^YES! That or Sony Santa Monica since they did the titans for GOW.
Ah, okay. Thanks. I need to go check that out again because that's pretty big.
More silly speculation after episode 8 :
Yeah, but who's to say she didn't get the injection as well, then? I know it's pretty outlandish, but it'd be a pretty awesome - and sickening - twist. Either way, it's an interesting revelation, hopefully we get to understand the relationship between the humans, the Titans and Eren being inside one.
That's gospel right there.
With swinging physics inspired by Spiderman 2.
No he's absolutely correct. The show is not Martin-like.
They still wouldn't have the money to do it. I'm sure there's understaffing going on.

I don't think it is under staffing. People were talking earlier in this thread about the absurd number of key animators they have working on this. I kind of hope they are stretching themselves thin so they can work on multiple episodes at a time and eventually build up a one week buffer or something. Is it a terrible sin to take a week off? I know they issued a formal apology for not delivering full episodes just a week ago, but I don't know if it is a contractual issue or a reputational one.

There is a part of me that wishes I'd waited to watch Attack on Titan until I could just go through all the episodes. SO GOOD. I haven't watched any anime since...damn, I think .hack was the last thing I watched, and that was back in 2006 when I did. This is great though, really enjoying it.

Sweet Gif. The Titan Punch against the two big titans.

Titan 8
Surprised anime viewers are having a warmer reaction then I did to the twist. It'll be interesting to see how people react to where things go from here though.
Really did enjoy the episode as a whole, the only still that really bothered me was the walking down the stairs one. If you want to do still images do it off no name characters being eaten or escaping, not of the core cast interacting.

Dat mouth to neck action
And no it shouldn't be platinum who makes a game for this..it should be Sucker Punch.
lol I thought it was more hilarious when he kicked the smaller Titans with his feet and was beating the crap out of the ones that ganged up on him.
Killing the Titan that killed Thomas was just icing on the cake.
Edit:
I'm telling you guys Sony Santa Monica! They did Kratos's blades of Chaos which is dual wielded just like in Titans. A Kratos skin bonus would be pretty awesome as well to kill Titans with.
All I have to say about the latest Episode is reading the manga didn't really ruin anything. This anime handles scenes so much better than the manga, and I enjoy comparing the show with the source material. Animation in general is much better at conveying a sense tension than comic panels, it just is IMO. I also love watching this show with my brother who is watching the series cold. haha

Yeah I'm all for a Sony Santa Monica x Sucker Punch game. SP for the open world and traversal. SSM for the combat
They're clearly doing it for budget reasons, given the amount of FX necessary for the wirework action scenes. I don't have a problem with the tradeoff, although a break midway through probably wouldn't be a bad thing if they're running that close to the wire on the show right now.
Who did this happen to?
How could you not give in after the 3rd or 4th episode?

Given the incredible amount of spoiler warnings, I figured it was better to let myself be surprised.
Yep. Best character next week.

Am I supposed to know who this is? I don't remember seeing him in previous episodes.
He was in the first or second episode. Also in this ep's preview.

Hmm, I'll look for him again. I saw him in the preview, but I didn't know why he was so special.
Moody, funny sadist type character that's a good foil to Eren's moody, not funny sadist type character
Rivaille is Dat dude.
I've read ahead in the manga. He is my favorite character after Mikasa <3

Awesome episode. Haven't read the manga so looking forward to moody sadist guy.
Just occurred to me what usually happens to characters in this situation in most anime.
Hope they don't go this route. So tired of the nonsensical
Even though he saved their bacon and showed no interest in harming humans, they'll still, against all logic treat him like dirt because of what he became.
"he's different, let's hate him even though he's our savior" crap.

My guess is that its
the shit that his dad injected into him by force. Perhaps the doctor knows more about the titans and anyone else and has some sort of titan DNA that can make you turn into one if need be. I knew this couldn't be the end of Eren, that would just be terrible. The scene where titan Eren saves Mikasa is similar to the one where he saves her when they are children, thats when I knew it was him.
Anyway. This anime is shaping up to be godlike all around. Love the characters, the animation and the action. And the twists, so unexpected.
Sew gewd.
I'm right there with you man. This shit is godlike.
What if
all the injections did was allow him to keep some part of consciousness? What if inside every Titan there's a little person in the cockpit? I mean think about it. Their weak spot is the nape of the neck where Eren was inside his Titan-bot. Coincidence? Maybe. Could be its their weak spot because you're killing the pilot though.
Yea, I'll dash your hopes right here, the episode 9 preview indicated that humanity is going to hate Eren for those very reasons.
lol, and they were doing so well in not falling into annoying anime tropes.
I mentioned earlier about this descending into a show about the lead's existential crisis and becoming a mopey, annoying, adolescent, "hero" (i.e. Evangelion) jokingly. I hope I was wrong. Pleeeease don't let this turn to shit, Japanese writer guys. I know it may be your first inclination to throw some psycho-babble bullshit into this show, but just focus on the fight against the Titans and the Band of Brother-ness. That's what brought everyone here. That's what will get us to stay.

That definitely could be the case. Then could the titans who are attacking be
advanced weapons used by an unknown nation far outside the walls to conquer Eren's people (and perhaps other countries as well)? Then the pilots of the titans must be brainwashed or trained to kill and nothing else. The colossal red titan and the armored titan seem to be like Eren though.
This is so interesting.
Lol. No they weren't. The story has always been a scam since the start. It's just a typical shounen action manga wrapped in false pretence and an interesting setting. Nothing more. Hope you like people shouting a lot and getting nothing done, cause there's a whole lot more of that coming.
You sticking with it though, right?
Uh... um... let's just watch the show shall we?
It's definitely not the first time duckroll is wrong on anime if he is.
I dunno, I've got mixed feelings on that regard. Just when I started thinking "God the main character is as annoying and self righteous like every other goddamn shonen character ever, he needs to be punched in the face", Mikasa just stepped in and did exactly that.
I admit it is starting to feel that way. It's DBZ all over again. I'm watching 20 minutes of slide show for 2 minutes of action. I enter every new episode waiting for the big payoff, but it never happens. Sure we get little plot nuggets, but in a full on attack of the city after watching several episodes of them training to fight, you'd expect to see more... fighting.
