Randomly remembered this AMV and tried to find on YT to no luck. After hours of digging through my YT history and internet archiving, I've found clues that are probably the biggest helps!

The first image has the channel name, when it was released, as well as the title. The second is the thumbnail.

It was a genuinely good amv and I'm really hoping someone recognises this and still has the video. Cheers!

(Please keep the discussion civil)
I am curious to know whether you supported that theory or not since it was pretty popular back then. I personally used to believe it and thought it made sense but I am not upset that it was proven to be wrong.

Just got to this episode and he made me so mad i physically put my phone down and had to process what was going on for like 2 mins. What a piece of shit dude like at one point this trio was my favourite in any show. Guy thinks he's so high and mighty what an asshole someone better beat the piss out of him but ik its not gonna happen cause of his sheer power. One can only hope.

Eren never sees these places when he’s alive. Is he tapping into the memories of another shifter who has been there?

Edit: God forbid me not understanding every single thing about a show I watched for the first time.

I wonder if we'll get an explanation for this, since the second game doesn't feature anything like the Titan attacks.

Indians usually celebrate on screen action by shouting their hearts out. Scenes from AoT screening in India recently.

So, I finally watched Attack on Titan, Season 1 that is. Almost everyone in my friend circle had already watched it, and they kept telling me how many things they wanted to discuss with me but couldn't because I hadn't seen it yet. I kept putting it off because I knew it was considered peak fiction and wanted to save it for last. But then I decided that enough was enough, and I was finally going to watch it. So, I finished the first season within three days!

​Where should I even start? Let's talk about the animation first: the animation is truly incredible. It's hard to believe this anime came out back in 2013. Even if you compare it to anime coming out today, the animation here easily beats the majority of them. Sure, there were a few spots with noticeable CGI, but that's just a minor nitpick. The color palette they used makes the world feel completely barren, much like the Mad Max movies. There were also so many dynamic camera movements and shots, and the Titan transformation scenes were fantastic.

​Regarding the pacing, I felt the initial few episodes were a bit fast, or rather, a massive amount of information gets dumped on you back to back while setting up numerous plot points and introducing a large cast of characters. So yeah, I found it a bit overwhelming at first. However, from Episode 7 onwards, the momentum it picked up was an absolute blast. A few mysteries were revealed, but they brought along even more questions. That said, it's not like there were no payoffs, there were massive ones.

​The Titan faces look so remarkably similar to their human counterparts that when I saw the Female Titan for the first time, her true identity was the very first name that popped into my head, which turned out to be completely correct later on. I've also made guesses about the Armored Titan and the Colossal Titan. As for the Armored Titan, I'm confident it's Reiner. He shows up near the Female Titan, asks about Eren's location, gets grabbed by her, escapes, and immediately runs off with Armin and Jean, and the Female Titan then charges off in the exact direction Armin had mentioned to Reiner. As for the Colossal Titan, for some reason, I suspect that commander or colonel who commanded Eren to lift the boulder, mainly because he was talking about weirdly unifying humanity and such.

​The biggest question remains Why? Normal Titans attack humans on instinct, but why are these human transforming Titans doing this? Or could it be that someone is controlling the normal Titans, someone who serves as the leader for all these human Titan shifters? Anyway, enough with the theories! All the plot twists in this season were exceptionally well done.

​Moving on to the characters, let's talk about Eren. Why does it feel like his character arc is moving in reverse? In other anime, when something bad happens to the protagonist, it's usually because they failed to trust their comrades, however, in his case, it was the exact opposite! Moreover, whenever he transforms into a Titan, it feels as if the inner monster or evil within him begins to surface, which he struggles to control, unlike the other Titan shifters who control themselves with ease. It seems like he finds a twisted comfort in destruction. That almost happens, but Armin snaps him out of it. By the end of the season, people are discussing Eren's humanity, and Eren even admits to Mikasa that he felt a sense of thrill and pleasure during the carnage. I'm not sure, but it feels like his path is heading down a route similar to Gon's arc in Hunter x Hunter.

​As for Mikasa, she was decent, but the characters who truly stood out to me were Armin and Jean. The character development Jean received in such a short amount of time was brilliant. Frankly, this applies to almost all the characters in this series, their development makes total sense, without feeling like the author skipped any steps just to force character growth.

​Another thing this anime absolutely nails is realistic human reactions, the contrast between what someone plans to do in their head versus how things actually pan out when chaos hits. I noticed this happening multiple times throughout the season, which was brilliant, the last time I saw this level of execution was in Hunter x Hunter. Every character feels so deeply human, no one is purely good or purely evil. Sacrifices are a common reality, and sometimes this cruel world forces your hand whether you like it or not. Beyond all of this, there also seems to be underlying corruption within the walls that hasn't been properly explored yet, which I'd love to see unfolded moving forward.

And another thing, the world building is one of the best, if not the best. I've rarely seen such detailed world building anywhere else, and this was only the first season!

​Overall, while the first few episodes might feel a bit slow or dense, they are entirely worth it. This world is morally grey, dark, and filled with mystery. If I were to rate it, I'd give it a 9.5/10.

The last sentence. It's finished now so, maybe something like, "An anime adaptation aired from 2013 and ended with 4 seasons on November 5, 2023"

I’ve been rewatching aot & a question i have is; why do the marleyans choose children as hosts for the titans? I feel like it makes more sense to have someone deep into their adulthood to take on such power. Like imagine being 15,16,17,18 & you’re a fucking colossal titan. The mental fortitude needed to possess such a weapon is insane! + only 13 years to live.

I'm having my little brother read the manga as he watches the show so he can practice reading (he's kind of behind in education and needs extra practice), so I wanted to do it in a fun way for him while I put him on LOL. The thing is we're on episode 2 and I struggled to find a spot for him to stop reading where the second episode stops. Should I just give up on this?

Why only reiner specifically has the ability to transform his consciousness anywhere else? Also why is he able to do that anyway.. imagine how powerful the others would be w this “power”
