I'm guessing that the 3 intelligent titans are looking for something that's guarded by either the King or the High ranking officers of the Miltary Police.
And they can't rely on their titan forms in wall Sina since that's where the most powerful weapons, and titan killers reside.
But since ordinary people aren't allowed to just waltz into Sina, they're using the hysteria of the Titan invasion as a cover to allow them to move closer and closer to the centre.

This episode was ace.
I really liked the confrontation at the end. Especially how as the conversation progressed you could tell the tension was rising. Very well done.
Next episode is going to be even better for sure.

Only thing we got, is the producer said he'd like to make a second season, the anime still has some material to draw from the manga, reportedly enough for a half season[13 eps] so far, and the manga is still ongoing so it might begin again after a haitus.
I'm wondering if the recent success of the anime may trigger them to push the manga to go from a monthly series to a weekly one. [although that's a ridiculous longshot and might damage the quality of the story.
Right now, I'm feeling they pushed for an anime too early. If they waited a year first, there wouldn't be a problem, atleast not until season 3. Now it feels like it may fizzle out before it even makes a point like HOTD.

Where is the story compared to the Manga?

The anime is at chapter 31 right now. It will likely end at chapter 34. The most recent chapter is 49 and it releases monthly, so we might be at 50 when the anime ends.
Oh man oh man oh man oh man... I just discovered that the manga's are available in the internet and I couldn't resist so I read the three next parts after the last anime episode. Oh man oh man oh man :| Some epic shit is happening. Can't fucking resist, I'll just read all the chapters RIGHT NOW. OHMYGODWHATISHAPPENINGINTHIS :|| Oh my god :|
I must say though, that the stuff until the end of this season of anime will be probably 10x more awesome in anime than in the manga (even though the manga is super-awesome!), so don't be as weak as me

what, really? i thought there was a lot more material to go. they should just hire the Manga-ka and make him a full time storyboard artist and writer. I mean, his manga is basically storyboard material to me, heh.

Huh? What did I say? Did I screw up again? :(
I started reading the manga a few weeks ago and then faced the fear of having to wait for it on a weekly bases which is the situation I had with the anime... thank god for Berserk and a few other mangas I've started following again. I feel by the time I cycle back to AoT, it'll be sometime next year and I would have farmed a few more chapters to add to the rotation.

As awesome as that would be, it kind of undermines the whole manga industry, and the guy is rich as fuck as it is because of that (in his mid 20s no less :/ ).
Also, never-ending anime generally has much worse animation than stuff broken up into 13-26 episode seasons, with the exception of the new Hunter x Hunter for some reason.

12 chapters a year, 30-35 chapters a a season. 15 chapters left over. Soooo.... about a year and 6 months before they have enough material for season 2?
Man screw that, someone needs to speed the manga production.
Or, maybe they can godfather II it, and stretch out the available material with the prequel plots from the light novels? That might be cool.
if they have a bible work from, i wouldn't mind fillers. hell, i just want to see more of the world.

... Garlic Jr Saga from DBZ was pretty decent.... then I remember bount saga from bleach and scream in horror.
But, this series is all character death in droves so far.
What's it gonna be like if Season 1- Everybody dies all the time
Season 2[filler]- no one dies ever
Season 3[cannon]- back to the blood bath
It's just going to seem lame as hell. I mean, they could just thow up dozen 'red shirts', but who isn't going to see right through that?

Thank you!
LOL
Filler could mean much more than the people protecting the city. They could focus on the other aspects of the city and politics. All we see is the war and not the other stuff. No offense to the Manga-ka but the way he tells the story is shit compared to the anime team.

Yea, I don't mind stuff like that. Keep it away from the current main story and I'm fine with it. Just don't do it like the Naruto fillers. *barf*

And yet again I find more stuff done by fans:
AoT Opening 50-75% Animated on a Chalkboard by High School Students

I need to find better stuff than this, I know they exist! Also it apparently took them a month to do this

It's not a survival thing at all? I was hoping for something like a Levi coming of age story, earning his hellicopter spins among swirling Survey team horror shows of brutally failed missions. Plus, you could bring out the entire elite teams personalities. I really like them.
If they could pull something like that off in filler, you can keep the cannon, lol.
It's set 70 years in the past at the founding of the modern Military.

Crazy how this video has more animation than some episodes of Titan this season.
These videos also make me realize how awesome the original OP was and how much the new one sucks.
Romars202129

But like, people die, right? Survival?
Of course, the Titans already exist at that time.

They should adapt Shingeki Middle School while they wait for the Manga to get farther ahead.
It's only 1 chapter in (although it's based on pre-existing light novels.)

I knew that fruit was way too low hanging for someone not to grab.
But, Aria Shojo....
Can we expect it to... similar to the original series in tone?
Edit: Yeah, probably a big no there.
I never seen fangirls snatch up a character so quick in my life. He's like Sasuke x 10 to them, lol.

They should have that as a 2-3 minute post-credit supplement for every episode in season 2. Now that's how you add "filler" (and mood whiplash).

That was really good. Makes me regret the time I wasted in high school kinda.

Attack on Titan 23
That was pretty good. I actually liked the added scene; it wasn't subtle, but I thought it did a better job of developing Annie's character than the similar scene in the manga, where she just had a casual conversation with Marlowe.

The laugh and parkour chef were pretty silly Araki embellishments, though. Annie's smile in the manga was more effective, especially with how similar it looked to the female titan's smile. That parallel was lost with the laugh.
