bees x1000 posted:Annie shifted again in the titan forest while pursuring Eren, Eren shifted twice when retaking Shiganshina. It's a combination of training for stamina and how demanding your titan is. The colossal is a one and done thing. A titan transformation seems to instantly heal the shifter from all injuries. To my understanding, it's any wounds suffered by the main body while tranformed that prevent you from shifting again until healed. Any time we see anyone shift more than once in a short period of time they're exited their first transformation intact.

I'm not going to hold it against them, covid has hosed everything up and I hear things have gotten worse in japan again, so that's probably made things much slower.

I don't know if the original intention was to have a break and the original marketing makes me think they intended to run through until the end. I guess things have come up and they've needed to split it and schedule wise next winter is the only time they have free.

They did the same thing during season 3 and that was a different studio, pre-covid. I don't know how common a mega-season with a long break in the middle is in the anime world, but I know Breaking Bad did the same thing with their final season, where it aired over two periods of 3 months each, with a 9 month break between. I don't exactly know what the incentive is to proclaim the "final season" but effectively break it out into two distinct parts, but it's certainly not the only piece of media to do that in recent years. I guess it hooks viewers who want to see the story's conclusion. edit: re: breaking bad this was apparently to give time to write the final chunk of episodes JahRoo fucked around with this message at 16:31 on Mar 30, 2021 |

If nothing else calling it the "final season" sure seemed to do wonders for its reception, definitely got the impression a lot more people vocally cared while it was airing in comparison to the last few seasons.

I'm pretty sure the studio literally cannot afford to animate the whole final story in a single chunk. It's a very expensive show to make with a very high audience expectation of quality. The studio got a cut of the money for the currently aired episodes, and that's likely to carry things over to the end.

Honest question, so people mention often that this is an expensive show to make, but what exactly makes it so expensive compared to other shows? Is it the amount of action sequences? I'd love a more in depth explanation if anyone knows.

Expectations have been set high and the odm gear pretty much necessitates very dynamic action that's difficult to take shortcuts with, is the short of it I think

Frionnel posted:Honest question, so people mention often that this is an expensive show to make, but what exactly makes it so expensive compared to other shows? Is it the amount of action sequences? From what I've read, it's the action sequences, yeah. Attack on Titan has a lot of fight scenes that need to juggle large groups fighting highly detailed opponents at high speeds, with very few flashy effects and a lot of reliance on the fundamentals, meaning a lot of the shortcuts that look good are less viable. Like, let's compare to Jujutsu Kaisen, another anime from the same studio in the same season that's recognized for good looking fights. Most of the time, in Jujutsu Kaisen, a fight is fairly small. One on one, two on two, maybe two on one. Meanwhile, Attack on Titan's juggling much bigger groups, moving at high speeds, with a more detailed artstyle that lends itself less well to some of the standard techniques. Add in high expectations, and yeah. It's a rough job, even compared to the usual.

It's a very expensive show to make with a very high audience expectation of quality. The studio got a cut of the money for the currently aired episodes, and that's likely to carry things over to the end. I do not think money is the main factor in the studio not able to animate the whole final story in a single chunk. The production schedule for the final season has been inhumane for the staff. There was a reason why no studio wanted to take on the show for this season because the production committee was wanting to have the show air at a certain time period. Mappa was the only studio that was willing to take it because it is a studio known to work al their staff to death. The last few episodes were basically almost done on airing date. The only way to get the final story in a single chunk was to give the studio time to animate it and the production committee did not give that option. It was somewhat of a miracle that the season looked as decent as it was. Edit: CG is probably more expensive than hand drawn but the reason to use CG is that it is quicker to do especially when under a tight timeline. psyer fucked around with this message at 03:08 on Mar 31, 2021 |

Freakazoid_ posted:Preparing myself for a Game of Thrones style disappointment ending. It's still possible the ending's going to be a disappointment, but the manga's close enough to done that a full Game of Thrones is all but impossible, and there's at least a few more highlights before it's over. Some of the best chapters in the manga are still to come. (As are a few weaker ones.)

Toxic Fart Syndrome posted:Also, just wanted to say Eren is a dick now... He's free. If you think he's a dick, maybe it's because you are not free and your posts are affected by your genetics. Jokes aside, or I guess a different kind of joke, someone pointed out to me that in the ep where Eren breaks down Mikasa verbally and Armin physically, it's basically a genius move from his part. Because he sure as hell could not compete with them in the opposite order, Mikasa may not want to hurt him but could absolutely destroy him if she did, and Armin is significantly smarter than him even after he left his reckless idiot phase behind. I'm also totally not convinced Armin's tears to Yelena were true. He realized he could manipulate her to get a way out. It didn't work due to completely unforeseen factors, but goddamn Armin perfectly read Yelena in loving minutes. Blaze Dragon fucked around with this message at 14:36 on Mar 31, 2021 |

Like an archetypal fanatic, Yelena seems genuinely enamored with the Jaeger brothers, and will joyfully embrace Armin for accepting the plan - and without hesitation put him down like a dog if he then betrayed them.

Attack on Titan Season 4 was called "The Final Season". Friday the 13th 4 was called "The Final Chapter". Think about it. We've got at least 8 more seasons left.

We’ve been talking in this thread since before the first episode that the projected run is 16 episodes and that there was no way that would cover the material, that the manga is like months away from done and it would be dumb to keep going til the end without waiting, and that there would almost certainly be a second chunk plus maybe a movie to cap off. And then that happened. So here we are, see you in 2022.
