Spoilers for future events and I'm a little hopped up on cold medicine so not all of this may make sense.




EXCELLENT QUESTION, EREN.



I really loved that the anime showed the causalities that happened in this city a lot better than the manga did. While it was made pretty clear that Erwin was willing to sacrifice a ton of soldiers on the Female Titan Capture Expedition, it's a lot more clear here that the civilians and soldiers of this city was also a sacrifice he was willing to make (by even pulling this plan in such a populated area).


:(((((




Awwww. ;;;;;;;;;;;;


JESUS CHRIST ANNIE SMASHING EREN'S HEAD.


LMAO I LOVE EREN'S RAGE SMILEY FACE.


HOLY SHIT EREN IS ON FIRE. Lmao. I wrote it off as just SOMETHING COOL LOOKING but thinking about it, I guess it could be connected to how hot the shifters get and the steam stuff and how quickly Eren was regenerating in this particular situation. :D


GOD. FINGER RELATED VIOLENCE ALWAYS MAKES ME CRINGE.



:(((((((((


LMAO HE PUNCHED HIS OWN ARM OFF. ♥♥♥♥


;;;;;;;;;;;;;;


OOOOOH. I really liked this bit A LOT. The whole crystallization thing showed the basis of how the walls could have been made but this whole fusion thing added on to that by showing how you could connect a bunch of titans into walls.



OMG LEVI. LMAO THIS PURE FANSERVICE SHOT. ♥♥♥♥


Awww I'm a little disappointed that the anime switched out Armin for Mikasa in this scene because that scene is what I would consider, from just the visuals, the most romantic page in the story lmao:




OH MY GOD THIS LITTLE STORY. I LOVE IT. CREEPY SHIT. I WISH MORE EYECATCHES WOULD DO STORYTIME. And I guess this story is what would get the anime-only audience thinking about the last shot of the episode. HOPEFULLY.


Awww by changing the wall reveal, a bunch of this scene couldn't happen INCLUDING JEAN RUFFLING ARMIN'S HAIR:

AND ARMIN BEING DEPRESSINGLY CREEPY.


MIKASA. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;



Awww this scene. ♥


OMGGGGG I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE UTGARD ANIMATED. ♥♥♥


JESUS CHRIST THIS REVEAL. I didn't really like the way this was revealed because LMAO I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE ANIME-ONLY PEOPLE WOULD THINK ABOUT IT. And I miss all the reactions of the everyone (the characters). But I guess the second season will probably do their own version of the reveal, which would be a pretty good season opener, so it's alright I guess. I WANT MORE.

OVERALL: I was REALLY excited about this adaptation since I love the source material AND I LOVED IT. I generally liked all the changes and additions AND I ADORED THE MUSIC, VOICE ACTION, ATMOSPHERE, ACTION, JUST LIKE EVERYTHING. I REALLY REALLY WANT MORE UGGGGGGH. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
