Misaka is getting slightly jealous it seems!

So we got to know a little about Eren's parents. Grisha seems to come from outside of the wall, with no memory. Met Carla inside the walls and got married. Nice build up towards next episode which seems to become another fierce battle.

A two month time lapse. Okay then.
This throwback episode gave me the feels, what a away to fill In the blanks... I can't believe it shadis? (Was that his name) tampered with it, geez. Why he so salty for.
Kudos to Carla for giving all the average joes a shoutout. But ngl, your sons special now though -I can't believe that powers been in him for quite a while... What if he triggered it by accident in his youth (now that I say that, that would be hard; he has to intend doing so and make himself bleed)

Mikasa in his episode was hilarious, she did not take it well seeing eren and historia together
P.S.
Is it just me or does anyone else struggle to see eren and mikasa together; it's just 'cause they have that sibling vibe goin' on, that got me thinking so..

Party popper here.
I think the way Carla think about people and Eren (for being her son) is the real problem of our time. Society celebrates and promotes mediocricy and we are watching the world be held back by this new gen of parents.

Going back to topic, lot of reveals, but nothing compared with what's coming. Finally they are getting ready to go to shinganshina. I think they should have wait until next chapter to show the beast titan defeating the armored. That way it would have had more impact, showing it in last chapter made this one look like we got a few days back (even if it's not the case).

It might no be visible enough from how the anime presented all of these, but Shadis actually resigned due to what Carla said (also partly to take responsibility for all that deaths), that it's okay not to be a special/great person as long as you are alive.

He kind of trying to protect Eren from entering the Scouts by sabotaging his equipment since Carla said all of that stuff, and Eren is the son of the woman he loved after all.

This season has been amazing thus far. This episode really starts to tie up loose ends from the beginning of the story. If it keeps this quality through the rest of the series: it has a shot at possibly being one of the best animes ever produced. Everything has been on point. Artwork, voice acting, soundtrack and some superhuman writing.
Masterful.

Also: yandere Mikasa has my vote for best gril.

Eren getting a glimpse of his past from Keith and the acquaintance he had with his dad and mom. I still don't feel Eren as an MC and I doubt that will change but nevertheless he seems to be cheerful a bit somehow considering he was in a slump as if late.

Because the ep focused on him, it was alright but wasn't that good.

Well, Keith's story proves one main thing. You don't need to be special to train greatness, and that's not a bad thing at all.

This episode had so many throwbacks to earlier episodes. Ep.3 when Keith says "Grisha, you're son has become a soldier" has so much more meaning now. And Eren's mom saying "He's already special because he was born into this world" mirroring his own words that he said to Armin at the end of episode 12 of season 1. What a great episode!

Fantastic episode!
Incredible how this anime never fails to disappoint me even with episodes without any fights or action scenes.

Mikasa, i am sorry but you are loosing to Historia xD She is now definitely the best girl hahaha

@Raizel

I wish Eren's mother was still alive :/ His dad was amazing! He did so much and yet we barely know anything about him.
Now we have even more mysteries xD Where did Eren's father come from.

I love the fact that such a "simple" detail that i didn't care at season 1 (Eren's broking belt), and the fact that such a small detail has it's meaning that i could have never seen back there, and only at season 3 we find this out, amazing! Just amazing! The guy who wrote the manga did such a great job!

So they are going now to retake the wall? Can't believe it will finally happen, after 3 seasons! :D

But it made me a little sad that no one here praise to the massive heart retired captain bald head. He even purposely screwed up Eren belts for training in order to give him normal and happy life.

love that episode, as it talks about the past of Eren's dad (Grisha) and commander keith. Well what does Grisha doing outside the walls of Maria? hahaha....

i juts love the back story of them as it shown how commander keith became close to Eren's family, especially to his father...

And i love the last few lines Carla (Eren's mother) have said to Commander keith, and that is "What is wrong with not being special?..."... hahaha

I LOVE THIS EPISODE EVENTHOUGH ITS JUST IT SHOWN SOME PAST!!! hahaha...

Ugh! Seeing this episode, I can no longer resist to change the score from 9 to 10 for this season; it's clearly beyond amazing. Not to mention that we haven't even reached its thrilling part yet. :)

Isn't that obvious ? lol
because he's not like Naruto or Luffy
I mean It's known that you can't be MC if you are not badass :v
Agree. Not every MC has to be the out-loud one and always driven by high ambitions. This is why I have a problem with the series being rated Shounen(13+) when it should have been Seinen(18+) since the very beginning.

Not at all. I'd choose Mikasa over Historia every time. So I guess it's just differing opinions.
I just realized that all of my favorite characters, beside being stunningly beautiful, also happen to be exceptionally skilled murder machines. \('-')/

It's not a waste of time, because it addresses some plot hole that people thought was actually a plot hole, and at the same time it put together the puzzle that was missing during season 1 episode 2.

We also got more hints about Grisha, that also confirms that he is outside the walls, not to mention small things like who was the one that mess with eren equipment back in episode 3 of season 1 and finally, giving Keith Shadis more depth and now the scene back in season 1 when he return the old lady a dead hand of her son and he was exaggerating in front of her and everyone else, and a lot of person thought he was exaggerating, now we know why he was like that and also found out how Erwin became the new commander.

And finally give Eren more depth to his character.

I could add a ton more, point is it is not a waste of time, and it really annoys me, because you are saying that the author should not address plot holes or add more depth to the story. Every single episode of snk has some importance in the overall story.

Sure you don't have to like it and you can think it was the most boring episode ever, but at least understand the importance of the episode and acknowledge its importance in the overall story.

Maybe because of his resignation from the scouts and the death of Eren's mother...


but he still had them after all that


The scene(s) when he still had them was the same day when Maria wall was destroyed (the same day that he quit the Scouts and learned about Carla's death)...he lost his hairs in the next 2 years before Eren & Co join the millitary training.

I like what they are doing with Eren as a character. He was beyond annoying before but this depression mode suits him well. I'm not saying it to be mean, it really looks interesting storywise, not your typical, gonna crush everyone shounen mc just because he had a trauma as a kid without any actual thought about traumatic experience. So well done, hope it'll keep getting better.

A perfect episode. You'd think that since it's a flashback it might be filler-ish or pointless, but there's so many surprising details from season 1 that have been given so much more meaning in season 3. Did anyone expect Keith of all characters to be so great? The role of a bystander is truly tragic, but god, knowing the context behind why Eren's gear was broken was surprisingly powerful. All Keith wanted to do was protect Carla and Grisha's son.

The ending was masterful too, the choice to overlay the ED with the ending scenes was such a good choice. Carla saying Eren was special for being born had me choked-up like all hell, one of the most powerful moments in the season for me. I'm truly surprised because I expected most people's opinions of the show to drop due to Uprising, but this season's been absolutely fantastic so far. If it keeps up this quality all the way to the end, I can truly see AoT being recognised as an anime masterpiece.

If THAT was meant to be the "boring" part of this series I can only fucking imagine how good the next arc is going to be. Even though it slowed down a bit at the start, everything past episode 5 of this season has been utterly fantastic.

So far it seems like after episode 12 there will be at least a three week break. Rumors are that it'll actually be a 3 month break and this season will be split-cour, but nothing has been confirmed yet :c
