At this point I'm in the "fuck everyone" camp.

Also I think it was the first time Eren showed any kind of emotion this season.

I'm in the fuck people that are disguising their spoilers as "theories" camp.

Don't need any more evidence than this episode and since noting is done against these people, I'm out of this thread for good.

Fuck Gabi! Another 11/10 episode, RIP to anyone that had this spoiled for them. I actually forgot how they immediately beat the shit out of her and Falco for that lol

The episode had such a masterful use of silence, something I feel has been missing in most anime these days. In particular, when Armin reunited with Mikasa and Eren, whew, you could cut a knife with how tense that was.

Or more accurately, it's all on the Marleyans that attacked paradis island and created Eren in the first place.

They drew first blood and were already planning a counter attack, it was either kill or be killed for Eren and co.

It's a cycle. The Eldian Empire mistreated the Marleyans who mistreated the Eldians and the people of Paradis who mistreated the Marleyans of Liberio.

Hate and rage begets hate and rage.

When he said he didn't have the strength and couldn't kill Reiner that didn't seem... correct.
I mean, he had just transformed three times in a row, and fought three different shifters.
Plus, they had an airship to catch. No time to pick a fight with a determined Reiner.


now the question becomes: Has Eren tried using the Founding titan powers while touching a normal human with royal blood?
He had apparently been trying to trigger hidden memories by touching Historia's hand for a while before the basement reveal, and he did exactly that soon after, too. Eren mentioned that it felt like "everything was connected" when he touched Dina's hand, so it's probably safe to assume that he didn't feel that whenever he touched Historia, hence his theory that it has to be a Titan with royal blood (and he'd better not tell the military).


Isayama is such a great writer not because he writes stuff you can never predict but because he writes it in a way that what is happening feels earned/inevitable.
Yup. It's unfortunate that so many people have this completely backwards.

Trying to remember the last piece of media that resulted in such collected muttering/shouting of fuck them kids.

Falco doesn't deserve this.

He's a good boy. A good bean.

You're not wrong but when the Marleyans are literally being portrayed as Nazi's that hold Eldians in ghettos and more or less 'execute' people into titans they set loose on Paradis Island, I feel if they'd just stop or were stopped then there'd be peace.

The people inside the walls only want security and safety, they don't want war.

True but Reiner had a massive cavity where his face was. I'm not sure he had anything in him.

That's actually one reason that I hate that Isayama is using Nazi and Jewish imagery for these countries because it doesn't work when you think about it.

Jewish people were never actually in control of Germany where they oppressed the shit out of the German people.

The Marleyans were actually oppressed by the Eldians and when the shoe flipped, they took it out on the Eldians and people of Paradis. Obviously, it's unjust but eventually someone has to be the bigger man.

There's a catch to it all I'm sure. We just have to wait to see how it all came to this. Zeke's gonna be dead in the end regardless though. Levi seems sure of that.

I HATE TWITTER. My dad was visiting so I wasn't able to watch it immediately like I usually do.


Top Trending at like 4:30 so a little over an hour it aired.
"#SASHA"
With the description right underneath "Fans of Attack on Titan mourn a beloved character's death."

I'm livid. Especially since Sasha was one of my top 3 favorite characters so to have it revealed in that way. I'm so fucking annoyed/depressed. I now know you can turn off personalized trends so hopefully that will help before another character inevitably dies.

Their needs to be a good-ass reason why because right now it's nuts considering the Grisha diary + the heinous actions Zeke has directly committed towards them. Like he was having FUN fun. He killed Erwin goddammit

Falco has had a rough couple of hours

Falco is truly a worth successor to the Armored Titan.

How many Ls did Falco take in the past 3 episodes?

Eren: Erwin who? Monke is my new best friend.

How do you do that? I was half spoiled about Sasha like 2 hours before the show aired (Sasha was trending without a description but obviously why else would she be trending at all plus considering the title of the episode).

It's just Jewish ghetto imagery, really (and that makes sense).
Honestly, there's no shortage of obvious off-brand Nazis in fiction, and I don't think Marley would make it into the top 20. If anything, their uniforms remind me of the British Empire...

https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/twitter-trending-faqs#:~:text=Tap Settings and privacy, then,location by tapping Change location. Try this. I saw her trending in the episode she shot all those soldiers so IF twitter didn't decide to add that wack description I would've been fine, cuz MAYBE she goes on another killing spree. But nope.

Next time people decide to call out legitimate speculation as Manga spoilers, why don't you take a look at the manga speculations at this time. Both of the major things that happened in this episode were predicted months in advance.

Question to the Manga readers

Is the very beginning of the Manga thread on this website start Past this point in the show or before this point?

I want to read old manga reactions to this part of the story without seeing any spoilers for after this episode.

The manga chapter the first page of the resetera manga thread starts on and what chapter this episode is would help.

Crunchyroll posting that tweet a couple days before the ep was unfathomable to me. Completely irresponsible and shitty, and serving literally no one. Wanted to roast them over it on Twitter but can't do that (still can't, really) without potentially taking part in the spoiling.

I just skimmed through it and it seems like it's before chapter 100 which is episode 5, so you should be good.

Checked through it again, everything up to post #477 is safe to read.

From what it looks like, it starts before the festival.

Wait what was the tweet; or does it spoil something that's still coming up?
