Best episode yet, imo.

yeah and she still fucked up the back of his leg anyway
OMFG, this episode was lit, love Eren so much when he gets that angry, his seiyū is just amazing, Mikasa is still GOAT, Reiner losing is pretty incredible because well, that armored titans is scary and fucking awesome...
I'm glad we saw Annie again, dudes, I really like that character a lot and I was really sad when I learned she was a traitor... hopes we can see her in the good side someday, amazing anime, can't wait for next week.

I said before but I really feel this show will be regarded as a classic one day...
You can see her after the Colossal Titan first attacks.
In fact, if you slow down the attack, you can see who he grabs.
I have no idea who it is, but it's a guy.
Annie was right Mikasa is a beast. I'm sure this has been asked already but why the hell is it taking so long to produce this anime? The pace is so fast that some filler episodes wouldn't be a bad thing and the manga is so far ahead of the anime that can't be an excuse. I'm really enjoying this season but it's annoying to know that we will probably have to wait another 3-4 years for 12 more episodes which is ridiculous.

Yeah, this is why I prefer the original subs over dubs. Scenes like that just sound more epic and resonate more in Japanese than an English dub. We'll see how it sounds when Toonami gets to it.

Colossal's face looks different at the end, much more skeletal, too spoopy
I'm probably wrong but I think he was burning away his flesh while keeping up his steam.

Has anyone else been having trouble with Crunchyroll? Its been almost impossible to watch anything over the past week. Every time I try and use crunchy roll I just get error after error across all platforms (Pc, Xbox, iPhone). Why am I paying for this crap that barely functions
Maybe if it gets finished.
From what we've seen of the Colossal, my guess is that the form is too massive and requires too much energy to keep up any sort of prolonged action(especially when you consider the longevity and healing abilities of the other titan forms.. though the other forms are smaller even they struggle to last long before the form and shifter gets worn out). That's why it can stand there in S1 in front of the wall and steam and bash the wall and keep its face on... but in this episode we see it struggling to fight soldiers and detach itself from the wall(probably not a good idea to form the Colossal on the wall but Bert had no choice). Even though it didn't fully form on the wall its activities were way to strenuous to keep its form together. And yeah add to that the constant steam and its flesh was literally vaporizing before it could reform/heal.
The way it looked reminded me of the quasi-form Eren made in S1 to shield Mikasa and Armin from the barrage.

I'll be happy if we get S3 in 2019.
That is beyond depressing.
They're worried about overtaking the manga. It's a monthly, not a weekly, and the show doesn't lend itself well to filler. We only got one (great) filler ep, and it's hard to do more unless they put the OVAs in the main series or something.
I think we're on 88 now and by the end of this season we'll be on 50. And the next arc is about ~20 chapters long.
The way Reiner mentioned he was hoping to break humanities will, makes me think its gonna be revealed later that the humans are antagonizing the Titans and Reiner and Colossus dude are trying to break their will.
The way they keep mentioning their home, also makes it seem like they have some motives that are more complex than just kill humans

The manga is at 93 and there are like 2 more completed arcs after this plus they are working on another one. There is no excuse as to why it's taking so long. The episodes being adapted now are from 2012 and 2013 so they have enough material.

Yeah shouldn't we get more episodes next year and the year after fairly easily? I thought they waited so long to build up enough for no big breaks again.

Seriously, the cliffhangers for this show are particularly painful!
There's no way they won't start production on S3 soon after S2 ends. There's enough material right now for two more seasons. By the time those are out the manga will likely be over.
They likely don't want to have this long a wait between seasons again.

Hopefully, they announce a new season at the end of this one.

CG isn't used because 'it's cool', but because it's cheaper than traditional animation.
Someone took screenshots of the other person that got eaten.

It's just some random guy, why'd be even eat him? Bertholdt is a douche.
[edit]
Also, someone edited Mikaza attacking so it's not interrupted.

They're really going out with some of the animation this season.

Episode was too good, and the way they ended it was exactly as in the manga. Cliffhanger T_T
Which means that if they are adapting 1-2 chapters per episode, the last 3 episodes of the season are going to be a goddamn roller coaster ride. I'm actually sort of glad they made this season with one arc, because the next arc might have drag down the hype levels pretty badly.

And this is why the Anime is just leagues better.
Yeah, while I REALLY love the manga, you kinda just have to read it for the story because the art is so poor a lot of times.
It often gets in the way, too, cus scenes will happen and you're not really sure what is happening or characters look SO similar that you miss out on plot details cus you don't realize who is talking.
They've done a pretty amazing job adapting it.
[edit]
Besides the whole taking 3 billion years to release season 2 and season 1 having a good bit of budget issues where they couldn't animate some scenes and had to just use still images.

Awesome episode. Man why couldn't this season be longer?
Also, man is Mikasa so boring and generic. I really don't get the love this character gets. Hanji and Sasha meanwhile are awesome.

I'm kinda hoping s3 will come around immediately after attack on train s2.
They really missed a trick with waiting so long for S2. Considering the content covered in S2 rounded up a few years ago in the Manga, there wasn't a need to wait so long imho.
There's plenty of content for 2 more arcs now. The Manga has really become something special lately.
Also I just read that Araki isn't directing this season. Thinking back it does seem quite obvious now. I miss some of the OTT aspects of the show. However the more subdued tone has fit this season's story fantastically.

You don't like someone who's willing to put their life on the line to save you? Even when you're a titan?

Really love the sounds they gave the Armored Titan. Made him sound almost mechanical which made him far more imposing. The clanking of his armor when he punches too gives it so much heft.
Also yeah the animation was stellar. Glad to see their time and budget go into some of the more intense moments and doing them justice.
Also love the match cut between Hange, Armin and Mikasa at the very end along with the shot of Mikasa looking at the fight from a distance as
. Some really great framing overall
