we get to see the two super skilled soldier vs female Titan, woohoo.

I still love the action and the awesome music. But there's always this underlying lack in writing that pisses me off. |
