I'd wager that Crunchyroll simply has more professional translators than fansubbing groups that like to brandish "fuck" because "Anime is for adults and is edgy!". Crunchyroll typically doesn't censor anything.

Why the long case?
Ah alright. Nah I wasn't worried about the language as much as the violence. I saw a picture from the manga of
Franz's bitten in half corpse. I was wondering if crunchy roll censored that, because when I watched the scene I thought she was just giving CPR to a dead body. The scene hits me a lot harder emotionally knowing she is delusional and that he is very clearly dead.
To me, the titans are dangerous as hell. Whenever that happens, it just means the characters are all crappy at fighting them, only the strong ones can kill them and survive. If none of the strong guys are present, bet your ass some people are gonna get eaten.
A lot of Crunchyroll's translators were former fansubbers. Has that changed recently?

While I certainly agree that the pacing of the series hasn't been great for the last few episodes I'd argue that this episode is a bit of an improvement over last weeks outing. Perhaps I've just resigned myself expecting the quality of the show to dip because of the obvious production difficulties the show is encountering.

Doesn't Crunchyroll still use honorifics? Definitely wouldn't call that more professional.

Jesus Christ. I can't remember the last time I've seen a show that started off this energetic but then lost 100% of its forward momentum so abruptly. These last three episodes could have been done in, what, seven minutes each? If that?
I don't know if they're just stalling to try to make sure they don't catch up with the manga too soon or something, but good lord, they're just killing this show.

From what I understand, they have a variety of translation companies that they work with. Indeed, some did start as fansubbers.
That's on the call of whatever company is producing subtitles for the show. From an interview with one of the translators, he stated he would rather not use honorifics, but there would be some shows where it's appropriate. Totally Japanese slice of life show? Appropriate. Futuristic anime set in Neo America? Not so much. But again, it's up to the company.

Dat 7th track, so good.

I can't believe how many people think this show is bad. It could also be a good thing, because if I like this show i'm sure I will love whatever you guys usually watch.
I don't usually watch anime.

The last 3 episodes were really quite close to the Dragon Ball z pacing.
Maybe with less landscape pans.
Vastly underestimated the time they needed for the action scenes.
it's all about the 1st track brah
it even has a crazy ass title!

on another note, what language is that? german again? anybody knows what the lyrics were?

Is the bond between Eren and Mikasa a brother/sister thing or romantic? I can't tell what direction they are taking this in.
I am glad I haven't read the manga, because I would probably feel the same way. That was what killed Naruto for me years ago when I was still interested in it.
It doesn't seem romantic to me. Mikasa seems to consider Eren as family.

I think her back story offered good reasons to believe her dependance on Eren isn't romantic. Losing Eren would be repeating her defining trauma of losing her family a third time over.
I think I'll stay with the TV size version :|
Was coming here to post that. It's pretty mediocre after the initial 1:30 minute mark.
Did anyone else catch Attack on Baby?
I haven't read the manga either and I think the pacing is terrible too. I just watched the newest episode today and that's just because I was bored. Huge difference from how I felt for the first 8.

I watched this today up to Episode 7. I don't know how many times I got close to crying. This anime is amazing so far.
Had no problems with the pacing myself. Then again, I still watch Naruto...
Actually, I marathoned all 11 eps this evening because I couldn't help myself. Story isn't the deepest in the world, but the character motivations are well defined, the story hooks are well set, and dat action...
Really hope this gets the chance to follow the manga to its end. Hate anime-original endings.

I stopped watching Naruto because of filler and not really caring. I would like to find a list of the episodes where the crazy shit happens and the good fights happen so I can just watch those.
I think the show is great and I hope it goes to the end too, original endings are ok, look at Full Metal Alchemist. I liked it, though I liked Brotherhood much more.

The OST from the latest episode was fantastic, despite the fact that it was just one long speech. Honestly, the pacing is getting really shit these last few episodes.

I just did the same thing yesterday and today on Crunchyroll. My new favorite anime. Pumped for the new episode tomorrow!

I agree with every word in this post.

Seriously lol, if they ever make a real working version there will be so much whiplash injuries XD
Continue with show, when you've reached the current episode and believe you can't wait for the next part manga, then you've gotta wait for the manga chapters which will take even longer lol, think it's monthly released XD
Continue with the show.

The characters being eaten on screen with visible blood, arms bit off and flying at the viewer...are not brutal and is toned down?
Yeah, but I would love to see an example from the manga though (from one of the chapters that has been adopted as anime already, of course)

I can kill a few, but once they notice you they'll follow you anywhere so when you've killed 5+ you might have aggro'd 15 and it becomes really difficult. My tactic is to use Q/E to tag the back of the neck and then start slashing till I hit the right part.
They trying to replicate the struggle with these controls? I managed to get ONE titan, and that was the luckiest hit ever.

This game feels impossible until you realize you can hold q and e for the aimed left and right grapple hooks.
