This is why I love rewatching this show through people's reactions to episodes. In 12:04 - Eren's right eye widens up after he hears "Because I was born into this world". Jon wouldn't understand why until later but DAMN that's an insane detail to put in!

[@ishaan863]

I always thought it was a reminder of his mother saying the same thing, back when Shaadis recalls himself sabotaging Eren's gear. An echo of his mother's worldview as opposed to his father's rage, like Shaadis described it.

[@cristianchavez527]

I thought the same thing!!! Never noticed that until now

[@BWright93096]

I noticed that this time as well, there's so much to go back and catch in this series it's crazy. There are so many times where the show flat out tells you what's going to happen in the future, but you would never know out of context

[@anthonygranado60]

This is the exact reason why I'm not a fan of the dub. In s4 e19 (Two Brothers, if I remember correctly) Eren doesn't say, "Because I was born into this world." in the dubbed version. This is not the only thing that is changed or done poorly, but it's an example that everyone who understands the story telling of this show should understand. People like to whine about sub watchers not likeing the dub. It's not the superficial argument people try to make it out to be. The dub just does not tell the story.

[@DUHVlNE]

@@anthonygranado60 another one that pissed me off with the dub is in Season 2, when Bertholdt gets told by Armin that Annie is underground being tortured(she wasnt), he says "You Hellspawn", which is does not contribute to the "devils" line that gets hinted continuously, while also at the same time not even sounding like ordinary speech either, so it feels so far off of what I would expect to be said. Yes if you want to TRY and argue that its similar you can, but I'd argue its not similar enough to calling them devils, to the point where it no longer adds a hint of the bigger story.

"is anybody in the right?" that commentary was extraordinary. Been with you since the birth of your music reactions channel and vids and you always have insightful stuff to say. thank you

[@kamo124]

4x05 is the peak. The whole parallels with the guy from the flashback that hunged himself (after telling everyone about him running away from titans and letting his family die)cause he wanted to be judged just like Reiner. Reiner begging to be killed while Wylly outside says "but i dont wanna die.....cause i was born into this world". Its just too good.

[@chestty455]

Eren being the aggressor of a terrorist attack after being on the receiving end of one as a child perfectly portrays to me the cycle of violence that we see in children whose countries are bombed and grow up to join militant groups. Extremism should not be surprising from someone like Eren when given the power they have. On the receiving end of the violence, children like Gabi are just another link in the chain.

[@moiseman]

He's not the agressor though, he's literally responding to a declaration of war. AND he's targeting military higher ups.

[@chestty455]

@@moiseman I mean by aggressor, that he's committing the attack instead of being on the receiving end. And he still killed civilians. He could have transformed in the street beside and attacked the officers from there, but he decided to kill everyone in the building above him and the resulting building falling on people in the crowd. And the stampede, which is he responsible for, injured and killed civilians too. I understand why he's doing it, but that doesn't make it not a terroristic action.

[@nighthawk2548]

@@chestty455 He had to attack from underneath to make sure he could kill Willy before he had the chance to transform. He wasn't sure which member of the Tybur family had the warhammer titan so leaving him alive for even a few seconds wasn't an option. Besides Marley was using their own civilians as human shields so it's not like there was any way to avoid casualties.

[@chestty455]

@@nighthawk2548 If Willy had the War Hammer, he had time to quickly transform before he was eaten if he wasn't impacted by shock. Him transforming behind him instead of to the side had no impact as far as my understanding of the layout of the square and stage is. The only good reason I can see for going through the building was to avoid as many guards as possible so to use the cellar room. I think Eren could have found another spot, but had no motivation to. Yes, Marley was using their civilian population as shields, but that doesn't take away that Eren still chose to act - which led to their deaths. The Marleyan's aren't blameless, but that doesn't take away from my point that Eren initiated this attack and is by all means a terrorist.

[@mithvibes4727]

@@nighthawk2548 you cant defend a terrorist attack on civilians by saying "well the country treats their people bad anyways" that's a horrible justification .

I think only every maybe 10 years or so we get a really really good anime. Sure there are other good anime like Demon slayer, JJK, etc. But a really GOOD one is rare. An anime with very good plot, twists, lore, acting, character development, no bullshit, no fanservice, no stupid questions, no overexplaining. Just a pure SHOW.

[@edot7266]

JJK generally is that good. Not as deep as AOT but really really good.

[@fueledbyproblems_]

i think it was Porco's first time seeing the scout's power since the last marleyan jaw titan ended up eaten by Ymir, that's why he's questioning a mere human can go against a titan when his whole life he's been fighting canons and machines

[@smith22041]

Not to mention that Marley relied too heavily on the power of the titans, while at the same time inadvertently and unknowingly training a force to kill titans.

@@smith22041 yeahh, i just think that he was just used to fought against heavy machinery rather than an actual human swinging. Definitely one of the powerful scene

I have rewatched this entire series over a dozen times now, at _least_ and the reason I still love watching it again and again (and SPECIFICALLY watching it through reactors and with other people) is because I Am Still Learning Things. It's amazing. I can't believe how amazing it is sometimes. I love learning and I love seeing things in a new light and the ability that This show has to be seen differently by so many eyes and to give those different perspectives a voice that others then get to _hear_ is so wonderful to me. I never get tired of listening to what someone has learned from this show, because they always manage to take away at least _one_ thing differently from me and from everyone else and it's amazing.

[@GIRTHYANDITCURVES]

One of the best episodes of the series. Right next to the first titan battles in the 1st and 3rd seasons

[@spinningredchair8092]

The shot of Eren being impaled by the War Hammer from a distance is one of my favorite in the entire show. Imagine a normal day in Marley for the average Joe. Suddenly there's this large boom and you look in the distance and see a towering spike with not just a Titan impaled on it, but THE ATTACK TITAN.

[@AZ-ph4fs]

The cool thing about this show is that it makes you think a lot. Especially on the ethical side of things since technically there's no right or wrong. It perfectly captures the fickle nature of humans. You could argue Eren is the good guy, but at the same time, you could argue Bertholt and Reiner were the good guys since they believed they were saving "their" world.

[@merzhoykin]

they should of named this episode "Anime's unspoken code broken"

[@originalrkmorton]

Porco realizing the strength of the Scout Regiment will never not give ya shivers. And 21:59 hits so much harder with full context of the show and realizing Mikasa isn't who he's even talking to

[@AfnanAdnan.]

Who is he talking to

[@zakwankhidzir]

​@@AfnanAdnan.I hope Jon doesn't read this to avoid spoilers. I'm not sure how far he is. Ever since Eren kissed Historia's hand, he saw future memories of him including the one where he will/was manipulating his father to kill Reiss's family. It is safe to assume that Eren saw this moment will come to. So technically, Eren was not talking to Mikasa. She won't be able to hear it. But it is more of him confirming the future that is going to happen. It's like how we all are excitingly rewatching titan shifter transformation because we have all watched this show once and we are cheering for things that are going to happen. Eren's laughing at Sasha's death after asking Connie what was her last word was another example of it. He knows the future is going to happen and it's all like a joke to him. I highly suggest watching The Watchmen movie to understand this better. It is eerie similar to how The Comedians laugh. Isayama actually took some inspiration from it.

I think while eren talking to reiner about how all the people same, he wasn't planning to turn into titan. they both understood each other and eren was ready to end it in peace. the line that Willy said "bc I born in this world" reminded him what he came here for. after that the way Willy continues his speech, eren smiled which gave eren a reason to continue to fight till he destroy his enemies.

"Stealth is optional" 12:40

[@farteater7639]

Sorry for the long post... I've been watching the reaction videos to this story and have been wondering why so many people think Eren is a "terrorist"? Starting from a history covered with lies, Eldia was framed, met with discrimination, and even had her sister brutally murdered for no reason, as if that scene was a daily occurrence. The history of the　Paradis island has continued for several hundred years, and tens of millions of people have actually been killed because of the fabricated history. In addition, it is assumed that the man-eating giants were not naturally generated on the island, but were sent to the island by ship, and hundreds and thousands of people were devoured and killed by the fabricated history. They have continued to be treated inhumanely for their false history to the point that there is no way to atone for it in this world. And did Eren actions look like terrorism because women and children happened to be shown as victims in the scene shown? I can't imagine letting a dog devour my sister through fabricated history. And the most decisive thing is the declaration of war.... It was Marley's declaration to Erdia that the whole world would join together to exterminate the people of the Paradis-island, but Marley was the one who declared war, and Erdia was the one who was attacked. So, you are saying that war has been declared, and now we are going to go to war and annihilate them, but you are not allowed to fight back, and that is considered an act of terrorism? Why do so many people think so?

[@BboyTechie]

Declaration of War probably the best episode of season 4.part 1. The convo between eren and reiner intertwined with Tiburs speech. Honestly it might be the best episode of the whole series

The best part is as you progress to the end of the show you realise that Eren was *never* the hero of the story. He led the titan that ate his mum to her. He made that happen so everything would turn out the way he wanted. Its a self fulfilling prophecy.

[@DudeNamedDude1776]

Man this shit is great and some of the best of AoT BUT I CANNOT WAIT FOR YOU TO GET INTO THE LATER PARTS OF THIS SEASON. This shit is gonna blow your mother fuckin mind bro

[@lmao7183]

14:28 "Did he know he was going to his death?" The answer is yes. It is foreshadowed by the fact that his entourage was made up of his family and religious people. He was spending his last days with those he loved and seeking to find spiritual and emotional peace before he set out to do what he was going to do. Of which his plan was to bait out Eren into attacking him and thus providing justification for a global alliance to be formed to declare war on the people of Paradis but also demonstrating that "Good Marley Eldians" would side with humanity versus the "devils" of Paradis. Now how did he know Eren was in Marley? That's left up to the viewer to figure out but IMHO a reasonable assumption is that Tybur's people probably intercepted a letter, or letters, sent out by Eren from the interment area. Of course I don't think Eren was dumb enough to write plainly about his intentions to his comrades but I'm guessing that Tybur's people put the pieces together enough to figure out that Eren was in Marley and planning something big himself.

Wow

That's not terrorism, that's just good old war, with marleyans being the aggressors. Though at the beginning of the show, that was definitely a terrorist attack.
