| After watching second season this ova makes more sense |
 |
| How have I not watched the ova, the titan worshiping ilse's body makes sense now after watching season 2. |
 |
| SNK never fails ya damn that was really good. |
| Woah, talking normal titan? Wonder what that's all about. The girl might've survived longer if she didn't start yelling at it, not the smartest thing to do. |
 |
| Interesting story. Her dedication to write down everything until her very end is worth it. I guess that Titan can't handle his guilt and decided to end her despite her being a Ymir descendant?! |
  |
| I'm only watching this now, 4 years late. Who cares as long as I get to see it. Damn, Hanji really is crazy. I love it. She's fucking insane for almost getting everyone in Levi's squad killed... earlier than they did in the series and she's not apologetic at all lol Talking Titan! I remember this from the manga. Bowing and calling Ilse, Ymir-sama. Ilse should've shut the fuck up and they would've learned so much more. Titan-kun ripped off his face :( He stored Ilse's headless body inside the tree, he still honored her to an extent considering how he lost control. |
| 臭い- |
| I think I came too late to the party for this OVA cuz I watched 3 seasons lol. So, this ova makes more sense, especialy after watching season 2. The way the titan preserved Ilse's body was creepy :O |

Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| It was nice to see more focused put on Levi's and Erwin's squad especially Hanji. The talking Titan and mentioning something about Ymir, I wonder how this will add development to the main story. |
| Hmmm..why did that Titan kill her? |
 |
| This was a great episode as far as OVA goes..lets hope the other 2 are just as good.. |
 "Not everyone who works hard is rewarded. But, all those who succeed have worked hard" |
| Hange is awesome! |
| Based Certified. I love anime armpits. |
| WOW, that was a really interesting episode for an OVA. adds so much to the story. and the way that titan kept Ilse's body in the tree was so creepy. that ending narration of how they captured the titans 20 days later gave me chills. seeing oluo & petra again :'( in the grand scheme of things, my life isn't worth anything damn GREAT EPISODE |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Wow watching this again after Season 3, it just hit different... |
 |
| Wow that was very interesting knowing that a regular titan that had some kind of human emotions existed. Also how those capturing techniques came into place, I like this OVA so far |
| This episode of the OVA focuses more on Hanji and her weird personality which almost seems like she has a death wish But things get a little out of hand by her recklessness and found a notebook lying and she read through it and flashbacks were presented A titan that can speak and can be understood by humans that was a first for mankind glad that was able to be written down sadly sacrificed in the process and that's how Hanji got the titans in the first place. |
  |
| Damn look at Hange strength, able to hold Oluo like that. Ilse journal must hold a good ground for Hange to put more of her effort to the titan research. That being said, even the unknown surveyor like Ilse able to put a good research toward titan and become the pioneer for the recent Hange research. Even if its cost her whole life. Interesting ova indeed. |

| greaat ova. watching this again after knowing why those things happened just .. wow. not a Single life was lost in that titan-capturing expedition?? DAMN good for themm!! |
| 7/10. Awesome Adaption of Chapter 18.5. Great added depth as always from S1 by adding depth with the background characters (Isle's parents), and explaining how that allowed Hange to capture Titans. Although, the change of Hange and the team finding that same Titan, with it banging on the tree where he hid the body of Isle is intriguing and odd, but appropriate. Instead of Levi simply finding the notebook while on expedition. Unless a hint of Titan or Isle's body is mentioned in another chapter. I don't remember since stopping at Chapter 96 in 2015- now I'm rereading it while finally starting S2. I wish they showed the moment from Chapter 20 where Hange was about to tell Eren about Isle before they were told that her captured titans were killed, which they cutout from S1 of the anime. |
| I waited years upon years for an English dub release of these OVA's and now they're here. Dub was peak as usual. |

| I CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED THESE OVAS UNTIL NOW! First Talking Titan ever!!! And here I thought that platypus was it! |
 |
| Hanji is really excited, she thinks the titan is toy, I'm curious about Hanji's family, definitely not like Petra's family. She reminds me of a psychopathic scientist who follows a heroic protagonist. Hanji, if it weren't for an anime character, I don't think she would have looked like that. Erwin has a fondness for Hanji, I think something happened in the past that made them so close. When Levi grabbed Hanji's collar, I thought, "Wow this detail is so precious." Both Levi and Hanji should have as much interaction as it is in their nature. This ep is very interesting. I am wondering about the number of survey operations of the survey corps. They go about 15 times a year, so they go home once a month. But if they went to explore to expand the area, wouldn't the farther they go, the more days they return once? So 1 year they go and return less than 10 times will be more reasonable. That means Ilse's discovery should be the 41-42 instead of 34, or she'll be dead over 2 years instead of 1 year. This ep evokes the imagination very well. All speculations make sense. Ilse's writing ability is amazing. When the titan's mouth is on her head, she can still write ok i'm fine Ilse's act of returning her belongings to her family caused Hanji to level up in character development. She is very responsible. It was the opposite of her lust for the titan instead of safety of her comrades. If only Ilse wrote about her family in her diary. |

| Very good episode |
 |
| [Re-Watching] Fantastic episode, it adds so much to the series especially if you've hadn't seen Season 2 yet and didn't know Titans could speak. Just the fact that Ilse made sure to note everything down despite knowing it could be her final few seconds. |

| Watching this after having watched the entire show, and realising this OVA came out before season 2 even aired is crazy to me- the amount of information revealed was insane |
