I like that they didn't gently caress around for too long to get poo poo started again, and things immediately went all to hell in that trademark Attack on Titan fashion

only 13 episodes, yes, but they look like they're gonna be PACKED

I remember thinking this when I was reading the manga, but I really love how poo poo keeps happening in this part of the story. I was kind of afraid that the anime would slow things down with constant flashbacks and hogwash like that but, NOPE, just non-stop poo poo-happening

Shirobako is a must watch for anyone who wants to understand the animation industry in an entertaining way.

An entertaining and not depressing way

For those wanting a more realistic/horrible depiction, there's that episode of Haka-Dolls

This entire series is all about saying that shonen power will not save you from very obvious losses and deaths.

Eren only has the "guts" part out of the "friendship, hard work, guts" trinity

I mean he has friendship but he's not exactly an ace at coordinating with others

Bert knows what he's doing and precisely because of that he is filled with a crippling guilt and anxiety of having to choose between doing something he doesn't want to do and potentially getting killed or not doing it with an even higher likelihood of being killed

Reiner's just a big old disassociative personality disordered knucklehead

I'm slightly annoyed everything worked out because of magic shonen powers.
Eren's big asspull works out okay because there has to be SOME reason that Reiner and Bert are trying to capture him. His Titan form is pretty handy, but it doesn't really seem to have any significant advantage over theirs or Annie's.
