This thread should be no different than the main animegaf thread, which means spoiler tags should be used whenever possible. Not everyone is going to be watching at the same pace and new watchers may want to post impressions on earlier episodes without fear of being randomly spoiled. The problem with adaptions is that many manga readers, see mangagaf, don't give shit and ruin these threads like they did with Jojo.

Can someone make a separate Spoiler topic?

It's in the OP.
Most OTs for TV shows have people discussing recent spoilers out in the open so that's why I asked.
I don't think spoilers for the latest episode is as big a problem as all the nudge nudge wink wink stuff honestly. The show seems compelling enough for those regularly following it such that it is unlikely someone will enter this thread before watching the latest episode, other than maybe the 1 week gap for free members on Crunchyroll. So maybe we can have something like all spoilers for the latest episode are marked, up until the next episode airs? And prior episode spoilers are unmarked?
Sounds good to me.

Couldn't wait, marathonged the manga. Holy crap. Such good things. I don't regret doing so either.

Burned through all five episodes last night. All I have to say is... FUCK.
And apparently everyone thinks the same as well, hahahaha.

Sounds good to me. Personally I'm more than happy to spoilertag any specifics of the show. Manga discussion or speculation on the anime that has its' roots in the manga should be left to its' own thread, and not here.

There's so much "wink wink" soft spoilers in OT threads that I never finish them until I'm all caught up to the latest episode.
A series like this where the manga has run long enough to go into what would be season four material for the anime only complicates things.

Don't jinx it.

That should be good...as long as its not mikasa.
I'm so doing this right now, this series is just---great. The Manga is crazy, just crazy.
That'd be nice. The one day delay for Crunchyroll subs on Episode 5 really sucked for spoilers. Just straight up, 'this is what happened and this is the big surprise' replies.

Yeah, spoiler tags aren't built in like bold and italics, but they aren't hard to label, folks.
I think that's fair.
Since most people agree, maybe Branduil can draft some clearer rules based on these guidelines and put them in the OP.
- No manga spoilers at all in this thread, go to the spoiler thread instead
- No hinting/confirmation/nudgenudgewinkwink garbage
- Mark all spoilers for the latest episode and avoid using gifs/images/etc which have any plot elements in them for impression posts
- Episodes older than the most recent episode can be discussed without spoiler tags to avoid clutter and to allow people to know what they should avoid more easily
That sound okay to everyone?

That sounds good. I think adding a big "NO MANGA SPOILERS" to the title like the GoT thread would help too.
That's good yeah.
Edit: Title is too long to include no manga spoilers. What do you want removed from the description line "Spiderman+Godzilla+BandofBrothers".
Yep, that would probably be for the best.
Make it an animated banner with huge captions and a dancing Titan in the background.

Oh god that's brilliant
LMAO...that's terrifying.
bigass dino kinda equals big ass titan
I could have put Gargantua instead but how many people know what that is?
Unless it leads to comparisons about how the material foreshadows subsequent material which has not aired yet! It could get tricky!

This would definitely help more than only being in the op.
