Raniero said: opps made a mistake . It was the illustrate in the end of the episode was drawn by that guy .MorningGlory said: Both Aku no Hana and Shingeki no Kyojin was written by the same guy... I guess different studio can give a complete impression of a masterpiece . For one sec, I think that his father "summon" the titan. No, They're not written by the same guy |
| I think what you guys are confusing is that the end-title card was illustrated by Aku no Hana's mangaka. |

MorningGlory said: Both Aku no Hana and Shingeki no Kyojin was written by the same guy... I guess different studio can give a complete impression of a masterpiece . For one sec, I think that his father "summon" the titan. same magazine yes, same author? nay his father said something about "going inside the wall to meet someone" the humongous giant appeared from outside the wall so... nothing to prove so far though |
Pusswookie said: Also, after watching it seemingly belt steam for a few minutes, I can't help but wonder if the "Super Giant" is some sort of man [or otherwise humanoid lifeform] made automaton; unless of course that was just an inordinate amount of smoke caused by some manner of explosion. Explosion of what tho ? It's not like a wall of stone would make 'smoke' when crushed. I also thought something similar about the 'Super Giant' He's WAY too big compared to the rest of his species and he doesn't look the same at all. I've also been wondering about the basement + Eren's Father. Wondering if he's dead or not too. ...and thinking there might be a link between all of this. |

| Definitely the best opening so far for a spring 2013 show (and I doubt it will be topped by any later starting shows). |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| The animation was amazing. The giant scared the hell outta me. Dafuq with people comparing this SAO? |

articuzwolf said: Maybe he lied since going outside the wall is consider a taboo word.Its quite strange a huge titan appear after a lighting struck.I think people sure notice such a huge size titan if its coming to the city wall. That mega titan magically appear out of no where 0.0"his father said something about "going inside the wall to meet someone" the humongous giant appeared from outside the wall so... nothing to prove so far though There must be something related to the titan in the basement.A weapon perhaps . |

Maybe those Titans had been watching a bunch of anime recently and decided to make their own giant robot. At any rate, from now on I'm going to refer to the big one as Kronos. |

| Keep moving forward |
| That was an astonishing first episode. I read the manga off and on again and even knowing what happens I was still amazed. The quality of animation, the music, depth of expression. I'm very excited to see more of this! Respects for the adults who pulled through for the kids by the end. |
 |
| amazing episode! exceeded my expectations nothing to complain, cant wait for see how it develops :D |
| Simply marvelous. I.. I can't describe it any other way. 10/5 |
| .......chills.......fucking.........chills......... 5/5 |

I don't think it's taboo, people just scared because everytime the scouting/reckon corpse went outside, a lot of casualties fell for no apparent progress/result And I'm not sure if you can just go outside the wall if you want to, considering many smaller size giants loitering around, especially for a Doctor like Eren's father which can be considered as a valuable human resources inside the wall |
| Amazing! 10 out of 10 for this episode, for sure. I can't wait for next week. This season is kicking major ass so far! |
 |
| I've never been wow'd by a first episode EVER I am happy to say this anime opened up AMAZINGLY. It felt like it was paced really well, I loved how they actually opened up with the end... i cant wait to watch the rest of this! I think I may pick up the manga because of this haha |
| danggg, that was dark and intriguing, really intense Will definitely follow this |
| Just wait till you guys watch Eren past arc Be amazed |
| Sword in hand, a warrior clutches stone to breast. In sword etched he his fading memories In stone, his tempered skill By sword attested, by stone revealed. Their tale can now be told |
| Wow... that was the best 1st episode I have ever seen! I just hope the story will not go downhill.. But it is really great! Even the OP is badass... |
| The opening gave me goose bumps. The whole ep was just epic |
  |
| Well that was amazing. Im torn between watching it weekly or waiting for it to finish airing so I can marathon it, GAH |
 If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list. |
| That opening... my latest song obsession. <3 I can tell this is gonna be along the lines of a masterpiece. Everything was just perfect. Been a while since I have actually seen an anime follow the source exactly, at least so far. Hopefully it stays that way or similar. Definitely one of my favorites of the season. :D |
 |
| that was FANTASTIC!!!!! THAT is how an anime should represent itself on the very first episode. this first episode is beyond words of praise. |
Mumble200 said: That was absolutely terrifying. I want a Terra Formars adaption. Terra Formars would be one of the next breakout mangas to get an anime. \o/ |
Shaduge said: was it true to the manga? did they censor something? I hope it doesn't disappoint It was pretty much spot on. This is going to be so good! |
 |
| wow shit got real in just ep 1.. damn those NEET giants.. |
 |
| It was good but damn Eren is one annoying kid. |
| .. |
| Great episode. Eren's design screams Kuroko no Basket for some reasons, but I still prefer it over his weird manga look (talking about shota Eren). Can't wait to see the next episodes animated. Hopefully the action scenes will look awesome. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| HOLY SHIT 5/5 |
| Your so-called peaceful world makes me bored, so don't blame me if I destroy all of it. - http://worldinverse.smackjeeves.com |
| You know the episode is good when it was so quick and suspenseful that it was over before you know it XD |
| I don't blame Hanne if this shit was real in life. I would thought he had experience with giants before, but I guess its only the recon team. Regarding Eren mother last moments, she said "no", because she either recall Eren wanting to join the recon team and face the titans like she saw now, or maybe she was afraid for her life, when her children is safe. The real chopping down on humans, I wonder if THE BD/DVD will have it. |
 |
| Lol can't take this anime seriously. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Great first episode. :D Can't wait for next episode. |
  |
| That was an amazing first episode. The dramatic feel of the ending really was superb. 10/10 |
 |
| Recently read the manga and it's amazing. Hopefully the anime stays just as good! |
| To be perfectly honest, the anime is better than the manga so far. We'll see how it keeps up though. |
|
| Ohhh yeah an anime I can watch! It's been awhile. |
| It's going 8.75 and above O.O I think that's even higher than SAO's 1st rating! |
