I still kind of wish they'd merge. Like Eren would steal FT's power and become an even bigger titan.

/\/\/\/\/\ gently caress that noise, there's only one specific part they'd be missing and it's pretty much a slog if you've already seen the anime. That was my experience, at least; I didn't enjoy the manga until I got caught up to where the anime was at the time. Here's a link to Attack on Titan manga starting at Annie, Eren, and Armin in the tunnel having a friendly chat about female titans. http://www.mangareader.net/shingeki-no-kyojin/32 If you start here it'll only take a couple hours to finish the rest of them. Also, if it has been a while since you read manga, remember that it's right-to-left instead of left to right. Speech bubbles in a panel on the right come before speech bubbles on the left, same with panel structure. Captain Candiru fucked around with this message at 00:09 on Sep 29, 2013 |

MeLKoR posted:This may be a stupid question but, as I was looking for a translation of the Vogel im Käfig lyrics it came to me... why are these lyrics in German?! In fact why are so many of the lyrics, not only of this particular anime, in German? More generally speaking why are most characters names, their look, the architecture, etc European inspired? I always figured that Isayama had either visited or heard about Rothenburg (medieval walled town in Germany that is extremely popular with Japanese tourists specifically) and then decided to write a manga inspired by that. The town certainly looks very similar to his setting.

Wow, that last bit after the credits was kinda poorly conveyed. I didn't know what it meant until you guys discussed it and linked it up to where it happened in the manga. Really odd the way they handled that; I think they could have done better. Kind of a sour way to end the season, but hey, season 2 to look forward to.

Yup. The top brass absolutely know the deep dark secret of the titans, considering they built the in the first place. So they have some technique to manufacture titans, and used them as the building blocks of the walls. I think it ties into the Armin and Jean's becoming monsters speech. I think the feral titans are some kind of biological superweapon gone horribly wrong, and it was the rampant abuse of their powers some hundred years back that led to the current situation. That must be the reason why the King doesn't utilise more of them. Well, time to see you guys in the manga thread later!

Phobophilia posted:Uh, I've started from Annie capture, and it I was expecting a bit of a breather. But then it went from 0 to 100 from out of nowhere. The anime cut-off right before the point where all our understandings of how the setting worked essentially shattered before a reinforcement of the unknowable and unknown. Y'all who finished the anime should really give reading the manga a shot, it's rather good. Keep discussion of it over in the manga thread.

One particular part of Attack on Moe is good, too. Most of it is pretty horrible but what they did with the initial breaking of the outer wall is pretty great (5m 11s). The rest of it is lame Youtube Poop style stuff.

Oi... if you guys are going to join the manga thread read all of the loving manga before going in there. Don't go there to ask questions, yet. We've got someone in there posting a question about the end of the episode and how it compared to the manga in between posts about HUGE SPOILER A and then some ongoing discussion about HUGE SPOILER B. No one uses spoiler tags in the manga thread. You will be spoiled.

I never read no stinkin manga and I regularly hate the anime, but that was not a bad episode or a bad way to end the season. Crazy awesome titanfight and also Eren got his first drop of characterization since like... episode 2. Also Bill would make the perfect titan.

No kidding. Please heed the warning. Also please don't act smug about only watching the anime you look like an idiot. Nobody does that. I don't get peoples surprise about Eren at the end of the episode. The anime has been focusing heavy on how his Titan form is taking more and more control over him. Even the poo poo he says gets more and more creepy. Has anybody paid attention to it? The manga hasn't done as good of a job as the anime in that area. Even his face looks like its starting to become a skinless titan. The ending is pretty loving stupid finally seeing it. Ruins the entire punch of it without anybody around being shocked.
