Attack on Titan 4x13 Reaction
if we don't post episode 14 on tuesday, know that we have died...
also, we've gotten messages from a few people who were telling us that ep 14 and 16 are not good on bluray, like that there's an issue or something and to watch a fanmade version that i guess cuts between the bluray version and the regular one, so let us know if that's something we need to do
Comments (146)
this is in my opinion the best episode of the whole show for me I could write an essay on it omgggg it's so fucking tragic
actually this episode and the next one!! they destroy me but wowww
I have my snacks ready, currently kinda starving, but gotta wait for the reaction in a few, it will be a rollercoaster of emotions
HEY U DEAD?
Don’t read any of the comments by the person with a Russian name straight above me he spoils in all his comments. (Don’t have Russian alphabet and am on my phone so can’t copy the name) DONT READ ANY OF THE COMMENTS FROM HIM/HER.
Максим Палагута is the username
haha when the blonde went "uhhhhh"
comment by Максим Палагута is spoiler territory, please delete
In the sense of a spoiler? I didn't say anything about the next episodes. I said to reconsider what has already been given and to relate it. After watching, they themselves asked about it. Spoiler, this is when they tell events that have not yet happened, I didn’t say anything like that.
If you want to know what the girl and the tree symbolize in the ending, then just revisit the very first ova)
That is not it at all, this is spoiler territory.
I’ve been waiting for you guys to watch this episode. We can see Gabi’s brainwashing being destroyed here.
if you get around to it please watch arcane its a great show :)
I think the issue fans have with armin or even hange is that everyone has been expecting them to figure out another way to end this conflict, but we ain’t getting anything. At least zeek and eren have a plan, maybe a cruel one but still they are moving towards something.
I hate Floch, but that evil face is epic
i love him
Yeah, Floch knows. Zeke didn't betray anyone. This was Zeke and Erens plan.
I mean he betrayed the Paradis military but not Eren
Both the openings and ending song lyrics are about eren
I personally don't think that a character who has no quality other than thinking war crimes funny and being so smug is hated just because he killed a fan favorite character. It would be too simplistic.
I don't see any character who thinks war crimes are funny in AoT (aside from the soldier that killed Grisha's sister and maybe Floch)... saying a kid that went through trauma, brainwashing, and only knows war and self hatred all her life is just ''too smug'' is too simplistic to me... And I don't even liked the characters in first watch, I understood her motives and still couldn't help feeling anoyed by her hate for paradis. But is just stop and think a little to know it is just sad and tragic.
Personally I would continue with the Bluray version. I had compared the differences with the TV version, and had not seen any issues, only improvements.
Maybe it's just me, but it's so refreshing to see reactors not simp like crazy over the characters but really take time to understand their motives and how tragic they are. Their line about Eren's 8-pack being built on trauma and tears was gold! Probably my favorite reactors to this series
They are for sure my favorite reactors for AoT
That's one of my favorite episodes, your reaction was priceless
I think you should watch the next eps the same way you've watched so far, if you search for fanmade vids you'll most likely get spoiled from tiltes/images/etc, not worth for these last eps trust me !!
Also yes, it means 'Team Floch' - there is literally a portion of the fanbase that agrees with that Hitler youth motherfucker
I was holding myself of saying this in respect at those who for some reason like him... I totally understand where his atitude came from, but I like him? No, I don't. I don't give a shit he was rude to Armin in season 3, everyone would expect them to chose Erwin and he went through a trauma. Now, Paradis civilians and even new recruits like Louise is understandable and even expected want to kill everyone if it's what is taken to survive, but he was the only one that had seen all that was hapenning from inside and still is all about killing inocents not because is the only way but because he want it. I understand him and still he is the only character I really dislike. I admire the girls for being so respectful when talk about him... I would probably just call Floch and '' Yeagerists'' in the fandom a piece of crap xD.
DRAG THE GABI HATERS, DRAG THEM
1:04:48 "so its about revenge" "its about being free, in my opinion" "its about drive its about power we stay hungry we devour put in the work put in the hours and take whats ours"
Isn’t it funny how armin once said “those who can’t abandon anything can’t change anything” and now he has killed the most civilians and children, HOWEVER he still so badly wants a peaceful solution. He’s the worst monster with the greatest humanity in the show.
But when he said that he was talking about sacrificing your own side for the greater good, like what Erwin did with sacrificing hundreds of his own soldiers to save all of humanity. The anime sort of changed it by making him say it again and again
How is it even possible for a show to be so good that just a scene of people sitting down and talking to each other can have you on the edge of your seat not just once but TWICE?! Not many shows can have insane action moments that are super intense and still have freaking character conversations that top those action scenes in intensity. This series is just not another level.
Info about the movie (no spoilers): The person who leaks the information is someone reliable since he also did it with the previous season and he was right in everything. This person has very specific information, such as that the new season will adapt until chapter 131 of the manga (the manga ends in 139). The new season will have between 12 and 14 chapters, and though the guy has not confirmed a film that adapts the rest, he believes that it is most likely. In the next few days, leaks will surely continue to come out so we will find out new things. So please, be really careful on twitter.
One of Big Floch's finest moments in this episode. How could you hate that smile?
LOLLLL this is one of the best episodes, and you could say this about just any episode, but this next episode is going to ruin you I'm sorry :'(
Team Yeagerists may have different meaning to some ppl. For me its probably people who are on Erens side and what he wants to achieve, despite some of the contradictory things he is doing. As people maybe believe it is necessary to achieve what he wants
It is time
If you put Eren in Gabi's position he will do the same, that's it. I have said this on Youtube before, people tend to ignore the fact that Reiner's mom has a huge impact over Gabi. Reiner's mom is obessed with being Honorable Marleyan. Her son is a warrior that made her proud, Gabi admires Reiner that much, and people don't see how much harder would Reiner's mom "Brainwashes" Gabi for her entire childhood? Besides Gabi and Eren are essentially same person. People who hated a character that much that even takes part in real life are just Nicolo in that restaurant scene, you gotta look deeper into the character and the enviorment, like what Sasha's father did. Maybe thats why Elders are more wisdom xD
From my limited experience, I think the Gabi hate has slowed down a bit especially compared to when episode 8 was airing. I remember gabi’s name was trending on Twitter for a week and people wanted to do things to her (too disturbing to say what), & if you actually go on YouTube…you’ll find a 3 million views video of Gabi getting beat on a 1 hour loop. It’s horrific. So I do think that the Gabi hate has died down a bit from that day…but it’s still there obviously.
I think a lot of people find it hard to separate a character from their actions, like this character did a bad thing, therefore they are a bad character and I don’t like them. Or in the reverse, people liked Walter White, and then later were still morally on his side despite his actions, because he was one they liked so he was good and remained good despite anything that came later. It’s like ‘Gabi did a bad thing, so the show is telling me she is bad and I hate her’.
Unparalleled Reactions
I love the legacy Sasha Braus leaves behind, The hearts she moved, and the shockwaves left by losing her. That eulogy-esque speech Mr. Braus gives brings me to tears
love how you guys are finding out and getting about this. you'd be baffled with how some people got out of AOT lmao hope you guys watch AOT junior high after s4 part 1! would be a great watch after this traumatizing season haha
I agree with you Lola. I don't understand the whole "Chad" Eren, or "sexy season 4" Eren being better than previous seasons Eren. Season 4 is like a whole test of how fucking sad can you get over Eren's character. I remember the first time I watched it I was SO upset over what he did and I was a lot less sympathetic towards his character than you are. I understand his struggle and how difficult of a mental state he was in, but I could never sympathize with his choice as an ADULT to wage war on behalf of all of paradise. Rewatching it now, I definitely have more sympathy for him but still, seeing the lovable, loyal, fighter Eren from previous seasons turn into THIS leaves such a bitter taste in my mouth and for that I can never get over my sadness over Eren's downfall.
Next episode you will pause ALOT
Blu-ray version is good.
I think the frustration with Gabi is that even after seeing for her own eyes the truth- That people on the Island are the same and not all devils. Her brainwashing is too deep and she refuses to adjust her views. Showing someone real evidence and them still refuse to believe it is annoying haha But understandable for a kid
You can say she's like Eren but Eren was never shown the truth until much later and when he was his views changed
Oh boy, here comes the pain 😅
I understand why there would be Yeagerists, with all the horrors Marley put Paradis through, but I just can't see eye to eye with them. Paradis has now the Beast Titan, the Founding Titan, the Colossal Titan, and the Rumbling. Even with Marley's remaining titans (hell even if Eren and co hadn't attacked) Paradis would have the clear advantage. At least assuming they could actually activate the rumbling. And if it weren't for Eren's intervention confirming his words, how the hell was Willy going to convince the world to invade? Some of them were getting slaughtered by Marley mere weeks earlier!
I'm pretty sure that was the gamble, as Magath mentioned, they knew there were spies inside the country, so they created a plan that involved baiting Paradis by creating a performance where there was a good amount of Marley's military brass, the warriors, and other officials.
I'd also suggest you just stick to the Blu Ray version!
don't watch fanmade, just stay with blu ray, these comments are bullshit.
Hah, it finally happened. First time ever, Lola stopped mid reaction. Next episode is looking at them like a demon
Just watch the normal version on CR don’t watch fanmade hahah
'Eren himself is not team Jaegerist' I love you girls
honestly sasha's dad establishes one of the main messages in this show and it's that as long as you venture into the "forest" you're subjected to killing or even being killed. And in that forest is a place where the cycle of war/violence continues and it's inevitable, you can't stop it, just like how animals instinctively eat each other and it's generally a dangerous place. the message was to prevent children from entering it, from teaching them right ways from wrong and preventing them from joining that world of violence. and it holds true throughout the series. the reality is violence is inevitable, war is inevitable, as long as the human race exists but it's the adult's responsibility to shoulder that burden and teach younger generations to stay away from that, to be less reactive and more logical. also ppl who hate gabi have a very VERY biased narrow minded point of view that levels with floch, ppl who refuse to understand complexities of characters and look at things objectively. team jeagerists are just floch supporters who THINK they're team eren bc they're not as intelligent as you lovelies and misinterpret his character GREATLY. it's why the fandom is very toxic, it's filled with facists, racists even anti-semetics and it's sick and twisted
Yeagerists are people who’ve willfully resigned themselves to an ignorant and negligent view of the story being told. Don’t allow yourselves to be tainted by that mentality
You’re wrong. The people who are yaegerists are those wanting to do everything possible to save paradis island. Should they be like armin or hange who want to talk things out?? Absolutely not, if enemies are coming to attack them then they need something to attack back with, that’s why the rumbling is the most powerful weapon in existence, because it is impossible to defeat 10 million colossal titans. There are always different sides to the story. If you are saying that following the yaegerists taints you then you are very naive
Stick to the bluray
Attack on Titan is such a perfect match for you guys and your channel. It's also enhanced my own appreciation of the show and story. Being able to empathize with all the characters is important to truly get the meaning of the show and you guys just get it in a way that a lot of others don't. It helps having the discussions and stopping to ask yourself why a character does what they do. Isayama is brilliant and everything is intended and it's just great to see other people who understand the show fully. ❤️
the jeagerist discussion is interesting, especially with the balkan background (crazy how much a story built ostensibly in reference to chinese and japanese relations resonates with so many other places in the world like the balkans, guess it's all just people no matter where you go :)) but i think you don't give the jeagerists enough credit: they aren't just obviously incorrect xenophobic caricatures, some part of them is reacting rationally to what is not just hypothetical but concrete impending doom. wily and the world declared war on them. they were coming to eradicate the island even without eren stepping in in liberio. though analogous to real life conflicts to a degree, this fact changes the dgeree to which you can just assert that they are morally compromised imo. are they meant to just lay down and die because there's fewer of them? that's sort of the central question of the conflict now. to what extent does the utilitarian justification for the rest of the world surviving override the ostensibly equal moral principle of paradis surviving.
I almost said I should be paying for this forgetting I do. Your content feels like an AOT after-show special. Keep up the good work as I am a reactor too and this really is top tier.
I feel you Kaya.
Also thank you for stating the “big picture” part. This is war. It’s hell and no death actually serves a big picture. Things may happen as a consequence of said death but that doesnt make them justified. “Until the price of our actions is paid even if beyond death” ~ Owl
The way Milena had her arms wrapped around herself during the scene when Niccolo is holding the knife up to Falco lolll
the ending song is actually about Eren 💔
Groundbreaking.
I understand gabi completely but i still hate her
The Gabi hatred is basically people not paying attention to the show. In a manner you could say this is the writer’s intent, that at first they (the audience) do get swept away with emotion when “our characters” experience loss or pain but then the audience should dial back when confronted with the reasons and the whole picture. Gabi literally says it here, which seems to be a direct line to the audience “People I cared about were killed by Sasha too”. And you know the funny thing is, Gabi is just the audience being shown the mirror. That “this” is what you all look like if you are just fervently sticking to a side. The kicker here is that even Gabi’s mental walls crumble after episode 11 and they are defo crumbling here, so it’s a wonder that the audience’s (the anti Gabi ones) isnt. Like literally Gabi seems to be more dimensional than some of the Gabi haters.
Exactly. Well said.
Will you be watching the s4 part 2 trailer after? I believe it came out a couple days ago
They should watch the Season 4 Part 1 trailer, the Season 4 Part 2 trailer is just a preview for episode 17/18, which I think is pretty unnecessary to watch and actually just spoils it.
I love literally everything about your conversation after the episode!!!!! <3 My feelings exactly, thank you for loving this story and these characters enough to truly understand and empathize with everyone. That's what allows the viewer to truly see the full tragedy of the big picture, and how it connects to our own cruel world lol. Crying right along with you both every week!!!
SAVE US MARLEY!!! :<
Y’all have me laughing out loud at your translations 😂. Also blue ray’s the way to go. 🤙🏽
kindness is good but rn paradise is out of time , for four years both hangi and armin didn't do anything, sometimes I think killing Erwin was genius , because none of this bs would happen on his watch if he was alive and zeke and yeagerist would never played them fool like this
I think Floch has one thing that both he and Eren has the same opinion on. They both see how urgent it is to act and that they don’t have time to wait and think but act now that I think Floch and Eren has in common. So Eren and Floch have the same opinion of how little time they can allowed to be wasted. Floch thinks Eren has the same goal as him and he sees Eren as Paradise’s only hope for victory and Eren as the one who should lead them.
lol who told you this episode was the calm before the storm Also "That fuckin 8-pack is built on trauma and tears!" is an all-time great line from this channel.
maybe they just said to watch the 2 episdoes together
this is the first time im hearing about a problem with the blueray, i bet its a minor thing that people are blowing out of proportion. please dont watch fanmade bullshit
I am any team but team Armin and Mikasa. Looking forward to episode 14 but mostly episode 15 and your thoughts on it.
By "team jaegerists" people are indeed referring to Floch's faction. They're named like that because they (nominally) follow Eren. But you're also right in saying we don't 100% know Eren's intentions, and how much they align with Floch's. Blu ray is totally fine.
When I first saw the season 4 intro I thought the scene of the soldiers marching emulated Marley, which seems to be inspired by the Nazi German marching under the Arc de Triumph. But with the context of what’s going on in the show, the soldiers/their uniforms actually look closer to Yeagerists. Maybe it’s just me but I enjoyed this re-contextualización
As a manga reader, I think there will be 12-14 episodes of the show for part 2 and I would be surprised if they do anything beyond that. No movie imo.
Rumours say that it will stop at 130 or 131 meaning just before the “event” in Marley and then a move will finish the series. If they don’t do a movie then I think 16 episodes again. If they do a movie then I think 12 episodes
guys, don t u think that when they rewacht the show, they should read the manga chapter 1?wit made some changes here and there
save manga for after everything ends IMO.
Yeagerists are basically people who sympathize with Floch´s mentality, either because they want to find a solution to the conflict to ensure their survival by means of the Rumbling (a genocide), because they look for revenge, or because of the way they want to portrait Eren as a savior. There are real people who side with this mindset.
I love love love how you understand this show and those characters girls.
I like how you call Levi “my boy” even though he’s nearly 40 haha
You guys should just watch the bluray like normal
Stick to the bluray. No fan made BS.
"the first time I remembered Floch was all of the scouts died except him... I don't know what that does to a person..." it is called 'survivors guilt', which is quite common in soldiers who experienced something like this. it usually involves people becoming emotionally unstable. it is often paired with PTSD. in Floch's case, he became emotionless.
"I don't know what that does to a person" is a figure of speech
Love how the big deaths arent just for shock factor, the consequences of sasha's death was written so well
Unless the people messaging you meant literal errors with the episode 14 and 16 files that you downloaded, the actual blu ray versions themselves are more than good enough to watch
Armin def in my top 3 characters, he’s gonna shine in the second half of the season
Also I don't see any issues to the Blu Ray release compared to the TV one. Only great improvement so I don't know what people are talking about...
I don't think there's much difference between the two versions, its mostly small things like some of the colors had their tones changed and some shadows/blurs were added (if I had to choose I would say the Blue-ray looks better)
So would you say this is as good as Breaking bad yet?
After watching this episode I really started appreciating first few episodes of Season 2 because when our characters in S2 go to the Utgaurd Castle they find wine there and they wonder how did these supplies got here. After this episode we connect that it was Zeke and the rest staying there. So good.
Please if have a way to you watch and post for patreon the episode 14 and 15 together, will be very good and makes total sense. Both of the episodes complete each other
Blu-Ray Team
Hmm, I think you are not entirely correct about Levi. Remember that he can be ruthless when the situation requires him to be. He did hurt and kill people, a lot of them. He's not some kind of pacifist, he just really hates WASTING lives. He maimed and tortured Sannes and he killed Kenny's people. In the manga, he was ruthless towards Historia (not a spoiler, that's something that should have already happened in season 3 part 1, but was cut out). He follows Erwin, because he believes in him. If Levi hadn't been willing to sacrifice lives, he never would have agreed to Erwin's plans. The scene with Zeke was not about Levi not agreeing with the "end justifies the means" attitude, he was pissed because Zeke didn't seem to have any regrets. Levi also does what he feels has to be done, even if it's cruel, but he always cares, he's never unfazed by it, always doubting whether he did the right thing. And that's what is so amazing about him. Remember what he said to Jean when Armin killed a person for the first time.
completely agree! Levi was super shocked over zeke's lack of remorse and empathy. Despite a cold exterior we've come to know that Levi has a lot of emotion inside, particularly regarding death.
you guys should react to episode 14 and 15 together then the last episode 16 by itself it will make more sense when u watch them.
I disagree I think they should do 1 each time from now on to process everything and savor it.
The caption, lmao
Oh boy next two episodes will kill you.
stick to the bluray version, i have no idea what those people meant it looks fine as always
Wait what? I've never read that the BD has problems with ep 14 and 15.....and I'm very into the fandom (I even read the toxic ones)
Lmao love the description of the post. I mean just the name of episode 14 says it all, can't wait...
HERE IT COMES!
no watch it blu-ray its better
Watch the Blu Ray version
Savagery is next and that’s like my favorite of this part of the season so excited
My fav episode this season is ep 15 probably not a popular opinion idk.
So close to my personal favourite episode, episode 15! great reaction and review as always!
Almost there!!
I don't think there's any issue really, just people overexaggerating. Can't wait to see your reaction to episode 14, it's gonna be an interesting one...
Watch the blurray
I think they are
Next episode will put Lola in a mental ward. Lol.
Not seen Blu ray version so don't know, stupid to comment really....
I personally think Armin is a bit useless in this season... I mean, what has he really done? For this we let Erwin die? I really liked Armin, but I don't think that this is his best season. Mikasa was always really boring to me. I don't really know how to describe her... She likes Eren and is a good fighter and then theres nothing else left. She is often presented as a good female character, i never understood why. So for me its Eren all the way.
IDK if you are a anime-only watcher or manga reader, so I will keep it vague as possible. The majority of Part One of the Final Season is mainly focusing on the new characters (Falco, Gabi, Niccolo, Yelena etc). And in Part Two (coming in Jan 2022), Armin will have A LOT to do, this part of the season is mainly (50 to 65%) focusing on the new characters b/c we had 3 whole seasons with Armin and the gang. So don't worry, Armin will do a lot in Part Two
Just watch crunchyroll version, it's not expensive and they will release the last season
Aot isn’t on Crunchyroll where they are
Stick to the version you're already watching. There's really no issue. People just overexaggerate and nitpick.
The changes people are mentioning, in my opinion, only enhance the episode so I would say to keep watching the blu ray version, no worries.
I don't know who told you that but definitely not 😂 watch the normal blu-ray version it's really good
Just stick to the blu ray. The problems people are talking about are barely noticeable for most people. It's just the people who are more bothered by key frames and stuff like that.
i have watched the bluray and the tv version comparisons and i can only see improvements in the blu ray. wtf are people talking
Wonder what would be the "problems" in those blu-ray episodes?
Don't worry about those changes, they are hardly noticeable unless you are looking at it frame by frame. Just continue with the version you are doing
Cant wait for the 15th episode.
they're gonna die 💀
Just keep watching the blu ray versions, You care about the story and the characters, not the animation. And the animation isn't that bad.
Please don’t die, there’s just 3 episodes more.
Idk why anyone would say watch a fanmade version but BLU RAY IS GOOD!! Watch the BluRay of ep 14 and 16!!
Fan-made animation, they're meaning? What, accompanying a fandub? Is that some alt-tactic of a spoiler, to ruin the experience? No. Let's not go with that.
People are exaggerating. The bluray is perfectly fine. You girls wouldnt even notice small animation differences. It's really not anything important for you.
YEEEEEEEEEEES IT'S HERE!!!
oh boy
