DangerMouse Posted July 11, 2021 Author Posted July 11, 2021 Azumabito bringing up this dumb plan got Eren thinking about using the Rumbling in the first place. Great job... 1
AnimationFan14 Posted July 11, 2021 Posted July 11, 2021 This is the one time you bet on the wrong horse.
ben0119 Posted July 11, 2021 Posted July 11, 2021 Eren you asshole. Hange LOL "hands off you pervert." 1
DangerMouse Posted July 11, 2021 Author Posted July 11, 2021 Hange not having any alternative ideas, looks like that's locked in Eren. 1

It does feel kind of disjointed in some spots though. The change in direction is a little jarring. 3

"You should recommend this one" *Dramatic music increases* When we first watched this episode live on Toonami, I never would have suspect the wine would have been this important. It's so easy to see the director focusing on it now though. 1
DangerMouse Posted July 11, 2021 Author Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) Hizuru helping but turning them down in terms of actually being an active ally and they've been unsuccessful at gaining any others it seems, Eren's stuck. Even if they continue to do nothing the nations would have still declared war after Willy's speech, since they were already cheering Willy's declaration even before Eren burst through that building.

Yeah. Looks like they unsuccessfully tried to find other options during all this time before the raid but didn't manage to make any allied countries and even Hizuru despite being willing to help is unwilling to actually openly side and fight with them.

DangerMouse Posted July 11, 2021 Author Posted July 11, 2021 And then Sasha would be dead when they attack the island anyway...

Yes definitely this. And as a result the characters somehow feel less familiar, but that kind of works in a way too. 2
DangerMouse Posted July 11, 2021 Author Posted July 11, 2021 More wine. And Zeke just sitting there biding his time. 2

It might work well if that less familiar feeling is what the creators were originally going for. Like these flashback moments in these episodes feel like they could have been a whole season by itself. However showing these flashbacks after we already know how everything turns out in the present creates it's own kind of tension and intrigue of how everything could go so wrong. I am really enjoying this season but I do have different opinions on it at the same time. 1

I am really enjoying this season but I do have different opinions on it at the same time. Yeah, exactly, I've got mixed feelings on what my preference might have been on a few things (and probably how they're seemingly using Eren) but I'm really enjoying the complexity of the season and it definitely added another different layer of tension to replace a lot of the mystery tension we lost having learned the truths of the world. 2

ben0119 Posted July 11, 2021 Posted July 11, 2021 Man, Clifford Chapin's (Conny) voice sounds very similar to Dallas Reid's. 1

How do you not give her a showpiece fight, lol? Yeah Tsunade was disappointing there. But all the Kages were. I think the goal was to make Madara look more badass, but it just made the Kages look shitty lol. 1

Maybe I should go check that scene out again. If there is a part where Clifford Chapin has to raise his voice as Conny, it will definitely make it sound like Dallas Reid's Asta, haha. Although it was funny hearing Dallas Reid as a calm collected character on My Hero Academia. Edited July 11, 2021 by ben0119 1
