| This was a really interesting episode. I'm surprised Oluo's tongue hasn't fallen off yet after biting it so many times! Lmao |
| I have to ask; who the hell can write coherently (not to mention at lightning speed) when they have their head jammed between the teeth of a titan and is a second away from instant death? o.o |
  |
| Good OVA. I have some questions,tho. Why didn't they confront Ymir if they already knew that the abnormal titan said her name and seemed to know her? She's already part of the scouting legion so i think they all know her name o.O How many expeditions do they go on per year? Ilse was part of the 34th expedition ( i think ) and in this OVA it was the 49th ( not sure ) and the gap between them is one year. |
| That was really nicely adapted. The foreshadowing is ooooooh mate. Plus I believe the Titan was struggling not to eat Ilse to show respect for 'Ymir-sama' (cough, cough). Great, I loved seeing SnK again. |
| So, What do you think is on the other side? |
| my favorite part was when Ilse was getting eaten and she's still writing in her diary. |
"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |
| Hanji is such a badass girl with a flat chest . |
| great episode |

Ilse was part of the 34th expedition ( i think ) and in this OVA it was the 49th ( not sure ) and the gap between them is one year. I don't think that expeditions were meant to be regular. During that time, their objective was mainly to resupply a route back to Wall Maria, which would generally depend on two things - weather conditions and staff availability. Imagine leading a convoy during winters or in storms with titans jumping around you. Also, the route doesn't necessary mean a straight line from Trost to Shiganshina - I think they move around, finding forests and abandoned villages, where the military could better use the 3DMG during attacks. The other special chapter is about clearing up such village in the south. Ilse's expedition took place shortly after the time the kids began their training. The various corps and their HQ locations are different, though, so it is very unlikely their paths to cross so early. "Communication" b/w humans and titans wasn't taught as possible to the trainees as well. |

| Solid OVA. No complaints. 8/10 Needalist said: Ilse's action was stupid, agitating the titan. there was no real need to shout in the end when the Titan obviously look mentally unstable. Guess the producer just want Ilse dead. Keep in mind that she was mentally unstable as well, after lurking through the dark forests for a few days trying to survive... |
| 02:01 dat kyojin otaku 04:10 sthu, tomboy 04:56 Petorachan!!! <3 7/10 for this OAD. This OAD's bundled with the vol.12 of the manga. |

| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
Unchou said: Plus I believe the Titan was struggling not to eat Ilse to show respect for 'Ymir-sama' (cough, cough). Nah... From what I understood this titan just mistook Isle for Ymir. Look, they're quite similar. You know: female, freckles, dark hair and brownish skin tone... Or am I not right? :o |

| great OVA Hanji Badass mode XD "Ymir-sama" ... can't wait for the second season ^^ |
 |
| Pretty good overall, so I'd give a 7 at least. If only the series had this level of quality. |
 |
| A lot of people including myself are waiting for the second season with anticipation. Now that there's some sort of connection between Ymir and the Titans I can't look at her the same way I had during the 1st season. In a way; she's drawn a lot of attention even though she had no screen time. Or maybe Perhaps I'm reading too much into this. The talking Titan could've been referring to an actual deity named Ymir and the Ymir we all know just happens to share the same name. |

| Oh wow....i just watched this in sub and i was just amazed at the quality o.0 The execution was perfect! Love the building up of suspense and the use of music in the background! Needless to say the animation was great here. The extension that they have added to the story was great and made it very interesting. For an OVA, i thought it was great! :3 I thought i wouldn't be intrigued by this episode since i already read the manga so Kudos to the studio! I was actually creeped out by the titan when he ate Ilse even though most of the times titans don't scare me in the anime. I'm very glad that the studio decided to animate this chapter since it's such an important piece of information >.< |

| I thought this side-story in the manga was a bit of a downer, although very intriguing. But the anime expanded the story into a neat episode that I really enjoyed. Hanji was very active in this episode, which made sense, and the exploration in the action of this Titan was a nice touch. It was also nice to see the Special Operations Squad again one last time. I always liked how Ilse kept writing until the end. Overall, great OVA. FrozenRemains said: Can somebody please explain this to me,HOW THE FUCK did Hanji lift Oluo? Is she superwoman? She is strong physically, yes. Oh and if you wait until a little later... |

| "Your argument is like a naked banana--it simply lacks appeal." |
| Fucking loved it! The OVA gave some pretty major hints into the secrets of the Titans, which tie in nicely with what we now know about Eren and Annie and their ability to transform into Titans. I wonder if the Titan tearing at its face was in the description she was writing, since it wasn't in the narration? I do love the thought of a member of the Survey Corps desperately writing down every detail she could think of about her encounter, in desperate hope that something would be useful, up to and including the Titan's breath, until CRUNCH. |
| A pretty decent side story I must say, and well I do wonder if they'll make a second season after all... time will tell I guess! |

R- said: so nice to see new animated stuff again +1, great OVA, I was excited when it was released, reminds me of waiting for Saturdays for an episode of Shingeki no Kyojin, aaah feels like long time ago! |

| The OP gave me such nostalgic feelings haha. I'm really surprised how WELL they made this chapter into its wonderful animated version. Watching this gave me chills. Seeing Aururo and Petra again made me so sad......my baby Petra :( I'm so excited for season 2 because....

| IF only i was sure that Hanji is a girl , she would be my fav character from AOT / No lipstick + flat chest = epic fail |
randomlock said: IF only i was sure that Hanji is a girl , she would be my fav character from AOT / No lipstick + flat chest = epic fail Do you think scientist/nerds like Hanji are more concerned with appearance? I've seen some ugly unkempt nerds that if they only put on makeup and wore stuff relative to women they'd be hot. Kallen_R2 said: Read. The. Manga.

I prefer watching it as it unfolds on the screen so my mind is blown exponentially by the anime's epic animation, voice acting and music. My personal preference. |

| I kind a got scared watching this i dont know why but the environment at the flashback looks very scary :/ Great OVA :D Thx alot |
zellami said: It really crept me out the way the titan preserved Ilse's body. (It doesn't exist in the manga, but makes sense in its weird way). I am not sure if the 46-m kyojin lead Hanji to Ilse's memorial on purpose or upon seeing Hanji, remembered where he left Ilse and went back to her). Ilse is one of the greatest characters in the manga - being so alone, so scared, lost all her comrades, yet fought literally with a pen and a note, finding courage to run back to Wall Rose on foot and leave (basically) a legacy. As expected, Hanji is crazy about studying titans, but Ilse's story helps her form a proposal to Erwin, which he could seriously consider - as much as she loves to poke titans around, she is reckless and rather childish in the beginning to the point of endangering herself, her comrades, and the missions. Who wouldn't love her (in case they live to see another day) :D Arbitrary, the OAD has become a tribute to the new approach of fighting the titans with more understanding, than mere counter-slaughter. Tl;dr, it's the first communication recorded b/w a human and a titan and casts a light to a character, whose story we are yet to figure. Aside the animation, liked this OAD very much! A very small (special chapter 18.5) piece of the manga got attention, tied up the extended parts in the anime, and added new material. Definitely "not bad"! Yeah, more in depth of the anime. Woah, the titan tearing face scene...>.<.... Levi's cute. |
| Interesting episode as usual ... Gettin' more and more curious now ! ^-^ |
| So titans are intelligent after all. Great OVA!!! |

Thalandor46 said: He bit his tongue because he was talking while riding a horse, he always does that. Remember in the series?I can't possibly be the only person who caught this. At the 8:35 mark, Levi's team starts riding through the forest. A few seconds into the scene, Oluo is just, like, slaughtered instantly. And it's never acknowledged by any means whatsoever, even though he is clearly alive and well throughout the rest of the episode. What the hell was up with that? |

It's only vaguely familiar now that it's been brought to my attention. Even so, that was ridiculously over dramatic for a tongue bite. His head snaps back, a massive amount of blood explodes in front of him, and he falls back out of frame. It looked like a ninja ran by and decapitated him. I thought for sure he was grabbed by an unseen titan that was going to be relevant later in the story. How do you not remember that, he did it like 4 times, it was a running joke throughout the series. |
