This show especially in this episode has a lot of Reverse psychology that goes into play to get the others to do what we want them to do...

With all the risks and trauma that comes with being a survey corp, obviously there will be freaks like hange who gets excited about titans and wants to explore them, or Mike who sniffs around and trusts his olphactory senses :D But the characters individual traits in AOT is what makes them so likeable. A lot of people confused sasha (the food Freak) and hange because of their hair color and style, but hange always has her glassss on. As always, great reaction !

J&J, get in line! I call dibs on Armin first 😤 fight me 😂
Also, a tip to pronouncing names correctly in anime is to hear how the characters in the anime pronounce the names.

During the training episode where Eren fails you can see steam coming from his head at dinner. Most assume this is the common anime trope of steam = comedic visual for injuries, but it's an early indicator of his powers. Now that you know he can regenerate at anytime.

Commenting based on Bibis comment. I definitely agree pace yourself so you don't get burnt out, but also in the future maybe stick to 2 anime at a time. It's hard to keep up with all of them 😅 I am so behind on BTS reactions from your Patreon and now I'm falling behind on your anime ones too. Although I love your reactions and know you will make the best choice for yall about how to move forward, I just think 3 animes at a time is alot. 😅😅😅 only my opinion. Love you guys and I will get through all of your reactions 1 way or another 🤗🫰🏼 💜🤍🖤

"I think Eren is the most morally righteous character, in my opinion." we love to see it!! as much as i have an affinity for truly villainous characters, i can also deeply appreciate ideal moral compasses like Eren Jaeger. <3

Something about this anime is so meta. Each episode is so relatable to the real world, displaying war in a very grandiose way. I’m curious what’s been y’all’s favorite episode so far.

2024-03-13 00:52:47 +0000 UTC
Can someone in their mods remind to not forget to watch the OVAs at the same time as the series. Particularly Ilse's Notebook (watch before starting season 2), No Regrets (watch before starting season 3), and Lost Girls (watch before starting season 4)???
CandykOh
2024-03-12 20:51:36 +0000 UTC
okay there is a big argument here if the intro contains spoilers or not. it comes down to what you define to be a spoiler for you. intros will show characters and scenes from future episodes. normally never any key parts or story beats but you can definitely see where the story is heading with them. like i said before, in my opinion it is best to watch an intro in the last couple episodes it features in as you will already know pretty much everything from the intro at that point. you could also just listen to them in the beginning because the songs set the mood really well

2024-03-12 18:32:04 +0000 UTC
yeah in general with watching anime (probably any show for that matter) it is best to keep any social media or search engine clean of content regarding that anime so the algorythm doesnt give you more, potentially spoilery content. another classic way to get spoiled is googling a character of an anime. Dont do it, if the character will die that will be the first thing in the autocomplete from google

2024-03-12 18:24:45 +0000 UTC
It surprises me when an AOT fan says they don't like Armin.. HOW CAN YOU NOT LIKE ARMIN ARLERT?
I'm convinced that most people have two favorite characters in AOT.. one Armin and other one is whoever they choose 😂

THIS. Along with those two and Jean and Armin, I prefer the dub voices.

Kel
2024-03-12 15:38:36 +0000 UTC
You guys fighting over who can claim Armin as your favorite is one of the best things I’ve ever seen. Armin doesn’t get enough love among fans and reactors, so you two are a blessing to someone like me whose favorite was Armin from the start. After so many watches I can now say that I have two #1 characters that are tied—Armin and Levi. I’m curious to see how your favorites change over time.
Kel
2024-03-12 15:37:24 +0000 UTC
Those comments had me cringing because we know what’s going to happen. I love this show so much for the way it constantly surprises you!
Kel
2024-03-12 15:34:59 +0000 UTC
Regarding the opening, some people are saying it doesn't have spoilers for some reason but it does. Of course you can choose to watch it if you want, but I don't want you to be mislead. For future reference, the openings with spoilers are openings 2 (this one), 3, 5, and 7

One of the greatest features about AOT is that there is essentially no right or incorrect answers. Everything is relative. Which type of encourages a lot of viewers to have discussions & disputes during the course of the show. Though good and bad still have definition. (Instances: Mikasa's kidnappers) Was it ethically repugnant for Eren to murder the traffickers when he was just a child? Yes and no answers can be distinct because it all boils down to perspective. It is quite clear that humans killing humans has always been morally reprehensible in the real world. But do the justifications make Eren's conduct acceptable? Was there any justifications for Captain Kitz, (the commander who attempted to fire the cannons in episode 10), to be afraid of Eren's titan abilities? As well comes down to perspective. Some discussions may not give a deep insight into the description of the characters mental process. But expressions and morality undertone always aid to infer what the characters can (potentially) be thinking on the inside.
Also I hope you guys remember Hange Zoe (She's my absolute favorite character of this show) following Erwin 😍

please react to the intros 🙏🙏
bort
2024-03-12 13:25:03 +0000 UTC
Of all the intros I feel this one is the most spoilerish. Like, they all show events from future episodes which some could argue are spoilers (the first one shows the lift scene, for example) but this one is almost like, they could shove Khaby Lame doing his trademark gesture in the middle of it. Strongly recommend you avoid!
Also, I thought 1 a day would sate my desire for it to be next weekend already but now I want it to be tomorrow already 😂
Mike Rees
2024-03-12 08:33:11 +0000 UTC
BROTHERS, im a paranoid of the spoilers, and i dont want you to "eat" any spoiler. Thats why i would like to say that be carefull watching AoT videos in youtube, the feed could play against you and recommend spoily videos just by having watched 1 single video of AoT. One tip is watching these videos in the "Incognito Mode" of your browser. Peace!!

Premier Zachary is in charge of the Garrison, MP, and Scouts. He's the big guy, no pun intended. 😂 not too sure why they got his name so messed up.
Pronunciation is Hahn-gee Zoey
And Mee-Kay, the dude who sniffed Eren 😂
Levi kicking the absolute dogshit out of Eren, Jordan is exactly right. Levi was trying to show that Eren has enough restraint and that if he needed to, Levi could absolutely kill Eren no problem.
The next stretch of 6 or so episode are absolutely bonkers, I can't WAIT to see how y'all react
I LOVE YOU GUYS! 💖

For name pronunciation:
Hange (Han-jee) (crazy glasses lady) you may see it spelt "Hanji"
Mike (Mee-kay) (sniffing guy) may see it spelt "Miche"
Sam Rock
2024-03-12 01:07:29 +0000 UTC
Just to clarify positions to make it easier to understand:
Dalius Zackly: Premiere Commander and has control over all 3 regiments
Erwin Smith: commander of the Survey Corp
Dot Pixis: commander of the Garrison
Nile Dok: commander of the Military Police
Erwin, Pixis, and Dok are all equal in status to one another.
But, many people disrespect the Survey Corp because they believe it to be wasteful of taxes, resources, soldiers, time, etc., which is why you may see people treat Erwin and the Survey Corp less than the other two regiments.
Sam Rock

Openings (and outros) are made for a reason. They’re meant to be watched as exactly what they’re called, an OPENING to the episode. Most anime openings also have a “pump” factor for ppl as they get into the episode, hence the use of music and popular artists. They’re not made to spoil anything.
Ashley K
2024-03-12 00:32:53 +0000 UTC
Yess I’m ready for tomorrow already!
I agree with you guys, Armin is my absolute favorite character so far. And, Levi, he’s so ruthless but he knows what he has to do. He’s extremely smart and assess the situation in a way that’s very rational. Even if that means he has to do things we may not want to see (like beating Eren). He definitely saved Eren tho. Getting angry and turning would have been detrimental and would have caused him to die. Like Levi said, Eren needs training. He has to learn to control himself and his Titan powers. I can’t wait til my boy gains control! Oh those Titans ain’t gonna have nothing on him.

2024-03-12 00:07:06 +0000 UTC
Why are the subtitles getting Dhalis Zachary's name wrong. There's no L (he's busy fighting Kira in death note anyway). You should probably use the crunchyroll sub if possible. Enjoying the reactions though!

Again amazing reaction! Armin is also my favorite! Small detail you might not have noticed at the beginning of some episode when the recap happens it’s Armins voice that narrates, when I first watched aot it took me so long to realize that

2024-03-11 22:18:21 +0000 UTC
Thank you for the new episode!
I already can't wait for tomorrow! lol
But as the comment said, please don't push yourselves too hard.
The arc coming next is my second favored arc!
I'm always saying this, but I can't wait for your reaction XD
Have fun, and take care!

yah armin and eren where friends way before mikasa came in the picture that’s why armin can sometimes get to eren a way mikasa can’t, but that doesn’t mean there’s favorites. they equally love each other and honestly i love their friendship 🫶🏽

A little immersive question for y'all¬
If you were both citizens of the walls, having suffered directly or indirectly from the titan scourge - be that having either witnessed the titans' bloodshed in person, or you were forced to abandon your homes, your livelihoods uprooted as a consequence of the titans entering the walls - realistically, would you enlist in the military?
If no, would you be content being a side character and future titan fodder, your lives determined by external forces? If yes, do you think you'd persevere and become a soldier, having mastered ODM gear? And where do you think you'd rank? - Top 10 cadets?? Or just another random soldier? And THEN (realistically!) what branch of the military would you join?
And then, if you had accompanied the soldiers who worked on the walls when the Colossal Titan reappeared in Trost, how would you react? Not how would you like to react - if you were in that scenario, would you be quick on your feet, fuelled by grave determination and immense hatred, like Eren; fall off the wall like Simon; or freak the hell out like Connie and every other normal human?
This looks long but swear there are only a few more questions¬¬
Assuming you survived this far c: would you believe Commander Pyxis when he announced the plan to retake Trost with a titan on their side?
Or had you been with Armin and his friends, would you believe in Armin and essentially work with a titan to retake HQ? Would you even be friends with Armin, Mikasa, Eren and the rest of the main cast do you think? Realistically! Because realistically, I can see Eren getting on my nerves - and being the coward that I am, every time he'd go into a spiel about killing the titans I'd act just like old Jean.
And then lastly, forgetting that you're a soldier... Just as a human being faced with the unknown, but clearly possessing characteristics of humanity's sworn enemies, would you be rooting for him? If Eren was a stranger, and you read about him in the clickbaity news and you knew nothing about him other than the fact he could turn into a titan, would you advocate for his strategic value or do the human thing and freak out?
This was a long comment but I do hope you see it<3 I love thinking about how I'd react to things if I was just a bystander rather than a main character. I can say WITH CONFIDENCE that nothing would stir me into wanting to join the Survey Corps. But what of you??
Thank you x

Episode 13.5 is a recap of the first thirteen episodes. You get a new intro song about halfway through each season except season 2 because there's only 12 episodes. I'd watch this one it's a banger they all are. Listen to the tones of the song I think that the way the music sounds really sets the tone for the episodes to follow.
Lauren Crawford
2024-03-11 18:43:00 +0000 UTC
Please, please, please stick with Crunchyroll for the sub version. The subtitles are far more accurate and less clunky than the blue-ray. You’ll miss out on a lot of the beauty of the show if you switch to the blue ray. The Annie scene that was cut out is basically the only missing scene in the entire show. Nearly all AoT reactors use Crunchyroll for this reason. A few examples:
Blue-Ray: “Silence you cur from the companies”
CR: “Shut up, merchant dog”
You already see them get tripped up by the weird wording in the blu-ray in this reaction.
Another scene:
Blue-ray: “you’ve got a big mouth, swine”
CR: “You talk a lot, pig”
In this one, pig is much more appropriate as that’s more used to talk down to cops in English, over the literal translation of “swine”.
Those are only two examples among many in every single episode. Really hope they see this comment and switch back to Crunchyroll.
Edit: there’s also a very crucial scene with very specific wording coming soon that the Blu-ray completely butchers and it actually affects the understanding of the plot significantly.

Today is a good day ☺️
Levi is so badass, all it took was this amount of introduction of his character for him to become my favorite so far in the series, just based on what we know already. Really at this point we are meeting a few members of the survey corps and they are all interesting 😁
someone mentioned the subtitles being different for Crunchyroll vs Bluray so I hope you see it and follow their advice.

Oof I wish Patreon allowed gif comments because there's no way to describe the feelings I'm having. I am so excited. You guys have the visible reactions which is usually my favorite part of watching reactors. But you guys are introspective enough to discuss the things that I see reactors missing and it is a truly *chefs kiss* beautiful merge of both
