series is trash
I usually always say read the manga. But this anime is a great adaptation, and the manga has some wonky-ass anatomy.
it's shonen trash, don't bother at all

Watch. The sequences are fucking incredible and very creative. The manga doesn't have that dynamism and rhythm.
>herofags
I'd say manga because the anime changes some things for the worse and watching the interesting artstyle evolve is pretty fun.
But the anime, despite having really shitty animation at some points, has the potential to hype you up beyond reason and a great ost so that's also nice.
>characters don't develop at all
>world building almost non-existent
>had a promising premise, throws away said premise in a few chapters
>ugly art and generic character designs
and most importantly
>asspulls over asspulls
As you can see, it's not worth it.
Rent free.
Watch the first 10 episodes in anime then go with the manga. Watch the most iconic action scenes in anime if you want. But stick with the manga otherwise you will miss out the vital character development scenes which are left out or straight up modified in the adaptation, for whatever reason. Some characters suffer greatly from it and you'll end up liking them less (manlet) or you'll have a warped perception
Read, optionally watch some action scenes and listen to the soundtrack.

This.
the first season was hilariously bad. are the new ones any better?
It only gets worse from there and devolves even more into generic shonenshit
Yeah, the anime does an excellent job presenting this mess, which is the first manga chapters, in a digestible form.
Watch then pick up the manga
Are you joking? From chapter 86 onwards SNK became a really great manga to follow.
if it needs 2/3 of its running time to get actually "good", it's never worth it to pick up

Do both, I read the manga, and then the anime reminds of kino shit from years prior, it's a fun mix.
Also the anime is really good atm, strong direction, good pacing and timing and so great voice acting
>bert and armin yelling across the city
shit was great.
My only issue is the episodes feel so short, i usually have to watch them twice or rewind some scenes.
Anime only here, just watch it, manga is boring and you have to wait a month.
The anime is 10/10 with it's action, and it has music, and immersive sound design.
Anime is a superior art form and manga is for unironic fucking nerds, cool people irl watch anime, fucking losers read manga
Watch 1st season. Damn I miss those THICK lines
the manga is unironically the best publishing shounen manga right now.
Anime is a almost perfect adaptation.
people on here hype up the manga as better, but believe me, im a HUGE mangafag and its clear the anime is the superior product here. Not only is isayamas artwork not that great for a lot of the manga, the anime is a great production, amazing animation, music, good direction. although once you are caught up read the manga, because it is an absolute fucking wild ride at the moment, easily the most exciting currently publishing manga.
>The anime is 10/10

If they just do what they always did, and term him into a cgi background and do dynamic camera shit + sakuga, then i'm more then happy.
I think user was implying manga in general which is even more fucking ironic.
does the manga have voice acting? does the manga have music? Is there animation?
no, you fucking nerd, even something like omp s2, which i admit looks pretty ugly, is still superior to the manga, even worse the manga comes out twice a year lmaoo
I prefer the manga because of that sheer amount of inner monologuing works way better when it's written. If you can overlook that, stick with the anime for the animation, OST, and acting.
Books must be terrible then, fucking brainlet.

What the fuck is this shit?
And I don't mean post-Shiganshina Marley Armong, I mean pre-timeskip adorable permissible femboy Armin.
Me too. He deserved it
That was actually one of the well animated scenes,what?
>unironically calling someone a pleb after stating a retarded thing such as "popular among normies=good"
I love the manga and that's why I can't wait for the Marley arc to be adapted so normies can fuck off after being pleb filtered
HORK HORK HORK
that's next episode maybe ? In the manga it's in the next chapter, the "perfect game" chapter
haven't you read the manga? that happens as soon as bert launches the first houses in the air. i hope they still adapt it in the next episode, but it should have been on today's one.
Christ, imagine being an anime only friend that is content in watching events which happened 4 years ago in the source material.
?
I figured Ymir at full power was something like a nigh-immortal, nearly inexhaustible, 120m+ Armored titan with the ability to shapeshift, auto-combust, create massive constructs and inject her powers into other members of her tribe.
Imagine having this much power.
>Create an army of thousands of Colossal armored titans with a single scream.
>Have each one of those carry a few dozen crystalized Eldians inside their stomach.
>Whenever you want to blow up a country. Have all of the colossal titans throw ten thousands of crystalized Eldians into that country. Have the thrown Eldians transform mid air into massive armored titans bombs.
>Watch their entire country being obliterated.
Living the dream.

Why does Armin pretend he's the guy who "just wants to talk everything out" when he tried pulling that shit while his team was running off to surround Bert and kill his friend? That's not how it's supposed to work, if he really wanted to talk it all over with Bert then he should have pulled everyone back where they could do no harm to anyone
This shot is fantastic, it shows the juxtaposition of the small animator that wants to make good anime with good animation and the greedy studios that just want cheap shit CGI to cut costs.
This user gets it.
Re-read the entire manga or some arcs. But you can also watch the anime if you want.
That's a pretty shit example. The crouch, the bit where he has his arm raised and is looking through the debris, or the bit where buildings are raining down looks way better
Armin a shit, no spoilers but at the end of the arc there is going to be a decision that is going to have to be made and best guy should have been the one to take the titan juice not Gayrmin
CT actually looks really good here.

You're saying that as if Armong was the one who asked to be revived. Shit on Manlet for making that decision, not on the kid who was fine literally killing himself and who also thought bringing him back over Erwin was a mistake.
What's with that Reiner plot armor bullshit?
Is that his special ability or every shifter can do that?

AAAHH SAVE ME ANNIE
Waiting a month for each chapter is away better than waiting +2 years for a new season
Even with the mediocre animation budget given to this episode Bert was a complete hype god. Literally the face of the franchise you were waiting for all those years ago.
Makes you wonder how much better the first 80 chapters would be if Godholdt was given proper character development early and got more battles to fight in, instead of being put on the sideline and get eaten shortly after him ascending from beta to Chadholdt.
Only to be replaced by an even shittier, irredeemable, cum slurping, pig-nosed, midget-sized, limp dick, faggy, retardray irradiating, weak wristed, ball gagging, globohomo (did i forget something?) indecisive cuck.
Isayama would have done literally nothing wrong if Bert was just eaten by Erwin, but oh nonono we get Island gooked out of that as well.
yeah I just needed to vent that out. All good.
They'll blur his face.
I think he woke up disoriented, like for a moment they didn't register as enemies

I'm pretty sure Isayama said that once in an interview.

>brah, you dont know shit about CGI
I know enough. It looks good because it's actually pretty, not ugly. Especially since it's seen from afar, the texture is basically downscaled.
>literally computer animation student project tier
Animation students can produce pretty things, is that supposed to be a compliment?
>the smoke is even the worst because you can get stock smoke effects that look better then that
I never said anything about the smoke. But you need a good computer to render good smoke effects. Anime animators work on toasters, not on servers or on high end gaming PCs. And there's even more work to do when it comes to blending the smoke with the rest of the environment, since said environment is 2D. Basically, you need time and resources to produce really good 3D CGI. If they really had that much time and resource, they would have stuck to 2D. Because japanese 2D animation actually is cheap.
Why do a lot of people seem to dislike her?
Is it all just because of MUH EREN or she does something stupid in the manga later?

The adaption is solid so it doesn't matter too much. At this point I'd probably recommend watching anime then reading manga if you like it.
You have no idea how happy it made me to see him go out like a little bitch.

Is there any character that can defeat Eren Yeager? And I'm not talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yeager. Hell, I'm not even talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yeager in contact with an Eldian of royal blood, so that he activates his Shiso no Kyojin coordinate powers. I'm NOT talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yeager after ingesting the Yoroi no Kyojin serum and having practiced his hardening abilities with Hange and the Survey Corps. I couldn't be talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yaeger using Porco Galliard as a nutcracker to destroy the Sentsui no Kyojin crystal so he can consume Ms. Tybur and gain precise creation abilities. I'm definitely not talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yaeger with mastery over his Sentsui no Kyojin creation abilities used to break open the Megata no Kyojin crystal and consuming Annie Leonhart in order to gain her titan abilities. I'm really not talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yeager commanding a group of loyal followers who have dedicated their lives to fulfilling Eren's dream of finally setting his people free and ensuring the safety of generations to come. Do you think I'm talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yeager after going fully nuclear and telling Mikasa he's hated her his entire life and beating the shit out of Armin because they're both just slaves who refuse to accept freedom and try to get in the way of his true, eternal freedom? You better be joking if you think I'm talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yeager after being ambushed by the surviving members of the Senshi-tai, effectively fighting off both Reiner and Porco at the same time and even taking on Reiner, solo, after eating two direct headshots from an anti-titan sniper rifle. I'm talking about Shingeki no Kyojin Eren Yeager in contact with Sieg's Kemono no Kyojin form, albeit rejecting Sieg's plan to force Eldians into sterility in order to protect his lover, Historia Reiss, so that his child can be born free into this world.

Same, Mikasa's character is just flat in overall.
This has to be some shitty fan translation.
It's part of her character, she is basically an automaton
I thought it was going to be something about the pregnant Mikasa theory. Disappointing.
Mikasa's eyes are grey in anime?
It's weird that she didn't start like that. In Trost arc she was actually shown from different angles (especially after losing Eren). Then something happened
Armin's CT looks retarded.
There's a good reason for that. It's her Ackerman blood. Overcoming that will be her greatest arc yet.
Nope but the anime already cut out a chunk of his characterization in season 3
Just like the holder.
classic
I still don't know quite what the artist was thinking when they conceptualized this.
bros...?
HOLY SHIT
I like it that way, it's more open to interpretation and initiates a deeper confrontation with the story since the reader has to really think about it and feel the characters to decipher the meaning of the text that's just as flawed as natural speaking would be in those tense situation.
Are the pair of you retarded? We know he has the WHT powers, he just used them, why is this surprising?
>Then something happened
Yeah, the author finally realized he's gay and stopped caring about female characters.
EPIC
>Then something happened
Yeah, Eren got back to life and the status quo for her character again. Hope to see how this last arc will handle her.
You don't get it. Those marks signify that Eren isn't actually inside the Attack Titan but is actually underground while controlling it.
She's still alive, right?
>It's her Ackerman blood. Overcoming that will be her greatest arc yet.
Hopefully, I still want to see those Hizuru dogs doing something.
Absolutely and completely unexploded!
I believe it's actually the reverse, the marks on the WHT signified that the titan itself was remotely controlled from the outside.

>Imagine if her glasses broke
How horrifying..
Until you find out it made sense all along 40 chapters later. It's a bluff, he needs them to hate him right now
9-10 chapters left
Why not? You stupid faggot
Her memories are skewed from it and you can see her reactions every time Eren gets harmed, even the headaches fit perfectly.,
Seems like you're the retard.
that makes sense though and has been prevalent throughout the series
snk has far more retarded things than this
It's not a bluff and he doesn't need them to hate him, he needs them to break those bonds.

I think Bert was just a sociopath in the end.
Holy based
I see that a lot of people didn't understand why reiner survived. Let's me explain:
Titan shifters are able to recover,activate the powers and give the powers(if eaten by another titan) thx the spine(mostly the spinal fluid, later in the anime you will understand why it so important).
So the spine is their true weakpoint and the core of their powers, so even if you separate the brain from the spine or literally blow up the brain,since the spinal fluid take all the information from the brain and shares them entire the body, they can survive sharing their subcontious in the spine and waiting for the regeneration.
This move is actually possible not only for reiner, but literally all the titan shifters ca do that( even if this move is considered a "last hope").
The only ways to kill a titan shifter are 3: blow completly up the entire body,destroy this spine and brain at the same time or weakeded him so much until he can't regenerate anymore and than kill him as a regular human.
This rule is literally the main ability of a shifter outside the titan power,and since this rule didn't got contraddicted, this can't be considered an asspull
>tfw no crippled anorexic gf
honestly if you can’t relate to this you need to go back
Praying the season ends with best girl revealing her human form like last season ended with Zeke.
At what point between the Reiner and Berthold reveal and the shiganshina battle did the collosal titan transformation change from creating strong winds and heat to being a literal nuclear blast?

That probably had something to do with the Colossal, it would make sense if the first Colossal Titan user did the same as Karl and put a "lock" on the titan that keeps the user docile since this titan has a high destructive power.
Same shit could go to the Attack with it's freedom boner, Armored's suicide thoughts and Beast's sudden cruelty.
sex with Piku
Bert confirmed for /ourguy/.
how did eren see porco coming or where reiners mouth is?
>crimson chins
You know, I never thought about this before, but when did SnK start getting popular? What chapters did it start exploding?
The chins are big and pointy for like everyone early on, Isayama had no grasp on their faces
It's a cartoon reference
It will probably end with Eren's declaration of war against Marley at the shores of Paradis, or at the end of Fort Slava battle at best.
with the anime
1st episode was very impactful it's what got me into the series
The anime, are you new or something? It was the anime and the fact that the manga was close to the RB reveal
It won't go past the ocean. There's no point in ending the season part way into the perspective shift.
Well, completely messing up the subjects/objects of the sentences to the point of changing their meaning is a pretty bad blunder and should've been fixed.
Bert actually says:
>I wanted to make sure.
>I thought that as soon as you guys showed up...
>...I might start whining...
>...And begging for forgiveness again.
>But...
>It looks like I'm fine now.
>Yeah
>You're all cherished friends, and I'm seriously trying to kill you.
Same. Eren and Carla screaming at each other really got me.
That's why I think it will end with Eren's declaration of war, while leaving Fort Slava battle to season 4.
You don't honestly think he's not in the attack titan, right?
Stop being a contrarian.
But it must have gotten big enough to get a 25 episode run in the first place. They don't just give that shit out to every manga that comes along.
Seriously though anyone thinking the early art is better is delusional, the current style is a lot more clean and consistent, Isayama has a comfort zone with how to draw his characters now and the art maintains the sketchy sense of erratic-ness when it needs to, the art still feels unique and soul-filled and I'm suprisied it actually hasn't been degrading at any point just seeing Isayama's been doing this Manga close to 10 years now every month, finishing before deadline, without breaks.
Bait.
it's just raw battle senses
Watch the first two seasons and read the rest.
Crimson CLOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUD
AoT is Gantz for kiddies
>tfw just assumed this was right when i read it
>thought the anime messed up the translation
Gantz is Gantz for kiddies
Not that user but the "declaration of war against Marley" thing probably made it confusing since it's usually just referred to as the ocean scene (plus I'm not sure it really fits when it wasn't even a declaration of war per se much less against Marley specifically since the whole world is framed as the enemy).
Isayama got way better now, to the point that I worried for the anime not being able to capture the kino panels with the same precision. Some panels are almost a art piece, like Eren's rage while ripping Reiner's head off in the last chapter.
Reiner gets stabbed in the throat
>oh my consciousness paths
Reiner gets his head blown off
>oh my consciousness paths
But the overall culmination of the point is the same, right? Valued comrades are out for each others blood
>had a promising premise, throws away said premise in a few chapters
What are you spouting? Ever hear of deconstruction/subversion?
youtube.com
As expected of Piku-chan. Choose your flavor variety
YOU CANNOT KILL MEEEEE!!
Yeah, but I personnaly call it "declaration of war" because Eren actually thinks to kill everyone outside of Paradis.
Yep, that is just about the exact opposite of the way I wanted her voice to sound like.
With the pacing being 2 chapters per episode, shouldn't the ocean be in episode 9?
Ever hear of BUILD UP buddy?
Thanks, I hate it
>But stick with the manga otherwise you will miss out the vital character development scenes
stop lying, the only season that changes stuff is the first part of the third season and the changes they did didn't affect the characters at all
It'll probably slow down with the flashbacks since it's not just action sequences.
Just another cop out, Surprised people aren't fed up with it but maybe it's sunk cost fallacy.
O
It was the #11 best selling manga in 2011, about 3.5 million copies sold so about 70% of its current yearly sales (by amount of total volumes sold, so not counting digital) and about 25% of its peak yearly sales (the peak being in 2013). I can't find any info on the sales in previous years.
Not really, there are people who actually hold this opinion, like they turn their brain off during consumption of SnK and don't bother giving it proper fair analysis, I've gone over the series with heavy scrutiny plenty of times and it's not perfect but it's far far far from bad, outside of maybe a few questionable writing decisions Isayama's seriously been planning this shit out since early on, the story is intricately written, packed to hell and back with foreshadowing and while there are some bland or unremarkable characters I think his character writing is great when he actually focuses on certain characters, even characters like Kruger and Willy despite their short amount of screentime end up beloved and interesting. I'd defend the series in the thread but nobody ever fuckin listens anyway so eh it's futile.
>"Build up"? I'AM THE BUILD UP
THAT'S A PENIS
You got the comment completely backwards, he clearly said the manga had the character development.
>the only season that changes stuff is the first part of the third season
Ahh yes, I remember when Eren burst into flames and his teeth turned sharper than Porco's during his fight with Annie.

On this particular page? Not really. The focus was on Bert coming to terms with his own feelings and the idea that killing his former comrades was inevitable.

Not on that particular page, in the sum whole.
dissatisfied with Ymir's work?
Hell the premise people thought it had was never the actual premise, ever since Bert and Reiner fucked up Shiganshina it's been about human conflict and war, Pixis literally outright says this early on, the series slowly became truly about human conflict from the beginning, Bert/Reiner really should have informed people there was an outside anyway and that the wall folk weren't "humanity".
A flaccid one you may add.

Why would a little girl know what a dick looks like? Wtf Isayama
People are just butmad as fuck still Reiner lived, they never bitched about Annie's constant avoiding of capture through surprise powers, enemies aren't gonna reveal their fucking cards to the enemy even if it seems like a questionable writing decision, God people act like the consciousness transfer thing really drags the whole experience down and it's so annoying.
Isayama is a EHfag and half of EH is Eren, Erenfags are pedos, thus Isayama is a pedo and draws kids doing things with dicks
>and the changes they did didn't affect the characters at all
Kek, they completely toned down Manlet, reduced Hange's role and fucked up the build up to the Reiss cave episodes and Historia's development by leaving out shit like the entirety of chapter 51, Manlet manhandling her etc.
The warriors even know about it. Bert is surprised Reiner was pushed that far. It wasn't an unknown power he just shat out.
what's your best and worst ending?
my best ending is eren rumbling the world ending the manga as it started with humanity outside paradis extinct, worst ending is marley winning at least with zeke plan the eldians will eventually die off and they will not suffer anymore but if marley won the world will keep oppressing eldians because they're not human and they will never be
I know lots of anons will hate on me for saying this but coming from an og poster the anime is better. At least take the time to color that shit in like comic book artists in every other country do. I don't want to keep flip through a bunch of black and white pencil doodles.
She died as a woman and had daughters if I remember correctly. Now why she remains a child, maybe is because she gained her powers at that age.

The Reiss cave was just shit animation just like the recent Reiner vs Eren fight i agree with that and the Historia changes i can understand but i still dont't think it makes her character worse.

Did everyone forget about Erwin himself REJECTING the Serum?!
Yeah, it makes enough sense with preestablished knowledge too, if going titan can make you lose control like Eren in trost or just controlling a titan in general is a thing then the titan body itself is sure to have its own nervous system and brain that a shifter must learn to connect with and control, why wouldn't transferring your consciousness make sense when all this knowledge + PATHS is on the table?, the warriors are all highly experienced shifters so them being so connected to their titans to the point something like consciousness transfer is possible should be seen as depth to a powergap between them and Eren, not an asspull because people lack decent analytical skills of the logic of a story and imagination.

Fan-made colorings have more quality than official ones would have anyways, since it's a few people coloring pages they're passionate about rather than a team doing a whole manga they may not care about
It doesn't change the fact that a hitherto unknown ability doesn't equate to an asspull if it exists in canon beyond our immediate knowledge.

The manga has poor art, at least in the beginning. The anime has (mostly) good animation and great music. It also improves some of the manga's bad decisions, for example the Trost arc is much better in the anime because you get to know the characters beforehand unlike in the manga where the training arc only comes after Trost

Yeah, SnK has some really cool hindsight-related stuff. To me the best part was hearing Zeke saying "lets end this" sounding almost sad. It has a whole different meaning if you know his true goal

Since you're in Yea Forums, read. Unless you love getting buttfucked with spoilers.
If you're suggesting it for someone else that never visits Yea Forums or youtube, then tell them to watch it first. It's more fun to be a naive anime-only that reads the manga later, instead of a cynical mangafaggot that bitches about every little thing. We get it, no anime will ever satisfy you, don't bother watching it then. And stop telling us about it, no one asked.
The only character that sounded remotely different was Tama from Fuuka; the rest sounded pretty much the same.

>Armin is intersexual.
>Historia had an affair with an undisclosed SL soldier close to Eren. They blame the farmer to avoid troubles. In case that Historia's alibi is questioned, Eren will step up and claim to be the real father. Eren and Historia are actually besties.

I cannot stand the warriors, I have never gotten this angry at fictional characters before but I hope every single last one of the warriors dies a slow and painful death.
I hope Reiner's last thoughts are finding out that Eren impregnated Historia.
I know some of you here support them and I hate you for being such edgy contrarian faggots for wanting these killers to win. And don't try to say Eren is a killer like them because he is only doing what he does because his home was genocided, he had to watch his mother eaten alive, all because the warriors. He just wanted to live a peaceful and free life.

I just feel bad for the Eldians of Paradis. I want them to get revenge for what Marley and the warriors did to them. What Reiner, Bert, and Annie did was pure evil and I want Eren to extract revenge and free all of his people. I hate how slimy they were and pretended to be friends with them while wanting to kill them at the same time. They are brainwashed bootlickers that have the power to revolt against Marley but are too cowardly to do it.

Cringe.
So i think episode 4 might end on this panel as a cliffhanger.
I did some digging, and episode 3 covered chapter 77 and 78 completely, and then added 12 pages from 79.
So episode 4 should easily finish the remaining 32 pages of chapter 79, then cover the entirety of chapter 80 (which ended with a rock hitting Erwins torso) and even go a bit into chapter 81 which has pic related in it, which is on page 17.
>So i think episode 4 might end on this panel as a cliffhanger.

>end with an artillery shell hitting Eren
What?
Yes with Za warudo and everything
Damn this episode was kino.
I think user just wants a headcanon to say that Eren fought during the war and didn't just cut off his own leg and infiltrate Marley.
Okay to all these posters claiming that Mikasa has had no development, did you forget about her flashback in the Trost Arc, chapter 50, the Ackerman revelation, the night to retake Wall Maria, letting Eren and Armin handle Bert, the whole OVA about her where she imagines a what-if scenario with that mirror mask, her whole Hizuru heritage which was FORSHADOWED IN THE FIRST FREAKING ARC IN HER FLASHBACK.
It’s the anime’s fault that people think this bs, the anime flanderizes her and cut out panels from the manga showing more details on her, such as in S3E11 where she tells Eren “his soup is cold”, in the manga it clearly shows that it’s because she doesn’t want Eren to keep talking about eating his father Grisha, whom was a surrogate parent to Mikasa, a flashback panel with her and Grisha is shown, this was cut from the anime.
He secured himself a qt nip wife
Mikasa is boring because despite all the setup you mention, her character has still not gone anywhere.
1:39 will be her voice
yes xd
Yeah definitely.
Those over the top high pitched voices dont fit Pieck at all, she has to talk deeper.
>snk has far more retarded things than this
Like what? Nothing in SNK is “retarded”.
This is the most idiotic theory I EVER heard here and that says a lot.
First of all, you can't politely ask an artillery shell to give you the trauma of your choosing. It has a very big chance to literally tear a human to small pieces.
Second, what if Eren would have get unconscious after the presumed blast and started to regenerate on the battlefield? That would be REALLY unconvenient.
Third, it's a hundred times easier to infiltrate a guy as a wounded soldier with an amnesia than to put him in a fighting regiment which would involve forging documents, creating/learning a perfect legend etc.
Not that user, but Eren was at Fort Slava when the fighting ceased. That shit had to be literally on the other side of Marley's Continent from where Paradis is, how would he get there? Had to be when Marley's military began their campaign against the MEU. In that case, Eren probably had to fight, unless he was a rear-echelon kind of guy.
This.
No.
The SL had a base in Marley, we've been over this before. They probably had some idea of what was going on in the war and Eren slipped in after the fighting ceased.
He was infiltrated there after the battle by some Yelena's associates in the army. If he has spent many months fighting, he would never put his armband on the wrong arm.
Don't forget that Eren and the SL guys ALREADY were in Marley for some time.
Bert suddenly being able to trigger a nuke fire transformation in RtS even though this never happened when he transformed in the 3 instances before is kinda retarded user
>845 Bert transforms, no explosion, then kicks down the wall
>850 Bert transforms, Eren and co. standing on the wall, no explosion at all, no one gets blasted off the wall from his transformation, no smoke, nothing
>chapter 42, Bert AND Reiner transform on top of the wall, there is a small shockwave that sends the characters flying for a few meters, no real explosion, no fire
>RtS arc Bert transforms, absolute nuke, fire everywhere
bruh
WAKE ME UP INSIDE
AIR COMPRESSION. The first two were right up against the wall so the wall took the brunt of the force.
>titan transformation change from creating strong winds and heat to being a literal nuclear blast?
The previous times he held back when transforming, also in S2 when he surprise attacked Eren and dissolved it caused a big explosion.
I assumed it had to do with the impact of him hitting the ground while expelling his heat wave. He wasn't specifically trying to cause an explosion the other times
Yeah, I suppose it went like that:
>Eren, SL and Yelena with Obamachmon and other volunteers setting up a base in Marley
>Yelena learns from her sources in the army when the final assault on Fort Slava will be commited
>She gives Eren a go
Eren would've been found ten times over if that was the case.
>If he has spent many months fighting, he would never put his armband on the wrong arm
He did that on purpose. He was targeting the Warriors cadets and found Falco to help him. Eren might be a 3/10 but even he can tell the difference between left and right.
>tfw no doujin of Annie getting worked like that description
>850 Bert transforms, Eren and co. standing on the wall, no explosion at all, no one gets blasted off the wall from his transformation, no smoke, nothing
sorry i got this wrong, the heatwave DID send them flying
I don't think you know what 'development' means.
Why would he want to nuke Reiner the first three times? It’s a power the Colossal has so he can probably decide how much damage the transformation does.
I want to have gentle anal sex with Mikasa. Is that okay?
>Pii wet herself at that moment
Annie a shit
Lol no, it was the first time he put the armband on. Also Isayama wanted us to notice it from the beginning to give a hint this is Eren.
i thought berts titan cg actually looked cool, you fags cant enjoy anything
As long as you're sober, it's okay Jean
>flashback in the Trost Arc
This was probably the best scene she had. This was near the beginning of the series (chapter 5/6)
>chapter 50
Please elaborate. She didn't do too much other than give up and accept her dying with Eren.
>Ackerman revelation
How is this development she's received until now? Breaking it will be something in the future, but for now it's been nothing. Even Manlet has had more with this; it's not development though.
>the night to retake Wall Maria
She mainly had Eren and Armin talking it out, but I guess it was nice to see her be vulnerable and want to go back to good old days
>letting Eren and Armin handle Bert
I'm legitimately curious how this is development. She followed orders, but Jean and Armin were more proactive during this time.
>the whole OVA
Not canon. Why would you even bring this up.
>Hizuru heritage
Stop screaming. This has been again been brought up in the recent chapters, but have played no role until now. Her most stand out line is saying she wants to stay with her people
>she tells Eren “his soup is cold”
Even with the anime you can tell she said that because she's worried about him.
A combination of and For a titan like Bertholt there most be some degree of control of how much damage one can produce. And even more probably the more "explosive" the transformation, the more it drains the user.
This is why you should re-read SnK chapters.
Armin mentions them 'lying low in Marley' first, but we learn that SL was going to create a base here only later in the chapter.
The absolute biggest plothole and inconsistency is this scene right here. It makes absolutely no sense in hindsight and we have never seen this happening again.
The colossal titans ENTIRE FUCKING BODY just vanishing in an instant. There just is no way that this is physically possible within the in-universe rules. Berthold couldnt have consumed the entire mass of a 60 meter titan IN AN INSTANT just like that without burning Eren to a crisp like he did with Armin.
Pretty sure Isayama originally planned for titan shifters to be able to literally magically transform back and forth from human to titan and back, without having the shifter to physically leave the titan body behind like it is the case since Eren first transformed.
But then Isayama changed his mind. Even in the flashback chapter of Berthold kicking down wall Maria, we see that the colossal titan body did not vanish, but it just collapsed on its knees and Berthold existed it.
I find it really weird how no one is ever talking about this. Literally no one has ever brought this up.

Oh, and the scene with everybody reading Eren's letter while wearing CIVILIAN clothes was even before that, in Ch. 106.
I've noticed the author isn't very great at drawing people, I guess that's why his titan designs look so eerie.
Only upside to reading the manga is not having to wait on any long-ass hiatus. I doubt they'll take a 4 year break ever again, but you never know.

That was amazing.
Watch it, the anime is alright but the story in the manga is completely retarded.
Very arbitrary characters and mary sues on overdrive, but you wont see any of this in the show which is actually done really well.
Just do yourself a favor and dont read on what happens later.
Oh and I hope you dont mind a protagonist thats a little bitch for 3 seasons.
To be fair to that user and the readers we really need more Marley flashbacks.
We still have no idea how Eren and the Survey Corps infiltrated Marley. Because we have the current battle, manlet and unresolved Historia plot I doubt we will see the flashbacks this year.
I also really really want to see a brief explanation of other countries, if there’s a UN and what the power dynamics are of geopolitics but I doubt we get that. It makes no sense to me that the ENTIRE world would attack Paradis, a weak little island (but with nukes) instead of Marley the new big Titan Great Power.
Bert used the gas attack here and evaporated his titan faster than normal
How the fuck did you read 27 volumes in 2 days
...
???
I'm 99% sure Bert can choose whether he wants to nuke something or not.
All of the other times he was near the wall. Nuking the wall would have released the Wall Titans for sure (Bert and Co. only destroyed the Wall gate, nothing more). If you're an anime-only, you'll find out why releasing the Wall Titans is bad for Bert and co (or at least why they think so).
'He forgot' or 'He didn't pay attention' makes way more sense than 'He expected an asshole guard to make a practical joke on wounded soldiers and a specific Cadet boy to be there in the exact moment to help him'.
I know right. Dropped it arround 2015 Uprising and picked it back up in late 2016 and have been enjoying these chapters and threads ever since.
I started after chapter 50. At uprising because i was told a lot was cut out.
He was never a bitch and only cried when there was a good reason like his fucking mom dying. Whatever you think of him during s1-s3 doesn’t matter. He’s a complete Chad now.
I presume Marley being something like a British Empire at the beginning of XIXth centure. The only real superpower with a few close adversaries like Germany and Russia, but already showing signs of waning.
Eren is de vader.
Even if he could do that, it would have killed Eren.
When he was slowly burning himself up on top of the wall in the Clash of the Titans arc, he was burning for at least a few minutes before only his bones were left.
And when he burned Armin to a crisp, i would say that also lasted for at least 1 minute.
There just is no way that you can instantly burn something, not even fucking LAVA can burn a human body in an instant, that still takes minutes.
>XIXth centure
*XXth century
New thread when?
Alright, good choice. Glad you enjoyed it so far. At which chapter are you currently?
What plotpoints did you predict while reading?
It's titan magic, just roll with it
Isayama forgot
Already up
>He expected an asshole guard to make a practical joke on wounded soldiers and a specific Cadet boy to be there in the exact moment to help him
I didn't say that, but I think he was looking for someone that would pity him and help him out. He needed Falco for his plan since his letter had to be sent from a postbox outside of the internment zone.
It's a high risk/low reward gamble. A political officer or whoever Marley uses in that role could've noticed him instead.
please explain
I see that a lot of people didn't understand why reiner survived. Let's me explain:
Titan shifters are able to recover,activate the powers and give the powers(if eaten by another titan) thx the spine(mostly the spinal fluid, later in the anime you will understand why it so important).
So the spine is their true weakpoint and the core of their powers, so even if you separate the brain from the spine or literally blow up the brain,since the spinal fluid take all the information from the brain and shares them entire the body, they can survive sharing their subcontious in the spine and waiting for the regeneration.
This move is actually possible not only for reiner, but literally all the titan shifters ca do that( even if this move is considered a "last hope").
The only ways to kill a titan shifter are 3: blow completly up the entire body,destroy this spine and brain at the same time or weakeded him so much until he can't regenerate anymore and than kill him as a regular human.
This rule is literally the main ability of a shifter outside the titan power,and since this rule didn't got contraddicted, this can't be considered an asspull
did you miss the O MY RUBBER PATHS last chapter?
So? He was feigning psychological trauma as well which excuses his improper armband use. They clearly didnt care either way.
>outside of maybe a few questionable writing decisions
Like what? Please elaborate so we can see wether or not it can be torn apart.
No.
