    That's the main difference between Historia's and Eren's reactions to the bullshit story. Historia was asked to kill her friend to save humanity. Eren was asked to kill himself. Historia doing that may be practical but cruel. Eren doing that is heroic, coz yknow, he's the protagonist. His life is his own to spend. Historia doesn't have the right to kill him. That's the critical difference.
    What he said. Plus: No matter what you claim, Darth, without Eren reacting unexpectedly, Historia wouldn't have snapped, wouldn't have returned to being a good person. That makes her a bitch in my book.

    Mfauli be like:

    "You can save humanity from imminent doom by killing that dude you know, but never really talked with"

    "...wha... o-ok..no, no let me think about it"
    "I will no-.."

    "YOU BITCH, YOU THOUGHT ABOUT DOING IT"

    You say that, but he's had at least 3 friends who've turned out to be titans, that he's wanted nothing more than to horribly murder the instant he found out. Because his goal is just titan genocide.

    Sure, but Historia isn't a titan.

    I wonder if thats why Reiss said he must not become a titan, because he knew what kind of creature he'd turn into.

    Quite the Deus Ex Machina just stumbling onto a bottle of armor titan juice.

    I wonder, was that label written in the "lost tongue" that Ymir knew? I'd imagine not since no one else saw or mentioned it, but that could point to him having some access to those old memories.

    This episode really set some things straight that I didn't even realize I didn't understand (derp):

    1) Riess king's bloodline gets brainwashed by prime titan power to keep humanity ignorant and imprisoned

    2) Titan powers can be consumed and they seem to be cumulative.

    3) The hole in wall Maria is what is keeping them out of the basement, apparently, which we learned in Season one, but I had no idea that plugging the wall was their first move to get to the basement for real.

    4) Papa Jager suspected or knew that the Reiss family had no intention of using their powers to remove the titans, so action had to be taken. Good deduction, Armin

    5) Historia is best girl (unless Hange gets some more screen time w/o the goggles)

    6) Eren is worst boy; seriously, Levi is getting tired of telling you to make decisions...

    I'm not sure that he knew that. I thought it was more because he licked the Titan Juice instead, which made his transformation bogus.

    I had no idea where the Armour Titan bottle came from. It's not even armour plates like our blond macho guy - it's the actual crystalised deal. I don't remember that being brought up at all.

    Why is the crystal matter so fragile? We see it constantly shatter to pieces, be it at the end when Reiss destroyed everything, but also when everyone used their maneuver gear which managed to bash into the crystal pillars.

    Yet, Annie's crystal matter is indestructible? Ok ...


    Historia is still worst girl, suddenly taking herself oh so important. Eren is a true hero, still willing to give up his life for everyone's sake.

    This was also unclear to me until this episode.

    Riess described it as "obtaining the First King's knowledge of the history of the world." And made it sound like, once you know everything that's going on, you'll make the same decision he did.

    But this episode presents it as "No, actually, the First King just possesses you, and forces you to keep enacting his original plan."

    Of course, I guess there's no actually proof that the Scout's version is true and Riess' version was wrong. Maybe he was telling the truth and the scouts are just choosing to interpret it this way so they can feel good about their decision.

    I had no idea what you guys were talking about until I re-read those subs again.

    For one, the Freida doesn't seem like she was just brainwashed by the First King. Sure, they all gave off blank stares etc every now and again, but possession wasn't even suggested.

    On the other hand, Rod calls them Gods. His fixation and admiration for a "God" makes more sense if the First King actually manifests through, as opposed to just guiding new successors with a photographic textbook.

    Episode 46



    Even though I dislike the time period and how warfare evolved during their time of use, there is something extraordinarily charming about a canon volley.

    Artillery fire is just.....so delightful.

    She isn't a dwarf, she would have weird proportions then. She's tiny though and that's hot.

    2 cour, and it started about 3 weeks late, so I'd expect it to last till mid January. I think last week was no broadcast due to bad weather coverage.
