I get mad most people don't see the little clues spread in the background. It's subtle and well done.

I feel like this season is going really fast? They skipped a lot of material. For real, a bunch of events aren't adapted? Damn, WIT back at it again with not adapting in order.

This was Isayama's decision to ask WIT to adapt it this way because he wasn't happy with how it went in the manga.

I didn't know that. Honestly I loved how he set this arc up in the manga. Next to it, the anime feels rushed, the plot is coming out of nowhere. But anyway, if that was Isayama's decision...We all know he's a perfectionnist.

Now that S3 part 2 has finished airing, I'm rewatching the first part. I put this part on hold when S3 was announced as a split cour, so I never got past episode seven.

I keep coming back to this episode (currently at ep7 again) because it has stunning animation, music and a thrilling story with great development. Characters have to fight actual humans for the first time, the chase after Eren and Historia is nail bitingly intense, the Levi action scenes are gorgeous and Kenny also gets a great introduction.

Jean's doubts are very understandable, but it could have killed him. Props to Armin to saving him.

Sannes being a seasoned torture investigator should have known better they were laying a bait considering all the hints given beforehand..
Historia is the true heir to the throne..Interesting..
The whore Sannes spoke of is probably her mother...

Such a Godlike Animation!!!

When Levi was sprinting all over town. Animation is just too good!!!

My GOODNESS!!!

There's a reason why Levi is pretty much the best Survey Corps ever :)

This Kenny bastard is surprisingly cunning and dangerous. Gotta be careful around him.

I love Hange and Levi interrogating that bastard.

So we're now delving in more to Krista/Historia's past. She's definitely gonna be the integral character in this season for sure.

WOW what a thrilling episode, from the INCREDIBLE action at the start with levi (that was so so so good!!!) to the scene with armin and the dark comedy of the torture scene as well

is this the first time we are officially hearing that levi's surname is ackerman? i did already know it but i think this was the reveal

really great ep!!

Also, I'm glad Linked Horizon did the ED for this season. Wouldn't feel right if they had nothing to do with the ost for the season.

Levi is really a beast, he is a god with that device. And Levi has the same surname that Mikasa. Hmm, I wonder what this mean.

So Historia is the true heiress of the throne. If her father is the true ruler, I wonder who is that guy sitting in the throne.

This is what, the 4th time that Eren is kidnapped? He really needs to be more careful.

Seems like the writers aren't a fan of the Uprising arc anymore than most manga readers are. They're moving at a fast pace to make it as interesting as possible and to get to the next arc. Fantastic episode though. The Levi vs Kenny Squad sequence was tremendous. Some of the best animation I've ever seen. The Jean "Death" scene, the Armin scene, and the torture scene were awesome too. Great episode all around.

Yeah, so, I knew this series would get morally gray, but I didn't expect the transition from binary to spectrum to be so sudden. Everyone, every single person, in this episode looked like a fucking scumbag, and Armin is the only sense of reason. Well done.

Aaand we got the name drop. Not like it tells us anything much though lol. Mikasa and Levi might just have the same last names or he might be Mikasa's long lost uncle, who knows
It'd be more impactful if the "Ackerman" had some kind of significance or implications like D. middle name in one piece for example

Good ep otherwise
Wonder when Eren stops getting kidnapped....

I have mixed feelings about the action sequence with Levi and the military police (so cliche) but the guns are a nice change of pace. I also don't like how the creators of AoT anime use Armin as a device for their philosophy and themes. It's great to explore heavy ideas such as the meaning of war but I prefer things such as that to be much more subtle (Urasawa was keen on showing and not telling in Monster, for example). Armin is just an uninteresting character to me. I love most of the characters actually but he is constantly used as a device by the writers. In the second season, he was used as a device for discussing the need for sacrifice in order to enact real change. Now, he is used for the discussing the morality of war. It's uninspired to discuss your themes so obviously in any medium of art. And he is also so goddamn whiney and stale. Jean, Reiner, and Bertolt are really the only characters that are keeping me invested in this anime on a personal level (I like Erwin, Hange, Sasha, and Connie as well). You can see a believable character progression in Jean and the mystery of Reiner and Bertolt is captivating. Everyone else is just so codependent and flat.
So far, the third season is seeming like a real step back from the excellent second season. Hopefully, there is a little more subtly moving forward. Some character development would be nice as well.

Kenny made his appearance and a reunion that Levi didn't want to have well at least he's changed Kenny's views of him

I thought Jean died back there and certainly would regret seeing that glad that he's still in the game

There's a lot more to uncover before the truth is told and I'm excited about what will happen next.

man this episode was so so good.

i really like the new op and ed, its not like the others we have had until now, its nice to have a slow song rather than the drums and bass with chantings.

we start with banger action, levi kills of people just as easily he kills titans.

man they were playing with my fucking heart, showing that jean had a pistol pointed at him and then we hear a gunhot and a body falling down, i was so scared but at the same time thinking, "they can't just kill of jean like that" and then we see it was actually armin who killed the lady who was probably gonna kill jean.

it felt sad man, watching armin break down upon killing a human. he felt genuinely really bad about killing a human, its gonna fuck with his head for a long time now. killing a titan and a fellow human is a completely different thing.

they are gonna eat eren wtf?

ah good to see them torture the torturer, man the way they fucked with his head by making his friend say bad shit about him, and he finally revealed the truth. historia is the true heir damn

i'm loving this psychological wars in this anime, we have had too much of bat shit crazy action, i love that but still these political and psychological games are very interesting to watch, i love it when people's heads are fucked with.

fuck that poor merchant got killed and that too his son had to watch him get murdered, poor kid gonna be traumatised for life

i can't believe i was spoiled about levi ackerman even before i knew about attack of titan, i was playing valorant one day and a dude in enemy team had his name as levi ackerman, idk but for some reason i remembered it and after i started watching aot i was like fuck that guy, i was unknowingly spoiled man. i wonder how i would have reacted if i had learnt about it for the first time this episode.

very very interesting uptill now

excited for next episode.

It's another 'Eren gets captured' episode... only this time, Crocodile Dundee is here! And - Oh no, we can't kill the heckin humans, otherwise we won't be able to drag this arc out for another X number of episodes.

The only reason I'm not dropping it is because I heard the payoff is worth it at the end.

That's why Levi got a screentime nerf on a previous season. Because his contribution on this episode really well done and one of the satisfaction point i watch aot. As expected from Levi Ackerman. Really? Damn, tell me more about that Ripperman.

So, Eren and Historia being captured and ended up with those old man. Who's that? Interesting knowing the fact that she's about to sit on the crown. And why she needs to be taken back, because her existence within the Survey Corps, might be a dangerous situations for those that hide inside the interior wall and the capital. Fear lead them into doing a brutal things, and its sure not satisfied Levi and the rest. But why need Eren too? Thats what this season need to talk about.

Also, Armin had a mental regression there. I am afraid his mind will be twisted to the bad side with all that change. Not to mention he's not even narrated the short recap again like before. Lets aside that because after all, Levi still trying to justified it was actually one of the funny moment, especially at the torture part with a poor PM dude when when in tandem with Hange. Oh well, what a weird episode. Lets head back to another flashback episode again....

Nice, so Historia is the royal successor. And Eren? What is the plan? Who and why did they overthrow the Reiss family? So many questions.
What Armin said about being criminals is interesting. They are indeed killing people due to differing perspectives, however, isn't it just?
