Didn't you notice how powerful and confident Armin's salute was?!
I didn't catch a lot of things. Hard for me to follow all the action when an episode is only 20 seconds long.

Episode 10 was not bad. Y'all just tired of Armin.
Everyone is tired of him

Yeah wasnt sold on the show until
and I was so hopelessly hooked on this show. The last 2 episodes though have really made me dislike it.
Episode 10 should be named "Armin Cries, Armin Yells - The 22minutle character exposition of godawfulness"
Eren gets eaten

Code Geass certainly does something to my mind with its twists.

did you edit your response from Vangurd or smth?
Thx heard of it but didn't watch it will be on my radar
I'm enjoying the series, but yeah episode 10 was just plain not good. There's still a lot of stuff I can't wait to see animated, but I'm really glad I started reading Berserk. More than enough grim-dark there to sate my thirst. But lord, I enjoyed the series the most when humans were nearly helpless. It had true horror and was scratching my Kaiju itch real good. I still love the concept and the setting, but the series did not go down the road I wanted. I guess I'll have to wait till Legendary Godzilla releases to get what I want . . .
LOL. Can't wait to drink all the tears.

Manga spoiler?
What? The episode just finished airing.
Ep10 should be on Vol4 of the BD/DVDs, which is coming out in October. By then the TV series should be over, so... maybe they'll have time... but they'll still have to work on that OAD episode coming with the manga volume in December... lol. Hope they don't die.

I have to wonder if Wit will even be able to finish the TV airing.
Your first sentence is certainly arguable, but... Gantz? LOL

Episode 11 Icon - The Battle for Trost (7)
Kind of wish the episode was balanced better, as it took until 21 minutes to actually feel like the anime is conveying any sort of action to go with an attack :/. Though I was glad for lots of the conversation moments when centered on Eren and a few intriguing and kind of funny moments that got me to laugh a little. Did think it wasn't right how they kept calling him spoiled as it doesn't really make much sense and they just came across as rather annoying, why can't anyone honor Eren's wishes and desires, hes not a child or her brother even. The fly through was fun
They should have also not included a preview for the next episode, just based on the scenes shown and the dialogue makes it feel like we were spoiled

and mindblown at the ending scene...pretty bold move if Mikasa is really dead, I can only imagine how things would go on from here.

on a surprise move by Armin, and Conny fortunately escaping danger.

Did anybody see Titanfall? I know many of the ideas in Attack on Titan are standard tropes but the resemblance is quite striking.

The moment Eren said "I must become a symbol.", the Batman Begins theme started playing in my head.

Watched it and I think I just want to stop until the show nearly done. Pixis (or however it is spelled) is okay, but the constant dread and fear eating up precious air time is killing this show.
We get it. Titans are some scary fucks.

I saw this on Crunchyroll's 'Most Popular' list and it looked interesting. I'm looking for a new show to get into as Bleacj is on hiatus anyway.

There was about 15 minutes worth of padding in this episode

You won't get any, because I'm just laughing at the show

It feels kind of overdone at this point, especially this 7th episode of this battle...

Watched the episode, feels like they are pushing it. The last few seconds, of course, start to speed up. Also, the preview, damn I don't like when they spoil certain stuff.

The pacing is now approaching Marineford levels. They've really completely botched this series up.

Since its aired I don't have to worry. But its going at the slow rate like the manga.
It gets real good later on. But I can't spoil anything

Well, as always, I try to make the GIFS out:
I ain't mad.
I sat through 60 eps of garbage filler through shows like Bleach and One Piece to see less being set up for much more meaningless events. My faith will be rewarded.
Besides, they looked like they were struggling with animation and deadlines at times early on. Since they clearly haven't drawn anything up for the past few eps, I have to have faith that they're saving up for later episodes.

That was certainly a cool shot. If only it didn't take 20 minutes to get there, LOL.

Obviously we just had to get that long scene of the team walking together and having Eren chewed out, following on from a previous scene where the entire team slowly got picked as the commander addressed each of them personally. There's no way a piece of dramatic television could work without all of that.
I'm definitely done with this show. The glacial pacing and rampant animation corner-cutting has basically nullified any sense of enjoyment that Attack on Titan was giving me, which still wouldn't be much at this point because my tolerance for every character being a RAW BUNDLE of EXPLOSIVE EMOTION engaging in pants-on-head dumbshittery for the sole purpose of ginning up conflict has completely evaporated.
I'm still going to catch up on the manga because a.) I'm still kind of engaged by the part of the narrative that directly involves the conflict against the Titans and b.) it's a significantly smaller time investment for more content than what I'd have to put into the remainder of the anime, but the animation production is easily at clusterfuck status and the stretching and stalling only serves to exacerbate the worst aspects of the narrative and its characters.
