Incidentally, has anyone made an educated guess at the population distribution within the walled zones? It seems to me that the major "cities" are the four pocket zones on the perimeters of each wall. Eren's home city recorded losses of about 10,000 following the fall of Wall Maria, with about 500 refugees arriving in the inner zones by boat, and possibly a few hundred more by road. Assuming a casualty rate of at least 90 per cent, I'd estimate that Shiganshina, Eren's home district, probably had a total population of around 11,000 or 12,000. Assuming 12 such districts in total, that would add up to about 150,000 humans in the pocket cities prior to the fall of Wall Maria. Assuming perhaps another 250,000 in the capital behind Wall Sina, that probably meant there was a rural population of about 850,000 living in isolated villages across all zones prior to year 845.

The walls are a mystery; I wonder how many years it took to build those kind of shit. They're like ten times the length and size of The Great Wall of China!
At any rate this is one helluva anime, the visual quality coupled with epic music just makes people shiver with excitement!

Aaaanyways. I actually can't wait to see all the acrobatic movements with that 3D Gear in the anime. It was nice and all in the manga, but seeing them using it with actual animation is just so much better. Though I guess we have to wait a few more episodes until we get to see Eren & Co in action |

The Great wall of China is THAT huge. However as I pointed out, when you consider that the walls of this manga are 50 ft meters tall there's no comparison in the monumental effort required to build them. Quote:
Both of them are absolutely implausible with medieval technology especially if under attack from a horde of titans. However in time of peace with the current real world technology the first project is entirely feasible, the second... is a bit unrealistic, it would cost a lot more and it would lead to way worse living conditions.

You need to follow the discussion to understand, I'll clarify it for you.
Frodonk: Why don't they just live underground instead of building walls? Skane: Food. Frodonk: They can live underground and cultivate stuff above ground. Titans won't destroy crops. Panzerklein: How can they harvest food when a lot of Titans wander around their crops? Randrak42: That's what the walls are for. Panzerklein: If they have walls to keep Titans from them, why they need live underground then Of course it would have helped if Panzerklein used the "quote" function.

Heh. So older Mikasa and Eren are around the same height. “Shingeki No Kyojin” Up-Close Titan Illustration The Armored Titan looks creepy in that illustration.

We'll see if the anime gets that far though. I'm not convinced it will.

EDIT: About that height chart. I love how Levi is, like, super small compared to the other guys lol (how old is he anyways? It's a joke if he's around his twenties and smaller than 15-year old Armin lmao ) |
