7/10 for this episode.
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.

Well I mean she's dead. I guess that doesn't really matter though because she's still conscious and mobile.

I really thought Rita was dead already and that's the end of her but didn't realize there's a continuation after the ED, so yeah I'm glad that we get to see more of her...though she's actually dead....but who cares :P

i thought it was a good episode , i liked the 2 first episode better ... but this one was certainly a great one .. love the show so far ... it was a needed episode to set up those 2 duo and add more back story .. but it wasnt as intense as the 2 first one that were going everywhere ...

if i remember right one of the track was kind of off and the ending was weird , like finishing with bacchus like this was akward .. but i guess u have a scene just after the ending theme ... wich make up for it ... anyway like i said , i think it is still a great show , and the one i m probably more excited to follow right now .

i heard the 4th episode supposed to be pretty interesting , anyone heard about this rumour ?

I love it when Amira slaps Favaro. Their interaction is so natural XD Favaro has definitely grown on me. I hated his guts in episode 1 but now he's an adorable POS.

*Necromancer Rita joined the party*

We now have a rogue, a knight, a badass demon girl and a zombie loli necromancer. Make this a full console game and I'd pay to play it.

2Ch blew up earlier in the week about how Episode 4 will be the best thing MAPPA has ever produced animation-wise. I believe it was based off director or staff comments.

Assuming they keep the same quality in their storytelling, and the rumor is true, we're in for a treat.

This show continues to impress me!

My favorite part was probably Amira slapping Favaro. It was so natural, it's shocking.

Love that this episode had a lot of Kaiser moments, it was really needed. Not that I don't love Favaro and Amira, it's just nice to see him. His scene with Rita was very emotional, definitely like him a lot now. Also Rita is adorable, not to mention she's voiced by Sawashiro Miyuki-san <3 the zombie action was intense too, that's how you animate a zombie scene. Keep on bringing it Mappa!

Provided a nice set up for Kaisar's backstory. Hopefully he'll be able to get along with Favaro one day.
Amira's turining into best everything for me- her interactions with Favaro are golden.

Finally a woman slaps a man and doesn't resort to BAKA! or HENTAI! or some other fucking annoying line like that. I've had enough of that thanks.

The cast was already quirky enough but now were adding an undead to the mix and that's uhhh very interesting.

Visuals seem to keep getting better, usually it goes the opposite way.

I'm having lots of fun with this so far.

This show has been consistently great so far.

No anime cliches, no overreactions. Just plain old good worldbuilding and natural character interactions.

And the fucking art style is brlliant.

5/5

Its a common part of necromancer mythology that the necromancer itself could technically retain their self unlike the zombies they create(ex: liches would place their soul into a phylactery turning their body into an immortal living corpse).

Can we establish this as a better animated show with even better character designs than F/SN?

To be honest I've been enjoying this more than F/SN but maybe that's just me.


For one, this has an original feel, so for some people that already know what's going to happen on FSN/UBW, the story itself might not be as exciting.

This is based of a card game... and for the story to be this interesting is quite surprising.
The only experience I've had with an anime based on card games is YugiOh.... then again, it was technically based on a manga. Regardless, this anime turned out much better than what I expected, with it's solid animation work, and interesting characters and back-story.

Why did Rita's parents turn on her all of a sudden? She had been living with them for 200 years, right? Maybe it was that spell she was reciting while her zombies were fighting the trio.

I actually liked the minor twist in this ep and finally some backstories! :D I still want to know what Favaro had to do with Kaiser's past. Maybe he was part of the bandit gang or gave them info? We shall see.

Necromancers control zombies by infusing their will into them. The moment that will wavers, necromancer loses grasp on the zombies.

Rita was distressed in that moment protecting them, cue chewing.

AOTS! Shit, this show's so good. Zombies, man, zombies. And now there's an undead necromancer, hot damn. Necromancy is the coolest of all the forms of magic.

This show gives me hella Samurai Champloo vibes, though. What with the whole big haired over the top MC, the dark haired serious guy he bickers and duels with, and the girl with an end goal that takes them on a journey.

Great episodes, really had me on the edge of my seat.

I like where this is going, it seems Favaro and Kaisar will have their own separate crews.

Haven't seen that in a while, 2 MC's that don't stick together but still get individual developments. . . I hope.

4/5

Despite having been taken for a ride by the end, I do not take bad.
Too bad that the narrative leaves little time for action, forgiven even this flaw, since it is by so much space to explanations necessary for the future.
We are on the 3rd episode of the anime does not disappoint, I like it!
Drawing a little rough at times, but the level is still acceptable though. The animations are of a good standard.
The Main Characters after the first characterizations have suffered today only on the level of personal introspection, a little progress; I expect more soon.

Kaisar finally had greater participation, has given to know a bit of his past and assume that Favaro was one of the banished who stole his father
Was also shown how to Amira stole the key, but the reasons remain unknown
I like the character Kaisar, typical of a protagonist not kill the little girl and takes her along, I'm liking the story ..

Let’s say you drink too much strawberry milk, and have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. You don’t want to get up, but the urge to urinate is just too strong! You run to the bathroom, stand in front of the toilet, and let loose! You think that all your life has led to this moment! YOU'RE STILL IN BED! That feeling of lukewarm wetness spreads! But you can’t stop! THAT’S THE TRUTH OF THE STRAWBERRY MILK! DO YOU GET IT? ~ Gintoki

Lots of backstory this episode; I remember Kaisor yelling at Favaro that Favaro took his family and his honor as a knight from him. I think that means it's safe to assume that Favaro was among the bandits which stole the king's tribute or whatever.

This was a great episode. I really like Rita. I have a feeling this is a series which will be made by its character interaction.

Rita has 200 years experience with zombies, gets bitten by her zombies.
Favaro goes down in a straight line from the cliff with a rope and somehow slide horizontally, and for a long distance.
In ep 2 he shoots the ropes on the bridge and somehow the wood under them breaks.

Necromancers control zombies by infusing their will into them. When she decided to protect her parents despite that, her will wavered, and the control she had over them waned long enough for the mother zombie to bite her.

Motarack said:
Favaro goes down in a straight line from the cliff with a rope and somehow slide horizontally, and for a long distance.

It's called tension & momentum. When a rope/line with something (in this case, Favaro) is set lose, the thing (Again, Favaro) drops until the line is pulled. Of course, the energy from the momentum of his fall doesn't suddenly disappear, and because he still tied to the wall and the fall wasn't perfectly "down in a straight line," the energy manifests it as motion in the direction he leans.

I suggest you try it sometime with a rock & piece of string.

Motarack said:
In ep 2 he shoots the ropes on the bridge and somehow the wood under them breaks.

He's not the one who breaks the bridge planks. The bridge completely stops moving after sagging a bit - showing Favaro's shots did little to ruin the bridge. Amira is the one who notices Favaro was being useless again and uses her strength to break the boards underneath them.

Seriously, are you watching the show?
