Average 6/10

Typical set up for the next episode. Good development for Armin while Mikasa and Eren being themselves, Pixis though had me with his words of wisdom. lol

I need more Potato girl! XD

Hence why I said "at the first opportunity".

Mm, this episode is a lot of talking, and this show isn't very good with dialogue. I'm afraid this episode is just sorta there for me.

LeoXiao · 2013-06-10, 11:10

The dialogue in this show is decent, but I prefer Eren's rage-filled "I'm gonna exterminate every last one of those bastards" to Armin's "boo hoo nobody loves me", especially since the latter rant is performed when all three of them should be running or doing something. Pacing this week was so slow that the time covered in this scene probably doesn't even reach the episode's 22 minutes.

Armin wasn't ranting though, he was having the "my life is flashing before eyes" movie trope that's often done when character is facing certain death. Eren had that himself when he was in the bearded Titan's stomach.

I felt that the author was trying to push the fact that armin is also useful a bit too hard. Not that I disagree. It seems every shonen needs its tactician

chaos_animagic · 2013-06-11, 18:15

so... I was "kinda right" (if Eren was right) that he had "multiple forms" that I said in previous episode's thread.

PS: I wouldn't mind being eaten by a hawt lady titan either. (if it isn't super flat chest that is)
Or actually.. I wonder what'll happen if a Tsundere Loli Titan appeared... it'll be like "It...It's not like I want to eat you or anything"

That was more the anime then anything. Eren choosing Armin to plead his case had less to do with him being a tactician than Armin being most persuasive and least dangerous of the 3 at the time. Armin himself went about winging situation as much as possible anyway.

Chiaki_chan · 2013-06-16, 03:59

So, I just watched all the episodes 6,7,8,9 and 10 today ...

Eren can therefore be transformed into Titan and I guess because of his father, because he was transfused?

is that it is possible that the father eren so know one formulated for human titan in turn ... for example, if there is in the basement that is what the army will not use this chemical formulated on their soldiers, for example, there are volunteers for "power" to transform in titan ....

I have plenty of ideas and speculation and questions it's crazy ...

My god I LOVE THIS ANIME!!!!!!!!!

Mikasa had her moment to grow up in the seventh episode.
Jean had his moment to take the responsibility and valuing the lives of his fellow solders in the eighth episode.

The time came for Armin to deliver what he's good at in this episode. Eren trusts Armin more than anybody else, because he can see through the latter's brilliance and critical thinking.

Fear and paranoia are cancers that erodes our capacity to rationalize in order to make critical decisions that may save lives. However, when fear sinks within our psyche, then we can become the worst, irrational, and most destructive creatures in existence. That's for that reason why Shingeki no Kyojin plays with not only visceral reactions, but with whatever terrifying experience the survivors are dealing through.
Everyone who made it alive back into the walls is worn out both mind and body; they scream for the carnage to stop; and they would do anything to be anywhere else away from hell. However, Shingeki no Kyojin reminds us that not doing anything but sitting still, daydreaming, or escaping reality won't make our fears go away and fix the problem.
It's marginally impossible to keep the sanity once one has been through hell, but if there's whatever glimmer of hope out there, then no choice left but keep pushing forward. Fear in this world is suicidal, and what Armin faced off against was the true nature of fear and ignorance.

Captain Wellman wished not to rationalize but making the easy way out, giving himself to fear and putting himself on denial for whatever well-thought argument Armin came up with. Fortunately, the timely arrival of Dot Pixis broke the standoff much to Armin, Mikasa, and Eren's relief.
