Ackerman-Levi said: I haven't watched the entire episode yet, but I did find a clip of Levi vs Monke Round 2 on YouTube. It was ok, but extremely underwhelming in comparison to Season 3 Part 2's Levi vs Monke. The lack of Arifumi Imai (or someone of his caliber) combined with CGI Monke really let down this fight, and I really hope these two aspects are fixed for atleast the first few episodes of Season 4 Part 2 (I'm aware that the latter portions of the season will be impossible to animate without CGI)/ the movie. it wasn't close to Imai quality true they need to fix the trees on BD,since they won't be changing the CGI.. at the very least  https://streamable.com/d2hxws S4P2 first episodes would have highest quality production wise but don't hold your breath |

| AHHHH is how I feel. The table scene was done well!! |
 just wanna feel wanted by someone other than the police 😫 |
| That beast titan cgi was not great ngl.. but seeing eren beat the absolute shit out of armin and Levi insult tf out of zeke carried the episode anyways so its cool |
| clannad is the greatest piece of fiction to ever exist. |

He might be lurking in the forums looking for whoever comments here to then go to his/her profile and spoil stuff. I just got notified of a deleted comment on my account. It was probably them, who posted before realising that I'm up to date with the manga lmao. What a sad existence those trolls have. |

| Yet another amazing episode. It's a shame that it got cut by the earthquake warnings though, but hey, AOT can wait, but earthquake warnings cannot. Eren had no filter at the start of this episode bruh. Zeke's plan seemed to be going off so smoothly, but Levi came in and swooped all of that hype in their short-but-sweet fight scene. |
 |
| After sailing the high seas and watching the episode with some reasonable subs online, yeah, it was a banger. The scene with Eren, Armin and Mikasa was perfectly done. Loved the back and forth between them. Yuki Kaij is killing it as Eren this year. The dull, monotone, lifeless sounding Eren just fits his character at this point perfectly. The Levi / Zeke fight actually gets better the more you watch it. The ApeTitan OST got me hyped AF, and the Levi/Kenny OST wasn't quite as good but still got me going. The mix of CGI and 2D was perfect until Levi chased Zeke through the forest and it just became a little choppy at times, but overall it was still far better than I'd expected it to be given there were no super-freelancers involved, and the staff were supposed worked to a nub again trying to get this out on time. They didn't censor Zeke's mangled corpse either, so props to MAPPA for some good work there. Obviously, there's a conversation which took place between Eren and Zeke which the audience and the rest of the Paradisians aren't privy to yet, but hopefully that gets revealed soon. Hopefully the official release doesn't get postponed for more than a day or two. The last two episodes have been minimum 9/10, and easily the best run of episodes since 5 through to 8. |
| Good ep, enjoyed seeing Armin get his shit rocked lmfao. Levi vs beat titan was still pretty good and did justice to the manga which is all I really care about. |
| Very good episode, no doubt. It's a shame the they couldn't air the rest of the episode. |
 |
| Haven't seen the ep yet. Is the streaming version affected by the earthquake as well? |
| Today I remembered when Hange-San spent the whole night telling Eren about her experiments - I miss those days. Levi Heichou - King ❤️❤️ |
| that eren vs armin scene was beautiful |

| Finally seeing the "nasty" Eren table scene animated and more than anything, being expertly acted out, was one riveting watch. Mikasa breaking down after being insulted made for compelling, yet very sad viewing. My feelings of Isayama going the wrong narrative direction after reaching the sea have not changed at all though. I have made them abundantly clear in the manga discussions so I won't dwell on them here, but I still feel that I'm seeing an impostor when I see Eren. |

| What really happened at the forest back in S2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrqZ80FvQDQ |
| damn based Eren laying the smackdown to tucasa and armheen. Still think they should've got a new VA for S4 Armin, or at least direct inoue to give a deeper voice (which I'm sure she can do just fine) lmao Levi vs monke was alright I guess, kinda flew by pretty quickly with that little buildup tbh |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| I'm still convinced Mikassa will kill Eren either through necessity or as an act of mercy. I cant seen how else they will wrap this up in 2 episodes. Its a shame the author went in this direction, instead of giving him more personality he now less less and has turned into a bit of a dick (not sure if this is intentional or not at this point) |

| wow what a episode, im glad armin got at least one good punch in. Eren is taking it too far to make mikasa cry and armin upset like dang. The whole scene with Levi and Zeke was satisfying to see him beat him once again, sad the whole episode didnt air tho |
 |
| David Whitaker returns in my wholesome OST with Hiroyuki Sawano, that's all I need right there. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
Tellatez said: sometimes this attitude by mikasa blows me like how she immediately pinned armin to the table just the same way eren knew she would consciously listen to him. Levi just clapping everyone in sight. But great episode , nothing less.A lot of shots of characters being off-model. EMA table scene was done great. Seeing Eren btfo of Armin animated was satisfying to watch. And Mikasa being exactly what Eren told her. Instead of helping her friend, she's just crying there being useless in the background. Zeke vs Levi was great. Also, Zeke is so hilarious to watch. Did they seriously cut the part that talks about the Historia pregnant due date cuz that's kinda important. Floch looked good this episode. We didn't see Keith getting beat up. Broadcast got cut due to an earthquake. The full episode is also delayed I hope it isn't postponed to next week. |

| Quick question, why did Levi say "their bodies didn't freeze up though, was that a lie?". Can anyone explain the lie? |
| Shoot first, think never. |
| So only a little more than 1/2 of the episode actually aired because of an earthquake, which I have never seen before. What we got was crazy though. Eren decided to burn his bridges with Mikasa & Armin and gave conflicting answers about whether he is on Zeke’s side. I don’t believe that Eren always hated Mikasa, but could that explain why he attacked her that one time when he was a titan? Levi vs Zeke round 2 was crazy. The forest really was a huge advantage with Zeke losing just as quickly as last time. I hope the rest of the episode comes soon. |

| Levi vs. Beast titan exceeded my expectations. We know how crazy Levi scenes looked in previous seasons and I think MAPPA did those scenes of Levi slicing titans justice. I won't talk about CGI. CGI is CGI whether we like it or hate it. It looked off but not horrible, but the Beast Titan model looked fine to me. The highlights of this episode though were: Zeke's "Not again!" LMAO and Levi's "Short time no see" Had to rewatch those scenes a couple of times. |
| I sometimes forget to finish my sentences. |
| Looks like the Rumbling started early xd |

Fuji-O said: deg said: table scene got a lot of off model drawings and the fight between Armin and Eren is not sakuga worthy the Levi vs Beast Titan fight is animated good enough but not so much of a wow factor no Imai lol people are expecting him on this episode that breaking news though The Rumbling started i mean an Earthquake started lol but good thing the quake is just magnitude 4.6 Did you really expect a simple 10 seconds scene of Eren pounding Armin to be a sakuga worthy moment ? LOL And about Imai, whoever was expecting him to be part of this episode was setting themself up for dissapointment. 10 seconds is a lot you know, there are less than 10 seconds sakuga like here is a recent example https://www.sakugabooru.com/post/show/148203 err look around the subforum people are wishing and expecting Imai to appear lol |
Fuji-O said: deg said: 10 seconds is a lot you know, there are less than 10 seconds sakuga err look around the subforum people are wishing and expecting Imai to appear lol But it was just few punches and one knee strike in the manga. What sakuga do you want ? It's not God of HIgh school or any shonen. And I know that people are expecting Imai to appear but that's preety stupid given that there is no proof of that whatsoever. lol im not expecting God of High School sakuga just decent enough sakuga would be cool like i said its not sakuga worthy thats all |
| my new favorite episode of the season i think been waiting so long for the table scene to be animated, and mappa did not disappoint there my boy levi being badass i love him but the animation was eh beast titan cg was whack but i won’t hate on it too much i think the last time we heard the ost used for zeke vs levi was during the kenny vs levi fight? |

| HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!! This had to be one of the greatest reveals in storytelling history! My mind is blown from what Eren said at the table. And that news broadcast all of a sudden? I thought the war broke out for real, PRICELESS!! Guys some help please: Levi immediately knew it was because of the spine fluid in the wine. Who told him that and when? |
Fuji-O said: deg said: lol im not expecting God of High School sakuga just decent enough sakuga would be cool like i said its not sakuga worthy thats all I am just saying that AoT isn't the type of series that has sakuga moments in a fistfight scene like some battle shonens, especially given the fact that this scene is so short and simple choreographically. I would rather expect Levi vs Zeke to have sakuga moments than Eren vs Armin. err why not both? and there was fist fights sorta on previous seasons if i remember right like that Levi OVA afaik heck the Eren beatdown of Mikasas kidnappers was good enough sakuga |

I would rather expect Levi vs Zeke to have sakuga moments than Eren vs Armin. Every moment in the anime has to be a high frame overanimated sakuga scene to be considered good. Don't you know that by now already? Fuck the poor bastards animating it and fuck the tone of the story. Fuck whether sakuga causes the scene to feel awkward to the story and distorts the tone. I need Muh Sakugaaa. exactly sakuga is important on a visual story medium like anime look at previous seasons for example if you want to focus on the story then better rate the manga higher like i did |
| Oh for fuck's sake the table talk. They made it so good that I hate it. Damn... Also, Zeke finally revealed his own plans, everyone except Lei drank that damn wine. You're gonna have to wait for a bit, Erwin. 2D titans! I guess the stress has lifted from the staff. Damn, this scene had great fucking animation. Levi did have to kill all of his "subordinate" titans. Damn, even Zeke is very pissed and annoyed. Two angry guys facing off here. Zeke got fucked again, this time looking like tree skin. Damn then, that is the episode for now. I hope people are fine. I'm not sure how bad a 4.6 magnitude earthquake is so I don't know how bad the situation is. But everyone knows that Japan is prone to a lot of eathquakes. |

He aldready knew what spine fluid was. But thought that when people got injeckted with it, then they freeze, something that was a lie Zeke told. So he added 2 and 2 together and deduced that it had to be in the wine. |
 |
Having finally watched what's available of the episode, I'm very disappointed that they cut out these specific lines. Should've just gotten rid of the cold intro and adapted the whole thing. Other than that they did a great job. It really is unfortunate how Zeke vs Levi didn't get the sasuga treatment it deserved, but the direction, storyboarding and ost usage were on point. Still prefer the manga version but the team did a good job. Hopefully part 2 will be free of these production issues holding back this season's full potential. |
