Two things after rewatching season 1 and being caught up to where the anime is currently- Part of me wonders if Reiner is making excuses to not invade again. I think he may have gotten attached to his fellow cadets more than he wants to admit. You can see this when he saves Connie and when Bertholdt says that he used to be more of a warrior afterward. When rewatching season 1, there was a scene where Annie, Reiner, and Bertholdt are standing on a roof after they run out of gas. One of them asks if they should do something and another says "not unless they're fully assembled". We don't see Ymir spend any time with them and she doesn't follow Eren around with them. I don't think they had a clue about her.

As much as I love the look of the show, they might be better off changing studios. I don't even know if they can at this point.

Is the studio who did Attack on Titan: Junior High free?

Irony Be My Shield posted:I just caught up and I liked this season a lot. The pacing has been better than season 1 and I enjoyed seeing the more minor characters doing stuff. Also I guess they were right to isolate the 104th corps huh, although I'm not sure I see the point in disarming someone who can transform into a basically indestructible 50 foot monster. They'd cause a lot more trouble within a city and it's much harder for them to go anywhere without their gear. The scouts would be able to take them down before they caused too much damage, or at least that's the idea.

BrainDance posted:So is Ymir probably dead? She can't be since her character just got actual detail. But shes been swallowed for a pretty long time... I know shes still gonna be alive somehow but come on. I think they are out to capture, not kill. Annie did the same to Eren awhile back.

Has she announced to anyone other than Hange and Ymir that it's her name?

Gantolandon posted:It's not that much more realistic. If it did, Eren would have been incapacitated after his first fight with the Colossal Titan - he was hit with a jet of pressurized steam, after all. Several other characters would have been either dead or maimed after failing their 3D maneuvre and hitting the ground or buildings. It's practically "Saving Private Ryan" compared to some other animes, but there is no point in trying to expect realistic damage model. Also people are surprisingly good at having long conversations or inner monologues while being seriously maimed.

Rangpur posted:I don't think the spoiler tags are necessary at this point, now that the season is over. Maybe just stuff in the very last episode? Well, the first image is humans making a deal with the devil, so probably.

MOVIE MAJICK posted:Why do the titans eat people at all? It's an interesting thought, but it's hard to say whether Bertato resembles his titan since it doesn't have skin.

So I'm finally starting to realize just how weird Eren and the circumstances surrounding him are. First off, there's his temperament. Even as a child, he's a ball of rage that attacks bullies, stabs adults in cold blood, and if he'd physically been able he would have gone after the titans when they invaded the first time. At the beginning of the show he talks about the soldiers being too complacent and humans being cattle and being trapped within the walls. It's like he talks about it the way his parents would talk about it, but from what we saw of Carla I don't think it came from her. It feels like Grisha may have been pushing Eren to at least join the military without saying so. Then there are his titan powers. He was injected with something, probably with something like what Ymir was injected with, but he's not just a titan, he's a titan who can control titan minds. Like Reiner said, he's the worst possible person. I don't think that's coincidence. Then there's Grisha. We don't really see him react when Eren says he wants to join the scouts, but promises to show Eren the basement when he gets back. We, the anime viewers don't know what's in the basement other than it's a really big deal. Why would he show angry impulsive child Eren the basement? How long had he been planning on doing that? Their house must be on the outskirts of civilization for a reason- Grisha is a doctor who stopped an epidemic, he could probably have his family in the interior if he felt like it. I think Eren was groomed for a long time to get the powers that he has and whatever will be found in the basement. I wonder how much Carla knew. Also after rewatching the first bit of the first episode where the then leader of the scouts breaks down, I've got to wonder just how much of humanity's knowledge of titans comes from Hange specifically. I'm going to have to switch over to the manga. I want to get to that basement.

Kytrarewn posted:That theory doesn't really work for me, for a couple of reasons. 1. In one of the S1 episodes, Grisha gives a speech to Eren with regard to "Be strong for Mikasa's sake" or "Protect your sister" or something along those lines that suggests that he considers Mikasa just as much a part of the family as Eren himself. 2. If he cared about Eren so much, would he really stab him with a needle full of random poo poo he was hoping would do something awesome? He has to either have a decent supply of it, or be able to produce it, solely for the sake of testing its efficacy and dosage before he risks his son's life by shooting poison directly into his bloodstream. You only get one chance to not kill him, better make sure it's going to work. Eren would have died several times over without regeneration/turning into a Titan. Injecting him was risky, but he was pretty much facing certain death.
