Attack on Titan Episode #48 (311) Discussion


Recommended Posts

Showed up outside the walls, no memories but his name and doctor skills.

The scouts are proof of all that eh?  Maybe.

Wooo hot barmaid!

Are Grisha's doctor knowledge, skills, and abilities beyond what's inside the walls?  Or is he just a really good doctor?

Wow harsh.

"Special people do exist, this just means that I was never one of them."  Damn.  I'm not sure about that, but...

This must be related to AOT Junior High??

Well, I FINALLY watched the episode all the way through, and I feel it was rated a little too low by ANN:

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/attack-on-titan/episode-48/.137854

Rating: "B". Interestingly enough none of y'all nor this review even mentioned the most interesting plot point of the 2nd half of this episode, well, most interesting to me anyway: that Keith actually sabotaged Eren's chances of getting into the Scouts by snapping the clamp for his ODM gear himself, and only repaired it when it was discovered.

We previously only knew Keith as the hard-ass "drill sergeant" type back in Episode 3 of Season 1, so this backstory was welcome. I'd have gone with "A-", but that's just me.

Unfairly low to me. Rather, this ep seemed the most like Season 1 than any Season 3 episode thus far!

Agreed, I really enjoyed that ep and that was a cool detail

Apparently that image was used for a magazine cover. A goth Mikasa in there too, heh.

Why does Mikasa look like a Hot Topic threw up on her?

BURN DOWN HOT TOPIC~.

To be fair, Hot Topic used to have a lot of non-goth/emo stuff, like anime shirts and related paraphernalia.  I have no idea what it's like now.  Well, I do remember I almost bought a Brock Lesnar shirt from them a couple years ago, since WWE wasn't selling it themselves anymore.  The Suplex City Limits: Dallas one, not where I live, but Texas, so close enough!

For more Mikasa goodness before the new thread takes over tomorrow, I'll always love Mikasa kicking these guys' asses early in the season! :)

They had no idea what hit them until after it was done xD :D

Though Flegel Reeves of course later changes side and helps them out too after this.

Good stuff.  Also, I was surprised to find out that Kenny's squad were actual military.  I thought they were his own gang who got their hands on that gear.  I mean it was specialized for killing people, but criminals didn't make/modify it!  The government did!

Yeah, them being an actual official extra unit within the Military Police was a cool twist.
