Seeing as nopony else made an Attack on Titan thread, I decided to put one out there. If you haven't seen the show, and don't mind blood and gore, google it. You'll love it XD

 

As for those who have watched it, here's a place to discuss it. The show, the characters, speculations, the fan game (yes there is a fan game for this), all of these are viable topics for discussion as long as they are related to the show c;

mmhm, I've been following it for a while now, it's really damn good. I'mm admit the Titans appearance bugged me a bit at first, but you get over it soon, and the characters are really great, the art style is amazing, the stories are all really well done and the pacing is great. Overall, it is a really damn good anime, really worth getting into.

Actually contemplated making a topic on this, but didn't think it had caught on enough.

So excuse me while I go and be slightly giddy :P (Been following it since around ep 4 ((I think?)) and super happy that the fandom is still growing)

 

Crossing my fingers suuuuper hard that the rumors of a second season is true (That cliffhanger ;n; and I need more AoT!)

Well that much is obvious.
Though I keep hearing talks of April 2014, and it seems verry early considering the anime supposedly already covered more then half of the currently released manga (if I recall), so idunno.

 

Isn't as much a question if they'll do it, it's more when they'll make S2

 

 

Been contemplating picking up the manga, if anything just to get more of the story,

but allways disliked reading manga digitaly =(

(And it's outof the question for me to get physical copies for a number of reasons)

Being entirely serious, If I'd actually decide to join the military, odds are I'd go for Garrison.
 
While the thought of (hopefully) having done something meaningfull to help combat the titans is tempting, the fact that I'm verry likely to die (admittedly only judging by current KIA to living rate) and horribly, scares me of from Recon Corps.
 
And me even being given the option to join The Military Police seems rather unlikely to me.
(It is after all only an option avaliable to the top 10 recruits in the group)

I'd imagine fighting titans whilst using your wings to maneuver around them (And dodge their grabby hands) would tire your wings. Perhaps you could use them once your wings get tired or sprained or whatever? And of course Earth Ponies and Unicorns would need them in combat.

The more accurate reason would be, you can't react as fast with wings compared to the Maneuver Gear.

With wings, banking would take more space (and time) as compared to grappling there via-jet propulsion, not to mention being reeled in at the same time.

 

The only reason to use wings when in such conditions would be as an airbrake, or to make tiny course corrections when being pulled along. 

 

Also, flying titans.

New side story has been animated (and it's actually canon material 8D)

 

Shingeki no Kyojin: Ilse no Techou ("Ilse's Notebook"),

and boy did it pull me back in proper on why I like this show :P

 

I wont mention much to avoid spoilers for people that haven't read it or seen the ep yet,

but imo it has quite some interesting material to theorise over (atleast if you're blind to the manga like me >w>)

Another question.

 

What would you do if you saw a titan? You only have what's in your house, so no 3DMG

Restrain my brother, take pictures, send it to the internet, then the police, then make some makeshift bombs to wreck the damn thing's achilles tendon, followed by taking some knives and cutting out it's nape

 

Not like I could use 3DMG anyway.

Personally...

 

I'd fucking run away screaming while trying to find the nearest hunting rifle to shoot out its eyes while I run until the military or summit takes care of it.

 

Get on that thing's neck and try to cut it before its achilles tendons regenerate?

Well I think the beauty of modern technology is I can shove a large object into the cut and prevent it from regenerating.

Like a hunk of metal or something.

Of course, until they found it's weakness, the military would be kinda useless, and even more so for me, because I live in England.

When they did, they better ensure they got explosives to blow the damn thing.

I suppose the military would try to nuke the things if we couldn't find their weakness quick enough, which would pretty much ensure humanity's extinction :I

I'm taking into account how frightened they would be (come on, being eaten alive would scare the pootis out of anyone), how fast the problem would spread (Titans seem to be infinite), and of course, They'd probably loose their power rather quickly in the initial waves (oil wells being cut off, trade ships being cut off, etc.) But maybe I am just a pessimist as well :P

Well it's a matter of once they figure out the weakness, they take a bunch of helicopters, then fire missiles as the titans napes.

Then build a society on the water.

Weeeeelll titans are hilariously fragile (it would be hilarious if they couldn't regenerate at least...) soooo how about using a moderate power laser to slice off the nape of the neck?

I have a couple methods :3

 

1. Suicide-bombing quadrotor drones with nail-filled pipe bombs strapped to themselves. (Titans only attack humans, therefore wouldn't consider them a threat, then *BAM* dead)

 

2. Upside-down "L" shaped walls to block Titans from sunlight

 

3. Explosive Arrows for use with Compound Bows

 

4. And of course, orbital strike lasers from satellites.

Lack of sunlight doesn't kill titans, it just weakens them.

And nails and explosives aren't gonna do much in the way of ripping the nape out.

1. True, but that's only for a certain amount of time. We don't know (us watchers of the anime, not readers of the manga) if cutting it off permanently would kill them. 

 

2.I get this. Maybe razor blades instead?

Again, the actual nape wouldn't be cut in the way necessary to kill a Titan

And also if you watch after the credits of the last episode you'll see how long titans can survive without sunlight.

Both good points, my mistake.

 

Orbital strike it is.

So I finally decided to pass the first episode and watched the thing. and I'm gonna say, it's terrible. First of all the pacing sucks. Oh my it's Dragon Ball Z all over again. It takes so long to get to point A to point B I just found myself bored most of the time. Second of all so many things that they just don't bother to explain.

 

Here's a couple. What the hell was the colossal titan at the end? What happened to Annie? What's the deal with the fusion shit at the end? Why did Annie put Eren in her mouth instead of killing him? Was she bringging him to the titan in the mountain? Now to think of it what the hell was the titan in the mountain?

 

The last thing I hated the ending Annie goes to that blue crystal thingy and that's it the narrarator just tell us everyone else is just fighting and not really doing anything, meaning the acomplished precisely nothing during the entire anime

What kind of anime forces you to read the manga to understand the story. Yes the manga has always more in dept to the story but I was never forced to read the damn thing to understand it. Now Attack on TItans is forcing me to read their damn manga so I can understand what is going on? Fuck you that is just lazy work.

It's not terrible for a reason like that, as it is explained when they find out why she wanted him, which in case you can't tell has not happened in the anime.

ok, this pissing match between you two needs to end
 

Well it was explained that the female titan wasn't meant to kill eren
 
For reasons explained in the manga.
 
Also yeah he'd just change inside her and make her explode.

 
Considering that tude quite clearly questioned why she did that instead of killing him, saying the explanation to why she didn't kill him is because she didnt plan to kill him, or something, is quite redundant.
 
And again, he's judging it based on the anime alone, as in on it's own merits and not the source
 
Lastly, I think you missed the part where he was quite clearly unconcious and had gotten the snot beaten outof him, so the odds that he would wake up and change within any reasonable timeframe is quite slim.
 

and that's it the narrarator just tell us everyone else is just fighting and not really doing anything, meaning the acomplished precisely nothing during the entire anime

I really cant tell if you are just ignorant here, or deliberately trying to piss people of.

The entire point of when they start to wrap up the show (for the moment) is that for the first time since they appeared, mankind can and is starting to reclaim territory, they even state it bluntly around the point they reclaim Trost.

The military is aware about the power to change into a titan, and more importantly is aware that traitors snuck in when the outermost wall was breached.

The military has enlisted one of the people with the power to change into a titan.

 

In the grand scheme of things, they know that the titans are faaaaaaaar more then what they look like, and are starting to account for that (Ilse's Journal is a perfect hint to that).

But wanna know why this is not properly wrapped up, why questions like what the fuck the Colossal Titan actually is (besides already heavy hints that it's someone who can change between human and titan)?

 

Well my cynical man, it. isn't. finished

The people involved have expressed a huge interest and will to keep the show rolling beyond the originally planned and current ammount of epps.

They have no reason to not continue it either as the show has gained an HUGE surge in paying fans thanks to it, not even counting the additional surge that could happen if this is brought over properly to countries like the US.

 

The anime isn't finished, it's suspended.

It's suspended to when the manga has gotten more story outof the way, because they have already covered a significant chunk of the currently released chapters to date

 

If you have a problem with waiting for the anime to restart, then the manga can explain some of the questions you have, and if you have a problem with them not handing every answear to you on a silver platter.

Well the door is right there, kindly get out and stop whining at something that never will appeal to you

Why would they even bring it up if they are not going to explain in the anime in the first place. Blazer try to see in a perspective of a guy who doesn't read any manga or isn't much of fan of anime in general he picks this one up and by  the end of it things that should be adressed weren't. What you do now? You are forced to buy the manga to finish the story

What you do now? You are forced to buy the manga to finish the story

 

First of *points to door*

I dont know why the fuck you expected to like this show

if you dislike anime in general, so dont go blaming the show for having

failed to appeal where it already couldnt.

You have bias against this medium in general, bias which obviously hasnt been looked past, so I'm not

surprised you carry such negative opinions here.

 

Secondly, you didnt even read a damn thing I said, did you?

 

They have every intention to keep the story going, They just need to wait so they have material to cover

While I dont have exact numbers, I know for a fact that in the current episodes they've covered a significant chunk of the current manga to date.

If they were to keep going immediately, they'd run out of material to cover and either have to suspend it for faaaaaaaaaar longer, or devolve into meaningless filler for several months, neither being perferrable.

 

The show hasnt ended, it's in a season transition not unlike any other show or cartoon (MLP anyone?), only difference is that they have no defined date when it returns, and have begun animating the sidestories in the meantime.

 

 

Lastly, get of your high horse.

I know for a fact that the AoT manga, like any other nowadays, is avaliable online free of charge.

If the issue is that you have to purchase the manga to continue the story (surprise surprise, most anime exist to promote the manga), then go online and read it ffs.

 

You can keep the arguing up, but your points barely have any validity, tude
