Attack On Titan In a Nutshell (Seasons 1-3)

The Final Season, Season 4 of Attack on Titan is just around the corner, but what if you can't remember all the twist and turns Eren, Mikasa and Armin have been through? well don't worry boys because this video covers from Levi to Rod Reiss and from the Founding Titan to Potato Girl (Sasha my favourite character). Join me as we recap seasons 1, 2 and 3 in one big, as-quick-as possible summary.
For those who aren't aware Attack on Titan is a Japanese anime where humanity has retreated behind three large walls due to an outbreak of giant humanoid creatures called titans.
(This is a review / summary video so obviously there are SPOILERS in this video. Don't watch if you plan on watching Attack on Titan in the future)

Seen a lot of people saying I pronounced the name 'Reiss' wrong, apparently you can pronounce it a couple different ways but the main way to pronounce in the UK is the German way which sounds like 'Rice'. Either way I think both pronunciations are fine :)

11:58 correction. Riener wasn't aware that he was the co-ordinator. He wanted to take back eren because he just wanted the attack titan. It is in this scene that riener realised that eren has both attack titan and founding titan.

[@QQOF]

So the whole point for Reiner and Bertholdt being in Paradis in the first place WAS to take te attack titan? If so, they didn’t know who had it right?

"Bertholdt become large and 3D"

[@danielmunoz1275]

Actually, Eren already knew as well as everyone else that Reiner and Bert were Titan shifters, they're plan was to act as if they didn't know and capture them. That's why Eren acted as if Reiner was joking when he revealed himself.

[@jiminjamboree]

I kind of remember this part. Do you mind explaining it more?

[@danielmunoz1275]

@@jiminjamboree Basically, Reiner straight out tells Eren that they're the Armored and Colosal Titans, and that if he came with them willingly there wouldn't be any more reason for them to break the walls, at that moment Eren says to himself "I have had a lot in my mind since yesterday". Eren remembers that Sasha brought back the background report from the scouts generation of Eren and the others, Hange saw that Annie, Bertholdt, and Reiner came from the same place, so it was likely that if Annie was a Titan shifter, Reiner and Bertholdt would be as well. Eren doubts this, but then Armin figures out that Reiner acted suspicious when fighting the Female Titan, and that she ran in the direction where Eren was right after Reiner escaped from her hand, probably writing a message on her hand with the blades. Hange finally gives the order to act normally and lure Reiner and Bertholdt inside one of their HQ and capture them by surprise. That's why in that scene everyone acted so weird, because they figured they were titan shifters, so they kept their guard up while trying to act normal in case Reiner and Bertholdt tried to do something.
