jrnoodles

can i get the newest episodes 12-15 and the ones later on, i paid for the anime tier and the episodes after 11 is locked for some reason

Matt

there's an uncut anime tier for $3, and an early access anime tier for $6, if you don't have the early access one, then youtube notifications can let you watch them uncut here

Mr. Phantom

Thanks big dawg. Mwah

Collin

Thanks for commenting this, for some reason I guess i never unlocked it, but it is unlocked now

Studio Geck

I didn't, and none of the other episodes are locked before this. It made me upgrade the tier :/

Collin

Make sure you didint just buy a single ep

Thelcia

If I have the anime only tier, why is the new episode locked for me? :(

Collin

I understood it just fine. If you're going to reply to someone's message just stick to the topic. Or, at the very least, try and be constructive if you want to address someone's grammar. I'll remind you this is an online forum and not a medium for professional writing.

Jacob Lancaster

I think you can message them on Patreon, if not I'd suggest their discord server

Brady

Hopefully I can get a refund, I was planning on renewing my previous membership 🤦🏻‍♀️ How do I get in contact with the creators

Thelcia

Yeah that’s a good call, thanks! I think I’ve watched it but that was so long ago I don’t remember much anyways

Goat

bro so cooked

Henry Huynh

oh yeah, fuck I accidently just bought the post itself and not the membership lmao Dx

Thelcia

I think I might’ve accidentally just BOUGHT the post it self- does anyone know if a refund is Available cause I’m gonna buy the anime only membership anyway

I remember it getting recommended for me on YT, ever since then ive literally been waiting for its release.!!

Thelcia

Just watched that shit, been hyped for months honestly- dont know if am i fan of the story but animation goes hard so far

Thelcia

Hey I need help! I just renewed my membership and only THIS/the latest aot video is unlocked for me? WASNT like this before- what do i do?

Thelcia

He forgot about Frieda just like Historia lol

Heim

you should watch the extended edition of season 1 (Psycho-Pass Extended Edition), it is instead eleven 45-minute episodes with new footage added alluding to events included in the official novel. The quality of the scenes is also upgraded, with repairs made to several bugs, and enhanced special effects, especially of the Dominator.

Linus Pettersson

Guys, I don't know if you'll see this, but consider watching Psycho Pass as your next seinen anime, at least the first season. It is very different from the stuff you've watched so far and is quite short (only 22 episodes in S1). I'm rewatching it now and it's even better than I remember. Brings up tons of stuff for discussion

Dude relax on the ova thing, it was a joke. You clearly made the comment knowing people would respond to you with shock, come on don’t lie. I’m not insulting you, I’m pointing out obvious flaws in your argument which make yourself look silly by your own words. I have no problem with a different opinion but I will not shy away from a debate with someone with a different opinion than me. Where did I misinterpret your points, I answered each of your points and went into great detail, you’re not going to comment back because you know you have been proven incorrect in many points. You clearly didn’t read my comment fully. I already stated multiple times that he didn’t intend for civilians in stohess to die, his plan was to trap Annie in secret and take her to custody. That failed and so people died because of Annie’s and erens actions, that was not Erwin’s plan at all. He didn’t go into stohess intending for people to die, they died because of the actions of other characters. His life’s mission is to learn the truth which benefits humanity, the goals of both link up so no he’s not doing it purely selfishly. Please pose your solutions to how stohess should have been dealt with because I’m sure we are all keen to hear your plan

I love how much Bradlynn loves Connie because he is SO underrated, but just wonderful. Also, this episode really made me love Historia.

Dani G

Where is breaking bad

Conk

@Sean Carroll My perspective would be the same regardless. The OVAs have nothing to do with me making the comment. I just think Erwin is incredibly overrated and misunderstood. I didn't think it'd be that crazy to say Pyxis is more likeable Erwin has far more aspects of his personality/character to take issue with. Also, you would benefit greatly if you learned to not randomly insult people with different opinions than your own. Honestly, I don't care to take the time to fully address your points; it'd take too long, especially since you misinterpreted several of them. I'll just say that I don't think he's heartless or a coward. He puts his own life on the line, but that doesn't change my main issue, which is that he doesn't value life as much as I feel he should. Not only this, but he's not actually doing it for the sake of humanity. I'm not saying I don't understand his methods, just that I disagree with them. Stohess is the primary example for me, as that's something Pyxis would never do, at least in my eyes. It may be idealistic, but there is no justification for intentionally harming/killing civilians in war (especially in a huge gamble), at least in such large amounts. I won't say I don't respect or admire aspects of his character in any way; I could never be a commander in a military conflict, because I just wouldn't be able to send other people to their likely deaths. However, once he intentionally involved civilians, I lost a lot of respect for him. I do have alternative ideas of what he could have done here, but they'd still be gambles, but ones that don't kill civilians.

TheSauceGuy

@TheSauceGuy It resembles the shape of the thing that causes the sound of the ground shaking. Lol.

BRO.

Carter confirmed they saw it. Also you’re comment doesn’t make sense

Sean Carroll

Don't get your hopes up lol.

TheSauceGuy

My man changed his name from Flegel to Grisha because of the hate he received, but it made no difference.

TheSauceGuy

@BRO. Give me a tiny hint lol. I feel like it could be two things.

TheSauceGuy

there’s another one of these that’s even more blatant (and was changed from the manga into the anime, likely under isayamas direction) i’ll point it out when we see that one

Thane Clark

Friendly reminder to watch the post credit scene. It's insane and very cool to see and prob will spoil them when they are just 1 or 2 episodes away so not a big deal

Rodrigo Figueroa

How old are you? 12

Sean Carroll

are you making these comments on Erwin assuming up to ep 8 season 3 or are you making them based on his entire story and arc? The OVA thing was simply me making a joke about how you are so desperate for them to watch the OVA's and because they are not watching them you throw your toys out of the pram and make a hot take you know you will get flamed for. 1. yes exactly, having a drink with pyxis would be more fun than having a social interaction with Erwin, we are in agreement there. 2. this is completely false. The show makes it clear through character conversations that the entire military respects Erwin for his achievements as a commander, not just the scouts. The Military police see him as a threat because of his actions. Erwin came up with the smoke shell device and sysytem which has greatly reduced casualties (goes against your "reckless killing" opinion). This all without the need for Erens titan abilities. Now that Eren is in the picture of course its a trump card he is going to use. In Keiths backstory he made it clear that previous commanders didnt have the same success or motivation necessary to push further and even Keith failed because while he had the necessary motivation he also just wasnt cut out for it which he admits. Everyone in the scouts knows that if they decide to join they are most likely going to die at some point. The very decision to join the scouts means they are willing to die if ordered to. As I said above, Erwins actions and motivations also align with humanitys as a whole so if sacrificing soldiers for the greater good is necessary then so be it. Can you really call erwin morally questionable if he acts honestly and fairly to all soldiers by telling them the brutal truth of their decision to join the scouts? He doesnt lie to his soldiers. Yes Pyxis succeeded in using Erens abilities in Trost, I never said he didnt. Im saying that Erwin is the guy who would find the best possible path forward while using erens abilities. I dont see PYxis in the long run being able to do that. 3. Pyxis literally guilt tripped soldiers into staying at the battle of Trost who were going to leave, he knew what he was doing with the words he used. You seem to be justifying Pyxis actions while shitting on Erwin for similar actions. Again, while Erwins motivations are selfish to an extent his motivations and actions are in line with the goals of humanity i previosuly stated. Where does Erwin "manipulate" soldiers into dying? Sure he is willing to sacrifice soldiers for the greater good but like I said he doesnt lie to them when they join the scouts, they know what to expect and he even says "could you die if you were ordered to", if someone decides to stay at that point its really on them. The guy does not lie to his soldiers, he makes it clear from the moment they join the scouts what i expected of them. Erwins initial plan with Annie in Stohess was to get her underground where they could restrain her, if that failed he had to come up with a plan B and C which he did. the plan failed because annie caught on to them. Erwins plan if it has worked would have not resulted in death, his intention at first was to have no civilian casualties. Again, when the civilians die Erwin doesn't lie to Nile, he admits that this happened because of his plan, he doesn't shy away from accepting responsibility. Erwin withheld information because he didn't know who he could trust out of the soldiers who joined in the last 5 years... did you not pay attention to that part? If success is gained from a mission than people did not die unnecessarily, they succeeded in capturing Annie which was a major victory that proves it was all worth it, if they never caught Annie and she got away forever than yes it would have all been for nothing. Those soldiers who died would be proud to die for the greater good. Maybe you have a different mentality surrounding self sacrifice than other people. How are you saying that these expeditions never amounted to anything??? All commanders previously used tax payer money etc and as keith states, those missions never amount to anything. Erwin is the most successful commander in history and these missions that he does amount to victory (not all the time), they succeed in figuring out who the female titan is and almost capture her, if she didn't have hardening ability they would have succeeded. Also in the OVA which you lve so much, Ilses notebook is found due to one of Erwins expeditions which amounts to them leanring more about titans and Hange convincing Erwin to let her capture and experiment on titans again, this leads to further understanding about titans which in the long run is valuable information. This disproves your point on these missions never amount to anything. I understand the purpose of Isayamas writing of Erwin however I liek to look deeper than simply calling him a selfish character who doesnt have any care for soldiers or other lives when this is clearly proven to be wrong. 4. Why would scout soldiers join the regiment if they didnt believe in Erwin or the regiment, where does that belief in Erwin come from? It comes from his previous successes which you seem to skip over by saying "these expeditions etc never amount to anything". I never said anything about it being true or not, I simply said that they have belief in him to push humanity forward to a greater good, if they didnt they wouldnt have joined the regiment. Well obviously the scouts are the smallest regiment given they are the ones risking their lives to save humanity, death comes with the job they chose to sign up for. what is this comment meant to prove? 5. Yes they are subjective view points, I proved my subjective viewpoint and you provided yours. What are these other options you speak of though? Care to ponder a few better options? if Violent intervention occurred (which it didnt so we will never know) I believe that Erwin and Pyxis would have been able to work together to get the issue sorted. Its also crucial that the scouts save Eren from Rod in the meantime to ensure there is no memory erasure 6. Curious why point 6 is the one you had the least response to and completely ignored my points about Erwin sacrificing his arm and saying he can be replaced which goes against your "erwin is selfish" argument, funny that. I wouldnt call it an assumption. Keith states that previous commanders failed because they didnt see big picture and didnt have the motivation to push humanity forward. Keith may have succeeded with Erens titan abilities but likely he would have overused him out of desperation which he states that he had gotten too obsessed over his goal. Erwin is far more level headed which is obvious and he has so far been able to succeed in 4 missions with Erens titan powers, capturing Annie, escaping from Reiner and Bertholdt, escaping Rods chapel and defeating Rod. You amount my point to Erwin simply being "all knowing" which is disingenuous as I proved multipe times in my comments why Erwin would succeed compared to others and not once did I come across as Erwin is simply "all knowing", that is both an insult to my points and to the writing of Isayama. 7. Erwin is willing to sacrifice his soldiers which according to you means he doesnt value them... Well this is clearly proven false in ep 14 and 16 where he has intense guilt about his sacrificing of soldiers, he is not heartless like you seem to be thinking he is. You have very clearly painted Erwin with one brush rather than look at him deeper than you believe he is. I cant think of any real world examples off the top of my head. If you want to suggest some individuals then maybe we could discuss those. 8. I dont care about the meat and omelette OVA and judging by many other people in here including the geks it looks like they dont care either

Sean Carroll

Caught that too! Also I forgot what Grisha’s titan looked like but when I saw it, I was like wait a minute.. foreshadowing again.

Which is super fast. Idk. I’ve been watching anime for 20+ years and openings just get me hype lol. But everyone’s different.

This show (or rather Isayama) is very good at feeding you small amounts of information leading to one potential right answer then distracting you with completely different information. That's why the Eren eating his dad reveal is so good!! Cause you do wonder where he's been for 5 years but then you get the Annie titan reveal then Reiner and Birth control titan reveal that distracts you. Enough information but never enough...

Hector

It's part of the show

TheSauceGuy

what would your guess be on why Grisha took the founding titan?

TheSauceGuy

@Sean How does this have anything to do with the OVAs? Apart from the last question that I listed as a joke (purely because it relates to Pyxis), literally nothing I said has anything to do with the OVAs lol. To address your points: 1. Yes, but I hate beer, so maybe wine or something lol. The main point of my take revolved around me finding a kind old drunkard more likeable than whatever you want to consider Erwin as. With the ratio I received, I felt I had to elaborate further on my problems with Erwin lol. 2. Eren is the only reason Erwin has been able to show any semblance of success while other commanders before him failed. Shadis did not have a titan-shifter on his side. Pyxis succeeded in closing a gap in the wall (without the help of the Scouts) while having even less of an understanding of Eren's abilities. It doesn't matter how successful Erwin is when his motivations are selfish and his methods are morally questionable. This is an argument about likeability, not justification, even though both are subjective. If the Military Police were to stage a similar reckless mission within an urban sector like Erwin had, people would be mad at them. 3. While Pyxis may feel the sacrifices are worth it, he understands that people should have a choice and doesn't expect them to get themselves killed for something they don't feel is worth dying for. Pyxis also doesn't have selfish motivations or risk civilians like Erwin does. Erwin EXPECTS his soldiers to recklessly get themselves killed to fulfill the mission. It's not admirable to manipulate others into getting themselves and others killed for your selfish desires, regardless of whether or not you want to argue that these desires align with preserving humanity. Erwin wanted Annie to be taken alive so that they could learn from her, but he chose to gamble with the lives of civilians and unprepared soldiers within a densely populated urban sector. Erwin was willing to withhold information from even his own troops, causing many of them to die unnecessarily, all for the sake of the mission. He led expeditions outside the wall, which used resources and taxpayer money, cost the lives of many soldiers, and never amounted to anything. Erwin's actions are supposed to be very morally questionable, but this flies straight over a ton of AoT fans' heads, who just seem to view his actions as unquestionably necessary and justifiable. 4. So because many of the Scouts feel that way about Erwin, that means it's true? And as you said yourself, most of the people who join the Scout Regiment do so because they already believe in Erwin or the regiment. Keep in mind that the Scout Regiment is the smallest regiment by far. 5. Determining whether or not the sacrifices are necessary is completely subjective. As with the real world, there are often other options. You mention the coup not costing lives unnecessarily; this is a fair point, but violent intervention likely would've led to division, among both the military regiments and the civilian population. This would have prevented him from being able to focus on his mission of "learning the truth." 6. Here is another assumption that others would have failed because Erwin the all-knowing is simply better than them. Pyxis is the only other commander as of now to have utilized Eren's abilities, and he succeeded. 7. They align only to a certain extent. Learning "the truth" requires his missions to succeed, but it doesn't usually require him to value the lives of his soldiers, and certainly not those of civilians. I'm not saying Erwin is evil, but his priorities and methods just make him less likable to me than Pyxis, who is a more charismatic character imo as well. If you were to look at real-world parallels to Erwin, who would first come to your mind? What about Pyxis? 8. False lol.

TheSauceGuy

This is my first watch

Jenny D

are you watching along for the first time? or is this your thoughts from your first watch through?

Nick R

@Kiituri, the anime and manga have different spellings of names. In the anime, it's "Pyxis." Another example would be "Eren Jaeger" being "Eren Yeager" in the manga.

TheSauceGuy

figure what out? People always say this but it's always been a positive thing when people watch it. It's meant to be seen that is why it's there

kiiturii

I find her extremely annoying for some reason.

Abogaymer

but you said it yourself - pixis sacrificed those soldiers in trost "for the greater good", whereas Erwin is not motivated by the greater good.

marco

I always thought he was just being honest when he said "I must not become a titan." Think about it. Rod is the first-born son yet wasn't chosen to inherit the Founding Titan, yet his children inherit it from Uri (though we don't know if this is just because Rod had kids while Uri didn't). The most sensible reason for this is that his father could tell using his Founding power that Rod would turn into that thing instead of a regular pure titan, so he passed it to Uri instead. Edit: Also, I'm pretty sure he was able to transform by licking it because Kenny cut him when he stuck his blade in his mouth.

marco

The whole torture thing was messed up and gross. I'm glad Historia didn't take the serum and I hope they take out Rod before he gets to the wall. I really want to see what's in the basement. I think I get why his father took the founding Titan and then gave it to Eren, but with this show anything is possible. I hope his goal was to save humanity, but we'll see. I had a feeling Grisha was dead. That's got to be traumatizing knowing ypu devoured your own father. I'm excited for the next set of episodes

Heim

Sean Carroll

Dudes just saying this because they won’t watch the ovas he keeps begging for 1. I would rather sit down and have a beer with Pyxis because yes he would be more fun socially 2. I’m watching a show about characters trying to kill titans and the show makes it clear that soldiers die every day in this battle. The death of soldiers is sometimes necessary for a greater purpose as Erwin has constantly proven (female titan, stohess etc) yes people dying is terrible but for commanders such as shadis and everyone before him they constantly failed and couldn’t progress humanity further. Erwin has brought humanity forward to this point where they finally have the chance to gain their freedom (as far as they know) 3. Did you forget Pyxis admitting that he sacrificed soldiers in trost for the greater good? I don’t see you mentioning that at all. 4. The show makes it clear from all scout soldiers that they see Erwin as the guy who “sees something greater” and that is why they believe in him and choose to follow him. 5. None of the sacrifices are unnecessary as long as progress is being made which is exactly what is happening under Erwin’s leadership. He also just managed to achieve a bloodless coup de tat in one episode which was his goal, this also shows that he can think of plans outside of sacrificing soldiers. 6. Erens titan abilities are also a big game changer in the progress that humanity is making. This type of trump card requires the most careful of plans on how to use this trump card. Previous commanders would have failed with erens powers because they wouldn’t be able to figure out how to utilise his skills to save humanity, Erwin has proven he can do this. When eren was kidnapped by Reiner etc Erwin sacrificed his arm for erens survival and for his soldiers. He even said that he can be replaced and that they need to save eren. People always forget this when they try and shit on Erwin as some selfish guy. 7. Erwin’s goals align with the goals of humanity (kill the titans, learn the truth). So your point about historical figures fighting for a goal that goes against other people doesn’t correlate as Erwin is on the same team as the people he is both killing and trying to save. 8. Nobody gives a shit about Sasha’s meat or jeans omelette

Sean Carroll

I certainly hope so, give part 2 its own section

Sean Carroll

@rayman this is also valid lol. They both have ups and downs, but I think Erwin has more downs compared to Pyxis, personally.

TheSauceGuy

Lardus and other Geks, I'd love to hear why you guys hold him in such high esteem.

TheSauceGuy

There's always the question of whether or not a sacrifice is "necessary," and sometimes there is a clearer answer than others. If you want a clear historical example, I'd say that the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were obviously not necessary for a Japanese surrender. I could get into this, but I've typed enough for now lol.

TheSauceGuy

Wow thanks Bradlyn my name is Grisha...

Anton Sakshaug

yall should really go back and let them see the info cards after each ep. they have such important pieces of lore and world building that will help with their theories. just quickly go through them after an ep before starting the next ep. don’t even need to spend 5 min on each one. one of them in these episodes talked about what the serum is, another talked about the Founding Titan scream power. they really are so important

rayman

Because "history," get it? Yeah, I prefer Christa, but it doesn't sound as significant. I guess Rod isn't all that noble-sounding either, unless it's short for Roderick.

TheSauceGuy

League players are a notable exception.

TheSauceGuy

if only we had the power of the founder to erase their memories

TheSauceGuy

no I get what he’s saying. Pyxis is more charismatic in a friendlier way. Erwin is very charismatic in a different way, he’s more stoic. You could have a beer and chill with Pyxis but Erwin has too much baggage. He’s too about his mission. He’s inspirational in a I want to die for your mission kind of way. they’re both great leaders for different reasons

rayman

Yet regardless of his motivations I feel that he's still made a far bigger difference to humanity than Pyxis. Maybe it isn't pretty but I feel like the gambling of lives, sacrifice and so his actions are necessary to move humanity forward.

Ollie

@hman70 I'm basically Jesus.

TheSauceGuy

He didn't have to force her; he could've said, "You have to inject yourself with this. We don't have much time, and your friends' lives may depend on it." He could've just explained in detail later.

TheSauceGuy

Alright, Geks and other Erwin glazers (half of the AoT fanbase), hear me out. I'll first make it clear and say that I may like Erwin more as a character, but I don't like him as much as a person. Erwin makes unnecessary sacrifices to achieve his personal goals while devaluing the lives of soldiers and unaffiliated civilians. Assuming his actions didn't already kill me, if I were a soldier under his command, I wouldn't be motivated to follow him; if I were a civilian in Stohess, I'd despise him. His speeches and his "aura" are mostly tools he uses to manipulate people, and they don't factor as much into how likable he is for me. Pyxis has more grounded expectations of people and places a higher value on their lives than Erwin, which is a huge factor in determining likeability for me. His concern over the fate of humanity seems more genuine as well, even if he isn't the tactician that Erwin is. MOST IMPORTANTLY, Pyxis is a funny drunkard who also happens to be bald and sporting a magnificent mustache. I'll take the funny old drunk that genuinely cares about people over the potential sociopath who gets countless people killed in futile expeditions/gambles before the "fate of humanity" is even at stake. I know it's "just a show," but I compare aspects of AoT to our world a lot. Many of the worst atrocities in history (and those that are currently ongoing), regardless of intention, have been caused by people pursuing some greater goal while simultaneously devaluing the lives of some other group. This isn't even exclusive to people, as human action has caused the extinction of hundreds (if not thousands) of other species and decimated the populations of other extant species even more. Okay, this has become a classic SauceGuy rant, and while I could go on forever, it's 4:00 AM, and I'm tired. Important questions to consider ☝️🤓: - To Erwin, the ends justify the means, but to what "end" is he striving for? - Do Erwin's priorities matter if they're benefitting humanity, and where do you draw the line? - Would Erwin have favored Jean's omelette or Sasha's cooked meat?

TheSauceGuy

I was thinking about this, and in my opinion I think he had to talk her into it, because if he just forced her then she might see it as a betrayal and turn against him once she has the power. So I feel like he was trying to keep her on his side.

Ollie

I am wondering if the next 4 episodes gonna be split into two or not

Nurkhat Jumabaev

I’ve not heard McKay once during this rewatch.

Sean Carroll

Soooooo much lore in this season that tbh I forgot most of! And you really do not appreciate Historia’s character development as much the first watch.. and seeing Eren break down like that is so crazy after watching season 4.

Melissa Huynh

I’m always watching out for his comments in videos!

Melissa Huynh

Hail Eren jaeger

Leo

I guess I'll have to wait until Monday to find out if it was included 🫡

Alex Ramirez

We might have watched that today...

Studio Geck

They weren't willing to watch the most significant OVA, so I doubt they'd take the time for that lol.

TheSauceGuy

I'm kinda late on this but do the Geks plan to show the girls the ending/outro for s3e12 (episode 49)?

Alex Ramirez

I mean, he's standing RIGHT in front of her during the injection, so he's at risk regardless.

TheSauceGuy

exactly, it's fun to have some things left open-ended

TheSauceGuy

I think it speaks to his character to a certain extent that he didn’t force it on her physically and answered all her questions. Though I’m sure someone more pessimistic might say he was just scared of getting hurt in the transformation lol

hman70

Maybe it was that he licked it, maybe he had a broken back, or maybe he was telling the truth and there was something genetic or inherent about Rod that made him predisposed to becoming a malformed and dangerous pure Titan. I kind of like that the reader/viewer gets to decide what makes most sense to them

hman70

@Jengit consider Pyxis’ words in this ep. “Unlike you I value the lives of humanity more than my own” as well as Zachary in the last episode. They both make the same shot across the bow right at Erwin’s character and both times he doesn’t even pretend to deny it. We don’t know what motivates Erwin yet but we know that everything he does, every soldier and civilian he sacrifices, isn’t actually for the benefit of humanity, he’s making these ruthless gambles based on his own selfish motivations

hman70

They hated Jesus because he told the truth 🥴

hman70

This is a take I'd expect from a blue checkmark on Twitter when rent is due lmfao

Zu

I think Rod's titan was deformed because Historia broke his back or something when she somehow threw him over herself lol. He also mentioned needing to inject it into your bloodstream, but he could only touch it with his tongue. This is just my speculation, though.

TheSauceGuy

Rod is such an interesting character, especially on subsequent watches.

TheSauceGuy

It's interesting to think that if Rod had just used the injection on Historia and explained things to her after, Eren would have likely been a delicious dinner.

TheSauceGuy

I mean, she did some sick moves in that scene in S2, so she's decent with ODM gear. She also clearly put in a lot of effort to help people.

TheSauceGuy

This could be the hottest take in the 2 year run of the channel so far

Studio Geck

the detail of eren using frieda's hand bite technique the time he transformed to save armin and mikasa (ep9), is such good foreshadowing. the amount of lore drops in these eps alone😭 the girls are keeping up way better than i did on my first watch

beannie

It's a hot take, but Pyxis > Erwin, at least in terms of likeability. Edit: take's so hot I can cook with it

TheSauceGuy

Idk if it's been brought up but do the gek guys show the important mid episode info cards to the girls afterward?

Zu

Based

Brig Andrus

Actually?

Cannon Andrus

I think it’s a pretty name too! I feel like it doesn’t fit her tho idk.. just my vibes

pearl

I dont think I heard mckay at all these episodes

YourGuy

levi is small too but he's a beast 🤷‍♀️

Chloe Downey

i think historia sound really pretty 😭😭

Chloe Downey

finally getting some advancement of giants in season 3

pearl

I disagree. I imagine being smaller is such an advantage bc you can move easier with the ODM. Also Levi short af but ik there’s additional context.

pearl

Another solid 3 episodes…I still remember the first time I saw daddy Jaeger get eaten by Eren. The shock 😵‍💫

Artemipsyche

I can see the effort Cannon is putting in to not making noise while he snacks.

Niffol

Why do The Hunger Games references keep showing up in every video of y'all's😭 I wished none of you watched/remembered it so you could react to it later on. If any gek knows, how many of you have seen the series, and how many are oblivious?

Kim555

I can't wait for that specific goated PEAK arc that keeps getting closer and closer

Kim555

lmao I laughed hella hard when he said, "Spinal" good stuff

Branflakes

Typically human beings change clothes every day

Sean Carroll

I still wonder how someone as small as historia managed to make top 11. It doesn’t make any sense

Sean Carroll

I remember I paused 10 times when Eren was seeing all those memories

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

Flegels and Grishas watching the reaction as Bradlyn absolutely obliterates there names 0-0

M2GZ

Does eve and bradlyn switch fits every episode? 😭😭 i swear eve was wearing the full pink last week

Lorenzo Myazoe

"Torture the enemy, just for the hell of it Tell me to care, but I just can't"

kiiturii

I dont have any arguments to say so but I completely agree with u

Agustín Rojas

Love the lyrics as well. « Spilled guts and glory Gory as it gets, I am that story Can god-like power make me a better me? I just wanna see »

Jean Racaillou

Hot take but Historia is such a bad name and Christa is so much better.

pearl

Historia was top 11 in the 104th - Ymir sold to get her into the top 10. She showed that her by absolutely bodying Rod.

Pham Hung

nice mike tyson reference at 40mins brig, i lol'd
