I think you might really enjoy this one, at least I hope so. :D
yeah, I think I was done by that point already mentally and exhausted :D I did not even realize Armin melting until far too late I feel :D

I did want to add a comment to commemorate SWS' missing of the many red flags for Armin in this episode. I remember when watching this when Armin says "If this works I won't be able to look at the sea" I was like "OH F...."

the whole point was to draw Zeke's attention fully away from Levi, who was working his way around to attack. It worked like a charm

making viewers fully empathize with a character the very moment they are dying is an immense storytelling achievement
and they just pull it off twice in one episode to wonderful effect
was the highest rated episode of any series on imdb for a while

great charge
amazing speach
deep impact on the meaning of the show
deep emotional impact the one survivor and few surviving wittnesses
zero strategic impact
10/10

And now imagine having to wait 1 week for every single episode and multiple years between seasons. With this kind of cliffhangers, it is brutal

This second part had a significant delay before it was released, and a big part of it I've heard was the time it took to animate this sequence of Levi vs Beast. It's one of many sequences in anime where I feel like stepping through it frame by frame is worth your time. The physics of the scene are nonsense, but the momentum and storytelling of the animation are top tier.

Watching your reaction a second time it really hit me when you're talking about how Levi learned from Annie, how unprepared Zeke really was for dealing with this type of fighting. (Though who could be prepared for Levi π) Annie, Bert and Reiner, by training with everyone, they had a chance to think about how to protect themselves from this style of attack. It's only now when Reiner and Bert have been away and unable to see how much they've advanced their weapons that they don't know how to counter.

You actually can stop on this season and don't watch season 4, if you don't want emotional rollercoaster like here π

"It's 2AM, what am I going to do, stop now?!" < -- I can only sympathize too much with this one.

Fun fact, the titans who comically turn towards Levi when Zeke screams are modeled after Eren and Mikasas voice actors. Likewise, the first one Levi kills on his way to Zeke in the last episode is Armins voice actress.
