It's nice seeing Marco Bott as a whole man at least in a flashback.

They finally revealed Christa as Historia.

Ymir was the titan that ate Reiner and Betolt's friend.

Mikasa saves the day, she's such a badass. I love her when she's fighting titans, not so much when she's oogling Eren. Speaking of Eren, he needs to be bitch slapped for that flop.

I don't think Ymir is dead, she has titan healing powers.

Great episode
Don't really like the relationship between Historia and Ymir but this flashback was pretty cool THOSE Revelations THOUGH
Ymir is so cool in her Titan form
These action scenes were epic
FINALLY BEST GIRL IS BACK MIKASA STRONG AS EVER
Eren first kill was cute the way he was happy about it
Music was on point once again
NEXT EPISODE IS GONNA BE HYPE AF ( I got spoiled in it ) I think it will the best episode of the season
Can't wait for next week

After seeing Ymir get torn apart by the pack of titans, I really, really wanted to hear Eren's titan roar and see him running over to tear them apart lol. Show them what a titan shifter is capable of when it's not burdened with protecting its allies. Of course, that would've tactically stupid, so I guess we'll have to wait til the next episode to finally see Titan Eren in action again.

I'm so happy they showed Ymir's missing limbs and didn't censor it. Unlike Franz's corpse in Season 1.

Am I the only one that feels like if they slightly tweaked the flashback sequence with the minor background context into a "flashforward", it would've made the episode even better? I know it's a shonen, but my suggestion of a more ambitious narrative structure could've been pretty cool given they already tread the territory of toying the narrative structure for emotional resonance this episode.

The flashback itself was so absorbing in its openness and the use of atmosphere and visuals for visual storytelling could've been an entire episode itself; I was more intrigued by it than the conclusion of the tower fight scene.

Next episode (or the one after? knowing AoT anime pacing ep6 will end with pre-fight cliffhanger), the fight I/everyone has been diddling themselves over...



The budget spent on MMA fight will determine my rating for the series. I'm sure I saw some shoddy CG at end of preview, hmm...

I liked that Ymir got her own more... feminine-ish titan fight theme. And Historia standing on edge of tower shouting as Connie was WTF was amusing. Good episode. Eren's "first kill" line was a nice self-aware nod by the author--he'd been so busy having Eren get beaten up as a titan he'd forgot to have kill with 3DMG.

Again, like the previous episodes, this one was also a rush.
Love the development and interaction between Ymir and Historia.
So many important events: Krista is Historia, Ymir is a Titan Shifter, and Eren had his first kill.
Really looking forward for the next episode, a real popcorn worthy moment.

Ymir better not dies now, I wanna see another Titan fighting along Eren. Though she's titan shifter so after one more transformation she should be alright again.

We got to see Marco in the flashback T_T Survey corps save the day. Everyone seemed rather calm when realised Ymir is a titan.. Now you can expect everyone from 104th to be a titan.

Even more transformations next weeeek

Ymirs small titan wrecking havoc among titans larger than she is really is a sight to see. Wow a nine march through heavy snow and low vis eh and even that was a good time but not the best time. I really want to see what the best time actually was. Sasha and her expectations for a feast though was creepy because of the way she said it lol. Being stuck and lost in this weather means that the likelihood of them freezing to death is pretty high. Harsh as it may be this weather would only create more victims if they went to search for them when visibility is still so bad. If anything one of the defining traits of Christa is her determination to save everyone that she can no matter the circumstance. Ymir can be heartless at times or maybe a realist but she does have a point here. So Ymir knew about Krista's true identity and her circumstance eh. Lol if anything Ymir is really pretty cryptic but considering her true identity i guess its necessary. Hmm so that was the first time Ymir used her titan powers when she was a cadet eh. Lol if anything Eren, Armin and Mikasa aren't ones to leave one of their friends alone if they need help though im surprised that Reiner and Bertolt wanted to help as well. Looks like the majority of the class wants to help too lol. Hmm im glad that Ymir didn't throw Daz off the cliff though. So she used his titan form to get him and herself to the camp first eh. The trust that exists between Ymir and Krista though are really strong. I love the old flashbacks are used to provide background between the two before switching back to the present stage. My that was one of the best titan transformations ever and the music and Ymir's thoughts that were dispersed among it made it even better. Unfortunately despite how they look Titans are not dumb in the first place. They have a certain animal cunning that makes them unpredictable at times. Normally Ymir would have been able to hold her own against that many titans by using the surrounding towers to aid her. She's trying to hold the tower by herself against that many titans. Brave of her.

Krista's motivational speech for Ymir though lol. Lol she's really tearing the tower down after that speech. If you want to live grab my hair lol. Damm a lot of titans managed to survive the tower falling on them than i thought. Damm the survey corps really got here right in the nick of time. Glad that Ymir managed to survive that though and that we get to know Krista's real name as well.

When Mikasa showed up, I was like Sasha when she got saved from the giant in the building: MIIIIKASA!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQlegKCxLxU

I literally jumped off my couch!! And the fact that Ymir is the giant who attacked Reiner??? I have to watch 28 - 30 again because I missed what the deal is with Krista. The show is just getting better and better.

Ymir was always amazing, but now .. she is way beyond that!
Attack on titan is just a huge emotion roller coaster, I tear in EVERY episode.

Also, I can't wait to get all the answers, why is Ymir a titan? How? Why did she kill Reiner's friend? What second chance in life?
Poor Reiner, if I was him I wouldn't know how to feel.

Hmm.. Not sure.. But from one of the previous episodes, there was a scene where a titan ate the ear of another titan... Guess it's not possible for them not to attack each other. Especially Ymir, since she attacked them first.

So Ymir is dead right?
Without modern medicine her injuries are obviously fatal. I saw a decapitated arm and leg without any form of first aid on it plus a huge chunk of her stomach bitten off. Any one of those sustained is more than enough to kill you in minutes and Ymir has all three. I'm aware that those will argue that Eren had similar injuries and survived because he regenerated them after he turned into a titan. "After turning into​ a titan" from the way Ymir looked after going all out she won't be able to turn back to regenerate and heal her injuries. I never read the manga so if I'm wrong then I'm wrong. I'm only basing my observation with what was presented during the episode.
"Manga readers are annoying, all they do is complain or spoil the anime we discuss in an anime forum.
They should really do their whining at manga forums.

Titans also attacked Eren in Trost the first time. Same for Annie, she used herself as a bait to destroy the scouts during the expedition and also to escape.
They seems to see them as big and tasty preys.

Anyone noticed that Ymir is able to speak while in her titan form? And the titan in "Ilse's Notebook" OVA was also able to speak and he said "Ymir sama", now it definitely has something to do with her. I wonder if Hangi will question her about it, to find more about the abilities of the titans

the flashback was a bit weird. Too long for how little happened. The Christa - Ymir relation is still underdeveloped imo.
Also it took them to many episodes for just the tower stuff - it feels like a 2 cour but it isnt. Im still upset yes.

Also when the titan was about to grab christa I was like "Come on magical plot armor, do something! This death would be way to obvious, AoT kills more surprisingly. Time for the heros to come!" Annnd then mikasa came.
This is bad. Like really bad for. In AoT people should die, not get saved by magic. The false deathflag that cant be because its obvious shouldnt exist. I hope it gets better from now on.


Since you said their relationship is still underdeveloped, maybe the flashback should have taken up the whole entire episode? smh, their relationship is simple, but not underdeveloped at all, its pretty obvious, that their bond is so strong because they are in a similar position, and one has overcome their fear, while the other still hasn't.

Your last sentence is just dumb, on a writing standpoint it would be dumb to kill off a character that has just recently been reveal to be very important to the plot, Yeah, lets kill the girl that we still haven't learned anything about, for shock value, yeah that makes sense.

Also what magic are you talking about? You knew that they were heading to castle utguard from episode 3, a lot person actually thought the back up squad would have come last episode, so its not like they came out of no where.

it feels like a 2 cour but it isnt. Im still upset yes.

Whether the series is 2 cour or just 5 episodes, the anime staff wont skip important details from the manga just to please you guys.

People bitch about anime not being faithful to the source material, well this season has been 99% faithful to the source material, but for some reason, people want the anime staff to skip flash backs and other important details, which would turn the series into a train wreck since a lot of things wont make sense.


@On_the_Lam

You will find that out this season.


@Tengai

That is their relationship back story, not their actual back story.
