Haven't seen an adaptation this faithful for an EP's content 1:1 since Season 1 tbh

I myself don't mind trimming as long as it isn't something absolutely substantial (which they did very well lately, contrary to what a vocal minority will scream to you in here), but I can always appreciate when they can fit such a good adaptation in that timeframe this well, too.

Also, Pieck's ass, now people can finally calm their tits, as if Isayama wouldn't adapt his memes, they are part of what he enjoys the most writing his manga lol

5/5, next episode will be the
, and people will finally know where the manga hype is coming from for this final season.

It's an anime original scene. This guy was confusing her with Gabi and praised her thinking it was her. At least I think that's what my limited Japanese allows me to understand.

Im really happy with How this episode ends up being adapted. It has perfect pacing. Only Colt/Zeke Base all scene was remove but i think it was fine to cut it. What i dont like is this 1 or 2% negative people shout their opinions louder than the praises that MAPPA & Cygames should listen to. Why always the pessimistic side of people is always more louder/listened first. This was by far the Best one with pacing & animation wise. Even the blur was reduced to the bare minimum. And they even later added Pieck crawling scene! What more people should ask for. Both manga readers & anime onlys should only praises it for now.




The only concern that i have is about this cg feast in the fight. So what are yours opinions aot brothers & sisters? I hope when the big fights starts they will blend 3dcg shots & movements along with good 2d shots of maybe close ups as well. I pray that it wont end up only 3dcg even for the close up shots.

I am suprised that you didn't include more shots of Piecks all fours ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
🤣😂🤣😂✌️Im joking
The Best one so far episode! Really liked the whole some moments. Especially when Pieck was eating Pizza. Her expression was priceless!

Your comment is wrong in so many ways
I can point lots of Isayama memes being cut like Armin dressed up as a girl getting sexually harrassed
Countless of episodes since season 1 have been adapted 1:1.
And no, they fucked up in episode 2 and 3. Titan wall invasion. Zeke showing concern over ackermans.

Really good episode! Only one thing that bothered me:

The post-credit scene lacked a bit of suspence and shock. I really liked that shot from the trailer where Reiner was slowly walking down the stairs. I wish his face would have looked a little bit more shocked too upon seeing Eren. Well, let's see how the scene plays out next episode though :)

1- What are you even talking about, never said there wasn't any ep adapted 1:1 since season 1, just that none that was adapted faithfully like this since season 1 (meaning the setup; slow paced exposition, minor additions and overall atmospheric without really skipping a single thing, overall very solid slow-burner instead of the fast pacing we got ever since Season 2 with rare exceptions... which, on themselves, were trimmed and "quick action" focused overall).

2- That wasn't really a meme, just a black comedy panel, which context in the story segment was changed to be more dramatized of an operation in the anime instead, so it wouldn't fit. Uprising in general was not a very good adaptation, at that, and heavily modified as requested by Isayama himself, so I would say the point still goes towards that, even because it was his personal choice to adapt it like it went (meaning he was very aware what was going to make that cut and what wasn't). He specifically wanted to trim that arc the most he could after all.

3- And no, those were fine as is, it was a good cut and I will just link you a 12+ paragraphs long reply in which I analyzed them in the previous ep's thread compared to the content to be covered soon and why everything was adapted considerably very well without losing anything substantial (though someone already made a post detailing it even better than myself some days ago), if you want to keep going on that point.

Did Eren really just meet his grandpa? I did not expect that to happen, I thought he might've died years ago. But of course he wasn't there was a doc, but as a patient instead.
The end gets me damn hyped... just like last episode. Only for this episode to be a bit of a letdown again. It feels like barely anything is happening in these episodes and we're already 25% through with this season ;_;

The calm before the storm. Maybe this was the first time the kids were able to be normal kids. Their festival scenes were both heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time.

So the old dude was Eren's grandpa, huh? Nice coincidence.

Oooooh, it looks like shit's about to go down next episode with the long-awaited reunion teased at the very end. I can't wait.

A little something to remember Zophia.

She had the least attention out of the 4 candidates in the manga.

Ayy the pacing was great, definitely my favorite ep thus far. I love the scene between Eren and his grandpa. When Eren triggered him and he had a mental breakdown the direction and voice acting were perfect. They really put you into the granfather's shoes and how much he is suffering/regretting how things turned out.

Literally can't wait for the next episode. I am glad there will be a two week break if they will make this episode as good as they possibly can. If it's anywhere near as good as in the manga, it will be a masterpiece.

If Mappa could continue with similar quality up to the very end it would be awesome. I can't say anything bad about this episode. Tybur looks and feels good.

When I read the manga for the first time, the last scene of this episode was actually when I realised that this was Eren(well Reiner said it himself, hard not to notice), but all characters in the manga look the same to me, half of them have the same hair colour, when they introduced so many new characters, and the time skip, I could barely follow who was who.

The battle scene from the first episode was very good, but I doubt they will be able to pull of every single one of the bigger fights, I'm saying that because you never know with amazing first episodes, next fights could look like shit, guess we'll have to see. I hope that there won't be many situations like last episode, where the pacing is so fast it's not even funny. This time they managed.

Don't get your hopes up too much.

MAPPA is soing a good job with this adaptation I must say.

This episode was pretty satisfaying after all. I still can not get used to MAPPA's animation style. Seeing Eren's gradfather loosing his mind, and having major panic attack not nowing that he was talking to his grandson was emocional. Its good to now that he regrets things which he had done in the past. He realised it could have been pevented. Its obvious that it was propably the last "light'' episode. Now the real action will start. I'm not really sure if im emocinally ready for the upcoming episodes Its getting dark. Im looking forward to seeing Rainer and Eren confrontation.

PIECK ASS PIECK ASS https://imgur.com/a/RtpMuRG Everyone was so pissed about them skipping this last week lol, MAPPA came thru in the clutch.

MAPPA have blown these first 4 eps out of the park honestly. I was always a huge Gabi stan, but I feel like they’ve just given such great character to all of the Marley cast. The voice acting, direction, etc just been amazing. It just feels like it hits differently from WIT.

That post credits scene...And there it is, probably my most anticipated manga panel in history. Next week is where peak fiction really starts.
